She was once the top star of the Mosquitocidal Society, using her slender figure as a weapon to stay active in the industry, and even snagged first place in DMM's annual comprehensive works ranking. She's the one with countless awards and fans—Saori Minami. The most surprising thing is that when Saori Minami debuted, she was a D cup, but by the time she retired, she'd upgraded to an F. Isn't that weird? You'd definitely be curious, so make sure to read till the end, okay~ Saori Minami was born in 1993 and debuted at just 18 years old in 2012 as an exclusive goddess for the Mosquitocidal Society. At the time, not much was expected of her, even though she had a sweet face, a slim body, and a D cup that wasn't too small. But honestly, in the industry, you can find a bunch of girls like that, and the results proved it—her first work didn't sell well. But miraculously, her second one became a hit for some reason, with super high reviews. You have to know that while the Mosquitocidal Society is a big studio, they mainly focus on solo and amateur shoots. The reason is simple: they don't have the resources like S1 or SOD, so the girls they pick to be exclusive goddesses are carefully selected. In the end, Saori Minami didn't disappoint them. Not only did her works sell steadily, but she was also incredibly hardworking. Most goddesses release just one work a month, but she managed 2-3, making her a real workhorse among the exclusives. Before debuting, Saori Minami was a student at a beauty academy. Apparently, she started as an adult film actress with a part-time job mindset and was really scared of her identity being exposed. After debuting, she even imposed a ban on herself, like "no going to bars to drink," just to avoid people around her finding out she was in the adult industry. But in the end, she had to choose between her beauty work and filming, and as her resolve to be an adult actress grew stronger, she lifted the ban herself. Once she stopped hiding, Saori Minami became super active, her popularity soared, and she even joined the sexy idol group PINKEY. But because of this carefree participation in activities, an accident happened, which directly led to her taking a three-month break. This break was apparently due to her identity being exposed, but not by her parents—it was her stepbrother who found out. Afterward, of course, she had to persuade him not to tell their parents. But don't ask me how the stepbrother learned she was an adult actress, and definitely don't ask if he used it to pressure her into anything you might be thinking. In the end, Saori Minami took the initiative to confess her adult career to her parents. They were naturally shocked and totally against it, but because of her determination and persistence, even though they didn't agree, they said, "Well, you're 20 now, so you can decide for yourself." Finally, after that three-month hiatus, Saori Minami returned to the public eye. Even in such a tough situation, she still won first place in the 2013 DMM Annual Comprehensive Works Ranking, which includes all types of video works, not just adult ones—in fact, those are hard to even get into the list. So, for her to take that award was a huge achievement. Plus, in 2014, she won the DMM Most Outstanding Goddess Award and was selected as the image ambassador for AV OPEN that year. These accomplishments made her career in the industry smooth sailing. By 2018, she had been with the Mosquitocidal Society for five years straight, making her their top-tier goddess. But with the constant turnover of actresses and increasing competition, she started thinking about retiring, so she decided to switch to S1 as an exclusive, like a "final sprint." She thought a bigger stage would let her shine, but shortly after joining S1, the Mosquitocidal Society got hit by a hacker attack, and a bunch of master tapes were stolen, including hers... Who knows if it's fate playing tricks or the company being shady... This incident was undoubtedly a huge blow to Saori Minami; she even posted on Twitter that "I suffered for four hours." A lot of people think: since the videos were already shot, what's the big deal about mosaics or not? If the uncensored versions leak, it's just benefiting everyone, right? But I have to say, that's a irresponsible way of thinking. First, if uncensored stuff leaks, they don't get a penny from it, and having to be exposed like that without any compensation—who could stand it? Second, and most importantly, for many actresses, that thin mosaic is what maintains their last bit of dignity. Perhaps because of this leak incident, Saori Minami became even more determined to retire, and on January 1, 2019, she announced her retirement.
