Shibuya Akari - Remaking Tanukana's Viral E-Sports Scandal! Original Star Confirms the Spot-On Accuracy!
After the new AV law came into effect, the production of parody AVs that imitate celebrities or famous events has dropped significantly. However, at the beginning of the year, "SOD" boldly targeted the adorable e-sports player "Tanukana," who had previously gone viral for her statement "Men under 170 cm have no human rights" and even got dropped from her contract. They turned this well-known event, which was heavily criticized by netizens at the time, into their theme, and sure enough, the work shot straight to the top of the hot search lists as soon as it was released!
At 23 years old, defying her parents' objections, Tanukana quit her original job to become Japan's second female e-sports player. In a game livestream in February 2022, while sharing her experience of being hit on by a delivery person, she casually remarked "Men under 170 cm have no human rights," which sparked massive backlash! Not only was she slammed by netizens, but she was also fired by her then-affiliated e-sports team "CYCLOPS athlete gaming." After a year of laying low, she returned to streaming on Twitch. Even after the controversy that forced her to pause her activities, Tanukana's straightforward and sharp-tongued style only boosted her popularity further, and the weekly magazine "YOUNG MAGAZINE" recognized her talent for stirring up buzz, inviting her to shoot sexy gravure photos unveiling her voluptuous F-cup figure.
It's almost been 2 years since Tanukana's controversy ~ Who would've thought "SOD" would release her parody AV out of the blue at the start of the year? From the cover directly recreating the gravure photos she took for the magazine, to the plot mentioning a cute game streamer going viral due to inappropriate comments in a livestream, it's impossible not to think of Tanukana. The storyline is straightforward and clear, basically satisfying all the short-statured men she offended. The actress playing Tanukana gets followed home by an unknown short male YouTuber during an outdoor livestream, and he forces the broadcast of her being violated, ultimately leading to her being creampied after merciless humiliation... It's like finally letting those short guys vent their pent-up grudge!
This work features "SOD" newcomer Akari Shibuya (Julie Shibuya). Interestingly, Tanukana herself publicly praised the parody AV's accuracy in her livestream, saying it made her feel the producers' love (lol). But she did have a small complaint about the actress apparently only having a C-cup, since she herself boasts an F-cup bust. She also pointed out that, as someone from Tokushima, she speaks in the Awa dialect, not the Kansai dialect as listed in the title. Still, given her usual outspoken and fiery personality, I expected her to drop some harsh comments on the parody AV, but surprisingly, it turned out to be positive feedback!
