Japan’s top porn megasite, forex trading site, car renter and KanKore creator DMM has formally announced its full scale English language porn site in the form of R18.com, due to launch in the spring with their entire catalogue of adult videos, ero-manga and doujinshi, finally providing a centralised legal avenue for barbarian access to all the nation’s “squealing schoolgirl rape porn” and gorgeous ero-manga.
DMM’s official announcement of the R18.com launch gives some inkling into just how enormous the Japanese porn industry is and how big a part of it DMM is:
The new website will have a large collection of Japanese adult videos online which will be easily accessible through a streamlined marketplace and a feature-rich search engine.
Their current catalog of Japanese movies, compromising over 220,000 videos, will be published to the R18.com service.
The site will launch with approximately 150,000 videos and will be expanded to 200,000 videos within 3 months.
In addition to hundreds of categories of movies and 5,000 hentai comics will be available for release along with an exclusive selection of fully localized hentai comics.
Their official blog is a little more lively in its description of just what this means for AV aficionados:
When it launches R18.com will be the largest English language Japanese adult site on the net. How big? First you have to consider the Japanese adult industry at large.
It’s hard to wrap my head around the concept of how much Japanese porn is available any minute, of any day, and even harder to try and explain it to someone else.
I imagine it would be like trying to count the number of TV shows that have ever been released in the US since the 1950′s; would you include a list by channel? Type? Length? Season? Once you start factoring all those things in, it gets pretty crazy!
By my last count, we had 796 different production companies that will sell their products through R18.com.
Of that number, 72 of those companies are our own productions. These aren’t your small production companies, they are the largest producers of Japanese AV. Big names such as E-Body, S1, Moodyz, Madonna, Attackers, Kira*Kira, Muteki, Bi, kawaii, Idea Pocket, and the list goes on and on.
This allows our site to have an unprecedented amount of new movies and content added every month, unmatched anywhere else.
We add over 2,000 new movies to our site every month, 2,000!!! If I quit my job and did nothing but sleep and watch porn, I still would not be able to watch all those in a year.
Not only do we release a lot of new content every month, but these are not short 5 minute clips uploaded to your average Tubesite. We are talking feature length adult films, 120 minutes or more! In fact, most of the movies I come across are a ridiculous 3 to 6 hours long!
What the press releases are understandably coy about mentioning is the possible Achilles’s heel of the service – as DMM was apparently unable to secure an understanding with police or a sufficiently convincing degree of separation via an overseas subsidiary, all the titles will be presented in all their original mosaiced glory.
There is also still no word on overseas access to or localisation of DMM’s burgeoning collection of games – Kantai Collection foremost among them – although the vast AV selection on offer seems likely to keep all but the most 3D hating busy for months if not years to come.

Since its selling outside japan, they should all uncensor it
More like since it will be hosted on a foreign server, which Japan has no territorial connection to, it should be all uncensored.
Wouldn't that mean that people who have censored laws would just be able to view also?
So? The law only forbids selling uncensored porn, not viewing or possesing it.
And since they're not selling it in Japan, I don't see where's the problem.
Japan s porn should just stay censored.
I prefer big European dicks.
"It’s hard to wrap my head around the concept of how much Japanese porn is available any minute, of any day, and even harder to try and explain it to someone else."
Technically, JAV porn is already everywhere. All DMM did was allowing us to finally pay for it.
...Though I imagine some people will find it hard to wrap their head around the concept of paying for censored porn.
This site apparently has better porn than other sites, so some may find it worthwhile.
Wait, wait... wait...
Paying? For porn?
... why?
Some places are worth it. That's how they're able to stay in business and keep making things you like.
"Paying for games? why?"
"paying for movies? why?"
"paying for music? why?"
Because with out money from someone their products will cease to exist.
RIP Songa.
Do research, only old people and those who have no idea what internet is buy porn. Oh and women.
Yeah, that's why it's an industry that makes more money than hollywood...
JAV is everywhere but waay too fragmented.
What DMM basically did was become the (premium) Spotify for JAV. Would be nice if they can playback their whole library on tablets/smartphones like the Galaxy Note 3 in 1080p AMOLED screen in color-accurate mode (movie setting) http://www.displaymate.com/Galaxy_Note3_ShootOut_1.htm
Can beat off without having color-accuracy nipples.
what's awesome is theres a shit load of fetish different fitish for everyone.
Wow. Nice butts.
BANG BANGGG
violence is not the answer
Humping is.
ADIDAS
Love me some Oshiri
I`d really appreciate to know the name of these girls.
Japan, where you can have any sort of depraved sex as long as no penises or vaginas are shown.
when we already have many sites like javplus.com/, who really needs this shit? Especially shit you need to pay for?
BLESS YOU!!!! :)
They be making a killing if they get to have uncensored version of JAVs on the oversea pages.
But with the way it is now, I highly doubt there be anybody actually interested.
why would you pay to watch porn?
Well, I try to pay for and legitimately obtain whatever I like enough to want to support, but that usually isn't really "porn" (besides the few english eroge and hentai anime/manga that I've bought).
The only way this will succeed is if they uncensor it. I can get all I want but censored. Id pay to have a few that I really like in uncensored glory. That would be the proper marketing. No red blooded american watches or would pay for cencored japanese porn.
So, it will be pay to access kind of thing? Yeah.. no... I ain't paying for something that's readily available almost everywhere for free...
You'll be surprised how much stuff doesn't make it to torrent/streaming sites. Of course, we're talking about the more much, hardcore fetishes.
Yes.
Only a tiny proportion of what I like ever makes it onto the pirate web.
The people who think you can get everything for free are probably into consensual sex in the missionary position.
@21:03 - I second that sarcastic comment... very much. I'll also throw in an added wink-nudge combo or a eye-roll and groan combo, your choice.
I think the only kind of porn you can't get for free on the internet is child porn. Though, I never searched for it anyway.
Yeah, we aren't freaks if that's what you mean.
@Chen
Of 'course you haven't.
Now the question is, will it be subbed?
Coalgirls get on this!
Awesome. I'm so used to the mosaic that it really is a non-issue personally, but I get why people hate it. I'm curious to see if they exclude any of the more extreme content. I hope not. Anyways, finding downloads for "old" (3+ years) titles is a huge pain. I wouldn't mind paying for them.
I gotten used to censoring in 2D (hentai), nonetheless I still hate it. That being said, I will never, under any circumstance, watch live porn while it's censored.
Furthermore, while I'm not particularly interested in Japanese models, there's plenty of JAV out there that's not censored too.
Maybe japanese cannot get off without mosaic geez,
Advertising for adult, meant for adult and yet mosaic.
So let me understand this: the 5,000 hentai comics only refers to comics with original characters or do they also include the parody doujinshis? If so, are there options to purchase physical copies or just digital copies? I ask because ever since the Earthquake/Tsunami/Nuclear, I've made it a hobby to collecting doujinshis in the physical forma: artists from Black Dog to Saigado & everyone in between, I've collected over a hundred titles and even got lucky in getting some of the rarest titles like 2 of Studio TAMO'S Digimon titles & even Takashita-ya's Ranma books.
(>﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏<)
"It's not a problem until they stop making them", but even if that happened I'm sure that people will just move on to something else. Not like much was expected considering the other comments here, at least it's better than those who try to justify it.
>we want you to pay for something that you can get for free
lol no
if it's the free from japan ridiculous genital only censorship i might consider it
There's an AV actress called Kaori who has her faced censored for some reason, but is an N cup bra size in Japan. Her name is simply Kaori, worth checking out lol.
Thanks, I'll get right on it.
Unless they uncensor this shit, I'll continue with my CaribbeanCom, 1pondo, Heyzo, 10musume and Pacopacomama downloads thank you.
I've never paid for porn other than a doujinshi I jokingly bought at Otakon. HOWEVER I'm willing to pay if they have my fetish, it's not that special but together it feels hard to come by pirate means (or not good quality on streaming) which is Japanese Anal or Asian Anal uncensored. I'd be willing to pay up to $10 but I know most premium sites charge $30 a month but if anyone can recommend good quality Asian/Japanese Anal uncensored for free or cheap, I'd love to hear suggestions. Thanks.
Everything still censored huh? Not worth anyone's time.
paid porn ?
