Gravure idol, actress and occasional seiyuu Ai Takabe has been arrested for cocaine possession, shocking the more naive of her otaku followers.
The 27-year-old Ai Takabe was initially arrested for cocaine possession after police found it at her home during a search (prompted by what exactly is not clear), charges she denies claiming “a friend just left it there.”
Police claim her urine also tested positive for traces of the drug, and apparently intend to charge with using it as well.
Takabe’s seiyuu work only encompassed a few roles, though her most recognizable would likely be Kill Me Baby’s Agiri.
The model had also participated in numerous TV dramas, but her most notable achievements are from her modeling work, earning the Gravure-sho (Pin-up award) at the All-Japan National Beautiful Girl Contest back in 2004.
Her 2013 appearance on an adult variety TV show where she helped frigid girls to orgasm with the aid of a personal massage device signaled her career to be in the doldrums.
The agency associated with Takabe supportively cancelled her contract and deleted her from its site, presumably spelling the end of her career should she not turn to AV…
1. Started gravure modeling in her teens.
2. Moved on to T.V. dramas & anime.
3. By around 25 her career starts to wind down.
4. Does a show about gettin’ girls off with vibrators.
5. Gets busted for drug possession & use @ 27 due to a “mysterious” police search.
6. Talent agency drops her & erases her internet presence.
The signs are clear. This is a set-up for her porn career — possibly under an assumed name. This actually seems to follow the “plot” — sort of — of more than a few hentai manga.
“she helped frigid girls to orgasm with the aid of a personal massage device”
What is the name of that show? Video or it didn’t happen!
Japanese TV has gotten even better since I left. Didn’t know that Japaneses girls were now having orgasms.
Found it, she was in the show with the notorious
“The Woman Who Will Not Cum vs The Vibrator That Will Make Any Woman Cum” contest

It’s 徳井義実のチャックおろさせて～や, the show that brought us the TEKOKI KARAOKE, PERO PERO HOUSE, the orgasm challenges (AV actor vs. gay blowjob specialist and AV actress vs. super-vibrator) and other nice things…
Get her over here, in the UK we don’t give a flying f♥♥k about s♥♥t like this, if she has a talent she a little thing like possession would not stop her career from growing.
I DO COCAINE
It’s really a shame since she was a great voice actor, but when you’ve been caught doing drugs, it’s hard to sympathize. It doesn’t matter who you are, if you mess up, you’re going to have to pay the price.
