This contributes to why and how JAV has rescued me from what is often a wasteland of Western adult video. This and also the understated yet classy clothing Japanese women wear (This should not go unnoticed, yes, weird I am!!).
Even after reading this, I cannot fathom why it would matter. Seems a bit like asking if a department store should sell hot dogs. I'm watching to see good acting of a sexual nature. I don't care if you're also the director, or the janitor, for that matter. If you can do a decent job acting out a sex scene, why not? Perhaps it saves the cost of another actor. Perhaps it adds an element not otherwise available or even planned necessarily. Actors, as far as I know, are not part of the casting department. I'd be surprised if any actor had a contract clause allowing them to veto certain actors. They are paid to perform with the acting staff provided by the studio and director. The "legitimate" film world has directors performing acting roles in their own movies commonly. It's not unusual for an actor to transition to directing and to play a role in movies he or she directs --- best known would be Clint Eastwood. There's an idea for a creative studio --- get Clint Eastwood to direct and perform in a JAV! Then we'll have a good reason to talk about directors performing in their films.

Thanks, nicely done!
I'd watch that Himari for the costuming alone!
