Recently, several gambling gods have arrived in this industry.
Okay, strictly speaking, they're not high-achieving players, but they play cards very seriously—for example, "Sanmiya Tsubaki," who debuted exclusively with S1, is not only an AV actress but also a Texas Hold'em player. She even registered a new Twitter account for this (https://twitter.com/tsubaki_poker_):
Although she plays a masochistic office lady in her films, she's a fierce player at the poker table. And she's not the only one who enjoys Texas Hold'em; she gained an advantage in the SOD Magic Mirror 25th anniversary poll and is now in the sub-brand KIREI... SOD's 37-year-old married woman, "Arisa," was originally conceived as a village girl who wanted to build a ranch in the mountains. She could chop wood and milk cows. However, with the release of her new film, she has gained another identity: "Poker Pro."

[load-images/fanke/uploads-cm-c/2025-05-29/d3976b6b42cc0496311f21552857cde0.jpg]Damn, this new identity doesn't really match her old one. SOD's penchant for stacking actress personas isn't new, but maybe I'm just being picky. Arisa wanting to open a ranch in the countryside is quite unique, but adding the professional poker player element feels a bit off. It feels somewhat chaotic. Is she supposed to be someone who grew up in the countryside, wants to own a ranch, and is also a professional Texas Hold'em player?
Oh, right, she's also a wife and has a child!
Aren't there too many settings and some inconsistencies? And don't think I'm going to draw a conclusion. There's a third actress who enjoys playing Texas Hold'em: Tsujii Honoka, known as the "Snake Princess":

Most people probably just think she's promiscuous and that she spends her free time in brothels, right? But judging from her Twitter feed, Tsujii Honoka's interest in poker might far exceed her interest in the sex industry. I wonder if her skills at the table are better than her skills in bed?
Finally, please refer to the Texas Hold'em Wikipedia entry. I don't think these actresses would gamble themselves into bankruptcy...
