To be honest, when deciding on the actresses for this year's TRE Taipei International Adult Exhibition, the first thing we decided on wasn't who would get a gold card, but rather inviting Yoshikawa Aimi to come to Taiwan again!
Actually, there's no real secret: First, we needed to maintain our relationship with her agency. After Akiyama Shoko confirmed she couldn't attend the event, her agency, "ACT," only had Yoshikawa Aimi left. Second, Yoshikawa Aimi is really useful. Although she's gained some weight compared to last year, her breasts are even more impressive, and she's very good at creating a good effect. Plus, she's quite famous, so inviting her wasn't difficult for us.
This also means Yoshikawa is coming to Taiwan for the third time to participate in an adult expo. However, there's one problem that's giving us a headache: should Yoshikawa Aimi be a gold or silver card holder?
Personally, I advocate for the silver card. Firstly, Yoshikawa Aimi's presence has diminished somewhat this past year. Although her manager repeatedly emphasizes that "she's in high demand" and "she has to film 10 movies a month," it's a fact that people frequently ask if she's retired. Secondly, the silver card includes two top performers, Shiina Sora and Yamagishi Aika. I personally feel that one is nominated for the DMM Adult Awards' Best Actress, and the other is a candidate for Best Newcomer. Placing Yoshikawa, a veteran who isn't an exclusive actress, above them seems inappropriate…

So the final decision was to put Yoshikawa Aimi at the top of the silver card and invite her to be the main character in the preliminary promotion, coming to Taiwan in July with Shiina Sora:
Although the agency didn't have much of an opinion, I've been very concerned. This is the first time in three adult expos that I haven't been the main character in the promotion. Will Yoshikawa Aimi be bothered by this?
Thankfully, she didn't seem to care about the rankings at all during the three-day event, which was a relief. She was also very funny; while other actresses were checking their phones on Twitter or Instagram during breaks, she would sneak into the dressing rooms of Taiwanese influencers to take photos with them, and even told me how pretty "Sprite" was!
Then she and Sprite became good friends. Finally, on the day she left Taiwan, her suitcases were practically bursting with bags and packages, and I initially thought she had received many gifts from fans or bought a lot of souvenirs. It wasn't until she returned to Japan that I found out what was in her suitcases:
Sprite body pillows! And her dog absolutely adores her XD
I absolutely adore Yoshikawa Aimi, and since she's currently studying Chinese at her own expense, as long as she doesn't quit, I think the chances of seeing her next year are pretty high~
