What a surprising retirement video!
Surprising about what? It's not because "Kotoi Shiori" has retired. In fact, given her recent release schedule, her inactivity on Twitter for over two months, the near-complete deletion of her posts, the explosion of her Instagram account, and her disappearance from the list of attendees at a striptease show, this actress seemed to have vanished into thin air. It's unexpected that she would release such a farewell video on her third anniversary...
Her agency treated her well! The production company is doing her a favor!
's presence is definitely fading:<br/><br/>This isn't entirely her fault, because the AV industry is cruel. Although my Sharingan thinks that the early Kotoi Shiori was practically a second Mihiro—that pretty, cute face, that charming smile, even their reactions in bed were almost identical—she didn't dominate the AV industry for as long as Mihiro did, despite debuting with the top studio S1. After six releases, she seemed to lose momentum, and despite her agency's constant efforts to prolong her career, it still... Inevitably, she gradually became marginalized, and in the end, she could only release her farewell work on the third anniversary of her debut...<br/><br/>[[img:///media/upload-images/fanke/uploads-cm-c/2025-05-29/092edacb6408cebf89541dbc3988f175.jpg)
But this retirement work of hers is really good. First, the production company is Kawaii*, which is at least a 1.5-tier company in the industry, so the visibility is sufficient; second, this "retirement"... Unlike some friends' expectations for a retirement video where the actress is expected to be overshadowed, Kawaii* arranged for Kotoi Shiori and actor Iseton Uchimura to film themselves like a couple in a hotel room (of course, the director and other photographers were also present). Because it was a one-on-one interaction throughout, Kotoi Shiori was very relaxed. She not only explained her reasons for retiring, but also couldn't help but cry at the end of the performance:
"Sigh, baby, I'm sad too, but there's nothing I can do. It's time to say goodbye~"
This is the AV industry. Even if actresses sing "I don't want to leave, I want to stay," the highly competitive, survival-of-the-fittest environment forces production companies and agencies to be ruthless. It's truly rare for Kotoi Shiori to debut with the best production company and have such a heartwarming retirement. All we can do is say goodbye properly and wish her all the best.
