Honoka is an award-winning Japanese adult video actress and popular TV personality and actress.

Life and career

Honoka was born in Tarumizu, Kagoshima , Japan on June 20, 1983. She is a licensed practical nurse and has appeared as a race queen at the 2004 Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race (July 2004). She plays the guitar, enjoys swimming and volleyball, going to Kabuki theatre and walking her dog. Like fellow AV Idols Sora Aoi and Nana Natsume, she has been able to combine a career as an AV actress with mainstream movie and TV appearances.

Before she started in AV, Honoka had a small role as a female android secretary in the TV Tokyo cosplay drama The Ultimate Venus Angel Healing Force (究極癒し戦隊ヴィーナスエンジェル) which she was in from February 16 to March 29, 2004.

AV Actress

Honoka began her adult video career in June 2004 with the studio Try-Heart on their Sexia label. She made 10 videos with Try-Heart over the next 18 months including a six month hiatus at the end of 2005 when she made no videos. In March 2006, she began releasing videos with two AV studios, S1 and Premium, usually one video every other month for each studio. Her last original work with S1 was released in January 2008, but she continues to make films with Premium.

Honoka's AV career has been quite conservative, she has worked for studios which specialize in softer, more glamour-oriented types of pornography, and she has never ventured into the more extreme genres of Japanese porn. She is a very popular actress in Japan and in the DMM list of the top 100 actresses by sales, she placed 2 in 2006 and 3 in 2007.

Honoka was part of the S1 compilation video Hyper – Barely There Mosaic (ハイパーギリギリモザイク) with AV idols Sora Aoi, Yua Aida, Yuma Asami, Maria Ozawa and Rin Aoki which won the 2006 AV Open competition among Japanese porn studios.

After pressing her tongue againt the phallus-shaped prize statuette, she declared "I never thought I would be selected. I'd like to say that it was 'my pleasure' to my fans."
