Ai Kurosawa

Autobiography
Ai Kurosawa was born in Shiga Prefecture on December 24, 1982. During high school she was very active in volleyball, and her hobbies as an adult include collecting Sanrio's Hello Kitty goods. Kurosawa did not become sexually active at a very early age, later stating, "I was really into volleyball when I was in junior high, so I didn't have time for boys."

Her first sexual encounter was during her first year in high school. She says that her first pleasurable experience with sex came later, however. "When I was seventeen," she says, "I went out with my first guy who was good at sex. He made me think 'this is real sex.'"

Kurosawa dropped out of high school and worked in a variety of service-sector jobs including waitressing at a coffee shop and a sushi bar. When she was first scouted to appear in an Adult Video she was receptive to the idea. Recalling AVs she had seen in her father's collection, she later explained, "I thought some of the girls were so pretty, and I wanted to have pictures of myself taken like that."

Her Debut

Ai Kurosawa made her AV debut with the Alice Japan label in their April 27, 2001 release Scenery of Love aka Love Scene. She played the role of a college girl who moves to Tokyo to be near a man whom she loves. When she learns that he already has a girlfriend, she seduces him. For her appearance in this first video, Kurosawa was described "an innocent cutie pie, who shines like a jewel."
Kurosawa says of this first experience in an adult video, "I was really nervous. But it was different than I had imagined... I thought it would be more hard core." Kurosawa's third video, Balloon Breasts was released in June. Her "beautiful F-cup breasts" are highlighted in this video.

They are shown off in various costumes, massaged, and put to work for a paizuri demonstration. This work and her second video were combined on a single DVD entitled Let's Make Love, and released in November of 2001.
Kurosawa's fifth video, Dynamite Tits (released October 2001), was made with Cosmos Plan, and was her first video made with a company other than Alice Japan. In June 2001, after the filming of this AV, and after the release of her second video, Kurosawa was interviewed. When asked to comment on her work in the AV industry up to this point, she replied, "It's pretty fun... Sex in the videos is just different than in private.

After all, you usually don't have sex with people watching you."
Alice Japan's Costume-Play Doll: Sex Doll In School Uniform released in August of 2001, had Kurosawa playing the role of a spy. By using this story device to put her in various costumes, including a cheerleader and a stuffed animal, the video made use of the popular cosplay genre of adult video in Japan. In January of 2002, Kurosawa co-starred with AV actress Shinohara Makoto in another cosplay video for Alice Japan, Costume Play Maniana 2. Among the costumes she wore in this video were Chinese attire and a military uniform. VIP's Black Love, also from January 2002, was a dramatic mystery involving serial murders in a small village.

In Ai Kurosawa [Animation Costume Play] (March 22, 2002), Kurosawa took the cosplay genre into animation. This VIP production featured Kurosawa having sex while dressed as various anime characters. In September of 2003 Kurosawa co-starred in the Alice Japan video Lesbian Politicians with Japan's first hardcore pornographic actress, Kyoko Aizome, who also directed the film.
The similarity between many Japanese adult videos and the documentary film has often been pointed out by critics, and Kurosawa's next video made use of that format. Alice Japan's Bubbly Heaven, from March of 2002, is in the popular soapland sub-genre of these documentary-inspired AVs. The video shows Kurosawa experiencing sexual service from an actor and a professional prostitute.

As Nicholas Bornoff points out, "Sometimes the documentary is faked, predictably with sadistic themes, which nonetheless strive to maintain a spontaneous veneer." Later Kurosawa videos in the mock-documentary genre included VIP's Ai Kurosawa's Sex Training of April 2003, in which she is tortured and forced to obey the video director's every command. Another video in the mock-documentary format was Ai Kurosawa's Hypnotic Fuck from Cosmos Plan. This AV has Kurosawa purportedly hypnotized, after which her "deep sexual desires are revealed."

In February 2003, after having worked with several companies, mostly Alice Japan, Kurosawa released Sexy Pearl, her first video for Atlas21. COS-PARA, of March 2003, was Kurosawa's entry in the company's popular cosplay series. The costumes worn by Kurosawa in this video include that of a waitress and a nurse. Atlas21 combined these two videos onto one DVD entitled Ai Kurosawa FREAK, in May of 2003.
Later in 2003, Kurosawa appeared in two multi-actress videos for Atlas21. The theme of Women On Top of August 2003 is explained in the title, and the video featured thirteen AV actresses having sex in the titular position. Erotic Breasts Girls of November, 2003 starred seven AV actresses known for the beauty of their breasts.

In December of 2003, Kurosawa co-starred in TMA The Big and Extreme Breasts Premium II, a similar multi-actress anthology for the TMA label. This video included AV idols Anna Ohura and Kyoko Ayana.

With her "perfectly proportioned body forged from years of volleyball coupled with a G-cup bust," Kurosawa had become one of the most popular and prominent AV actresses of the early 2000s. The AV industry recognized her career on November 26, 2003, when she was given Soft On Demand's award for outstanding actress. Japanese mainstream media also paid tribute to Kurosawa when she won the "Main AV Actress Award" at Takeshi Kitano's second Entertainment Awards ceremony..

Ai Kurosawa retired from AVs in January 2006, but continues performing as a striptease dancer.
