Career

Ayukawa made her AV debut in November 1999 with the Tiffany label.cite web |url=http://homepage3.nifty.com/kurokami/years/years_1999.htm|title=1999|accessdate=2007-07-05|publisher= [http://homepage3.nifty.com/kurokami/index.html AV 研究所 (AV Research Laboratory)] ] Her debut with the Samantha company's MAX-A label was in the August 2000 "cosplay"-themed video, "Scanties". [cite web |url=http://vinfo.xcity.jp/english/info.html?ID=XS2199|title="Scanties"|accessdate=2007-06-18|publisher= [http://avidol.xcity.jp/english/index.html AV Idol Directory] |language=English] Ayukawa's entry in MAX-A's "The Confined Bodydolls" series, subtitled "Ami on Verge of Breakdown!" (November 2000), ventured into the more "hardcore" realms of S&M and bondage.

In May 2001 she made "Cos-Para", her first video with Atlas. Among the attire Ayukawa donned in this "cosplay" video, was that of a nurse, a female ninja, a bunny, and Barbie. Her Alice Japan video "Sexy Butt" (June 2001) again had Ayukawa in the "cosplay" genre, this time in the framework of a story in which she played the role of a daydreaming office lady.

MAX-A chose Ayukawa to star in the first entry in their "Witch-Hunt" series, released in August 2001. This new video series was built around the concept of the question, "Is she an angel or a witch?" The quest for the answer to that question serves as a narrative framework for Ayukawa to endure torture, rape, and assorted other humiliations.

Ayukawa's "long beautiful legs" were the star attraction of her January 2002 Atlas release, "Stocking Lovers". By February of that year, Ayukawa was one of the top AV idols of the time. Her video "Legend", while also "hardcore", included documentary features of the actress talking about her AV career.

Interviewed by "Asahi Geino", and reprinted in an October 2001 "Mainichi Shimbun" news story on mishaps in the Japanese AV industry, Ayukawa said that her "most horrific experience" in the profession involved a simulated rape scene. The actress explained, "During our pre-shoot meeting, the director told me he'd make sure I was all right, so I wasn't that worried. But then, suddenly, this guy grabbed me by the hair and started dragging me along the floor. Then he began choking me so hard I could barely breathe. I was almost unconscious. I screamed out for help and started crying, but not one person came across to save me. When the scene ended, I was black and blue. The director came over to me and said, 'That was a good scene. It almost looked like the real thing.'"
