An Nanba (南波杏, Nanba An^?) also known as Ann Nanba is a Japanese adult video (AV) actress who has had a long and prolific career during which she has won multiple awards. At the beginning of 2009, the DMM and Amazon sites both listed more than 250 DVDs available under her name.^[2][3] She retired from AV work in 2008.

Life and career

AV debut and Moodyz

An Nanba was born in Tokyo on March 7, 1984. She says she was very outgoing as a high-school student and looked much older than her age.^[4] She had met scouts from the AV industry often but only decided to begin an AV career after she was robbed and needed the money. She thought she was doing photographs for a magazine and was shocked when she realized it was a video shoot.^[4] The title of her debut video, Number.1!, released in October 2002 when she was 18, is a play on her name (in Japanese Nanba An sounds close to English "Number One").^[5][6] Although she started in AV work for the money to pay debts, she says she stayed because "I realized that my work turned into something of substance".^[4]

Nanba's first video was with Moodyz and she continued making movies with that studio for the rest of her career at the rate of one or often two videos per month. She also occasionally made non-AV videos - her non-sex gravure title for Shuffle, Naked / An Nanba, released in July 2003, was filmed in Okinawa.^[7] Moodyz is known for its extreme videos and Nanba participated in the various porn genres popular at the studio: bukkake (including two videos with the creator of the genre, Kazuhiko Matsumoto), anal sex, bondage, interracial sex with black actors, urination and simulated rape. The videos took their toll on Nanba, she reports that at one time she collapsed from exhaustion and had to take time off.^[4]

Later career

Starting in October 2005, after more than 50 straight original videos for one company, a feat "practically unheard of" in the adult industry,^[6] she began to appear for the first time in videos for other AV studios beginning with start-up companies Opera and Cross. She also worked with Attackers, a studio specializing in the S&M and simulated rape genres.

One of her last videos, An Nanba Cums! Bako Bako Hot Spring Bus Tour, from October 2007, is in the documentary style common in Japanese porn. Nanba is followed through a full day from 10 AM to the following morning on a bus tour where she acts as a tourist guide who provides her clients some extra services such as fellatio, tekoki and a soapland style scrubbing. A game of twister leads to an all-night sex session followed by a 10 man gang-bang in the morning.^[8]

Nanba has been called the "Queen of Hardcore"^[9] for her many extreme videos with one director claiming “She’ll do absolutely anything” after Nanba won 11 awards at Weekly Playboy's "stupidest adult movie awards" in March 2006.^[10] Nanba has declared her dedication to her profession: "I will work my best to bring the fans the best movies".^[4]

Retirement

Nanba's retirement was an elaborate and epic affair called the Ann-Project by Moodyz. She filmed a series of 8 videos for 8 different studios over a period of several weeks beginning at the end of 2007. The studios involved included S1 No. 1 Style, IdeaPocket and Animaljo, companies she had not previously worked with. The videos were released starting February 1, 2008, with the last one appropriately being a virtual sex work for Moodyz, My Eternal Girlfriend, An Nanba, released on March 1, 2008.^[6][11] The retirement project also included a memorial book and DVD which additionally served to introduce the new generation of actresses at Moodyz.^[12]

Recognition

Nanba was the most celebrated actress at Moodyz during her long career with the studio - she was given the Best Actress Award at the Moodyz Awards three years running, in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Her 2003 videos Digital Mosaic Vol. 11 and Dream School 7 respectively won the top prize Moodyz Award and the Best Sales Award that year and her 2004 work Bukkake Nakadashi Anal Fuck was the recipient of a Special Award.^[13][14][15]

At the 2005 Adult Broadcasting Awards ceremony for adult TV programming in 2004, Nanba took one of the Channel Actress Performance Awards for her work on the Queen Bee channel,^[16] and she also received one of the Best Actress Awards for Excellence at the 2006 AV Actress Grand Prix.^[17]

Video games

Described as "Japan's geekiest adult video actress",^[18] Nanba is an ardent fan of video games and owns several game consoles - a Sony PS2, PS3 and PSP, a Microsoft X Box 360, as well as a Nintendo Wii and DS. The Wii console was bought in New York on launch day. Her favorite games have included Ninety-Nine Nights, Final Fantasy 12, Dragon Quest IV and Wii Fit.^[18][19] Nanba also has her own game blog^[20] on Beside Games, a site featuring well-known Japanese celebrities talking about the games they are playing.^[19]

Nanba's interest in video games also extended to the other side of the game console with the release on July 21, 2006 of An Nanba Cosplay Yakyuken from Gebet. This two hour UMD format PSP game and video featured Nanba in a game of "yakyuken", a version of the venerable "rock-paper-scissors" game. In this strip variant, if the player wins the round, Nanba takes off an article of clothing.^[21] This format was repeated in a December 13, 2006 entry from Gebet, All Star Yakyuken Battle which teamed up Nanba with AV Idols Akiho Yoshizawa, Kaho Kasumi, Kaede Matsushima, Mihiro Taniguchi, Ran Asakawa, Rei Amami, Sora Aoi and Yua Aida. The game and video were released for the PSP and in Blu-Ray for the PS3.^[22][23]
