Kokoro Amano (天野♥こころ Amano♥Kokoro), is an AV Idol and glamour model who starred in adult videos between 2001 and 2004 . She worked mainly for Soft On Demand and Moodyz.
Life and career
Kokoro was born 30 August 1982 in the city of Miyako, Iwate Prefecture, Japan. She was seeking employment at the time that she was recruited for work in the AV industry. An AV scout found her in the audience of a TV gameshow.[2] Her stage name was given to her by comedian Makoto Kitano, who interviewed her on the TV Asahi variety show Tonight 2.[3] Her AV debut was in the December, 2001 release Confusion.[4] Made for the Alice Japan label, and directed by Kazuhito Kuramoto, the video told the story of a couple, both of whom aspire to be actors. Amano's character has been secretly appearing in adult videos, and is afraid that her boyfriend will find out.[5] Also in December 2001, she appeared on TV in an episode of the TV Asahi detective series Mixed Bathing Rotemburo Serial Murders (元祖！混浴露天風呂連続殺人(21) Konyoku Rotenburo Renzoku Satsujin) along with fellow AV Idol Manami Yoshii.[6]
Critics have often pointed out the documentary-inspired format of many Japanese AVs, which often begin with a lengthy interview with the main actress of the video.[7] Amano's second video for Alice Japan, released in January 2002, and titled Sunny Love,[8] makes use of this format, by including her lengthy network television Tonight 2 interview.[3] Amano's February 2002 AV for Alice Japan, Sealed Love, returned to the fictional narrative format of her first work. In this video, again directed by Kuramoto, she plays an employee of an IT company who has fallen in love with the best friend of her boyfriend.[9] Some of Kokoro's later videos for Alice Japan continued in the purely fictional narrative format. In My Lovely Nurse Sister she plays the role of a nurse who has sex with doctors, and her brother-in-law who is a patient at the hospital where she works.[10]
Her July 2002 DVD for VIP, Kokoro Amano [R], is a game in which Kokoro plays the viewer's younger sister. Different endings result depending on selections made during the watching of the story.[11] Erotic Mind, her next AV for Alice Japan, included scenes of voyeurism, sex in public restrooms, and a threesome,[12] while the plot of her July 2002 video, Fallen Angel X, for the Media Station Bazooka label had scenes of saliva-swallowing and S&M.[13]
In late 2002 she performed with the Soft On Demand (SOD) studio making the bukkake genre video 24 Hours of Bukkake Anytime and Anywhere.[14] and later in 2003, she also starred in the gokkun genre in the SOD video Gokkun Bazooka 150 Shots (Special 2003).[15] She retired from the AV industry in 2004.
