Reason for choosing “raw”

If you look at Instagram, you’ll see pictures of ordinary women in swimsuits, and if you look at TikTok, you’ll see videos of ordinary women shaking their breasts, and the world is full of sexy appeal by amateur women. Among these, there is a sexy group of amateurs that is rapidly increasing in popularity.
That is Namanaka no Joshi, commonly known as Namajo, a performance group sponsored by Soft on Demand. What is Nama Nakano instead of Nakano Joshi? I asked them about the identity of the group, which somehow sounded sexy and intriguing.

First, let’s ask Tetsuya Takaoka, CEO of Hanaya Project, the Soft-on-Demand group company that created Namajo, also known as Namajo, to tell us the story behind its birth.

TakaokaWorks with the word “amateur” in the title have a certain level of popularity. The charm of being an amateur is that the women around you are actually so sexy, and it’s so dangerous and exciting that you don’t know what they’re going to do.

Since there are so many idols in the world, I thought that a group that remained amateurish and unprofessional would be popular, so I decided to form a group with 40 amateur women, including Otsuru, which I will introduce this time. That’s what I did.

――Namajo was born from this idea. What is the origin and concept of the name?

TakaokaEbisu Muscats already exists as the leading sexy and cute group, so I thought it would be interesting if I were to do it. This led to a series of performances in which she did group gymnastics while chanting “Big climax!” and then said “Don’t show me,” but her underwear was visible at the punchline, and her panties fell down while she was jumping rope.

The origin of the name Nama Nakano Joshi is…The company is located in Nakano, and I simply wanted it to have a sexy sound, so I put “raw” in the beginning (lol). We added the concept that performances can only be performed live.

We also asked member Mio Ikewaki, also known as Otsuru (26 years old), why she joined Nama Nakano Joshi.

OtsuruOriginally, I entered NSC (Yoshimoto General Performing Arts Academy) from the age of 18 until Hatachi, and I dreamed of appearing on stage with Kanade-chan, the “3 o’clock heroine” of the same year. However, things didn’t work out for me, and after graduating from NSC, I worked as a part-time worker.

Then, I happened to meet President Takaoka at an event held by sexy actress Mana Sakura, and he asked me to work part-time at the restaurant business “Joshi Employee Sakaba” run by Soft On Demand. I have been asked to become a member of Nakano Joshi.
