Haru Shibasaki Feature | From SOD Employee to Actress: 3 Years, 58 Works

Her debut work contains a single line of text on a white background in black serif font. The line has nothing to do with sex — it is financial data from the merchandise division of the company that makes and sells sex toys, reporting on that unit’s performance.

In 2022, the SOD merchandise division took a heavy blow due to yen weakness (Caption from debut work)

The first AV film carries her employer’s earnings statement. Haru Shibasaki was a fresh graduate at Soft-on-Demand, assigned to the merchandise division that designs and sells sex toys. Yen weakness had driven up material costs; the division was posting losses even when products sold. A division employee was explaining her own company’s deficit at the point where the work begins. A single line born from the circumstances of this company, this division, this year alone sits at the entrance to the film. That line returns later, weighted differently.

At the office, a woman in white knitwear sits before a laptop at her desk. Around her neck hangs an orange strap and an employee card with her face. To her left is another woman; to her right in the background, someone’s shoulders. Dishes and a drink sit on the desk edge. It is a scene you find in any office—and out of everyone in it, only one person is about to undress.

The screen reminds us once more that she was the one who brought it up.

I’m the one who said I would collect data (from inside the vagina) (Caption from debut work)

The company did not force her. The merchandise division needed vaginal data to make better sex toys, and she, an employee, volunteered to collect it. If a boss had ordered her to undress, that line would serve no purpose. Because she spoke first, the parenthetical stays on screen.

In an interview in May 2023, a month after her debut, Haru Shibasaki explained how she came to perform.

“The director said, ‘Making better adult products sometimes means putting your body on the line—that’s one approach,’ and when he asked if I would appear, I thought, well, as someone in the merchandise division, this is something only I can do, so I said yes. But I was anxious about how to tell my family and friends about appearing in AV. Then I happened to run into Rei Kanuki from SODstar, and I opened up to her about the worry.” (Interview in Yūyake Taishū, May 2023)

The director did make a proposal. The language of that proposal was “one approach,” and she rephrased it as “something only I can do”—placing her body at the service of product development. Other employees worked on sex toy design, but only a female employee could provide data from her own body, and among them, she was the one who raised her hand. The phrase “wanted to do it” came too quickly. Her anxiety pointed outward: how to tell her family and friends.

What stopped her lay beyond the office walls.

“Yes, I did tell them. My mother doesn’t usually deny what I want to do, but when I told her about the AV appearance, she said I was being deceived. Then I kept telling her multiple times that I’d made this decision myself and that I wanted to work hard even in a job like this, and she came to understand. After that, my father apparently convinced her too, and now he says to me, ‘If you’ve decided to do an AV appearance, then do your best.’” (Interview in Yūyake Taishū, May 2023)

Her mother’s first word was “deceived.” A woman who refused to deny her daughter’s choices rejected this one at first. Many conversations. Her father persuading her mother. At last: “then do your best.” Three family members visible in a single paragraph. What her mother first suspected was the existence of someone who had tricked her daughter; her daughter replied by stating her own will again and again. At the office, she had spoken first. Beyond it, she explained repeatedly. Then she undressed.

Her most recent work, released September 1, 2026, is her fifty-eighth. Since debut, she has released almost monthly without missing time.

The merchandise division no longer exists. Haru Shibasaki left the company and remains before the camera today as an exclusive SODstar actress. The employee who undressed to sell sex toys has vanished along with the division itself, yet something stayed. This is the record of a woman who said “no way” first, then did it anyway.

Whose Job Is It to Satisfy Elderly Sexual Desire?

SOD’s official website lists Haru Shibasaki’s reasons for joining the company as a statement from the applicant herself.

■Reason for joining: From high school, I studied and practiced eldercare. In a university class, I developed a deep interest in the sexuality of elderly people, and came to want to develop adult products for elderly people and caregivers whose sexual desires cannot be satisfied. Learning that Soft On Demand was developing a new adult product business, I decided to apply to the product division. (SOD official website · Profile from SOD Female Employees era)

Someone trained in eldercare applied to an adult video company wanting to create tools to satisfy elderly sexual desire. The entrance was caregiving; the exit was a masturbation device. That is why she applied to the product division. There was a university class on elderly sexuality; she developed an interest there, and when she searched for a company making tools to meet that need, she found SOD.

She describes this same motivation in a May 2023 interview, recounting a scene from her internship.

“From my high school years, I was studying eldercare and nursing. When I did my internship, there were times when elderly men would touch my buttocks and breasts. Also, there were requests for only women to change diapers.” (Yuuyake Taishuu, May 2023 interview)

At her internship, high schooler Shibasaki had her buttocks and breasts touched by elderly men. There were also requests for only women to change diapers. Up to this point, it is an account of harm, and most interns would choose either to leave caregiving at this juncture or continue in silence. Haru Shibasaki chose a third option.

“We’re taught that caregiving and nursing is about improving the patient’s quality of life. Everyone has appetite, sleep needs, and sexual desire, right? But in the caregiving world, addressing sexual desire is taboo. I started to question whether treating sexual desire as taboo truly improves the patient’s quality of life. I thought, if I act on this doubt, maybe I can change something. I had been watching SOD’s works since I was a student, and there are so many interesting and bold ideas. I thought this company would support what I wanted to do, so I joined.” (Yuuyake Taishuu, May 2023 interview)

She reframes her experience of being touched as a gap in the system. Appetite and sleep needs are legitimate to address, yet sexual desire alone remains forbidden territory. She questions whether this distinction truly improves the patient’s quality of life, and believes that if she takes action, change is possible. Her logic for choosing an employer is the same: she had watched this company’s work since student days and found their ideas wild and bold, so she trusted they would support what she wanted to do. Before saying it’s impossible, she first decided her path based on the premise “if I act.” In this statement from before she joined the company, the moment of preemptive refusal has not yet arrived.

There is an example of one line from her resume later becoming her casting.

■Special skills: Karate (trained for 10 years, black belt) Calligraphy: Trained for 10 years · instructor certification (qualified to teach through elementary school 6th grade) (SOD official website · Profile from SOD Female Employees era)

She holds a black belt in karate and instructor certification in calligraphy up to 6th grade level. After becoming exclusive to the company, one of her films is titled “Karate Beauty Dominated by Hypnotic Rays.” The special skill listed in her employee-era profile appeared in the title. She is from Kumamoto Prefecture and is 155 cm tall.

Always in the Workplace

Haru Shibasaki undressed in the same building she passes through every morning. Her answer when asked about the filming location was brief.

“It was always my workplace (laughs). Being watched by everyone was quite exciting.” (Yuuyake Taishuu, May 2023 interview)

A colleague who had worked at the desk across from hers was holding the camera. What she was facing was someone she had worked beside until the day before, and that fact was counted as material for excitement. She filmed while embarrassed and called it material. These are the words of someone who would return to the same building the next morning.

The title appears after the position on screen.

Merchandise Division Haru Shibasaki (2nd Year) (Text from debut work)

Wearing a light blue high neck with an orange strap, she faced directly forward. The title appears on the right side of the screen. The turtleneck comes up to her neck, with only the strap visible above it. This is how an employee was introduced by department and years of service. A line that would not appear in a work presented by an actress’s name is placed beside her face.

The company has many employees introduced this way. What sets Haru Shibasaki apart is that she undressed for her own department’s products.

There is also a declaration.

Haru Shibasaki will appear in AV. (Text from debut work)

Through a chain, she faces forward. The chain crosses in front of her face, and the text appears at the bottom of the screen. The chain, the text, and her face directed forward. The statement “I will appear” is placed in front of her face viewed through the chain. It is her own voice saying these words.

The subject is the person herself, and the verb is “will appear.” If the company were placing the employee in a work, the subject would shift to the company. Here, the employee is saying she will appear on her own.

The product page text follows.

Merchandise Division 2nd-year Haru Shibasaki is purer and more sincere than anyone! She has conviction! And karate is apparently a black belt, plus she’s a calligraphy master! And the gap with her appearance is insane! Sex was incredibly erotic…! She loved kissing, blowjobs, penetration, and deep penetration…. To develop a new toy product, she makes a decision to use the inside of her vagina as sample data for analysis…. (FANZA product page / SOD official special site – description of debut work)

The decision’s content is to undress in her own workplace, in front of her colleagues. Vaginal data can only be measured through actual penetration. For the new toy product, the employee herself becomes the subject of measurement. The line “she loved kissing, penetration, and deep penetration” indicates that the filming, which was supposed to be measurement, did not end as measurement. Her martial arts black belt and calligraphy mastery come first here too. The serious employee’s face that existed within the company is brought to the store. What is called “gap” is the contrast between that face and the nakedness that followed.

This work received 117 reviews, and as of September 2026, it has the most reviews among her performances. What opens first at the store is still this first work under her name as an employee.

The month after her debut, when asked about her aspirations, the reason she undressed was still present.

“Now that I have so much better material to make adult goods with, I’m glad I made the effort with my body this time. From now on, I want to make increasingly better products, products that make customers say ‘I won’t accept anything but SOD toys.’” (Yuuyake Taishuu, May 2023 interview)

She says the reward for making the effort with her body is not the work itself but the material. What she gained from filming was data to make toys, and her goal was customers saying “I won’t accept anything but SOD toys.” That phrase is the customers’ words—her goal was to create a product that customers would call by that name. There is no trace of aspiration as an actress anywhere in this answer. What became of this aspiration appears later, told in her own words.

There is an image of her arm-wrestling on a wooden floor. An arm emerging from the beige knit sleeve is linked with an arm in a black shirt. Only the black-shirted arm is visible in the frame; the other person has no face. The employee who spoke of taking vaginal data is now arm-wrestling against someone on the floor. This image returns later with her own words.

On a gray cushion, both hands emerging from purple fleece sleeves are clasped together. Her face is not shown, only her hands with interlaced fingers on the cushion. A single image of folded hands on a cushion appears in the work of the person who answered quickly that she wanted to do it. There are also such hand images in the work of the person who spoke first and had it put on screen.

Her hair is short enough to show her ears, and in this work her bangs are trimmed to fall to her eyebrows. The short length that shows her ears does not change even in works after becoming exclusive.

In a white room, she is hugging a man in a black top. Eyes closed, eyebrows drawn together. There is also an image of her sitting on the man’s knees with both arms around his neck. The woman who wore an employee ID in the office area and the woman in this proximity are both in the same work.

Never Leaving the Office

When asked about her interest in adult toys, the person who had compared them using her own body gave an answer about how they were made.

“I was interested in understanding the structure.” (Yuuyake Taishu, May 2023 interview)

She was interested in how things were made. When asked about her interest, she answered with talk of construction. With this same perspective, a merchandise department employee became the subject of a work testing toys on her own body.

Ecstatic Research into Adult Toys for Women! In researching female adult goods, as she tested them in pursuit of what felt good, she realized she was climaxing repeatedly…! Cute short-haired merchandise department employee Haru Shibasaki in her second year. (FANZA product page, work title)

The word “research” appears in the title. The work proceeds with the appearance of a job task—actually testing female adult goods and pursuing what felt good—then she ended up climaxing repeatedly during the testing. It enters from the research side and emerges from the body side.

The on-screen chyron is likewise administrative.

“Analysis and Research on Vibrators and Massagers” (Chyron from toy development work)

She wears a white top and holds a tablet in her right hand. Behind her are handwritten notes on a whiteboard and product shelves, with yellow chyrons overlaying the text on screen. Both the hand holding the tablet and the whiteboard handwriting appear in an in-office meeting shot, yet only the chyron text names vibrators and massagers. The chyron-like language and the tablet-holding hand occupy the same frame.

“Comparative Research on Different Dildos” (Chyron from toy development work)

At a white desk, she wears a white ribbed turtleneck with an employee ID, eyes downcast. Boxes and cylindrical products line the desktop, covered by yellow chyrons with text overlaid. Before her lowered gaze sits the merchandise; the person wearing the employee ID around her neck looks at the objects on the desk. The chyron words name the comparative testing, and before her eyes, objects align for comparison.

In a close-up of her face, she grips a white vibrator in both hands. Above the collar of a beige ribbed turtleneck, her mouth corners lift and her upper teeth show. The person who spoke of understanding structure is now holding the very tool embodying that structure in both hands and smiling. This smile—teeth bared—appears the same way whether she’s on the street or in a bar’s private room.

She sits on a white desk. To her left and right stand two women in suits; one holds a clipboard. A monitor on the left displays footage from another angle. Only the person on the desk is the one being tested; the suited women and clipboard belong to the documentation side. The clipboard is the tool of those recording the comparison results. In this frame, the veneer of research remains intact.

She undresses while keeping the employee ID strap on. From her bare neck hangs an orange strap with a card bearing her face. Without the turtleneck or top, only the employee ID remains as something from the office on her body. The orange strap is the same color as when she was at the office’s desk in her debut work.

Every frame has the same background: the office or product shelves. Even in the shot with the white treatment table, there’s a wall of notices behind the desk. No shot transitions to an outside studio.

She has named this work herself. This was her answer when asked about changes to her body in an April 2024 interview, after finishing her transformation work. She selected it from a work credited under her employee name.

――Have any areas developed over the past year?

“Since my whole body is already an erogenous zone, I haven’t discovered anything new that feels particularly good. But I realized there was something beyond my previous peak.”

――Did you notice when you broke through?

“Even when I’m at the point where I think ‘I can’t go any further,’ if caressing and penetration continue, I break through.”

――Which work was that?

“The first time I broke through was in ‘Ecstatic Research into Adult Toys for Women!’ (abbreviated). I felt it from beginning to end.” (Yuuyake Taishu, April 2024 interview)

Beyond the threshold of “I can’t go any further,” there was still more. When caressing and penetration continued, she crossed the limit she thought she’d reached. Having said this, she named this research work as the one where it first happened. “Research” in the title is the language of her job; her own words are “I can’t go any further”—two phrases overlapping within that same office. The breakthrough came from the body’s side. And that first breakthrough happened in a work shot entirely within the office, without stepping outside even once.

Lying on her back on a white floor, her mouth opens wide. The ID strap falls beside her face. On that same white floor, another shot shows her eyes closed, her hair matted with sweat against her cheek. The employee ID strap has fallen beside her face, her cheek glistens with sweat-dampened hair, and here, within the office, is the face of someone who went beyond “I can’t go any further."

"I Can’t Possibly Do This,” Said on the Street

In the magic mirror car work, Haru Shibasaki speaks more about herself than about the person she is trying to seduce.

“More than anything, I’m just so introverted” (Text overlay in the magic mirror car work)

She sits on the sofa with both hands placed in front of her chest. The text appears on screen in orange. Her hands in front of her chest are not open toward the other person. The woman who declares herself introverted with both hands held close to her body is cast in this work as the one doing the seducing. The image shows the person initiating the pickup with both hands positioned in front of her own chest.

In a reverse pickup work, she first claims to be introverted. On a day when striking up conversations is her job, she announces that she has no business being the one to initiate.

There is another line where she states it even more clearly.

“I can’t possibly do this…” (Text overlay in the magic mirror car work)

Outside in front of a glass building, she turns to the side. The line appears on screen in pink text. Her face is turned to the side, her gaze different from when she faces forward in the introduction image. The woman who said she was introverted on the sofa turns to the side in front of the building. The words “I can’t possibly do this” emerge as she remains turned sideways, her face not directed at anyone.

The scenario’s condition is that she cannot return home until she has succeeded with three people in the car with someone she picked up on the street. This line appears on screen in the midst of that scenario. The first complete articulation of “I can’t possibly manage this” appears here. The woman who said “it was because I suggested it” in her debut work now says she can’t do it.

She herself talks about her hairstyle.

“I went to a new salon and they completely botched it. It was completely botched, and at first it looked way worse than this. So I went to another new salon and asked, ‘Please give me a hairstyle that at least lets me be seen in public,’ and this is what I ended up with.” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

In this work, her bangs are cut in a straight horizontal line. The shortness that exposes her ears remains the same, but the line of the bangs differs from her debut work where they hung across her eyebrows.

The mushroom cut is not a character choice but a salon mistake. After the failure, she went to another salon and asked for a hairstyle presentable enough to appear in public, resulting in a more subdued look with which she now stands on the street and approaches strangers. The threshold of “acceptable to be seen in public” was her own upper limit. It is in that threshold-level hair that she takes on the role of seducer.

But being in the car itself was a desire.

“I’ve always wanted to appear in a magic mirror car work. Before I joined the company, I already liked watching this kind of work, so I wanted to get in one at least once. In that sense, having that dream come true is the most memorable for me. In the work, I do a reverse pickup saying ‘Would you become a monitor tester for an adult toy?’ But since reverse pickups were also a first-time experience for me, everything felt fresh, and it left a good impression.” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

She rode in the car she had watched before joining as an employee. She says her dream came true, yet on screen she also says she can’t do it. Her pickup line is “Would you become a monitor tester for an adult toy?” — not a seduction line but a sales tool. A Merchandise Division employee recruits monitors for her division’s products on the street and brings them into the car under that pretext. The reverse pickup was also a first for her, with only the invitation words carried over from her day job. She seduces using sales language, then does something entirely different from her day job inside the car.

The title too ends in a question mark.

Merchandise Division Haru Shibasaki Gets Her Thrilling First Ride in the Magic Mirror Car! Heart Pounding With a Remote Vibrator Inside, Soaking Wet and Seductive, Reverse Pickup Success!? (FANZA product page · work title)

After “success” comes ”!?” She stands on the street with a remote vibrator still inside, soaked while seducing, yet whether the other person will get in is left unsettled even in the title. The woman who said she was introverted and on screen claimed she couldn’t possibly do this is now out on the street.

On the street, she laughs with her mouth wide open. It is a smile showing her upper teeth. The text banner carries the name of the person trying to get her to appear. In the same expression as when she laughed holding the electric vibrator in both hands at the office, only the location has changed to the street. The woman who said she was introverted displays this face on the street.

On the sofa in the car, she is on all fours, naked except for her employee ID. In her right hand, an orange beverage bottle. Undressing while keeping the employee ID strap on is the same as in the office work, but the image of being on all fours while holding a drink in her right hand appears only in this one. This is how the employee seduced by sales language appears inside the car.

Inside the car, she lies on her back on the sofa still wearing her white blouse and skirt, her eyebrows furrowed. There is also an image of her lying on her back in a salmon-pink high-leg leotard with her mouth open. Twice — in her work outfit and in a swimsuit — her expression collapses in the same car.

The Department Disappears

Haru Shibasaki was assigned to the merchandise division in 2022, her first year as a new graduate hire. Her debut work was distributed on April 11 the following year—the first film of an employee who undressed for the division’s products, sitting right there alongside them.

That division was gone by late 2023 to early 2024. In less than a year after debut, the department that had been her reason to undress vanished first.

In an April 18, 2024 interview, when asked how her day job was going, her answer wavered.

—You appear in AV every month. How is your main job going right now? Adult goods grew their sales during the COVID period, after all.

“Well… that is…”

—Your face just turned dark. What’s the matter?

“The merchandise division I was assigned to closed down a few months ago because of falling sales…”

—When we interviewed you last year, you were so fired up about it!

“It’s just that we got hit by yen depreciation, and sales haven’t recovered easily…” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

The department that sold the products was gone. The reason she had undressed was to sell that department’s merchandise. The phrase about yen depreciation buried in the screen of her debut work had been the explanation of an employee stripping to try to restore her own division. The person who had spoken the year before about wanting her to say “nothing but SOD’s onaholes will do” was now answering “well… that is…” a year later. The interviewer remembered the previous year’s version of her as “so fired up,” and voiced that gap right in front of her.

Between debut and this interview, fifteen works had been released under the employee name, and the one research project the subject herself identified as her peak fell on the third. New releases never stopped. The reason for appearing was already gone.

When asked to explain the cause, her answer did not stop at yen depreciation.

—It would have been great if that VR work had triggered a sales boost.

“We only got to the stage before putting the product out. The prototype stage was all we reached. The merchandise division shut down right when we were at the prototype phase.”

—You were fortunate as a performer, but not fortunate as an employee.

“I suppose I didn’t work hard enough.” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

The onahole they were making stopped at the prototype stage. After she herself had mentioned material costs and exchange rates, she took the cause onto herself—as a matter of her own effort. The interviewer said “you were not fortunate as an employee,” and she did not receive that. At a moment when she could have blamed currency, she did not. She could tell the story of her division closing in terms of yen depreciation, yet she told it as a story of her own insufficient effort.

The prototype onahole, when it reached the public eye at all, did so only within the VR work.

[VR] SOD Female Employees: Haru Shibasaki First VR “What if I joined SOD… I’m a coworker in the merchandise division, Haru Shibasaki, and we’re secretly dating at work!! At Haru’s request, I’ll test the onahole: ‘Hey, which feels better—my insides or the toy’s insides?’ For the new product launch presentation…” (FANZA product page · work title)

With a coworker during overtime, she lets him try the onahole she had been developing and asks which feels better—his sensation or what she provides. The title reads “toward a new product launch presentation”—within the work, the product was still assumed to be coming to market. It never did. She was pleased that what she had created received attention within that one film. The product that never sold only wore its product face within this single work. A scene built entirely from the language of the company—coworker, overtime, presentation, field test—yet comparing an onahole to her own body.

The closure even made its way into the official behind-the-scenes video title.

[Behind the Scenes] Haru Shibasaki’s Path to Director ~ The Merchandise Division’s Closure… One Female AD Reassigned to Production Films (SOD Official YouTube series · video title)

Closure and reassignment sit side by side in a single title. That the department vanished and that employee moved to another division—both facts fit on one line.

Joining the Side of People Who Are Out of Their Minds

In a Magic Mirror work, Haru Shibasaki speaks about the production department like this.

“No, really, the production staff are seriously out of their minds” (Magic Mirror work on-screen text)

In a shot while walking down a sidewalk, she speaks with her mouth open. On screen, this single line appears in pink and black text. On the sidewalk, rather than discussing her prospective partner, she speaks about the production department.

She was a merchandise division employee making an offhand comment about the adjacent department from the outside. The very person who said the planning side’s people were unhinged ended up being assigned to that department months later.

She clearly states that the reason for appearing vanished.

“I originally appeared in adult videos to promote the merchandise division, but once the merchandise division was eliminated, there was no longer any reason for me to appear in them…” (Yuuyake Taishu, April 2024 interview)

The reason she appeared was to promote the division. If the division no longer existed, there was no reason to appear. She says this herself. Had she stopped here, it would have been a story of an employee stripping for her department, and her department disappearing with her. She didn’t stop. After losing the reason to appear, she continued to appear in videos, and at the same time, moved behind the camera.

After transferring to the production department, she continued appearing in videos while working as an AD on set. Having moved behind the scenes, she now sees for herself where the staff was looking when she was performing.

She also talks about what happened when pursuing the path of director.

――Now that you’re working hard as an AD in the production department, what comes next for you?

“I’m aiming to become a director in the production department, but I was told in planning meetings that they couldn’t tell what I wanted to depict, and I’m hitting a wall. Ultimately, I couldn’t find the erotic vision I wanted to express, but someone suggested I try doing a streaming work as a director, so I was given the chance to shoot a work as a director myself.”

――That’s a make-or-break opportunity!

“But I couldn’t communicate clearly to the actors how I wanted them to perform, the shoot became chaotic, and I caused trouble for a lot of people.”

――Oh dear…

“Because of that, I thought I wasn’t cut out to be a director, but at that point, my boss the producer said, ‘Let’s talk about it,’ and as we discussed, I realized I had more fun when I was appearing in videos than when I was shooting them. Hearing that, my boss suggested that rather than working as part of the production department, I should work as an exclusive actress for ‘SOD star.’” (Yuuyake Taishu, April 2024 interview)

In planning meetings, she was repeatedly told they couldn’t see what she wanted to depict. Yet she still directed one streaming work. She couldn’t communicate her vision to the actors, the set collapsed, and she caused trouble. She didn’t fail to become a director—she shot one work and that was the end. In her distress, she consulted with her boss and realized she had enjoyed performing more. The proposition to become an exclusive actress came from that boss. The person who couldn’t find what she wanted to depict arrived at the conclusion herself through the conversation that she wanted to return to being shot rather than shooting. She moved to the side of those who are out of their minds, but couldn’t move all the way through.

Her failure also has a close-up video.

【Close-Up】Showered with Criticism at the High-Pressure Pitch Meeting: Production Department’s Haru Shibasaki (SOD official YouTube close-up series, video title)

The company posted the place where her pitch didn’t go through, with the title as the name. “Showered with criticism” is what the company that held the meeting called it.

【Close-Up】Haru Shibasaki’s AV Director Debut! But the Worst Mishap Happens on Set… (SOD official YouTube close-up series, video title)

The collapse of the set where she shot as a director appears alongside it on the same channel as “worst mishap.” The maker puts an employee’s failure in the close-up title and releases it to the public. As far as can be seen, Shibasaki Haru’s career contains nothing the company tried to hide.

I’m Definitely Not Capable of That

While she was wavering about whether to quit, the camera was also rolling.

【Behind the Scenes】To quit or not to quit…An interview at home. The pinnacle of conflict （SOD Official YouTube Behind-the-Scenes Series・Video Title）

The title was “to quit or not to quit,” and the location was her home. She was filming a conversation about quitting the company on the company’s own channel.

Here’s how she explained her hesitation.

“After being suggested ‘How about quitting the company and becoming an actress?’, I worried quite a bit. Whether in the merchandise division or the production division, I hadn’t achieved anything—I was a really half-hearted employee, wasn’t I? Since I hadn’t achieved all the goals I’d set for myself, I wondered if I could really become an exclusive SODstar actress in that state of affairs.”

“I did worry a lot, but as someone in the production division at the time, rather than staying there without knowing what I wanted to do, I thought it was more suited to me to pursue acting, which was something I enjoyed doing and appearing in. So I decided to accept the offer.” （Yuuyake Taishu, April 2024 Interview）

The reason for her hesitation wasn’t about pay or social standing. It was that she hadn’t delivered any products in the merchandise division, hadn’t continued as a director in the production division, and hadn’t achieved a single goal she’d set for herself. She was questioning whether becoming an exclusive actress was the right move for someone who remained a half-hearted employee. The question of whether to become exclusive wasn’t about whether she wanted to—it was about whether she had the right to. And she had decided that the right to become exclusive was measured by achieving her goals. By that measure, she had been half-hearted. Her reason for accepting was also close to process of elimination: staying in the production division not knowing what she wanted to do was less suited to her than pursuing the actress work she’d found enjoyable. There’s not a single word from her mouth about becoming exclusive as advancement.

When asked whether she could see the path to becoming an exclusive actress, her answer reveals most clearly how Haru Shibasaki speaks.

――Did you think you could land the role of a SODstar actress when you appeared last year?

“I had a really strong feeling of ‘No way, you’re lying!’ I thought ‘There’s no way I can do it, for sure’ (laugh)”

――You had popularity as a female employee performer, and since monthly regular releases were coming out, that’s how you’re blooming now.

“Am I blooming?” （Yuuyake Taishu, April 2024 Interview）

She speaks the impossibility first. If the other person says she’s blooming, she asks back whether she is blooming. There’s not a single moment where she speaks from her own side about what she can do. The assessment that she’s blooming comes from regular monthly releases, and she hasn’t accepted that assessment as her own. Even while not accepting it, she still accepted the offer to become exclusive.

She left the company, and her first release as SODstar exclusive was distributed on April 23, 2024. A little over a year had passed since her first release under her employee name.

The words of her hesitation remain visible on the screen of her transition work.

Can I become a SODstar? （Subtitle in Transition Work）

At the window, there’s a beige-knit back and back of the head. In a shot where the face doesn’t appear, only a white-lettered question is overlaid. The hair at the back of the head is short enough to show the ears. Without showing the face asking whether she can become one, she places the question before she decided on the work after accepting, using only the back and back of the head. It’s a work where there’s a question in the shot without the face, and a certainty in the close-up of the face.

I still have no weapons （Subtitle in Transition Work）

She’s standing in the green of a cardigan among the trees in a park. The single line is overlaid in white. Outside the office, outside the car, standing among the trees with no desk or product shelf, she’s saying she has no weapons. The trees outside the company were chosen as the place to count her weapons.

Counting Eight

When Haru Shibasaki heard what the pivot work contained, the words from her mouth turned in a different direction than before.

“I thought, ‘Yes! This is my reward!’”

“Since the pleasure keeps going the whole time, I like group play! ”

“I can only think about pleasure, and I can concentrate better than one-on-one, so I like big group works” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

She names this one thing as aptitude. She says she can concentrate better with more partners, and she calls it a reward. The reason she can concentrate better than one-on-one is that pleasure is all she can think about—the more partners, the less she has to think. The reluctance she voiced before has been erased here.

The words at the point of sale carry the hesitation she went through.

SOD Female Employee Haru Shibasaki makes a shocking career shift as a SODstar actress! Feeling pressure about whether she could become a SODstar actress, Haru decided to give her all to things only she could do, and took on an unprecedented three consecutive sessions of 5P SEX × 5P SEX × 9P SEX. A total of 17 creampie releases! Witness her true determination and resolve. (SOD official site / FANZA product page - pivot work description)

She was hesitant about whether she could. The person who said “something only I can do” when she decided to debut does the same in the pivot work—“something only she can do.” Her way of resolving that hesitation was to multiply her partners at once. Rather than sell after the doubt is gone, she is selling the doubt itself.

She is trying to count her partners.

“I thought eight people were more than I imagined (laughs). Eight people—I can tell the number and their presence (laughs). But when they get naked and actually stand in front of me, I’m like, ‘Wait! There are that many!?’ (laughs)”

“Partway through, I’m like, ‘Where am I being touched?’ and ‘Who’s d*ck am I sucking right now?’ (laughs)”

“Since the d*cks come in rotation, I’m like, ‘Did the person change? Did they not change?’ (laughs)”

“It was actually really fun. But since I don’t know whose d*ck it is, that bothers me a lot, so I felt like 5P is just right”

“When I’m sucking or being penetrated, I can tell when a d*ck has changed, and by the thickness and hardness I can tell how excited the other person is” (Yūyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

As a number, she understood eight people. Naked and standing in front of her, she counts again—did she miscalculate? Who is touching her, who is she sucking, did the person change or stay the same? While appearing in a high-volume production, she tries to count each partner one by one and cannot finish counting. So her answer is that 5P is just right. She says she can tell each person’s level of excitement by thickness and hardness. Among a number of people she cannot count, she still tries to distinguish each one.

The same work the subject calls a reward, the official site describes with these words.

With more passion than anyone else. 　　I have no choice but to keep trying. (SOD official site - pivot work tagline)

The company says she has no choice but to keep trying; she says it was a reward. Two ways of speaking bracket the same work. The pivot work did not end with the main feature—at the same time, a documentary work was released titled “The path of one female employee becoming an AV actress.”

The words on screen also change to affirmation in the pivot work.

I want to deliver the maximum SEX I can give (Pivot work onscreen text)

In the woods, in a green cardigan over a white tank top, turned to the side, the corners of her mouth raised. White-lettered text overlays the image. It is a casual-clothes shot, cardigan over tank top. The person who said she had no weapons in the woods also appears in this work with a side profile saying “maximum.” The image is there.

SEX is something I won’t lose to anyone. (Pivot work onscreen text)

In a close-up of her face, her left hand in the sleeve of the green cardigan brings the green fabric to her mouth. White lettering reads, won’t lose to anyone. The fabric and cardigan are the same green. The strongest line in her own words sits alongside the face with fabric drawn to her mouth.

In the office, in a beige knit with an orange lanyard, hands together as she speaks. A copier in the background. The work where she becomes exclusive still contains an image with her employee ID hanging from her neck. The same orange lanyard as when she was on the island in her debut work. The clothes from before she quit remain in the work where she quits.

In the same work, there is a beachside image. A rear view of her walking on the sand in a long blue dress. Both the image of the office with the employee ID and the image of the beach without it appear in a single work. Only this work has both.

On a green sofa, lying on her back, surrounded by multiple naked people, her mouth open. In another image, a hand rests on her cheek as she lies on her back, eyes closed, brow furrowed. The face of the person who counted again—did she miscalculate?—closes her eyes beneath someone’s hand on her cheek. She does not know whose hand it is.

In the work where the employee ID appears again, the color of the lanyard is different.

Pink Strap

Wearing a pink strap around her neck, Haru Shibasaki plays Shibasaki from accounting. With just one line from the product page, the character comes alive.

One day, a call girl you invited to your home turns out to be Shibasaki from accounting at your own company!? Shibasaki, who is always serious and strict, rejecting shady receipts, comes to your home as a call girl named “Pan,” and you end up being able to go all the way as payment for keeping quiet… (FANZA product page / Account department OL work description)

An accounting woman who rejects shady receipts comes to the home of a man from her same company as a call girl. In your company’s accounting department too, there’s one person with that face when rejecting receipts. The face of rejection and the face of permitting unprotected sex in exchange for silence exist in the same person. Her professional name is Pan, and she enters the house under a different name from accounting Shibasaki. Under the condition of payment for silence, unprotected sex is positioned as the price of the deal. As a call girl, she maintains the pretense of not allowing it; as an employee, she doesn’t want her side business discovered. There’s accounting Shibasaki standing in a place where she can’t maintain either position.

Glasses, a checkered blouse. A pink strap around her neck, leaning forward. A locker in the background. The strap is pink, not orange—it’s a work ID for the role. This is the only scene where she’s wearing glasses. The markers for the character Shibasaki from accounting are made of two things: glasses and a pink strap.

There’s one line on screen where the character’s pretense is stripped away.

In exchange for keeping my call girl work secret from the company, I get to do it raw…♡ (Account department OL work telop)

A close-up of her face, furrowed brows looking at the man. Her shoulders bare, the blouse off her shoulders. A vertical line of text overlays the screen.

It’s a transaction: keep quiet about this. The position that the person rejecting receipts should have held shifts to the man’s side with this single line.

Normally strict accounting Shibasaki orgasms immediately when penetrated deeply ❤ (Account department OL work telop)

A gap is promised, from “strict” to “doting immediately.” What’s promised is where the face of rejection falls apart.

The role of office worker comes around repeatedly. The person who was photographed wearing a real employee ID now plays an office worker wearing a prop ID.

A self-declaration from a year ago pairs with words spoken after finishing the transformative work.

“I was really passive, so I haven’t learned any sexual techniques yet.” (Yuuyake Taishuu, May 2023 interview)

Right after debut, she said she hadn’t learned any techniques. She was passive, the one being led.

“I think my fellatio is getting better little by little. Once I decided to do AV, I became conscious of being watched, bought dildos of various sizes, and practiced night after night (laughs).” (Yuuyake Taishuu, April 2024 interview)

From the moment she decided to appear, she practiced the technique of being the one being used. She bought dildos of various sizes, practicing at night. The person who was comparing dildos in a toy development work is also buying them for her own mouth. The person who goes to the man’s house in the accounting department work is the one who has practiced night after night.

In the bathroom, she keeps her black-framed glasses on, mouth open. Light blue bikini strings visible, bubbles scattered across her belly. The glasses she was wearing in front of the locker appear in this bathroom shot too. The marker for accounting Shibasaki remains on her face amid the bubbles. That the role’s marker remains on her face even when undressed mirrors how the office ID remained around her neck.

On the bed, lying on her back, mouth open. The pillow is checkered. There’s also a close-up of her face in profile with her eyes closed. The face introduced as “strict” is closed-eyed on the pillow.

Still Saying the Same Thing

In a private room, both arms extended forward. A black choker on her neck, pink shoulder straps on her shoulders. A project title appears in the onscreen banner. The hands that held a tablet at the office now spread wide open in the private room.

The project title appears in her latest work’s screen.

Flying fish roe insertion fried chicken set mission (Telop from the latest work)

The mission is to eat a fried chicken set while keeping flying fish roe inserted. A person who used to compare toys with her own body at the office is now receiving tasks in a izakaya private room.

The project description fits in the title alone.

Haru Shibasaki’s uncensored images sent all at once! Use amazing techniques to reverse-nampa customers at eating establishments! Instant oral sex, instant penetration SP (FANZA product page, work title)

She sends her own images to restaurant customers all at once to lure them. It’s changed from the Magic Mirror Number, where she invited one person at a time on the street, to dealing with multiple customers inside a store. This is the second reverse-nampa project since the Magic Mirror Number.

In a private room, mouth wide open in a smile. On the screen, “famous detective” and age appear. The same smile shape as when she held electric massagers in both hands at the office laughing, and when she stood on the street with mouth open laughing. Over three years with no department and no title, this smile is the only thing that hasn’t changed.

In a private room, raising beer glasses with two men, mouth open in a smile. A cream-colored ribbed knit top hangs off her shoulder. There are two men to toast with, both male. A person who stood on the street with sales pitches now raises glasses with two people in a store’s private room. The open-mouthed smile appears in front of the two men.

The screen still treats Haru Shibasaki as inexperienced.

Haru, who is also inexperienced in reverse-nampa in her private life. Can she really pick up an amateur? (Telop from the latest work)

In the orange glow of the night, the corners of her mouth rise in a close-up of her face. A white-reversed question appears over that face. Below the text asking “Can she do it?”, the corners of the mouth of the person being asked remain raised. A person whose face appeared on screen three years ago saying “There’s no way I could do this” is now placed again under the same question, mouth corners still raised.

She’s being asked if she can do it. She played the same role in the Magic Mirror Number, with “There’s no way I could do it…” appearing on the screen, and years later she stands before the same question again. This time, it’s the people around her asking if she can.

In close-up of her face, eyes closed, mouth open. On white sheets, lying on her back with both arms raised, a black choker still on her neck. The choker she wore in the private room is also around her neck on the sheets. A former employee who wore an office ID strap while undressing is now on the sheets three years later with the choker she wore in the store still around her neck.

The company counts a former employee years after resignation as a contemporary.

8/10 (Mon) SOD Peer Employee Event!! 2022 Entry Group Haru Shibasaki (@shibasakiharu2) Mai Onoderamai (@onoderamai_) Mizumoto Genui (@sod_kmkzcom) AV Director SODLAND 3F 19:00-23:00 (SOD LAND Official X announcement)

A resigned employee appears in the peer employee event bracket. Lined up are employees who entered the same year and a director who entered the same year. That director has directed her works.

As of September 2026, this director has directed two of Haru Shibasaki’s works. Directed by a director who entered the same year, standing alongside a peer who entered the same year, at an event planned by the company she quit.

She herself named having met employees first, before mentioning the event.

Thank you everyone who came to the SOD LAND event on the 10th 🥰🫶 Thanks to Mai-chan, Mizumoto-kun, and everyone, it was so much fun!!! 🥳 It was great to see the employees again after so long 🍀*゜ I hope we can do events together with the three of us again someday 😌💭 (User’s X post, August 2026)

The names of the peers appear before the visiting customers, followed by “the employees.” She assigns the single character of “luck” to having met the company’s employees after so long. The way she ends with “I hope we can do events together with the three of us again someday” are the words of someone who writes with the premise of being invited by the employee side’s event again.

The profile text on X and Instagram are aligned in the same single line.

Arm wrestling is a sign of friendship. A serious group is fun (User’s X and Instagram profile text)

That line is placed in the self-introduction sections of X (@shibasakiharu2) and Instagram (@shibasaki.haru).

Arm wrestling is a sign of friendship. It’s a way of speaking that counts a game with winners and losers as a means of getting closer. The image of her arm locked with a person in a black outfit on the debut work’s floor comes back with this line. The words “a serious group is fun” are also the words of a person who spoke of the production department from outside as “mind-blowingly good.” Even after entering, failing as a director, and quitting, she’s placing it as a single line describing herself. She hasn’t changed only her evaluation of the group.

Note: Product information is displayed in Japanese.

Perfect For

• People who want to watch works where the workplace itself is the setting: Both her debut and one of her research pieces were filmed at her actual workplace, with the camera operator being a coworker who sat at the next desk until yesterday. Even when naked, the orange strap around her neck remains.
• People who prefer her own words over promotional copy: Her interviews cover the department closure, how directing a scene caused the set to collapse, and her hesitations before quitting. The company also uses close-up video titles based on these accounts, so you can read it from both angles.
• People drawn to her short-haired presence: The ear-baring length has remained unchanged since her debut. The Magic Mirror vehicle hairstyle with bangs cut in a straight horizontal line is something she herself describes as a salon mistake.
• People looking for someone who convinces in an office worker role: She has both a work filmed with her actual employee ID for the Merchandise Division and a work where she played an Accounting Department role with a prop pink strap.

It’s Impossible, Yet Saying So

An employee who undressed to sell a fleshlight disappeared along with that entire division, the director’s project ended after a single piece, and yet she remained in front of the camera.

She says it’s impossible first, then others ask if it’s really possible, and finally she does it. The exceptions are when she decided to join, when she answered “only I can do this” to the AV debut offer, and when she called the content of her career-change work a “reward”—everything else follows the same pattern. She said it was impossible on the street, then reverse-picked someone up; she said it was clearly impossible, then signed an exclusive contract; in an interview she asked back “am I really open to this,” and five days after that interview was published, her career-change work was released. The latest piece’s screen is still asking if she can do this.

She says it before she’s told.

“I’m sure there are people who think, ‘You couldn’t accomplish anything during your time as an employee,’ but going forward I want to challenge myself in various ways as an exclusive actress for SODstar, set goals that I’m aiming for, and do my best to achieve them, so I hope you’ll support me!” (Yuyake Taishū, April 2024 interview)

She’s the one who said it first—“You couldn’t accomplish anything.” The fleshlight never reached the public, the director’s work ended after one piece. She didn’t hide that; instead she said she’d set new goals. With the fleshlight there was a form as a product, and with the director there was a form as a work. At this point, she doesn’t say what those goals she’s setting as an exclusive actress actually are. The works that came after answered how far those goals went.

Outside the frame, there’s an event scheduled in Akihabara on September 18, 2026. Just before that, on September 1, a digital photobook titled “Do Whatever You Like ◇” was released the same day as her latest work.

As of September 2026, all SOD works released through 2025 are included in the monthly unlimited viewing plan. The works released in 2026 are still sold individually only. All she needs to decide is which one to watch first.

There are free videos circulating. But if you stop there, you’ll miss the opening image of this woman’s work—herself in an employee badge hanging around her neck, testing a product with her own body at her workplace. If you want to support an actress you like, buy the official works on FANZA. When you buy them, the person who said it’s impossible is there on screen, showing her upper teeth in a smile.
