Company information

edit

Waap Entertainment was founded in 1998 and released its first videos in December of that year.[2] The company specializes in single actress videos and is best known for its Dream Shower (ドリームシャワー, Doriimu Shawaa) series which premiered on December 17, 1998, with Dream Shower No.1 starring Izumi Maki and directed by Alala Kurosawa.[2][3] The series is part bukkake and part gangbang[4] and has appeared in more than sixty installments on the company's Beauty label.[5] The studio is also recognized for having developed several prominent modern AV directors including Alala Kurosawa, [Jo]Style, K*WEST and KINGDOM.[6]

When S1 No. 1 Style introduced the new less concealing digital mosaic style of censorship in late 2004, Waap followed soon afterward with their own Digital Mosaic (デジエロモザイク, Dejieromozaiku) videos.[7] Waap Entertainment produces about 10 new videos per month[8] and the Hokuto Corporation's AV retailer DMM listed more than 1500 DVD titles available under the Waap Entertainment name as of September 2011.[9]

The company's reputation has extended to the Village Voice where columnist Johnny Maldoro named Waap's video Semen Club 2 (ザーメンクラブ2) starring Yui Kayama as the Bukkake Best of 2003.[10] Waap has also expanded into another area of entertainment with game, puzzle and photo collection apps for the iPhone featuring some of the studio's top models.[11]
