Company information

[edit]

IdeaPocket split off from the Attackers corporation and was founded as a separate entity in 2002[1] under the umbrella of the Hokuto Corporation group of companies.[2] It had previously been a stand-alone label used on works produced by the Attackers studio in their "Angel" series of cosplay videos to distinguish them from the more hardcore simulated rape movies produced for the Attackers Shark label.[1] The first of the "Angel" videos, released in December 1998 and labeled AN-001, starred actress Ryo Hitomi[3][4] while a later installment in the series featured AV Idol Sally Yoshino.[5] Further labels were later added[6] and the company now has a reputation as one of the top studios in the Japanese adult video industry combining high production values and good performances.[7]

The company website, www.ideapocket.com, which has been online since June 19, 2002, has an audience drawn almost 79% from Japan and about 3% each from Hong Kong, the United States, and Indonesia.[8] IdeaPocket releases about 17-18 videos per month comprising both original works and compilations[9] and the large Japanese online video distributor DMM (part of the Hokuto Corporation) listed more than 1175 DVD and nearly 450 VHS titles available under the IdeaPocket name in mid-2010.[10] Several of the studio's new videos have also been released in Blu-ray format.[11] IdeaPocket released its first 3D video, 3D Mayu Nozomi (3D 希美まゆ), starring Mayu Nozomi, on September 1, 2011.[12] In April 2013, IdeaPocket started a working relationship with professional wrestling promotion Union Pro Wrestling, which led to the introduction of the World Aipoke Championship title.[13]

At present, the company retails most of their content via their official website and Hokutu Corporation's DMM and Fanza platforms, generating hundreds of millions in sales globally. In fact, many fans have even requested that the company incorporate subtitles as part of their videos to enhance the viewing experience.[14][15]

Moodyz Awards
