Lemon Hanazawa (Japanese: 華沢レモン, Hepburn: Hanazawa Lemon; born July 17, 1984), a.k.a. Remon Hanazawa, is a Japanese pink film actress who has also performed in adult videos (AV). She has appeared in award-winning pink films such as Lunch Box (2004) and Molester's Train: Sensitive Fingers (2007). She was named "Best New Actress" for her work in this genre in 2004, and "Best Actress" second place in 2005 at the Pink Grand Prix.[2][3] The Kansai region Pinky Ribbon Awards chose Hanazawa for Best Supporting Actress in 2005, and Outstanding Performance by an Actress in 2007.[4]
Key Information
Career
[edit]Hanazawa began working in adult videos at least as early as December 2003 when she took part in the "train molester" video Chikan deruta haji tai (痴漢デルタ恥帯) for the Starboard (スターボード) studio.[5] In May 2004, she appeared with Sakura Sakurada in the lesbian-themed Female-Littered Lesbian Neruton (女だらけのレズねるとん) for the Moodyz studio[6] and has also performed in a number of other adult videos for various studios.[7]
Hanazawa made her pink film debut in Shinji Imaoka's Lunch Box (March 2004), which was selected as Best Film at the 2004 Pink Grand Prix.[8] In the film, Hanazawa plays the role of one of star Yumika Hayashi's co-workers and sexual rivals. Her performance in this film earned her a "Best New Actress" award at the 2004 Pink Grand Prix, beating popular AV idol Sora Aoi, who had also made her pink film debut that year.[8][9] During 2004 Hanazawa performed in 20 of these theatrical pink film releases.[8] Her performance in Akira Katō's Teacher with Beautiful Skin: Big Tit Vibe-Torture (2005), earned her the Best Actress, 2nd place award at the 2005 Pink Grand Prix ceremony.[3]
In his book Behind the Pink Curtain: The Complete History of Japanese Sex Cinema, Jasper Sharp uses one of Hanazawa's scenes in Yutaka Ikejima's Family Gets Rude Chapter 1: Perverts' Fun (2004) to illustrate the creative means pink film directors employ to suggest more than is legally possible in Japanese softcore pornography. Hanazawa masturbates in a scene that Sharp characterizes as "pretty lewd", yet she is seen only in soft focus in the background. The foreground focus of the camera is a bouquet of flowers, behind which the masturbating Hanazawa moans, "Look at my flower!"[10]
Besides Imaoka and Ikejima, other major pink film directors in whose films Hanazawa has appeared include Toshiki Satō (Tokyo Booty Nights, 2004), Tetsuya Takehora (Peep Show, 2004), Yumi Yoshiyuki, Sachi Hamano, and Yoshikazu Katō. Katō's Molester's Train: Sensitive Fingers (2007) gave Hanazawa a second appearance in a Pink Grand Prix Best Film-winner.[11] The film was also given the Gold Prize at the Pinky Ribbon Awards.[4]
Hanazawa also appeared with Kyōko Kazama, Akiho Yoshizawa and Mihiro in the Edo period historical costume drama, The Inner Palace: Indecent War, in July 2006. A sequel The Inner Palace: Flower of War came out in August of the same year. The two videos were released by AV studio Max-A in hardcore versions under their DoraMax label and also shorter softcore R-15 rated versions for the Pure Max label.[12][13][14]
In February 2008, Hanazawa had a supporting role in the mainstream horror film Rika: The Zombie Killer starring Risa Kudō.[15] The movie, described by one reviewer as an "outrageously silly film",[16] was released on DVD with English subtitles in September 2009.[17] Hanazawa was one of several colleagues and friends who appeared in Korean-Japanese director Tetsuaki Matsue's 2009 documentary on Yumika Hayashi, Annyeong Yumika (あんにょん由美香, An nyon Yumika).

Personal background
Early life
Lemon Hanazawa was born on July 17, 1984, in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. Little is known about her upbringing or education.Family and personal relationships

Details regarding Hanazawa's marital status, family life, and personal relationships remain private, with no publicly available information from verified sources indicating marriage, children, or relocations tied to a spouse. Following her involvement in the adult film and pink film sectors, she has largely withdrawn from public view, leading to limited insights into her current residence or lifestyle changes.Professional career
Industry debut
Lemon Hanazawa entered the adult entertainment industry at the age of 19.[4][5] She made her professional debut in the adult video (AV) sector in October 2003, appearing in the title Miru SPO! Tsuji Sayaka (under the stage name Tsuji Sayaka), a sports-oriented production released by the Milky Purin studio.[6] In December 2003, she appeared in Chikan deruta haji tai (Molester's Delusion Graduate), a "train molester" themed production released by the Starboard studio.[4][5] This marked her further steps into the field, with no prior agency affiliations or scouting details publicly documented in available records.[4] Her entry was met with immediate industry interest, as evidenced by her rapid accumulation of roles in the following year, though specific initial challenges remain unreported in primary sources.[4]Adult video work
Hanazawa's post-debut adult video output in the 2003–2005 period included several releases that showcased her versatility within the genre, with a focus on youthful and exploratory themes. Her AV persona during this era evolved from straightforward schoolgirl roles with molestation undertones to more intimate lesbian explorations, broadening her appeal in the direct-to-video market.[6] In 2004, Hanazawa collaborated with Image/Angel studio on Strip Volleyball Club: Let's Go to the World! (released September 20, 2004), where she portrayed a member of a stripping volleyball team, emphasizing schoolgirl dynamics and playful molestation elements common in her early portfolio.[6] She also worked with Moodyz for All Women Lesbian Night Talk (released August 31, 2004), an all-female production exploring lesbian interactions in a talk-show format.[7] Later that year, in November, she starred in Schoolgirls Innocent Lesbian (code: NOV-8276) from the Nov label under Kasakurashuppan Sha, delving into innocent lesbian encounters among schoolgirls, with co-stars including Nina Koizumi and Nana Miyaji. Additional 2004 releases included High School Fuck (released December 18, 2004), a collaboration featuring Hanazawa alongside actresses such as Rena Hamasaki, Marin Natsu, and Kaho Noguchi, centered on high school molestation and group scenarios.[8] These titles, totaling at least five in 2004 alone, illustrate her frequent partnerships with mid-tier studios like Moodyz and Angel, which specialized in niche schoolgirl and emerging lesbian subgenres.[6]Pink film roles
Lemon Hanazawa made her debut in the pink film genre in March 2004 with Lunch Box (original title: Tamamono), directed by Shinji Imaoka. In the film, she portrayed Ikumi Kato, a co-worker and sexual rival in a narrative exploring themes of obsession and desire centered around a middle-aged woman's fixation on testicles. The production received critical acclaim, winning the Best Film award at the 2004 Pink Grand Prix.[9] That same year, Hanazawa demonstrated remarkable productivity, appearing in 20 theatrical pink films, which solidified her presence in the industry during her debut period. Her roles often emphasized sensual and narrative-driven performances typical of the genre, blending erotic elements with storytelling. Notable 2004 collaborations included works with director Yutaka Ikejima, such as The Japanese Wife Next Door, where she played a supporting role in an erotic comedy exploring neighborly temptations and infidelity.[10] Hanazawa continued to build her reputation with key roles in subsequent years, including the lead in Molester’s Train: Sensitive Fingers (2007), directed by Yoshikazu Katō. The film, part of the long-running Chikan Densha series, focuses on themes of public molestation and escalating sexual tension on commuter trains, earning the Best Film award at the 2007 Pink Grand Prix and highlighting Hanazawa's ability to anchor intense, genre-specific narratives.[11] In 2008, she ventured into a mainstream crossover with a supporting role as a maid in Rika: The Zombie Killer, directed by Ken'ichi Fujiwara. This action-horror film marked a departure from pure pink cinema, featuring zombie-apocalypse elements and showcasing Hanazawa's versatility beyond erotic content. Her involvement in award-winning pink films, including multiple collaborations with prolific directors like Yutaka Ikejima in titles such as Sexy Secretary: Wetting Pantyhose (2005), underscored her impact on the genre's evolution toward more polished, story-oriented productions.[12][13][14]Recognition and legacy
Awards
Lemon Hanazawa received several accolades in the pink film industry, primarily from the Pink Grand Prix and the Kansai region's Pinky Ribbon Awards, recognizing her early breakthrough performances and consistent contributions to the genre.[2] In 2004, at the Pink Grand Prix ceremony, Hanazawa was awarded Best New Actress for her role as Ikumi Kato in Shinji Imaoka's Lunch Box (Tamamono), a film that also secured the Best Film honor, highlighting her immediate impact as a newcomer in pink cinema.[2][15] The following year, 2005, she earned second place in the Best Actress category at the Pink Grand Prix for her performance in Akira Katō's Teacher with Beautiful Skin: Big Tit Vibe-Torture, reflecting her growing prominence. Additionally, the Pinky Ribbon Awards named her Best Supporting Actress for her work in various Kansai-produced pink films that year.[2] By 2007, Hanazawa's versatility was further acknowledged with the Outstanding Performance by an Actress award from the Pinky Ribbon Awards, honoring her sustained excellence in the regional pink film scene.[2] No other formal nominations or honorary mentions in major pink film award circles have been documented for Hanazawa.[2]Influence and later activities
Hanazawa's performances during the 2000s contributed to the revitalization of the pink film genre, which experienced a resurgence amid competition from adult videos and changing distribution models. Her roles in films directed by prominent figures like Yutaka Ikejima exemplified the era's blend of eroticism, humor, and social commentary, helping sustain independent studios such as Shintōhō Eiga. Jasper Sharp's historical analysis of Japanese sex cinema highlights Hanazawa's work, including a notable scene from Family Gets (2005), as emblematic of the genre's creative evolution and efforts to attract broader audiences through innovative storytelling.[16] In 2008, Hanazawa achieved a mainstream crossover with her supporting role in the zombie horror-comedy Rika: The Zombie Killer (also known as Zombie Hunter Rika), directed by Ken'ichi Fujiwara. This film, part of the "Nihonbī" series of Japanese zombie productions, departed from pink film conventions by emphasizing action and gore over explicit content, earning theatrical release in Japan and international DVD distribution through ADV Films. The project expanded her visibility beyond niche erotic cinema, showcasing her versatility in a genre blending high school drama with undead mayhem, and it received coverage in global film outlets for its cult appeal.[17] After her final credited appearance in the 2009 documentary Annyon Yumika, Hanazawa's public activities appear to have ceased, with no documented film appearances, writing projects, or media interviews emerging in subsequent years. This hiatus aligns with patterns seen among pink film actresses of the era, who often transitioned out of the industry amid its declining theatrical viability; however, details on her retirement or personal life remain private and unreported as of 2025.Selected works
