Interviewer: Anyway, let's talk about your debut video. Since it's directed by Tatsuya Aoki, there's been a lot of talk on-line about it being a "Juice" video (*Jiru-mono) Natsume: What's a "Juice" video?

Interviewer: Another way of saying Bukkake and the like

Natsume: Oh, like with lots of swallowing? It's not that.

Interviewer: That's what I thought. I guess it'd be more of the traditional lines since it's with someone as beautiful as yourself.

Natsume: It was a very well made video.

Interviewer: So how was it like to work with Aoki as the director?

Natsume: He was nice. He filmed me in Osaka before we did the actual shot in Tokyo and he told me that I was the type who was liked by most people. I tend to be pretty persuasive so even people who don't agree with me usually end up going along with things my way.

Interviewer: Were you always like that?

Natsume: I'm not sure. I hope not, but I think it's too late to fix it now.

Interviewer: I bet you have a lot of friends.

Natsume: Not really. I have a hard time opening up to most people I meet.

Interviewer: What about guys?

Natsume: Just about as much as anyone else. I might have more guy friends actually.

Interviewer: What do you usually do together?

Natsume: Baseball. I've been pretty busy recently so I haven't had the chance to play for a while.

Interviewer: So what have you been doing since you've graduated high school? Natsume: Just a lot of part time work. Helping around the house, working at a restaurant, assistant to a dentist, and even a bit of real estate. I didn't stick with it for too long though.

Interviewer: Ah. You get sick of things easily.

Natsume: I like to try new things but I tend to quit after getting a taste. Like that dental assistant thing. I started it because I was curious as to what type of things I would be doing but I was just doing support work for the dentist so I quit.

Interviewer: I understand how to feel. Learning to the job is often the most interesting part.

Natsume: That's why I think I'm suited to this type of work. Since the things I'll be doing will be different for every shoot, there'll be enough change to keep me interested.

Interviewer: Did you want to become an actress when you were in high school?

Natsume: Not really. I'm a pretty shy girl. I was more focused on doing things that came to my mind. I might've wanted to become an actress back then, but I never seriously thought that I would become one. Now I think I can do anything I put my mind to.

Interviewer: When did you first get scouted?

Natsume: When I was 20. A guy came up to me in Osaka and offered me a job in Tokyo. The first thing I did was a magazine shoot for GOKUH. Then I was in the Photobook "727" and an Image DVD called "nana". That was the last thing I did for 6 months so I was getting a bit worried but then I got jobs to do spreads for both the "Weekly Gendai" and the "Weekly Post".

Interviewer: So you've been doing nude shots since the beginning?

Natsume: Only for one of the shoots. I was so embarrassed that I was sweating by the time I was naked.

Interviewer: What did you do during the 6 months you didn't have any work?

Natsume: Oh, just some part-time work and staying at home for the most part. I wasn't really all that worried.

Interviewer: What kind of girl were you as a child?

Natsume: A bit of a tomboy. I was always looking after my brothers and playing with them all the time.

Interviewer: Your first love?

Natsume: I don't really remember. I would either have to be the guy I lost my virginity to during my second year of Jr. High or before that...ah, when I first started Jr. High! There was this guy I really liked back then and somehow other students found about it. So he actually came up to me to ask me out but we broke up after 1 day. He wasn't the guy I thought he was. He was this tall guy on the basketball team. Man, my eyes must've been really bad back then because when I saw him up close... Interviewer: Were you breasts big even back then?

Natsume: They started growing during my 2nd semester of my first year of Jr high. I was an E cup by 8th grade. I used to wear only sports bras but my friends talked me out of it.

Interviewer: So how was it like to lose your virginity?

Natsume: I never really thought much about virginity. I was interested so I did it.

Interviewer: With who?

Natsume: He was a year older than me and attended a different Jr. high school. We started going out before even getting to really know each other. We went on a couple of dates and then we fucked. We broke up not too long afterwards.

Interviewer: How many people have you had sex with since then?

Natsume: 3

Interviewer: What kind of sex do you prefer?

Natsume: The normal kind, with lots of loving.

Interviewer: Are you okay with doing it in a bright place?

Natsume: No way! I always tell them to turn off the lights.

Interviewer: So you've never taken a close look at a dick before you started doing AVs?

Natsume: I never really stared at it, no. Why do guys want to keep the lights on?

Interviewer: We need something to rev us up.

Natsume: Really? Can't you just settle for the feel? I mean, there's all this business with going to baths together and everything. Well, I'm okay with it now though. Still, in the old days, people wouldn't strip unless it was dark.

Interviewer: But you look great.

Natsume: I never really liked how big my breasts were. At first when guys were like "Man, they're big." I had no idea what they were talking about.

Interviewer: So you don't like guys that are after you breasts?

Natsume: Before I was like "Don't look at them!". Now it's more like "Here! Stare all you want."

Interviewer: So if someone wanted to fuck your titties you wouldn't let them? Natsume: The first time I did that was on tape.

Interviewer: Seriously!?

Natsume: Seriously. It's not meant for that. I'd prefer the lights off even for things like blowjobs.

Interviewer: How about a blindfold instead?

Natsume: You pervert! Don't you know embarrassing it is for one person to be able to look at you when you can't do the same?

Interviewer: Is there anything that holds you back during sex?

Natsume: It wasn't something I noticed until I started doing filming, but I really don't like sex unless its with someone I love. I also don't like how some guys go away right after having sex. I get so lonely afterwards. I'm okay with it now though.

Interviewer: When do you think your attitudes started changing?

Natsume: I'm not sure. I was still really embarrassed about these things when I was doing the photo spreads.

Interviewer: Did you ever want to be on top?

Natsume: No, never. I always left everything to the guy. I never got the feeling that I should be doing anything. I guess it has to do with the type of guys I went out with.

Interviewer: Maybe you just never had a good sex experience before you started disliking sex.

Natsume: Maybe. It's still embarrassing to do the tapes, but I know that it's okay as long as I enjoy myself. I try to focus on trying to make both myself and my partner feel good now.

Interviewer: Is your body sensitive? Like, do you get wet easily?

Natsume: Well...I do get wet easily, but not when I'm tense. I don't have a boyfriend right now so it's not like I'd really know how it's like now.

Interviewer: So nothing but masturbating?

Natsume: I don't masturbate. What I did on video was my first time.

Interviewer: Really? (laughs)

Natsume: The director was really surprised too. He was telling me how even little kids masturbate nowadays.

Interviewer: So how did it feel when you did it?

Natsume: Good. I was thinking about experimenting with it a bit more, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Interviewer: How about just getting a boyfriend?

Natsume: I do want one, but I'm busy with lots of stuff right now. I want to be alone at times, but I am I get lonely. I sometimes keep the TV and lights on when I go to sleep.

Interviewer: So you ever want to get married?

Natsume: No. I do want kids though.

Interviewer: What kinds of guys are you attracted to?

Natsume: No one too rich, but not too poor either. It's okay to be poor but to show it is a bit...you know how some people try to get others to treat them out and stuff because they have no money? I hate those type of people. I also want someone who's more mature than I am. Interviewer: Like who, for example?

Natsume: Ray Sefo

Interviewer: Ah, the K-1 fighter. What part of a man do you find the most attractive?

Natsume: His beard and his chest.

Interviewer: See, that's the exact same reason why guys like to stare at your breasts.

Natsume: I sympathize.

Interviewer: Now to switch topics...you've been on some late night shows in Osaka?

Natsume: On Girls' File and Cure Sick Night.

Interviewer: It's too bad that only people living in the Kansai Area can tune in.

Natsume: Yeah...oh, I did so some Internet stuff though.

Interviewer: What do you think is the thing that stands out of the most in your debut video?

Natsume: Just how embarrassed I look during the entire thing.

Interviewer: I remember there's this scene where the director tells you to take off your panties with your mini-skirt still on, and then tells you to sit down and spread your legs...

Natsume: Yeah, I was about to cry right there.

Interviewer: You looked okay when I was on set, but I guess you really were embarrassed.

INatsume: guess it'll wear off as I do more videos. So if anything, I think it'll be the big thing that sets the debut video apart.

Interviewer: You're signed up for 6 tapes at the moment, right?

Natsume: Yeah, but I plan on doing more. I'll probably stick with SOD the entire way though.

Interviewer: Demand all the way, I see.

Natsume: I get the feeling that they'll give me a lot of flexibility with the type of work I'll be doing. I think I'm suited to it. It's just like what it says on the video's back cover. I'm a girl who likes to experience a lot of things and I like how doing this type of work seems to kindle feelings that I've forgotten. Like yesterday, I was crying by the end of the event. All that pent up nervousness just came out all out once.

Interviewer: I hope your fans can see that side of you soon.

Natsume: Yeah.

Interviewer: So is there a specific goal for your AV career?

Natsume: Just to go up as high as possible.

Interviewer: So you think that you started on your goal when you saw Ai Kurosawa take the award for outstanding actress yesterday?

Natsume: I haven't even started. I don't think I can even think in those terms until I get to a point where I can do all the types of things that I'm expected to do. I want to make videos that my fans will be thrilled to jerk off to.

Interviewer: ...although you don't masturbate yourself.

Natsume: I will from now on. I was thinking about buying a vibrator on the way back, actually...
