Shemale Japan

I am very sadden today at ShemaleJapan and will probably be cancelling my account with that website. Today i logged on and saw a new set of Rina, one of my favorite models on this site. I have been a member of this site for a very long time. So as i was going through my hard drive i found this exact set from a few years ago. So they have taken this set, added a yesterday date to it and there you have it a "new" set! Bullshit! I left a comment in the comment section of the of new set but it was not put up. Also, all the set of Rina that were on ShemaleJapan have been taken down, and there was quite a few of them! Does this make anybody else mad?

Yes, several of the recent updates are old sets from 5 or so years ago being recycled. This site has really struggled since the original photographer left. So disappointing.

We're having problems sourcing new uncensored content from Japan due to some changes in the laws. We've be forced to make some changes to the site and I appreciate that this will disappoint some long term members, but we continue to offer the largest database of Japanese transsexual porn at excellent value for money. We are currently bringing all the older content to the highest level we can and will continue to look for options of how we can get uncensored content for the site. Thank you - Alexander Grooby (for Grooby Steven)

Also if there are any longer term members of the site, who wish to cancel, contact us at customerservice@grooby.com and we'll switch the remainder of your time to another site of your choice.

We're still holding out for new content - but given the current climate of the porn industry there, it's not something that I can guarantee.

That's incorrect, it's been updating as regular with new models and bringing back old ones and we didn't miss an update until this current development.

Fair enough, the updates have been regular and the quality of the sets has been of the same high standard, but in my opinion, and I admit this is very subjective, the stars of this site such as Karina Shiratori, Serina, Miran as so on, came from the early years. Unfortunately, it is tough to run a site like shemalejapan without a Japanese national on the ground doing the leg work.

Mr GSteven,
With all due respect, why would members not be made aware of the 'current state' of affairs. That would have been the proper thing to do instead of having us pay for the same content we already paid for, as well as deleting them from the model page thereby creating the illusion that the sets are new. Not terribly forthright I am afraid. pretty sorry explanation.

I am a former subscriber to shemale japan and shemale japan hardcore and still following those sites weekly for new releases in order to find the best moment to subscribe again. And I have been highly disappointed to notice that since a couple of weeks, the new releases are in fact very old videos . I find that practice quite unfair . Now I understand that the reason is that Grooby is facing regulatory issues with Japanese authorities.
I hope that Grooby will succeed in achieving a successful conclusion to this problem, I would be sad to see those sites disappear. For sure , I cannot renew my subscription in the current situation.

yes I am sadly disappointed with the site, but living in Japan i do understand about the censoring. All the porn i have seen here in Japan is like this. I have to admit i do like the new model Aki, more of her please, however i am tired of seeing photo sets taken by Hiro, when i see these i know they re published sets, sad!

The average member on most sites stays about 80 days, which is less than 3 billing periods. For those who stay that time (or less) or many more months, they will never see the same content and get phenomenal amount of quality material for what is a very little cost and the majority of them leave happy. Even for those who are longer term members, you're getting access to a huge amount of material and the back catalogues (as well as brand new updated bonus material). I've stated above, any other long term members can contact us and we'll switch them elsewhere.
We're a business, we've invested an large amount of money into each site and we run those sites to the best of our abilities to be profitable and to be able to re-invest in new products. The best option for Shemale Japan was to continue running it and spend some time redoing the older content for those who wanted it in the new formats and better quality, and to keep the site running as good product that continues to be value for money. I do appreciate why a few people are upset, but it's out of our hands.

I have to say; If this site goes to the wall, I will be truly gutted. I've been a member off & on since just after it started. I adore Japanese new halves!

We have no plans to close this site Peejaye.

Phew, thanks.:)

Is there any update about possibly new content once things get back to normal? They're are a lot of gorgeous new trans JAV stars popping up.

Unlikely. Japan's laws changed and it's almost impossible to get models for non-mosaiced shoots.

Jillette, the bottom line for ANY customer is whether or not they enjoy the site and the girls. Do you enjoy TGJ and the updates? Who cares if the sets are from 2008-2012? Sometimes, producers bring back models they shot way back to every one delight. I do not understand the hang-up on this. Unless someone is a hoarder of material originally posted 10-12 years ago, well that person would be in the 0.01% of repeated customers. You should be mindful that it is hard enough to get content from Japan. The site is for "entertainment" purposes and they have plenty to offer in that department if you ask me...

The tgirl japan hardcore content is amazing! I've subscribed to most of the major tgirl sites, but so far this one is my favorite.

I really enjoy the more natural look of the japanese models (no tattoos, no edgy makeup or piercings), as well as the videographer's skill at getting good angles and lighting to capture the model's facial expressions and reactions. I find it much more erotic to see how the model reacts to taking the D, rather than focusing on a closeup of the genital interaction.

I also like the angles the videographer selects (above and off to the side), which give a much more "three dimensional" feel to the video, as contrasted to shooting directly from above the model or directly from the side of the model.

The way the japan site has really long shots with the actors in one position (rather than having several shorter shorter shots, trying to fit in multiple coupling positions) is a great video technique, as it gives time for the chemistry to build, as well as giving the viewer time to really get into the scene.

The schoolgirl content (which seems to be a japan-specific thing) is also really hot. Back in the 90's there used to be (in the USA) sort of a similar thing, with the girls wearing girl scout or cheerleader outfits, but sadly this seems to have passed out of fashion.

Bummer about the japan law change, which apparently makes it much harder to source new japanese content.

It would be interesting if (perhaps on another grooby site) more ethnic content were added (chinese tgirls, middle eastern tgirls, mexican tgirls, eastern european tgirls, etc). Variety is the spice of life.

Russian girls, and European (which include Eastern Europe) are on the network - you can join via Russian-Tgirls, UKTgirls, Euro-Tgirls, etc and get access to all those sites under one price.
Chinese/Korean and most of Asia impossible because of laws.
Middle Eastern are extremely rare - and also impossible because of laws and religion in those countries (we've had them in the US tho).
Mexican - quite a lot already on Tgirls.xxx and some on GroobyGirls (and lot's of Mexicans living in the US). We've a potential new producer in Mexico also.

Always excited for new producers!
