Another top-tier production powerhouse has been claimed by major studios!MUDR-283
This trend is becoming more evident in the industry: rather than allowing talent to freely switch between studios, studios are securing exclusive contracts with standout performers. This time, the sought-after star is the petite, natural-haired actress Sumire Kuramoto (倉本すみれ), and what’s remarkable is the lineup of studios involved:
Just like Alice Nanase (七瀬アリス), Sumire Kuramoto has landed exclusive contracts with three prestigious studios: Muku, Honnaka, and DAS!. Traditionally, Muku, known for its school uniform-themed productions, rarely signs exclusive deals, but this time they’ve joined the game. The reason is simple: Kuramoto is perfect for school uniform roles, and her petite frame isn’t a fit for studios like E-Body or OPPAI.
Why three studios, not just two?
While E-Body and OPPAI weren’t suitable choices, why did she sign with three studios instead of two? The answer lies in meeting her salary expectations. While stability is a priority for any actress, the reality of the industry is negotiating how much they can earn per month and whether it’s worth it compared to non-exclusive work. This is where negotiations come into play, focusing on pay and the number of scenes to shoot per month. For actresses wanting to earn more, more work is required. This explains why some actresses settle for dual studio contracts, while Sumire Kuramoto opted for three. The agreement was reached after balancing her desired earnings, her capacity to handle the workload, and the studios’ interest.
Muku joined this strategic partnership, solidifying Kuramoto’s return as a school-uniformed beauty. With her charming face and distinctive natural hair, the combination is powerful, comparable to donning golden armor. Fans of playful older men tormenting the young ingenue can look forward to exciting new releases. The next question to watch is what kind of themes the other two studios will develop and how they plan their release schedules—whether it will be three films per month or rotating selections among the three.
In any case, congratulations to Sumire Kuramoto! However, this also means she won’t have the flexibility to participate in a variety of productions like before, as she is now firmly tied to these three studios—a mixed blessing for some fans.
