While browsing through the Twitterverse I came across a post form Nica Noelle saying she just booked Katsuni for a scene for Sweeheart Video. "I'm excited! Just booked Katsuni! She's been unattainable for soooo long." Then a few posts later. "Yep! She's a free agent!" She's no longer listed as a contract gril on the Spiegler Girls' website is is listed as available for work. Katsuni's Spiegler Girl profile Perhaps Shylock would be so kind as to confim or deny this as I can't find any info on a AVN or XBiz. Edit: Removed the question mark from title, now that the news has been confirmed by Shylock. Edited by - jman5245 on Dec 8 2010 Edited by - bono-ONE on Oct 24 2011

Definitely good news. I will say that I don't think she recieved anywhere near the level of recognition she deserved at DP. She was one of the it girls back in the day. Especially in terms of asian women. Nice to see her rejoin the ranks of girls like Asa Akira & London Keys. *****The Dr. of Nasty*****
No problem. Katsuni will only be in L.A. for the last two weeks of December but she has already been booked by Girlfriends Films, Elegant Angel, Mile High/Sweet Sinner, KellyMadison.Com & Holly Randall (with more to come).

If you're talking about potential, then you may have a point. But if you're talking about past or classic collaborations, oddly enough Katsumi (I will never call her "Katsuni" and I imagine that she'll be going back to this name since Digital Playground likely owns the other) only did one movie for Elegant: "Slave Dolls 2" which was directed by their (and OUR) own ^ Graham Travis. She has many more unforgettable scenes with EVIL Angel. The most memorable ones, of course, coming in those final two "Fashionista" sequels. As a fan, I was surprised back when Digital Playground signed her to an exclusive performer contract; companies like DP don't usually lock down or even go after talent who has some 250+ scenes under their garter and have been around the business so long that others might consider them "shot out." As a tit man, I'm happy to see her freelancing in the gonzo realm again because now I don't have to watch a DP movie to see that awesome boob upgrade she got when she galloped off into the sunset with that horse head company.

Katsuni's name change had nothing to do with DP but was due to a legal issue in Europe. I believe there is a thread about it here. So I am fairly certain there is no "going back" to Katsumi. I have always found it amusing that no one ever puts out a press release when a contract star goes away. They just fall off the press releases and promo stuff all very hush hush.
^^^ Correct. The was an an article about it in AVN: "Katsumi Changes Stage Name" Basically, a woman in France with the same name sued Katsumi and won, forcing her to change her name or pay royalties every time the name was used. Hence, she changed the spelling to Katsuni. Personally, the name change doesn't bother me at all. It's such a minor difference in spelling it's barely noticable.
Yeah the name change was stupid because French courts are stupid. No court in the US would ever rule against her over a one word name. That be like a person saying they are suing because another person is using the name John in a career that they don't like and might be confused. GTFOH! They would be laughed out of court. Maybe if a person used another person's full name and/or intentionally was trying to copy someone famous, etc. Then I could see it. But a 1 part name that happens to be the same as one of the random 500 million people in the country, never. You would think that with all the time the French spend dodging battles that they would be able to implement a just, smart, non biased court system. *****The Dr. of Nasty*****
^They(WWE) weren't legally forced to change their name. Vince McMahon just decided to avoid the whole international legal battle with Wildlife. It was also the start of a new era so he just decided to go with the WWE marketing thing. Also, they can still use the name if they choose. It only becomes an issue when/if they ever try to use it over in the UK.
Well it looks like Katsuni's scene today went very well. A threeway with Asa Akira and Manuel Ferrara for Nica Noelle's Sweet Sinner line. When Manuel says it was the best threeway he's ever done, that is saying something. "I think today was the best 3way scene I ever did."
Actually, it's if they use it OUTSIDE of the UK. "However, WWE was mandated to issue newly branded merchandise such as apparel, action figures, video games, and DVDs with the "WWE" initials. Additionally, the court order required the company to remove both auditory and visual references to "WWF" in its library of video footage outside of the United Kingdom." These mandates and requirements don't sound voluntary to me. But enough of all that: Here's a pic of Asa Akira and Katsunipre-scene. Edited by - Crucifixio_Jones on 12/20/2010 7:56:36 AM
^I don't know, I may be wrong about this but I don't think that is a legit source. WWE was never trialed by a US court. They were trialed and judged by The Law Lords over in the UK. So I don't see how a UK based legal system can mandate anyone in the US and say "you can't use the your initials WWF anywhere else but in our own country". They(WWE) could have just told them to fuck off and lost the UK audience but kept the name if they wanted to. I remember Mc Mahon saying that he didn't want a long drawn out battle with them over the name so he just agreed and decided to change it. Edit: Also that first sentence about them being mandated to brand all their merchandise with WWE is incorrect to. No one can mandate anyone to change their name or logo to an exact name of something else. Vince and his people came up with the WWE thing at the end of the attitude era. They weren't mandated to change it to the WWE. They could have changed it to anything if they wanted to. This sentence is what leads me to believe that the person who wrote it has no clue as to what he or she is talking about. *****The Dr. of Nasty***** Edited by - Dr. Nasty on 12/20/2010 12:25:30 PM
I don't really wanna debate this any further but I don't think the mandate was about what they called themselves; of course that much was up to them. So you misunderstood. The mandate wasn't about making them call their company WWE, it was just mandated that any merch from then on out had to be branded with their new logo or initials (whatever they chose) just not "WWF" any longer. Anyway...I got it. Digital Playground doesn't own the name Katsuni. I missed that memo. But that was literally ONE sentence (in parentheses, no less) in my entire post. Are we gonna continue to harp on that (or this silly WWE/WWF nonsense) or actually talk about Katsumi's return? [Link]
I never liked those Evil Angel theme films like "Fashionista". The lighting is always too dark and too much artistic work with the editing. I preferred her in "Invasian", "Double Parked" (great stockings) and some of those Red Light movies like "Full Anal Access 5". In the earlier scene she does with Lex in "Lex Steele 3" she looks stunning. Does she exercise and is she a French or American citizen? Does she like California? She's one of the sultrier, sexy performers I've seen over the last decade. I also thought Miko Lee was extremely sexy and a great performer. Both of whom loved anal which blew my mind. Oh, I love the fact that she keeps a bush. It would be sexy to see her go bald for a scene or a nice landing strip.

The powerfull combination of Katsuni's new look, highly verbal style (french accent too), and agressive attitude is so, so gorgeous! :D Now she looks like a cute and sexy stuffed fox. One of the best female stars of last 10 years! Her passion for rough sex impresses me too much! Vive la Katsuni à nouveau! Edited by - adultsurfer on 2/15/2012 7:58:45 PM
OK, I just saw a scene of hers for Porn Fidelity from this month, and she was in top form, especially at the end - she finishes the guy off with her hands and mouth, he blows a big load in her mouth but she never stops sucking and keeps sucking and playing with his cock afterwards (love that), then he fucks her again hard and fast for about a minute, pulls out and shoots another load on her face and in her mouth.
After just 1 DP in the last 5 years(that too 3 years back), suddenly KATSUNI is BACK doing DPs... She did 1 in Brazzers Live 2 months back.. And now yet another for Jules Jordan next month....YaY
So has Jules not released Katsuni's DP in HD yet? I looked at his web site and it only shows in standard definition. Does Katsuni even have a DP scene released in HD yet?
Hey ppl, I've been a huge fan of Katsumi. Right from the days she started getting big in the US like around 2003-2004 and I've watched a lot of her scenes. Most of her scenes in those days were very power packed and she did a lot of rough stuff like gangbangs and DPs and I even heard DP was her favourite position. After she became a Digital Playground gal, I was kinda upset cuz all her scenes were now toned down a lot although her time at digital did wonders to her beauty. She got really hot. A year or 2 earlier, she got out of her contract. I dunno the reason why but boy was I glad when that happened. Of her new scenes post the contract cancellation, I've watched a bunch of her scenes like Asian Booty 2, the brazzers scenes, the brazzers live scene and even her recent DP in a julesjordan production I believe. But man, none of it does anything for me. Katsuni just seems to have become uptight or I dunno what you might call it. She used to go all out in her past scenes and she'd play the shy submissive asian gal so well. But now its like she keeps holding herself back. Do any of u guys out here feel the same way about her? As a long time Katsu fan, I find it disappointing. Or is it just the changes in the industry that have contributed to this?
Katsumi is an incarnation of sexual heaven...or the nearest thing I red blooded guy (or gal) can get to it. My take on it is that she has probably gave so much of herself and her gorgeous femininity..that now she should be very choosy about what she will bestow on us mere mortals in the future...can easily see her phasing out of the porn scene to pursue other interests... But hopefully, not before she leaves us with a few last sparkling gems...my dream would be for her to be the lead Goddess in a high class unapologeticaly body fascist orgy of the most subtle and intense kind that would tilt the earth on its axis!! She would give a crowning,, mesmeric performance of blending art and eroticism before ceding the baton to a new acolyte...a samsara of Katsumi. To my luminous beauty ...and. My dark paradise. ...Katsumi
