![]() He compensates for it weakly with a halfway inclusionary "stay in school, girls and boys" but really he just means "girls". The writing gives no agency to the women and uses turns of phrase like "self-respecting women" and the "trappings" of the lifestyle.Īlso, by omitting male AV stars from the equation, but implying them as the puppet masters, the writer is adding to the perceived victimization of women. It paints women as passive dupes who "happen" to fall into some victimizing lifestyle. Who find themselves in the strange position of feeling more comfortable in environments like hostess bars ![]() Literally thousands of them become trapped in the sex industry afterwards. That many girls find themselves unable to shake off. The Japanese sex industry may well be one of the biggest in the world, but it’s clearly very dangerous ground to play in. ![]() While some suggested that, with such a huge existing fan-base, she would see incredible success, others - perhaps more reasonably - argued that, once the novelty of seeing a former pop star perform sexual acts had worn off, Nakanishi would be left out in the cold, disgraced and jobless. Just over two years ago, former AKB48 idol Rina Nakanishi was reported to have become an AV model after her sudden departure from the popular group. Some, on the other hand, simply can’t afford to go back to that and look for more lucrative work elsewhere.” “Some writers refuse to do it out of pride or shock. Nakamura compares this way of thinking to writers who, at the peak of their game being paid hundreds of dollars for articles, suddenly have the rug pulled out from under them and are forced to work for just $20 or $30 per piece. The “AV Mindset” that Nakamura speaks of has two distinct sides to it while there are some retired AV models who lack the skills required to work in regular jobs, and who find themselves in the strange position of feeling more comfortable in environments like hostess bars, there are also women who, despite wanting to stop making sex tapes, are unwilling to return to an everyday lifestyle and lose all the trappings and relative glamour that came from their wealthy AV lifestyle. It would seem that, of those thousands of girls initially seeking an easy, well-paid life as a porn-star, literally thousands of them become trapped in the sex industry afterwards. Around two thirds of retired AV models end up in the sex industry, working in hostess bars or even working as prostitutes in ‘soap-land’ bath houses.” “They have worked in an often lucrative business, some for many years, so to go back to a standard job for a much smaller salary is not easy. “A lot of girls find themselves unable to return to regular jobs after working as an AV model,” explains Nakamura. After all, few people actively working in the porn industry are seen out shopping with their kids or taking part in PTA meetings without those around them raising a few eyebrows.īut it is here that many retired AV models hit a wall, says Nakamura, describing what he calls the “AV-no” (literally Adult Video brain”) the “AV Mindset” that many girls find themselves unable to shake off. In many cases, girls do a short spell making XXX videos, and then, perhaps having earned enough to support themselves financially, or simply deciding that they have had enough, choose to leave and pursue a more orthodox lifestyle. ![]() “With the huge number of girls working in the industry, cases of AV actresses being recognised while going about their daily lives are quite rare,” says Nakamura, adding “there are plenty of cases of former AV girls who are now happily married and enjoying normal lives.” But surely the risk of being seen on a video would be enough to dissuade any self-respecting young woman from doing such a thing? The Japanese AV industry reportedly sees an astounding 6,000 newcomers each year. “Some do it entirely for the money, while others are just comfortable with the idea of having sex in front of people and see it as any easy job. “Many girls enter the AV industry each year, but not necessarily all for the same reasons,” Nakamura comments. In an interview with Atsuhiko Nakamura, author of books such as “The Nameless Women” and interviewer of literally hundreds of AV actresses, Shuplay News uncovered some startling facts about the sex industry in Japan, in particular the life of the women who become involved in making adult movies. And with that growth comes an increasing number of young women who aspire to work in the industry.īut with so many girls taking a shot at being AV stars and entering into this seemingly glamorous but equally shady profession, how do they go about their daily lives unnoticed? And what becomes of AV stars who leave the industry? The Japanese AV (adult video) industry, whose revenue comprised more than 20% of worldwide sales according to a 2006 survey, continues to grow every year.

![]() Using these will drain a portion of the energy meter located in your HUD, above your active weapon, but that meter will refill over time. Advanced attacks include a freeze burst, jump, temporary invisibility, temporary shield, rear mines, rear attack, and even napalm. Twisted Metal 2 introduces advanced attacks and these can be performed by pressing a specific sequence of dpad buttons. Fire, homing, and power missiles return along with new weapons like napalm that will set vehicles on fire, remote bombs, ricochet bombs that bounce around the environments, and even lightning attacks. Turbo and other standard weapons can be obtained within the environments. Vehicles caught on fire can use turbo to put out the flames making turbo a much more useful tool than just being used to drive at super speed. Every vehicle is equipped with two machineguns with infinite ammo and a limited amount of turbo. Special weapons return and are unique to each vehicle and these attacks are more powerful than the other standard weapons and will recharge over time after being depleted. Once again each vehicle has its own stats that include handling, armor, special weapon, and speed so just like the first game, vehicles with little to no armor tend to move faster and the more armored vehicles won’t be as quick. By default, there’s twelve vehicles to choose from but this can be increased to fourteen if you unlock the other two, Sweet Tooth and Minion. Plenty of new vehicles are introduced including the series iconic Axel, a man trapped between two massive wheels. Many of the returning vehicles don’t actually include their drivers from the first game. Minion is my favorite vehicle of the bunch just for the fact he’s a demon with a badass tank and special weapon. Minion also returns as a mid-boss and also as a playable vehicle. Sweet Tooth also returns but the developers decided to make him a hidden driver unlocked only by using a cheat. Several vehicles return from the first game like Thumper, Roadkill, Mr. All of the stories are still kind of campy and crazy but it all adds to the charm of the game. Not every driver ends up living happily ever after and seeing how Calypso twists a driver’s words around can be comical. With full voice acting and cut scenes now, the stories are definitely more appealing and interesting this time around. Each driver has their own reason for participating and only after winning the contest will you see what the driver truly wants. Rather than using images of live actors and rolling text to advance what little story there is like the first game, cut scenes are presented in a comic book style with full voice acting. In contrast to his freaky appearance in the original Twisted Metal, Calypso now has sleek long hair, his face isn’t burnt to a crisp, although he still retains some facial burns, and he has a more charming personality. A mysterious man named Calypso runs a contest called Twisted Metal where drivers from all over come and battle to the death for a grand prize of anything they wish. The premise in Twisted Metal 2 is pretty much identical to that of the first game. Plus, it came in a huge box with that awesome artwork of Sweet Tooth’s head. ![]() I’d still rather play the PlayStation version but just knowing the fact I own a copy of the PC release puts a smile on my face. As a game collector, I searched high and low for a good three years before I finally obtained a copy, complete in box, and it’s now one of my prized possessions. It’s also the rarest game I own right now. ![]() The PC release was marketed so horribly that many people didn’t even know it existed and it’s extremely hard to find now. In 1997 a PC version was released and it’s just downright inferior to the PlayStation version. Nowadays, Twisted Metal 2 is considered a classic and it’s also where the Twisted Metal series really began to take shape. Developed by SingleTrac and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, Twisted Metal 2 was released for the Sony PlayStation in 1996 to critical acclaim and some even call it the greatest car combat game ever made. Taking the basic structure from the first game, Twisted Metal 2 introduces some brand new elements along with doing everything else a good sequel does, adding more content. It was this game that introduced me to the Twisted Metal series and a few years later I got Twisted Metal 2, the game that many would say is the best in the series. I could only play what I already owned. Super Mario World, Spyro, Sonic Adventure, and Crash Bandicoot Warped are just some of them but it wasn’t until I obtained a copy of Twisted Metal III that I could say I had a favorite action series. Playing games from my childhood is always fun. Many games I wanted back in the day I wasn’t able to obtain and that’s one reason why I would play specific games religiously as a kid. ![]() ![]() However, the computer won’t be able to transfer music. Since the old-school portable CD players are outdated, you might like to store or play your album from a smartphone or other device. If you purchase an album as an audio CD, you’ll be able to play it from your computer, but copying it to a storage drive won’t be easy.

North Andover - Beth Barwick, 72, of North Andover, MA, passed away on October 30, 2023. The K24’s design was remarkably similar to its predecessor, the 2-liter K20. Production continues to the present day with the K24Y and K24Z variants, but they’re probably not what you’re looking for, as we’ll explain later. Honda’s K24 series has birthed several of the immensely popular K-series engines over the years, and there have been more updates and variations than most enthusiasts realize.Īfter its initial launch in 2001, the 2.4-liter powerplant debuted in the Honda CR-V with the original K24A1 variation. Make sure you keep your eyes peeled later on in this guide, as we’ll unveil some of the unlikely K24 swaps that we’ve come across. So, whether you’re looking for a cheap and reliable daily driver swap, or a fully boosted race setup that’ll be able to help you smash ¼ mile records, the K24 certainly needs to be a contender to consider. With an ever-increasing off-the-shelf aftermarket mounting and wiring options available for the K-series, it’s undoubtedly emerging as an underdog in the engine-swap world. So, if you’re looking for extremely high power potential, a K-series swap could well begin to make a lot of sense.Īs the popularity of LS swaps increases, the K-series could emerge as the superior purchase over time, with so many drifters opting for the typical V8 route. They’re also impressive when it comes to off-the-shelf upgrades and aftermarket support. There’s a wide range of K24 engines located under the hoods of some of the most popular cars on the market, such as Honda Accord’s and CR-V’s, and this makes them extremely convenient and cheap to source. We’re not the only one that thinks this, either, and for that reason, Speed Academy have put them head-to-head in this video: It also, of course, falls to their impressive reliability, power potential, and ability to handle forced induction efficiently.īut, what if we told you that the Honda K24 also ticks all of these boxes? V8 swaps have become increasingly common throughout motorsport, mostly thanks to their (mainly) reasonable price tags alongside convenience and ease of sourcing when it comes to parts and engines. However, you may well be surprised to hear that it’s not actually that challenging to swap the K24 into just about any chassis, even when it comes to some of the rarer mid-engined cars. We’d forgive you for purely thinking along the lines of cheap, FWD cars when it comes to the K-series. ![]() Part of the beauty of Honda’s K-series is the convenience when it comes to swapping it into some of the least likely chassis imaginable. *WARNING* The K20 guide contains RX7 FD’s with Honda powerplants! Too late? Whoops. While you’re huffing and puffing about FWD rice-boxes, we highly recommend that you head over to our previous guide for the K24’s younger brother, the Honda K20. (Just kidding!)įor those of you that are wondering why we’ve decided to check out the Honda K24 engine, it’s because Honda’s legendary K-series engines are immensely underrated. There’s nothing more challenging to deal with than an angry Honda fanboy. ![]() Since the Honda fanboys came out in force and criticized the lack of Honda-related content at Drifted, we’ve opted for creating some in-depth guides to keep them happy.
