JAV databases and release calendars
None of these sites hosts or sells video. They are reference tools built mostly on store data, and purchases happen at the stores they link to. AV Joyu DB pairs performer profiles and filmographies with a daily release calendar, DebutDB indexes performers by their debut release, and JAV ACTRESS SEARCH adds a short English cheat sheet for its search terms. EVELT covers something different, in-person events in Japan such as signings and disc release events. Abroad, their worth lies in identifying a title, since product code, maker and release date carry over to any store. All are written in Japanese and free to read, so what separates them is what each one indexes, how it ranks, and whether it says who runs it and how it is funded.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I actually buy the videos I find on these sites?
None of these databases host or sell video content directly. They act as reference tools that provide links to external stores like FANZA for all purchases.
I want to find out when a specific performer's new video is coming out. Which site should I use?
You should look at AV Joyu DB or Kairaku Pro AV Kentei because they both feature daily release calendars. These tools help you track new releases on a day-to-day basis.
Can I find information about in-person appearances like signings or photo sessions?
Yes, EVELT is the specific listing for that purpose. It allows you to search for performer events by date, region, and event type.
Is there a way to find performers based on when they started their careers?
DebutDB is designed for this, as it indexes performers specifically by their debut release. You can also browse through that site using maker, genre, or year.
Are any of these databases helpful if I don't speak Japanese well?
JAV ACTRESS SEARCH is your best option because it includes a small English search cheat sheet. Most of the other listings are strictly Japanese-language tools.
