2025 is a wrap, and honestly it went by super fast. Hope you all had a good start into the new year.
It’s been a big year for JAV overall, with more and more people getting into it, both viewers and creators. And it doesn’t look like that momentum is slowing down anytime soon. Excited to see how things develop.It's been big for this Patreon as well: we went from around 240 to almost 800 members this year, and nearly doubled the active supporter count over the past year. Genuinely grateful for all the amazing support.
This year also changed how I feel about my work itself. I’ve experimented and learned a lot, got more confident with what I do here, and finally reached a point where I think quality and consistency feel solid.
Going into 2026, the goal still stays the same, with one addition: keep raising the bar for scripts and subtitles, and keep strengthening our community along the way. There are a few refinements ahead, all aimed at making things smoother, closer and better in the long run.
Thanks for being here, and for sticking around.
More Sakura coming your way soon.
Sailing this ship into 2026.
