Following in Yua Mikami’s Footsteps
Competition in Japan’s adult film industry is fierce, with thousands of newcomers joining every year and just as many retiring. Even Yua Mikami, once hailed as the “queen” of the scene, faced early retirement as new challenges emerged in her career. Recently, another name has appeared on a similar path: Mika Horiuchi.

Unlike Yua Mikami, Mika Horiuchi Retires to Get Married
For those who don’t know, Mika Horiuchi’s background is pretty unusual. She was originally a nurse. But in 2020, Mika made a surprising announcement: if her social media followers hit 10,000, she would join the adult industry and become Yua Mikami’s colleague. A few months later, she kept her promise and has been active ever since. However, she recently shocked her fans with an unexpected move.

Specifically, Mika suddenly announced her retirement and shared wedding photos shortly after, signaling a new chapter in her life. She explained that new laws and regulations pushed her to this decision. Recently, her income dropped significantly to about 90,000 yen over three months (around 15 million VND), which is quite alarming. Mika admitted she’s lost a lot since entering the industry but also gained valuable experiences.

Still, she doesn’t regret choosing marriage and leaving the industry. Mika hopes her fans will continue to support her in this new journey.
