Mariko Morikawa (森川まりこ Morikawa Mariko) is a Japanese AV idol.

Life and career

Mariko Morikawa first appeared in magazine layouts and videos in the early 1990s. She became one of Tokyo Topless' leading models, appearing in eight layouts there, beginning with #1 and concluding with #7. She also served as the hostess of their Internet radio program.

Her debut AV was the July 1994 Athena Eizou release, Tits Way Too Huge (巨大すぎるデカパイ Kyodai Sugiru Dekapai).[2] Morikawa also starred in a theatrical film, Big Tit Monastery, a big-bust variation on the nunsploitation genre, which was released January 5, 1995 through Nikkatsu's post-Roman Porno Excess label,[3]

Morikawa's fame reached the United States where she was featured on the front and back covers of the Summer 1999 issue of Oriental Cinema. Reviewing her Cho Nyu Densetsu Q Kono Chichi O Kurae - Morikawa Mariko, author and critic Damon Foster calls the video "just typical pornographic nonsense, with nudity galore..." About the lead actress, Foster says, "Mariko Morikawa may be considered too 'pudgy' for most men's taste, but I think she's an intense beauty."[4]
