TOKYO (TR) – The adult video (AV) actress is likely the only job description in which a woman just shy of her 30th birthday could be described as “mature.”

For Ayumi Shinoda, she wouldn’t have it any other way.

At the Sky PerfecTV! Adult Broadcasting Awards held last month, Shinoda, 29, topped a field of four candidates in being named Best Mature Actress.

“I’m so sorry, I have no words,” said the teary-eyed actress, representing the Cherry Bomb channel.

Held in a theater in Shibuya Ward, the somewhat tongue-in-cheek annual event uses online voting by fans to present to present a number of awards to the top female stars appearing on the more than 10,000 AV programs broadcast last year on the nearly 20 adult channels on the Sky PerfecTV! satellite network.

Other notable awards went to Mana Sakura (Best Actress) and Moe Amatsuka (Best New Actress). The Best Picture award was presented to a lesbian feature from Rainbow Channel starring Saki Hatsumi and Chika Arimura. Shimiken won the first ever Best Actor prize in the 11-year history of the event.

Shinoda, who made her AV debut in 2010, was also presented with the Yukan Fuji media prize.
