Why Did Aoi Sora’s Words “I Like China” Spark Another Wave of Public Debate?

# Why Did Aoi Sora’s Words “I Like China” Spark Another Wave of Public Debate?

Recently, a statement made by former well-known Japanese AV actress Aoi Sora has triggered widespread discussion across social media platforms in both China and Japan.

On January 25, according to Japan’s Sports Nippon, the 44-year-old Aoi Sora updated her account on X (formerly Twitter), sharing her personal feelings toward China. She said that she has many friends in China, and therefore feels sad when political tensions arise, as it makes it more difficult for her to visit China or for her friends to come to Japan.

At the end of her post, she wrote plainly:

> “I like China.”

This simple sentence was quickly pushed into the center of public controversy.

## How It Started: A Single Sentence That Sparked Controversy

In today’s sensitive public opinion climate, such a statement was bound to be controversial. Soon after, some Japanese netizens began attacking Aoi Sora in the comments, even using openly insulting language.

In response to the hostility, Aoi Sora remained remarkably calm. She replied with a question:

> “Do you think I’m China’s dog? I think that sounds pretty cute. Woof woof.”

This high-EQ response was widely shared and quickly gained strong support on Chinese social media platforms.

However, focusing solely on this controversy risks overlooking a key background fact — Aoi Sora’s connection with China is not a momentary emotional stance, but a long-standing and very real relationship.

## Aoi Sora and China: Not a Temporary “Statement”

As one of the most iconic actresses of Japan’s adult video era, [Aoi Sora](/actress/detail/8823/) enjoys enormous recognition across Asia, especially in the Chinese market.

As early as August 2025, she appeared on the Japanese variety show *Shikujiri Sensei: Ore Mitai ni Naru na!!*, where she openly discussed her experiences in China. She did not avoid the topic, candidly stating that her popularity in China was closely tied to her past career.

She revealed that at the time of filming, her Weibo account had approximately 20 million followers.

Several details mentioned in the program continue to be frequently referenced. One event, originally planned for around 500 attendees, ended up drawing several thousand fans, forcing the event to shut down just three minutes after it began.

Additionally, a Chinese band once released a song named after her, and her calligraphy works were sold at auction for around 10 million yen. Even within Japan’s entertainment industry, such phenomena are highly unusual.

## “Sky-High Appearance Fees” and Public Backlash

During the show, the host also brought up a long-rumored topic — that Aoi Sora once received as much as 10 million RMB for a single appearance in China. She did not deny this, acknowledging that such figures were indeed discussed at the time, equivalent to about 150 million yen based on the exchange rate then.

As these past stories resurfaced, discussions among Japanese netizens gradually shifted in tone.

Some questioned why she was so popular in China; others doubted whether the “friends” she mentioned truly existed; some argued that she was simply “making a lot of money” in the Chinese market; and some escalated the issue to one of political stance.

Though contradictory, these viewpoints together form a realistic cross-section of public opinion surrounding the incident.

## What She Really Meant Was Not About Politics

When Aoi Sora’s remarks are placed back into their broader context, it becomes clear that she was not attempting to comment on grand geopolitical issues or to express a political position.

What she repeatedly emphasized were very concrete and personal concerns — whether friends could still meet, whether exchanges would be disrupted, and how ordinary relationships are directly affected when political tensions rise.

This approach may not satisfy everyone, but it explains why her words provoked both support and resentment.

## In Times of Confrontation, It Is Ordinary Lives That Are Affected

Looking back at the entire incident, the core of the debate is not whether her words were right or wrong, nor whether her stance was “ambiguous.”

What was repeatedly brought to the surface is a far more realistic issue: when political relations deteriorate, it is often ordinary people’s daily lives that are affected first — whether friends can meet, whether travel is restricted, and whether misunderstandings and emotions continue to escalate.

Aoi Sora’s comments did not offer answers or resolve these contradictions. They simply placed a long-existing but often overlooked reality back on the table.
