A Japanese adult video (AV) was filmed in the so-called worst location possible.
Last March, news hit Japan that an AV film was shot at Sanshinomori Park in Tokyo. Though filming outdoors is not out of the ordinary in this industry, the problem arose when people found out that this park was connected to a nearby primary school.
It is a location where young children walk by every day to get to school, increasing the chances that some of them may have unwittingly seen the sexual displays.

To make matters worse, the primary school’s entrance was even seen in a clip of the adult video.

Residents quickly made their anger known, going to public officials to raise their concerns. One resident was noted to have shouted, “Such behavior is extremely inappropriate!”
The park management committee quickly investigated the matter and found that the AV studio, Soft On Demand (aka SOD), did not obtain permission to film in Sanshinomori Park. They emphasized the importance of submitting scripts to them prior to filming for approval and that “inappropriate, violent, or overly intimate content is prohibited in the park.”
Soft On Demand issued a public apology and took down the offending video.
