review of Japan Boyz, 2010-02-09

Our last visit to Japan Boyz was over 2 years ago when it was a new site. Now it's been around for a while, and the tour shows some very cute asian guys, mostly smooth golden-skinned twinks, as they fuck and suck other guys or jack off. The tour promises us new videos in "DVD quality mpeg, wmv and IPod formats". It also says that members get access to 2 more asian guy sites plus an anime site. If you love japanese guys from 18 to 24, join us for an up-close look at Japan Boyz!

The Japan Boyz member home page starts off with navigation links running across the top of the page. This is followed by a list of the network's latest updates - 15 of them in the last 13 days, 2 are Japan Boyz updates. Each update is either a pic set or videos. Below that on the left are the latest Japan Boyz videos and pic sets, shown by thumb but with no dates. On the right are links to the network bonus sites. Keep scrolling down to see member favorite pic sets plus links to pay per view and a video store.

When I went to check out the videos, I was surprised to see that there were only 48 of them. In fact, I went back and re-counted twice just to be sure. Each video is listed with a thumb and the title of the scene. Each vid has its own page that includes a description, the duration of the video, links to the videos, a place to rate it, a few non-clickable thumbs and member comments.

The Japan Boyz videos are offered in 3 formats - downloadable MPG, downloadable MP4 and streaming WMV. While the MPGs aren't DVD quality, they're certainly the best quality options on the site. The newest MPGs are shown at 768x480 and they look good, losing only a little quality when you watch them full-screen.

The older MPGs are similar in size, but the ones I watched were lower in quality. And for those with iPods or who prefer to watch movies on their Quicktime player, there are downloadable MP4s shown at 320x240 with a bitrate of around 500k that look fairly good. One thing to be aware of is that at the time of this review download speeds are on the slow side.

For those who prefer streaming videos, Japan Boyz offers streaming WMVs that play in an embedded player. These are shown at 320x240. The bitrates range from a little under 300k to 700k, and vids range from amateur to good amateur quality.

Japan Boyz also offers members 63 photo sets. Some of the sets are digital stills, which are pics taken with a digital camera, and some are vidcaps, which are pics pulled directly from the video. The digital stills are shown at 650x867, and quality varies from amateur to good amateur quality. As is often the case, the vidcaps are lower in quality, shown at around 650x540 at mosty below amateur quality. Although some of the vidcaps are clearly listed as screencaps, others are not. All pic sets are offered as thumbnailed galleries or as hands-free slideshows.

In addition to the Japan Boyz pics and videos, members also get access to 3 more exclusive asian guy bonus sites and a gay anime site. These are part of the same network as Japan Boyz. Members also get access to a forum, which mostly seems to be used for support, a collection of 22 feeds (one of which is asian-themed), and a personals site that is for japanese guys and their admirers.

Japan Boyz has some very cute japanese twinks in both solo and hardcore shoots. The videos are downloadable, and there's even a version of each vid for your iPod. It appears that 1 pic set and 1 video have been added to the site in the last 2 weeks, but members get access to more exclusive asian bonus sites in the same network plus more bonus content. With 48 videos and 63 pic sets, the site is smaller than you'd expect in a site that's over 2 years old, but if you love watching japanese boys with hard cocks, you should definitely check out Japan Boyz!
