Hikaru Koto / Hikaru Coto (古都 ひかる, Koto Hikaru^?) is a former Japanese AV idol and model.

[edit] Life and career

Koto made her adult video (AV) debut at age eighteen in the September 2003 release, Virgin Princess - natural (処女宮 -natural-^?) on the h.m.p./Platinum Tiffany label.^[2] At the beginning of 2009, Amazon.co.jp listed 67 DVDs of her performances, as well as 6 books and 9 videos.

Because of her youth, Koto was often presented in cosplay roles as a high-school girl. This can be seen in the May 2004 release Ero Comic.^[3] In her June 2004 video, Indecent Attraction, the plot has her being hypnotized to become a nymphomaniac (the box title proclaims "She became a beast"). One of her male companions is famous AV actor Chocoball Mukai.^[4]

In February 2005 Koto was given the Best Actress Grand Prize at the 2005 Adult Broadcasting Awards for her work on the Rainbow Channel in the 2004 broadcasting season.^[5] She spent her entire AV career working for h.m.p. and released her last original video with them in July 2004. A 4 volume DVD compilation of her complete works was released by h.m.p. in July and August 2005.^[6]

Hikaru Koto, since retiring from the adult industry, has become a YouTube personality known as 'Cotorich' and is famous for her frequent use of "Ohayō. Konnichiwa. Konbanwa". ^[7]
