This paper analyzes user interaction patterns and perceived immersion in recent virtual reality adult videos featuring performer Momota Emiri. Using publicly available platform data (e.g., comments, ratings, viewing duration) and a small-scale survey of 50 viewers, we identify key factors that enhance presence: eye contact, POV framing, and audio spatialization. Findings suggest that VR reduces the “uncanny valley” effect compared to 2D adult content, increasing emotional parasocial response. We conclude with design recommendations for producers and note ethical considerations regarding performer consent and platform analytics.
