Shungo Kaji (梶俊吾 Kaji Shungo?) is a Japanese film director, screenwriter, producer and company executive who is active primarily in the adult video (AV) field.
Kaji was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1961. He says that he was interested in film from his early youth and made 8mm movies as a student. After graduating from high school, he entered the Nikkatsu Visual Arts Academy (日活芸術学院 Nikkatsu Geijutsu Gakuin?), a film school which was established in 1975 within the Nikkatsu studio. Afterwards, he joined the Nikkatsu company in a managerial role producing original films and videos. He eventually left Nikkatsu to pursue a career as an independent director. By at least late 1990, he was directing adult videos for the HRC Cher label, including The Female Teacher's Nightmare Trap 4, and, in November 1991, he also directed Riria Yoshikawa's retirement video, Making love with my husband (her retirement), for HRC.
In March 1991, Kaji formed his own adult video studio, Hot Entertainment, and, by the year 2000, he was "a veteran director of over 150 adult films and videos." In addition to adult videos, Kaji directed the Hot Pictures V-Cinema production Nippon saikyou no seiyoku sha (日本最強の性欲者?), which was released in October 1996 In July 1997, Kaji produced and Hot Entertainment released another V-Cinema title, Juvenile Crime (少年の犯罪 Shōnen no hanzai?), starring Yumi Yoshiyuki and directed by Gunji Kawasaki, with a story based on a real murder case. A further V-Cinema work was the July 1999 horror video Short Horrors (ショートホラーズ Shōto Horāzu?), which Kaji wrote and directed.
