"Kimochi" basically means "feeling". The actresses in the dirty videos you're watching are probably saying "ii kimochi" which tranlates to "(what a) good feeling".
"Kimochii" with a drawn out final i = 気持ちい (ああ 、きもちい) = alone also means "Ooh, the feeling. What a good feeling." It's just a shorter way of saying ii kimochi, with basically the same English translation.

I've never heard someone exclaim "ii kimochi!" but "kimochi ii" is quite common and probably what you're hearing. I'd imagine this is shortened from "kimochi ga ii."

You can also use it as an isolated word, kimochii? (the tone rises at the end, as it's a question) if you want to ask something if (cough) something feels good...

I've never heard anyone say, kimochii desu ka?
Yes, you can ask "kimochi-ii desu ka?"--although I can't think of any other situation where it will be used. Maybe a sales person asking you (the customer) how it feels using a product (such as trying out a massage chair)?

I've heard both, but as you indicate the latter is more commonly encountered than the former. Also, the "ii kimochi!" will most usually have the "da" tagged onto the end.

Wow, I miss those, that was my biggest excuse for going to places like D2, and we would just sit in the massage chairs for say 20 minutes, figuring out all the buttons...
Really, that's at least very unique to Japan, I haven't seen those chairs in the United States, or at least their popularity waned... and oh, so expensive!
ps. I guess I was mistaken about the elongation of the third い in kimochi ii.. and thought it was simply kimochii ... those types of things doubling of vowels are tricky for me sometimes. Thanks
Well, guys thanks to you all!!! Arigatogozaimasu!!!
But I've another question,.....
(so what a good feeling is '' ii kimochi / kimochi ga ii/ kimochi ii)
sorry if I'm a little bit dumb but learning foreign languages isn't always my best thing
so now how do we say (to your girlfriend indeed,...... )
''does it feel great??'' (meaning in a dirty way )
I'm not sure how many dialects there are, there are surely many, I'm only (aware of) Kansai, (dialect of Kyoto & Osaka), Yokohama, & Kanto--- but for the most part Yokohama has merged itself quite a bit into Kanto dialect...
What you learn in textbooks is standard Kanto dialect, and anyone anywhere in Japan (mostly, I'm guessing there are some remote-ish places where there are dialects that are difficult for mainland Japanese to understand) will be able to understand you.
Something like ii jan is yokohama dialect, jan is less like deshou, (don't you think!), and more like (i think!) ...(I think) It's good!
An example of a very common kansai ben word, is ookini (o's are never written as ou at the BEGINNING of a word), which, much like arigatou, means Thank you.
Here's a little page on some kansai-ben, that shows some common phrases and words:
...anyways, It's important to stick to the text that you are learning, as you progress through your learning and understanding of the mechanics of the language, as you actually speak with other Japanese, you'll learn colloquialisms, and it's fun to now and again pepper your speech with something like kansai-ben...
I know of a lot of Japanese from Kanto region who always asked friends from Osaka to teach them a bit of kansai-ben... people may be surprised to hear you use such phrases.
People have certainly been surprised to hear me use colloquial Japanese...
There are a lot of dialects, but Hyoujungo (pretty much Tokyo dialect) is considered standard Japanese, and no one will have any trouble understanding you. You're more likely to have trouble the other way around.
So yes, 超 chou is used as slang in the east, but no one would have any trouble understanding you. One of the things about speaking in a certain dialect is it shows where and from whom you learned Japanese.
