Titose HaraShiori goes on a hot spring trip with her senior, Nanako. They run into Furuya, Nanako's old crush, at the inn. While Nanako tries to rekindle the flame, Furuya falls for Shiori at first sight. Things are about to get messy.
She was a real beauty for her time and quite sultry, which I liked. The plot, however, was a bit questionable.
It’s rare for this series to include outdoor scenes, so I really appreciated that. You can tell a lot of care went into the production, which was great.
Aside from the cliché AV plot of a forced affair, this is a very well-made film. The staff clearly knows what they're doing. The evening sunlight in the bedroom and the perfectly balanced lighting in the final ryokan scene create a real sense of illicit tension. Even the dinner table scenes, which are irrelevant to the plot, are set up with care. The transition of her falling for the affair partner is expressed beautifully through editing. It feels more like a drama than just an AV. The premise that she's not in a bad marriage but still falls into an affair adds depth. Hara Chitose has a beautiful, slender figure and a lovely face. Her V-line grooming was a nice touch. Her eyes-closed fellatio felt almost like a prayer, which made it even more erotic. The mountain path scene reminded me of a roadside deity. The fine mosaic was also a plus.
Her features are elegant, so she fits the tone of the work well, but I personally wanted a bit more intensity in the play.
I'm not a fan of the near-rape vibe from the male actor at the start, but the overall flow is natural, making the 'I'll allow it' moment feel genuine. Hara Chitose is great, and the 'No, call me by my name...?' part was the best. If I had to be greedy, since they're using names, I would've loved to see more slow, intimate interaction with verbal expressions of affection, but maybe that's asking for too much.
