ANX-014 - Hypnotized flight attendant, now my slave

Hikaru Shiina is as reliably cute as ever, which is perfect. However, there seem to be way too many of these 'hypnosis' themes lately, and I just don't get the appeal. I assume it's used as a substitute for the 'aphrodisiac' trope in AV fantasy, but it lacks conviction. Plus, there's so much unnecessary filler that it's exhausting to watch. Wouldn't it be wiser to focus on direction that brings out the best in the actresses?
