ATID-193 - Bullet of Revenge: A Detective's Brutal Retribution

*I guess they're looking for a story, but I feel like the gameplay could have been simpler. It's a shame because the actors are beautiful.

When there are multiple actresses, I'm often disappointed because my favorite gets little screen time or the co-stars are lackluster. But in this one, Megumi gets properly(?) nailed three times, and the other two are decent, so I'm satisfied. The story is a mess and the footage is too dark, which is a minus, though.

This work really highlights Aizumi Reika's great figure. Her upright posture, beautiful legs in a tight navy suit, and her calm, cool-headed handling of the case—she's much more attractive here than in 'Until She Falls.' I was excited thinking about how thrilling it would be to break and corrupt such a cool female investigator. Yet, most of the erotic scenes are just the victim (Haruka) being violated, trained, and forced into sexual service. The investigator's violation doesn't happen until well into the second half. First, her junior Sorano gets caught and violated, and finally, it's Aizumi's turn. She complies because her junior is a hostage, but it's just a cliché kidnapping/violation scene. There's no 'teasing to orgasm' or SM training, and it ends abruptly with a tacked-on conclusion. I was completely let down. Why didn't they go with a plot where she drowns in pleasure and becomes a sex slave? It's such a shame.

The drama is split into two main parts: the victim being held captive and trained, and the 'slave district' style scene where two investigators are captured and abused. The former feels very much like a slave district setting. Megumi Haru plays both the victim and her sister, but the jump from present to past is abrupt and the editing is a bit sloppy. There are many assault scenes, but they aren't all full-on; they are more like dramatic digests. If you can't stand that, you should avoid this type of drama. Among the three actresses, Reika Azumi and Megumi Haru act so well that it makes the newcomer, Yume Sorano, look relatively unskilled, which is a shame. The abuse scenes meet the quality expected from Shinichi Kawamura, but for this price, I wish it had been over two hours long.

There's a limit to how disappointing this can be! You can't expect anything close to what the magazine articles or packaging suggest. It's fatal that the main footage relies heavily on sample-like editing, skipping or omitting the most important parts. Recently, Attackers promotes their work as having elaborate concepts and scenarios, but the direction feels increasingly shallow. This was the ultimate example of that.
