The interaction between the actresses wasn't over the top, which was nice. Personally, I found it to be a good work.
The story was good and the camera angles were excellent, as expected from this studio. However, Anri Nonaka's high school girl acting was incredibly stiff. She was like a dead fish with no reaction, and her body was flabby—she really should be in better shape for an AV actress. The other two weren't particularly pretty either. It's a shame, given that K&U has so many talented actresses.
The story setup isn't bad, but there's absolutely no excitement in any of the sex scenes. The casting is also way off; it's a huge stretch to have them playing high school girls. To make matters worse, the makeup doesn't fit the setting at all. I've been a fan of 'Senpai and Me' since the VHS days, but U&K's stagnation and aimlessness over the last few years are severe. I used to think that a U&K lesbian film was a guaranteed success, but now it's the opposite—it's hard to find a good one. Even when I watch with a glimmer of hope, I'm always disappointed. I think things started going downhill when they began using 'black gal' aesthetics. Instead of forcing hard-hitting direction, why not stick to the classics? The actresses in this film are capable of making great work if they weren't used this way. It's a pity for them. I hope the studio realizes that many long-time U&K fans feel the same way.
It's not bad, but there's no real highlight throughout the entire film. It just drags on and ends just as sluggishly. I got bored halfway through. Also, the actress playing the friend who gets her man stolen by her mother is a stretch as a high school student. She looks like an office worker or a neighbor. I wish they'd stop with the lazy idea that just putting anyone in a school uniform is enough. Lately, this company's works feel like they're missing that special spark. Considering they created the legendary 'Senpai and Me' series, it's quite disappointing.
