DASD-701 - Private Ballet Lesson: Kareen's Secret Training

The cover has a ballet theme, but the actual content has almost nothing to do with ballet. She ends up taking off the gym clothes and white tights at the end, which made it boring for me.

For ballet AVs, rather than contortionist sex, I want to see a story that captures the aspects of ballet as an expensive art form that requires more money as you improve, the training that hints at a certain masochism, and the competitive world where only a few succeed, all while visually expressing the fetishistic eroticism of ballet costumes. This work is commendable for its focus on training for selection interviews—including 'under-the-table' grappling practice—and the fact that they use proper ballet leotards for the clothed sex. The actress's slender frame feels realistic for a ballet girl, but given the setting and plot, I wish there was more acting that conveyed a sense of desperation or the psychological struggle of enduring lewd acts for the sake of passing the audition. The grappling training in the drama just looks like training for an AV actress. It does make you look forward to a sequel, wondering what kind of backroom deals will happen at the selection interview or how the mother will get involved.

If you ask whether an AV actress needs acting skills, I'd say yes. This drama-style work features a power-tripping blonde coach and a character who just does whatever her mom says. Actually, it feels like she can only act like she's doing what she's told. The ballet costume is cute, and when she climaxes during sex, it doesn't look like acting—it looks completely real. The question posed in the film, 'Can she make it as a ballet dancer in France?' also sounds like a question about whether she's truly serious about a career in the AV industry.

Karen Junshin. In other works, she looked pathologically thin, but in this one, she was within an acceptable range and her face looked quite cute. It's unavoidable that her head looks a bit large compared to her slender frame. It's a shame that the blonde actor at the end stood out in a bad way.
