Just before the wedding, my wife Nozomi insisted on going to an esthetic salon. She found a place offering free trial sessions, and despite my gut feeling that 'nothing is truly free,' she wouldn't listen. Seeing her get more beautiful each day put me at ease, until one night, I came home to find her missing...










The premise is completely unrealistic, almost cartoonish. Plus, the actress's voice is so annoying, and the fact that she can speak so clearly while having sex shows some real acting skills, I guess. The 'wife' character is way too easy to get into bed! And that final kiss scene—the husband shouldn't have just stood there watching; he should've jumped in and caused a scene. AV dramas always end so half-heartedly. It leaves you feeling frustrated and unsatisfied.
*Until now, Nozomi's elegant beauty and sensitivity were the ones that stood out first. In this work, which was supposed to charm you with sensuality, the voluptuous feeling ended up being more prominent. The way the proceedings were conducted may have made it seem that way.
Slender actresses suit oil massages much better. I think someone who isn't busty is actually more fitting for this role. Her somewhat modest look, the long frame that allows her to twist her body, and her long legs—Nozomi Higashi was perfect for the role of being teased at the spa. However, the setting and casting made them look like a bored married couple. It was good up until the third session where she gets off right next to her boyfriend(?) while he's listening to the explanation, but the rest of the story was just too generic, which was a shame. It would have been better if, after finishing, she went into the treatment room, took the lead in the massage, climaxed repeatedly, and returned to her boyfriend with that post-orgasm flushed face. The scenes after that were unnecessary. I really hope they make a sequel. I think an actress who isn't a huge name, like Mikiko Yada, would bring out the right flavor.
*I liked the way Nozomi Higashi looks like she's about to fall, but she's putting on the brakes a little, and the change in her expression when she's fallen for the practitioner and becomes cool. Well, it seems like she's going to get married to her boyfriend soon, but it's no good if she gets caught up in the therapist's tricks.
Nozomi Azuma—I hadn't really noticed her before, but she's genuinely good. She's a perfect fit for this concept. She responds beautifully to the male actor's performance as the therapist.
