NTRD-003 - NTR: Wife's Ex-Boyfriend Haruna Saeki

I've been watching her since she was Kana Hirayama, and she's still a very sexy woman as Haruna Saeki. The story starts with a husband suspecting his wife of cheating, but the moment he sees the hidden camera footage, he gets aroused instead of angry—what a hopeless cuckold. It makes no sense that he only confronts the lover, accepts his apology, and forgives him. Then he goes as far as wanting to watch his wife being taken—he's entered the realm of 'netorase' fetishism. Maybe such husbands exist in the minority, but who would want to use their own bedroom and every corner of their house for their wife and a lover to conceive a child? As long as husbands like this exist, the rate of infidelity among married Japanese women will remain high. Unless he confronts his wife and imposes real consequences, the number of 'cuckoo' wives will just keep growing.

This work used the 'ex-boyfriend' trope, which is the most classic setup for an affair, but the content didn't really differ from past works. If she's going to get caught and then conspire with the affair partner, I wish they had put more effort into the plot. It felt like it wouldn't have made a difference whether she got caught or not. The actress's performance was good, though. She didn't seem very virtuous, and she captured the vibe of someone looking forward to an affair well. The table masturbation scene was nice, so I wish there had been more scenes of her being teased.

Haruna Saeki playing a married woman is a sure bet. I've seen a few of her works in the Nagae Style series, and she's great at acting out the betrayal of her husband. There are three sex scenes in this, but it felt like everything peaked in the first one; after that, despite the change in location and lighting, it was just 'meh.' The fixed camera angle is likely meant to represent the husband's perspective, but it needs a bit more flair. The ending is a cuckold scenario, but I wish the husband would just stick to being the one getting cuckolded.

I think the strength of this series lies in the process leading up to the cheating and the careful depiction of the wife afterward, but this has devolved into a mere hidden-camera video of an affair. Letting an ex-boyfriend into the house and having sex immediately leaves no room for tension. As expected, the subsequent sexual depictions are just repetitive bed scenes; there's no scene of the wife trying to hide the affair from her husband, nor any change in the couple's bedroom dynamic. It's a shame, especially since Saeki Haruna is actually a decent actress.

*This actress's sex appeal, acting, lines... I think it's NTR's best masterpiece. ``I'll be in trouble if I can do it'' ``Did you put it on properly?'' My brain heated up with the sexy lines... It's the best! The two latest works lack sexy dialogue, which is disappointing.
