It’s not bullying, it’s a whole new world of 'hazing'! Strict hierarchies and sadistic seniors push fresh recruits to their limits with humiliating drills, from naked squats to degrading volleyball practice in a closed-off camp.




















I was satisfied enough with Kasugano Yui, but I'm docking a star because there were too few scenes with my other favorite, Rei Misaki.
The director's abnormal and unappealing obsession forces us to watch endless scenes with zero movement. It's an unpleasant work; don't buy it. Why did it turn out like this? How was such a piece of work even made? An actress who looks exactly like a young Mami Kumagai appears and gives a truly convincing performance; she is undeniably beautiful. Her acting is so realistic, it feels like a documentary rather than an AV—clearly the work of a veteran stage actress. If you're watching this expecting a typical AV, you'll be confused as to what's going on. But it just becomes uncomfortable to watch. Give it a rest, director and producers; I came to see nudity, not forced facial expressions. I watched it to the end out of spite, but it's clear the producers have lost their minds. Whether it's true or what the deal is, watch it yourself, feel the disgust, and find out. It's a national embarrassment.
I enjoyed watching this while reminiscing about a cute girl from my class who was on the girls' volleyball team back in school. As a fan of Yui Kasugano, there was plenty to enjoy. I replayed the butt-receive scene. However, there were many parts I could have done without, especially in the second half. Basically, I liked the plot where the cute underclassmen get bullied. Also, I personally would have loved it if there was a scene where some middle-aged men barged in.
It's a pretty dark and nasty form of bullying. Still, the department head's screams during the first half are incredibly convincing. The revenge plot in the second half is unrealistic, but I enjoyed it thanks to the department head's performance of humiliation.
It's set in a prestigious powerhouse girls' volleyball team, but the fact that there are only three 3rd-years and three 1st-years is the first thing that makes you go 'wait, what?' Items for hazing that make you wonder, 'Why on earth does a high school volleyball team have these?' keep appearing one after another. It's thoughtful that all the actresses' names are listed on the front of the package. On the other hand, the back of the package is a story digest that completely spoils the plot—perhaps the production team didn't care (or thought it would actually boost sales). It's natural that the lead, Aoi Shirasaki (later Kotone Suzumiya), stands out among the 1st-years, but only one 3rd-year gets significant screen time, while the other two are barely used. The sudden insertion of a sex scene between the male advisor and the female coach in a separate room, which has almost nothing to do with the grade-vs-grade plot, makes me suspect it was just a mandatory inclusion to satisfy the 'AV requirement' of having a sex scene. It's a nice touch that all the members wear standard school-issue navy bloomers instead of cosplay outfits, but if they're a volleyball team, they should really tuck their shirts in.
