SHPDV-028 - Divorced and Desperate: The Secret Garden of Lust

This is the first installment of the lesbian erotic series directed by Futoshi Sakamoto! It's strange that it never became a full series. With talented actresses like Chisato Shoda and Riri Koda, the narrative flow is solid. However, the lead-up to the lesbian scenes—where Yui invites a newly divorced Chisato to a 'secret garden for women who only love women'—felt a bit lacking in terms of the actual seduction and emotional buildup.

This film aims to prioritize story and a lewd atmosphere. However, the lighting is way too bright for the hushed, mumbling dialogue; I wish they had put more effort into the environmental direction. Koda Riri radiates a unique charm, but the film leaves you with a strange feeling—even with the use of toys, the actual play feels like a softcore lesbian flick (lol). It feels like it could have been a masterpiece if they had just pushed it a little further... but it's just average.

Perhaps because the lead is the idol-turned-MILF Chisato Shoda, the content was far too tame for a lesbian film featuring Yui. Given that Yui is perfect for playing a nymphomaniac, I was expecting the kind of intense, steamy chemistry that no other actress could pull off, but it just ended up being a generic lesbian flick. Whether it was director Futoshi Sakamoto misusing her or just the role itself, it really didn't suit her at all. I wanted something hardcore—where Yui uses her intense lesbian techniques to dominate Chisato Shoda until she's screaming and climaxing over and over. She's an actress who fits that kind of lewdness so well... it was a huge disappointment.

The story was good, and the four actresses delivered a mature, sticky chemistry that was excellent. The whispered dialogue was also a testament to the director's skill. Yui, having been trained in FA productions, was exceptional in her writhing and climax. Koda also led the scenes well like the veteran she is. Shoda was good too, but I found her tattoos off-putting. Also, do they really need toys to finish...?

しっかりとしたストーリーのある作品であり、途中にセリフ演技のコーナーが挟まってうまく２人の結びつきを高めている。 千里さんは年齢の割にちょっと体がくたびれた感じだが、これはある程度仕方ない事であるから大目に見たいと思う。 ややこしいのが本編でゆいと名乗っているのは結衣美沙で、何故か倖田李梨のパートナー役の細井真理子がみさという名前である事。 せっかく４人出演しているので、全員での本格的なカラミがなかったのもちょっと勿体無いようにも感じた。 腰の動きをはじめとする、三十路の女性のいやらしさは随所に醸し出されているので、この辺の好きな方は満足できると思います。
