SPRD-620 - Journey: Summer with my Aunt, Shinobu Oshima

I bought this because I was drawn to the mature women in swimsuits, but the encounters were monotonous and not very interesting. The background music was also distracting. I don't think I'll be watching this a second time.

The actress is even more beautiful in the video than on the cover. Most AVs are shot in the same old Tokyo buildings, which feels repetitive, but this one features a story that unfolds slowly in beautiful, unseen natural scenery. I was surprised they used a song with lyrics as the BGM; it synced perfectly with the story, foreshadowing the end of a young man's fleeting love—a tear-jerking, excellent production. It's easily on par with a high-quality V-Cinema. The only downside was the lack of creampie. Since she's a post-menopausal mature woman, there's no pregnancy risk, so I really wanted to hear: 'Ma'am, I'm about to cum. I'll pull out?' 'It's okay, I'm menopausal so don't worry about pregnancy. Just cum inside.' Even with that missing, it's a 5-star rating.

I rented this because the reviews were high, but it's just Shinobu Oshima, a totally average middle-aged lady. The story and setup were fine, but... she's just too much like a regular auntie.

I was drawn in by the high-rated reviews and decided to give it a watch, and I was completely blown away. I even felt moved by the visual beauty and the poignant story, almost like watching a piece of literature. The quality of AV varies wildly depending on the director's talent—from trashy, low-brow stuff that's forgotten in days, to high-quality works like this one. It couldn't have had a huge budget, which just goes to show that if the content and the actors are good, you can create something of this caliber. I didn't know this actress at all, but she's a true talent who shows what acting is all about. The actor isn't the most skilled, but his earnest and affectionate performance left a good impression. I've become interested in watching the rest of this series.

Shinobu Oshima is the best. Her acting is natural, the sex is hot, and she loves men (and men love women like her). Her starring works are generally high quality, but this one even has a lyrical quality to it, which is perfect for those who enjoy that style. It's a shame to just dismiss it as a mere adult film.
