URE-020 - Audrey's Secret 2: The Uncensored Lessons of a 30-Year-Old Housewife

Azumi Senno. Her acting and looks are wonderful. In contrast, the male actors' performances are so amateurish and pathetic. Can the production team or director do something about this?

The story is about 'the limits of an affair' while avoiding the husband's gaze, kept just on the edge of chaos. I don't know the original work. These days, this kind of 'full-time housewife' is disappearing, so it lacks realism, but I think it serves as a historical record of 'the last of these types of affairs.' As an AV, even if the 'full-time housewife' archetype disappears from reality, I hope they continue to produce content with this level of care. The lead actress was great. Azumi Chino. She looks slender, but she has a surprisingly rich, hidden bust. She's an actress who can compete with her acting skills, so you aren't just distracted by her chest during the scenes. She's just in her early 20s, yet she plays a 29-year-old married woman. Personally, I have high expectations for her. I wouldn't say she's the absolute best, but since the story starts with her being 'pushed down' by a young man, she isn't a young wife who makes it her 'hobby' to keep a boy toy from the start. That's probably why the poignant scene with the man she has to break up with felt so natural. When it comes to the intimate scenes, she's greedy and energetic because of her youth. Her techniques are professional as well. She could pull off a work that focuses solely on her breasts, but there's no need to limit her appeal to just that. I wrote this because I think she's an actress who can do a wide variety of roles. I'll keep an eye on her and watch her other works later. Overall rating: 3.9 stars.

This is pretty disappointing... I watched it because Azumi Senno is in it, but the sex scenes are way too thin. I don't know the original work, so I can't comment on faithfulness, but I have no idea what they were doing with a 4-hour runtime. There are a few scenes, but most are under 20 minutes, and the worst ones end in 15—it's painfully obvious they were cut in editing. It feels like they focused too much on the drama (which apparently isn't even faithful to the source) and neglected the actual sex scenes. For the record, there are 8 scenes, but by cramming that many in, they all ended up feeling half-baked. If you're selling an adult film, you need to prioritize quality sex scenes; they forgot the basics.

As the netori enthusiast said, the ones who really need a renewal are the male actors. No offense to Azumi Chino, but I feel like Yui Hatano would have been a much better fit for the role of Audrey. The story progression also feels sluggish and lacks any real punch. It's a bit different from the original work, too. It really feels like the production team just slapped this together because they felt obligated to make a sequel.

As I wrote in my review for the previous installment (Part 1), the male actors in this series don't fit the original setting or atmosphere at all, yet only the actresses were replaced. Furthermore, the caliber of the actresses has clearly dropped. Maybe sales were lower than expected for the first one, and since fewer people buy this without watching Part 1, they couldn't afford the fees for top-tier actresses like Yui Hatano and Ruri Saijo—but even so, they didn't need to keep the entire male cast. The heroines, Chino-san and Mizuno-san, are close to the original image, but Chino-san feels inexperienced with drama acting. Also, the entire subplot about the housing complex demolition from the original work was cut, so there's no scene where the heroine is violated by the politician. A disappointing sequel, so I'm giving it 2 stars.
