Pan Takes - February 2024 Vol 2
I'm a huge fan of femdom-themed releases and one starring Nina Nishimura is something I couldn't pass up. There's really no plot to speak of here as it's really just a straightforward femdom style film comprised of several scenes tasking Nina with taking the lead and dominating the action. That sounds like a good place to start. The video is comprised of two sex scenes and two handjob scenes with a behind-the-scenes look at the end, as in tradition with this studio. I do think the film makes great use of its femdom theme with some of the usual flair like male squirting, ruined orgasms(such as when she brings the guy to ejaculation and then stops right afterward), and facesitting. There is some anal toy use in a few scenes that do drag on for way too long, unfortunately. But the rest of the action is pretty solid and will definitely appeal to any femdom lovers out there.
Now one critical component of any femdom film is the actress's performance and Nina handles herself quite well overall. She's engaging, lively, and reasonably expressive. There are a lot of nice moments here like when she slaps the guy's dick and smothers him with her tits. The only thing that sometimes bothers me is that her high-pitched voice and baby face kinda clashes with the femdom vibe. Not a big deal but worth pointing out. Lastly, we have the production values which are pretty standard fare for Celeb no Tomo. Everything from the setting variety to the lighting and camerawork are all fine but nothing too special. Her wardrobe is nice at least with several great outfits. All in all, CEMD-475 is an enjoyable femdom film that any seasoned Nina fan should check out. It's fun seeing her in a more dominant role and she does an excellent job.

SONE-060
Unleashing Kiyohara Miyuu’s Latent Eroticism to 120%: 45 Days of Abstinence and Big Release Sex
Starring Miyuu Kiyohara
I've been waiting for something a bit more plot-driven from Miyuu Kiyohara but unfortunately, we still haven't gotten anything like that yet except for one film and it wasn't even that great to begin with. This one is more on the vanilla side featuring a rather light premise centering around the idea of Miyuu abstaining from sex for a period of 45 days. I doubt there's much truth to that honestly. It's all pretty silly. So the plot may be a miss but perhaps the action is at least enjoyable. Thankfully it is. Overall it features four sex scenes and a blowjob scene. I do wish that the BJ scene could've been swapped out for a tittyfuck scene but other than that I have no major complaints. I especially love the use of body oil in one of the scenes giving her a super effective shine all over. It makes for some spectacular eyecandy watching her glistening boobs jiggle.
That leads me to what is certainly one of the best aspects of the film, the eyecandy factor. Miyuu looks stunning throughout. Her wardrobe is pretty limited besides a nice lingerie piece at the end but just physically she looks immaculate. The production values are all generally solid if not a little dull. The lighting at least is solid and does a great job of highlighting her chest. The camerawork is generally fine although in the POV scene, the framerate of the scene is quite choppy and kinda ruins it. And lastly, her performance is nothing too special. It's hard to gauge her acting as a whole so far as she's just been given straightforward vanilla releases. That being said, I do think there's potential with her. But here though she's just okay at best. I'd like to see more opportunities for her bubbly personality to shine through. It's nothing too groundbreaking overall but SONE-060 does serve up some juicy eyecandy at least and should whet the appetite of any diehard Miyuu lover.

MEYD-897
“Huh… Two, for this price…!?” I Was Continuously Toyed Around by Cheap BBA Dispatch Health 3P Course Until My Balls Were Empty
Starring Nene Tanaka & Yuria Yoshine
I've made it no secret that these two are easily one of my favorite duos in JAV right now. They are a thick snacc combo meal. So naturally, I was eager to check this one out. But unfortunately, it's a bit of a disappointment. The plot isn't anything too special as it casts the pair as sex workers who approach this man on the street and promise him a good time at a discount. They go back to the hotel room and proceed to go at it for the rest of the film. I honestly found the premise kinda dull and it never really goes anywhere interesting. Compounding this dull feeling is the production values which do little to boost the experience. By far the biggest issue I have is with the lighting. It's so uninspired and flat while doing nothing to accent their figures at all.
The settings fare about the same as they're pretty bland all around with the entire film taking place in a hotel room which makes it all feel quite monotonous. I also wanna point out that I really didn't like Nene's hairstyle here. She's always sporting some new look or color but this one is just not good at all. On a slightly more positive note, the action is mildly more enjoyable. It consists of three sex scenes and two paizuri scenes. The action overall is pretty solid and evenly features the pair although it does get off to a slow start. In addition, there's very little interaction between them which is a real bummer. Individually though their performances are serviceable. MEYD-897 is ultimately one of their weakest outings together mainly marred by the lackluster production values.
Overall Rating - 6.8/10
I'm a sucker for any new Noa Haruna videos so naturally, I had to give this one a shot. The plot isn't anything too unique as it basically just casts Noa as a sex worker who is hired by a few guys as she meets up with them in a hotel room for some action. It's very vanilla and simple. That's really all there is to it. Next up let's talk about the action itself. It mainly consists of two sex scenes, two paizuri scenes, and an extended masturbation/toying scene. I will say that sequence there is pretty dull and not too exciting as it kinda just drags on for way too long. The sex scenes are at least solid and incorporate a decent array of positions. All around they make for a fine watch but nothing too memorable. Now production values can really make or break a film like this and the final results are mixed.
I say mixed for mainly the camerawork as there are some shots that are less than ideal giving you a rather poor view of the action, especially in the 2nd sex scene when they're fucking on the couch. Otherwise, it's not too bad overall. The lighting is generally nice and I really like the lingerie piece she wears in the first sex scene. And of course, Noa Haruna's chest looks outstanding as always. I wish I could say the same about her acting but it's about what you expect. She's pretty mediocre across the board although fares a bit better in the first half at least. In the 2nd scene, she seems quite turned off by the actor. ONSG-075 is an all-around fine watch if you're a big fan of hers but otherwise, it's nothing special. You get some good eyecandy if nothing else.

WAAA-339
Unlimited Creampies from Friday to Monday with a Female Boss Who Becomes a Kissing Fiend
Starring Mizuki Yayoi
I went into this one not really expecting a whole lot as it features a theme that I don't really care for too much. But to my surprise, it was quite enjoyable. The plot centers around Mizuki playing a female boss who takes one of her male employees out one night. Soon afterwards she takes him back to his place and begins to come on to him leading to some hanky panky. The rest of the film follows the two as they form a relationship together and go it at like rabbits. It's definitely not the most original setup but it works and Mizuki certainly carries it thanks to her fantastic performance. Mizuki is easily one of the most reliable performers around and that hasn't changed at all. She's super expressive, cheeky, and full of energy. Her raw enthusiasm here is just impeccable especially when she gets into the cowgirl position as she pounds the guy into the dirt.
Now it's no secret that Mizuki has lost a considerable amount of weight recently and while I still vastly prefer her previously thicker physique, she still looks good here. Her ass has lost some mass for sure but it's still got a great shape to it. The weight loss does make her fake tits stand out more which is a downside. The production values do go a long way in elevating her appearance as the lighting is exceptional and her wardrobe is equally nice. I really like how she'll keep her lingerie or panties on during sex as it helps to frame her ass extremely well. Sometimes the camerawork is a little off but it's not a huge deal. The action is terrific as well featuring two full sex scenes, a few brief sex scenes, and a handjob scene. The pacing for one is superb as there's very little downtime and each scene is briskly paced. And the position variety is solid too. Despite not caring for the kissing theme and missing thick Mizuki, this was a satisfying watch. Mizuki's acting is still very much top-notch.

DASS-341
Predatory Housewife Who Won’t Let Go Once She Catches a Virgin in Between
Starring Maria Nagai
It feels like it's been a hot minute since we've last seen Maria in any film with a plot to it. So naturally I was very eager to see how she'd fare. The premise of this one casts Maria as a sexually frustrated housewife who takes her urges out on a next-door neighbor who just so happens to be a virgin. This turns into an ongoing affair until the very end when the husband walks in on the two and Maria seemingly gives no fucks and continues on. I enjoyed the setup as it fits Maria's vibe and overall it's nice seeing her take on a specific role for once in what feels like forever. Performance wise I think Maria does a fine enough job but I can't say I was too blown away. She plays her role well and does what she's supposed to but at times it doesn't feel natural as well as her facial expressions feeling like a mixed bag. It's nothing too damning but noticeable from time to time.
On a stronger and more positive note, the production values are terrific here. Das! always seems to be reliable in this area and once again they deliver. The settings are all decently varied and both the lighting and camerawork are on point. I wasn't a fan of the virgin killer sweater she sports in the last scene but thankfully it comes off rather quickly once the action begins. Speaking of which, let's talk about the action. It consists of two-and-a-half sex scenes, a blowjob scene, and a brief scene of the two playing around in the kitchen while the husband is nearby making for a nice element of risk. There is a fair amount of setup involved which is to be expected with a more plot-driven film. It all makes for a more coherent experience in the end. I will say I wish there was more ass focus though. There's a little bit here but not nearly enough for my taste. DASS-341 is definitely worth a watch especially if you're craving a little more plot with your Maria Nagai films.

SONE-063
Shooting With A Mega-ton K-Cup 4K Equipment × Super-Fleshy Paizuri-Specialized Sex Establishment
Starring Haru Minato
Haru Minato has become a monthly watch for me so naturally I had to check out her newest release. This one is relatively devoid of any real plot as it mostly just casts Haru into a range of different sex worker roles such as a masseuse and soapland girl to name a few. It's not a particular plot that I'm really into all that much but I appreciate the range of scenarios at least and that it's not just another bland vanilla film like her first handful of films. However, some scenes are still somewhat forgettable such as the last sex scene. Speaking of which, let's talk about the action. It consists of three sex scenes, a paizuri scene, and a scene where she plays with her tits in front of the camera. The sex scenes all fare reasonably well even though I'm not too keen on the soapland setup in the first one.
All the cumshots appear to be real too which is a major plus. The one annoyance I have is that the the bunnygirl outfit is just kinda wasted on the paizuri scene. Why couldn't THAT be the sex scene instead? It's frustrating no doubt. Performance wise I don't have too much to say. She does an alright job for the most part but doesn't stand out in any way. Lastly, the production values are mostly solid but I do have one complaint which is with the camerawork. It can be rather wonky at times with some angles that aren't the best framed. It's not a dealbreaker but did impact the overall satisfaction for me personally. SONE-063 makes for a fine watch but nothing more than that really. There's nothing terrible about it but also nothing too noteworthy either.
