Hana Himesaki: 2021 JAV Star of the Year
Deciding on my actress of the year for 2021 was actually not that difficult. Much like last year when I chose Kurea Hasumi, I pretty much knew right away who I was gonna pick. It's of course none other than Hana Himesaki. Her sheer output this year was completely unmatched by any other actress. Just within the first month of the year, she released approximately 15 new films. She kept up this output throughout the entire year as she released several new films every single month with a wide array of different studios. Now obviously, the quality was a little hit-or-miss at times which is to be expected with so many releases. But the variety was remarkable as her new films featured many different plots, themes, and genres ensuring that there was always something for everyone. Not only that but she collaborated with a nice range of actresses too like Ruka Inaba, Miu Arioka, and Eimi Fukada. With this post, I'd like to highlight her 10 best films from the year. Without further ado, let's begin!
MIAA-481
"She Lives In A Single-Room Apartment With Her Mama... She Can't Even Get Off Without Getting Caught. So Now This Babe With Big Tits Is Taking Her Sexual Frustration Out On Her Neighbor By Taking His Creampies"
What a nice cover right? Thankfully the video more than lives up to it. The premise is pretty original as it indeed casts Hana as a sexually frustrated girl-next-door who just wants some action but she can't really do anything as she lives with her mama. She starts to make some moves on her neighbor though and soon enough they start getting it on. This leads to several scenes of them exploring their newfound sexual relationship such as when she gets a whole bunch of vibrators to try out or when she has a threesome with another male neighbor. It's an entertaining premise that is certainly bolstered by Hana's top-notch acting. Her bubbly and energetic personality really shine through with this plot.
She plays this naive girl-next-door role with such great believability. The action is also equally fantastic with three sex scenes and two paizuri scenes. All the scenes are generally entertaining such as one where she's playing some Tetris-like game on her phone while getting fucked from behind. Now I will say that the vibrator scene I mentioned up above is pretty lackluster but it's not too long at least. Also, there's a lot of fake cumshots here which is a bummer for sure. Finally, as a whole, the production values are fairly solid with adequate lighting, terrific camerawork, and balanced pacing. MIAA-481 is an entertaining ride from start to finish that is sure to please any avid Hana Himesaki fan.
CJOD-323
"Reverse Bunny Sex Shop Tower"
Here we have yet another new Hana film and this one capitalizes on the hot new trend of bunny girls. CJOD-323 revolves around Hana playing a wide array of sex worker roles such as a hostess, soapland girl, and masseuse. All this while of course dressing up in a variety of bunny girl outfits. The plot isn't anything particularly innovative but it's serviceable and makes way for some enjoyable bunny girl action. Which speaking of the action, it's good but lacking a bit. I say this because 2/5 scenes are handjobs and the scene that features the cover outfit is a mere paizuri scene which is a letdown. However, the actual sex scenes fare pretty well. And the cumshots here are all real which is a big plus in this current age of JAV.
Hana's acting here is certainly a major highlight. Her bright and charming personality really shines through as she sports excellent facial expressions and engages quite nicely with each actor. She's got excellent energy all around helping to make for a terrific performance all around. Lastly, the production values are all top-notch. The settings are varied enough to keep each scene somewhat fresh. The camerawork and lighting are nice too helping to set the appropriate mood. But best of all is easily Hana's wardrobe. All the bunny girl outfits look absolutely amazing making for some stunning eye candy. Besides a few slight issues, this is a really well-executed film and one of my favorite bunnygirl entries.
EBOD-871
"Old Man Panting From Titty Fuck Right After Cumming Is Shut Up With Huge Tits Press"
Hana Himesaki has been on a roll this year with many quality releases and here we have yet another one. As if one busty bombshell wasn't enough, you get two in this film. This particular film is pretty straightforward with the lovely pair playing lewd schoolgirls who love to tittyfuck. What's not to love? It's a simple but very effective plot. A big reason as to why it's so successful is their incredible acting. They both deliver exceptional performances full of energy and engagement. On top of that, they're super-expressive making each scene much more entertaining as a result. Couple that with some good chemistry and you've got a very satisfying experience.
The action is just as amazing too. It features 4 scenes that are all threesomes although one is a tittyfuck scene. All the sex scenes are executed wonderfully. They're dynamic with terrific position variety and an equal spotlight on both actresses. Another nice touch is that you'll rarely see the other actress that is not getting fucked doing nothing on the sidelines. They're always involved in the action. There is some fake cum usage which is a slight bummer though. Finally, all the technical aspects are on point with great setting variety, a lewd schoolgirl wardrobe, excellent pacing, and nice lighting. This is one of my favorite films of the year honestly. Busty schoolgirls and tittyfucks make for a perfect combo.
EBOD-804
"My Daughter's Best Friend Seduced Me With The Best Weapon In Her Arsenal (Her Big Tits)"
We've all seen the ol' "seduced by my _____" trope before usually with the girlfriend's sister or best friend. However, in this instance, it's the daughters' best friend which certainly makes for an interesting new twist. The format roughly follows the same story beats as those other examples I mentioned. A girl has her best friend(Hana) visit who seduces her papa and proceeds to have sneaky sex throughout the house while trying to keep their cover. The sense of risk is a tad underutilized as only a few scenes feature it but the scenes that do use it are pretty well handled. One example is the two having sex on the floor while the friend is asleep in her bed. Or another when she gives him a blowjob on the couch while she's in the kitchen.
The other scenes are a bit light on risk but still satisfying all the same. Beyond those two previously mentioned scenes there are two full sex scenes and a paizuri scene. Overall the action is superb with plenty of position variety and good pacing. The production values are another major highlight especially the lighting as it's absolutely on point and helps to accentuate her figure extremely well. This is all tied together by her fantastic performance. She boasts exceptional enthusiasm all the way through and seems like such a natural for this role. Her bubbly and flirty personality really shines here. All this makes for what is easily one of her best films of the year.
FCDC-138
"The Secretary Who Seduces The Employees With Her Big Tits Is A Lewd And Dirty Pervert"
If there's one thing Digital Ark knows how to do it's producing some stunning eye candy and this film is a shining example of that. As with most films in this particular label from Digital Ark, the general theme revolves around OL as Hana plays a lewd secretary who loves to tease and seduce her employees. This is mostly done by flaunting her ass and tits of course. It's a very loose theme that mostly serves as a basic setup just to showcase Hana in some sexy OL attire. Every single outfit here looks amazing as she sports a nice array of high-heels, skirts, pantyhose, and some lingerie too. If you enjoy OL garb, you'll be in love here.
Now admittedly the action is a little light with this film but still solid. There are approximately two full sex scenes alongside a couple of outercourse scenes. Those include some paizuri, handjob, and blowjob action. The film does drag a bit around the halfway mark with a masturbation scene but it's not too bad. The sex scenes fare pretty well overall as they both feature terrific position variety and good pacing. Bolstering all this is the exceptional lighting that really does a nice job of highlighting her curves. Now the camerawork does incorporate some heavy use of fisheye but personally, I'm not too bothered. FCDC-138 is a very straightforward film that absolutely delivers some splendid OL eye candy. What's not to love?
MIAA-461
"Even Though I'm A Teacher I Couldn't Resist My Student's Seduction And I Fucked Her Raw Over And Over At A Love Hotel"
Who wouldn't want this fantasy of having a threesome with two busty schoolgirls? That's precisely the setup in this lovely collaboration film. Now to be honest I'm not 100% sure on the exact reason as to why they're in a love hotel room together as the setup is very brief. But it all basically boils down to these two seducing their teacher into lots and lots of threesomes sex as they fuck all day and night. It's quite similar to the OL boss seduction series that you've seen before but with a schoolgirl twist. As such don't expect much variety in terms of the setting as all the scenes are shot within the hotel room. But Moodyz does try to vary it up with some different lighting and camera setups.
Pacing wise the film does a solid job. None of the scenes drag too much and the film moves at a good pace. Speaking of the scenes, the action is excellent here. Every scene is ultimately a threesome featuring the pair together. Not only that but each one is a sex scene so there's never really a dull moment. Naturally, there are some fake cumshots but it is what it is. Last but not least I gotta mention their acting. Overall they're pretty solid with each boasting good engagement and enthusiasm although Hana makes a stronger impression. Also, don't expect much interaction between the pair here. MIAA-461 delivers some terrific threesome action with a sexy busty duo. Can't go wrong with this film.
GAS-485
"Busty Idol Hana Himesaki's Titty Fucking Is What Everyone Has Been Waiting For"
I'm a big fan of paizuri so it shouldn't come as any surprise to see this film make my list. Now there really isn't much of an overall premise to this one as the entire focus solely revolves around tittyfucking. A few scenes incorporate some slight theming such as the use of an OL setup for one but beyond that, it's very straightforward. It's definitely not a bad thing though as the paizuri action itself is incredible. There are five paizuri scenes featured here with no other type of action to really speak of. Don't expect any sex scenes whatsoever. The paizuri though is quite good thanks to a nice range of techniques used by Hana and some nice cumshots which is always key for a good paizuri scene.
There is some blowjob and handjob use but it's dominated mostly by paizuri. Now another key element of any quality paizuri film is the actress's performance which Hana absolutely knocks out of the park. Her sheer enthusiasm here is some of the best I've seen from any paizuri centric film in recent memory. This film gives her bubbly personality a real chance to shine. Plus her facial expressions and engagement are top-notch too. This alone makes the film worth watching. The production values are pretty solid across the board with some especially nice camerawork that features some superb POV shots. Hana has easily become one of the best paizuri performers around and with this amazing film, it's easy to see why.
HMN-022
"Secretly Making Babies With My Girlfriend's Infatuated Sister"
If this isn't just the absolute most perfect role for Hana Himesaki then I don't know what is. She was born for this. The premise is your standard "seduced by my girlfriend's little sister" type plot. Hana mainly accomplishes this by whipping out her perky tits which are irresistible. I of course really love this theme and the film executes it pretty well. Many of the scenes incorporate an element of risk that greatly heightens the enjoyment of each one. Speaking of the scenes, the action as a whole is fantastic. There are several full sex scenes along with some blowjobs and paizuri. You can expect to see some fake creampies but personally, I wasn't that bothered by it. Unfortunately, it's become the norm these days.
The production values here are pretty good all around. The camerawork is a mix between POV and third-person which is a slight bummer as I wish it was entirely POV. But at the very least the third-person camerawork is handled well. They use some fish-eye lens in one of the POV scenes which feels a bit unnecessary honestly. The lighting is generally solid and the pacing is well balanced. But by far the best aspect is Hana's performance. She really knocks it out of the park. Her bubbly and cheerful personality is a perfect fit for this role. She's so fun to watch and very engaging overall. HMN-022 is by far one of Hana's best films of the year.
EBVR-050
"Busty Bar Hostess Writhes And Shakes As She's Filmed Getting Fucked At Super Close Up Angles!"
When I saw the cover art for this VR film I just had to check it out. I've fallen off of VR films lately but Hana brought me back in. And it was absolutely worth it as this one is eye candy galore. The premise for this one isn't too complex as most VR films are rather simple. It casts Hana as an alluring hostess working at a bar who seduces you. This eventually leads to her tittyfucking you and then full-on sex. It's a fine enough setup that gets the job done and serves as a good initiative for the action. Overall the action is pretty terrific. As I mentioned there's one paizuri scene and one sex scene. The sex scene does feature multiple fake creampies which is a bummer but it's to be expected, unfortunately.
But beyond that slight issue, the rest of the action is super enjoyable. One of the best aspects is the position variety as you're treated to some nice cowgirl, missionary, and even doggystyle. For what it's worth the production values are superb as well with the best aspect being the lighting. The combination of the light behind Hana and her body covered in body oil makes for a marvelous effect. Absolutely stunning. Now the only other negative I have is her acting which is quite hit-or-miss. During the paizuri and some sex portions, she's great. But for the majority of the sex scenes, she's quite whiny and loud sadly. The sheer eye-candy factor alone makes this worth the watch. Hana in VR is just out of this world.
EBOD-852
"Reverse Shame! Reverse Blame! 3 Hotly Rumored Busty Schoolgirls Are Getting The Treatment"
What could be better than one busty schoolgirl? How about three at once? The premise for this film revolves around these 3 actresses playing lewd and slutty schoolgirls who love to fuck. That's really all there is to it as they invite some lucky men to their homes and have their way with them. The film keeps things simple but oh so satisfying. A large part of that is due to the incredible threesome action. Now the scene count is a tad low coming in at just four altogether. They consist of two threesome sex scenes and two handjob/blowjob scenes. What's especially nice is that every scene features the three together and they each get an equal spotlight. The screentime is very fairly balanced in that regard.
The action overall is very intense and boasts a nice amount of positions. Plus, the three are super engaging and actually get involved instead of just sitting on the sidelines like most group films. It's very refreshing. This leads me to their performances which are all fantastic. Each boasts superb enthusiasm and energetic facial expressions. They really make each scene incredibly lively and a blast to watch. The production values are all pretty great for the most part although the pacing is just a bit bloated as some scenes do drag a little. It's just a minor complaint really as everything else is terrific especially the schoolgirl wardrobe. This easily makes for one of the best group films in recent memory and one hell of an entertaining ride.
Comments
I agree on Kurea. Her year has been very forgettable especially compared to 2020. However, I disagree on Maria Nagai. I think she's had a great year as an exclusive for Kira Kira. In fact, her most recent release, BLK-544, was one of her best ever IMO.
