Pan Takes - February 2022
February proved to be a pretty fruitful month bearing several exciting new releases and some tantalizing collaborations. We got to see the likes of Nanami Matsumoto, Hana Himesaki, and Mina Kitano team up with a few different actresses to varying results as you'll see down below. In addition, we were treated to Hana's first-ever interracial experience as well as Maria Nagai's second. Now without further ado, let's kick things off with a delightful team-up between Nanami Matsumoto and Ruka Inaba.
WAAA-142
"I Was Set Up By My Sexy Female Bosses For A Reverse NTR In A Shared Room"
February saw several new 3P releases which we all know can be very hit-or-miss. A Nanami and Ruka duo sounds enticing on paper but how does it actually fare? Not too bad really. The plot centers around the pair playing two alluring bosses who find out their employee is having a forbidden work relationship. They decide to "punish" him by fucking him silly while out on a business trip. It's a great setup that makes for plenty of dominant threesome action. Although it does get off to a slow start taking about 20 minutes before anything really happens. Thankfully when it does happen it's pretty good consisting of three sex scenes and a paizuri scene. Two gripes I have though are too many fake cumshots and minimal interactions.
Other than that the scenes are quite nice with each actress getting an equal spotlight. And there's lots of facesitting which I love. The production quality is quite sound overall. The setting variety is decent enough considering setup, their wardrobe is terrific with some sexy OL garb and lingerie, and the lighting is top-notch going for a softer feel that suits the film nicely. Performance-wise they both do an adequate job although I do think Ruka fared better overall. Their chemistry together was alright but nothing that really blew me away. WAAA-142 is a relatively solid 3P film with a great cast. Just don't expect much interaction between them and you'll have a good time.

"Amateur Reverse Pick-Up Artist: Maria Nagai Is So Horny From Abstinence!"
After her dud release from the previous month I was hoping for something better. Thankfully this film delivers. The plot centers around Maria picking up "random" men off the streets and showing them a good time. It's your typical reverse pick-up type setup although with an extra caveat which is the fact that Maria supposedly has abstained from sex for an entire month(I believe). This does lead to her being more energetic than usual. It's an alright premise but it feels a little stale as we've been seeing this plot being used in many films recently. Thankfully the action is generally pretty great. It boasts three full sex scenes overall. The low scene count is my biggest nitpick as the pacing is a little slow and should've been trimmed down to give us another scene.
Beyond that, the sex is intense and features some actual real cumshots. One scene is even an interracial scene that makes for one of the best I've ever seen. This is mostly due to her terrific performance. Maria really enjoys herself here and lets loose. It's refreshing to have an interracial scene that isn't forceful with the actress being submissive. Throughout the whole film, she's enthusiastic such as when she pulls aside a crew member to jerk him off after a scene. The production values are decent with the best highlight being her appearance as both her makeup and wardrobe are stunning. However, the parked car setting in the 2nd scene is too cramped and the pacing is a little slow. Still a great film all around.

"In Many Ways, I'm In Trouble, Sandwiched Here Between The Tits Of My Older Stepsister And Younger Stepsister"
A POV film starring two of my favorite busty actresses in Hana Himesaki and Misono Mizuhara? Sign me up! The general premise is very simple as it centers around you having copious amounts of sex with your two stepsisters. It's super straightforward and what you see is what you get. While it is a nice setup it does wear a bit thin by the end. Part of this can be attributed to the action. It features two sex scenes, a handjob scene, and lastly a paizuri scene. I feel rather mixed here. I say that because the pacing is certainly a little slow in some scenes taking a bit too long to get going. While the setup is somewhat more engaging in POV, it can still be a tad dull at times. In addition, the two non-sex scenes are pretty forgettable overall.
The two sex scenes are solid though but still feel a little repetitive as they roughly follow the same structure each time. It doesn't help that the cumshots here are either entirely fake or just lackluster as a whole. One of the best aspects has to be the eye-candy factor. These two look fantastic together and make a great pair. Now don't expect any interaction between them sadly as there's virtually none. This is somewhat forgivable at least considering their roles. This leads me to their chemistry which fares alright at best. They do fine but I wasn't feeling a big connection between them. CAWD-338 makes for some juicy eye-candy but leaves you feeling a little underwhelmed with its average sex and acting.

"Masochist Guy's House: Can I Come Along With You?"
Here we have a fan thanksgiving style film for the lovely Ruu Yumemi. I'm a big fan of this theme so I was naturally excited to give it a watch. As you can probably guess the central premise revolves around Ruu visiting three lucky fans in their homes and having some fun with them. Now obviously these are likely actors but the fantasy of the theme is always nice and one many of us would surely love to experience ourselves. A strong performance is always vital for this genre and Ruu does a fine job throughout. You won't be blown away by any means but she's serviceable enough with fine enthusiasm and engagement in every scene.
When it comes to the action it's admittedly a little lackluster. There are two sex scenes, a handjob scene, and a paizuri scene in all with each one usually ending in her making the guy squirt after cumming which is rather amusing. The cumshots are all real at least which is something to be admired right now but the position variety is pretty weak mainly in the first sex scene. The production values are just okay at best with average lighting and camerawork. The wardrobe is a mixed bag for me personally as she does wear a few nice outfits but then one scene has her wearing a virgin killer sweater for the whole sex scene which I'm not a fan of at all. All around a decent fan thanksgiving film but not one that leaves a strong lasting impression.

"Just Once She Wants To Share Her Huge Tits With Someone Else In The Infirmary! Her Bust Is An I-Cup! Doctor Monami's Megaton Milker Sex Education"
It had been a while since I last watched any new film from Monami Takarada. This one surely helped to reignite my interest in her. The premise here centers around Monami playing a very lewd school nurse who seduces her students via her big tits and tittyfucks. Who doesn't love a horny school nurse plot? It's executed very nicely and Monami is a perfect fit for this role. A great performance is needed here and Monami definitely delivers. Her facial expressions are spot-on, she takes the lead in every scene, and boasts relatively solid enthusiasm. I'd say it's one of her better performances to date. The action is just as good too boasting two sex scenes and two paizuri scenes.
If I have any real gripe with the action it's that the paizuri cumshots are quite underwhelming and leave you feeling unsatisfied by the end. Thankfully the rest of the action is superb with great variety in its positions but also setups as every scene features a unique scenario that keeps things fresh. Last but not least is the outstanding production values. Her wardrobe is absolutely stunning filled with sexy lingerie and pantyhose that suits her perfectly. The lighting is incredible as every scene features its own distinct setup that wonderfully accentuates her figure. All in all, it's one of my favorite Monami Takarada films ever and I highly recommend it to any avid fan of hers.

"We are Sending You a Busty Monster Slut Who Suddenly Gives You a Titty Fuck and Blowjob"
Who wouldn't want to receive a personal visit to their home from the lovely Karen Yuzuriha? The general premise is exactly like your typical fan thanksgiving type setup with Karen visiting some lucky "fans" at their home and having sex with them. Now of course these are definitely just actors but it's still a nice plot that allows for Karen to just be herself without adhering to a specific role which is always nice. How does she fare? Pretty well overall. It's not the best performance I've seen from this genre but she does a solid job. She's decently engaging, expressive, and boasts good energy throughout. Could've been a bit better in some areas but nothing too egregious to complain about.
Now the sex and the pacing leave a little to be desired. There are three sex scenes and a paizuri scene spread out over 2 hrs and 40 min which is rather ridiculous. There can be quite a bit of foreplay and interviewing that really bogs the film down which is most apparent in the 2nd scene as it can really drag on. The sex itself is terrific at least but of course, there are numerous fake creampies and a suspicious tittyfuck cumshot. No real cumshots is always a downer. Lastly, the technical aspects are fine but nothing too remarkable. The lighting and camerawork are serviceable and her wardrobe does feature a few nice full body fishnet outfits. PPPE-005 is just an average fan thanksgiving film at the end of the day.

"Cheating With The Black Private Tutor"
The time has come for Hana Himesaki's interracial debut. Is it worth the wait? Well...sorta. The central premise revolves around Hana having an ongoing sexual relationship with her new black tutor. All this while keeping it a secret from her boyfriend, until the end that is. In the last scene, she shows him a sextape of the two having sex which reduces the boyfriend to tears ending the film with a real downer which I wasn't a fan of. Overall I didn't much care for the plot as I'm not huge on NTR but others that are will get probably enjoy it. Thankfully the rest of the film fares better starting with the action featuring two sex scenes and two blowjob scenes. There's a nice variety of positions and even the blowjob scenes are satisfying.
Unfortunately the cumshots are mostly fake. The creampies for sure are and others with him cumming inside her mouth are a bit suspicious. Now regarding her performance, she is mostly submissive which certainly fits the theme of the film but I wasn't too impressed overall. She's not very engaging and her facial expressions are mostly lackluster. It definitely doesn't ruin the film but leaves something to be desired. On a more positive note, the film is well executed with good lighting and even better camerawork that captures some real nice variety of angles. I will say though the pacing is a little slow at times. All around not too bad. While I do still think Yuria has the best IR film still this year, this one is still worth a watch especially if you like NTR.

"Getting My Hated Female Superior Who Always Nags Me With Her Lectures To Finally Shut Up By Sticking It In All Her 3 Holes"
That certainly is some interesting censorship work on that cover. It's pretty nice despite that honestly. I wasn't expecting much from this film as it's not a genre I typically enjoy, but it was mildly satisfying. Here we see Yuria playing a shrewd office boss who gets forcefully fucked by her male employees. They take turns going at her in the office and then eventually at home as they treat her to some anal and even DP. This theme isn't my cup of tea personally but if you do enjoy it then you'll probably have a good time here. Yuria's acting certainly helps in that regard as she delivers a solid submissive performance, at least to start. She's not too whiny, her facial expressions are fitting, and she really settles into her role quite well overall.
But once the anal begins she becomes really loud and whiny to the point where it severely dampers the scenes. The action fares pretty well for the most part. It features three sex scenes with one being a threesome, a blowjob scene, and lastly an anal toying scene that goes on for way too damn long. The first two sex scenes are terrific thanks to the clothed sex aspect and the raw intensity. There is some DP of course in the last scene but it can be hard to enjoy thanks to her whiny acting and the censorship. I gotta commend the production values for sure as the lighting is spot-on fitting the tone of the film perfectly and the settings are all decently varied. I say it's worth a watch if you really enjoy anal, dp, and darker setups.

JUFE-366
"Conception Manor: Threesomes With Cum-Craving Busty Sisters Who Run A Private Lodging"
Imagine checking into a lodge run by these two. That's precisely the setup here for this enticing duo cast film. The premise is pretty simple as it follows a man booking a stay at a lodge operated by Mina and Miu. They proceed to show him the best hospitality by fucking him silly in typical JAV fashion. I feel generally lukewarm about this theme. It's not terribly exciting but it works well enough. Without a doubt the best aspect here is Mina's performance. She really carries the film on her back with exuberant passion and energy on top of boasting engaging facial expressions. Miu herself is fine but the difference between them is quite noticeable as she takes a backseat often to let Mina take the spotlight. Plus, the chemistry is lacking between them.
Mina is easily making a case for herself though as one of the best performers around right now. The sex fares decently well but feels lacking in threesome action. Only three scenes feature them together while the other two are just a mediocre paizuri scene and an average blowjob scene. There are two solo sex scenes as well that are fine but nothing too remarkable. The true threesome sex scene is solid at least. Another minor issue is that nearly all the cumshots are fake creampies. The production values are a bit mixed too as the lighting is hit-or-miss but the pacing is nicely balanced. In the end, it's a passable 3P film that is mostly saved by Mina and her electric performance. Otherwise, it'd be quickly forgotten.

"An Unscrupulous Transporter Who Couldn't Stand The Sight Of A Married Woman's Large Buttocks"
Yayoi Mizuki has really shot up my personal rankings lately. Her ass is out of this world. So as such, I couldn't wait to check out this new release from her. The plot casts Yayoi as an alluring big booty housewife who ends up getting fondled by a deliveryman. This of course leads to him fucking her and the two proceed to share an ongoing sexual relationship throughout the film. All leading to her fully indulging in it while wearing some sexy lingerie and practically begging for it. The plot isn't exactly my cup of tea but it gets the job done. Yayoi's performance is pretty average as she does well as being submissive to start but isn't super convincing in the last scene when she's supposed to be fully enjoying herself.
The action all around is terrific boasting two sex scenes, an assjob scene, and a masturbation scene. The film does bog down a bit in the middle with a heavy focus on toy use and masturbation but there's some nice ass eyecandy at least. The sex scenes are superb overall with a nice position variety and good intensity. All of which is further enhanced by the top-notch camerawork always capturing some stunning angles of her big ass in action. There is some fish eye use here but it's not too obnoxious. Her wardrobe throughout is definitely worth mention at least for the last scene where she sports some sexy lingerie and "fuck me" pasties. MRHP-005 is a quality-ass-focused film sure to please any avid Yayoi Mizuki fan.

Comments
I agree with you MVSD-499 is great and would recommend it to others. I rated it slightly lower but still pretty close. Would also recommend PPPE-010 if you want more Monami, it's a duo with Nanami but it's even better than this.
