Pan Takes July 2023 - Vol 1
Summer is here and it's given us lots to enjoy. July overall was a pretty strong month for new releases. This entry is ripe with all my usual favorites such as Yayoi Mizuki and Hana Himesaki but also a few newer ones like Jun Suehiro and Sora Amakawa. As always I'll review each film and give an overall score at the end. Now without further ado, let's dive in!
MIAA-887
Whispering Harem Company Affair With Two Big Ass Juniors In The Company
Starring Jun Suehiro & Yayoi Mizuki
Talk about a damn fine cover am I right? Nothing but pure booty eyecandy. Here we see the duo playing two slutty office ladies who are lusting after their boss. They end up stumbling upon him tipsy in the streets and decide to take him back to a love hotel to "take care" of him. They fuck him both in the hotel room and in the office multiple times. It's an okay setup overall. Not one that I'm huge on but it gets the job done. I personally just would've liked to have seen them take him back to his place for some sneaky sex at least once but oh well. Speaking of the action, it's pretty great. It contains three sex scenes and a blowjob scene with each one featuring both actresses together. Every scene here is enjoyable thanks to a heightened focus on their asses and the fact that all the cumshots are real, from what I can tell at least. My only slight gripe is that the pacing can be a little slow at times.
Now where the film starts to falter a bit is in the production values. The settings for one could've been more varied. Featuring roughly the same hotel room and office setting twice each is a little redundant especially when there are plenty of other choices they could've gone with instead. It doesn't help that the lighting in the two hotel room scenes is nearly identical making them feel even more repetitive. Their wardrobe is great at least and the camerawork is generally fine with no major flaws. And lastly, regarding their performances, both do an excellent job despite the lack of any real meaningful interactivity between the pair. Both are very spunky, lively, and brimming with energy. When one actress isn't directly involved in the action, the other always tries to do something to stay engaged. These two make for a strong duo and really help bring this premise to life with terrific results. Two stunning asses together, what more can you want?

SSIS-793
Obscene Massage, Restraint Toy Attack
Starring Tsukasa Aoi
Tsukasa Aoi's previous film really blew me away so I was eager to see what she has in store next. Unfortunately, the results are rather underwhelming. This is just another classic example of an S1 film devoid of any real plot and instead is just centered around stimulation and excessive toy use. How exciting right? I really just loathe this setup as it's so painfully bland and uninspired. And sadly Tsukasa's performance does little to help boost this premise. To be fair, she's not really given much to work with but she's still pretty lacking. Her facial expressions are quite stiff and she's not that engaging at all. Pretty dull across the board.
The action fares a bit better at least featuring two one-on-one sex scenes, a group sex scene, and a forgettable masturbation/toying scene with extremely excessive vibrator use. The sex scenes at least are enjoyable for the most part thanks to their high intensity as she does get fucked pretty hard. However, the toy use and focus on stimulation really bog down the pacing and drag out the runtime. Now regarding the production values, there's not much to say. The settings are just as plain as the theme but at least the lighting is on-point and the camerawork is generally fine. Overall though, SSIS-793, is just an okay watch at best. The action is solid at least and Tsukasa looks great but the theme is painfully bland and her acting doesn't really help.

MIRD-230
When I Preached To My 3 Busty Stepdaughters Who Wandered Around My House Without A Bra... They Fucked Me Back With 300% Close Contact
Starring Hana Himesaki, Maya Kikuchi & Misono Mizuhara
Three busty actresses together in one? This is certainly right up my alley and the end result was quite satisfying. The setup revolves around a man whose wife goes out for a few days leaving him alone with his three busty stepdaughters. He tries to resist their temptation but he is no match for them as they end up fucking him silly over and over. It's a fun premise that is executed quite well with a nice variety to the scene scenarios helping each one feel unique and memorable. This leads me to the production values which are excellent across the board. One aspect I really liked is the lighting as it has this hazy, almost dreamlike feel to it which plays into the fantasy of the plot. The camerawork is fantastic too although there are a few brief moments where they'll look directly into the camera despite it not being POV. It kind of gets in the way of the immersion a bit.
And there's some static camera use for a scene but at least it's handled in a fun way. Next up is their acting which is another highlight. All three are extremely playful and enthusiastic as they fit perfectly into their youthful roles. Just don't expect much interaction between them and you'll be fine. They also utilize their boobs quite well and are always playing with them in some way keeping things entertaining. The action is just as great too with two sex scenes, a blowjob scene, a handjob scene, and a paizuri scene. Every scene incorporates the full cast which is always nice and each actress gets an equal amount of screentime too. I do wish that the handjob scene was cut out to make room for another sex scene possibly but it does add some variety if nothing else. Overall I'd say it's certainly one of the better group films that I've seen all year thanks to its stellar eyecandy, production values, and terrific action.
Overall Rating - 9/10
ROYD-133
Prize From The Busty Private Tutor
Starring Non Ohana
Wouldn't we all like to have Non Ohana as a private tutor growing up? That's precisely the setup here as we see her being hired by a mama to help out her struggling boy. When Non realizes nothing is quite working yet, she resorts to using her body as motivation. This leads to some funny moments such as when the two are going at it as he's actively studying and writing answers down on her body. It makes excellent use of the plot and is executed very well. It also helps that Non is a great fit for this role as she has that mature look to her and she delivers a solid performance on top of that. She's pretty engaging overall while boasting terrific facial expressions and a nice uplifting vibe.
Now the action is a bit on the light side but still satisfying. It consists of two sex scenes, a handjob/blowjob scene, and an introductory titty-fondling type scene at the start. The sex scenes are great for sure and the handjob scene is solid but I can't help but wish there was a bit more here considering it's two-and-a-half-hours long. A few scenes take too long to get going which bloats the runtime considerably. Lastly, the production values as a whole are fine but nothing is too noteworthy. One minor gripe I have is with the lighting as the two sex scenes feature roughly the same look. While ROYD-133 has a few flaws, I still had a really great time with it. The entertaining plot goes a long way to keep you engaged on top of Non's solid acting and quality sex.

JUNY-095
She Seduces Them Unknowingly With Her Transparent Panties And Huge Ass
Starring Reina Kuroka
It's been a little while since I last reviewed a new Reina Kuroki film but truthfully her past several films just weren't to my liking. But this one though did manage to catch my eye. It features a theme that I'm personally a huge fan of. Reina plays the role of a housewife who inadvertently leads random men on and ends up having sex with them. This is done by her wearing see-through dresses and no bra. This leads to plenty of juicy eyecandy which is easily one of the film's biggest strengths. Her thick figure and big ass look amazing. Faring not quite as well sadly is her acting. In contrast to her curvy body, she's pretty flat as a performer with weak energy, very dull expressions, and no real spark at all. She really doesn't do much of anything at all here.
Just lousy across the board. Thankfully the action proves to be more enjoyable. It consists of three sex scenes, a paizuri scene, and a solo masturbation scene that is mildly satisfying as Reina does look fantastic during it. And the sex scenes are all quite solid backed by some stellar camerawork capturing really nice shots of her booty. One negative though is that there are no real cumshots here at all. The creampies are all fake and the only other cumshot present is from the paizuri scene which is fake too. There's no excuse for not having at least one real load. So while I definitely enjoyed this more than her previous films, it still suffers from a few issues, mainly weak acting, that keep it from being a must-watch.

DVDMS-972
A Lovey-Dovey College Couple Is Split Into A Male-Female Couple In A Special Magic Mirror Room And Challenged By An AV Actress And A Male Actor To Endure Their Amazing Technique!
Starring Yayoi Mizuki
This is easily one of my favorite series from Deeps's so when I found out that Yayoi Mizuki was doing an entry for it I was pretty stoked. And thankfully it completely lived up to my expectations. Now I'm not entirely sure what the exact premise is so if anyone can speak Japanese then please feel free to correct me in the comments. Basically, it centers around two amateur couples with the guy being given the challenge of enduring a certain amount of time or a number of loads from Yayoi. I'm not sure which but either way both guys fail it resulting in the girlfriends getting fucked behind the one-way mirror. I'm always a huge fan of these game show esque setups despite the fact they're likely staged. It's just very engaging and entertaining. That is mainly due in-part to Yayoi's sensational performance.
If there's one word to summarize her acting here it's "spunky". She's so full of energy and is super expressive as she takes complete control from start to finish. There's never a dull moment as leaves each guy breathless at the end. There's even a moment where she "snowballs" a guy's load into his mouth. She's just amazing here. Now there's not much to say regarding the production values since it all takes place in one location with the same lighting and camerawork pretty much each time, which isn't a bad thing because it works well enough. The pacing can be a bit long in the tooth though coming in at over 4 hours. And the scenes with the girlfriend are a little hit-or-miss. The first one is pretty attractive but I didn't care much for the 2nd one. But still, this film serves as a perfect showcase for Yayoi's talents including her strong acting and phenomenal ass. Add this fun challenge theme to it and you've got a really entertaining watch.

MKMP-516
Love Hotel Sex Is Awesome! A Harem Of Titty Girls' Party Where J-Chan With Plump And Big Tits Makes A Virgin Teacher Cum!
Starring Alice Otsu, Ena Koume & Non Ohana
This has to be one of the most random assortment of actresses I've seen in a while. I enjoy all three for sure but I don't know how well they fit together. The plot for this centers around the group playing a trio of sex workers who pick up a lucky school teacher off the street who just so happens to be a virgin and proceed to give him a cherry-popping experience to remember. It's a decent enough plot but the execution is where this film falters. The biggest grievances are with the action. It consists of a group handjob and sex scene, a one-on-one sex scene with Non Ohana, and a threesome with Alice and Ena. Doesn't sound bad but my main issue is that the cast is only together on-screen for two scenes and one is just for a lousy handjob. And even for the group sex scene at the end, it's only Alice having sex. It's such a waste.
Not only that but in the threesome with Alice and Ena, Alice barely does anything and just sits on the sidelines. The Non Ohana sex scene is fine but just fine, nothing more. Also don't expect any interaction between the cast. There's virtually nothing in that regard sadly. Individually they all deliver a good performance at least. Moving on to the production values which are a rather mixed bag. It's definitely not bad but could've been a lot better starting with the lighting. Several scenes incorporate the same lighting setup on top of reusing the same setting. The wardrobe here isn't too bad as we do get them wearing schoolgirl outfits but they also wear swimsuits which I'm personally not a fan of at all. I always held Million's harem videos in a low regard and this film did nothing to change that view. It's not complete garbage and has a few redeeming qualities but it's mostly forgettable at the end of the day.

SSIS-784
After A Month Of Abstinence And Impatience, She Comes With Her Full J-Cup Body With The Highest Sensitivity!
Starring Nagi Hikaru
Always count on Nagi Hikaru and S1 to deliver an eye-catching cover. Does the video live up to the cover? Well...not entirely. Most of that stems from the utterly mundane setup. I've really grown quite tired of this setup that proposes the actress has sustained from sex for a month before letting loose. I'm always suspicious of the validity of it all and even then it's just kinda bland, much like most of current S1 plots. Nagi's acting is a bit more intense as a result which is nice. It's at least a slight step up from her usual outing as she sports a little more enthusiasm and engagement overall. We even get a scene where she tittyfucks a supposed crew member after a masturbation session. Of course, it's all staged but still entertaining.
Speaking of the action, it's pretty good for the most part. It consists of two one-on-one sex scenes, a group sex scene, and a paizuri scene as mentioned earlier. What's especially nice is that all the cumshots are real and the intensity of it all is quite high throughout. But a few scenes feature a little too much setup before it gets going. Especially the paizuri scene with its 20 minutes of masturbation that is honestly forgettable in the long run. Beyond that, I can safely say the production values are on point as always. A few of the settings are a little bland but the lighting, camerawork, and hair/makeup are superb. The setup may be very derivative but at least the action is entertaining and Nagi looks amazing once again making for some stunning eyecandy.

A Nurse With A Quick Pussy Who Makes You Ejaculate With Her Devoted Blowjob And Pussy Nursing
Starring Sora Amakawa
Sora Amakawa has been really impressing me lately as she's even made my recent top 10 asses post. In this one, we see her take on the role of a lewd nurse who specializes in using her hands and mouth to "treat" some lucky patients. Some even get to fuck her. And you expect a few instances of male squirting too so beware if that's not your thing. I personally always love a good slutty nurse theme and Sora does an excellent job with it overall. Her eye contact is very strong throughout while also boasting exceptional enthusiasm. She can be a real firecracker on screen and certainly has the potential to grow even more. Don't be surprised if she becomes of the best performers around. Now most of the technical aspects fare quite well although the camerawork could've been better at times.
My main issue is that some shots are too close to the action and don't give you the most optimal view. Just really wonky all around although there is some nice POV use in a few scenes. Another nitpick is some repetitive settings as two scenes reuse the same room just with a different lighting setup. But on the positive side, her wardrobe is super sexy with some lovely nurse garb and sexy lingerie. This now brings me to the action which is another slight mixed bag. It consists of two sex scenes and four blowjob/handjob scenes. The sex scenes are fantastic for sure but all the other scenes start to wear out their welcome. Her energetic acting does help to alleviate that issue to an extent but it's still the same sex act every scene. It just gets old after a while. All that said though, I still had a great time here. I do wish the variety in the action was a bit better and the camerawork is a little off but everything else here is remarkable.
