After Hours Adultery with a Busty Boingy Sensual Snack Hostess
Starring Karen Yuzuriha
That's one hell of a cover right? Well unfortunately this film commits one of my worst cardinal sins. That dress is nowhere to be seen in the entire video. It's essentially just clickbait. I just had to get that out of the way first. Let's hope it's all uphill from here. The premise is pretty straightforward with Karen playing a hostess worker having sex with a couple of lucky customers. I'm pretty neutral on this setup as a whole as I can take it or leave it honestly. It all really comes down to the execution starting with the production values which are mostly on point except for a few minor issues. Her wardrobe is decently varied with some nice slutty outfits including a personal favorite of mine, a slingkini. I wasn't too keen on the last outfit though as she keeps her bra on which ends up covering up and restricting her tits. Also, I gotta bring up the aforementioned missing cover outfit.
The lighting is solid for the most part going for a more vibrant look in most scenes. However, it was a bit annoying in the 2nd sex scene as a spotlight heavily lights the scene in the corner of the ceiling that's aimed right at the camera. It's a bit obnoxious but not a deal-breaker. I will say the pacing is pretty balanced across the entire film so no scenes overstay their welcome. This leads me to the action which features three sex scenes and two rather forgettable blowjob scenes. Those scenes aren't too interesting admittedly but all the sex scenes are satisfying thanks to a nice range of positions and intensity that keeps your interest all throughout. And wrapping all this up is Karen's performance which is pretty consistent and is exactly in line with what you expect from her. Great enthusiasm and equally nice engagement. All this results in an enjoyable watch that's held back by a few grievances that don't detract too much from the overall experience.

I Succumbed to the Lust of My Jcup Busty Niece, Even Knowing That it Was Actually a Dangerous Day, I Couldn’t Stop the Creampie…
Starring Misono Mizuhara
It's been a minute since I last checked out a solo Misono release. When I seen this one I knew I had to give it a watch. The premise follows a man who is being visited by his busty niece, Misono. She starts getting a bit too handsy with him and before you know it, she whips her tits out and begins tittyfucking him. The rest of the film goes as expected with the two going at it over and over throughout the 2-and-a-half-hour runtime. I'm not too crazy about the plot but Misono is a good fit for the role at least. If there's one thing that holds it all back though, it's easily the mediocre production values. The lighting for one is quite samey and dull across several scenes. It's drab and doesn't enhance any of her features at all really. I did like the lighting in the last scene and the effect of the applied body oil but even then it was a bit hard to enjoy thanks to my other issues, the camerawork.
It's not all bad but in every scene, they utilize a static camera for some shots and I have no idea why. Many of these angles are just not satisfying at all. On a more positive note, I did enjoy her performance. I think she displays good energy with a certain spunkiness to her. During the sex she can falter a little but overall not too shabby. Speaking of the action, it features three sex scenes, a blowjob scene, a handjob scene, and a paizuri scene. The variety here is terrific and some of the cumshots are quite nice. However, the pacing is a little wack with the handjob scene beginning with an overly long toying segment. Or how the first sex scene encompasses 55 minutes of the runtime. We do get lots of tittyfucking though which is always a treat with Misono. Overall there are some good aspects to this one but the shoddy production values really weigh it down. Some better lighting and ditching the static camera would've made a major improvement.

GVH-654
A Lewd Innkeeper Who Preys on Virgin Customers Inviting with a Plump H-cup Body, Seducing With Superb Service and Creampie
Starring Noa Haruna
It's no secret that I am a massive Noa Haruna fan. So naturally, I had to check this one out. I'm very happy to report that it delivered and makes for one of her better films to date. This one casts her as a seductive innkeeper who has her way with a few lucky male customers. I assume they're supposed to be virgins but that aspect isn't really utilized at all and feels like an afterthought. It's not really important as it's just nice to see Noa take more control than we're used to seeing. And the result isn't half bad. She's way more expressive than usual with great energy. Not to mention she plays the dominant role well enough even making a few "forceful" moves that help to seal the deal such as when she smothers the guy with her huge tits. The action is terrific too except for one issue. It consists of three sex scenes and a paizuri scene. My one main gripe is with the paizuri scene as it's relatively satisfying thanks to her acting but it ends with a fake cumshot which is incredibly frustrating.
Thankfully that one minor gripe isn't enough to fully detract from the overall action as the three sex scenes are fantastic. The position variety is wonderful with plenty of cowgirl to show off her great body and magnificent chest alongside some doggystyle and missionary. And there's plenty of tittyfucking throughout each scene. Now one small annoyance I have overall is with the camerawork. One example is when we're treated to doggystyle in the first sex scene but they spend more time shooting above her than in front to showcase her tits. It's mildly annoying. Other than that I have no issues really with the production values. One aspect that certainly deserves some praise is the lighting as it fits the tone of the film perfectly going for a softer and more subdued approach. All in all, I can confidently say this is an easy recommendation to any Noa fan. If you've been on the fence, give this a shot. Especially since this is her best performance to date.

MTALL-115
Fast Blowjob School Committee Chairperson
Starring Nanami Matsumoto
Nanami's first film as an exclusive with Materiall was a mostly middling watch. Not horrible but nothing too thrilling. Will this one turn out any better? The setup casts Nanami as a school representative who is tired of some of the boys' behavior and lack of attentiveness. She deduces that they're too horny and need a release to properly focus. So she takes matters into her own hands, literally. This mostly of course involves blowjobs but a bit of sex too. It's a fun and lighthearted school theme that is handled decently well overall. One thing that does hold it back though is her acting. At times she's not too bad. But many times her facial expressions for one are lackluster on top of some underwhelming enthusiasm that often felt very one-note. A little more of a spark is vitally needed. While her performance was a letdown, I can confidently say the action fares a bit better.
It features two sex scenes, a blowjob scene, and a paizuri scene. One thing I definitely appreciate is that many of the cumshots are real, except a few fake creampies. The sex scenes aren't too bad but a little more position variety would've been nice and also the blowjobs are just average due to her so-so performance. The production values are mostly solid across the board although I do think the pacing could've been improved. With a 185-minute runtime and only four scenes, I think they should've trimmed a scene or two down to add in another. The lighting is fine but nothing noteworthy. I do like her wardrobe with the schoolgirl outfit and pair of glasses. And the settings are surprisingly varied too using a nice range of rooms. In the end, I do think this film is a step up from the last one but not by as much as I would have liked. Her acting still feels a bit stiff and lacking compared to before which really holds it back. It's still a decent watch but it could've been much more.

SONE-242
Secluded Hot Spring Trip with a Luscious Sweaty K-cup Busty Lover, Experiencing Exhilarating Sexual
Intercourse
Starring Momoka Kagura
It's no secret that Momoka Kagura has become one of my new favorites recently. Here we have her latest hot and steamy release. However, it ends up more lukewarm than anything else. I wish I could've liked it more but the premise just isn't my cup of tea for one. It revolves around Momoka and the actor spending a day at a hot spring together. There's no camera guy or crew on set at all as it goes for a more intimate vibe with just the two by themselves. I just don't care for the hot springs setting and vibe. And not having a camera guy really hampers the satisfaction in the end. Some shots are solid enough, but he'll often just set the camera down for a static shot that frequently results in a lackluster angle. I know some will enjoy the more intimate style but not me.
The lighting at least isn't too bad but it's nothing terribly impressive either. It suits the tone of the film if nothing else. The action fares a bit better across the board consisting of three sex scenes and a paizuri scene. Sometimes the pacing is a tad slow such as with the 2nd sex scene dedicating about 10 minutes to some dull stimulation play. Other than that it's solid with a nice mix of cowgirl, missionary, and doggystyle. Now I hate to say it, but her performance leaves something to be desired. Her enthusiasm is relatively flat and her facial expressions are mostly underwhelming except for a few occasions. The end result is a skippable film even for diehard Momoka fans thanks to its mediocre setup, middling production values, and lackluster performance.

WAWA-024
Goddess With Divine Breasts Nene-chan Squeezed to the Uterus with a Thick Black Cock and Went Crazy with Pleasure
Starring Nene Tanaka
The interracial genre is pretty much on life support nowadays so I was pleasantly surprised to see one of my top favorites Nene Tanaka partake in it. This studio, though, has a reputation for mediocrity, which hasn't changed much. It's a pretty vanilla setup with no plot whatsoever as it just purely focuses on the IR action. Which speaking of, isn't too bad but far from perfect. It consists of two sex scenes with one being a threesome, a blowjob scene, and what may be the single worst scene I've seen all year. This studio always does this and it's completely puzzling why but it's just a scene of Nene licking the dude's head ALL over while he jerks himself off. The camera gets some super close shots too which is just unnecessary. And Nene doesn't even touch his dick at all. Like why??
I hate everything about it. Now the sex scenes at least are decent enough with a solid amount of positions and intensity. The fake creampies though are a bummer but it is what it is. The blowjob scene was quite enjoyable with some nice deepthroat moments. Now I gotta lament the production values as they're very subpar all around. The lighting is nearly the same across the entire video with its overly bright setup although it's a bit more subdued in the last scene. The rooms are also equally dull and drab doing next to nothing to enhance the experience. The camerawork isn't too bad although some shots are less than ideal such as a few behind-the-balls shots for the blowjob scenes. I could do without the guy's ass taking up 75% of the screen. Performance wise Nene is so-so. She takes it pretty well all things considered if nothing else. But all that said, this is a pretty forgettable IR film as much as I love Nene. Some weird scenes and middling production values really hold it back.

DLDSS-313
A Married Woman Runner with a Big Butt, Increases Her Leg and Butt Power with Slow Squats and Cowgirl Position
Starring Yuuko Ono/Aoi
I haven't checked out any of Aoi/Yuko Ono in a LONG time. It's likely been years. I used to be a big fan but I just naturally fell out of interest with her. However, I stumbled upon this new film which immediately grabbed my attention. Here we see Aoi playing a married woman who hires a personal trainer to help her work out at the gym. In typical JAV fashion, he begins making advances on her eventually leading to the pair having sex. I am a massive fan of the gym theme and overall I thought it was fairly well executed. One aspect that left me a bit disappointed was that she remains mostly submissive throughout the entire thing. I can understand that stance at first but at least by the end she should be more loose and enjoying herself, perhaps even taking control. I didn't care for that direction and her resulting performance felt pretty flat. Her enthusiasm wasn't terrible but her facial expressions were a real letdown.
What isn't as disappointing is her appearance thankfully. I'm mainly talking about her wardrobe as she sports some nice booty shorts, sports bras, and a nice thong. All of these showcase her nice ass and fantastic body very well. I forgot just how great her figure is. Her hip-to-waist ratio is incredible. She even gets a bit sweaty at times further enhancing the eyecandy factor. It's not all pleasantries with the production values though as the setting variety is dismal with just one location for the entire film. They vary up the lighting which helps but it's still a bummer. And the action overall is a mixed bag with two sex scenes, a blowjob scene, and a fingering scene. The sex scenes are excellent but they're at the very start and end meaning the middle of the film is a drag with that rather dull fingering scene and a mildly enjoyable blowjob scene. The film isn't perfect but I still enjoyed myself. The eyecandy factor is sublime and the sex scenes are super solid making it worth your time.
Overall Rating - 8.4/10
Comments
This makes me think of Shion Yumi in SSNI-428, she pretty much exposes her chest on the cover of the JAV but when you watch it, she had the school outfit top on the whole time, or mostly on. I only remember being frustrated that she doesn't take it off.
