Timing and Translation by ZENRA

(Second Half online January 31st)

We're going to address a tiny elephant in the room before moving on to the review for the iteration in this really good people monitoring series by PETERS. This is the fourth in the series, we have already shown the first two, and we plan to show the rest because they rock. The third, unfortunately, was pulled for various reasons though in the future we will see about licensing the available scenes from it because the theme is too good to pass up on. With that said, to the review!

If the cards are right and the situation weird enough, can two real life coworkers (in two scenes) or friends (in the other two) really go from a purely platonic relationship to having sex then and there? WHILE knowingly being filmed? And why not, not even in a comfy hotel room somewhere, but literally in an old van seemingly parked in one of those large lots you sometimes see in Japanese suburbs used by supermarkets? It's a most titillating situation and PETERS shows fancy sets, big names (well, there may be an exception with today's update), and even big budgets don't matter if the theme is good enough and the pacing on point.

PEOPLE MONITORING - INVESTIGATING IF REAL FRIENDS AND COWORKERS WILL HAVE SEX TOGETHER 4 follows in the familiar footsteps of the eight approximately hour long scenes we've already shown. Here, another four consisting of four pairs who go from 'just friends'/'just coworkers' to suddenly sex friends and sexy coworkers due to an escalating game that comes off more of a 'dare-only' version of truth-or-dare led by an energetic off-camera host.

Each scene follows pretty much the same format: a 'fake' interview where we hear some about the pair followed by the real purpose: an 'investigation' to see if friends and coworkers would like to 'peek over the wall' that normally exists to keep relationships proper. From being dared to hug, to kiss, to feel each other's private areas (above clothes, but later...), and of course concluding with a dare to have sex, it's a fun journey from start to finish. Like the previous updates, each scene takes its time and in some cases there may close to 30 minutes before the 'fun stuff' starts, but skipping ahead is NOT recommended. Seeing just how slowly but surely that metaphorical wall does indeed break down is almost as good as the sex that follows and thus this makes for one of those JAV movies that truly needs either full native level comprehension or a pro-level subtitling job to fully appreciate.

This movie in its first scene features a 1.0 version of AI MUKAI. While the theme is amateurs, that it's so obvious it's her, we're noting it here. It's crazy how much she's grown and remains such a powerhouse even today. Some may prefer super short hair version of AI and for those that do, check this one out (though as of preparing this update for publication, it seems she is back to short hair again!). Otherwise, the three other scenes are equally as good. In fact, the final scene with a pair of college friends not only feels the most authentic, the flow to sex is slightly different for a very good reason.
