Mai Nishida – Mai Sweetie (August 20th, 2010)
Line Communications / I-One
Catalog # – LCDV-40431 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 118 minutes
The Skinny: Another great video from Mai Nishida whose popularity grows every day. And why not? She’s got a killer body, a sweet smile, she’s adorable, she’s cute, and she’s also ever so sexy. The camera simply loves her. So do I.

The montage is excellent and the 1st of the main chapter less so. A person enters the room and Mai is under the sheets. After some peekaboo under the sheets, she ultimately emerges in a white bikini.
The scene is designed for playfulness taking advantage of Mai’s sexy desirability. I’m not sure jumping up and down on your hotel bed is a good thing. What the people on the floor below think.

Asana Mamoru – Tabi no Hajimari (August 31st, 2010)
E-Net Frontier
Catalog # – ENFD-5241 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Squeezed Aspect
Running Time: 86 Minutes + 7 minutes Making Of = 93
The Skinny: Back in November, 2009, I was excited then roundly disappointed by Asana Mamoru’s Getsukan DVD reviewed here. She was a great looking model, but the DVD was simply awful. Then about five weeks ago, I got the news that she was releasing a new DVD on August 31st which is today. A little after 10:00 today, I had the DVD in my hands. So let’s have a look at Asana’s brand new video from A to Z.

I’m going to try to keep this in the A to Z order but on occasion, we will jump out of order. For continuity’s sake and just because a thought occurred to me. Anyway, this is only a review not a grad school text book on quantum physics, so order is nice but not required. On that note will begin with a C – for Cover Image. Most of the sites have only published the front half with the large single image, but I’ll go for the whole nine yards – both the front and back covers (above).

Ayami Sawada – Second Impact (July 25th, 2010)
Takeshobo
Catalog # – TSDV-41289 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 73 minutes
The Skinny – An excellent beginning to a very good performance by Ayami Sawada in Second Impact. You’ve heard of the rollings hills? This video should have been entitled Rolling Hips. Why? Simple – the view of Sawada-san’s hips in motion is magnificent. It is like a visual presentation of beautiful music or lovely poetry.

Ms Sawada spends many minutes, make that most of Chapter One showing us her backfield in motion. Since this chapter is set on the beach, she can safely crawl or walk away from us for a delightfully enhanced view of this action in a wonderful swim suit which clings to her curves.

Yuri Kobayashi – Mosaic Nude (September 1st, 2010)
Muteki
Catalog # – TEK-027 – All Regions Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Runing Time: 80 Minutes
The Skinny: When I first read the news that Yuri Kobayashi would do an all nude video for Muteki - it was like, “Oh – that’s interesting.” I’d reviewed a number of Yuri’s gravure videos. My overall feelings about her look and style as a gravure idol were favorable. On the other hand – making the quantum leap from the gentler and more conventional gravure over to nudity with Muteki leads one to believe that the next level (AV) isn’t that far off or an impossible dream. But rather than ponder Yuri’s future plans let’s just do a review of this DVD.

The old (top) and the new (bottom)
Straightaway we begin with a montage only its not what you expected. Instead of it being a mini-preview of what will follow in the video, it is a look back (via still photo images) of when Yuri was a notable gravure idol and this is cross cut with some looks at Yuri in the present, in fact, this will serve to introduce her in this Video. This footage does bring to mind a younger and decidedly more innocent looking Yuri Kobayashi,. The cross cutting of the old and the current was thematically new and interesting if not visually creative .

A short 4 minute interview follows. You’ll immediately notice how animated and lively Yuri is. The questions appear in Japanese text on the right side of the screen. What’s makes this special is that Yuri seems so very sincere and very likeable. You’ll also notice how even this interview was done stylishly with varied angles.

Ruri Saijou – AV Impossible (July 18th, 2010)
Catalog # MMND-055 – Region 2 – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 1:58:26
The Skinny; Ruri Saijou, famous or maybe infamous for her 111 M Cup figure, inspired a lot of comments last time I did a review of her work. This one is called AV-Impossible. Maybe they should call it AV Mission Impossible. It’s not much of a video despite its nearly 2 hours in running. Yes, Ruri Saijou is quite busty, enhanced or otherwise. But as far as the video goes, that’s it for the compliments.

To begin with, I haven’t been able to figure the name of the producer. There were no credits at the end of the video. I did track down their website (http://www.miman.jp/) where they have a some images in lieu of a preview for this video. When you click on the Topic called Contents you will see that they’ve made about a dozen or more videos, similar to this one, some of which you will recognize from the covers.
As I said there were no credits, and no montage either. What’s more – there are no music tracks at all. Aside from the camera and video editing stuff, this was basically a cost-free production Made on the cheap as they say.And I’m thinking that the producer is also the director. The director seemingly operates the camera, and quite likely he is also the owner of the hands that touch, fondle, caress, and tease Ruri. It is also most likely his tongue that is in play too. I might be wrong about that, but it just looks that way from the angles.

Chrissie Chau – Les Vacances d’Amour (July 23rd, 2010)
Panorama
Catalog # – PANDVD-521134 – All Regions Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 62 Minutes Total (41 minutes main Chapters, 21 minutes Behind the Scenes)

The Skinny: Hong Kong’s super-model Chrissie Chau lights up the screen as she and a crew from Hong Kong do a tour of France. From Nice to Marseilles, and then on to Paris. Chrissie attracted passer-bys wherever the production took them. She’s a high-spirited woman as well as a high-energy model.

The production is partially in 3D with four scenes in that mode, as well as the standard 2D. And there is a Blu-ray version as well as a standard definition DVD. All in all, both the DVD and Chrissie Chau are quite a package.


Early on I wasn’t quite sure of where we were. I knew it was France, but where? Once I saw mountains and the sea, I knew that it was in the south of France. More
