Beaming - Manami Hashimoto
Recently a young model named Hashimoto Manami came to my attention. Last spring, the head honchos over at E-Frontier Net flew her and one of their crack crews down to Bali for the purpose of coming home with enough footage to produce the video which came to be called Beaming. And today, I’ll share my review with you.
The title is really apt for this video. The model, Ms. Hashimoto, is seen throughout the video, often with a grand smile ‘beaming’ from her countenance. I’d be beaming too if I had the opportunity to run into a model like this on the beach at Seminyak, Bali.
But it never happened for me. Despite staying at three different resort areas in Bali - Legian, Nusa Dua, and Tanjung Benoa, I didn’t spot even one Japanese camera crew much less a gravure model. My loss.
However you are in luck. Without having to travel halfway around the world, you may still enjoy the splendors of Bali as well as the bounty of Manami Hashimoto in this DVD. But first a few disclaimers - she’s not going to make your jaw drop due to having an outandishly huge bust - in fact, we won’t even have to use terms like busty or bosomy at all. Second - she’s got a sweet face, and she’s perky, and she’s going to make a few more DVDs; but she isn’t off-the-charts gorgeous. We can log her in at the level of basically beautiful. And the last disclaimer is that the director of the DVD felt it necessary to use soft and fuzzy focus far too often among other gaffes.
We first meet Manami as she strolls along the beach. There’s more than one beach scene in this DVD. In fact we see Manami discovering sea life in the shallow pools. We watch her as she discovers the wonders of coral. In fact, most of the DVD has water in the scenery - pools, ocean, and even a lagoon. The one water based scene that we don’t see is the old standby - the shower or bath scene.
Eventually we are face-to-face-to face as Manami does the interview scene. We see the split screen live dual image while she talks to her producer. The questions appear on the bottom of the screen in Japanese script and are therefore lost to me.
Soon we are done with the interview and there’s a series of water-based scenes. Each has its own gifts; the main one being Ms Hashimoto. But there’s nothing truly extraordinary on screen here. Workmanlike at best with the downside being the occasional soft focus or shimmering light reflecting off the water via the late afternoon sunlight’s lowered angle.
