Nonami Takizawa – Yura-Yura – Nonami in Japan (December 15, 2008)
Line Communications/I-One
Catalog # 40350 – Region 2 Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 73 Minutes

The Skinny: This is the 2nd, or companion DVD of Line Communication’s I-One double release starring Nonami Takizawa. The first was called Kura-Kura, and this one is entitled Yura-Yura (Nonami in Japan). Right now, in my opinion, Nonami is the reigning Goddess of Gravure. She is the Numero Uno, the Ichiban, the Number One, the top of the heap, or anything else you want to use for a label as long as it conveys the same thought. While Kura-Kura was shot in Hawaii, Yura-Yura is in Japan; so let’s have a look.

Mikie Hara – Koi no Tobira (December 22nd, 2008)
E-Net Frontier
Catalog # – ENFD-5107 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 87 minutes

The Skinny: We’ll we meet our star at the airport. We hang out until the scheduled departure time arrives and we are called to board the plane.  That’s Mikie flashing her best Boarding Pass Smile below.

We sit right next to her on the plane and best of all we even enter the hotel room in Saipan with her. Of course by now you’ve more than figured out that  someone else was holding the camera, and you are only watching the DVD made from his and Mikie’s efforts much later. So it is okay to be disappointed as reality finds you viewing a video in the comfort of your own home or apartment. But make no mistake – watching Mikie Hara has to be all good.

Anri Sugihara – An Sweet (December 22nd, 2008)
E-Net Frontier
Catalog # – ENFD-5111 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Format
Running Time: 79 Minutes

The Skinny: This is a model who doesn’t get a lot of discussion. She’s not on anyone’s front burner anywhere. But she should be as she’s plenty hot. This is her 8th DVD since mid 2006. Which tells me that someone is paying attention to her. And that would be some consumers and fans who have helped make Anri’s videos hit some impressively high sales figures. How else does a model get rehired? Of course there’s another way – have huge boobs. Welcome Anri.

Hitomi Kitamura – Kagayaku (Sparkling) Hitomi (November 21st, 2008)
presented by For-side.com and co-produced by Torico
Catalog # – FOEN-47 – Region 2 Disc – 16:9 Aspect
Running Time: 71 minutes

The Skinny: While this DVD has Hitomi Kitamura who is a wonderful model, and a visual treat all by herself, something is lacking in this video. And I might just call it ’spirit’or maybe we can call it energy. I mean that for most of this DVD, Hitomi-chan doesn’t look like she’s having fun. While she’s really not sleepwalking through the scenes, calling the video ’sparkling’ doesn’t make it so.

Nonami Takizawa – Kura-Kura – Nonami in Hawaii (December 15th, 2008)
Line Communications/I-One Series
Catalog # LCDV-40349 – Region 2 Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 60 Minutes

The Skinny: This is the first of a Nonami Takizawa double release from Line Communications/I-One Series. This one, Kura-Kura is subtitled Nonami in Hawaii, and it is a gem.

After one of the best montages I’ve ever seen in a gravure video, the video launches with Nonami scampering about on a beach.This Chapter is called Sunshine Beach. She runs, spins, twirls, then gets dizzy and falls down. She’s pure energy or maybe it is adrenaline. Okay – maybe it was MY adrenaline.
