Diana Okuai – Eight (January 31, 2009)
Layfull
Catalog # = Eight 118D – Region 2 Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 100 Minutes
The Skinny: This was a hotly anticipated title starring a model who creates a polarity of opinion – most either love her or hate her – from a studio whose technique or formula can be simplified as follows: the model should be nearly nude, nearly having solo sex, with the tease factor amped up as high as possible. If a video makes you squirm in your chair as you watch it, then it very well might be a Layfull Eight video.
Diana Okuai is a big woman but under no circumstances shall we allow the word hefty to come into play. Simply put, she’s big-boned, big-busted, and big hipped. She has a very strong liking of showing off her body. And most likely she has a big appetite for sex, if these scenes are any indication.
Suffice to say that we don’t need a walk-through this video in a scene-by-scene as each of the eight chapters are alike. Sure there are different settings, different costumes, and different appliances, liquids, and props to create the appearance of a difference, but pay them no mind.
Diana is going to get right in your face and say in action if not in actual words that she’s here to please us, her viewers, and more importantly, she’s here to please herself (mostly) as well as her producers.
They don’t have to prod or push her to strip down. There’s no coaxing needed to allow a person or persons to use her body as a canvas for some performing arts. And most of all, there’s no ingenue in sight. In fact it seems as though Okuai is most comfortable when wearing nothing but sand, sweat, or some sort of liquid in lieu of clothing.
As for the technical aspects of the video, all are excellent. Vibrant colors, excellent and varied angles, good sound and lighting, superb exposures, and professional editing. In fact, from a technical aspect, there’s not anything I can find to criticize.
Summary: So it all comes down to whether you like the Eight formula or not. Keep in mind that Layfull is very good at what they do. But Layfull always has the model posing naked but never will you see anything close to full frontal nudity. Layfull always has full fledged fondling of the model but always through or under her clothing or with some sort of mechanical object, and never with any genital penetration.
There’s always something very oral included but this is restricted to mannequins, fruits, peperonis, or vegetables.
Finally, there’s always something that is oozing, dripping, or gushing but the model is always the one receiving these liquid tributes rather than the one delivering them.
Me? I’m not a big fan of Diana Okuai or the Eight style but I am able to review a DVD objectively. Therefore, I will score this video at four point zero with a provisional warning that I think there will be two camps for this video, just as we have two camps about Diana Okuai herself.
Some of you will love this video, and others will hate it.

Nice to see an honest opinion in that you don’t flatter every model.
From your screencaps, her breasts don’t lie anywhere near flat when she lies down, but when is standing up they look completely natural; with stretch marks and sagging. Strange.
Hey Zak – thanks for the comments.
There are no studios sending me discs in exchange for positive reviews. And even when I did receive videos from some non-Japanese studios like Score and Juggmaster, the deal was I would not be beholding to any studio. Any reviews I wrote would be objective. I did promise not too trash any videos sent to me by a production outfit but if the video was in truth horrid, I wouldn’t review it.
Score ultimately stopped sending me discs as they said I wasn’t positive enough. This was probably 7 years ago. In short, I’m not for sale.
Okuai seems to have a polarizing effect. There’s not much middle ground with her. As I said, this was a well made DVD, and if I am not sold on her, that doesn’t mean that others won’t think she’s great. Hence a positive review.

jmm -
an excellently written review … and one that I agree with in every aspect.
Thanks for giving your readers an accurate and fair evaluation of this DVD. Ordinarily, I am not a fan of the “Eight” Series or its style, this one being an exception, but this one is probably the exception to the rule for me because of the featured Idol.
Although I would by no stretch of the imagination call Diana Okuai “pretty”, there is something that I find very intriguing about her. Perhaps it’s her apparent confidence in herself, perhaps it’s her sexuality. Or maybe I just like “big girls”.
Hey Mike -
Thanks for your help on this one. As they say, I couldn’t have done it without you.
Yup, it is apparent that her bigness, her confidence, and her sexuality are turn-ons. I like those things about her as well. But….
Coming up on my review schedule are:
Miho Ishii, Hana Haruna, and Minami Matsuzaka who have new releases – and if Diana Okuai was about to release a new video on or about the same time, and if I had to budget myself to only three of the four, I’d buy those other three models and skip Diana.
But that’s just me. Thanks for your comments.

She looks horrible with that huge jawline of hers…
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Surely that can’t be all you thought of after reading the review or watching the video?
Any positive comments at all?
