The Skinny: For sure, we won’t be seeing ‘skinny’ again in this review. The word just has no bearing on Minami Narusawa’s figure. She’s doing a gravure video in a familiar Bali resort, and despite the bright sunny day and the tropical setting, Minami walks out onto the sun-drenched patio in a Japanese school girl outfit – complete down to the navy socks, penny loafers, a plaid skirt, and a sleeveless navy sweater over a white shirt. I’m not sure why so many of the gravure idols start their videos this way – maybe it is just the director’s sense of giving them something to feel at home in.
Ms Narusawa was somewhat nervous and so she stumbled verbally a few times through her opening remarks. She introduced herself and welcomed us to amazing (sugoi) Bali. She hoped we’d enjoy her DVD, and to help us along in that direction, she offered up her measurements.

Soon enough, Minami will take a red recorder out of her school bag, and go up the musical scale for us. Obviously, she hasn’t any talent with this instrument beyond the musical do re mi, so it’s time to take off her school uniform. Now the jiggle-fest, which was so wonderfully previewed in the montage, begins in earnest.
The second of the main chapters has Minami in a bright yellow bikini in the pool. She has a multi-colored beach ball as a prop. What we see is that Narusawa-san will take every available opportunity to either touch her breasts, make them jiggle by pulling the straps to her bikini top, or press them against something to emphasize their enormous size. This scene did suffer (to a degree) of a being overly bright to the extent that the background is whited-out in some of the angles.
Three begins on the patio before moving inside. Minami wears a white mono-kini. Before long she’s found a glass table to press her boobs against (with the camera beneath – of course). And to make things seem even more like what we’ve already seen, she will use her index finger to poke herself (you know where) again. A bottle of water is introduced as a change of pace.
Four is more of the same. Minami enters wearing a top over he bikini which as we soon see is a striped affair. This time it’s not water that is used for the tit play. Instead it is a body lotion. Minami makes a concerted effort to get the lotion in those hard to reach places between her boobs. Of course there is more jiggling to do via tugging on the bikini top straps.
Five begins with Minami in a top and shorts with a bikini beneath. This chapter has a few different segments such as hide-the-fruit in your cleavage and get tied up in with a tri-colored ribbon. All of which included more jiggle and wobble. Along with dangle. Let’s not forget the ever popular tit-poke.The only thing missing was the giggle. But we would need the Okada girls for that.
The sixth stanza opens with Minami in farmer’s overalls made into shorts. Minami will lower the straps and then open the shirt to reveal a bright red bikini top and an infinite amount of cleavage. This of course will lead to more strap tugging and in the natural way that these things work – more jiggling follows. And did I mention that the shirt and shorts do come off. Which leads to a workout in a red bikini with a beach ball and then a spot of some jump-rope action. First the jump rope is utilized in its standard intended role as Minami actually jumps and skips as the rope circles. But that requires more energy than using the rope to make her boobs jiggle, so the jumping element is quickly abandoned.
In Seven we are back at poolside. Minami wears an orange bikini with white polka-dots. A different kind of body cream is applied and rubbed in. For a while the director worked to get some effective between the legs shots of Minami as she reclined on the wood floor. But eventually he returned to his more standard activities of having Minami poke her boobs with her index finger or make them jiggle with that by now old favorite and tried and true method – strap tugging.
In Eight, Minami is till on a wooden floor. Only this time we are indoors. This scene begins with the dreaded lollipop which like a heat seeking missle homes in right toward’s Minami’s mouth. When that’s done, Minami sits on a bed where she is bedeviled by the plastic yellow finger-pointing-hand on the end of a stick. When the finger pointing at her indicates that she should remove her top, she gladly complies revealing a cartoonishly colored bikini. This bikini will match the dozen or so balloons of varied colors already on the bed. The scene concludes with Minami trying to avoid the balloons which come hurtling at her as if we are playing dodge ball aka dodge the balloon. Unable to resist his impulsive nature, the director reverts back to his beloved methodology of having Minami first poke her own boobs, then perform, yet again, the strap-jiggling maneuver.
Ten Minutes remain. Here’s Minami out by the pool again. She’s wearing a see-through sun dress over her bra and panties. For awhile she poses under a tree treating us to additional finger pokes to her massive and resilient boobs. Then she climbs into a small jacuzzi still wearing the see-through.
The jets aren’t turned on so the scene is relatively tame. But while you blinked, the scene has transported to one of those out door showers that Bali is famous for. Minami has a bottle of some white lotion which she pours over body.
The director closes with more strap tugging and boob jiggling. Ho hum.
Summary: Outstanding boobs of a huge size. These will get Minami lot’s more gravure contracts. This DVD was a case of a huge-boobed model who is not the least bit camera shy, whose work was somewhat dulled by the repetive and ultimately unimaginative direction. The camera work was pretty decent, as were the variation of angles and settings.
In all of the chapters, Minami began with a top or a shirt, or a sundress before stripping down to a bikini top and bottom. The DVD made all of the familiar stops – beach balls, jump ropes, lollipops, edible fruits, plastic pointing fingers, oils, lotions, and soaps. We saw swimming pools, patios, and outdoor showers.
But what we saw far too much of was the finger poking and the bikini strap tugging. There’s nothing wrong with huge jiggling boobs – only the poke and the tug should have been replaced by more of the swing and sway. But we aren’t going to hold all of that against the model. She was better than a four point zero but the director wasn’t – so that’s where the rating stays. Four point zero.

















I think I’d be less surprised if you ever decide to give a 5.5 or 5.25 rating than this 4.0… I was expecting around 3.25, not because I thought it was bad, but I was thinking it wouldn’t be your “cup of tea”, Mike.
My guess is that they want to contrast the “she’s so sweet and innocent” with the “but yet so slutty” thing, using the school uniform opening, and even the recorder thing, I’ve seen Minami-chan playing the guitar and it seems she has some music aptitudes, so I’m guessing she was faking not being able to play to increase on the “clueless” vibe. But if they wanted to do a contrast, it was defeated by having her doing the things with her breasts over and over in each scene, imo. More oldstyle “girl doing nothing while camera goes around her” would have helped, but it seems that lately, idols have to push the envelope or be left behind.
We’ll see what’s next for Minami, she could be her generation’s Miri Hanai, although it seems her management (or lack of) will keep her doing these kind of work and be borderlining with the chaku-ero and possibly, even beyond.
Btw, it is pretty cool that the textbox font is the same as the one used in the site. Thanks, JMM.
When I figure out what my cup of tea is I’ll let you know. Right now it is a reaction. I gave the 4.0 because I didn’t want to penalize the model for the director’s lack of creativity. For sure Minami-chan knows she’s busty and that this is a big turn on on for her fans. So I can’t see her doing ‘innocent’.
I think that school outfit is what the Japanese men want to see – that eternal quest for youth. But it is only the one scene and the opening scene at that. And in most of the other DVDs that have used this costume, it is almost always the opener.
I am in agreement that Minami is more than likely to push the envelope and beyond. I don’t see her as a Miri Hanai at all. I think Minami Narusawa’s competition will come from Ai Shinozaki who has a double release coming out . And then tenor of those videos will determine what’s next for her.
This was a Nu Image DVD – let’s see who gets Narusawa next. I would like to see her do a feature for Takeshobo and I-One next. Then E-Net Frontier.
After that we will have a better idea of where and what will follow. Thanks for your comments.

Maybe the next Anri Sugihara ? Her enormous implants disqualify her from being mentioned in the same breath as Miri Hanai, or Ai Shinozaki.
Is she known to be augmented for certain?
I saw this and one of Minami’s other videos and was somewhat bored by them. It’s true–she has a great figure and nice face, but for some reason, I didn’t feel a whole lot of sexiness or sensuality coming through. Maybe that’s inexperience, maybe poor direction. I agree with Mike–the poking and prodding and self-jiggling isn’t as sexy as when it happens naturally. Maybe if she hooks up with I-One her DVDs will get a bit more “mature”.
Thanks for the comment Malau. I’ve never been one to take a side on the natural vs implants ‘debates’. In the world of gravure models It doesn’t much matter to me.

Hi Argyle – thanks for the comments. You know that it was you who suggested to me about this model. I agree – we both think she needs more experience – both personal and professional, as well as a better camera crew read director.
As for her ‘interior design’ I have no knowledge. Malau has suggested that she has implants. Maybe Xater can offer some more insight.

Minami’s first DVD is titled “First Impact“, and from the start, there were jokes calling it “First Implant”, but so far, nothing has been proved, no one has provided before & after pics or zoom-ins spotting scars… she would be more like Ourei Harada -who was supposed to be 17 at her debut- than Anri or even Minami Matsuzaka, so far we only have Malau’s radar to tell, and in his comment he seems to concede that Ai Shinozaki is genuine even though he has called her fake before, so, who knows…
I guess that looks-wise, Ai and Minami are in competence, but I’d say Rui Kiriyama is closer to Ai than Minami, at least in the type of work they do, which is why I compared Narusawa to Miri, in their willingness to push the envelope more than their peers, although, to be fair, these days being raunchy is the norm rather than the exception. Minami already did her Pure Smile for Takeshobo, so I guess it would take some time for her to work for them again, maybe next year if she stays in the business, her next release would probably come out in October.
