Harumi Nemoto – Oasis (March 20, 2003)
Line Communications/I-One
Catalog # – LCDV-20052 – All Regions Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 40 Minutes
Note from JMM: I wrote this review sometime in the latter part of 2003. Basically the text is unchanged except that the references to other videos that would be reviewed in the same issue have been deleted. We were in magazine format back then. All of the photo captions were written by Al-The-Editor with his inimitable British sense of style and humor.
Our next Classic DVD comes to us from Japan, and we have one of our favorite Japanese Idols for your pleasure. Harumi Nemoto appears here in lots of scenes on the beach, or in the ocean or the pool. Yes, repeat after me : we love Busty Babes on the Beach.

I ordered the DVD featuring the spectacular Harumi Nemoto, as well as the other two featuring the Japanese models, from an online vendor. Got the e-mail Thursday night in New York that the items had been shipped from Japan on Friday. And they arrived on Monday. What more could you ask — an express mail service that worked. Thank you to the postal gods in two countries. I-One Productions in Japan has entitled this one Oasis, and while I can’t quite figure what the connection is about the title, it really doesn’t matter.

Harumi Nemoto – R#305 Shocking Mermaid (May 9th, 2003)
Kadokawa Video
Catalog # – BBBE-3503 – Region 2 Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 45 Minutes

The Skinny: Another installment of our Classic Reviews. I’ve saved a number of the older reviews of the major stars, and are happy to share them with you. The review text is unchanged (except for some minor updates made for continuity) and for the most part, the images are the originals with the unique captions by Al-The-Editor. Here and there are some new captures straight from the booklet and or the DVD. The review from 2003 follows right below.
Another girl on the A-List of Japanese Big Bust Super Models is Harumi Nemoto. This Region 2 DVD from Kadokawa Video and Happinet Pictures (the distributor) is called Shocking Mermaid and you guessed it — Harumi is the star.
After a very brief opening which I’ve yet to understand (more on this later as it is reprised further on) we meet Harumi in a white knit bikini with multi-colored stripes (described and pictured just for you fashionistas), on a brilliantly white sand beach, romping in the clearest ocean water you can imagine, and beneath the bluest sky ever.
Then, almost as if by magic, without missing a beat to the bouncy music, her bikini becomes white with red and yellow flowers, and these few pieces of material accent her deep, deep cleavage marvelously. This sequence alone justifies the cost of the video.

Here’s the crew in action. Life is hell, out there on a hot beach,the sun blazing down, toting that huge camcorder…

Yoko Matsugane – Dulcet (June 25th, 2002)
Vega Factory
Catalog # – VEDV-27 – All Regions Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 40 Minutes

The Skinny: We are happy to re-publish the review of Yoko Matsugane’s first solo gravure idol DVD called Dulcet. The fact that this DVD was produced in the spring of 2002, and that Yoko is still, seven years later, a major star in the gravure world is a real indicator of how successful her career has been. Please note the the above cover image is from the VHS not the DVD. And please pardon the somewhat slightly grainy look to the images. The tools I had back then were rather rudimentary. The review, originally published in 2003 follows.
Our last video this month concludes our tour of luscious, gorgeous, and busty Japanese models. We’ve saved the biggest breasts, and the newest and most popular model for last.

If you thought Anna Ohura was big, think again. Yoko Matsugane surpasses Anna for size, shapeliness, and overall beauty. This girl is just sensational. More

Yoko Matsugane – Enrapture (October 10, 2002)
Vega Factory
Catalog # VEVD-33 – All Regions Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 50 Minutes

The Skinny: This is the next of our Classic Reviews. Yoko made this video in the summer of 2002. That’s seven years ago. The review (which follows immediately) was originally published in early 2003. Photo captions and indented commentary made by Al-The-Editor.
Next let’s once again drool over the gorgeous and busty Yoko Matsugane starring in Enrapture from the Vega Factory. Like so many of these Japanese productions, the producers will fly the model off to some exotic location. I am all for it. Beach, waterfalls, tropical palms and the like, all add to the exotic allure. Unlike last month’s Yoko DVD which opened in a bathroom, here we find her romping on the beach, and it just happens to be on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii. The romp on the beach is just the beginning of a lengthy montage that will showcase Yoko and her marvelous pair.

Typical Japanese idol video – Yoko has as much fun as possible without taking her bra off

Yoko Matsugane – Violation (December 18, 2002)
Pony Canyon
Catalog # PCBP-50651 – All Regions Disc – 4:3 Aspect
Running Time: 50 Minutes

The Skinny: This is early Yoko circa December 18, 2002 and it is the 1st of a new Category called Classic Reviews or maybe we could call it Retro Reviews. This was just Yoko Matsugane’s 4th DVD. It followed Dulcet, Spiritual, and Enrapture. Who could have envisioned 6 1/2 years ago, that Yoko would still be stopping men dead in their tracks in 2009 as well as still being the reigning Gravure Queen. That’s a question with no answer, right? Lest we lose any more time debating that imponderable – let’s look at the review that I wrote way back in 2003. BTW, many of the images were captioned by Al-The-Editor. In fact all of the captions were written by Al, who passed away in June of 2006.
