As one who wishes for Hitomi Honda's revival in Dan Oniroku's works. After five months since her retirement, I purchased this expecting it to be Hitomi Honda's final SM work. In this film, Yū Kawakami, who herself was active as a lesbian masochist, takes on the role of the partner, and the lesbian masochist training play was very compelling. Honda brilliantly transformed Yū's gloomy and persistent long-duration torment into a reward, and her writhing in pleasure left a strong impression. Particularly memorable was the scene where, after being whipped, she was made to climax by Yū solely through nipple biting and stimulation, without any caressing of her genitals. I admired the exquisite interplay and acting skills. If I had to nitpick, I wish Yū's scenes had been left to her own discretion, focusing entirely on directing the performance to please Honda. The appearance of men should have been kept to the bare minimum necessary to follow Yū's instructions.
The cherry blossom snowstorm painted on the white canvas of Honda's naked body using rope, whip, and candle wax was truly artistic, a beauty that will be etched in memory forever. Naomi Tani of the Showa era, Yū Kawakami of the Heisei era, and Hitomi Honda of the Reiwa era—what these three share is the desire to see them thoroughly tormented by a lesbian sadistic queen in the works of Dan Oniroku. If Honda ever makes a comeback, I strongly hope such a work can be realized.
To Hitomi-chan, the Masochist Hitomi Honda, thank you for all your hard work in your SM productions. Half a year has passed since your retirement announcement at the end of last year, and now your final work is finally being released. When you debuted, you played the role of a naive wife, but now you have grown into a splendid major actress. As a fan, I am truly grateful. I hear this latest work includes full-fledged SM play such as bondage, lesbianism, spanking, and candle wax. I will definitely watch your retirement film.
Let Memories Be Memories The legendary works left behind by Hitomi Honda are undoubtedly among the pinnacles of the SM genre, and it's possible that no SM or lesbian SM works surpassing them will ever be created again. She is truly a brilliantly shining great actress. Her greatness is so immense that it's unavoidable to compare her current works with those from her prime. The current works are by no means bad, but because her past works are so historic and legendary, they inevitably end up with a more modest evaluation when compared.
