Viewing Notes

Had to get this DVD back to Netflix so kinda forced watched. Wasn’t in the mood for roman porno but ah well. Considered a Kumashiro classic example of the genre but It was just okay for me. It’s as if nothing really happens… a couple boards up and has sex when they are together. I get context but whatever. Junko Miyashita is pretty great.
