Introduction

When Okita Anri retired, I was filled with great sadness.  Moreso, in fact, because I only recently developed a great appreciation for her.  For whatever reason, I was always distracted by some other idol, and never spent enough time properly enjoying Anri-chan's talent, despite collecting a decent amount of her films.  Luckily, while she may not be producing new content, she still has a mighty back catalog on offer.  With my personal desire to spend some more quality time with her work, coupled with her retirement, I thought it would be a great opportunity to explore some of her past work.

In selecting a film for this review, I delved into Anri-chan's archive to find something that was not only totally hot, but could be held up as an example of one of her finest performances.  I also wanted to look at something from a bit earlier in her career, that more recent JAV fans might not be familiar with.  Let's take a look at this 2012 entry from S No. 1 STYLE, a story-driven piece that holds some unexpected surprises.




The Actress

Debuting in 2011 Okita Anri is a fairly unique JAV idol to begin with, since she is only half Japanese.  Adding to her allure, she is half English, originally from Birmingham, and spent most of her life in the UK.  Thus, perhaps even rarer among JAV idols, she can speak damn good English.  All of these intangible items are great, but when you add them to her gorgeous face and massive Japanese K-cups, she's a total knockout.  Perhaps, when viewed as a complete package, one of the hottest of all JAV idols.  I could get lost all day in those tits, which are some of the all time best ever.  Her ass is pretty awesome as well, big and shapely, especially as JAV idols go, and strongly underrated in my opinion.

However, in JAV, a great physical package will only get you so far.  What really makes Anri-chan rise to the top are her abilities as a performer.  An art student prior to entering the adult world, she's stated in interviews that she's long been captivated by eroticism, and it shows in her performances.  She has utterly mastered seduction, and when it's called for, dominance.  She is one of the best "aggressive" performers when the role calls for it.  We can debate the sum total of her abilities and compare them to other top idols, but when it comes to acting ability and captivating a viewer, I'm hard-pressed to think of anyone who is at her level.

Rating: 4.0




The Performance

Right off the bat, you'll notice something very different about this performance from Anri-chan: she speaks English.  That's right, this is one of the handful of films where her English ability is on display, which fits in with the international secret agent/assassin theme of the film.  Meanwhile, the English narration of her boss is quite awful in a hilarious way, both in terms of the quality of the English as well as the acting.  But Anri-chan is on point, and makes use of her English a few times throughout the film, including during some sex scenes.  The final scene includes the most use of her English, where she is very aggressive and dominating, in almost dominatrix-like manner.

Beyond the novelty of her English use, Anri-chan completely absorbs herself in the role of secret agent.  In several scenes, she practically (and in some cases literally) launches a sex attack on the male actors.  She launches into the sex scenes with an almost unexpected vigor, right from the beginning.  In the first scene, she licks ass, dick and balls like an ice cream cone.  She also slams her pussy down on the male actor's face and dick with an erotic aggression.  In a nice role reversal, she's the one manhandling the men, and not the other way around.  But if you're not into straight up fem-dom, don't worry.  This is an aggressive performance, but does not cross over into the dominatrix realm.  In fact, she spends a good deal of the film receiving a pounding as much as she spends being the dominant partner.

This is nothing short of a signature performance from Anri-chan.  The director of this film clearly understands her best attributes and how to bring out her dominant side.  You can also expect the signature allure that Anri-chan bring to all of her roles, from her seductive expression to the natural eroticism that she demonstrates in her mannerisms.  All in all, you're not likely to find a much better Anri performance, or JAV performance in general.

Rating: 4.0





Story/Theme/Setting

The secret agent genre is one of the most story-driven in all of JAV, because it goes beyond basic cosplay, and even beyond some basic themed roles such as maid or teacher.  The secret agent becomes both a role for the actress to play as well as a driver of the plot.  Sadly, I am far from fluent in Japanese, though I don't think that matters too much as far as story goes, since I'm sure we're hardly getting an Oscar-winning script.  Like all story-driven porn, the key here is having good setup of sex scenes, as well as making use of the theme to have unique or unusual sex scenes.  I have to give huge credit to the filmmakers for utilizing Anri-chan's English abilities, but their creativity does not end there.  There's a scene where she shags her fellow operative rotten while they are on an apparent stakeout.  There's a scene where she infiltrates an enemy's base, disguised as a prostitute.  Then of course there's the most creative scene, where she has to suck and tug her injured comrades in order to revive them.  This is a great execution of the theme.  Perhaps the only drawback is in the final scene, there is no cumshot before she assassinates her enemy.  For that reason, I have to deduct a little here, because a great final scene is critical to me.  To be fair though, everything else about that final scene is quite entertaining.

Rating: 3.8





Sexual Content

In terms of sexual content, this film delivers pretty well.  Despite having a good amount of story, there is little filler here.  The story serves to enhance the sex, and there is plenty of it.  We begin with a nice shot of Anri-chan in the bathtub as she receives her mission briefing, which then moves on to a stakeout scene where she ravages and gets ravaged by her partner.  This scene is a no-holds-barred sexual romp which amps the action up from 0-60 real quick.  When it escalates suddenly from some standard foreplay into her Anri-chan shoving her tongue into her partner's ass, I knew what kind of film she had in store for us.  Beyond that, the opening sex scene is excellent on all fronts, with Anri-chan dominating for much of it but also taking the submissive role.  Of course, her tits are well used and you also get some nice shots of her wonderful ass.  As I said before, I think her ass is underrated (all too common for JAV girls with big racks).  I personally think her ass has a delightful round shape and excellent size, definitely on the larger side for Japanese girls.

I would be remiss if I didn't comment on the highly creative sequence where Anri-chan fellates and tugs her fallen comrades to revive them.  This is a great example of using the creativity of the theme without sacrificing the core need for sexual content, which is also how I feel about the ending scene, where she disguises herself as a prostitute to assassinate her enemy.  As I mentioned, the drawback to that part is the lack of a proper cumshot.  However, I give credit to the filmmakers.  When it comes to genres like this, there is a temptation to get too creative and sometimes this leads to an unsatisfying amount of penetration and pure sexual content.  However, the more "standard" sex scenes are plentiful and Anri-chan gets pounded enough to offset the more creative parts where there is less sex.  It also helps that all of the scenes, both creative and traditional, feature some of Anri-chan's best work.  I can't quite give it a perfect rating because of the ending, but it's damn close.


Rating: 3.8




Overall

There's not much else to say.  This is hands down, one of Anri-chan's best works.  You owe yourself to have it in your collection.  If you are just getting into her, this would make an essential contribution to an Okita Anri starter set.  Despite a few flaws in the film, she is perfect, and I just loved it.  For anyone looking for a great example of some of her earlier work, you can't go wrong here.

Rating: 3.9 B+(+)
