Even if you can't understand Japanese, the plot of this one is easy to follow. We open with a sultry dark-haired bitch, who has just killed her male lover, presumably because she found out he was having an affair with another girl.

After the killing, she goes through the guy's wallet and discovers pictures of him with the other girl, played by the very cute and innocent Megu Hoshino. After contemplating what she just did, the sultry bitch is greeted by the sound of the doorbell. To her shock, she instantly recognizes it is Megu, wearing a schoolgirl uniform and long knee socks, at the door paying a visit. The innocent Megu, who clearly doesn't know her lover was also involved with the sultry bitch, even shows her pictures of Megu and her lover together. Rather than get upset, the sultry bitch plays it cool and invites Megu in to share some coffee on the couch. Unbeknownst to Megu, Sultry Bitch mixes in some powder into Megu's drink to knock her out. Once Megu is unconscious, Sultry Bitch loads her up in the back seat of her car and drives her to the lair of two trusted male henchmen, who will presumably take care of the problem.

The next scene, we are introduced to the henchmen. The one is a burly, quiet type. The other one, clearly the man in charge, has a scruffy 3-day beard and is wearing dark sunglasses. Hey, that sounds like...Yes, it IS! It's Mr. Cool Shades himself, the legendary Randa Mai as the lead villain. Oh yeah, they'll be taking care of the problem, all right!

When we see Megu next, she's still unconscious and fully dressed, but that won't be lasting long. Randa and the other henchman tie her hands behind her and fasten a rope around her waist, tie that to the ceiling and leave her in a standing position in the middle of the floor. Randa takes a whip and proceeds to smack Mega several times on the ass, but she still doesn't wake up. Undaunted, he switches to a bamboo cane, which hurts more, and that does the trick! Gotta make sure she's fully awake to enjoy the brutal treatment that will follow.

Taking his time in prolonging Megu's torment, Randa hikes up her skirt and runs a crotchrope between her legs and over top of her white panties. With her shapely legs and underwear exposed, the other henchman holds her still while Randa delivers several sharp blows of the whip onto Megu's legs until the terrified girl begins to cry. Then he whips her even more, admiring several dark whipmarks he has produced across her upper thighs.

Randa then ties ropes to her ankles and with one big thrust, she's hoisted off the ground and into an upside down position, hanging from the ceiling. With her in that vulnerable position, Randa shows her a photo of Megu with her lover together. It's obvious what he's telling her. She shouldn't have been with this man, and this is why she's being punished. Simple as that. She's going to pay.

Megu endures some suspended whipping, then she's brought back down to her feet for more harsh treatment with the bamboo cane. He then gives her a wedgie by pulling on her crotch rope and lifting her off the ground with it. This is followed by a harsh face slapping, which produces some more lovely tears from the sobbing girl.

Up until this time, Randa has been rough with her but has also been careful not to strip this innocent girl too quickly, so when he suddenly pulls up her skirt and yanks down her panties, it comes as a shock to her and she cries out in humiliation. Running his hands along her pussy, he decides that she has too much pussy hair and that he needs to get rid of it...with his lighter! As the panicked girl looks on in horror, he uses the open flame to singe away some of the hairs, then uses a scissors to give her a trim. Then he lights up a cigarette and uses the glowing tip to burn away more of her fuzz down there. That was fun, but still not as thorough as he wants. So he comes up with another plan.

Megu is tied on her knees as the other henchman approaches and pulls down his pants in front of her. She knows what he wants, but doesn't want to do it. But with after being threatened with the bamboo cane and having her nostrils closed off, she reluctantly opens her mouth and starts sucking him off.

I'm not a big fan of Japanese oral sex scenes, since they tend to go on too long and the action is pixelated anyway, but this one doesn't produce boredom, since they are collecting the spit and cum from Megu's mouth into a glass bowl as she completes the blow job. Leaving her face still dripping, she is then forced to lay on her back on the floor. Randa produces a razor and then shows Megu what he plans to do. He then proceeds to shave her pussy by using the mixture of spit and cum as a lubricant. That's ingenuity!

He takes his time, and Megu's sobbing doesn't dissuade him in the least. He even uses the lighter again to try to burn off some of the stubborn extra hair between her legs. He doesn't stop until the last bit of pussy fur is shaved from her sensitive region.

Then he helps himself to a vigorous finger fucking of her newly shorn pussy and follows that up by inserting a vibrating dildo device. I usually find those scenes boring, too, especially since the Japanese tend to overdo the forced orgasm stuff to the point where I usually have to hit the fast-forward button. But this one lasts just long enough, and besides, Randa doesn't want to spend too much time giving her pleasure, not where there's more pain to inflict.

The mean son of a bitch spreads her legs wide, and, lighting a big red candle, proceeds to drip hot wax directly onto her tender pussy, which had to be already sore and hurting after the shaving. As she wails her head off, Randa literally covers up her pussy lips with the burning wax, so that her pussy is totally coated with red wax by the time he's done. A truly sadistic scene. I loved it.

The following scene has Megu tied in a standing position. Randa calmly binds her as the henchman holds the bamboo cane in front of her to let her know they mean business. Once she's properly tied, Randa opens up her top, pulls down her bra and as she starts crying again, we finally get our first look at her cute little titties. They squeeze and fondle her lovely breasts and pull on her nipples, then it's time for action. She's rudely hoisted off the ground and hung horizontally from the ceiling. As she spins around, Randa gives her another brutal lashing with the whip.

Randa brings her down to her feet, but her suffering isn't about to end anytime soon. He takes his finger and then violently buggers her up the ass, then comes around and makes her sniff the finger that just violated her. He follows that up with more hot candle wax onto her already sore and reddened ass, and then he goes after her tits, dripping wax on them as well. A few face slaps convince her to open up her mouth, and he pours the scalding wax onto her tongue and liberally across her nose, chin and cheek, too. Then more harsh whipping is followed by more hot wax, this time across her back. I'll tell you, that bitch knows how to scream! Randa leaves the poor girl to hang limply in her bonds.

After that torturous treatment, you would think things couldn't get any worse for Megu. But you'd be wrong. Because her final torture will be the harshest of all.

Out of her bonds at last, Megu is dragged by her hair onto the floor of the room. Randa forces his shoe down into her face, then violently grabs her by the hair and thrashes her around, slapping her face and angrily shouting at the crying girl. This time he means business. None of the previous gentle pulling down of her clothing like we saw earlier. This time he roughly cuts away her bra with a scissors and yanks off her skirt, even using the skirt to whip the girl several times while she's held down. He's pissed and wants her naked, and he wants her naked NOW! He squeezes her boob and slaps her several times across the tits and face until she's sobbing very loudly. Then he gets to work on tying her up. Very, very tightly.

It takes a while to bind her, because he's very thorough. Bondage films sometimes edit out the actual tying, but in this case, that would have been a huge mistake. It's a real pleasure seeing Megu whimper and wince in pain after each knot is cinched, and there are a lot of them. He starts at her ankles and winds the rope up across her legs at several places, continues upward with ropes around her waist, then up above and below her tits. Her wrists are once again bound behind her back.

Her tightly bound body is then lifted into a standing position by a rope hoisted from the ceiling. Randa then runs a rope from between her knees and back around her neck, forcing the girl to bend forward and stay that way when the rope is tied off. He ties an extra-large knot in another strand of rope, which he then fashions into a gag by jamming it into her mouth (yes!) and tying that into place, too. Her bondage is complete, and she can barely move in that position.

Randa takes advantage of that fact by taking 2 whips and really letting her have it, swinging hard and making contact with every stroke. Then he takes out the gag (way too early for my taste) and continues to pummel her with the whip. The removal of the gag only makes her scream louder, and Randa continues to whip her with gusto.

Then most of the ropes are removed, and the exhausted girl can only weakly sob as her bondage is readjusted. Snot is running down her nose, but Randa doesn't care and instead he hoists her arms up over her head and ties her wrists to the line from the ceiling. With a hearty laugh, he takes his bullwhip and lashes away at Megu's body with vigor, leaving red marks across her midsection.

Then he pauses in his attack and lets someone else enter the picture. And in walks Sultry Bitch, and Megu realizes she was the one behind all this in the first place. Randa returns with the picture of Megu and her lover together, and he symbolically rips the photo in half, removing the lover from the picture. Then he takes the lover's section of the photo and sets it on fire in front of Megu, and she wails in agony as she realizes her lover was killed.

And now Randa and Sultry Bitch both grab bullwhips and finish the job on Megu, not stopping until her body is criss-crossed with red slash marks across her body. Both smiling, they leave her alone in her bonds. They taught her a lesson, all right. Fade out.

The end credits show behind-the-scenes footage of what happened right after filming of the actual movie was completed, as Randa and others help her out of her ropes, and she collapses and cries into Randa's arms.

I've seen several Japanese movies this year, and while most of them have some good or great scenes, this is the first one I've seen that works brilliantly from beginning to end. It's a 2 and a 1/2 hour long film, with no slack scenes or any reason to hit the fast-forward on the remote control. Megu Hoshino is a very appealing and cute victim, and her crying performance through the various tortures she endures is very real and believable. She was clearly suffering in this one, and of course, no one dishes out the abuse as well as Randa Mai. The story is easy to follow so you can fully understand the motivation behind the characters and know exactly why Megu is targeted and punished. That, along with outstanding action from start to finish, makes this the best movie I've seen this year.
