Unhinged
Don't get me wrong, I knew what I was going to watch. It's just that instead of a movie about BDSM, they just made it into a manga inspired soft porn with dubious consent and bizarre behaviors from most of the people involved.
If anything, I'm guessing the manga they were inspired by to make this movie is a hentai manga. So that would explain a lot of weird and unhinged moment's, I just think that for adaptation they could've at least tried making it more logical.
So much unhinged moment's that would never happen IRL, and you can only meet in that type of movies and mangas.
Like when Kaoru's mom gave his sex toys to a neighbor girl to hide them from him. In a paper bag for that matter, at this point she could've used a plastic see-through bag… Hello? Aren't you even ashamed of giving a paper bag full of your son's sex toys to a neighbor? Like that is just so wild.
Or Nana trying on the “clothes”, without knowing where it was or if it was used by anybody! Who in their right mind would do that. I guess you could say, that since he doesn't have a girlfriend it's probably clean and unused, but what if he likes to wear stuff like this himself and don't wash it afterward? Or worse? Like girl, please, think about it before doing something like that!
As well as Kaoru blackmailing Nana into submission. That is disgusting and while I could see an argument of “well she did come back for more” and well the only thing I can say to this is: OF COURSE she did! Because you are watching a porn that has nothing to do with reality, and none of this bullshit would've ever happened in the real life.
The consent is dubious in this as well as Kaoru being an absolute disgusting creep. The way he's behaving is absolutely atrocious, no one who actually participate in any kind of BDSM relationship will ever act this way. Disregarding of what she wants and thinks and just bluntly pressuring her into doing things she isn't comfortable with, nobody is doing that unless they agreed upon that prior to action.
Overall, I think I'm just isn't one of those people it was made for, and that's why I see it to be so problematic…
