I can see what you're saying, and i do agree with you up to a point. I too don't like the gangbang, all groping, all thrusting approach you sometimes get with chikan scenes,
Well I am not a huge fan of gangbang, but I don't dislike gb on principle. I don't like JAV gb because mostly JAV don't know how to film gb. Well if I think about it, gb is probably very difficult to film, so my complain is that too many studio/producer/director/idol/studs try to film gb and fail and not realize it.
And I was definitely not poo-pooing chikan because of gb. The problem with chikan is that the setting/background/NPC (especially!) are so nonsense that I think keep my mind on the sex (which could be fine, sometimes). NPC = Non Playable Characters (sorry borrow from games) maybe better Non Fucking Players (NFC). If chikan film is slightly realistic, then the sex would be so hidden that it makes lousy video. If the sex is even slightly decent for filming/fapping purpose than it must be pretty outrageous for a bus or train. Now if a hot girl is being fucked or r***ing on a bus, what would a NFC do? (1) punch the fucker and rescue the girl or call the police or something (2) join the fucking, maybe punch the active fucker first, (3) stare and take out the phone and film it, (4) shocked, embarrassed, look away from the scene, run away, avoid trouble. All these are acceptable in a porn either pretend-realistic or fantasy. But NOOOO, in most chikan films, the NFC are oblivious to the action. That's not just unrealistic (realistic isn't a requirement for JAV), the problem is it kills the "thrill" of public sex and/or public sex crime.
though some movies do get it right by having maybe just one of those scenes and if it's not too aggressive.
I would not even mind if it's aggressive or "rapey" or even "repetitive rapey", if it's done well. Say a girl goes on a train full of men, got gang r***ing, and then figures out she enjoys it, go back a few days later to get gang r***ing again (and again). It could work.
My enjoyment of chikan is just from the fantasy element of it. We've all been on public transport and looked over to see a gorgeous woman on board, and of course your thoughts immediately go to sex.
That's fine, but how does it go forward? Practically happens to me everyday, instead of staring at my phone like everyone else, I sometimes pass time on the transit by spotting hotties. But my fantasy never involve fucking her on the bus while the other passengers doesn't notice, right? A weak scenarios is feel up her legs or butts or even put my hands up her skirt and feel her butts/pussy, right? That's it. Fine for mental fantasy, lousy for JAV. A stronger scenarios is follow her off the bus and try to talk/seduce/fuck her. But once off the bus we are not talking chikan scenario anymore. I'm all for JAV involving bus molestation -> stalking -> sex.
I always enjoy the movies where it's one woman in multiple scenes, rather than the movies where it's just the same scene over and over, just with different woman. When we see a woman go from obviously disliking the nature of the molesting, to loving it by the end of the movie,
I don't mind either one or multiple woman in mutliple scenes. I do mind that a film is just a collection of repetitive scenes. And often chikan vids are just that.
If there's some psycho drama, say an innocent virgin was molested on train, went home crying for the violations but then also have wet dreams and masturbation, and maybe try some "normal" sex for satisfaction and not getting it, got molested again and this time got orgasm right there and then and finally by the end of it she went on trains without wearing panty and hunting for chikan. Yeah that would be great. Less a visual kind of porn, but more mental. But I think 99.9% chikan vids doesn't even try to make any psychosexualfantasy drama.
Now... problem is I have seen very few chikan vids, cuz my impression is so poor. But circular argument, I think most of them are fails so I don't watch them and so even if there are non-fails I wouldn't know about them.
And with Rion as lead, I bet it's yet another boring all-sex hey watch this unrealistic busty rubber doll get gang fucked vid.
If some studio really want to try a make a good chikan drama, perfect choice is Mao Hamasaki.
