In their Japanese Cinema Encyclopedia The Sex Films, the Weissers compliment Yamashiros direction as the best thing about the film. They write that he, goes the extra mile to compose many astonishingly goodlooking sequences, punctuated by some creatively stylish camerawork. A lesbian shower sequence between Mineko and Sachiko is singled out for praise. The scene is shot from the shower faucets point of view, through a spray of water.
