Critical evaluationEdit
In their Japanese Cinema Encyclopedia: The Sex Films, Thomas and Yuko Mihara Weisser judge the film "Grim and depressing cinema." They write that the film is not sure whether it wants to be a Pink film or a yakuza film, shifting unsatisfactorily between the two genres. The most notable aspect of the film is that it gave Pink film star Miki Hayashi her on-screen debut, brief though it is.[3]
