Umemaro Vol. 12 – Work in Progress
Work in Progress is the fourteenth UMEMARO 3D release and twelfth mini-movie collection, released on June 21, 2014.
“My name is Hana Ono, and I’m using my summer vacation to clean toilets. It’s kind of a dirty job, but I intend to work hard, earn money and then go on a shopping spree. Meanwhile I secretly hope to get myself a boyfriend in the bargain. One day, a man suddenly came into the toilet stall I was cleaning…”
The game begins with Hana’s monologue over a montage of her preparing to clean the bathroom she is in, discussing her motivation for working, her plans after finishing the summer job, and pondering the possibility of gaining a boyfriend in the process. As she is scrubbing a urinal, Shinnosuke walks in, ignoring the “work in progress” sign on the door handle, and begins urinating in the urinal next to Hana. She briefly marvels at his penis after telling him that she is not done working, but dives back into her work, embarrassed. When Shinnosuke is done, however, he turns to Hana and begins sexually assaulting her, forcing her to give him a blowjob or handjob, ignoring her repeated protests. After he climaxes, he tears her top off and pulls up her support bra, exposing her large breasts, ignoring further protests. He then forces her to give either another blowjob or a titjob, climaxing again. Shinnosuke lifts up Hana’s skirt and removes her underwear, and the two then have sex, Hana asking him if he will be her boyfriend before he begins, to which he gives no reply, and later begging him not to climax inside her.
When Shinnosuke climaxes, however, Daichi and Gario emerge from two stalls in the bathroom, and pull away Hana, who had tried to hide behind Shinnosuke. Togo appears from the remaining stall, and pushes Shinnosuke against a urinal, knocking him out. The three of them then rape Hana in various positions, breaking her spirit by the end of it.
Shinnosuke awakens some time later to see that Hana has become a depraved sex addict, posting herself up in a urinal and allowing two men, one student-age, the other appearing to be Chairman Ohara, to have sex with and climax inside her. When they are done, she invites Shinnosuke over, and the two of them have sex again, Hana now completely engaged with the act. The game ends with Hana explaining that Shinnosuke is now her boyfriend, and that he visits her at work every day, over the same footage that opened the game, closing with an “END” title card.
Work in Progress was announced on November 18, 2013, with the reveal of the game’s protagonist. UMEMARO’s description of her as “simple and chubby” generated immediate controversy among the fanbase, despite the fact that Hana’s model was not all that larger than previous UMEMARO girls. Regardless, by February 13, 2014, UMEMARO had adjusted her body type a bit in direct response to comments on the previous blog post. UMEMARO did not post again until just before the game’s release, developing in relative silence compared to previous and future games.
The game itself received a similar reception to Hana’s reveal after its release, some fans citing dissatisfaction with UMEMARO 3D’s apparently increasingly stale offerings, while others enjoyed the game, citing Hana’s more homely appearance and the anal scene towards the end of the game as refreshing changes of pace. Accordingly, Work in Progress became the lowest-selling UMEMARO 3D release since the peak of Lewd Consultation Room.
