[ Story ]

At Shutokuji Spa, masseuse and geisha are main attractions for the guests to the small resort. But while the geisha try to hold back the masseuse from the guests, the masseuses do likewise, without reserve.
One day, handsome Shibata visits the hotel to investigate whether the spa is suitable to accommodate a delegation of athletes from Parazilia before participating in the Olympic Games.
Geisha and masseuse immediately start providing their best service for Shibata in the hope of securing the patronage of the athletes.
Kiriko, the leader of the masseuse, always brings along a tape recorder and turns on mood music when massaging guests.
Akemi always preaches to the guests and is called ''Preacher Masseuse.''
Shimeyakko, the leader of the geisha, always wears a bikini bathing suit underneath her kimono and when required strips off the kimono and gives special service.
Edamame, although very small, knows many tricks to part men from their money.
