Overview

An ad campaign for a TV show called the “Male Training Contest” stirs chaos at a major electronics company. PR staffer Takayama opposes it, but his girlfriend Eiko, the show’s host, supports the idea. On opening night, PR manager Sugishita is forced to join the contest, where husbands fail miserably at household chores. Frustrated, the men later gather to complain about their domineering wives, only to be confronted by a carefree stranger who teaches them absurd tricks to “stand up to women.”
