The Gentle Art of Japanese Extortion
The story basically revolves around a hotel that is regularly harassed by the Yakuza (the Japanese Mafia) by using civil manipulation to extort money. The hotel decides to hire a street-smart and charming lawyer, who also happens to be a woman, to help and train the hotel staff to defend itself against the Yakuza's "gentle extortion" tactics.
There are a lot of funny and charming moments in the beginning as the hotel employees try to deal with the Yakuza on their own, and fail miserably. But then Miyamoto enters the picture as the wily lawyer and employs her strategies.
The main characters evolve from whimpering sissies into confident, headstrong and defiant defenders of the old hotel.
