It's Japan in the days before Western contact. Sumo wrestling is considered one of the most noble sports in the land. Katsu Tarou, sixteen years of age, is a Makushita level sumo in a highly respected stable. Although he has mountains of natural talent and his skills are highly advanced for his age, since he hit his growth spurt he has failed to gain the required amount of weight. His father owns the stable he's in and has been training Tarou since he could walk and does not want to see him fail.
Hikari Umeko has just become a full-fledged geisha and is known throughout the district as a sweet-tongued girl who with her soft words and manner can make a man do nearly anything. Her house is largely employed by the Aita teahouse, a place frequented by sumos because of its bontiful and fattening food.
Katsu Masaru has decided to hire Umeko to entertain his son at the teahouse as often as possible in hopes that she'll make him pack on the pounds and give him the advantage in the sumo ring again.
