(Synopsis)
Shinkai is a Buddhist priest who loves gambling and plenty of women. He also can put up a really good fight. This of course puts him at odds with the other monks at the monastery. Punished for a fight started by another priest, Shinkai is sentenced to isolation. At some point he just leaves to play dice in the city. He encounters an attempted rape and kidnapping by a bunch of young hooligans and is launched into a quest to break up a prostitution ring run by the same thugs who run the gambling house he goes to. The rest of the film is about Shinkai's quest, his attempts to set the young hooligans on a righteous path and the attempts by his fellow monks to disgrace Shinkai and the temple's head priest who is very tolerant of Shinkai's behavior. Fights and melodrama ensue in ample portions.
