70

The Touzai Culture Division staff visit the spa at Shirakawa for a vacation where they had previously enjoyed hamanabe and takenoko sashimi.[m] They arrive and see a judo team training, including Tawara and Kanazawa from Butoku Women's University. They see them again later while eating hamanabe with rice for dinner on the beach. While the staff are celebrating late into the night, three of the judo students arrive desperate to eat white rice. They explain that they are kept on a strict diet which includes only brown rice which they find rough and unpalatable. The girls are caught and reprimanded by Tawara and Kanazawa who argue that their organic brown rice is good for health. Yamaoka disagrees and asks for a week to prove that brown rice can be nutritious and tasty. A week later, Yamaoka is unprepared, so the judo women take him to their dojo where he meets the manager, Takeko Miyamoto. She challenges him to a judo contest, but Kurita intervenes and asks for more time. Meanwhile, Yamaoka had the team's organic brown rice analyzed and it showed traces of fertilizer and antibiotics which had been introduced accidentally through the farm's food chain. Miyamoto apologizes and switches to true organic rice which appeases the judo team and helps them improve their performance. (Source: Wikipedia)
