Dans un Tokyo moderne et branché, des jeunes filles abordent chacune la vie de manière bien différente. Alors que certaines d’entre elles vendent leur corps naïvement, d’autres tentent de profiter de ce système ancré curieusement dans les entrailles de la capitale japonaise. Ainsi, Jonko joue un jeu dangereux : elle prétend coucher avec des hommes mûrs, mais dès que le client n’est plus sur ses gardes, elle l’assomme, lui vole son argent et s’enfuie. Elle entend ainsi profiter de ces hommes et du système en général qui veut que les petites écolières soient si prisées au Japon. La jeune Jonko rencontre bientôt Lisa, qui vient à peine de se faire voler toutes les économies qu’elle avait mis de coté afin de s’envoler pour New York. Epaulée par Raku, Jonko va user et abuser des ficelles qu’elle connaît si bien pour regagner en une nuit l’argent qui permettrait à Lisa de prendre l’avion qui doit décoller le lendemain.
