This is a Tokyo Onsen,
:18:15
a real service station
to wash and lube
:18:18
those Japanese who got drunk
on the previous night.
:18:22
The perfect functioning
of the company depends on
:18:26
some hundred girls
in shorts and bras,
:18:28
so that the patrons,
besides so many tortures,
:18:30
can at least comfortably
enjoy the landscape.
:18:33
According to a gentle
Japanese custom,
:18:35
the patrons must be naked.
:18:37
We covered him according
to a gentle custom of ours.
:18:42
Japan is maybe the cleanest
country in the world.
:18:45
The rituals of bathing
and massage
:18:47
are as old as its civilization.
:18:50
ln Tokyo, a city with
10 million people,
:18:53
6 million women tend every
day to 4 million men,
:18:57
pampering, flattering,
serving and rubbing them,
:19:00
in order to make their lives
more pleasant,
:19:04
according to an old,
admirable tradition.
:19:08
So, Japanese men,
:19:10
with every inch of
their bodies taken care of,
:19:14
without the smallest
personal effort,
:19:17
can taste
the heavenly relaxation
:19:21
that their god
will only grant them
:19:23
in the afterlife.
:19:32
Chinese men too,
give themselves up
:19:35
to the hands of a woman on
the day of their last makeup.
:19:39
They entrust
to her seductive arts
:19:42
their uncertain fate to come.
:19:45
Buddha is a wayward god,
very impressionable,
:19:49
and when he opens the gates
of the flowering garden,
:19:52
he cares more for the looks than
for the virtues of the dead.
