The World's Most Noble Guy: Taro's Whirlwind
天下の快男児 旋風太郎
Synopsis
The third film in the Taro series, following "The World's Most Noble Guy: Taro's Eternity" and "The World's Most Noble Guy: Taro's Rush." Taro, who had painstakingly graduated from the University of Merchant Marine after six years, was on his way to work for Saikai Kaiun on a tourist ship on the Beppu route. He was in a euphoric mood, teasing a young lady playing golf on the deck, and helping the geisha Umeka who was being harassed by a drunkard, with his natural sense of justice, as the ship arrived at Beppu Port.
