Synopsis:

Avihu, Nati and Betzalel (the "Ma Kashur" trio) reunite to rescue Shuli once again — this time in Japan.

Shuli has been kidnapped by the Yakuza, who plan to use him as a pawn in their internal power struggle. The three team up with Bat-Sheva, Shuli’s boss at the Tokyo restaurant where he works, and with a female-form robot. Together, they embark on a wild journey across Japan to track him down.

To complete their mission, they must battle ninjas, Yakuza soldiers, and perhaps most complicated -navigate the customs of Japanese culture and its traditions.
