Plot
An overweight restaurant owner Takuro (Muga Tsukaji) while popular with people for his delicious dinners, is unlucky in love because of his looks, dress sense and terrible habits. Takuro longs for his part-time waitress Hiroko who fell for him
because of his warm-hearted nature, but rejects him because she believes he only cares about her looks.
A distraught Takuro is given the opportunity to try out a new invention, the Handsome Suit, which will make him good-looking, tall and deep-voiced. Noticing how differently hes treated, Takuro has to learn to overcome how looks matter both to himself and to society in general, particularly when he meets the homely but sweet Motoe.
