As the curtain closes on their high school days, a group of determined swimmers embarks on a new chapter, fueled by their unwavering ambition to conquer the vast ocean of possibilities that lies ahead. Residing in the bustling city of Tokyo, Haruka Nanase crosses paths with his old teammate and dear friend, Shiina Asahi, at the prestigious Hidaka University. An unexpected reunion, this encounter triggers a flood of memories from their middle school swimming days. Haruka can't help but confront the ghosts that have long haunted his passion for the sport, leading him to abandon his swim team. However, fate has other plans as Haruka reconnects with his former classmates—everyone except for Ikuya Kirishima, who still harbors bitterness towards Haruka, blaming him for the team's dissolution. Determined to rebuild their broken bond, Haruka sets off on a mission to mend his friendship with Ikuya. Alas, little does he know that this heartfelt endeavor is just a fraction of the challenges that lay in wait. In the face of formidable competition and fierce competitors, Haruka finds himself thrust into the realm of elite swimmers. To prove his mettle on the world stage, he must summon every ounce of determination within him and push his limits beyond imagination. With dreams of conquering international waters, Haruka's journey towards excellence is anything but smooth sailing.
