Sixteen-year-old Umi Matsuzaki is a model student at Isogo High School. She lives at the nearby Coquelicot Manor boarding house, where she looks after her grandmother Hana and younger siblings Riku and Sora. One day at school, Uni meets Shun Kazama, a member of the journalism club who writes for the student newspaper. They become friends and pool their resources to lead a campaign to renovate the old and dilapidated building used by the school's various clubs before businessman Tokumaru can bulldoze it.
