One summer, a tenth-grader named Hodaka ran away from his home on a distant island and arrived in Tokyo. The noisy capital city, unaware of peace, greeted him with endless rains. It was there that the young man encountered Hina, a girl endowed with a remarkable gift.

In a world where bad weather reigns, the young man and the girl will challenge their fate.
