Oozora Haruka, who's just moved to Okinawa, is generally cheerful and optimistic, but there's one thing she feels insecure about: she's taller than most other girls. Her cousin Higa Kanata also has one hang-up: she had to quit her beach volleyball because she was too short. The mismatched cousins find themselves paired up as a beach volleyball team.
