Synopsis:
Set in the futuristic city of Neo-Venezia, this series explores themes of legacy and self-discovery within a unique social structure. Aika S. Granzchesta, the poised successor to a prominent gondolier association, defies expectations by rejecting her inheritance – the family’s renowned vessel. This decision puzzles Azusa B. McLaren, Aika's devoted apprentice, who seeks clarity through clandestine attempts to understand her mentor’s motivations.
As the winter season approaches and Neo-Venezia embraces a serene atmosphere, Aika reflects on her past experiences as an Undine, those moments shaping her identity and influencing her vision for the future. The narrative unfolds with a contemplative pace, focusing on character introspection and the weight of tradition versus individual aspirations within a world where artistry and heritage are deeply intertwined. It offers a nuanced portrayal of personal growth against a backdrop of elegant technology and maritime culture.
