    Synopsis:

    The series follows Aoi Yukimura, a high school student grappling with a childhood trauma that transformed her passion for mountain climbing into a deep-seated fear of heights. Isolated by this fear and withdrawn from social interaction, Aoi’s life is unexpectedly disrupted by the return of Hinata Kuraue, a spirited friend from her past. Hinata's persistent encouragement draws Aoi back to the world of climbing, sparking a journey of self-discovery. The narrative explores themes of overcoming personal limitations through connection and the rediscovery of forgotten passions. As Aoi re-engages with climbing, she navigates newfound friendships and challenges, slowly building confidence and finding strength in both her past and present relationships. The anime offers a contemplative look at healing, belonging, and the power of supportive camaraderie.
