STORY

〝I want a sparkling romance!” Tamaki Tsuru’s heart dances with excitement at the prospect of college life.
However, her life changes drastically when she falls in love with the sky!
What is the precious thing she found in the sky?
Tamaki Tsuru was overzealous about volleyball when she was in high school.
She moved to Tokyo from Nagasaki, longing for a “normal college life” filled with university club activities and romance, but soon after entering the university, she accidentally damaged someone else’s glider.

To pay for the damage, she ends up working as an assistant in the sports association aviation club.

She was dissatisfied with her current situation, which was completely different from her ideal college life. However, from the moment she took off for the first time in a glider piloted by Kuramochi, the club leader, she was captivated by the beauty that spread across the sky.

I want to fly more! Tamaki is gradually becoming more and more fascinated with the world of the sky.

Her innocent personality brightened up those around her, and gradually she formed a strong bond with her senior Sorachi and her classmates that she practiced hard with.
There, she finds the “fulfilling college life” she had been looking for.

However, she reunites with her older sister Chizuru, who she had a falling out with during a joint camp with another university.
Tamaki is depressed when her older sister, who has a cold attitude toward her over time, denies that Tamaki exists in the world of the sky.

Furthermore, she faces a strong rival in her first big event, the rookie competition.
She could not hide her agitation under pressure from those around her.

“Just be yourself.”

Kuramochi’s words enabled Tamaki to look up.
Carrying the thoughts and feelings of various people, she takes on the battle in the sky.

Will Tamaki, who has fallen in love with the sky, be able to catch the “the wind that can make you happy: Blue Thermal”?
