In the near future, much of the earth’s surface has sunk into the sea due to an unexplained rise in sea level. Natsuki Ikaruga, a boy who lost one of his legs in a childhood accident, has given up city life and moved to a country town by the sea.
He no longer had any family or relatives. All he has left is a boat and a submersible of his grandmother, who was a who was a marine geologist, and a debt. In order to recover his “lost future,” Natsuki dives into an undersea warehouse where his grandmother’s legacy is said to lie.
