Series by ねむようこ

Torako Ichinose, a typical high school girl on her school’s girls’ basketball team, is more interested in finding a boyfriend than excelling at sports. She views graduation as the end of her youth and wants to experience everything before it’s too late. A mysterious man claiming to be a god appears, declaring that the Earth will perish unless her team wins the county tournament. Though skeptical, Torako and her teammate Kanako Yukimaru rally to improve their basketball skills, aiming for a game-changing three-point shot. Amidst their training, they navigate teenage romance, friendships, and the pressure of their seemingly absurd mission.

Miku, a 25-year-old woman, returns to her hometown to train under her grandfather, who runs a traditional herbal medicine pharmacy, aiming to become its third-generation successor. She assists customers with their physical and emotional concerns, using herbal remedies and heartfelt conversations alongside her grandfather. At a class reunion, Miku reconnects with old friends but misses seeing her first love, Akito, sparking memories of past promises. On her way home, she encounters Kanae, a shy, plant-loving young man who intrigues her, stirring new feelings despite her lingering attachment to her past. Their interactions, set in a slightly mystical town, begin to shape Miku’s journey as she balances her duties and evolving emotions.
