The series is set in an alternate reality, where the women-only gambling sport becomes a fad in Japan. The match is held atop floating platforms, known as "Land" in a swimming pool stadium. The players fight to defeat their opponents by pushing them into the water using their breasts or buttocks. Nozomi Kaminashi was raised in a poor family. She participates in the sport after graduating high school, and finds success without difficulty.
