To save both the Magical Kingdom and the Heavens and restore the flow of akuto — the flow of energy of everything — King Munto of the Magical Kingdom must follow a vision and find the girl Yumemi in the normal world.

Yumemi is just a normal girl except that she is the only one who can see the islands of the Heavens floating above.

When Munto appears before her she starts thinking about her responsibility and that of others to the world.

EP1 - Knowing

Yumemi heads to school with an umbrella propped open to block her view of the sky and meets up with two of her friends, Ichiko and Suzume. A war rages in the magical world overhead and Munto, with the help of Gass who sends him to the Lower world, seeks out Yumemi asking for her help, but gets interrupted before Yumemi can respond. At school, Suzume announces that she will marry her boyfriend, Kazuya. Yumemi and Ichiko become concerned and head out after school to see what kind of a person Kazuya is. The episode ends with the elders of the United Army Headquarters, headed by Gntarl, bringing out a gold combat automaton to give chase after Munto in the Lower world.

EP2 - Fleeing

Yumemi and Ichiko finally meet up with Kazuya by the river side, where the latter states his intentions to marry Suzume. His decision, however, causes a bit of unrest and uneasiness for Suzume's friends, Yumemi in particular, because of her thinking that both of them were still too young for such responsibility and commitment. Yumemi also gets a lot of unexpected visits from Munto, asking her for her cooperation in saving the Heavens with her supposed power to control Akuto , which adds more to her worries and confusion. The following day after meeting with Kazuya, both Ichiko and Yumemi hear about Suzume and Kazuya's plan to cross a river to symbolize their marriage . While both of them rush out to them, Yumemi gets interrupted once more by Munto, but this time while being pursued and attacked by the gold combat automaton sent after him by Gntarl. Meanwhile, both Suzume and Kazuya begin their venture out to cross the river.

EP3 - Confronting

Suzume and Kazuya begin crossing across the river, where they initially come across some resistance from some teachers who gave chase upon them, thinking they were going to commit suicide. Ichiko and Yumemi catch up to them, and cheer the two on as they make for the other riverbank, all while reminiscing about their past with Suzume. Meanwhile, Munto is seen continuing his battle with the gold combat automaton, and it is seen in the Heavens that the Magical Kingdom is down to its last pillar after withstanding most of the attacks on it, despite Gass' attempts to protect it. As soon as Suzume and Kazuya finish their crossing of the river, the Heavens suddenly become visible to everyone else. This spurs Yumemi then to look once more for Munto and offer to help him this time, thinking that she holds her loved ones' futures in her hands with her abilities. She manages to come across a slowly disappearing and badly weakened Munto after his battle with the automaton. Yumemi singlehandedly crosses the space-time continuum upon Munto's instructions, reaching out to him before he completely disappeared, and at the same time restoring the proper flow of Akuto to the Heavens, saving it from destruction.

EP4 - Yearning

A year and a half passes by and after a long uneventful stretch, Yumemi once again starts to see pieces of land from the Heavens falling to the lower world where she resides. Up in the Heavens, the Magical Kingdom is once again under siege by the heavenly state of Horguze. After a bit of a struggle, Munto manages to fend off the attackers by targeting and destroying their command ship. They are joined by some of the Ender forces, led by Lieca, who offers to come to their aid. The attacks by Horguze and some other heavenly states/countries were the result of the sudden influx of Akuto to the Heavens because of Yumemi's actions a year and a half ago, which drove most of them mad. It is for this reason that Gntarl seeks once more to acquire Yumemi and use her abilities to regulate the Akuto flow. Gass tries to stop his plans, but he is in a considerably more weakened state than before because of the stripping of his Outsider status following his assistance of Munto to get to the lower world. He loses an arm while trying to wipe out most of Gntarl's forces in his weakened state. He acknowledges to himself that he would need more help to stop Gntarl's plans after escaping. Gass finally appears once more in the Magical Kingdom, helping Munto fend off another attack, then sending him once more to the lower world to help protect Yumemi from being abducted by Gntarl.

EP5 - Confusing

Ichiko wants to take Yumemi to the amusement park to try to take her mind off of the floating islands only she can see. When Yumemi, Ichiko, and Suzume are helping out at Takeshi's shrine, Yumemi finds a large rock near the shrine which reacts to her touch, enabling her to get closer to Munto for an instant, but is then repelled. Yumemi continues to have visions of Munto's past, and Ichiko worries about her well being. The day they go to the amusement park, the day starts off well but later when they are eating lunch Yumemi starts acting strange and suddenly something falls from the sky causing a huge explosion.

EP6 - Believing

Ichiko tries to stop Yumemi from leaving her side after she tells Ichiko that she must go to where Munto is to help him. Suzume, however, believes in Yumemi and persuades Ichiko to let her go. Yumemi leaves to find Munto, who realizes the destruction was caused by Gntarl's attempt to abduct Yumemi via raising a portion of her city. Once Yumemi finds Munto, she pleads to him to grant her the chance to help him, but Munto does not want her to get involved any more. Ichiko, Suzume, and some others from school find Yumemi on a Ferris wheel car dangling over a cliff, and Ichiko tries to keep her to stay by asking her to come back, but Yumemi has already made up her mind. Yumemi convinces Munto that he needs her help, and Yumemi leaps from the car into Munto's arms, effectively bridging a gap between the two worlds. The resulting explosion disables Gntarl's ship, and Munto takes Yumemi to the heavens in the midst of a battle. Yumemi is protected while Munto goes to fight.

Yumemi's protectors are attacked, causing her to fall and unexpectedly release a tremendous amount of power to quell the fighting. Afterwards, Yumemi meets with Munto and Ryuely, and learns more about the Akuto from Toche while eating strange fruit produced from Akuto. Gntarl does not want to give up trying to capture Yumemi and decides to do it alone, against the others. Munto shows Yumemi the distant past and how the Heavens came into being. Munto wants to keep the Heavens from falling, so he needs Yumemi's help, and he tells her that even though he cannot erase the sins of the past, he wants to make a better future.

Yumemi is taken to Ryuely to prepare her to support Munto, and she sees Ichiko and Suzume trying to support her. They fall off the Ferris wheel and Yumemi is able to complete the ceremony by going to them and taking them back to the Heavens. Ichiko does not want Yumemi to go off by herself again, and is overjoyed when Yumemi invites her and Suzume to come along with her.

EP9 - Loving

The Akuto automaton catches the falling Yumemi and her friends and fly them towards the pillar of light to assist Munto. Yumemi laughs the experience off, demonstrating the effects of the ritual Ryuely led her through. Gntarl is on the scene watching Munto energize the pillar of light as he computes his next move. Gntarl captures Ichiko and Suzume, and demands capitulation of Yumemi who decides to sacrifice herself. Much to everyone's surprise, Yumemi turns the tables on Gntarl with a harsh lecture on his misconduct. In spite of the turn of events, Yumemi is upbeat with the perspective that nothing has really been lost as long as the selfless spirit is protected. Yumemi is able to defeat Gntarl and regain her friends, though Munto cannot stop the pillar of light from fading. Afterwards, Yumemi and her friends offer their power to Munto, and the two worlds are finally stabilized and merged.
