Synopsis
Umihara Kawase faces a sinister organization while uncovering her oceanographer father's legacy, aided by friend Kouichi Shioji.
A very loose adaptation of the story-light cult-classic Super Famicom/SNES video game of the same name. Umihara Kawase (who spells her name differently, indicating this is an alternate universe story compared to the games) must contend with a sinister organisation and confront the legacy of her oceanographer father with the help of her new friend Kouichi Shioji.
