- High schooler Hodaka Morishima runs away from his island home to move to Tokyo. When his ferry to the city is hit by a freak rainstorm, he is saved by Keisuke Suga, who gives Hodaka his business card. As Hodaka struggles to find work, a teenage McDonald's employee, Hina, takes pity on him and gives him food. Later on, Hodaka finds an abandoned gun in a trashcan he fell onto. After tracking down Suga's business location, he meets Suga's niece Natsumi. Suga hires him as his assistant at a small publishing company, where they investigate urban legends relating to the unusually rainy weather in Tokyo. From a psychic, they hear the legend of a "weather maiden" who can control the weather. Hodaka sees Hina being intimidated into working at a back-alley club. He scares off its owners by firing his gun into the air, and he and Hina escape. She takes him to an abandoned warehouse with a shrine on its roof, where he throws the gun away. Hina astonishes Hodaka by demonstrating her ability to clear the sky by praying. Inspired by the legend of the weather maiden, Hodaka proposes that they start a business: Hina will clear the weather for events such as weddings and parties. Their business quickly becomes a success. The police search for Hodaka, who was caught on a security camera threatening the club owners. Officers arrive at the apartment where Hina lives with her younger brother Nagi and interrogate her; Hina realizes that because they have no legal guardians, with their mother having died recently, social services are going to take them into custody. Hodaka visits Suga, who has also been visited by the police. Suga fires him, explaining that the police suspect him of kidnapping Hodaka. Hodaka, Hina and Nagi try to run away, but they are halted by a heavy rainstorm and falling snows. Sheltering in a hotel, Hina reveals that she is slowly turning into water. She explains that she is the cause of the abnormal weather and is intended to be a human sacrifice; her disappearance will return the weather to normal. Hodaka promises to protect her, but the next morning, Hina has vanished into the sky and the rains have stopped.
