Air - S01

Yukito Kunisaki is traveling in search of the Winged Maiden, a figure from an old story his mother told him about, said to have been tied to the sky long ago. To earn money along the way, he performs puppet shows for strangers. One day, he arrives in a quiet town where he plans to stay only briefly-until he meets a peculiar girl named Misuzu, who convinces him to stay with her. As Yukito spends more time in the town, he befriends its residents and learns about their struggles. Moved by their stories, he sets aside his quest to help them, growing closer to Misuzu and the town itself. With his search paused and his ties deepening, he begins to wonder: will he ever find the Winged Maiden, or has she been near him all along?
