At Tokyo's Mizusawa High School, where cherry blossoms dance, a girl named Chihaya Ayase (played by Hirose Suzu) who loves competitive karuta arrives. In elementary school, Chihaya was influenced by the transfer student Arata Wataya (played by Masaki Suda) and got involved in karuta competition, and from that moment on, she couldn't get enough. After entering high school, she reunites with Taichi Mashima (played by Shupin Nomura), who participated in competitions with her and Arata back then, and together they establish a competitive karuta club. In addition to the two of them, members like Kanade Oe (played by Mone Kamishiraishi), Yusei Nishida (played by Yuma Yamoto), and Tsutomu Komano (played by Yuki Morinaga) participate as well. Everyone works together steadily toward their goal of the national tournament; however, standing in their way is the prestigious Kitano Academy, which has a long history in competitive karuta, and this formidable opponent shows no mercy in crushing this newly formed team. During this time, Chihaya receives news of Arata, filling her with joy as she anticipates reuniting with her long-lost friend on the competitive karuta stage once again… This film is adapted from the manga of the same name by Yuki Suetsugu.
