It was an aerial civilization that surpassed the civilization on the ground for thousands of years, but for some reason, the ancestors of Shida left Laputa, abandoned advanced technology, and lived a secluded life on the ground. However, one day, several unidentified men appeared at her door... The

story begins when the flying boat on which Shida was sitting was attacked by pirates in the sky. Cida, who was locked in the house in a mess of chaos, tried to escape, but accidentally fell from a 10,000-meter-high flying boat... Another protagonist, Baru, was the apprentice of a miner’s technician. A shiny thing is slowly falling. He ran over curiously and found that it turned out to be a cute girl floating from the sky surrounded by blue light... The

next day Cida woke up in Baru’s room and found it on the roof Baru, and learned from Baru that he had fallen down with a flying stone. Later, under the leadership of Baru, he saw a picture of Laputa in the room. This is the real city in the sky that Baru's father took all the hardships and dangers, but no one believes him except Swift. So my father died in depression. For the regret of his father, Baru vowed to confirm to others that there really is a Laputa in the world!
