Chihaya Ayase is a girl who has spent most of her life simply supporting her sister in her modeling career. That changes when she meets a boy named Arata Wataya, a talented karuta player. After becoming friends, he believes that Chihaya has potential to become a great player. As Chihaya takes on a new dream of becoming Japan's best karuta player, she is soon separated from her karuta playing friends as they grow up. Now in high school, Chihaya is reunited with her childhood friend, Taichi Mashima. Together, they form the Mizusawa Karuta Club.

What stands out about this anime are the number of characters you meet. As well as the length of each match, which can be very exciting, until you’ve seen so many that it gets old after a while. Still recommended for those who like to try unbelievable skills in tennis.
