The narrative centers around Kouta Ometto, a high school student with a peculiar condition: he transforms into a swan whenever he becomes overly excited or stressed. This transformation is triggered by his heightened emotions, often leading to humorous and awkward situations. Despite his unusual predicament, Kouta strives to live a normal life and navigate the challenges of adolescence.
The story explores Kouta's relationships with those around him, particularly his interactions with his classmates and family. His best friend, Ritsu, is aware of his condition and provides support, often helping Kouta manage his transformations. Kouta also develops feelings for a classmate named Natsumi, who remains unaware of his swan form.
