Synopsis:
In the far east lies the country of Yanato. Since ancient times, it has been believed that this land harbors two worlds: the world above, where the gods live, and the world below, where humans live. Sakuna, a high-ranking and somewhat clumsy goddess, resides in the world of the gods. As the daughter of a god of war and a goddess of the harvest, she leads a lazy and carefree life, squandering the resources accumulated by her parents… But one day, due to an unexpected incident, Sakuna is banished from the city of the gods and sent to the isolated, demon-infested island of Hinoe!
Although in this barren land, where even the next day's food is uncertain, Sakuna must plow the soil, cultivate rice, and confront demons. Together with humans who have become lost in the world of the gods, this group begins to coexist, led by the young goddess of the harvest, where the rice husks dance in the wind!
