Kitahara Iori is ready for a fresh start. He moves to Izu, a beautiful coastal city, to begin his college life. With the ocean nearby and the promise of a fun, exciting life ahead, he’s full of dreams and excitement. Iori plans to live a normal college life—make friends, study a little, and enjoy his youth.
He moves into his uncle’s place, a diving shop called “Grand Blue.” Since it’s close to the beach, Iori expects peaceful ocean views, sunny days, and maybe even a little romance. However, the moment he steps into Grand Blue, his expectations are shattered.
Instead of calm and quiet, Iori is met by a group of loud, muscular men who love partying, drinking, and stripping off their clothes for no reason. These men are part of the college diving club and spend more time drinking and fooling around than actually diving. They quickly pull Iori into their crazy world.
At first, Iori is shocked. He wonders if he made a big mistake coming to Izu. He didn’t expect wild parties and out-of-control seniors. He also meets several beautiful girls, including his cousin Chisa, who loves diving but has no patience for his foolish behavior. Still, the more time he spends with these people, the more he begins to enjoy it.
Grand Blue Plot
Even though the diving club members are a bit much, they treat Iori like family. They support each other and share many unforgettable moments—both above and below the water. Slowly, Iori begins to see the beauty of the ocean and the joy of diving. He learns how diving brings peace, freedom, and a new way of looking at life.
“Grand Blue” is a story full of laughter, friendship, and wild fun. Iori’s college life is far from what he imagined, but it becomes something even better. Between hangovers, embarrassing situations, and touching dives into the deep sea, he grows up—though not always in the way you’d expect.
This series is about more than just comedy. It’s about finding your place, making lasting friendships, and learning that sometimes the best memories come from the most unexpected moments. Iori may not have gotten the peaceful college life he dreamed of, but he found something far more exciting and unforgettable at Grand Blue.
