The Otake Bathing Resort in Ibaraki Prefecture has a reputation for having the highest number of accidents among bathing resorts in Japan, despite having very few bathers. To prevent the resort from being closed down after one more fatal accident, the town assembly passed a bill requiring the lifeguards to establish an official bathing area and enforce strict rules. Lifeguard Arashi Wakutsu, known for his skepticism, emphasized the importance of ensuring no swimmers die. However, newcomer lifeguard Taifu Saotome disagreed with the rules set by Arashi, accusing him of turning the sea into a swimming pool and neglecting their duties. Despite Arashi's disapproval, Taifu expanded the swimming area with the support of others like amateur surfer Nagiko and beach house owner Choichiro Hamaoka. (DramaWiki)
