Brother and younger sister-in-law live in the house which parents are often away from. Yuki who is the younger sister is secretly yearning for Kenji who is the elder brother. However, one girl came to show up from the closet in Kenji's room after a certain night. Moreover, her body is transparent, and she looks like the ghost. Her name is Hiyori. She is a friend in their childhood. They are pleased with reunion though Kenji and Yuki are perplexed with the way of Hiyori's strange appearance. However, Yuki gets the mind shaken as Kenji and Hiyori become intimate, and the pain in her mind in the childhood is recalled.
At the childhood, Yuki was going to pass the light blue toy ring which Kenji had had to Hiyori in exchange for Hiyori's yoyo. However, because Hiyori became sick, and had moved, the promise was not an accomplishment. Their events in the childhood seem to be related to Hiyori's showing up in front of them.
A painful love story of Kenji and two girls progresses.

Where it came from
Mizuiro was originally released as a visual novel in 2000 by the developer戲画 (Giga), gaining significant popularity in the adult gaming market for its emotional narrative and character-driven focus. The 2003 OVA adaptation was produced by OLM, a studio better known for its work on long-running shonen franchises. The animation sought to condense the complex, branching storylines of the source material into a more linear, cinematic format, aiming to capture the melancholic atmosphere that defined the original game's cult following.
The adaptation process involved shifting the visual style to match the standard anime aesthetics of the early 2000s while retaining the core character designs from the game. Upon its release, the OVA received a polarized reception; while fans of the original visual novel appreciated the opportunity to see their favorite scenes animated, critics noted that the condensed narrative struggled to replicate the depth and emotional stakes of the source text, resulting in a production that serves primarily as a companion piece for dedicated enthusiasts.
