In ancient China there was a legend about carp leaping through Dragon Gate. Modern story-tellers and artists have created a children’s story under the same title.

Their search takes them through stormy waters and they encounter various dangers but they learn much through their struggle. Through tenacity and joint efforts, they finally leap into an ideal land where they discover beautiful scenery and become the happiest carp in the world.
