Synopsis
After-school banter between swim-team girl and lone domino-club boy turns into bittersweet summer romance.
She throws out the jokes, and I can't help but be the straight man. An after-school rom-com filled with emotion and laughs! Machino-san from the swim team always drops by the Domino Club's room, where I'm the only member, before her practice starts. She constantly fires off jokes in a sketch-style conversation, and I can't help but fire back. Back-and-forth banter, teasing words. Conversations full of nonsense... and maybe something more. Every day passed in a flash, yet those summer days felt like they could last forever in that clubroom. But when this summer ends, the dominoes between us will all begin to fall, at once. "Why did you suddenly start narrating a light-novel-style summary, Machino-san?" (Source: Kadokawa, translated)
