"Natsukawaaa! You remember our promise, right?! Just you wait and see! I'll beat you this time for sure!"

Good ol' Adachi Mitsuru. Certainly no stranger to the meeting of sports and romance, this time he brings us a oneshot about a kendo rivalry that revives every summer. Each year, Hikaru comes to town and tries to defeat Rin, and each year he fails.

Honestly, I love this story. Some oneshots try to fit way too much into their limited page count; Rakugaki doesn't have this problem. It seems to tell a fairly straight-forward story until a well-timed flashback reveals the hidden layers that the plot has had ...
