Product Information

The Summer Hikaru Died ( Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu) is a horror/tragedy/comedy/BL manga by Ren Mokumoku. It began serialization in the magazine Young Ace UP on August 31st, 2021, and was licensed in English by Yen Press in 2022. Immortal Immaturity: Yoshiki notes that "Hikaru" often acts very childishly, unable to process his emotions properly and acting on impulse. Although he's an ancient Eldritch Abomination, it's implied this is because he's spent so long as a being so alien that experiencing existence as a human is completely foreign to him.

Holy Burns Evil: During the festival "Hikaru" is unable to enter the shrine grounds and hurts his palm, so he excuses himself to wait outside.While writing the story, Mokumokuren tries to keep the horror to a minimum by trying to appeal to people's emotions rather than just being scary. Mokumokuren also feels the theme of the story adds to the horror based on the suspension bridge effect, which states that it is easier to fall in love when feeling anxious or fearful. [6] For the artwork, Mokumokuren tries to use onomatopoeia that are not often used, while also staying cautious to make sure it works properly in the context of the story.

This was a really interesting bl, especially if you are into spooky story with hints of homoerotic subtext. To be honest, I was not prepared for that. I was assuming a story about longing and thought I'd actually cry a ton here, but obviously that was out of question. Still, with creepiness seeping in, it's highly enjoyable and I was actually rooting for the thing here. Which is kinda weird if you might ask me.Does This Remind You of Anything?: "Hikaru" having Yoshiki 'feel his insides' ( literally—his chest cavity opens up and Yoshiki puts his hand inside) plays out much like an awkward, fumbling sex scene between experimenting teenagers. And it's a scary relationship? the question mark because they are not even romantically involved, they just have this incredible sexual tension between them, they are not true to their feelings, they are not active sexually even though Hikaru keeps saying the most sexual double meaning shit ever! Yoshiki must now grapple with the fact that his best friend has been bodysnatched by some inscrutable alien force. While the imposter claims to be Hikaru and does an excellent job imitating him, Yoshiki isn't too sure, and as his mental state waffles between grief and terror, what will happen to the relationship he has with "Hikaru" is anyone's guess. a b c Chanmei (March 9, 2022). 幼馴染が全く別の”ナニカ”にすり替わってしまったら……？ SNSで話題沸騰『光が死んだ夏』の不気味な切なさ.
