The Summer Hikaru Died, Vol. 7

光が死んだ夏 [Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu] #7

by Mokumokuren, Ajani Oloye (Translator), Abigail Blackman (Letterer)

Yoshiki and “Hikaru” learn from Tanaka that the only way to stop impurities from flooding the villages is to close the “holes” letting them through. The catch? Holes can only be closed from the other side―and once a living human crosses over, there’s no way back. With that in mind, “Hikaru” makes a daring proposition: seeing as he isn’t human, he can patch the hole and return using his connection with Yoshiki. Meanwhile, Asako and Tanaka try an entirely different tactic―convincing an impurity to do the job for them!

A whole volume of exploring holes. Nice. (And by that I mean that it was terrifying actually.)

[Nott]

I'm glad my boy Hikaru chose new sewing hobby, too bad he's trying to off himself again

[fatima]

”Then make sure ya get back here, okay? That’s my wish.”
YOU GOT ME FUCKED UP IF THIS IS DOOMED YAOI

[ᶻz ⋮ layla ⸝⸝ (ia)]

What do you mean "it’s just his body" don't play with me. "maybe I’ll get to see Hikaru again. But what about 'Hikaru’?” they’re in love your honor

[ollie]

We are so fucked! Sew my heart together instead.

[Carm]

“I know you can! ’Cos y’ain’t ever looked away from me.”

Holy hell. ARMS?! LEGS?! A stapler?! How’s that for a no-context review?

God, I love this series! 🖤

[Ilsa༄⸼۪❀]

Hikaru saying he'll be fine to Yoshiki "Cause you never looked away from me" 😭🤌🏻

Yoshiki's Arm....ahhh as much as i want them together but he's really mixing more day by day I'm so scared and worried for him!!

Hikaru's face when Yoshiki told him his wish is for him to come back awww my baby was so happy and surprised 😭

plus I don't like these new people who are now after capturing Hikaru U GUYS KNOW NOTHING leave already he's already trying everything to help Yoshiki 😔

Sksksksksk Yoshiki thinking if he died he can see Hikaru again but then being also worried about this 'hikaru' oh my heart hurts so much for him

And I'm glad everything went okay (not that okay ig) BUT WDYM JUST BODY WHERE'S MA HIKARU DON'T TAKE HIM!!!

[fulcrum]

oh what the hell i had hopes but NOW WHAT. i mean, i guess they’ll just have to carry all their sins together as yoshiki promised.

the art is amazing as always and the horror is definitely in the room with me.

ch. 37.4

[Anna Quilter]

"You'd be surprised at how often brute force works"

The creepiness level rises as in two locations..Hikaru/Yoshiki and Tanaka /Helper debate and then try to close the holes.

The story progresses and tensions are nicely heightened

Tanaka 🫦

[Susan Schubert]

There are two teams trying to close up the holes to ???, team main characters and team likeable/fun characters. There’s also another team just trying to keep it together but they’re not holing it up. They’re going to put Hikaru in a hole and have him close it! Will he make it out the hole? Will they close the other holes?? FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BA

[afton ★]

MY BOYS

[Valerie ✨]

Another 5 ⭐️ read! I shouldn’t be surprised because all of tshd so far has been 5 star 😂 Gahh I should’ve waited to read this book until vol 8 came out because this cliffhanger is killing me and we won’t get volume 8 until October (unless you find somewhere to read it online but I hate reading manga online it’s too confusing). It’s been about 8 months since the last book came out and I forgot how much scarier the manga is compared to the anime. They really nerf the horror part in the anime and i’m still salty about how the english dub isn’t country (because they literally are country). Anyways i’m rambling now but 10/10 recommend this book

[Lee Fr]

and here i was thinking i couldn't hate feet more passionately

(shelving this even tho i've read this online all up to chapter 37.4 just to remind myself where i've left off)

[⋆ ˚luxa⋆୨୧˚]

Tanaka I really like you

[Z ⋆˙⟡]

hikaru granting yoshiki’s wish but at what cost…

AHHH IM SO EXCITED FOR VOL 8 the english version is coming out in oct im gonna combust!!

also I love that my girl asako got time to shine in this volume!!

yoshiki and hikaru bonded as always

[Momo]

I got caught up in less than 24 hours. I knew it would be good and I was so so so right, and now I just want more. I love them. We don't have to talk about the little girl at the end, nothing happened, the boys are together again and gayer than ever.

[Agnese Rosengren]

Un altro cliffhanger spettacolare.
Spero che l'ottavo volume esca presto, perché sto amando tutto.

damn

গ্রীষ্মের এক রাতে নির্জন পাহাড়ে হিকারু হারিয়ে যায়। সারারাত তাকে খোঁজাখুঁজি করেও গ্রামবাসী পায় না। হঠাৎ কীভাবে যেনো ফিরেও আসে একেবারে অক্ষত অবস্থায়! তবে সেই রাতের কিছু জিজ্ঞেস করলে হিকারু এড়িয়ে যায়। শৈশবের বন্ধুকে আর আগের মতো মনে হয় না ইয়োশিকির। বারবার মনে হতে থাকে তার বন্ধুর শরীর দখলে নিয়েছে অতৃপ্ত কোনো অস্তিত্ব। সত্যি কি তাই? কী হয়েছিল সে রাতে? কেন হিকারু গেছিল নির্জন বনে?

অ্যানিমে সিরিজ থেকে সন্ধান পাওয়া কিন্তু একটা একটা করে এপিসোড রিলিজের অপেক্ষা আমার ধৈর্য্যের বাঁধ ভেঙে ফেলে তাই মাঙ্গা পড়ে ফেলি। মাঙ্গা সিরিজে ভলিউম ৭টা। সিরিজ কিন্তু শেষ হয়নি, অসমাপ্ত রাখা হয়েছে। অ্যানিমে সিরিজের কাহিনী আবার মাঙ্গা থেকেও কম। অ্যানিমের শেষটা দেখে কনফিউজড হয়ে মাঙ্গার বাকি চ্যাপ্টার দেখতে যেয়ে দেখি কাহিনী তো আরও আছে কিন্তু বাকিটা কবে যে শেষ করবে? হিকারুর সাথে শেষে কী হবে, তানাকার ব্যাকস্টোরি, আসাকোর এবিলিটি নিয়ে এখনো জানার বহু কিছু বাকি।

হরর, মিস্ট্রি, একাকিত্ব, বন্ধুত্ব নিয়ে লেখা "The Summer Hikaru Died" ইন্টারেস্টিং একটা সিরিজ। শুরুতে যতটা ভালো লেগেছিল শেষদিকে অনেকটাই পানসে হয়ে গেছে কাহিনী খামখা টানার জন্য। গ্রামের রহস্য বিভিন্নজন বিভিন্ন ভাবে বলে কনফিউজড করে দিয়েছে। তবে শেষে আসাকোর বলা কাহিনী নতুন রহস্যের ইঙ্গিত দিয়েছে। আর এমন একটা জায়গায় কাহিনী শেষ!!!!! নতুন ভলিউম আসতে আসতে আগের কাহিনী মনে থাকবে কিনা এই নিয়ে আমি এখন চিন্তিত।

El dibujo de este tomo es una locura.
