The Summer Hikaru Died, Vol. 6

At last, Yoshiki and "Hikaru" have their explanation for what "Hikaru" isn't, what he is, and what his fate may be. Tanaka may have all the answers, but he also needs their help. "Hikaru" isn't the only entity that has reached over from the other side, and without intervention, the holes between worlds could grow beyond Tanaka's ability to close them. Head, arms, legs-will Yoshiki and "Hikaru" still have them all when their task is done?

Mokumokuren is a manga creator who made their serial debut with the series The Summer Hikaru Died. Their compelling work which artistically injects horror into a coming-of-age story has garnered lots of attention on social media, and less than a year after the start of its serialization, it won first place in the male reader’s category of Takarajimasha’s “This Manga is Amazing!” list in 2023 and won 11th place in the Manga Taisho that same year. Mokumokuren’s breathtaking work has been adapted into various media, including a novel and a Netflix-exclusive anime series.
