Synopsis of The Summer Hikaru Died:
The best friends, Yoshiki and Hikaru, have been glued like glue for almost their entire life. They live in a small town and are the only children of their age, so they find comfort in their mutual company. Their friendship seems picturesque at first sight, but Yoshiki has noticed a change in Hikaru’s behavior since a fateful summer.
The “Hikaru” who now sits next to him looks nothing like his friend. Even though his physical appearance and memories remain exactly the same, Yoshiki knows that something is wrong and that the Hikaru he once knew has disappeared. When he brings up the subject, Hikaru partially transforms into a being from another world who threatens to kill Yoshiki if he does not accept it, while professing his love to him.
Shattered by the pain and unable to let his best friend go, Yoshiki struggles to move on with his life as he approaches the new Hikaru. At the same time, strange events begin to devastate their village, sowing disturbing chaos.
