    Can somebody give me an elevator pitch for The Summer Hikaru died? It seems interesting but I’m still on the fence.

      Its about a boy named yoshiki who lives in a small rural town alongside his friend Hikaru. Ever since he went missing during the winter, however, hikaru hasn’t been the same…

      I don’t wanna spoil too much about it, but the anime’s animation is absolutely beautiful and does a great job at showcasing the horror aspect of the show. It also encourages you to look into thr deeper meanings of everything you see, and the characters aren’t stupid either !!

      First off, it’s already notable for being one of the only horror anime that doesn’t suck. Second, what if a creepy mountain monster took over your hot best friend’s body but hey he’s still kinda hot and still kinda the same person (same memories and a good imitation of his personality) and you can totally fix him?
