Der Sommer, in dem Hikaru starb, Band 2

The setting has such a heavy, almost surreal atmosphere — I'm curious whether the author drew from personal experiences or crafted it purely fictionally.

The story's exploration of identity and loss felt very raw. I wonder if others connected with the characters' struggles on a similar level.

The mix of horror and personal identity was striking — I’d love to hear about the creative process behind intertwining these themes.
