HGSN 22-3
Chapter (Japanese)
(Please hit the green thumbs up at the end of the chapter to show support)
Rough translation by me
P1
Rie: How long has 'Hikaru'-kun been asleep for?
Rie: The medical examination turned up nothing, right?
Yoshiki: It's already been 2 days. It probably...takes time. For life-threatening damage
Yoshiki: So it sounds like you don't have any idea who that man was either, Kurebayashi-san?
P2
Rie: That's right... but it sure is strange~
Rie: From the sound of it, he came to cut 'Hikaru'-kun to check if he wasn't human...
Yoshiki: A spiritual medium... or someone like that?
Rie: Then someone in Kubitachi must have hired him, right?
Rie: If that's the case, it wouldn't be strange for word of 'Hikaru'-kun to have spread under the surface
Rie: Despite that, it's been two days without anything happening
Rie: What was his goal?
Yoshiki: Wasn't it to exorcise him?
Rie: Huh? No, no, you can't, you can't!! Ahaha
Rie: There's no exorcising something like him~
P3
Rie: Although he's much weaker, he's not at a level where humans can do anything to him.
Rie: Whether he can do anything to humans is a different matter, mind you...
Rie: What humans can do to him is to physically remove him from the village...
Rie: or perhaps lock him up?
Yoshiki: Oh, I see...
Rie: Stay on alert, and if it gets dangerous, you can take refuge at my place. I'll also look into that man
Yoshiki: "Look into"...how?
P4
Rie: People with the sight have our own ways of searching
Rie: (A medium...? or was it that company...?)
Yoshiki: (Just a housewife...?)
TV: {Male in his twenties reported missing...last seen at Kibougayama's Darumazuka* Tunnel...}
(* - 達磨塚 - "daruma" + "mound/grave")
P5
TV: {...a tunnel known as a famous paranormal hotspot. On the morning of the ■th, the man, a Ytuber, posted to social media, "I'm going to Darumazuka. If I make it back alive, I'll upload the video"...}
Yoshiki: (The patient in the next bed has their TV turned up so loud...)
Rie: Hey, do you know? What made Darumazuka a paranormal hotspot?
Yoshiki: It's a famous place...but I don't have a clue why
Rie: A long time back, they found bones here
Rie: A massive amount of ancient bones
P6
Rie: This was something that happened before you were born, Tsujinaka-kun.
Rie: The odd thing was that all of the bones were only from the torso
Rie: And in Udekari, they found only bones from the arms...
Rie: And in Ashidori, only bones from the legs
Yoshiki: Uh-huh...?
Rie: It was said that there was a practice of dismembering the body for burial, but...
Rie: The strangest thing was that for all of the remains
Rie: The skulls were the only parts never found
Yoshiki: (Skulls...)
Yoshiki: Ah
P7
Yoshiki: (The man I saw the time I was engulfed by 'Hikaru'...If you look closely, doesn't he look like Hikaru?)
Yoshiki: (A memory from Nounuki-sama of seeing the Indou's ancestor...?)
Yoshiki: ("The crime of the Indous" "A god that grants wishes in exchange for a particular kind of offering")
Yoshiki: (Severed heads?)
Yoshiki: (Now that I think about it, the monsters I've seen up til now...)
Yoshiki: (...have all been messed up above the neck)
P8
Yoshiki: (That man offered a severed head to Nounuki-sama and wished for something)
Yoshiki: (Is that connected to the mass deaths?)
Yoshiki: (The heads went to Kubitachi...)
Yoshiki: (And the other parts were buried elsewhere?)
Yoshiki: ....
Rie: Tsujinaka-kun!
Rie: 'Hikaru'-kun has woken up...!
P9
Yoshiki: 'Hikaru'...!!

Some of you may remember the Ytuber that went to Darumazuka Tunnel from the Vol 3 Promotional Riddle Game.

Top 3 manga panels
Like last year and the year before, I read a lot of manga. Here are, of all the manga I read this year, the top 3 panels that stood out to me + an honorary mention.
Mild spoilers for: Yuri Espoir Spoilers for: Ao no Flag, MADK
1-Hikaru Ga Shinda Natsu/ The Summer Hikaru Died, Ch 2
Tumblr media
I made an entire post on why this is my fave panel. You can read it here
2- Ao No Flag/ Blue Flag (Ch 54)
Tumblr media
I vomited the day I read this chapter and ngl when I saw this panel I almost vomited again. I sometimes re-read ch 54 JUST so I can get to this scene and re-experience the pure joy of seeing this page. Can you guys believe there are people out there who don't like the end of Blue Flag? It's literally the best end to anything ever
3- Yuri De Naru/ Yuri Espoir (Ch 1)
Tumblr media
I should do an analysis post for Yuri Espoir like I did for HGSN, it deserves one just as much, especially bc literally nobody knows of Yuri Espoir TOT And it's so good! If you're curius as to why I love this panel so much, go check out Yuri Espoir! This is literally chapter 1 ;)
Honorary mention: MADK (Ch 19)
Tumblr media
Literally clapped when I saw this. Considering this is the resolution to the entire plot, the way the authors draws it is so satisfying and mesmerizing to look at. I can really feel all of story weighting on this single moment, and how he doesn't look triumphant at all, but a much darker, much more evil emotion, which exemplifies the whole message about the cycle of abuse and revenge the story is going for.

Okay but on a serious note the last panels of this chapter really set out “hikaru”s character development. “Hikaru” undoubtedly grew up so much since the beginning of the manga. He went from being childish and impulsive (with yoshiki even telling him that he shouldn’t overstep his boundaries just because he wants to , it makes people uncomfortable * this was during chapter 10 btw*) to now trying to understand a concept that is fundamental foreign to him ,because it’s simply something that he’ll never be able to experience , just so he can never hurt yoshiki’s feelings again. Because he cares THAT MUCH about him.
And just like the insta account hikarugashindaupdates said (which I really recommend to follow to see their translations etc) “Hikaru” is putting in so much effort into trying to understand yoshiki compared to what most people would do.
So now this brings the question , what will “Hikaru” do? Because even tho it’s true that he’s trying to better himself this doesn’t remove his obsessive and overly possessive tendencies from the picture. Already in chapter 3 he states that HE should be the only one Yoshiki has eyes for and also that other spirits aren’t allowed to stick to him. He’s the only one that should and can.
We still don’t entirely know what being “mixed up” actually means but I have some theories about it.
Always from hikarugashindaupdates they said that one of their Japanese moots explained to them that during chapter 19 both yoshiki and Hikaru were inside yoshiki soul space (now do I know what that is? No,I absolutely have no clue 😭) because they are mixed up. So basically what I’m getting is that yoshiki’s soul is being corrupted and I believe that mokmoklen might be trying to allude to the fact that if Yoshiki were to die and his soul would reach the far shore , his soul wouldn’t be reborn because fundamentally he wouldn’t be considered human anymore.
(Btw for those who don’t know the far and near shore are both Japanese beliefs and are equivalents to the world of the dead and the living. When a human soul dies they cross between these two boundaries, reach the far shore and ,in the case of hgsn, gets reborn.)
So I believe this will be the time for “Hikaru” to actually get his shit together and be like “okay it’s either I distance myself from yoshiki because he deserves to be happy and safe like I want him to but with me out of the picture or I’ll make yoshiki be with him for eternity”. I love “Hikaru” so so so much and I really want for him to make the right choice (even tho at this point I believe that Yoshiki himself would be quite defiant at the idea of them separating and probably wouldn’t let it happen) but at the same time he wants for yoshiki to be with him forever and I don’t know what he’ll do.
* something that I forgot to add before (and this is mainly taken by toilet bound hanako kun which I love so much and I highly recommend reading) it is said that usually human sacrifices are needed to restore the balance between the far and near shore. We already know about yoshiki’s ancestor and Ichi-San needing to return on the mountain so ☺️

HGSN 21-1
Chapter (Japanese)
(Please hit the green thumbs up at the end of the chapter to show support)
Rough translation by me
P1
(sfx: cicada calls: kumazemi)
(sfx: cicada calls: higurashi)
P2
(txt: smaller grave marker labeled "Caw-tarou" in childish handwriting)
(txt: bread wrapper labeled "Cream pan")
Yoshiki: Sorry this is all there is
Yoshiki: As long as he's around, no one will hold a funeral for you...
P3
Yoshiki: But, if he's here, I can go without forgetting you, so I'm glad
Yoshiki: 'cause that's...what scares me...the most...
Hikaru: Whoa
Hikaru: So you were here? Brings me back...
Hikaru: We used to always play here back then right?
Hikaru: Ah, look at this
P4
(txt: "Start→" written in childish handwriting)
Hikaru: The Super Maruo stage I made. The one you played with your finger while making "pwing" noises and stuff.
Yoshiki: Yeah
Hikaru: ...
P5
Hikaru: Hey...what are the differences between me and Hikaru?
Yoshiki: You're completely different...
Yoshiki: He'd read the room more than you do, he was more mature...
Yoshiki: And he was harder to understand
Yoshiki: He was more of a rascal. He'd tell lies, and he could be pretty wily.
Yoshiki: And...
Yoshiki: he'll definitely never come back. So you're different.
Hikaru: ...
Hikaru: ...did you 'like' him?
P6
Yoshiki: ...why?
Hikaru: No...it's nothing, just...
Hikaru: 'cause
Hikaru: Before, you looked away after seeing my bare chest...
Hikaru: And like...
Hikaru: I was just wondering... why...
Yoshiki: ...I don't want to say
Hikaru: ...why?
P7
Yoshiki: ...Now, even if I look at your body, I don't feel anything in particular anymore
Yoshiki: ...And also...when it comes to these feelings
Yoshiki: I think its fine if you don't understand them
P8
Hikaru: ...what's with that?
Hikaru: ...It's true that they're...not something I have. Those feelings...
Hikaru: Compared to humans, on a fundamental level,
Hikaru: I'm totally different, I guess
Yoshiki: There are things we have that only we have
Yoshiki: Also...
Yoshiki: You don't need to turn into a human or anything
P9
Hikaru: Huh..?
Yoshiki: In fact, please don't ever become anything like a human
(sfx: grab)
Hikaru: Hey!
Hikaru: Sure...?
P10
Yoshiki: (He's a being different from us in every way)
Yoshiki: (There's no way we could come to terms with each other on every point)
Yoshiki (That said, given that he's here)
Yoshiki: (it still doesn't make it okay for him to kill people, but...)
Yoshiki: (Rather than forcing him to fit in with humans)
Yoshiki: (if there was a place where he could live as himself instead...)
P11
Yoshiki: (For that, I'd...)
Yoshiki: (give everything...)
(sfx: cicada calls: kumazemi)
(sfx: cicada calls: higurashi)

(sfx: marker on paper)
==
Next chapter: 2023/09/19
Twitter Extras (link):
'Hikaru's vocabulary is limited, so he'll say "like", but it differs from what humans mean by "like".
Why do dogs dig holes?
Why do cats sharpen their claws?
Just as humans can't understand these intrinsically, 'Hikaru's "like" may also not be understandable to humans.
==
T/N:
Regarding the cicada sounds in Japanese:
- Up until now, cicadas cries in HGSN have been represented with the sound "shawa shawa shawa"
- This is likely to represent the cry of the kumazemi (Cryptotympana facilis) which is very common in Western Japan and associated with summer: video sample
- In this chapter although there are still some "shawa shawa shawa" cries in the background, the largest cries are "kana kana kana" instead
- This is likely to represent the cry of the higurashi (Tanna japonensis) which is associated with late summer/autumn, and is thought to have a melancholy or lonely sound: video sample
By the way, in the final frame, we can see the word Nounuki partially obscured and the name Matsuyama, as well as an unfamiliar proper noun circled in the center. I expect next chapter to give more context and a full image for the chart in the final frame.

Tanaka: Aw man, really?
Tanaka: I'm not very fond of shiitake, though. Doesn't it feel like it turns your saliva into soup stock? Do you like them?
P4
Yoshiki: Well I don't hate shiitake, but...um...?
Tanaka: I'm a folklore researcher, see. I came to study the settlement here.
Tanaka: I'm usually lodged at Mikasa-san's place...
Tanaka: What should I call you?
Yoshiki: I'm Tsujinaka...from that house over there...

Due to certain circumstances, Tanaka's hamster has the soul of a human child inside it. Although its conciousness is that of a hamster's, because of that, it can sense things not of this world.

HGSN Line game questions and answers
Volume 2 of Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu went out in Japan with a limited edition student card of Yoshiki with a special QR code for a Line bot. Moku said that they wrote almost all the answers, so let’s assume most of the information here is canon. I made a compilation of (I think almost) all answers, thanks to my dear moot Agnes that provided me the screenshots to the conversations (thanks a lot).
Tumblr media

Yoshiki: April 20th
Hikaru: March 20th

HGSN 17-2
Chapter (Japanese)
(Please hit the green thumbs up at the end of the chapter to show support)
Rough translation by me
=
P1
Hikaru's Grandpa: Hichi-san must be returned to the mountain
Grandpa: They're not in the Hall* either
Hikaru: What's "Hichi-san"? A person?
Grandpa: That person is....
Grandpa: ...a pitiful person... A long time ago**... if they hadn't asked Unuki-san for such a thing...
Grandpa: This village ... (incoherent)... bears a heavy karma... from a long time ago...
(* - 堂 (hall/temple/shrine) is the dou in Indou)
(** - EDIT: Mokumoku len confirmed this was a typo, lol. I have corrected the translation)
Tumblr media
P2
Yoshiki: Oi, he's halfway to heaven
(sfx: eyes flash open)
Grandpa: Yoshiki? If that isn't you, Yoshiki! Why, you've gotten so big! There, there.
Yoshiki: Wah!
Grandpa: Hikaru, hand him the, uh... shiitake mushrooms from the front door, won't you?
Hikaru: Um, Grandpa, weren't you saying something?
P3
Grandpa: What was it again...?
--
Hikaru: Well, in the end we didn't find out much
Hikaru: Mom and Grandma didn't know anything either
Yoshiki: Hikaru's dad went into that mountain and did something
Yoshiki: It must be told only to the men in the Indou family...
P4
Yoshiki: He said something like "return to the mountain"
Hikaru: Yeah
Yoshiki: Some kind of duty passed down between generations?
Yoshiki: ...and the reason Hikaru went to the mountain was also...
Hikaru: Oh, that's right, Yoshiki, there's something I want to show you
P5
Yoshiki: "Name some disturbing place names"
(header: Wan-soku)
(title: "Name some disturbing place names" Summary)
1. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
pls
2. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
no famous ones
Yoshiki: A summary of an imageboard thread?
Hikaru: Look
Yoshiki: Whoa, too close
15. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
Around □□□□ in □□□□ Prefecture, there's a place called Kibougayama but all the surrounding settlements have body parts in their names, its creepy
17. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
>>15
tell us more
P6
18. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
From the top, there's Kubitachi (Head-rising), Udekari (Arm-cutting), and Ashidori (Leg-taking). In the center, there's a town called Kibougayama (Hope-mountain), but that's so unnatural as a place name it wraps back around to being disturbing
(sfx: ad says "first time is free")
19. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
I heard that places with Kibou (Hope) in the name are dangerous
Originally they had an unlucky name associated with some kind of danger, and people were like "fuck we can't sell this land! alright, change the name!"
20. Truly Unsettling Anonymous
the name of the place I live in is real bad
its called abakijakuzuresaiakutani  (Raging-demon-serpent-collapse-most-evil-valley)
Hikaru: After that, it never gets talked about again, but it is true that the place names in our area are strange
Yoshiki: ... should we go to the library tomorrow and look up Kubitachi and stuff?
P7
Yoshiki: What is "this village's karma"?
Yoshiki: If there was something that could be a clue to his true nature...
(sfx: cicadas chirping)
(sfx: crows cawing)
P8
Yoshiki: He said he forgot something and hasn't come back at all.
Yoshiki: Maybe I should just head to the library first...
Asako: Ah!
(sfx: jolt)
Asako: Um...
Asako: You took the day off yesterday, are you feeling alright now?
P9
Yoshiki: I'm fine. ...Are you alright? After all that...
Asako: Ahaha, Aha...I'm fi-
Asako: ...no, no, about that...
Asako: After that, its become harder to hear out of my right ear
Asako: Even at the hospital, they didn't know the reason
Asako: I wonder why...
Yoshiki: Oh....I see......sorry
P10
Asako: Why are you apologizing, Yoshiki? It's nobody's fault
Asako: Um...., at that time, Hikaru was acting strange..wasn't he?
Asako: ...like, it was like it wasn't Hikaru at all...
Asako: The evil spirit I was talking about...
Asako: ...maybe it took over Hikaru
Asako: Now that I think about it, there were a lot of strange things...
Yoshiki: ...If.
Yoshiki: If that were the case, ...would you hate him?
P11:
Asako: ...What? I don't get it...
Yoshiki: Please don't hate him too much
Asako: Huh? A-are you seriously saying that?
Yoshiki: ...No. Just joking.
Asako: Yoshiki...?
=
Next chapter: 2023/05/30
Alas, I am not very confident in my translation of Hikaru's grandfather's lines... I have opted to use gender neutral pronouns until we find out more about who these people were. Place name readings are my best guess and might be incorrect. Edit: tweaked the section with place names a bit...Sorry for any confusion

hgsn theory: Tanaka is from Kubitachi, and is (probably) Rie Kurebayashi's son
now that Tanaka is back (FINALLY OMG) I would like to share this theory I have been thinking of for a while. Out of respect for the  ch 0-11 scanlators, I will not be sharing any screenshots of the pages I'm referencing, but listing them instead. It shouldn't be a big deal since I do describe all the important parts so u don't have to click on them every five seconds, its just to prove I'm not making shit up. Also, for those who don't know who Rie Kurebayashi is (I don't blame you, we literally only know her name based on Yoshiki's contact on his phone): She's the middle aged woman who can see the yokai, and urges Yoshiki to get away from Hikaru or else they'll get "mixed up"
• She mentioned in ch 6 pg 11 (Mangadex) that her dead husband left a scar on her son's body. Who of the cast of characters has a scar on their body? Tanaka. Feels very Chekhov's gun-ish to mention this very specific detail and then introduce a character with a scar right after. • In ch 9 pg 32, he says "Kubitachi is a dank, musty, miserable hole. Imagine if I just... didn't go...". Kubitachi isn't a well known place that has any reputation, yet he describes it with disdain. The only way he would know such things is if he lived there once. • The elders know Tanaka. Mikasa (glasses one) is the one who brings him up (ch 9 pg 31), and Takeda (angry one)  even says "I didn't want to stoop to joining forces with him" (ch 9 pg 32). On ch 12 pg 31, Mikasa even says "Still lookin' ragged as usual" when he first sees him. They know him enough to criticize his looks in front of him, unlike any employer-worker relationship. "As usual" implies that they have seen each other multiple times, perhaps because they saw him grow up in Kubitachi. • Tanaka probably has a special ability. HGSN puts a lot of emphasis in the eyes, especially of those who experience the supernatural. 'Hikaru' has red pupils, Rie has a white halo around her pupil, and Asako's has multiple circles. I'm bringing this up because we never see Tanaka's eyes. Sure, it's summer and the sun is bright, but even inside a car or a house, he never takes his sunglasses off. In this promotional piece, Tanaka is grouped together with Rie and Asako, who have special abilities. As seen by Asako's grandmother, the special ability is genetic. So If Tanaka is Rie's son, it would explain why he has it. • In ch 13 pg 19, Tanaka not only recognizes who old lady Matsuura was, but even asks of Takeda's father. He knows these people by name and face, another hint that he grew up in Kubitachi. • So ch 14 pg 3, is the elephant in the room of my theory. He says that he doesn't have any spiritual intuition, which would disprove my theory he has a special ability. He also mentions that he got the scar by being to "absorbed" in his work In ch 12 pg 29, we see that Rie's son was still a small child when her husband came back (assuming this flashback is from then, when else could it be?). I doubt his father coming back is considered him being absorbed in his work. If he is saying the truth, then he is not Rie's son (but could still be from Kubitachi). However, he could be lying. The elders don't trust him, especially Takeda. In ch 14 pg 2, he even says "Don't ya go doin' somethin' strange while I'm watchin' ya". He doesn't trust this grown man enough to even leave him alone at his work!  Tanaka is just not a trustable person, even in the newest chapter, he seems to be texting a mysterious Satou person, showing that he's full of secrets. • Which actually leads me to the latest chapter! The translator has pointed out that both Tanaka and Satou are extremely common last names, and that combined with not knowing Tanaka's full name leads me to believe that that's not his real name. Why is he using an alias? I'm not so sure. A mysterious guy like him probably has many reasons to hide his real name. Maybe he doesn't want people in this town to recognize him? Obviously the elders do see to know him more than that, but not anyone else, including Rie Kurebayashi. Oof I think that's it! Would love to hear you guys' opinions, but please be nice about it😅 I seen how some of you guys tore that one hgsn reading that it was homophobic to shreds and while I disagree with op some of y'all were brutal! I mean, another day another slay ig but fr pls b nice I will cry🥺
