The Summer Hikaru Died episode 3: A brief recap

Ad

After a brief flashback from Hikaru and Yoshiki's childhood, the episode began with Yoshiki arriving at Hikaru's house with a watermelon. Still grappling with Hikaru's death, Yoshiki was seen reminiscing. As Yoshiki texted Rie, he was called to the kitchen by Hikaru's mother. Meanwhile, Hikaru woke up and saw the message on Yoshiki's phone.

Later, when Yoshiki met Rie, he told her everything regarding the new "Hikaru" and what exactly happened. As they talked further, Rie insisted that all the strange new occurrences were due to whatever this "Hikaru" was, and that it had all started after the latter's transformation. She further warned Yoshiki to stay away from Hikaru as it was dangerous.

As Yoshiki was seen having second thoughts in the classroom and trying to avoid Hikaru, the latter found him. While Hikaru tried to persuade Yoshiki to go back home together, Yoshiki kept refusing. After a heated argument, "Hikaru" understood that this was all because he was not the real person.

Losing control, "Hikaru" attacked Yoshiki, but soon realized what he was doing and stopped. Hikaru then grabbed his bag and went out silently, leaving Yoshiki alone in the classroom. The next day, when Hikaru missed school, Yoshiki rushed to his house and made amends with him.
