Trans Megathread for the Week of December 30th, 2024 to January 5, 2025 - The Summer Hikaru Died

Here's to a new year! Here's my first mega try (also first time posting in a while due to reasons) but heya! Admittedly struggled a fair bit with self doubt and anxiety on this one as put it off for a while/other things caught up with me but I figure I'll be glad I did it once I've done it. It's kinda being done last minute though, so admittedly there's that...

I'd been intending to make the mega about something else originally when I signed up, but that would require more time on my part (and I just binge read this recently, so it all works out). Anyways, my subject of the week is The Summer Hikaru Died; it's a queer (BL) horror manga which is currently also scheduled for anime release next year (2025).

Content warnings naturally follow and further details will be spoilered.

Anyways, I should cut myself short at this (and make sure to have something properly written beforehand for next time). But anyways, thus far it's a strong recommend (if you feel alright with the content warnings) from me.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

    • At this point I genuinely wish someone would tell me to get therapy/get help/fuck off because I don't know what to do. I will only ever self isolate and I don't know how to stop.

      I am not sure what to do anymore. I am not sure what to do anymore. I am not sure what to do anymore.

      I'm fucked in the head for wanting someone to talk to. I can't start a fucking conversation to save my life. No wonder nobody talks to me. Good night, hexbear

      • I don't have much to say/that I can do (because I'm struggling a lot myself), but I really understand what you're saying here and I feel that way a lot too.

        • Big

          to both of you

          • (could commiserate a bit too if you'd like that, I had a pretty shitty day too, if not that's cool too, I don't really feel like I need to vent but idk, I got some shit too if it might make you feel better)

          • I almost forgot a made a Norm joke, this genuinely made me chuckle. The commiserating helps a bit, tbh I'm grappling with hard truths that I need to handle offline. I need to work more on handling things in general.

            The support of this community always surprises me even when I'm in a crappy mood like today though. I'm always like "this is it. the comment that gets me exiled" but I also take things too seriously
