Where it came from
Natsu e no Tunnel, Sayonara no Deguchi Gunjou, known in English as The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes, began as a light novel written by Mei Hachimoku and illustrated by Kukka. Published in 2019, the story emerged from the popular Japanese trend of nostalgic, high-concept teen dramas that blend magical realism with emotional coming-of-age themes. The work was initially recognized for its poignant exploration of grief and time, winning the Shogakukan Light Novel Award, which paved the way for its adaptation into a manga and a celebrated animated film.
The visual identity of the series is heavily defined by Kukka’s ethereal, light-drenched illustrations. By utilizing a soft palette and intricate compositions that emphasize the interplay of light and shadow, the art captures the fleeting, bittersweet nature of the narrative's central setting: the Urashima Tunnel. This aesthetic choice resonated deeply with readers and viewers alike, grounding the fantastical premise in a tangible sense of summer nostalgia that has become a hallmark of Hachimoku’s storytelling style.
