What is The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes about?
The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes is based on a Japanese light novel written by Mei Hachimoku and illustrated by Kukka, which was originally published in July 2019. Since then, the light novel has received a manga adaptation, which has been going since July 2020, as well as the planned film.
“One summer morning before school, Kaoru hears an unsettling rumor — of a mysterious tunnel that can grant any wish to those who enter it, but ages them dramatically in exchange,” reads the official synopsis for the light novel.
