The original is an animated science fiction film, which released in August 2009.
In Japan, it airs on terrestrial TV every summer, which makes us think that it is a typical manga for summer! It’s super popular in Japan!
The story is set in the modern world.
The main protagonist, Koiso Kenji, is a high school student with a gift for mathematics. His mathematics skill is so high that he could represent Japan at the International Mathematics’ Olympics. One day, he is offered an easy part-time job by Natsuki (who he yearns for), where “he goes to her parents’ house during the summer break.”
While staying there, Kenji receives an email with a mathematical code by a stranger. Kenji instantly notices it is the encryption and responds to the sender.
Actually, the code is…… the password, where they can hack the infrastructure of the OZ (the virtual electric space)! The sender is the AI Love Machine. The purpose of the Love Machin is to control the infrastructure of the whole world and crash the artificial satellite to the nuclear facility……!
This is how the “summer war” starts by Kenji, who takes responsibility and Natsuki’s family members, to stop the Love Machine from attacking them……!!

The original is a novel of the same name by Tsutsui Yasutaka, who is an actor as well as a novelist in Japan. It was also made into a live-action movie. In 2006, an animated science fiction romance film was released and drawn so much attention by people in all generation. This film, as well, often airs on terrestrial TV in summer.
It happened one summer day. The main protagonist is Yoshiyama Kazuko, a third grader student of junior high school.
She is a normal girl, just like other girls. One day, she passes out after she smells the lavender in the lab at school. However, due to that incident, she gets a capability of transporting back and forth through time, even though the duration time for staying there is not that long.
Why did she get the ability to transport through time? In time, she will get to know the “truth”, while transporting through time repeatedly to know the secret.
As for the animated film, the story is set 20 years after the story in this novel! The manga version which I’m sharing this time also depicts time 20 years after that, so check both the original novel and this manga! (The link shown below has the novel-version comicalized one as well!)

The best part of this manga is that all the pages are drawn in colors!
The story is set in the land of everlasting summer, Okinawa, which is located in the southern part in Japan. This is such a peaceful story of a beautifully pure blue sky and ocean, its inhabitants and a girl who lives in Okinawa.
It’s rather an illustration book than a manga, I should say. It’s the story of Okinawa’s colorful summer we can feel, watching them! Even for those who are not good at Japanese, I would recommend this! (Not so many lines but lots of beautiful images)

Nankoku Tom Sawyer
南国トムソーヤ
https://manga-republic.com/product/product_page_164144.html
This is the ultimate manga for Okinawa, full of its history, cultures, secrets and current situations!
The main protagonist, Chiharu, comes to Hateruna-jima (island), which is located in the most southern island of Okinawa. There, Chiharu meets some teenagers, Rindou or Nami, who live on the island. She gets used to living there a little by little. However, one day, her mother-in-law, visits the island, to develop the tourist resort, and she says she will bring her back to Tokyo.
People in Okinawa is puzzled with the news about the tourist resort, while Chiharu and her friends will be involved with the secret of Okinawa, regarding the “fossils of the pterosaur”, which was said to be seen by the elderly on the island.
There are many manga or anime which are set in Japanese tourist resort, Okinawa, but this one is special, full of Okinawa’s cultures and history! Even us, Japanese, can find so many new things about them especially because Okinawa’s dialect and history are very unique!

The resort in summer is not just fun……!? This manga’s got a little different taste to the attractions of the tropical country!!
Four high school girls are left stranded on a deserted island after the airplane crush.
The survival life by these four girls will begin, being struggled with lacking of food and water, full of gags and with a little serious parts……!!
When it comes to the survival-type manga, it tends to get very serious but this one is exceptional with four girls full of gagged taste, also sharing us how to survive in the deserted island! It’s like a dream-like manga, huh? The tropical country in summer…… It’s not just fun! Why don’t we enjoy learning how to survive there so we won’t be worried if we are lost in the deserted island? By the way, this was made into anime in July last year too! It’s the best manga for summer!
