Hikari-Man
Hikari-Man (stylized in all caps) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Hideo Yamamoto. It was serialized in Shogakukan's seinen manga magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits from December 2014 to June 2020, with its chapters collected in eight tankōbon volumes.
Shirochi Hikari (白池 光, Hikari Shirochi) is a socially isolated otaku obsessed with fighting games and PC modding. Academically average and physically weak, he suffers from electromagnetic hypersensitivity, often forcing him into the school infirmary. Ostracized by peers, he escapes into building and modifying computers—until a static shock violently ejects his consciousness into his PC, granting him the ability to travel through electrical currents. Now, he must choose to use his power for good, or take revenge on his tormentors.
Written and illustrated by Hideo Yamamoto, Hikari-Man was serialized in Shogakukan's seinen manga magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits from December 8, 2014, to June 22, 2020. Shogakukan collected its chapters in eight tankōbon volumes, released from February 27, 2015, to September 11, 2020.
In June 2024, Seven Seas Entertainment announced that it had licensed the manga for English release in North America and would release the series in a 2-in-1 omnibus edition, with the first volume published on December 17 of that same year.
Hikari-Man was one of the Jury Recommended Works at the 23rd Japan Media Arts Festival in 2020.
