-->--'''Shizuku Hoshikawa''', narration at the end of Chapter 1
''The Summer You Were There'' is a YuriGenre manga by Yuama.
Shizuku Hoshikawa is a first-year in high school who is withdrawn from others and suffers from severe self-loathing. When she goes to throw out a novel manuscript, her classmate Kaori Asaka picks it up and happens to like it. Upon hearing that Shizuku doesn't plan on writing any more, she suggests that Shizuku write a love story with them, with them playing at being a relationship for the duration of the summer. Shizuku hesitantly accepts, not knowing that both she and Kaori will have to confront each other's darkest secrets.
!The manga contains examples of:
*AffectionateNickname:
**Kaori's friends Ruri and Seri call her "Kao-chan," and her parents also used to call her "Kao."
**Kaori calls her younger sister Shiori "Shio," based on her own nickname.
*ApologizesALot: Ruri tends to respond to any criticism or insults by apologizing.
*ArmorPiercingQuestion: After Shizuku tells Kaori that she's afraid she'll end up unwittingly hurting her the same way she hurt Ruri, Kaori asks the following question, which forces her to acknowledge that she does enjoy being around Kaori.
-->'''Kaori''': What about you? How do you feel? Do you hate being with me?
*ArmorPiercingResponse: After Shizuku justifies her mistreatment of Ruri, Seri gives a response that triggers Shizuku's HeelRealization.
-->'''Seri''': Oh yeah...? So that's how you're bullying Ruri.
*BlatantLies:
**After Shizuku gets home from the aquarium date with Kaori soaking wet and clearly upset, her sister Shizuka asks if something happened. Shizuku says "It's nothing," and Shizuka replies, "Like hell it is!"
**Shortly before the outing late in August, Kaori claims that her doctors think that her getting some fresh air will be good for her. Shizuku realizes that Kaori's condition has not improved in the slightest.
**During the group outing to Enoshima, Kaori asks Shizuku and Ruri to get her a drink, resulting in the two having a heart-to-heart talk. Shizuku thanks Kaori, who, in a bit of customary self-deprecation, claims she didn't do anything. Shizuku smiles and thinks "Liar."
*BluntYes:
**At the start of Chapter 3, after Kaori and Shizuku enter a temporary fake relationship, Kaori comes over to Shizuku's house uninvited after calling her first thing in the morning.
-->'''Shizuku''': Are you planning on coming over? [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Every? Single? Day]]?\\
'''Kaori''': Hm? Yep! I mean, that's what couples do, right?
** After Shizuku encounters Seri and Ruri in the hospital, the former pulls her aside to talk with her. Shizuku is confused as to why Seri would take the time to tell her about Kaori's condition.
-->'''Shizuku''': I thought you hated me, Ichihara-san.\\
'''Seri''': I do.
*BothSidesHaveAPoint: In the conflict between Shizuku and her former friend/bullying victim Ruri, both sides' perspectives are presented as valid. Shizuku feels terrible about bullying Ruri, to the point of being suicidally depressed, and even Ruri has to acknowledge Shizuku has changed for the better. On the other hand, Ruri was traumatized by Shizuku's bullying, Shizuku's apology reopens old wounds and Shizuku realizes that no matter how sorry she feels for herself, she hurt Ruri. Shizuku and Ruri's mutual friend Kaori sympathizes with Shizuku enough to convince her to apologize, but while she hopes Ruri can get over her trauma, she tells Ruri that she is under no obligation to forgive Shizuku.
*TheBully: The reason Shizuku hates herself so much is because she bullied Ruri in elementary school. At first, it started out as bluntly insensitive remarks about Ruri falling behind in school, but then escalated to blaming Ruri for holding the class back and culminated in Shizuku pushing Ruri over while she was carrying a large pot of curry, an incident that much of the school witnessed.
*BullyingTheDisabled: It turns out that Ruri's constant absences from school, and her resulting difficulties with academics and athletics, which led to Shizuku bullying her, were due to a medical condition that she got under control by the time she reached adolescence. Shizuku feels even worse about her behavior after learning this.
*ChekhovsGunman: Seri is introduced in the flashback of Shizuku bullying Ruri, and slaps Shizuku.
*CliffHanger:
**Chapter 5, the end of the first manga volume, ends with Kaori telling Shizuku that she always knew about Kaori being a bully in elementary school.
**In Chapter 14, after Ruri and Seri leave following Shizuku's attempted apology to Ruri, Kaori collapses.
**In Chapter 15, when Shizuku is visiting Kaori in the hospital, the latter suddenly decides to break up long before the agreed-upon end to their relationship at the end of the summer.
**In Chapter 30, Shizuku gets a call from Seri informing her that [[spoiler:Kaori's condition took a turn for the worse and she is now on the operating table]].
*CoolBigSis:
**Shizuku's older sister Shizuka is rather kind and supportive of her.
**Kaori is also quite close with Shiori, to the point that Shiori feels threatened by Shizuku's closeness wih Kaori. Shizuku notices that Kaori's profile picture is one of herself and her sister, and she didn't even change it after starting her "relationship" with Shizuka.
*DrivenToSuicide: Shizuku was planning on killing herself once she was finished with her story.
*EstablishingCharacterMoment: Seri is first introduced in a flashback, slapping Shizuku for bullying Ruri. This shows how protective she is of Ruri and her hatred for Shizuku.
*ExtremeDoormat:
*FestivalEpisode: In Chapter 10, Kaori and Shizuka put on yukatas and go to a festival with fireworks.
*FullNameBasis: Shiori calls Shizuka by her full name while raging at her when Shizuku comes to visit.
*HidingBehindYourBangs: Shizuku has long bangs, indicative of her withdrawn nature.
*ImproperlyParanoid: Because of her deep-seated guilt, Shizuku comes to some unreasonable conclusions about people, although she never acts on them. For example, she thinks that Kaori is conspiring with Ruri to get revenge on her for her bullying, or that Seri was maliciously lying when she told Shizuku about Kaori's respiratory disease.
*InnocentlyInsensitive: Kaori proposes that Shizuka upload her novel to a web novel site, unaware that when she did so, she ended up getting a rather extreme backlash due to inadvertently making her novel resemble a real incident.
*InternetJerk: When Shizuku uploaded her novel online, many of the comments were extremely negative, with some demanding that she quit writing or even ''kill herself''.
*JerkassToOne: Seri is noticeably harsher with Shizuku than she is with other people, due to hating her for bullying Ruri.
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Seri can be rather sharp-tongued, especially to Shizuku, but she's a loyal friend to Ruri.
*LoveEpiphany: In Chapter 21, when Shizuku is talking with Shiori about how important Kaori is to her and how much she doesn't want to lose her, she realizes that she loves Kaori.
*NiceGirl: Kaori's positivity may be an act, but she's a selfless girl who puts others before herself.
*OneHeadTaller: Shizuku is one of the tallest high schoolers, with her standing a full head taller than Kaori and Ruri. In the latter case, she's still slightly taller than Ruri when bowing to apologize.
*RejectedApology: In Chapter 14, Shizuku goes to apologize to Ruri. Seri is hostile to Shizuku from the very start and refuses to accept the apology. While Ruri is more polite about it, she tells Shizuku that seeing her is reopening her old wounds, and she wants nothing more to do with her.
*SignificantNameShift: Shizuku called Ruri "Ruri-chan" back in elementary school, but switches to the more formal "Ichinose-san" when they meet again in the present day out of politeness and the acknowledgment that they're no longer friends. However, she does refer to her as "Ruri-chan" in her thoughts and when talking with Kaori, and switches back after Ruri expresses a desire to get to know her.
*StepfordSmiler: Kaori seems cheerful at first glance, but while she is genuinely good-natured, she hides her vulnerability from others.
*{{Tsundere}}: Kaori's sister Shiori is this toward Shizuku, according to Kaori. While she had spent much of Shizuku's visit angrily ranting at her, she privately told Kaori that Shizuku was a nice person.
*WebcomicTime: The series is a monthly webcomic published over the course of multiple years, but takes place over the course of a single summer vacation- late July to the beginning of September, or just over a month.
*WhamLine:
**Shizuku is shocked when Kaori takes Shizuku's confession to being a bully in elementary school surprisingly well, but then Kaori explains why.
-->'''Kaori''': I already knew everything.
**In Chapter 15
-->'''Kaori'''': Hey... [[YouCalledMeXItMustBeSerious Hoshikawa-san]]. We should break up. Let's put an end... to this pretend romance.
*WhamShot: In Chapter 10, as Shizuku wonders if Kaori had fun at the festival, Kaori is shown in her room, gasping for breath and coughing, with medications on her bed.
*YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Kaori tells Shizuku that while she might have been a bully, the fact that she regrets it and is punishing herself shows that she's not as despicable as she thinks she is.
