Hikari's Lonely Hero is a lonely magical boy, the last boy on the planet, destined to save the world from humanity. The character made his first appearance in Hikari's 2011 painting entitled "Lonely Hero", and has been a fixture in her work ever since. Obake, the Japanese word for "ghost", is his friendly counterpart, a spirit representing the human race.
