Lychee Light Club (Japanese: ライチ☆光クラブ Hepburn: Raichi☆Hikari Kurabu?), also commonly known as Litchi Hikari Club, is a Japanese horror manga series written and illustrated by Usamaru Furuya and based on a play of the same name. It was serialized in Ohta Publishing's Manga Erotics F magazine between May 2005 and May 2006. A prequel to the original story, Our Light Club (ぼくらの☆ひかりクラブ Bokura no☆Hikari Kurabu?), was serialized in Ohta Publishing's online pocopoco magazine between April 2011 and March 2012.
A comedic anime adaptation aired between October and November 2012 on Tokyo Metropolitan Television. The series' visual and style also inspired the formation of a rock band in 2011. Three stage plays have also been performed in 2012, 2013 and 2015 and a live-action film was released in 2016.
The story centers around a nine-member club of middle school boys called the Light Club, in their endeavor to create an AI in order to abduct beautiful girls. As the club uses increasingly depraved methods to reach their goal, the original leader, Tamiya, tries to reclaim his position after he becomes unhappy with the way the new leader, Zera, runs the club.
