We still don't know
the name of the
flower we saw
that day
。
Recording our feelings
綴られた僕らの気分
Tsuzurareta bokura no kibun
But I can't fill in just one blank line
どうしてか一行の 空白をうめられない
Doushiteka ichigyou no kuuhaku wo umerarenai
I place a pressed flower bookmark there
押し花の栞はさんで
Oshibana no shiori hasande
And pushed an abandoned bike with you
君と転がす使い捨ての自転車
Kimi to korogasu tsukaisute no jitensha
Let's go back to where we piled those half-forgotten bricks
忘れかけの煉瓦を 積み上げた場所にゆこう
Wasurekake no renga wo tsumiageta basho ni yukou
I run up the hill overlooking the sea
海を見渡す坂をかけのばって
Umi wo miwatasu saka wo kakenobotte
The sky is frighteningly blue and there's a soda in my right hand
こわいくらいに青い空と 右手にサイダー
Kowai kurai ni aoi sora to migite ni saidaa
But my left hand is still searching for you
左手はずっと君をさがしている
Hidarite wa zutto kimi wo sagashiteiru
And so, the present doesn't even question me about it
そうやって“今”は僕の方へ 問いつめることもなくて
Souyatte ima wa boku no hou e toitsumeru koto mo nakute
Even though we're right next to each other
まだ二人はすぐそこにいるのに
Mada futari wa sugu soko ni iru noni
Even though we're right next to each other
まだ二人はすぐそこにいるのに
Mada futari wa sugu soko ni iru noni
I'm praying that I can meet you again somehow

Careful there, Jin-tan!
Yadomi?
I-I'm fine!
Yukiatsu.
That one-piece...
It's similar to the one Menma wore.
W-Why are you dressed like that?
Uh... are you okay?
Do I look okay?
Come on, take a good look!
Hey, Yukiatsu!
Please, leave them be.
B-But...
It's his chance.
If he lets this slip, he might never...
Tsuruko...
Well?
Do I look like Menma?
You can see Menma, right?
Do I look like Menma?
Yukia—
Do I look just like her?!
It was my fault!
It was my fault that Menma died that day.
What are you talking about?
It's not your fault!
It was my fau—
I said it was my fault!
Menma wouldn't have died if I didn't say that to her.
I made Menma die!
If Menma were to appear, it should be in front of me.
Even if it's as a ghost, even if it's to curse me...
It... It should've been me!
But Menma didn't appear.
Not in front of me.
Yukiatsu...
That's why Menma isn't here anymore.
She isn't anywhere anymore!
But I'm here.
Menma says she's right here.
That again?
M-Menma's saying, "thanks for the hair clip".
She's saying, "I'm sorry".
W-Well, I don't really get it, but...
Yukiatsu?
Are you happy now?
H-Hey!
Should we let him go?
It itches.
I'll be going now.
Did you know about him?
It was just a hunch.
He's been making me follow him around after school a lot.
He pretended to buy presents for a girlfriend who can't possibly exist.
He bought a girl's white, ribboned one-piece.
Are you sure that was okay?
Yeah.
Draining an infected wound is most effective.
Though, he's rotten to the core.
If you drain all the pus, there might be nothing left.
Thank you.
"Thank you for the hair clip".
"I'm sorry".
Menma...
Wait, Jin-tan!
Jin-tan!
Wait!
Wait, Menma!
Why? I can't wait!
Jin-tan's—
Just let that idiot go!
Menma, you're not ugly.
Menma...
Here.
I thought it'd suit you.
I love you, Menma!
Sorry!
J-Jin-tan's going to leave!
M-Menma has to go chase him.
We'll talk later!
Menma...
I guess it doesn't go very well with my glasses.
Now I can't see.
Hey, Men—
Menma...
Uh... do you want to eat something?
Hmm...
Ken-chan ramen!
We don't have that.
In fact, I haven't seen them in stores recently.
Oh?
Then what should I have?
Hmm...
I'll go buy some.
Don't bother, I'll eat something we already have.
Jin-tan?
Menma passed away.
But she's right here.
At my place, not Yukiatsu's.

I don't care if she's a ghost or a hallucination.
That's what I had thought.
But...
I was just avoiding having to think about it.
It was so fun being with everyone.
It was so fun being with Jin-tan.
That's why a part of me felt that I didn't have to really think about it.
Why is Menma here?
You're way too popular.
Wow!
There wasn't any Ken-chan ramen, so I got these instead.
All of these instead?
Yeah.
Come on, sit down and—
Jin-tan, I want to talk to you about something.
Talk to me?
That can wait, Garigari-kun'll melt if you don't—
I want you to grant Menma's wish.
Why ask now ?
You know I'm doing whatever I can.
You know, a lot of things.
Yeah.
I wasn't getting depressed over it like Yukiatsu, but...
...what I can.
Yeah.
I'm a pretty busy person myself!
I don't have the time to worry about you.
Jin-tan...
I'm home!
Man, I'm beat.
Whoa, are we having a party or something?
Oh, a Garigari-kun!
How cute!
Can I have it?
Not cute...
What the hell?
Whatever I can?
How am I busy?
I eat, surf the net, sleep, game, sleep, eat...
Rinse and repeat.
But...
But...!
Episode 5
Tunnel
So I got on the train on my way back.
He apparently finishes work at seven,
so after that...
I'm so glad you're coming, Naruko.
I already counted you in, so I was wondering what to do when you texted me saying no.
Yeah, Ryou-kun would've been so mad!
Ryou has nothing to do with it.
A-Actually, I—
But seriously, you've been really cold to us recently.
We were saying maybe we'd quit being friends.
Oh Haruna, that joke's a little harsh.
Right, Naruko?
When we talk about intelligence,
we do not mean the ability to get a good score on a certain kind of test,
or even the ability to do well in school: these are at best only—
Well, the next one's in thirty minutes.
You're being how you usually are.
It's so normal, it's unsettling.
Then what do you want me to do?
Do you want me to call you a crossdresser?
Sure.
That might be better.
Can you not use me to maintain your self-esteem?
I was able to stop thanks to you.
Thanks.
So he wrote "I love you" in a text and stuff!
He's such a horny animal!
She rode the train all the way into the city and is carrying a big shopping bag.
A change of clothes, probably.
Just like you.
There are certain things one can't bear without changing one's clothes.
Wow, so good!
You're amazing!
Put in the next one, Ryou-chan.
Hurry, put it in.
Hey, don't moan like that, high schooler.
Ryou-chan, it doesn't matter what it is, just put it in!
What should I pick, then?
Are you having fun?
Haruna, calm down!
Ryou-chan, do it!
You don't seem to be enjoying yourself.
Since two girls are asking me, I guess I'll do two in a row.
Ryou-chan, are you serious?
That's not true...
All right, I'm going to do three in a row!
Let's just do that one for now!
How about we ditch them?
Ryou-kun's mine!
Sorry, Naruko-chan and I are out of here.
W-What?
Naruko-chan doesn't seem to be feeling well.
I have to wake up early tomorrow anyway.
I need to watch One Piece.
Isn't One Piece the day after tomorrow?
Is it?
You guys can't do that!
Naruko, tell us all about it later!
Let's go then.
Okay...
E-Excuse me.
Is the station this way?
I-I thought we were just going back to the station together...
Really now.
That's not what ditching means.
Besides, I drank too much.
I need to take a break .
No joke.
I really don't feel well though!
Then take a break.
A-A break?!
Oh yeah, what about One Piece?
One Piece airs the day after tomorrow.
Break
Stay
Free-Time
But didn't you say—
Why are you holding yourself back?
I know you're wearing all black underneath.
Wait...
N-No! Stop it! Don't touch me!
Yeah, yeah.
Don't "yeah yeah" me!
Let me go!
Damn you!
Let me go!
Huh? Anjou?
We're having some fun with Yadomi.
Wanna join us?
Who the hell are you?
Hey everyone, over here!
This is ridiculous...
Saving a girl who's being taken advantage of by a man...
That must have been the corniest event in my life.
That was saving me?
Shouldn't that be more like punching him and pulling me away?
I'm smart and handsome, but I'm not exactly strong.
Say what now?
Though...
It hurts to watch you.
You're one to talk!
You crossdresser!
S-Sorry.
I guess it's better if you called me that.
Are you a virgin?
W-W-W-What, is there a problem with that?
Wanna try going out with me?
D-Don't you love Menma?
That's true.
I...
I can't!
I just can't.
I mean...
Is it Yadomi?
What's so good about him?
W-What do you mean what's so good?
Don't just assume things!
I never said I love him—
He was everyone's leader.
He was smart and fit.
But that's all in the past.
W-Well yeah, but...
He can be surprisingly nice.
He looks a little like Yama-chan from Hey! Say! Jump! if he fixes his hair—
I see.
I don't know if I love him.
I just can't... get Yadomi off my mind.
Off your mind?
After Menma and his mother died, it's been kind of difficult talking to Yadomi.
I was actually a little happy that we got into the same school.
But Yadomi can't forget about Menma.
And you can't forget the Yadomi that can't forget about Menma.
Back there.
Didn't you use Yadomi's name, Yukiatsu?
You said you were having fun with him.
An express train will pass us shortly.
Please wait.
We were left behind.
All right.
Knock, knock, knock...
Ting!
Delicious!
Why are you having dinner at my house?
I supplied you with the mountain greens!
It has to be tempura for this!
Poppo is really enjoying his food!
There's food on your nose.
Oh right, is Menma here?
Yeah, Menma's right here!
Menma, have some tempura too!
D-Do you seriously believe in Menma?
I told you last time!
But...
I thought about it again.
I don't really know, but I don't think Menma being around is a good thing.
Maybe she can't go to heaven.
Is that why she's here?
Go to... heaven...
I-I don't know about that...
That...
Jin-tan?
Menma—
Is Menma right there?
W-Well...
All right.
Hey, wai—
Hi, Menma!
Can you give me just a little hint?
I'll do the knock knock ting thing.
You have a wish, right?
You can count on me too.
I want to help you go to heaven.
Hey, Hisakawa...
Come on, Menma.
Please tell me.
Like, appear in front of me too, not just Jin-tan!
No?
Hey.
That's...
Our summer together has ended

Menma also wants to talk with everyone!
I won't forget your great hopes and dreams for the future

Hey, Menma.
We'll all think about it together.
About my wish or going to heaven...
Thank you for the memories

I don't know anything!
Come on, why not?
Please, we'll all think about it!
I don't know...
Menma, then—

Can you give her a break?
