| Another great episode :) When I think about it Jinta does remind me of Ryosuke Yamada. Oh and that one guy was a creep, I would have kicked his bass. |
 |
| Well, that was a touching episode especially on Yukiasu's part. Rejected twice as a person and as a ghost ouch! Why can't Aneru just break up with those sluts? Fake friends and posers and sadly those types exists in real life. |
| Hopefully, Aneru wont mind too much about being dumped by her fake friends, as she has her old ones back now! Such convoluted love circles, almost all unrequited! That's pretty good among a group of 6! I can see why the group started to have problems as they approached adolescence! Ah! This is so engaging! |
 |
| Yukiatsu is definitely my favourite Ano Hana character. |

kaena said: btw this anime goes by so fast 20something minutes felt like 5 minutes a sign of ENJOYMENT I agree. So far so good. Nice character development. |
 |
| In fact, Anjou really had to slap that pervert. I almost regret my expectation on Yukiatsu to get my favorite character, but then he saved Anjou in a really smart way. And then, the train scene... it's hard to imagine them both being a couple, but infact... who knows, they really have the same thing in common. And Tsuruko is hot as... |
  |
| "I know she doesn't exist anymore. She doesn't exist anywhere!" "...I'm right here." T___T I actually feel for Yukiatsu, in a way... since well, losing someone who you care for and love is something that can make people do some odd things, some really odd things.. I feel bad for him, although not as much as I do for Jinta... Meritas said: And Tsuruko is hot as... You said the exact same line for the last episode, but I'm curious, what is she as hot as? XD |
| So...my prediction in the last episode topic was right. Huh. Yukiatsu felt so badly about his belief that he was the one who caused Menma's death that he spiraled into some psychological depression and then snapped and donned his Menma cosplay - trying to look like Menma so he could feel she was still with them in real life. You know, even though Yukiatsu is a creep for smelling Menma's dress and buying women's accessories and going into the night dressed as Menma - you gotta feel a little sorry for the guy, ya know? I guess if I cared soooooooooo much about someone and they suddenly died, or was so guilty about a death and snapped, who knows if I would do the same thing, too...? However, Yukiatsu redeemed himself 10-fold when he saved Anaru from that guy. And, so, Tsuruko really didn't know about Yukiatsu also - but, in the back of her mind she acutely did. Also, yes, I cried during the episode. :'C |
| I thought the same thing silky. That is some pretty fucked up psychological shit though. xD This episodes was all around messed up. I felt bad for basically every single character...minus poppo & tsuruko. btw why did she have a flower clip of her own? i didn't catch that at all. and it was all scruffed up. very interesting...i really enjoy this anime. idc how 'overrated' some may think it is or how it makes me wanna cry every episode. xD it's excellent! |
femalegoblin said: btw why did she have a flower clip of her own? i didn't catch that at all. and it was all scruffed up. I think the one that Tsuruko has is the "real one" (the one that Yakiatsu throws away when he confess to Menma). So, back then, Tsuruko in some way saw him throwing away and catch it after they were gone or something like that. The one that Yakiatsu has is a new one that he bought (on the scene that he is looking for something in the hair session). Oh my, AnoHana is so awesome and sad at the same time. Every detail breaks my heart, seriously. Like Poppo asking Menma, you can see how desperate he was to talk to her, to believe too. About Yukiatsu's confession and Menma saying "I'm sorry", it was beatiful. The fact that everybody has something hid inside of them and the way that they are showing is just "wow, sad, but not so sad and beatiful, but with moderation"... I want to see more scenes about Tsurumi, with all that "blah, I don't care" aura, I think she is the biggest "onion" on this show. haha (o￣∇￣o) |
| Good stuff, Yuikiatsu is a great character I think. You can just tell how incredibly conflicted he is. I'm really enjoying his and Anaru's subplot especially so far. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| This one had me crying and I have a feeling the rest of the series is just gonna overkill ;~; Being a person that lost her friend at a young age I truly sympathize with all of the 'team'. :'( |
| Do not feed the trolls! They bite ;D |
| Tsuruko is my favourite yet. Maybe because I can relate to her in so many ways. Yukiatsu is a bitch but I still like him. He has some issues. And oh I really hope next episode brings us joy of Menme being able to communicate with everyone else. |
 |
| Great episode~! Super emotional. Is Yukiatsu's voice Rin's from Ao no Exorcist? Why isn't Jinta fat? xD He eats, plays games, and sleeps :) Well, that wouldn't be a good main character then. Hahaa. Those high school guys act too old for their age (perverted kids much? [and not in Jinta's adorable way xD]).. Reminds me of School Days O_O. Hahaa. I think Yukiatsu is trying to pull all the people who are shaky about believing Menma so they can be against Jinta :( 5/5 |

| poor poppo, he just wants to help out. how can you help somthing that doesnt exist (for you)? |
     |
| another great emotional episode!what kinda sick bastard would try and rape someone well i guess a sick bastard would, good thing Yukiatsu was there to help her, she sure has some good friends they know what that guys intentions where and they still let her go. and that ending was just sad hope at least someone get to see menma :D |

| Lol love triangles. Sigh, everytime Menma cries, it makes me wanna cry too. :'( |
| I don't get why Menma doesn't just ring a bell or pick up objects. Somehow she can touch people, and they can feel something. |
 |
| I love the series so far, but what annoys me is Jintan himself. I mean he is so irresponsive! When Menma was trying to say she wanted to talk to them, Jintan should have said it aloud that she was trying but didn't know why she couldn't. Also, he could have said that Menma was hugging them when they felt that weight. That's the times they could actually tell she was there. And he could have also defended himself about Menma's muffins. Couldn't they tell the food in Jintans chopsticks kept disappearing though they weren't near his mouth? Because Menma was stealing it from him. Ugh, he is pissing me off... Well, right now. That's my only pet peeve with him. But otherwise I am quite attached to these characters and Jintan. And I love the intros/outros. I am totally expecting a moment in the near future where I'm going to overflow with tears. |
| These faces are so cute that I might just leave them here (#`Д´)´∀`)･ω･) ﾟДﾟ)ﾟ∀ﾟ)･∀･)￣ｰ￣)´_ゝ`) |
| What kind of preview is that oh god... This show is full of emotions. |
 Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I'm not living. |
| I feel like I wanna give an extra point just for mentioning Yamada from Hey!Say!JUMP XD that was so randomly awesome! I love HSJ! and Yamada too! |
 |
| Here's what I'll predict will happen: 1. Jinta will end up with Naruko 2. Tsurumi witl Mastuyuki 3. Menma will disappear by the end of episode 11. |
| "If you can eliminate all the other choices, the remaining choice, no matter how improbable, it is the answer."- Sherlock Holmes |
| Yukiatsu a hero for saving Anjou. |
| Menma crying is a very touching scene there! |
 |
| Didnt expect Yukiatsu would go and save Anaru! :o I was just thinking, to prove of Menma's 'existence', why not ask her to do something so Jintan can prove that Menma really is there and did make that cupcake or something! I feel kind of irritated by Menma at this point, not very sure why.. And even though I know that Poppo might not mean any harm but i guess those words were a little too much for Menma who also have no answers to those questions herself.. |
 |
| Damn what a lovely episode the ending made me cry a little :'( |
 |
| So basically only Poppo isn't in this love mess. |

 |
| excellent episode. Matsuyuki turned a 180 after that performance. so Naruko is a virgin, damn bastard trying to steal away Naruko. while i still hate Matsuyuki, at least thanks to him Naruko is safe. Naruko does love Jintan huh? i just feel bad for Naruko falling for Jintan. i mean why not me?!?! :P why did Tsurumi had a similar hair pin like Menma? is she trying to mimic her so that Matsuyuki would look at her. Poppo went to far though, we already know everyone wants to talk to Menma. can't wait for the next one, this series is too short though :\ |
| It's sad that only yadomi can see menma D: |
| Subscribe plz ^^ http://www.youtube.com/user/TheAlmeidaPT Like plz xD https://www.facebook.com/pages/Otaku-Powa/157576507666018 |
| I feel sorry for Poppo... :( |
| The scene where Yukiatsu grabs Jinta and tells him it's his fault that Menma died was so powerful. I was seriously holding back tears. It seems Tsuruko knew that he has been feeling this way. She has been with him as well when he bought the dress that looked like the one Menma had. The scene on the train was also great. Yukiatsu tells Anaru that they've been left behind, which is ironic since Yukiatsu must be near the top of his class and at a prestigious school yet he is left behind by Jinta who is basically a dropout. I will say that Menma crying at the end was a little over the top. It was a touching moment without a doubt but she's basically been crying everytime something sad happens (which is fine since it was stated that she was a crybaby) but it lost a little bit of the feeling for me seeing it so many time. Just a little though :) I hope they'll all be able to see her |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| A lot of emotion in this episode. But still it was great. And they mentioned One piece as well. |
 |
| Yukiatsu sure redeemed himself well, like the MAN he is indeed. He's no woman! Glad to see Anjou actually put up some resistance and not be like one of those ridiculous anime chicks who SOMEHOW gets NTR'd by going along even though she doesn't want it in the first place. I find it ridiculous that Menma is able to interact with her surroundings physically, won't it make it extremely easy to prove that she is there, and possibly even interacting with the rest of them? It's so painfully obvious that I'm wondering whether this plot hole would ever be resolved. |
| Best episode since the first one. yuki's scene really got to me. hes my fav character now. i loved his dialouge with anarou it was both heart warming funny and emotional. i loved the one piece reference it made me smile. so far this show is a 9 |
| Wait, so... Yukiatsu likes Menma, while also liking Anaru, Anaru and Menma on the other hand both like Jinta, and Poppo is forever alone? What a love octagon. |
 |
| Now the drama spike things up, that ending caught me off guard when Poppo is blurting out those words in front of Menma (even though he can't see or hear her). Glad that Yukiatsu saved Anaru from that person who harass her. Now I want to see her true feelings for Jintan. Everyone is very influence about Menma image, but gets a little downright from some people. Even the crossdressing Yukiatsu liked her huh... well this episode had lots of feels into it, I like to where this is going. |
| I watched the first 5 episodes of this show and i didn't wrote anything I actually love this anime..very emotional and deep i liked this episode too..Glad that Yukiatsu saved Anarou from that guy One Piece reference FTW |
| This was a much more emotional episode and the story is finally developing nicely. |
| Damn, seeing Poppo so desparate to talk to Menma was really depressing. And her crying without him noticing it... But really Menma, just make a bowl fly or something! So we got to ''solve'' the case about Yukiatsu. Man, he got rejected by the girl he loved and then she die... Same for Jin-tan, he tell her that he doesn't love that ''ugly girl'' and then hours later, she die. Fate is really a bitch, right? I was really scared when that molester forced Anaru to follow her to an hotel. What a fucker, go die in an alley, plz. |

| The story is getting pretty interesting, its nice to see Yukiatsu not acting like a jerk anymore. |
| This confirms that the One Piece fanbase consists mostly of rapists. |
 |
| I'm really liking the character interactions. They're just too gud. And I really want this to have a happy ending. :I |
| idiot. you don't ask a girl who was just about to be sexually assaulted if she wants to go out with you. there is a time and a place for things. and he's probably still in love with Menma so I don't even know if he really likes Anjou? so if it was a joke then it was even less considerate. |
