Jintan, you like Menma, right?

Huh?

L-Let's play hide-and-seek!

Come on! Let's decide who's it.

Rock, paper, scissors!

Just spit it out.

You're the one who said no secrets

in the Super Peace Busters, Jintan.

Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it!

Come on, say it, Jintan.

Yukiatsu, Poppo, stop it.

Aw...

You're bothering Menma, too.

Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it!

Who would like someone that ugly?!

I thought she would start crying.

Because Menma was a crybaby.

But she just smiled like she usually did.

Wait, Jintan!

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow.

I thought, "I'll just apologize tomorrow."

But...

Jintan!

M-Menma...

Huh?

Menma!

Menma! Menma!

Menma! Menma!

Menma! Menma! Menma!

Menma!

Menma! Menma!

Menma!

Menma!

Menma!

Menma!

Menma!

Menma!

But, that day...

Menma!

Its tomorrow never came.

That's right.

Menma died... because of me.

And yet, you have the nerve to bring it up.

Unbelievable.

Daddy, I'm home.

Who left the window open?

Hey, Satoshi.

I don't know.

Sa-kun, you've grown so much!

Meiko, curry's ready.

Mommy! I'm home...

I cut the carrots big for you today.

Would you stop talking to Nee-chan

every time you make curry,

and offering it to her?

It's annoying.

Your sister always was

a bit off, wasn't she?

Maybe she doesn't even realize

that she's dead yet.

Would you stop already?!

Satoshi. Don't talk to

your mother like that.

Is it good, Meiko?

Mommy...

Even I realize...

...that I'm dead.

Jintan! Jintan! Jintan!

Where are you?!

Jintan!

Jintan, where did you go?

Jinta

Jintan?

Menma.

Menma, who cares about Jintan?

But...

You're not ugly, Menma.

I thought this would look good on you.

It's for you.

Because I love you, Menma!

I have to go find Jintan.

Jintan!

Jintan, where are you?

I'm here again.

Welcome back.

It looks like you

might be the only one who can see me.

Just me?

That's Lickachu, right?

Right?

Congratulations!

You have captured the rare Lickachu!

"Lick Lick Beam'

"Lip Breaker"

"Mostopuchucula"

Captured by Jinta

at Lv. 5

Why'd you get it?

Menma's Wishlist!

- The rare Lickachu

- The infinity symbol in fireworks

You wanted one as a kid,

so I caught it for you.

Thank you, Jintan.

Hm? What?

Don't you, like, disappear

when your wish comes true?

I guess I'm still here.

Maybe we have to get everybody together.

Who cares about those guys?

I'm the only one who can see you, right?

Yeah.

It's just like I'm playing hide-and-seek.

It wouldn't be surprising

if no one ever found me.

But you found me, Jintan.

And that's enough for me.

You're hopeless. I'll find out

your wish, and grant it for you.

Give me that.

I don't expect to be forgiven for

what I did that day just by apologizing.

Here I go!

That's why I...

Menma...

Why are we going to buy fireworks?

Did you forget?

You said you wanted to draw the infinity

symbol with fireworks before.

What's this?

A circle...

And a circle!

Bzz!

Oh, is that the infinity symbol?

What's infinity?

You don't know? It means to go on forever.

So this is like... About

the Super Peace Busters!

It means we'll be friends

forever and ever, right?

Jintan, I wub you! I wub you!

Poppo, you're gross!

Poppo, stop it!

Jintan, I wub you!

Hey, stop! Stop!

Ryuuseikai

It's the Ryuusei Festival! I went

to see it with my family before.

Hey, why don't we use these fireworks?

How are we supposed to draw the

infinity symbol with fireworks that big?

Ryuusei

It Rises Powerfully,

Like a Dragon

Don't be absurd, now.

Ryuusei

It Rises Powerfully,

Like a Dragon

Exciting

Summer Fireworks Set

Here. You drink the rest, Jintan.

When should we set off the fireworks?

How about tonight, in my yard?

Yay!

I wonder which one I should shoot first...

Chichibu City

The sparklers have to be last.

Jintan!

That's Poppo?

No way! He's gotten so big!

Poppo!

Hey, that's my... Hey!

Holy crap. I totally saw it last night.

I totally saw Menma's ghost, too.

But this is the first time

I've seen Poppo again.

What was she wearing?

That white dress she used to

wear in summer all the time.

He's right, huh?

Wow, the park!

It's Yukiatsu! Tsuruko's there, too!

I saw your email.

What's the point of sending us this?

Mail 3

Hisakawa Tetsudou

Tsurumi Chiriko Matsuyuki Atsumu Anjou Naruko Yadomi Jinta

Found Menma!

Meet up at the base tonight!

Poppo

The point is I totally saw her!

Hey, let's all go look for Menma tonight.

Give me a break.

Menma said that herself.

Huh?

Actually, I saw Menma's ghost, too.

You, too?

Quit with the bizarre jokes.

Menma was really grossed out by you.

Spending years depressed,

and never getting over it...

You need to stop obsessing

over Menma and forget her.

Everyone else has done that and found peace.

I have a favor to ask,

in regards to Yukiatsu.

This is a job for the Super Peace Busters.

We're going to bust some fake peace tonight.

Crackle, crackle, woosh!

Crackle, crackle, woosh!

Ba-bam!

I wonder where Jintan went.

You'll look for Menma with us?

Yes. I won't know if it's true or not

unless I see for myself.

Well, yeah...

Anaru!

What's wrong?

Menma?

Was that Menma?

It's Menma.

Menma!

Wait!

Menma, wait!

Crackle, crackle, woosh!

The secret base.

Jintan!

Huh?

No one's here.

This is so nostalgic.

Menma!

Where are you?

I'll go around from this side.

Yeah.

Menma, wait!

Can the others actually see her?

Menma!

Damn it. Where'd she go?

Menma!

At your height,

even if you shave your legs,

you're not fooling anyone, Yukiatsu!

Huh?

Yukiatsu!

Why?

I knew it. The Menma ghost that Poppo saw

is right in front of us.

It was Yukiatsu in a dress.

What is this?

You're the one who said

to forget about Menma.

He lied about forgetting Menma

and living in peace.

The one to dwell on this the most

Seriously?

Are you all right?

Hey, stop, Yukiatsu!

Poppo. Let him get this out.

Hey.

Don't you want to see Menma?

I want to see her so bad.

You guys want to see her, too, right?

So I thought I'd let you see her.

Yukiatsu...

And yet...

And yet why are you the only

one who gets to see Menma?!

That's not fair!

It's probably...

...because she has a grudge.

If that's the case,

she should be showing herself to me!

On that day...

If I hadn't said that...

I thought this would look good on you.

It's for you, Menma.

Because I love you, Menma!

Menma!

Because I...

...upset her back then...

She...

I'm the one who killed Menma!

I killed her!

I killed Menma!

Menma!

That's enough, Yukiatsu.

Let go of me! I said, let go of me!

Yukiatsu...

Wh-Wha...

Infinity...

Menma?

Menma...

Yukiatsu.

Menma says, "Thank you for

the hair clip. I'm sorry."

Is Menma really there?

Hey, Menma. Where are you?

Stop hiding, and come out!

Show yourself to me, too!

Come on, Menma! Please!

I've wanted to see you forever!

Come on! Don't be so mean!

Menma, please!

Come on! I've wanted to see you for so long!

Come on!

Menma, where are you?!

Answer me!

Let's go home.
