**[00:08] [SONG] ---**
nanpehji mo tsuiyashite
tsuzurareta bokura no kibun
**[00:08] ---**
All our feelings that we've written
lie across so many pages.
**[00:15] [SONG] ---**
doushiteka ichigyou no
kuuhaku wo umerarenai
**[00:15] ---**
Still, for some reason that's lost to me,
there's an empty line that I can't fill in.
**[00:22] [SONG] ---**
oshibana no shiori hasande
kimi to korogasu tsukaisute no jitensha
**[00:22] ---**
I mark it with a pressed flower bookmark,
and ride on a throwaway bicycle with you.
**[00:31] [SONG] ---**
wasurekake no renga wo
tsumiageta basho ni yukou
**[00:31] ---**
Let's go to the place we know, with all those
bricks, nearly forgot, stacked so high.
**[00:39] [SONG] ---**
umi wo miwatasu saka wo kakenobotte
**[00:39] ---**
And then we can climb the
hill that overlooks the sea.
**[00:44] [SONG] ---**
kowaikurai ni aoi sora to
**[00:44] ---**
Under a sky so blue it's almost scary,
**[00:48] [SONG] ---**
migite ni saidaa hidarite wa
zutto kimi wo sagashiteiru
**[00:48] ---**
my right hand holds cider, my left
hand extends, searching for you.
**[00:56] [SONG] ---**
souyatte ima wa boku no hou e
toitsumeru koto mo nakute
**[00:56] ---**
Just like that, the now that lives all around
us never comes to me asking questions.
**[01:03] [SONG] ---**
mada futari wa sugusoko ni irunoni
**[01:03] ---**
The two of us are standing
right here, still together.
**[01:11] [SONG] ---**
douka mata aemasuyouni nante
**[01:11] ---**
But then, to say, "I hope we meet again..."
**[01:18] [SONG] ---**
douka shiteru mitai
**[01:18] ---**
Something must be wrong with me.
**[01:45] Jinta**
*It's tomorrow.*
**[01:53] Menma**
*It's tomorrow.*
**[02:06] AnaruMom**
Are you kidding me?
**[02:07] AnaruMom**
You finally come back, only to skip
school and fart around all day!
**[02:13] Anaru**
Shut up! I can do it myself. Just get out!
**[02:16] AnaruMom**
Whatever you say.
**[02:21] Anaru**
Shut up...
**[02:24] Anaru**
Sorry. I'm sorry...
**[02:31] Anaru**
Yeah? Oh, Yukiatsu...
**[02:34] Yukiatsu**
*Poppo's holding a pep rally
tonight. You gonna go?*
**[02:37] Anaru**
I dunno.
**[02:39] Yukiatsu**
Yeah, me either. Well, why don't
we just meet up at the station?
**[02:46] Minako**
Hey, Tsurumi-san! You still
haven't changed, huh?
**[02:49] Minako**
You think you know everything there
is to know about Matsuyuki-kun.
**[02:52] Tsuruko**
He's five-foot-eleven, one hundred fifty
pounds, his favorite food is yatsuhashi...
**[02:59] Tsuruko**
He also enjoys cross-dressing.
**[03:00] Minakoandgirl**
Cross-dressing!?
**[03:02] Minako**
H-Hey! We're not done
talking to you, Tsurumi-san!
**[03:09] Yukiatsu**
Hey!
**[03:11] Tsuruko**
Ouch.
**[03:13] Yukiatsu**
You crossed the line telling
them that. Even I—
**[03:15] Tsuruko**
You're hurting me.
**[03:25] Yukiatsu**
Tsurumi...?
**[03:27] Poppo**
Go! Go! Get a move on!
**[03:30] Poppo**
We need to really go all-out
for Menma's farewell party!
**[03:33] Poppo**
It needs to be positively grandiose!
**[03:35] Menma**
I'm gonna make some tissue-paper flowers!
**[03:40] Jinta**
This is *your* party. Why are
you helping prep for it?
**[03:44] Menma**
Because it's fun!
**[03:46] Poppo**
Ohh! Good job, Menma!
**[03:48] Poppo**
Come on Jintan, don't just sit there! Make
some trash cans with the old ad inserts!
**[03:53] Jinta**
Huh? O-Oh yeah, sure. ...Trash cans?
**[03:56] Poppo**
You remember back then, how nobody
in class took me seriously?
**[04:01] Poppo**
I did stupid crap to get attention from
people. But you guys let me into your group.
**[04:07] Poppo**
When I was with you guys, I just
ended up watching you all.
**[04:13] Poppo**
I just...watched.
**[04:18] Jinta**
Poppo?
**[04:19] Poppo**
Oh! Um...
**[04:20] Poppo**
The point is, just leave everything to me!
**[04:24] Poppo**
We're sending you off with a bang!
**[04:26] Menma**
I can't wait!
**[04:27] Menma**
Heh... You're so nice, Poppo!
**[04:30] MenmaDad**
So...what do you want to do?
**[04:34] MenmaMom**
I won't go, of course.
**[04:36] MenmaMom**
How much longer will those
children go on mocking me?
**[04:42] Satoshi**
I'm going.
**[04:45] MenmaMom**
How could you!? Why, Sa-kun?
**[04:47] MenmaDad**
Hey, calm down!
**[04:49] Satoshi**
Hey, Mom...do you know how tall I am?
**[04:54] Satoshi**
I really shot up over the last year...
**[05:13] MenmaDad**
It must have been so hard.
For Satoshi...and for you.
**[05:18] MenmaDad**
I know there's no way you
could forget about Meiko.
**[05:21] MenmaDad**
That's perfectly fine. But we should all
mourn together, don't you think?
**[05:26] MenmaDad**
You, Satoshi, and me...
The three of us, together.
**[05:43] Anaru**
I wonder what's gonna happen...
**[05:45] Yukiatsu**
You mean when the fireworks go up?
**[05:47] Anaru**
Way back then, I used to imagine what
would happen if Menma disappeared.
**[05:53] Anaru**
I used to think, if Menma weren't around,
I would become Jintan's favorite.
**[06:00] Anaru**
But I was wrong.
**[06:04] Anaru**
When Menma actually did disappear...
**[06:07] Anaru**
The distance between me and Jintan
just got bigger and bigger.
**[06:11] Anaru**
The only reason we're closer now
is because Menma came back.
**[06:19] Yukiatsu**
You're not grateful for that?
**[06:21] Yukiatsu**
Never mind.
**[06:24] Yukiatsu**
Tsurumi... Hello?
**[06:26] Tsuruko**
- *Are you going to the secret base today?*
- I don't...
**[06:29] Tsuruko**
*Are you with Anjo-san?*
**[06:30] Yukiatsu**
Huh? Actually...yeah, I am.
**[06:34] Tsuruko**
Coward.
**[06:39] Anaru**
Is that Tsuruko?
**[06:40] Tsuruko**
*You said you'd get her to
heaven no matter what...*
**[06:43] Tsuruko**
Now that the time has come...you're scared.
**[06:45] Yukiatsu**
*You're wrong.*
**[06:46] Tsuruko**
How pitiful...
**[06:48] Tsuruko**
You're so scared, you're
running away from Menma,
**[06:50] Tsuruko**
and spending time with Anjo-san.
**[06:53] Tsuruko**
That way you can tell yourself you're
not the only miserable one. Right?
**[06:57] Tsuruko**
I remember now, too—what
Menma called us about.
**[07:02] Tsuruko**
She told us...
**[07:03] Tsuruko**
*She said that she wanted us all
to do something for Jintan.*
**[07:09] Anaru**
What's wrong, Yukiatsu?
What did Tsuruko—
**[07:14] Yukiatsu**
I have a favor to ask you...
**[07:16] Yukiatsu**
Listen...you're the only one
who can do it, Anaru.
**[07:28] Poppo**
Why aren't they here yet?
**[07:30] Menma**
It's okay. We'll see them tomorrow!
***SIGN*** Goodbye, Menma
**[07:33] Jinta**
Let's just get started.
**[07:35] Poppo**
I'm gonna go get them!
**[07:36] Jinta**
Huh...? Hey, Poppo!
**[07:38] Tsuruko**
Hey there.
**[07:39] Poppo**
Tsuruko!
**[07:42] Tsuruko**
I bought some snacks.
**[07:44] Poppo**
Whoa! Rock on, Tsuruko!
**[07:46] Yukiatsu**
Got drinks, too.
**[07:47] Poppo**
Ahhh! I think I'm in love, Yukiatsu!
**[07:51] Menma**
Now it's a party!
**[07:54] Poppo**
I had total faith in you guys! Man,
I am just so stoked. I'm serious!
**[08:00] Poppo**
- I love these things!
- Everyone's here.
**[08:03] Jinta**
N-Nothing...
**[08:05] Jinta**
*It felt like the end was getting closer.*
**[08:12] Poppo**
Umm, Miss Menma and the rest of us
created the Super Peace Busters—
**[08:16] Tsuruko**
Skip the intro.
**[08:17] Poppo**
Can do. So then, today's honored
guest, Miss Menma, get up here!
**[08:25] Menma**
Okay!
***SIGN*** "Thank you for doing this for me today!"
**[08:29] Menma**
And then...!
***SIGN*** "I'm going to heaven tomorrow."
***SIGN*** "I want to be friends with everyone till the end. Thank you."
**[08:46] Poppo**
That was Miss Menma with
her opening speech!
***SIGN*** Super Peace Busters
**[08:53] Poppo**
Wanna try these, Menma?
**[08:55] Menma**
They're so red! I don't like spicy
stuff. It hurts my mouth!
**[08:58] Menma**
Let's see...spiiicyyy...
**[09:00] Poppo**
Oh, they're not that spicy.
You'll be fine! Just try one...
**[09:05] Yukiatsu**
Is there no entertainment?
**[09:08] Yukiatsu**
All we're doing now is eating and drinking.
**[09:10] Yukiatsu**
This is a pep rally, right? As long as we're
all here, we should do something special.
**[09:14] Menma**
Yeah!
**[09:16] Poppo**
Entertainment, huh...?
**[09:18] Yukiatsu**
Exactly. So how about
we...reenact that day?
**[09:25] Yukiatsu**
We can reenact what happened
that day, right here.
**[09:31] Jinta**
What happened...here?
**[09:33] Tsuruko**
Yukiatasu...
**[09:35] Jinta**
That's not funny! What the
hell's the point of that!?
**[09:38] Yukiatsu**
Anaru!
**[09:45] Anaru**
H...Hey, Jintan...
**[09:48] Jinta**
Stop it!
**[09:49] Anaru**
Do you...like...Menma?
**[09:53] Jinta**
Go to hell...
**[09:55] Yukiatsu**
Say it. Menma's right here, right?
Say it loud and clear!
**[10:00] Jinta**
Yukiatsu...!
**[10:02] Poppo**
Say it...
**[10:05] Poppo**
Say it... Say it...
**[10:09] Poppo**
Say it... Say it... Say it... Say it...
**[10:16] Tsuruko**
You guys! This has gone too far!
**[10:20] Poppo**
Say it... Say it... Say it... Say it...
**[10:28] Poppo**
Say it... Say it... Say it...
**[10:33] Jinta**
I do...
**[10:36] Jinta**
I... Menma is...
**[10:39] Poppo**
Don't run away again, Jintan!
It's just gonna be the same!
**[10:56] Jinta**
*Menma didn't say a word.*
**[11:00] Jinta**
*She just...*
**[11:01] ---**
*sat there crying.*
***SIGN*** Episode 10: Fireworks
**[11:12] Tsuruko**
Stop crying, already. You're pitiful.
**[11:15] Anaru**
I know I'm pitiful.
**[11:18] Tsuruko**
It was all Yukiatsu's idea, wasn't it?
**[11:22] Anaru**
H-Hey...
**[11:25] Anaru**
Let's not do this.
**[11:29] Anaru**
We...we know the answer
already. That day—
**[11:33] Yukiatsu**
Even once Menma's gone...you're still
going to be unclear on things—lost.
**[11:37] Yukiatsu**
You'll keep losing to a Menma
that doesn't even exist.
**[11:40] Yukiatsu**
Are you really okay with that?
**[11:44] Anaru**
You don't know how it feels, Tsuruko...!
**[11:47] Anaru**
How it feels to be invisible to the
one person you love, forever—
**[11:52] Tsuruko**
I do know!
**[11:54] Tsuruko**
Because...I like Yukiatsu.
**[11:58] Tsuruko**
Yukiatsu... He's always been
chasing after Menma.
**[12:03] Tsuruko**
And I've just been watching, the whole time.
**[12:07] Anaru**
Tsuruko...
**[12:09] Tsuruko**
You don't know if it'll be forever.
**[12:12] Tsuruko**
Once Menma goes to
heaven, Yadomi might—
**[12:14] Anaru**
That's—
**[12:15] Tsuruko**
But Yukiatsu... He'll never choose
me, no matter what happens.
**[12:21] Tsuruko**
Once Menma goes to heaven, her
replacement will be you, Anjo-san.
**[12:27] Anaru**
No!
**[12:28] Anaru**
You're wrong! Replacement!?
Yukiatsu doesn't think like that!
**[12:32] Anaru**
And I don't either! No matter how much pain
I'm in, I'd never go out with Yukiatsu!
**[12:36] Anaru**
I only like Jintan! There *is*
no replacement for him!
**[12:42] Tsuruko**
That's right. There is no replacement.
**[12:46] Tsuruko**
Which is why we need to send
Menma off to heaven.
**[13:02] Poppo**
I'm sorry, Jintan...
**[13:04] Poppo**
I'm really sorry for what I did.
**[13:07] Jinta**
Poppo...
**[13:08] Poppo**
I thought...I thought we might be able
to rewind everything, you know?
**[13:14] Jinta**
*Rewind...*
**[13:16] Menma**
Hey!
**[13:18] Menma**
Did you mean it?
**[13:19] Jinta**
Huh? Well...I mean...yeah.
**[13:24] Menma**
I like you too, Jintan!
**[13:26] Jinta**
B-But my like isn't like...how
you like a friend, though.
**[13:31] Menma**
I know that! You like me like
you want to marry me, right?
**[13:37] Menma**
You know, if I had grown up
and gotten bigger normally...
**[13:41] Menma**
I wonder... Would I have
got to be your wife?
**[13:48] Jinta**
It doesn't have to be...normal.
**[13:52] Jinta**
You don't have to go to heaven...
**[13:54] Jinta**
Why don't you just stay here?
**[13:58] Menma**
Jintan...
**[14:02] Jinta**
*Well...I said it.*
**[14:12] Menma**
I have to go to heaven.
**[14:15] Menma**
You know...for reincarnation!
**[14:17] Menma**
If I don't go to heaven, I can't reincarnate.
**[14:21] Menma**
And I wouldn't be able to talk to everyone!
**[14:23] ---**
Oh, but what if I become a caterpillar?
**[14:25] Jinta**
- *Talk to...everyone...*
- Don't step on me, okay?
**[14:39] Yukiatsu**
Hey, Menma...
**[14:41] Yukiatsu**
When Jintan said he likes you...
How did you answer?
**[14:46] Yukiatsu**
*No...*
**[14:48] Tsuruko**
*She said that she wanted us all
to do something for Jintan.*
**[14:51] Yukiatsu**
*I already know her answer.*
**[14:53] Jintan**
I... Menma is...
**[14:55] Yukiatsu**
*I've always known the answer.*
**[14:59] Yukiatsu**
I'm done... Yeah.
**[15:02] Yukiatsu**
Let's send you to heaven. Okay...Menma?
**[15:15] Jinta**
Am I not enough for you, Menma...?
**[15:35] Touko**
Menma-chan...do you know
about reincarnation?
**[15:39] Menma**
Reincarnation?
**[15:40] Touko**
That's right. Even when your life comes to an
end, you can return to this world as a baby.
**[15:49] Touko**
And not just a human baby.
Maybe a baby kitty...
**[15:52] Touko**
Or maybe even a baby flower!
So it's not sad at all.
**[15:58] Menma**
Wow! Cool!
**[16:01] Touko**
But there is one thing...
**[16:04] Touko**
Just one thing...
**[16:17] Menma**
Jintan's mom...can you
wait just a little longer?
**[16:21] Menma**
They all want to show me the fireworks...
**[16:23] Menma**
Just a little bit longer...
**[16:33] OldDude**
Okay. First we gotta add the decorations.
**[16:36] Poppo**
- Piece of cake!
- Decorations!
**[16:53] Jinta**
*Menma...*
**[16:55] Tsuruko**
Sorry I'm late!
**[16:59] Yukiatsu**
Huh? Tsurumi?
**[17:02] Menma**
Ahh, so cute! Tsuruko, you look just
like you did when you were little!
**[17:07] Anaru**
- What's with the hair?
- I just felt like it.
**[17:13] Tsuruko**
- That's a lie.
- No duh.
**[17:17] Poppo**
Jintan!
**[17:19] Poppo**
Can you hold that side?
**[17:21] Jinta**
- Like this?
- Ready? Go!
**[17:28] Satoshi**
Hello.
**[17:30] Jinta**
O-Oh! Thanks for coming!
**[17:36] Satoshi**
Huh...?
**[17:37] Jinta**
What's up?
**[17:39] Satoshi**
Oh, something just smelled really
familiar for a second...
**[17:45] Menma**
Jintan, did you invite Sa-kun?
**[17:47] Jinta**
Well, um...yeah.
**[17:53] Menma**
Thank you, Jintan...
**[17:55] Poppo**
Jintan?
**[17:56] Jinta**
Oh, sorry.
**[17:58] Jinta**
*This is really the end, huh?*
**[18:03] Poppo**
Ready, and!
**[18:04] All**
Go!
**[18:10] Anaru**
*This is right, isn't it?*
**[18:13] Anaru**
*What Menma wants and what
we want are the same...*
**[18:18] Poppo**
*She's going to heaven, no matter what.*
**[18:20] Jinta**
*I...I can still stop this.*
**[18:24] Yukiatsu**
Yadomi?
**[18:26] Yukiatsu**
This will make Menma happy, right?
**[18:28] Jinta**
Y-Yeah...
**[18:32] Yukiatsu**
*I won't let him ruin this.*
**[18:36] Jinta**
*I can still stop this.*
**[18:40] Jinta**
*I can...but...*
**[18:42] Menma**
I have to go to heaven.
**[18:48] Poppo**
Pull! Pull! Pull! Pull! Pull!
**[18:56] Menma**
Wow! Sa-kun's so strong!
**[18:59] Yukiatsu**
Yadomi?
**[19:12] Yukiatsu**
Now all that's left is to light it.
**[19:14] OldDude**
Well done, kids.
**[19:16] Poppo**
S-So...any parting words?
**[19:20] Yukiatsu**
Remember, her brother's here.
**[19:21] Poppo**
O-Oh yeah...
**[19:24] Poppo**
It'll be kinda one-sided, but...
**[19:27] Poppo**
I had so much fun! Thanks for everything!
**[19:31] Menma**
Poppo...
**[19:33] Poppo**
You're up, Jintan.
**[19:44] OldDude**
Okay, we better get started. We'll annoy the
whole neighborhood if it gets too late.
**[19:48] Jinta**
Oh, s-sure!
**[19:50] Poppo**
Jintan...
**[20:01] Jinta**
*Is this right?*
**[20:03] Jinta**
*I can still stop this.*
**[20:14] Jinta**
*Stop this...*
**[20:20] Jinta**
Wai—!
**[20:33] Jinta**
*The rocket... It's gone.*
**[21:00] Menma**
Wow! A flower bloomed up in the sky!
**[21:07] Menma**
Huh? What the...?
**[21:10] Jinta**
Menma...
**[21:12] Yukiatsu**
She's here...?
**[21:15] Yukiatsu**
Hey! Is she still here!?
**[21:18] Yukiatsu**
- Hey, Yadomi! Jintan!
- *I'm sorry, Menma...*
**[21:21] Jinta**
*At that moment, I was...*
**[21:24] Jinta**
*I was happy you were still there.*
**[21:27] ---**
**[21:28] Jinta**
ED
**[21:29] [SONG] ---**
aah hanabi ga yozora
kirei ni saite chotto setsunaku
**[21:29] ---**
Ahh, fireworks bloom in the sky, they grow
lovely and full, and yet a bit sad.
**[21:36] [SONG] ---**
aah kaze ga jikan to tomo ni nagareru
**[21:36] ---**
Ahh, just like a summer breeze,
our time is passing by.
**[21:42] [SONG] ---**
ureshikutte tanoshikutte
bouken mo iroiro shitane
**[21:42] ---**
You gave me happiness, and excitement too.
We went on many, many adventures...
**[21:50] [SONG] ---**
futari no himitsu no kichi no naka
**[21:50] ---**
In the secret base that belonged
just to you and me.
**[21:57] [SONG] ---**
kimi to natsu no owari shourai no yume
**[21:57] ---**
And I will not forget the summer
days we spent together,
**[22:01] [SONG] ---**
ohkina kibou wasurenai
**[22:01] ---**
sharing all the dreams
and hopes in our lives.
**[22:04] [SONG] ---**
juunengo no hachigatsu mata
deaeruno wo shinjite
**[22:04] ---**
And in another August ten years from now,
I trust I'll get to see you one more time.
**[22:11] [SONG] ---**
kimi ga saigomade kokoro kara
**[22:11] ---**
And till the very, very end
I was sure, I knew
**[22:14] [SONG] ---**
arigatou sakendetakoto shittetayo
**[22:14] ---**
that you were crying out "thank you"
from the bottom of your heart.
**[22:18] [SONG] ---**
namida wo koraete egao
de sayonara setsunai yone
**[22:18] ---**
So now we're smiling and holding back tears;
it's just too sad to have to say goodbye.
**[22:25] [SONG] ---**
saikou no omoide wo
**[22:25] ---**
To our memories...our fondest memories.
