I really want to see that part and that confession of Yukiatsu.zimno said: AAAAAAAAnaru!!!!! T_T preview:http://www.anohana.jp/story/05.html it will be a BFD for Japan otaku... Also, the Anjou in front of the love hotel thing. oh boy, is she really that emotionally fragile she'd resort to that? Yeah, you got a point there. It's no coincidence that the directors showed the Bakainu Futago, her slutty friends, annoyance at Anjou's distant behavior. This anime is good at giving hints of what's about to come. |

werr-y said: I honestly didn't think I'd like this anime as much as I do now... I gave it a shot on a whim, I really didn't think I would fall in love with it the way I have. To be fair, it does take a low blow to the nostalgia of anyone from the 150 Pokemon generation. |
| Aw, I was hoping that the big secret would have been a little better. Oh well. I don't know what I was expecting. It's still a good show, though. Yet at the same time it's still not quite as great as the first two episodes. |

Well, what exactly went downhill? I'd like to hear your thoughts as, objectively, it's only getting better. I rewatched episode 4, and it wasn't as bad as I initially thought. I think it's because I was tired and really agitated when I watched episodes 3 and 4, and the negative criticism all the characters (especially the condescending characters and the reactions of the characters being looked down on) had made me feel even worse. When I rewatched it, I was feeling much more calm and unbiased. Note to self, don't watch serious shows while pissed. |
| I'm glad the guy was found it, can't stand him. Good episode for Chiriko, I didn't see enough of her to have an opinion, but I kinda like her now. Jinta is making good progress, I hope he keeps it up. It's also nice to have Menma interact (even in a limited way) with others. 4/5. |
| Ok......this guy clearly has some issues. Damn these episodes are always great 4.5 |
| Although i was annoyed first at him yukiatsu is unexpectedly silly and cute. |
| Loved her "Mario Menma and Luigi Menma" comment lol. Jeez, Menma really holds a friggin huge influence over their lives. |
| O______________________________O What? Looking forward to the next!..? |
| Ok its official...Yukiatsu REALLY has some issues... Lol at Mario reference...this anime is just so awesome! |
 |
| Wow Always knew Yukiatsu was a freaking nut job. Anaru's friends are a bunch of bitches, thats what they are |
| LOL. Mario and Luigi Menma |
| Crossdressing... ==" umm.. Yeah pretty sad episode... |
Lulexiaa said:  LOOK WHO IS TALKING YOU FREAK!!! I thought it was too weird to be true!!!! BUT OH MY GOD!!!!! ITS OFFICIAL!! YUKIATSU IS A FREAK!!!!!!!! He is a freak period. Guess he should have been in hourou musuko ANOTHER GREAT EPISODE :D |
 |
| Ewww. Crossdressing = You're doing it wrong Yukiatsu. |
| Ha! And I thought Jinta was taking it hard about Menma! I guess Tukiatsu was really hiding some demons in his closet! More! |
 |
| Lol WHAT. That was kind of ridiculous XD I know they wanted to portray Yukiatsu as someone unhealthily obsessed with his dead crush, to the point of crossdressing, and show his desperation and insecurities...but it really seemed unnecessarily creepy and absurd. |

| FUCKING LOL. The second I saw his face, I died laughing. I wanted to like him. I mean, he's the pretty boy of this show. I have to like the pretty boy. But holy shit, he's creepy. |
 |
| This is so stupid... |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| When Anaru almost fell, before Jintant could catch her I thought “Awh, come on, we don’t need another dead Menma!” And whoah! She really almost fell in the same river :O Then Anaru made me really sad and almost made like her... what am I talking about, I liked her at this moment – she asked Jintan to be nicer with Menma, because she knows how it feels like when Jintan is harsh with her =\ Menma was really kawai when she made the Mario and Luigi(Menma) refference.. And I have no words for the cross-dresser... just when I thought he might end up as character I'll actually like. Tsuruko is the smartest character this far. And she's hot as... |
  |
| That dude is pretty weird, huh? I don't particularly like him, but he's interesting.. in a weird sort of way xD |
| remember seeing a movie that shows a guy dress like his dead wife becasue he cant forget her, this is love... i like how the way they all end up in the forest together again, but still cant figure out what Menma really is |
| Loving this Anime! Maybe in the end it'll jump into my favorites....? Anyways, best song set in an Anime yet for me. Love both the opening and ending themes and the scenery. And, right now, Poppo and Menma is my favorite character. Poppo is just so funny& weird and Menma is so innocent <3 But, yeaaaah, I wasnt really shocked when it was revealed that Yukiatsu was cros-dressing as Menma. But, that's because I peeked at a spoiler in the last topic. *cough*whichshowsmtonotlookatthemever*cough* But, I think he has major psychological problems. He probably never addressed Menma's death and how much it affected him until it was too late and then he became obsessed with Menma and wanting "to preserve their friendship" or something close to it. Or, he was the one who had tripped or bumped Menma which caused her to fall into the river But, can't wait to watch more =3 |
| wtf lol he got a hobby alrite |

| I was kinda sad the entire ep, but when I saw the crossdressing... I laughed. I think he has some serious psychological problems. |
| Wow, I watched the first three episodes of this show about a month ago and at the beginning of this episode I was wondering why the hell I had waited so long to watch the next episode. I was wrapped up in other animes and just never got around to it. The beginning when Yukiatsu & Jintan were arguing and little Menma got involved kind of made me cry. But the end...THE END just left me brutally confused. Seriously WHATTHEFUCK!? I definitely ended up laughing as well but still what the fuck is wrong with that guy? It's 100% creepy and I don't see how he'll be able to justify this at all... |
| Yukiatsu (sp?) was crossdressing as Menma talk about obsessed to take it that far. Poor guy. )= |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Fantastic episode. I honestly thought the cross dressing was strange at first but the more I think about it the more it makes sense. Yukiatsu just cannot let Menma go, so he tries to get as close to her as he possibly can by dressing as her. At least that is what I think so far. Fucking great series, so far. |

| About 5 minutes in I realized that Yuki was dressing up as Menma. :c <|3 |
| Do not feed the trolls! They bite ;D |
| If Menma can knock over a cup at her house and open the door, Why why oh WHY can't she simple poke or push her friends to make them realize of her presence? =_= Anyways, I likey. After being off anime for a year, I hope this doesn't get me addicted back. Reminds me of Clannad a lot. Something good in many seasons. Lol shaved legs and imitating girls. Guy's weird or what? |
 |
| Yukiatsu is really obsessed with Menma.... Creepy fellow... |
| Wow. I would have NEVER thought that Yukiatsu dressed up as Menma and ran around (xD). I'm so happy Jinta's Menma is the only 'real' one!! Naruchan said: I don't think Yukiatsu is creepy or a freak. I just think it's sad and/or sweet depending on his reasons for it. There are a lot of people who dress in their spouses clothing when they pass away. Perhaps Yukiatsu is transgender or grieving, or both. I don't think that makes him a creepy freak. My feelings exactly :) He just doesn't miss her in the same way as the others though; I think he has his own thoughts about Menma that'll probably be revealed soon. :)) 5/5 - Love THIS show! |
| lol this is gonna be awkward now. but naruko sure is getting better, she's been avoiding those stupid girls more and more, though its always been for a reason, shehasnt ditched them becuz she felt like it. |

| I knew Yukiatsu was creepy but this was way over the top. Borderline insane. |

| yeah its weird that Yukiatsu dressed as menma but maybe that's his way of dealing with his loss. some people have there own way of doing so even though this way is a bit creepy :D |
