| Wow Yukiatsu. Just wow. Saying Jintan is the one that's obsessed with her while you yourself are cross-dressing as her. Now who it pitiful huh? I'm curious on how they are going to react to this and how he is going to talk himself out of this. >.< Another thing that has been going around in my mind is that why Menma's "ghost" doesn't just make herself apparent? She could've just picked up the coffee and everybody would've seen the floating coffee cup right? Some already noted that they felt weight on them when she was clinging to them. =P Anaru is just too good. I really hope Jintan and her will get together somehow. And I hope she'll leave her current "friends" as well because they're such bitches! |

apatch3 said: Its pretty much obvious already that he likes her.I'm betting Yukiatsu liked Menma when they were children too I want to steal Anaru's closet! Oh Yukiatsu-- I do pity you. It seems like he wanted someone to find out about his Menma obsession or he wanted to talk about it with everyone. Menma has to interact with others and if the show doesn't show that, then indeed it will be a big flaw. Cannot help but ship MenmaXJintan <3 |

Omniknight said: However, everyone who thinks he is suddenly a freak are rather insensitive too.. People cope with death of a loved one in many ways. I'm not one of the people who have started calling him a freak, but I have to point out that he would be far easier to sympathise with if he wasn't such a dick about things. Anyway, I agree with the people who are a little surprised that the crossdressing theory was right. I mean, yeah, the evidence was there, but I wasn't sure that they'd go through with something that might put off some viewers like that. Not much else to say, really. I very much enjoyed this episode, eagerly awaiting the next. |
| If any of my posts seem odd, it's probably because I'm tired. Sorry. I have sleeping issues. |
| It was embarassing and disturbing to see Yukiatsu in Menma's dress at the end. I just had to close my eyes haha. Im surprised that I like Tsuruko more. I hope she stays like this and not change. |
| Even though Yukiatsu's a little bit sharp in criticizing people but I really feel sorry for him. His love towards Memma is really.. intense. |
 |
| Haha, nice episode. The cross-dressing wasn't such a big surprise, imo. |

Agreed! im officially now a Yukiatsu fan! he had balls to dress as Menma;) The guy needs some love and understanding. all he needs is a big hug and support from his friends to get over Menma´s loss XD Well maybe he really liked to crossdress XDdo i feel some homolust? And loved the Anaru x Jintan moment:) Anaru x Jintan ftw. |

| OMG Yukiatsu! what kind of clothes do you have in your closet!? 8D really enjoyed this episode and now I have to wait another week for the next one, I want more! this anime is so good <3 |
| Oh so it was Yukiatsu after all, kinda dissapointing that it was the most obvious. But anyway, Tsuruko is love. <3 |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| HE IS WEARING RITSU'S HEARBAND >:U DAMN YOU YUKIATSU |
| So the speculah was true after all. I just hope the show not to become all about crossdressing and things like that, it'd be creepy. Anyway, sometimes I wish for Menma to really show herself to the public, by moving objects or things like that. But sometimes I don't - wonder what will be actually better for the plot. Love the show's unpredictability, anyway. |
 |
| Great ep once again and fantastic character developments. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
-Arthur said: That's one of the ugliest cross dressing I ever saw in anime... This. Ugly and Creepy. someone should slap him for doing this. lol Awesome episode. though i still think Jinta is an idiot. when he wants everyone to believe that he can see menma then why not prove it. maybe he will in the end of the story. |
 |
Ani-Blast said: On a side note, If that happens, I'll be happy, b/c that would mean that Jinta x Menma will happen. I love those two together. As for Yukiatsu..I just feel bad for him. He must of really loved Menma, but to go this far.... I hope he redeems himself, b/c I think he's a good guy..he's just struggling more than others and showing it in odd ways. As for Tsuruko, I liked her from the beginning and this episode showed me exactly why she's so awesome. And Poppo was awesome as always, making Menma feel better without him knowing is always a plus. Looking forward to the next episode |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| Fail troll attempt is fail. Anyway, great episode again and Popo always made me chuckle. xD The OP and ED are growing in me. <3 |
| Looks like the cross-dressing theory came true. It would have more of an impact on me if I wasn't expecting it. I'm curious to see how this would play out in the next ep. |
| I bet Yukiatsu will somehow deny everything in the next episode in some obviously fake way to try and cover up his obsession. Oh and more Anaru x Jintan please. |

| I wasn't really shocked at the crossdressing but I kinda was when I saw it was Yukiatsu. Now to wait another seven days :/. Just hope it'll be JintanxMenma, really don't want that hypocrite to be with him lol. |
Haruhi is Haruhi, and no one but Haruhi!    |
| I haven't seen the episode 4, I just got really spoiled BIG TIME about Yukiatsu's cross dressing, like WOW. I even really thought that he's hot and going to be Jinta's rival. |
| Ugh, Yukiatsu is a sad character. At first I just disliked him, but now he seems so broken. I like how Tsurumi can always tell what he's up to. Great episode <3 |
| I waited until today to watch it for the UTW subs. Wonderful episode, my mouth was practically wide open the last few seconds lol. |
 |
| Yukiatsu, you're an asshole. And a crossdressing freak. Great episode, I love every single main character in this show, except for Yukiatsu of course. 5/5 And I wonder what Anaru's "friends" are up to... |
 |
| Another thing I noticed after seeing it a 2nd time is in the spoiler The other thing is that I am with the people that think Anjou looks astonishing with her hair as in the following spoiler |
| I knew he was the one who was wearing a Menma dress because some people at last episode speculated about it and it seemed true for me and it was true. But still a very interesting episode and Yukiatsu is high in the rankings of greatest perverts this season. |
| I can't believe they actually did this. Don't know what to think about this, I'm not a fan of it (it seriously reminds me of stuff like School Days), but I'll guess I'll wait until it is played out completely. |
| I'm beginning to like Tsuruko more and more. ^^ Naruko always looks so beautiful. <3 I really would like to see Jinta ending up with Naruko. I know that he probably still likes Menma but she's dead. Can't wait for next episode to learn why Yukiatsu was dressing as Menma. |
Yumekichi11 said: Heck yeah! Glad to have more people on my side on that one. MenmaxJinta is cute though but you know....she's dead....lol. Yumekichi11 said: I hope this will not happen but if it does it will make Jinta x Naruko more than ever since he will be the one to most likely comfort her. I wonder if Menma will help in that? Agreed. Although, I think Tsuruko will help aswell, if it does happen.. |
 |
| Usually the ones that protest too much are the ones with the most skeletons in their closets. Case in point: Yukiatsu is a cross-dressing psychopath!! I actually wouldn't be surprised if he pushed Menma off the riverbank because she loved Jinta and not him!! Crucify the bastard!!!!! |
 |
ZaggyPlushie said: For those who think Yukiatsu is a pervert: I think he crossdress because he miss Menma and he is really sad, not because its making him sexually aroused. I guess he is traumatized by her death and have issues but it's not like it's a sexual behavior. And also he is a jealous asshole.

You're right, he is a psychopath (and because of that be's acting like a hentai), so he needs a clinic. |
Villetta_Nu said: Ok well I am calling official 3rd dips on that though. You really think he did that? I have lots of suspicion due to that sniffing of his of the clothing but damn. Ok guess assumption in and let's see if that is what may have happened.I actually wouldn't be surprised if he pushed Menma off the riverbank because she loved Jinta and not him!! Crucify the bastard!!!!! |
| OMG Tsuruko, you are such an awesome bitch, aren't you? And you just know what to talk, what need to talk and how much you should talk. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Really good episode! This is turning into a great show. |

| Great episode! Hate the cliffhanger ending, but really looking forward to next week. |
| this show justs gets better and better doesnt it? |
     |
| haha starting to really like this show more and more. |
     |
| OH.MY.GOD. |
 |
| DO YOU THINK HE HAD AN ARMPIT FETISH ROFL ANARU'S FRIENDS MAY BE BITCHES BUT THEY HAVE GREAT STORIES. |
Villetta_Nu said: I actually wouldn't be surprised if he pushed Menma off the riverbank because she loved Jinta and not him!! if not pushed her then i think she died because of him somehow. maybe he ran after her and she slipped of the riverbank, so basically it was his fault but he's blaming everything on Jinta, though in deep inside heart, he know his fault and is really sad. |
|
Siva said: OMG Tsuruko, you are such an awesome bitch, aren't you? And you just know what to talk, what need to talk and how much you should talk. Most characters in anime just make misunderstandings and say wrong things. It's remarkable that there are characters that have the ability to do everything the right way. |
| oh lol... somehow, it was easy to know Yukiatsu was obsessed with Menma :I weird oh so weird.. well good episode, except cliffhanger.. OTL dang it can't wait for next episode ; u ; |

This is exactly what I've been thinking... I think the obsession he has with Menma/the cross-dressing is an obsession caused by guilt. I think something happened in accordance to her death and it was (or partially/indirectly was) his fault. Ah. I love this show. |
  |
| Wooo... I don't think that he is a perverted but he definitely has problems. I hope that friends help him .... somehow. |
 |
| Nice, so far I'm lovin' each episode! About Yukiatsu, yeah it was pretty obvious... but, hey, lets see how he reacts. Best anime this season that's for sure! |
    |
| I couldn't help but feel embarrassed for Yukiatsu at the end, not because he was crossdressing, but because he got caught up in his own jealous lies. |
| Derp, I agree with Lunacie. You really kind of feel bad for him as well, even though we've only seen a rather crazy side of him there's probably something more to what he did by dressing as Menma rather than just doing it to mess with them. |
