Original subtitles

Hey.

Over here.

Sorry for calling you out so suddenly.

I didn't expect Menma's father to be against it...

That's why we're here!

We're going to press the attack on Menma's mom while the dad's out!

Her mother has to be on our side.

You're right.

She lent us the diary, so if it's for Menma...

Menma's going to be mad when she learns we went to her house without telling her...

Welcome!

Oh, Atsumu-kun and Chiriko-chan too?

I'm so glad you came.

Please, come in.

T-Thank you.

Looks like it might go well.

Excuse us.

Yeah...

Excuse us.

Rocket fireworks, was it?

Y-Yes.

Well, you see—

I was surprised when my husband told me about it.

But isn't it wonderful?

As friends, you're getting together and thinking of interesting things to do.

It's just like when you were little.

Yeah, exactly.

When we were kids, we were planning on making fireworks with Menma.

I see... with Meiko...

U-Um, I think Men—

...Meiko-san would be glad if we launched fireworks.

Why did you ask the man t—

You really are friendly with each other, aren't you?

No, we're not that friendly or anything.

Meiko would be jealous, I'm sure.

She's being left out.

You say it'll make Meiko happy, but you're all just having fun, aren't you?

You're using her as an excuse...

M-Miss?

No, we're—

You know Meiko isn't with us anymore.

You kids act as if nothing's changed...

B-But...!

Why?

You were playing with Meiko that day, weren't you?

Tsurumi.

You read her diary, didn't you?!

Time has frozen for her!

She's the only one who hasn't changed, yet...!

Why do you all keep growing?!

Why does Meiko alone...

Meiko...

...is the only one...

I'm home.

What are you doing?

Let's get going.

Y-Yeah.

Tsurumi-san, is your hand okay?

It's nothing.

Menma's mother sure was scary.

Yeah.

I wonder if she was bitter about us the whole time?

I don't think someone has ever hated me that much in my life.

Well, she is a parent...

Yeah. A parent...

Let's stop this.

Let's stop this whole stupid thing about Menma's wish.

W-Wait!

What about Menma—

Get real.

We were all being nice to you.

Because you're pathetic.

Yukiatsu!

I know I can't say much about others, having done what I did.

But, unlike you, I never tried to force my own pain onto others.

My own pain...

Isn't that right?

You're even affecting Menma's parents because you're stuck in the past.

Everyone's being hurt.

He was probably talking about himself, wasn't he?

Yukiatsu's the one being hurt.

I-I still believe you, Jin-tan!

I believe that Menma exists!

Jin-tan?

It's okay.

I'll grant her wish alone.

Jin-tan!

But you said we all have to—

You know...

I thought everyone had changed.

But when I talked with everyone, I was surprised that none of us changed very much.

But even if nobody's changed, "all of us" doesn't exist anymore.

It never did.

Because Menma's missing.

Jin-tan...

If "all of us" doesn't exist, it's the same if I grant it alone.

Wait, Jin-tan!

I'll continue to help like I always have!

So...!

Welcome back!

T-That's dangerous, I'm still taking my shoes off!

I'll grant it, even if I have to alone.

Even if I have to alone...

What, you're working more jobs?!

Yeah, manual labor is pretty profitable.

You don't look so well.

I haven't been sleeping.

What?!

My way of life has been "eat then sleep" for a while now.

I have a lot of sleep savings to burn.

How...?

How can you be so determined?

Do you love Menma that much?

Hey, J-Jin-tan?!

Here, water.

Some vitamins, too.

Just take them.

I feel a lot better.

Jin-tan.

Let's stop this already.

You've been hurt enough yourself.

Let's stop this. Okay?

What do you mean, "this"?

My shift isn't over yet.

Don't go!

Don't!

I didn't want you to go that time, either.

"That time"?

I'm going to say something really mean.

That time, I actually felt relieved.

You said you didn't like Menma.

I know it's horrible, but I was a little happy.

But...

If you run off like that...

It's no different from saying you love Menma!

I've been hurting ever since.

I couldn't forgive myself for being happy that instant.

I hurt Menma and things ended up like that...

Jin-tan...

I couldn't forgive myself for liking you...

But I still...

I still...

You're still going?

You're crazy, Jin-tan!

If Menma really is at your place, isn't she going to disappear when you grant her wish?!

You don't care if Menma disappears?

Even though you love her?!

Welcome!

Jin-tan, you idiot!

I'm such an idiot...

Yadomi Atsushi Touko Jinta

I'm home.

Menma...

You were waiting?

Your nails are black!

I'll clean them with a toothpick.

You don't have to—

I'll clean them up!

I know.

If Menma's wish comes true, she'll...

Ow!

Sorry, just a little longer.

But that's what Menma wants.

A little more right here...

In that case, I'll...

Jin-tan?

What's wrong? Did it hurt that much?

No, uh...

I suddenly remembered A Dog of Flanders ...

A-About Patrasche.

Patrasche?

A Dog of ... you know, the one they were re-airing a long time ago.

What the hell?

That's the worst lie I've ever told!

But...

Jin-tan...

Jin-tan!

I think Patrasche was happy at the end!

Yeah.

Because Nero was really, really kind, right?

They were friends, right?

That's why, okay?

Yeah. Yeah...

Menma-chan.

Episode

By losing Menma...

Menma's mother would continue to hate us...

Anaru would continue to blame herself...

Even Yukiatsu, and probably Tsuruko and Poppo too.

Everyone's wallowing in guilt, without any sort of salvation...

I can see Menma.

I'm the only one being saved by Menma.

That's...

That's so unfair...

Good morning.

Shoot, I'm going to be late for wor—

I mean, I have school...

You're going to school?

Today's Touko-san's...

I'm coming. Wait for me.

I'll be downstairs then.

If I'm the only one who can see Menma...

I have the responsibility of granting Menma's wish.

Oh man, it's rusted.

Oh, there we go.

Good morning.

Let's go.

Pops...

I'm sorry.

About what?

Oh, don't worry about your part-times.

You knew?!

Oh, just kidding. What is it?

Oh, you went to Honma-san's place?

Well? Which one?

So you know everything...

I don't know anything.

I mean, I couldn't figure out why you just apologized.

Yadomi Household Grave

So, what is it?

It's nothing...

Can you bring me that incense?

Yeah.

You can't beat your parents...

Jin-tan left without even saying good morning...

That's Poppo's!

Hello!

I know Menma's mother was like that, but I can't let Jin-tan do it alone.

And here I was thinking the Super Peace Busters were back to normal...

Hey, Poppo...

They're fighting?!

So I still believe in Menma!

Poppo, why—

Even if only Jin-tan can see her and nobody else believes in her, I...

What's up?

A silent call?

Yeah.

Yadomi's working right now, right?

Maybe? I guess so.

The display showed the number for Yadomi's home phone.

Yadomi made a silent call?

I heard a static sound like a sandstorm.

It's stupid, but maybe it isn't Yadomi...

Yukiatsu?

Darn that Anjou-san, I wish she'd stop taking a day off without saying anything!

Have you heard anything from Anjou-san?

No, sorry.

I see. That sucks.

I was planning to have a muscle party with the gym folk!

Product

We do not accept credit cards.

How should I face Anaru the next time we meet?

Um...

Oh, welco—

Well, I'm sorry.

Don't be.

We should be apologizing for visiting so suddenly.

My parents are nuts.

That woman hardly leaves the house.

It seems like she doesn't want to meet anyone.

I know it's tough that Nee-chan passed away, but it's kind of disgusting.

I'm kind of embarrassed she's my mother.

Seriously, it's a mystery how parents think.

But I think they have it toughest.

Parents, I mean... maybe, well...

Not that I have any right to say so...

Even though they still have one.

A son.

I'm still a kid and hardly remember Nee-chan,

but I do remember a little.

I'm vrooming off!

TL Note: Menma mangles the Japanese phrase 'ittekimasu' into 'ittekurumasu' here.

Me too!

I'm going too!

Not you, Saa-kun!

I'm going!

You see...

...your big sister's part of the Super Peace Busters!

We're going to protect everyone's peace!

So Saa-kun, you have to protect our house. Got it?

Got it!

She told me to protect our house, but...

It's such a dreary household...

Hey.

A-Anjou—

Jin-tan, you came.

Yadomi...

Why's everyone—

What were you doing today?

What? A part-time—

Are you sure you weren't calling our houses?

Call you?

We got silent calls around five.

Silent?

Or what, are you going to say Menma did it again?

Menma?

But the old man and I were both gone at that time...

So it has to be Menma...

What's with you?

Menma this, Menma that...

...huh?!

H-Hey!

Yukiatsu!

Then let me see her.

Menma's here, isn't she?

Then let me see her!

Stop it, Yukiatsu!

A-Are you okay?

Calm down a bit!

That's right.

Cool down for a bit.

Menma...

Again? Really?!

Hey, cut that out!

You're horrible, Yadomi.

You're still playing Menma make-believe?!

No—

I'm sorry, everyone.

Why are you apologizing?

Yadomi!

I-Is Menma there, Jin-tan?

Poppo, you stop it too!

Jin-tan, I'm taking a time-out.

Yukiatsu, just calm down a little!

Men—

I'm begging you...

I'm begging you...

Just... stop it.

What we did to Menma won't go away for the rest of our lives.

Menma isn't apologizing, you liar.

There's no way Menma would forgive us!

Yukiatsu...

T-The diary?

W-Why? There's no wind blowing.

Whoever it is, stop that.

But seriously, why—

Our summer together has ended
