Jinta
I'm telling you it's not like that.
That's what you're saying, but your breasts definitely got bigger.
Die!
That's a little gross... But...
Atsushi
Yadomi
Toko
Jinta
Die!
Die, die, die, die!
Don't hand down your recessive genes!
You rutting sexual beasts!
Die... Die... Die...
Hm? Is that Bill-Builder?
That's wrong.
Girls are really imbeciles.
Eh? But they look similar.
Just look at how fat his lips are.
If that's your reason, then even the old guy at the prep school would be Bill-Builder...
Hm. But you know, Jintan...
Hm? Jintan?
Jintan?
The beast of the summer is truly fierce.
Ah, that's not fair!
Let Menma have some, too!
Ah, an egg!
Menma wants it mixed in. Mixed egg!
Hey.
The egg will get hard.
Mix the egg! Mix it, mix it!
Oh. Making ramen?
Ah, Uncle. Sorry for intruding!
Good idea. Jinta, make some for me, too.
Jinta?
Yeah, that's fine.
Yay! You're so cute!
Eh?! Why are you making some for Uncle, but not for Menma?
Isn't it about time you quit that habit of calling everything "cute"?
Can you stop it?
Hm? But the computer said it was good, you know!
Eh? But it's a nice word. I can use it for everything.
People don't normally use that.
How many eggs do you want?
One dropped egg. Don't break it, okay?
Okay!
Even your uncle! Favour, favour, favouring the middle-aged!
As I thought...
The TV, the TV.
Everyone! Today...
Ah, that cat is cute.
Dad is really up to business as usual.
Which is to say really...
Hey, Jintan!
Here.
Yay!
Thanks for the food!
There, there, there and there.
All right!
Eh!?
Let Menma eat, too!
Jinta?
Eh? Ah, it's nothing.
Where are the chopsticks?! The chopsticks!
This is bad...
Eh? What are you doing? Did you have a heatstroke inside the house?
It's cute, but... this is big trouble!
Jintan?
The summer back then was...
Jintan, that's dangerous.
I'll be okay-
Ah! As expected, Jintan's is the biggest one!
Right?
You really are awesome!
Jintan, you're so cool!
The way I was back then...
Hey, Tsuruko!
What is it?
Hey, Jintan.
What is it, Menma?
You see... I want to make a wish...

How many pages wasted to compose our feelings
We Still Don't Know
the Name of the Flower
We Saw
That Day.

But for some reason, I can't fill the blank space of one single line

Enclosing that pressed-flower bookmark

I rolled down with you on that abandoned bike

I'm hoping we'll be able to meet again
douka shiteru mitai
どうかしてるみたい
There must be something wrong with me
What's this?
I'm sick. There's no doubt about it...
It must be all the stress and trauma I've been carrying,
taking shape because of the summer heat-
Furthermore, it's even become entangled in my sexual urges of puberty...
Good morning, Jintan.
For now, let's just say that my stress has taken a physical existence,
and that you're here.
Eh?
But... why now, after so long...?
Furthermore, you appeared looking older.
Hm...
Even if you ask me something like that...
I'm telling you I have no idea!
You!
But I think it's probably...
...because I want you to grant Menma's wish!
Wish? What's that supposed to be?
Hm... That's also... I'm telling you I have no idea!
If you don't know the wish, then it's impossible to make it come true!
Hm... But I sort of feel like that...
Really... What could it be?
As if I know!
You spit on me! I don't like it!
Barrier!
She's the beast of summer.
My stress. My trauma.
For the time being, remember what that wish of yours is.
Ah, yes, yes.
It was a wish that couldn't be granted unless everyone was together.
E-Everyone...?
Yes!
Hey, wait!
Wait!
But someone's calling.
What good will it do if you go?
Whatever. Just stay here...
What are you doing?
A-Anjou...
Anaru!
Hey! Calm down!
"Calm down," you say...
It's not like I'm even rushing, you know.
No... It's...
Somehow, my shoulder feels heavy.
Anaru...
You can't see... Menma?
So, what is it?
This.
Hm?
The homework from summer break the teacher asked me to give to you.
Huh? Now?
There are only two days left for the summer holidays...
Unlike you, I've got things to do.
Then you should've just dumped this somewhere.
It's not as if I feel like going to that stupid school, anyway.
I really don't care if you come or not.
But...
You're a disgrace!
See you.
Ana-
Jintan, you idiot!
Why didn't you ask Anaru for help?
Like, "Let's grant a wish together, Anaru!"
First of all, I'll say this.
Eh?
Don't call her "Anaru" or anything like that.
If you call her anything, call her Anjou or Naruko or something.
Why?
Anaru is Anaru.
She's kind to everyone and has lots of things, like games and manga.
I'm telling you...
She isn't the Anaru from back then any more.
Eh?
There's no way she'd lend a hand or help out,
even if you asked that rotten bitch.
Rotten bitch?
It means stupid girl!
Anyway, that girl is no longer a friend!
No!
No. I hate you for talking bad about Anaru!
Menma...
Let's go one more time to Anaru's place!
Let's ask her for help!
Jintan!
Jintan?
I got it.
You'll understand if I ask Anjou for that wish of yours, right?
It's not only Anjou.
Everything has changed since then.
Jintan, are you done yet?
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Hm?
Glasses with a hat?
Don't worry about it.
We're going, right?
Yeah.
My!
My, you're going shopping?
Yeah, shopping. Ah, now that you mention it...
Jintan?
I got it.
Hm? What's wrong?
H-Hello there.
That's a strange face.
Ah, you have some green onion stuck in your teeth.
Shut up!
Shit!
Wait up!
Hey, Anaru's place isn't this way.
I'm taking a walk while we're at it.
Ah, BomBom used to be here, right?
It turned into a WcDonald!
Wow! But Menma...
Did you see that film?
Guys who were in the same junior high school as me...
Which one?
The one with the aliens or something appearing,
and there's this girl who fights at a school using nunchuks.
Eh! Which film is that?
Your friends?
No, they're not.
Although that's to be expected.
I was thrown off by those old ladies, but no one cares about me.
Even Anjou said it, "I don't care what happens to you."
The neck goes "click"!
The smell of summer!
You didn't change.
Eh?
It's nothing.
That's to be expected.
She's just an illusion.
"Grant a wish," huh?
This must be... because of what I said to Menma...
Jintan!
Look, look!
What are you doing? That's dangerous!
Jintan!
Eh?
Jintan... Menma-chan has...
Ji... Jintan?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Ouch...
Yadomi?
What are you... doing?
Episode 1
Super Peaceful Busters
Say, Naruko. You went to Jin-chan's house?
Knock!
Hm, I didn't do that?
Well, anyway-
I only stopped by his house.
I mean, it has nothing to do with you, does it?
It does.
I wanted you to give him some steamed bean-jam buns.
You can just take them yourself, right!?
Whoa, puberty, puberty.
Argh!
I'm the one who's a disgrace.
Here.
Ah, yeah, hm...
We're on our way home from summer classes.
We're in a distinguished school, after all.
That's the high school uniform...
Though, what are you...?
...I was supposed to wear.
My...
Yadomi?
Are you okay?
Ah, yeah.
See you, then.
Ah, hey!
Yukiatsu and Tsuruko!
Let's go!
Huh?
Ah, no. Menma is... No, I mean... Hm...
What do you mean by "Menma"?
Hm...
You're still saying that kind of thing now?
Huh?
Yukiatsu?
I heard about it.
Yukiatsu!
I heard that you're not going to school.
You failed your entrance exams,
entered the lowest level high school around here,
called out Honma Meiko's name and didn't even go to school...
Have you gone crazy?
Jintan!
Yukiatsu, you idiot!
What's he getting worked up for?
People change when it comes to Honma Meiko.
Aren't you the same?
Matsuyuki-kun.
Shut up.
You're deplorable.
Only your face is nice...
I have a nice brain, too.
Yes, yes.
Jintan!
Wait up!
Jintan!
You understand now, right?
Everyone has changed completely.
No, I'm the one who’s changed the most.
Jintan? Hey...
My stress.
Give me a break already.
When I'm with you, I remember the bad...
I remember all the bad things.
It's irritating.
Jin... tan...
Back then... That summer back then...
...wasn't like this.
Hey, it's decided!
What is?
We're the Super Peaceful Busters!
Whoa! Cool!
What are "Busters"?
It seems like it's "strong guys".
We'll be protecting the peace!
Amazing!
Peace of where?
Everywhere. All kinds of peace!
Whoa!
Jintan will be the leader, then!
Yeah!
Everyone would follow after me.
Yes, that day...
Even that day...
Say, Jintan...
Huh?
You like Menma, don't you?
Eh?
Huh?
What?!
W-What are you saying!
Say it honestly.
There are no secrets in the Super Peace Busters.
Yukiatsu!
Say it! Say it! Say it!
Say it! Hurry up and say it! Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it!
Stop it, already.
W-Who would like such an ugly-
I thought she'd cry, since Menma always was a crybaby.
But...
Wait, Jintan!
Jintan!
Hm? Oh, you're home already?
I'm going over to mum's place for a bit.
Warm it up
Let it go "ching"
And eat it!
Dad
Heat up the food in the microwave if you're hungry, okay?
That smile... was stuck in my heart.
"I'll just have to apologise tomorrow", I thought.
This tastes bad.
But that tomorrow...
...never came.
Curry.
Hm?
Hey, the door is open.
Then close it?
Ah, Saa-kun!
You've become so big!
Papa has a lot of white hairs...
Mama...
Stop doing that all the time.
Saa-kun...
You're always offering some to Nee-chan when we're having curry.
It's an eyesore.
That's because it was her favourite food.
You don't eat when you are dead, right?
Don't say that.
Onee-chan's lacking in some ways,
so she might not have even realised that she died.
Menma knows.
Menma...
...at least knows enough to know that she died.
Whoa!
What are you doing?
It's not my fault. The cup fell on its own.
Whatever. Just clean it up already.
Onee-chan?
It wasn't me.
There's nothing in it.
Damn Dad...
After we'd brilliantly bustered the peace,
for some reason or another, we grew apart.
Menma wants to have a mixed egg.
Mixed egg!
She...
kimi to natsu no owari shourai no yume ooki na kibou wasurenai
I won't forget the end of summer with you, the dreams for the future, the great hopes
I... wanted it.
juunen go no hachigatsu mata deaeru no wo shinjite
I believe we'll meet again in August 10 years from now
The place she'd probably go is...
saikou no omoide wo...
The best memories...
All the time... The tomorrow of that day...
The tomorrow where I could apologise to her...
I wanted it.
deai wa futto shita shunkan
Our meeting was a sudden instant
kaerimichi no kousaten de
At an intersection on the way home
Menma...

You called out to me, "Let's walk home together"
My stress.
boku wa terekusasou ni
I was awkwardly
My trauma.
kaban de kao wo kakushi nagara
Hiding my face with my bag
hontou wa totemo totemo ureshikatta yo
But the truth is I was really really happy
Yeah, it must be... that I created Menma to apologise to her.
aa hanabi ga yozora kirei ni saite chotto setsunaku
Ah, the fireworks bloom so beautifully in the night sky that it's a little painful
If so, then at this rate...
aa kaze ga jikan to tomo ni nagareru
Ah, the wind flows along with time
ureshikutte tanoshikutte bouken mo iroiro shita ne
I was so happy, it was so fun, and we had so many adventures
Men-
futari no himitsu no kichi no naka
inside the secret base for the two of us
kimi to natsu no owari shourai no yume ooki na kibou wasurenai
I won't forget the end of summer with you, the dreams for the future, the great hopes
What's this?
This is over the top...
juunen go no hachigatsu mata deaeru no wo shinjite
I believe we'll meet again in August 10 years from now
Idiot! The gap between that and reality is romance!
kimi ga saigo made kokoro kara "arigatou" sakendeta koto shitteta yo
I knew that you shouted "Thank you" from the bottom of your heart until the end
Eh? It's Jintan.
Poppo?
Let's carve our name here, then.
namida wo koraete egao de sayounara
Holding back tears to say goodbye with a smile
How do you write "Super"?
You don't know?
setsunai yo ne saikou no omoide wo...
It's so painful, the best memories...
You write the kanji for "run" on the left...
How do you write "run"?
Why are you here?
super peace busters
On that day, the time that had stopped started to move again.
Dear love...
Your charms alone are beautiful
Can you be my dear love
I'll hold your hand I'll hold your arms
'Til the end of time
Will you be mine
This love is climbing over sunrise
Over the moon slides
So when the wind blows
I'll seal this love
Until the end of time...
Dear love...
Your charms alone are beautiful
Can you be my dear love
I've come to know that chances
Fall into the sand
Please understand
You've brought that girl inside of me
Inside of me...
