Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

"What's this? It's just a mess."

Jinta removed the letter from his chest. "Didn't you say this was a game of hide-and-seek?"

"Rita..."

Menma blinked. It was a ruse she came up with in a moment of desperation, to prevent Jinta from breaking down because of her disappearance.

"Are you hidden well—!"

Jinta shouted into the forest with all his might.

"Are you hidden well—!"

The five people kept repeating the same question they used when playing hide-and-seek: "Are you hidden yet?"

Mianma stared blankly at them.

She hasn't played hide-and-seek in many years.

To be precise, she hadn't been found by anyone for many years, she took a deep breath.

"Hidden well—!!"

The wind stopped, the insects stopped chirping, and the sound of leaves rubbing against each other stopped.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, because they all heard Mianma's voice.

The next second they saw a white figure under the tree.

"My face is numb!! It really is numb!!"

"I can see her!"

Everyone was overjoyed to see the noodles in front of them.

"Shouldn't you be calling my name at a time like this?"

Menma looked at Jinta and said in a coquettish tone.

"Mianma really doesn't know how to play hide-and-seek."

Menma wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Jinta, just say it."

"What?"

Jinta was stunned.

"That should be enough to end it, right?"

Menma looked at everyone in front of her.

Could it be?! Everyone has realized it.

"I've read the letter. I like you very much too, Menma!"

"Bobo shouted loudly."

Tsuruko: "Menma, I like you too."

An Ming: "I love sesame noodles the most too!!"

Yukiatsu: "Of course I like you too!"

"Saying goodbye isn't something that can be done by one person alone, right—Jinta!"

With Bobo's prompting, Jinta finally realized what he was about to say.

"Thank you for granting my wish. I... really like you, Menma!"

Mianma stared at them blankly, and for a moment she felt as if she had returned to the past, to the days when they laughed and played together.

When she came to her senses, her face was already covered in tears.

"Menma... I still want to be with everyone, I still want to play with everyone, so I want to be reincarnated, so that I can..."

She was sobbing uncontrollably, "So I can be with everyone again, that's why Jinta cried... Everyone said goodbye... So... So please find me quickly..."

At this point, Menma was already sobbing uncontrollably!

The voices of five people rang out simultaneously.

Despite their reluctance, everyone uttered the words that signified farewell.

"Menma—I've found you!!!"

As dawn was about to pierce through Menma's body, Menma smiled at everyone through her tears.

"Found it."

She said it softly, as if it were the proudest thing in the world.

......

Menma eventually left, but the emotions she evoked have not faded.

Jinta returned to school, and his relationship with Anming returned to what it was before.

Yukiatsu and Tsuruko remained inseparable, but Yukiatsu became much more proactive.

Tsuruko finally put on that hair clip, a new hair clip that Yukiatsu had given him.

At the construction site, Bobo was engrossed in his books, trying to recapture the student days he had lost.

To most people, Mianma is like an unnamed flower by the roadside in summer.

Although I don't know its name, you can smell a faint fragrance of sunshine as soon as you get close.

As everyone grows up, that fragrance may gradually dissipate.

But they knew for sure that the flower would bloom again somewhere.

And no matter what, they will definitely fulfill the flower's wish.

The last frame of the film is a line of handwritten text in a pen, with childish and messy handwriting.

—Menma loves you all the most, so grow up well!

The final episode of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day.

The credits start scrolling on the screen.

Mu Chen cried so hard that he clung to Lin Dong's shoulder, his voice so nasal that he couldn't even speak properly.

"Brother Xiao, is this why...you tricked and coaxed me into coming to the comic convention? You...you're so heartless!"

He cried like a child who had just been told by an adult that there was no Ultraman in the world.

Another adult told him that Ultraman did exist, but he had turned into light and no one could hold him back.

Xiao Huohuo did not retort with insults.

He rubbed the corner of his eye with the back of his hand in the dim light.

Having spent two years navigating the complexities of society, he knew all too well what it meant to lose one's youth.

You think you've forgotten all those things, but actually, you just don't want to face them.

Almost simultaneously, the entire convention venue erupted in muffled sobs.

When there are many people, emotions resonate.

One person cried, and the two people next to them also had tears in their eyes.

And here, hundreds of thousands of people are watching Menma's smile at the same time.

The sound engineer didn't dare change the music he had prepared, so he could only let the end credits play quietly.

At this moment, many volunteers are ready to guide tourists.

If you need tissues or electrolyte water, you can get them for free at the service desk.

Everyone: It's confirmed, A-Guang definitely did it on purpose!

A boy who had been crying loudly in the corner sniffed and reached into his pocket to find he was out of tissues.

He was too embarrassed to borrow from the people next to him.

Just as I was in a dilemma, a guy wearing a baseball cap and a mask quietly handed me an unopened pack of tissues.

"Thanks, bro. If I ever believe Ah Guang again, I'll be a dog!"

Miriam Yeung: You said it!

Meanwhile, the number of online viewers on the "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day" special pages on major video platforms increased rather than decreased after the ending theme song started playing.

The replay function was overwhelmed, and the density of bullet comments was the highest since the show started.

Everyone was typing, typing and deleting, deleting and typing again, and in the end, most of the content sent out was just a single sentence.

"Menma, I've found you."

On Weibo's trending topics list, the top trending term only has five characters.

#Menma has found you#

Comment area:

"My god! I thought the part where everyone self-destructed was already a masterpiece, but it actually doubled in quality later on. Ah Guang really dares to write, leaving no character out, including the supporting characters."

"I had been holding it in, but during the final hide-and-seek game, I really cried my eyes out."

Half an hour later, the atmosphere at the comic convention finally began to calm down.

Xiao Huohuo rubbed his eyes hard and slapped Mu Chen on the back.

Are you feeling any better?

Mu Chen didn't answer; he had already started hiccuping from crying.

Lin Dong silently handed over a bottle of electrolyte water that he had just taken from the volunteer cart.

"Since it's free, I might as well drink a little."
