Okay Im of two minds about what I think the plot of Anohana is going to turn out to be. I think Menmas wish is just to bring her friends together. Theyve all split up and she seems to be at her happiest when theyre hanging out even though theres still clearly a divide between them. My issue with this is that friends growing apart is a perfectly natural thing that just happens as much as TV tries to tell us otherwise. I dont think its healthy or a good message to act like friendships fading and drifting apart over time is any kind of tragedy. It could be something deeper than that like getting her friends together for one last time so they can sort out their shit and overcome the trauma of her death together BEFORE splitting up officially and moving on and Im hoping this is whats going to happen but... Look Im just going to say it this series has given me ample hints thus far that it MIGHT not be smart enough for that. I am still hoping though.
