Been nagging at myself to do an review since the Spring anime season has just ended. Decided to review AnoHana i think i haven't seen anime drama like AnoHana in a long time, definitely desereves a post.

AnoHana is basically about a group of 6 friends. They were really close when they were young until Menma died in an accident, since then they have kept their distance from each other. Years later, Menma appears before Jintan, the leader of the group. They figure that Menma has a wish that needs to be granted so that she can go to heaven, so he reunites the group to do so. Its much easier said than done, for each one of them carries a heavy burden from that day. The way the show ends was just perfect, not too cheesy yet not too abrupt either, a good change~

However, the biggest flaw of the storyline is Menma (HUGE SPOILERS HERE). Even though she is a ghost, she comes with a special ability to pick up objects, write and even eat. While the series was ongoing someone commented on twitter that the most painful part of the whole show is that all the disbelief of Menma can be dispelled by her simply picking up an object. >_______< first part was definitely frustrating because of that!

I like mentioned, AnoHana is full of drama, good drama. I think the plot is extremely well developed, every character has a problem/story and it is full of difficult decisions. Makes me feel with the characters. I liked the ending especially because its not just focused on just granting Menma's wish but it also spend time with the characters, healing their scars from back then.

Music was good, loved the OP, but a really special mention goes for the ending. How can anyone not like Secret Base? Plus the title is extremely fitting for the anime. Great song totally, makes me miss ZONE when they were once together TwT

AnoHana is a MUST WATCH. I can't say more than that, its good drama, seriously what are you waiting for? Just watch~
