== The Super Peace Busters ==

 

[[File:JintaYadomi_2587.png|frame]]

De facto leader of the "Super Peace Busters", a six-person gang of [[True Companions]] that tragically dissolved after Menma's death. Once an energetic boy, he has since withdrawn into himself after Menma's and his mother's deaths.

-----

* [[Victorious Childhood Friend]]: Subverted. His feelings for Menma were mutual, but her death meant that they could never be together. {{spoiler|Possibly played straight with Anaru in the ending.}}

 

[[File:MeikoHonma_44.png|frame]]

A girl who died in an accident ten years ago, only to reappear as a ghost only Jintan can see. Despite aging in real-time, she retains her cheerful, childlike disposition, and wears the same white one-piece sundress she wore the day she drowned.

-----

* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]

 

[[File:NarukoAnjou_1756.png|frame]]

A girl who idolized Menma, but at the same time was also jealous of her relationship with Jintan, with whom she kept in touch long after Menma's death. Both even attend the same high school, with Anaru often bringing homework to him whenever he's too lazy to go out.

-----

* [[What Does She See in Him?]]: Yukiatsu asks her what good she still finds in Jintan, pointing out that he's not the same kid they knew.

 

[[File:AtsumuMatsuyuki_1278.png|frame]]

A handsome, popular student in a prestigious school with Tsuruko. He used to have a crush on Menma, and is resentful of her relationship with Jintan, especially the fact that only he can see her ghost.

-----

* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: With Tsuruko. [[Oblivious to Love|From his point of view, anyway]].

 

[[File:ChirikoTsurumi_9762.png|frame]]

A bespectacled, quiet girl who remained close with Yukiatsu long after the gang dissolved, both attending the same prestigious high school. She has had a crush on him for a long time, and is resentful of his fixation on Menma.

-----

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]

 

[[File:TetsudoHisakawa_copy_8653.jpg|frame]]

An awkward child who idolized Jintan for his "coolness" and joined the Super Peace Busters. After Menma's death he began traveling the world, funding it with his part-time jobs, and stays in their old hut when not abroad.

-----
