It depicts a tale of 5 childhood friends who have drifted apart from one another following the death of their mutual friend, Meiko "Menma" Honma. These friends come together once again when "Menma" appears before one of them as a ghost and tells him that she cannot pass on to the afterlife unless she is granted one last wish.

Brought by the highly acclaimed studio A-1 Pictures (Sword Art Online, Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, Oreimo 2), the Anohana the Movie moved the hearts of 3 million viewers all across Japan when it was released in theaters this past August and topped 1 billion yen (roughly US $10 million) after 2 months.
