1----
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The manga adaptation, which accurately recreates, and even ''improves'' some of the frames from the anime.
3* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The opening theme song, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3bxbVGWy5k Aoi Shiori]] by Galileo Galilei. And also the ending theme, "Secret Base."
4* CrossoverShip: After [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh-PIXu6ccA this AMV]] made the rounds of the con circuit, Menma started being shipped with [[Literature/{{Toradora}} Aisaka Taiga]].
5* GeniusBonus: The world map shown in Poppo's introduction scene is both this and a FreezeFrameBonus; any viewer well-versed in traveling and/or geography will recognize that every circle shown really does correspond to a real-life town or city, a few of which are relatively obscure.
6* JerkassWoobie: Yukiatsu may be an elitist asshole who lives to show Jinta up, but Menma's death left him a whole mess of emotional issues and he does realize how pathetic he is. [[spoiler: He does start to get a bit nicer after he is outed as the fake Menma.]]
7* {{Moe}}: Menma. Also the kids when they were young and Menma's little brother.
8* {{Narm}}: All the crying and screaming in Episode 11, while not being [[TearJerker totally uncalled for]], can reach a point where it just descends into this and [[{{Wangst}} melodrama]]. It's either made more effective when [[TheBigGuy Poppo]] opens up over his trauma or made ''especially'' melodramatic given how he's screaming every line at the top of his lungs while sobbing.
9* TheScrappy: Viewers seldom have kind words for Aki and Haruna, who for the majority of the series are one-note {{Alpha Bitch}}es and awful friends to Anaru.
10* SignatureScene: The ending of Episode 11.
11* SpiritualSuccessor: It really comes off like part of Creator/KeyVisualArts' canon, what with the focus on family and relationships, the MagicRealism, and the drama calculated to make the viewer cry.
12* {{Squick}}:
13** Was anyone else a little weirded out when Poppo invited Jinta on a "[[UnusualEuphemism Jungle Cruise]]" while pulling down his pants?
14** Seeing Yukiatsu sniff out one of [[spoiler:a sundress that he bought which looked very similar to the one Menma used to wear]] weirded out quite a few people.
15* StoicWoobie: Tsuruko, although she doesn't seem like it until much later on.
