Personality
Manabu Honma is portrayed as a serious and somewhat stoic man grappling with the loss of his daughter, Menma. He initially struggles to accept the attempts of Menma's friends to fulfill her wish, reflecting a desire to move on and face reality. However, he ultimately demonstrates a capacity for compassion and understanding, eventually allowing the friends to proceed with their plan and even joining his wife to watch the fireworks. His quote, "There's no way we could ever forget Meiko, It's fine, so... we'll just have to feel lonely together. You, Satoshi and I - the three of us sharing that sorrow together," reveals a deep-seated grief but also a quiet acceptance of shared sorrow and the enduring memory of his daughter.
