One piece of Japanese cultural that I would like to share is a song called "Secret Base" from the hit anime "Anohana". "Anohana" follows the story of a group of childhood friends who are split apart by the accidental death of Menma, one of the friends, and the guilt that they feel in failing to prevent it. 10 years later, Menma's spirit appears before Jinta, another one of the friends, and the estranged members of the Super Peace Busters slowly come together once again as they attempt to put Menma's spirit at peace and at the same time resolve the guilt and misunderstandings that hold them back. "Secret Base" perfectly captures the emotions of this anime, as well as themes of innocence, friendship, and self-realization.
