The rainbow cherry blossom trees bloom once a year in Magnolia and every year, there’s a big viewing festival to celebrate. Lucy is beyond excited to go for the very first time, but she comes down with a cold mere days before the event. She resigns herself to listening to the festivities from her room and wishing the others well, but when she hears Natsu and Happy call her name from outside, she rushes to the window and sees something amazing. The dragon slayer and his cat buddy have uprooted an entire rainbow cherry blossom tree and sent it floating down the river on a boat, just so Lucy could see it! If that’s not proof of true friendship, we don’t know what is.

Suddenly, the shy girl Yun-Hua realizes that she can finally contribute to the group by singing a beautiful song to cheer everyone up! With newfound resolve, Quitterie and Kanata heal everyone and they continue on their long trip home.

Jotaro’s mother Holly is a little bit of a ditz, but kindhearted and helpful to everyone she meets. So, when she comes down with a Stand-based illness that will kill her in 50 days, Jotaro and the crew know exactly what they have to do. They embark on a dangerous mission to Egypt to find and kill Dio, the 120-year-old vampire responsible for Stands manifesting in the Joestar family. Jotaro and Joseph lose some dear friends along the way, but it’s all worth it when they finally reduce Dio to dust and fly back home to see Holly smile again.

Somali is just a little girl, so it’s natural that her arduous journey with Golem would take a toll on her health eventually. She comes down with a nasty fever while Golem is working at a restaurant to raise funds for their trip, and Golem springs into action immediately out of worry. He bangs on a doctor’s door late at night and spends all of his hard-earned money on medicine that will work on all species (so as not to expose Somali’s identity as a human). The restaurant owner praises Golem on his devotion to Somali, saying that even though he himself isn’t a perfect father all the time, what’s most important is that children know that you love them.

In the new Stone Age, modern medical knowledge has been completely lost and diseases that could easily be cured now routinely take lives. Such is the case with Ruri, the priestess of the village that Senku finds after he’s de-petrified and set loose in the future. He and the other villagers spend an entire arc creating antibiotics to cure what turns out to be chronic pneumonia, and when Ruri can finally breathe normally again, she joyfully runs through the forest and sees the world in a whole new way. It’s such a heartwarming moment for everyone!
