A past I want to erase (Japanese: 私はを過ぎたa消したいと思う - Keshi saritai kako) is episode number 215 of the anime series Naruto, and the seventh episode of the 9th season.
[edit] Plot
In this episode, Menma's old team are invading the village they are staying in, the team start to battle Neji, Tenten, and Naruto, and after Menma uses his musical instrument (which all of the team has their own with their own powers) and plays a tune to release a spell from his previous team. The evil team runs away. When the Konoha ninja ponder, Menma brings up the fact that he thinks they are going to destroy the dam and flood the village to steal the gold in the mines.
Naruto, remembering Menma's injuries, carries him piggy-back up the mountain. When they are climbing up the mountain, Menma tells Naruto that he never forgot his memory, he had used a jutsu to try to erase his memory, but it wore off in a few days. He did this to try to rid himself of his evil deeds, since he did all of those horrible crimes with his other team. Naruto ignores this and tells him that that's not what they need to be worrying about at this time.
The two get to the top of the mountain and Menma knocks Naruto off of it, with him landing on a branch. Menma runs inside the cave that would stop the flood if it happened, because there were exploding tags filled inside of it. Menma detonates the tags by blowing them up himself. Before he dies Menma's last words are, "Good bye, Naruto-kun."
Then the mountain crumbles, and the town is saved. Naruto runs up the mountain looking for Menma, after realizing what happened he says it shouldn't of happened this way, and yells out Menma's name. Naruto runs off quickly using his shadow-clone jutsu only to find Shin running away. Shin attacks Naruto with a kunai attached to a bungie cord. Shin destroys the shadow clones, but in the dust Naruto performs a Rasengan piercing through Shin's kunai and hits him dead on in the eye with his Rasengan.
At the end of the episode, Naruto is eating Ramen in front of Menma's flute, Tsunade was in the trees with Shizune, they decide not to bother him. Once they leave, Naruto says, "I told you I promised to eat the legendary Ramen with you, after we got back from the mission." Then Menma's spirit (or image) appears in front of Naruto, looks at him, smiles, then disappears as Naruto looks sad as he continues to eat.
