3D - 2

What are anime/s where the main guy's friend/best-friend died, then he remembers the friend at a hard time?

I'm talking about action anime, but it could also be anime without violent action. Examples of action anime that has the description I want: 1) Tengen Toppa Gurenn Lagann - the main character remembers his older friend (who acted as his older brother) which made him very courageous as he fought the bad guys and defeated them all on his own; this is a great action anime. 2) Final Fantasy the movie - it's the 3D movie and also the animation movie. I think Cloud was the main character. So, Cloud remember his older friend (a fellow soldier who was always happy and protective) who died saving Cloud. Cloud used his friend's huge sword in battles. 3) Ginban Kaleidoscope - the female main character have a ghost friend to help her in her practices and stuff. 4) Naruto (latest manga) - Naruto remembers Jiraiya, as Naruto fought the bad guys. 5) S-cry-ed - the main character remember his friend when he was about to drown; the friend (as a ghost/memory) told him that he must stand up and fight, so the main character became stronger again. Usually, the friends/comrades who died were happy characters or jokers of the story. We feel bad for losing them, but it is something that must be for the main character to change into a better person. I'm looking for these kinds of anime.
