So in case you didn't realize it. They're already dead.

Have they been dead the whole time, or did they die at some point earlier in the episode that I missed?

I’ve seen this ep several times before and I never figured out when they actually died.

They died when they were demolishing the building near the start of the episode, everything after that was just their ghosts(they never had shadows while everyone else did).

Happy Family Planning rules. It's like, the most upbeat and whimsical episode in the series despite being about suicide.
That being said, allow me to bring down the mood by positing that the girl probably wanted to kill herself because she wasn't wanted. Hence, Happy Family Planning.

The train jumper might have been a ghost too.

Definitely was. Him walking away with the crowd not reacting was the show's first big hint that something was amiss.

Another thing to notice is that no one else in the episode ever seems to acknowledge their existence. The only time anyone else notices them is Lil Slugger and when those girls at the end of the episode see them in their camera.

I asked last week if mob could beat up little slugger but after learning that little slugger is scared of ghosts I think the answer is obvious.

I do like how this episode more or less has nothing to do with the rest of the plot other than a token Lil' Slugger appearance for two minutes. Satoshi Kon just really wanted to tell a story about a suicide club, and I respect the commitment to a tangent.

Lil Slugger only goes after those who are emotionally cornered and these three suicidal goofballs clearly aren't.

It's a rock-paper-scissors cycle. Psychics beat ghosts. Ghosts beat memes. Memes beat psychics.

For a while the animation and the art style had me thinking that it might have been a bottle episode. I'm not an expert on this kind of thing so I'm probably just pulling something out of my butt.

After Pain killed himself the Wizard King rezed himself for no adequately explored reason and to rez all the supporting characters he just killed Asta sworded the stupid demon to death and put all the genocide elf souls to rest, the entire village hailed Naruto as a hero the driving conflict with magic ISIS seeking the magic stones was resolved and would've been an excellent place to end the anime.

Unfortunately, it continued. The anime has now entered THE FILLERING SHAMBLES LIKE A loving CORPSE INTO AN EVEN WORSE ARC THAT IS LIKE STILL AT THE BEGINNING IN THE MANGA SERIOUSLY WHAT THE gently caress
