I think it kind of was. He'd already hit his head beforehand. If you notice, right before that, she also gets all shiny, like she's a frigging Gundam or something, and before that, Izumi attacks Kouichi with a whale that looks like some sort of daikaiju shark. It's just supposed to be a brief scene of all the kids playing. Yuuya and Naoya threw Takako in the ocean, and then Naoya and Kouichi do the same thing to Reiko, resulting in her losing her glasses.

It's as if the writer said "Hey, this a really fucking bleak show. Let's lighten it up by having them all go to the beach!" while secretly he's thinking And then I'll kill one of them and drive another one insane! Mwahahaha!

That said, Junta died trying to get her ball back for her. So she probably blames herself for his death on some level. That probably doesn't help her mental state.
