"With a little time... we're going to become a proper family..."
In spite of our insistence it was a bad episode, we have to admit, we were wrong. (Or, more likely, our tastes and perspectives have changed with time.) "Lop & Ochō" was a fantastic episode to revisit. We found so much more depth and appreciation for the story Geno Studio told this time around.
We talked Yuki Igarashi's notion of this episode's "wabi sabi," and the comfort you can still find in it's "imperfect" ending. Plus, the gorgeous animation, costumes, and the overarching theme of Imperial oppression.
Stick around for our Beyond the Outer Rim Segment, where Tommy shares his experience exploring the world of improv for the first time!
