          Yes, and he originally was gonna make it obvious but he had to fight tooth and nail with Disney to even get the scene at the end where they look longingly into each other’s face while talking about love (iirc) and then shoot a cannon together (which is meant to represent that they are indeed a “canon” couple).

      I need to rewatch it soon. One of the best animated series of the modern times, right next to Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Dead End, Close Enough, Amphibia, BoJack, Infinity Train, Kipo, Vox Machina, Smiling Friends and YOLO.

      What a time to be alive… When I was a kiddo, the best stuff came from Japan, and now the Americans are really nailing it.

      Man, I was dubious of that show originally. It had this weird hype about it that usually ends up with the hyped thing not being enjoyable for me.

      But my kid liked it. And I was enforcing exercise as a mandatory part of the day. With the adhd involved, it was either allow tv during exercise and deal with delays when they got sucked in, or deal with delays when we’d “disagree” on how much of a given exercise had actually been done.

      So, we worked out that we’d share shows during exercise. One of the very first was owl house. Again, I was dubious as hell. But I started looking forward to it. By the time the final episode was available, I was hooked too. I cried like a damn baby right beside my kid during that.

      That show just works. The writing manages to thread a path that’s serious enough to give weight to it rather than being cartoony, without abandoning a bit of joy and humor to do so.

      It’s pretty much the best animated show I’ve seen since samurai jack. Totally different, but I find that it is as good.
