    this was arguably the best episode yet…

    Absolutely. Such a great, self-contained story this episode was. We got lots of worldbuilding this episode between the tour around the planet as well as the questions about how long since the humans left. We got some great animation with the random sentai group that showed up. Then finally, a really touching gesture between two very non-emotional creatures to end it on. I was really confused about the ending until that hot spring burst forth and it all clicked into my brain, just like the tanuki dancing around in the water.

      That was especially awesome, and it impressed me that they manged to be appropriately stereotypical without matching specific recognizable individuals/franchises.

      And with Ponko enthusiatically shipping them the whole way.
