First half: so so gay 10/10
Second half: so so funny 10/10
Should be part of the official season honestly
After all the times Haru inspired Rin to fall back in love with swimming, Rin was finally able to return the favour. This episode was beautiful and touching and this show is just so good.
I cried so much this season. I think it was an unexpected place to end the show but they pulled it off gracefully, imo. The queen's unwavering determination to do the job she's been tasked with has been the through-line drawn across all the seasons and they doubled down on it in this ending in a very touching way. It's bittersweet, almost all bitter: you feel how truly alone she is and the absence of the person she could have been without this great burden. But she has support in her husband, who believes she is the only one fit for the job, as well as the nation's. And that has to be enough.
On a lighter note, they did Harry kind of dirty. I don't know if it was the casting, the script, the editing or all of the above, but aside from his only plot line being the Nazi costume, this last episode especially felt like Harry's villain origin story :laughing:. He was shooting death glares left, right and centre and looked like he was plotting to kill William at more than one point hahaha. Meanwhile this show has also been very gracious to Charles. Overall I'm sad to see it end, but it did have to at some point because it was starting to get uncomfortably close to the present day.
this show wants what succession has.
the only scene i actually enjoyed was camille firing her assistants (despite that whole situation being extremely fucked up). otherwise i am struggling to care about any of these characters, esp when they blatantly don't care about one another. very weird.
how much more fucked up can ash's life get?? god this was heartbreaking
was there ever a villain more camp than adam, the matador of love??
it's kind of crazy how this show makes me laugh out loud while human resources just lacks something.. maybe the humans they help aren't well developed enough? but anyway, this episode was hysterical and judd punching nick made my day.
Things really just constantly escalate on this show :joy:
Umm is this the most wholesome show ever made?? I can't stop smiling.
"I love you so much. But I need my tools."
"Fuck your tools."
"Very well. Okay. :smiley:"
I agree with all these comments, we just keep getting more mysterious hallucinations with no answers as to whether there is actual supernatural activity here or not. The end of S1 gave us no answers and the characters are generally unlikeable, and yet I'm still intrigued to keep watching. I enjoy adult Misty's scenes, as well as adult Shauna's.
But like, where is this all going???
holy shit this was one of the best rusicals ever. i feel like no one deserved to be eliminated this week.
loosey makes for truly entertaining tv - i've really warmed up to her lmao. and anetra is just a marvel
The credits scene with Ian and Mickey yaaaassss!
Also this episode is definitely giving me old Shameless quality and it's such a relief to finally see. This show is at its best when they get all the siblings in the same room and they call each other out on their shit. And each of the Gallaghers are getting more believable storylines that actually allow us to be invested in now.
