Loving the new boys, but missing the Balance boys.
The cycle of emotions I went through as Lup sat Taako down to talk to him was crazy. Like liches was the first thing I thought of, but then I got excited at the thought of maybe Lup was asking him to be her best man at her and Barry's wedding. Then when she asked for Taako's help my mind flashed to his mastery of transmutation magic she could use to aid her in getting pregnant through the cycles and that's why she was hesitant to put forward the notion as it would've been highly dangerous and unknown if it could actually work. And then she revealed liches and I felt true fear wash over me as I realised that we are nearing Lup's death. This show will be the end of me I swear.
Imagine after the Hunger has been banished and the world saved, everyone simultaneously agreed that they need time away from it all. The world will never know what they did, and they're fine with that. The boys just want some time by themselves to remember what they were once like, and how to blend their past selves with their current selves. There's lots of things they couldn't remember that they could do, and a lot of loved ones they forgot and they need that time to just take it all in and accept it. There's an end scene where, in remembrance of the fantastic beach episode we just had, the entire crew (Lup included because I need to have my girl back alive), as well as team sweet flips and Ango, just go to a remote beach for a while. There they can reconnect and forgive one another, and be with their loved ones. Lup and Barry can finally be together after so many years, and Lucretia can finally chat with the boys like the best friends they are. At the end of the day, Taako sits out in the waves on his board, and teaches Angus to surf. It's peaceful and tranquil, and everyone is whole and happy. (And they all end up living right next to each other in a town they founded for the BoB members to integrate back into society. Familiar faces like Ren (who decided to travel after being freed from the bubble) and Lucas (who is forgiven by Lucretia) even show up and settle down. And the tres horny boys settle down in their house alongside Taako's Kravitz, and their adopted son Angus. All is well.)
