The cameos of the characters from Hirogaru Sky and Maho Girls (and yes I spotted Kabaton, Minoton, the Empress and Monda as well) were unexpected… but the wholesomeness of the episode was what really got me.
Yuki being all standoffish but taking a linking to the animal, the history of Sakura having been around since Iroha’s parents were young and then how all the other animals moved in to stop her 😭
I haven’t been as emotional during an episode for a while.
