You'll feel peace after watching this episode. I felt so emotional after watching the episode. Finally Bojack has come over his depression and you feel like cheering for him. Honestly, all the build up pays off after this episode. But I've to see what happens in the Finale Part 1. This was the perfect end as for now!

Bojack does it once again

This is an impressive episode. My heart broke when I saw Diane being finally happy.. And Bojack! He's finally happy! This episode made me feel nothing but peace and so much love. This a last season that I will always have in my heart. Bojack rules!
It's hard to start over.

Especially in the same surroundings.
BoJack has finally let go of rehab and feels ready to reconnect with everyone he cares about and get a fresh start. But as he visits familiar places he's also afraid he'll fall back into familiar patterns.
Season 6 delivers another excellent hit. We've come so far since the alcoholic, self-deluded ball of anger we saw in season 1.
Although this one deals with depression, it's actually quite peaceful throughout. For once everyone seems happy to see BoJack, even Princess Carolyn warms to him a bit after he comes with some encouraging words to her.
How the dynamic between BoJack and Todd has changed is especially interesting. He always liked him underneath, but instead of showing it got angry at him all the time due to his own psychological failings. Right now however, they show a mutual respect for each other. BoJack actually seems to be proud of Todd for doing what he loves. He even helps him get matched up with a girl later on after seeing she's looking for love too.
Hollyhock is also pleased to see him and it goes pretty well. His confusion over how easily she and her friend make up is pretty amusing. He's not used to a conflict being resolved so easily.
I gotta say though, it feels weird how she's BoJack's half-sister since they still have sort of a father-daughter bond with each other. Not to mention she is waaaaay younger than he is.
The meeting with Diane is sort of an awkward reunion. She's happy BoJack's doing better, but has a hard time admitting she's feeling pretty rough at the moment herself. When she shows her shoddy apartment and admits she doesn't think she deserves her boyfriend, BoJack reassures her that she doesn't have to be ashamed of who she is. It's easily one of the most wholesome moments they've had together.
My favorite scene however comes when he bumps into Mr. Peanutbutter. While initially disgruntled to see him he still tags along with him to a museum of classic sitcom memorabilia. He knows at this point being mean towards those who're just trying to be nice to you it ultimately pointless. Hell, this time he's more than glad to play along once Peanutbutter realizes they can now have an actual crossover together. BoJack trying to get a scene going but getting distracted by Peanutbutter crying with joy at the crossover actually happening made me laugh out loud, but is incredibly sweet at the same time.
One person he's not so happy to be reunited with however is Sharona, another in a long line of people he mowed over in favor of his own success in Horsin' Around. Thankfully, unlike most of those, he manages to properly apologize in the end and be forgiven.
In the end, that's what BoJack finally seems to be getting what he's wanted for so long. A chance to atone and be forgiven for the sins of his past.
This is epitomized in the final scene where BoJack joins a Middle Ages-style re-enactment of a church service when everyone gets to acknowledge the other person positively by saying "Peace be with you". He realizes he's actually a person worth loving, who shouldn't let himself drown in self-hatred.
Of course, I'm aware there's gonna be at least one or two depressing episodes coming up. This wouldn't be BoJack Horseman after all if everything worked out perfectly so soon. But it still helps to be shown life doesn't have to be a black hole you're never able to get up from. There are always the brighter spots worth fighting for.

Bojack Horseman returns for its sixth season. Although the wait was a little longer than expected due to the unionization in the Writer's Guild, the first half of the final chapter of Bojack Horseman, especially this episode, inspires hope, reflection, and true change. Of course the finale brings on some hardships coming Bojack's way, but it's so nice for the audience to witness the end of the episode, when Bojack says, "Peace be with you" to the other members, and sits back down once it is over, to feel relief and hope. The warmth and the hopefulness of this episode, despite the conclusion, one episode later, of the first half, is something to feel enlightened by. We can only hope peace is really with Bojack Horseman, at least for a little while. One of the most kind gestures to see so many characters all come together again, in themselves, and prosper as individuals. Todd making the first match on his asexual dating app, Diane welcoming her boyfriend back and finding happiness for herself in Chicago, Princess Carolyn patching things up with her former assistant (I can't spell his name) and finally being able to spend quality time raising her daughter whilst learning to manage being a working single mother, Mr. Peanutbutter and Pickles reuniting (in a sense), and, of course, Bojack finally living his life. He sits down at the end, and briefly takes a look into his future, instead of the past. He is happy there, and for once knows that it was possible and is possible for him to change.
Truly an amazing spectacle. A great first half of the last season of a truly extraordinary show.

...but then it became so much more. It was that scene with Bojack and Mr. Peanutbutter where they act out their own crossover episode where I was starting to feel something, and as the episode continued from there, the tears started coming out and I was still sobbing for over ten minutes straight, maybe even twenty minutes. I haven't cried like this to a piece of audiovisual media since I saw Room in the cinema, but even when I saw that film, I wasn't sobbing for as long as I did to this episode.
This isn't a proper review, I'm just writing all this because like another reviewer on here, I just had to comment on this.

After years of watching Bojack screw things up, it was so carthatic to see Bojack take responsibility for his actions, apologise to those around him, move on and maybe even learn to like himself. Even better was watching all the episode's strands come together in a beautiful montage showing all the characters seemingly wrap up their storylines and find happiness in an episode that would be the series finale for most shows.
But this isn't the series finale. This isn't even the season finale. And next episode in true Bojack style this will undoubtedly all come crashing down.
But I'm going to put that off for now, and just for a little bit enjoy one of TV's most troubled characters (a cartoon horse no less) find harmony just for a moment.

The beginning of the end for Bojack

Warning: Spoilers
In the penultimate episode of this final seasons first half, it feels like a few characters have finally found a light at the end of the tunnel. Diane seems to have come to peace with who she was and who she is as shown at the airport. Princess Carolyn gets Judah back and creates a schedule that gives her more time with Ruthie. Bojack payed a visit to every major character and those conversations and moments were very enjoyable to watch.(the crossover event being especially cool). As much as it felt like bojack was at peace in the end of this episode, It feels like there is a storm still brewing for the 9 episodes remaining and I'm sure it will be better than ever.
Peace

I've never written a review on Imdb before, but this episode was so outstanding, that it sparked some ideas for me. To be clear, I don't think this is the best episode of the show. This series contains so many jaw-dropping episodes, that an episode such as this barely hits the top five among all the amazing things I've seen so far. But yes, this was an amazing episode, full of character development, creative storytelling, heartfelt moments, heavy feelings, beautiful animation and wonderous music. The reason why I think this episode stands out from all the 66 previous ones, is because I believe, that this is the one and only episode so far, where in the end everyone is happy. Every single character either finds peace or solace. This never happened on this show before, and this is the reason why I felt that this calm moment was so powerful. Never before was there a moment of true peace on this show, and the fact that the episode was so masterfully put together, and we had to wait 5 years for a happy ending to happen made it so much more powerful than I ever expected a happy ending to be.
Flawless.

Honestly this episode feels like the end of the show to an extent. Everyone is happy, or working towards happiness. With the amount of episodes left, I truly hope things end similar to this one, because it warmed my heart. I almost cried when Bojack was speaking to Diane about her depression. Going through it for a while myself, this really, really spoke to me.

This episode made me just so happy. I almost cried happy tears when mr peanut butter got his crossover episode, the second maude said the thing about the cinnamon bun house i thought, she better be ace because she is perfect for todd, and judah finally got rehired! This is a nice break from many of the other intense upsetting episodes and if just will make you happy.
Emotional and peacefull!
and_mikkelsen27 February 2024
What an episode! This was just sn emotional but ultimately joyeous experience, cause BoJack felt something he had never felt before! This felt like a huge turning point for him!
This was about, not forgetting all the things you have done, but instead acknowledging that it happened.. take responsibility and accept that you are not perfect! Only then you might no true peace in youg heart!
Seeing BoJack suceed with something, was the best thing ever! You have always felt sorry for him, even at his lowest! You cheared for him.. and.now it pays off!
After this, i can not wait to see what they do with BoJack in thr last part!
