Alright, there’s some of that sweet, sweet context I’d been craving from Peach Boy Riverside! Picking up right after the second episode, I mean the third episode, that is, the one where Hawthorn’s town got blown up, this week’s episode finally continues the formative story of Sally coming together with her companions and formally kicking off their travels together. Presented the way the show has been, we had an understanding of the ultimate results of these occurrences, but getting to see the Hows and Whys of the whole thing is refreshing after a month-and-a-half of gimmick-mandated nebulosity. For all my frustrations in following them, I do think characters like Frau and Carrot are kinda cool and want to properly engage with them. So late as it is, I’ll take this kind of backtracked build-up.
As we’d kind of guessed at, this part of the plot has a lot of informative hints…
