"I realize having you in Po’s life didn’t mean less for me it means more for Po.” - Mr. Ping This is such a relatable quote. While it's natural to feel threatened by the influence of another adult, such as a teacher or step parent, in our child's lives, they're actually enriching their experiences.

Po's biological father and adoptive father relationship in the 3rd movie felt so wholesome.

It’s worth mentioning the two different names both Ping and Li chose for Po. Ping gave him the name Po, which in Chinese translation means “soul” or “spirit,” and Li gave him the name Little Lotus as in the Chinese culture is a high symbolism of beauty coming from the mud giving significance to the purity of the mind and heart. It’s valued in the Buddhist religion as “the seat of Buddha.” Thus, both names do link the connection and significance Po has to become the Dragon Warrior, in the 3rd movie, Po establishes a spiritual role, and the 2nd he focuses on the heart.

I'm so glad they didn't play the more obvious "Li is a liar or a deadbeat dad" type angle and went a much more wholesome blended family route

“Treat this like therapy, not the principal’s office.” I wrote that down and will say that for everyone that is reluctant to go to therapy

Just because a film is made for children, it doesn't mean that it can't teach them valuable life lessons. While Ping and Li are different, both personality and species wise, they both love Po, and overcome their differences to care for him together.

6:28 Fun fact: the 100th day after birth is a major milestone for Chinese people. It celebrates a child’s survival through an extremely vulnerable period of life, and the celebration brings good luck.

"GEESE ARE MURDER BIRDS!" take it from someone who lives in Canada, geese are the meanest Canadians you'll ever find 😂

I have the fan theory that pandas are naturally good at learning to give chi is BECAUSE they are so simple minded, they usually don't trouble themselves with questions like "who am I" cuz they just are themselves all the time.

My cousin had a kid from an abuser at 20. She got remarried to a wonderful police officer at 28. He surprised everyone and invited her son up to the stand as part of the vows. He promised he would always be there for him, not as replacement or new dad, but an additional one. The boy looked at him and said "its okay, you can be my new dad. my other one is never there anyways." I was a bridesmaid at that wedding and got a front row view and got teary eyed, it was such a beautiful moment.

I would honestly like to see a comparison of adoption with Tigress. Shifu adopted her when she was a young child, so she was old enough to remember the orphanage and the treatment she went through. Shifu also raised her in a strict environment, and while some of that was to control her strength, most of it was because of the truama of what happened with Tai Lung. Tigress finally comes into her own once she meets and becomes part of the Furious Five, but I just think it would be an interesting comparison for adoption in the same movie vein as compared to Po's experience

"Your son got mad at you. Welcome to parenthood." It’s so funny, but so true! You're kids will get mad at you a lot, especially as they get older and realize that you don't actually know everything. But it's important to be patient and loving with them, and when the kid is ready, try and talk things out and understand each other's perspectives.

I loved the ending with Shifu. “Where did you get that?” “This, oh, Oogway gave it to me in the spirit realm.” “Of course he did 🤦‍♀️.” “Hey, I think I mastered chi.” “Of course you did.🤦‍♀️ Can you teach me chi 🥺?”

As an adopted son, this movie has always resonated with me, and really helped me come to terms with my feelings with the whole situation. Even as an adult I still get emotional. It's a beautiful representation of adoption, and the confusion that can come along with it.

"You can love a lot more than you think you can" I don't know why but this is such a comforting statement

This reminds me of a statement that my grandma would often say in regard to growing families: "Love doesn't divide, it multiplies."

I was wholly unprepared for "I lost you once, I'm not about to lose you again" to be met with "you just did". That cuts so deep. No silly jack black kids movie has any right to be that raw and real...

As an FX animator, I DEEPLY appreciate Alan shouting us out! Our very niche talent to make great FX tends to get so overlooked because viewers are more prone to focus on the characters (and understandably so!) and story. Of course, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, we're the equivalent to stage ninjas; if the viewer doesn't notice our work at first, than we've done our job right to blend in with the scene! Still, it feels good to be seen and acknowledged! 💖

Ping's "I'm a bird, Po" just makes me giggle every time.

Mr. Ping is one of the best characters in this series. I thought he was going to be an annoying, selfish dad who does nothing but obsess over his business. But then he gave Po the help he needed in the first movie, he's shown to be a loving parent in the second, and then there's just everything in the third movie. I love this guy!

Hearing Ping say “a family” made me tear up. Such a beautiful thing for someone you love to show you.

I love that they committed to accuracy with the pandas with how dumb they are. Like seriously dumb. The official name for a group of giant pandas (the name panda was made to describe red pandas) is an embarrassment of pandas.

I remember that the day I found out that I was addopted is in my first day of fourth grade. My mum walked with me to the class to drop me off and one of my friends at the time walked up to us and asked if I was adopted. That evening my parents told my brother and me that we were (Not from the same parents). After a few years, I ended up going to therapy and my therapist told me that the reason I was so emotionally detached from my family was because I was adopted. I'd never felt that way in my entire life. They (therapist) told me that I should start calling my parents by their first names and it never sat right with me. I never, ever called them something other than mom or dad and it put a massive doubt in my families relationship and left us very far apart. Further than we were before I went to therapy. I quit going after about 1.5 years and my parents and I have never been closer. Turns out I just don't tend to get emotionally attached to people because I fear them leaving me and I want to have control over my life. Needless to say, that was a traumatising experience. But, my mum is still my mum, and my dad is still my dad. No matter who I came from, they raised me

Ping saying "Your son got mad at you. Welcome to parenthood," just sounds incredibly authentic to me. That's the best way I can describe it. James Hong has three children himself and 8 grandchildren. Being in his 90's, he's probably got several great grandchildren as well. He understands what new parents are feeling and seeing; a lot of the new parents he's met have been his own family, and that's on top of his own experience! It sounds like he's drawing on something he'd either want to say or even something he has said to one of his own family, and that just gives an incredibly intimate and authentic feel to his dialogue in that scene.

Po: You can fly?! Ping: I'm a bird, Po. *a few minutes later...* Ping: You can *FLY?!?* Me: He's a Panda, Ping. 😉🐼

I was adopted from china, with my birth name translating to little lotus bud, this movie has such a wonderful place in my heart. Adoption can be such a wonderful thing when done right. I was blessed to have that success even without knowing my birth parents

As somebody who is adopted, I was SO PLEASED with how _Kung-Fu Panda_ of all things actually handled it in a realistic and healthy way. Media is NOTORIOUSLY BAD at writing adoption stories and usually end up being on par with Lifetime movies, and it's one of my pet-peeves. Ping's chii answer of "a family" brought a tear to my eye because of that, because YES, YES, YES. Hooray for less-than-common family structures!!

When my dad started dating my step mom when I was fairly young, my mom at first was a bit standoffish at how ready my stepmom was to be a parent to me. My dad eventually said to her, "is it bad that our daughter has another person who loves her?" And I think that's an excellent way to put it, and its something that I adore about this movie, how they both come to the place of "it's not less for us, it's more for our son."

"You just did." The pain and anger. That is why Jack Black is a great voice actor. 11:47 "It means more for Po." This makes me cry so much. 13:35

One of my favorite quotes is life is essentially: "no matter how smart you are, you will spend most of your life being an idiot". It's a reminder that everyone, even the smartest people, do dumb things and have areas where they aren't that smart.

My favorite part of the third one is the "Double-dad defense", clearly the most epic part and the perfect way to show the new bond between Li and Mr. Ping. THEY ARE BOTH HIS DAD!

I absolutely love how Li IMMEDIATELY accepts that Ping has taken care of Po and that he is his dad, but he also wants to be his father as well.

All three of these movies made my girlfriend cry. Especially this exchange in the third movie: "Well, I'm not in his life. Not anymore." "Your son got mad at you. Welcome to parenthood."

The scene where Po almost has his energy stolen and the whole village helps always makes me cry. That sense of community and love for the uniqueness of everyone around you is so easy to feel but so hard to put into words.

"Goose are...murder birds." Now I kind of want to see Jono and Alan play Untitled Goose Game. Maybe some kind of charity stream? 😆

16:33 "if you're a parent, you need to think about what your kid's going through before what you're going through" this line just stuck with me...

What I love about the Kung Fu Panda trilogy it revolves about Po’s identity throughout the films. His body in the first film, his mind in the second film and lastly his spirit in the third film.

Something interesting about Li is that in some of the original drafts, he was very conflictive and crashed with Ping much more harshly, because it created easy conflict for the story. They decided that this was better and im so glad they did

This movie showed that one shouldn't have to take place over the other. If both dads love their son, just as Ping said, it won't mean less for them, but more for the child they're raising! :D

I think another thing that made Po want to know where he came from more is the fact that his entire culture was thought to have been killed and then he finds out that they're still alive, so naturally he wants to know everything about it, and the one person who is able to teach him all that is his father, who also thought was dead

I know it wasn't mentioned because it doesnt fit the topic (and that's fair!) but I still think it's criminal you guys didn't linger a bit longer on the flashback of how Pos mother saved him. The art style changes and the music, all leading up to her sacrifice, such a beautiful and desperately tragic moment of love. I cried so much and I bet Alan did too. The Kung Fu Panda trilogy is peak cinema.

I'd really love to see some villian therapy for Shen or Tai Lung!! I'd like to see the relationship between Tai Lung and Shifu be discussed in particular, y'all could go into good intentions and high expectations for kids. It's also notable how Tigress suffered from Shifu's trauma.

One last thing. The “more for Po” scene made Ping one of my new favorite characters in the franchise.

Kung Fu Panda is probably my favourite Dreamworks series, and even though it isn’t as personal for me as with others, some of its moments still hit hard. Im so happy seeing you continue with 2 and 3 after covering the first one.

I love how Ping just isn't phased at all at 13:50. He's just like "yep, sounds about right"

as someone who lost their mother when they were 17, their grandparents when they were 18, and a close friend at 20. I've also gotten to experience that love can only grow, and making that room in my life to love, give and take care of others has been a healing part of my life. I take what I've learned from those whom I've lost and spread their love to others.

I know this isn’t the most popular of the trilogy, but the story with Ping and Li is just something I’ve always loved and felt envious about. I grew up with divorced parents since I was about 4 and I just grew up believing that when parents get divorced they are supposed to be against each other. And it got worse when my step dad came around as I always had a strong bond with him. Just seeing that despite they are not together but Li and Ping still rally for Po and bond over their love for him was just awesome

My favourite line out of the entire movie is granny panda calling herself “a lethal fighting machine”

Loved the growing dynamic between Po’s 2 dads. It’s like “Emily Windsnap and the Castle in the Mist”: a book I read as a kid, where the main character’s parents have to learn how to co-parent. Like in this movie, Emily unintentionally shoves aside her mom to get to know her dad. Emily’s mom is like Mr. Ping, in that she’s raised Emily her entire life and now feels replaced. Emily’s dad is like Li, in that he seems more fun and has way more in common with her but doesn’t quite know how to parent.

There is nothing wrong with having more people who love you. This is what my (adopted) dad told me when we talked about how my biological father had reached out and become part of my life as well.

Pandas are species which evolved to eat just one type of food, be unable to do almost anything else and even procreating very rarely so them being stupid makes total sense :-D

I'm a Guatemalan adoptee (transracial and international) and I'm really glad you all reacted to this. I'll share a little bit (or a lot I guess lol) of my story regarding both parts. My (adoptive) mom chose to have an open adoption, so I've known my birth mother and a lot of my birth siblings since I was just a little one. I'm really grateful for this; I've kept up my Spanish and learned a lot about the culture as such. However, what's hardest for me is that both my birth family and adoptive family (sans my mom and my birth mom), kind of act as if I'm not adopted and that we're "family" in the same way that they are with everyone else on their side of the family. This makes it tough, especially since I am not the same race as my adoptive family. When it comes to my blood family, they have recently begun contacting me and speaking about me as if I've been their sister and with them all along, but they barely know anything about me. Yes, I'm their blood family, but I don't really consider them "family" in the way that they're acting because we just don't have that bond. I still care about them and I'm happy that I have direct contact with them now, but it's brought up some complicated feelings. So even though I've had an amazing mom that's supported me 100%, the rest of my family kind of just doesn't get it, and that makes it tough. I love them and overall consider myself so fortunate, but like every adoptee, I go through struggles too. And that's why I think it's important to talk about the subject, because that way, more people will feel like they're being heard. I wrote a short film about this topic and people seemed to learn a lot from it, which made me feel more validated. Hearing y'all talk made me pretty emotional. I've always been open about this topic, but lately, I've been thinking on it more and how it has affected me. Now I gotta rewatch Kung-fu Panda lol

Stumbled on your content while I was struggling to grieve and cope with a trauma. Your channel gave me the laughter, comfort and radical acceptance I needed to seek further support. What you do matters and I hope you realize how impactful your work is. Thank you for being there for me in a very difficult time.

I've watched all of the kung-fu panda movies several times and seen most of the important clips dozens of times. All that being said every time i see the Po needs both of his dads scene i cry. It is just so perfectly written. Po's dad finally comes to terms with the fact there is room for both of them in Po's life and Po's biodad learns no parent is perfect and mess up all the time. In the end both want what is best for Po but that is something only Po can decide and the two of them can only support and guide him the best they can.

Things i learn at kungfu panda was, every question Po ask in his life. Mr. Ping always know the answer. And he always answer it at the beginning of the movie but Po always didnt listen until he experience it self.

Kong Fu Panda has a very special place in my heart. I'm the result of co parenting by divorce. But all three of my parent figures took the approach that another person loving my children can never be a bad thing. I've had my fights with all of them, but that lesson is the most precious thing I take from my upbringing, and is the reason why I will always say without hesitation that my parents are amazing

I like the DND ruling of Intelligence and wisdom. A intelligent person with low Wisdom can fix a broken microwave but will still burn their pizza.

"I realize having you in Po’s life didn’t mean less for me it means more for Po.” Is my absolute favourite line in this movie. I try to keep it in mind daily to be more tolerant towards others

Six years ago, I married a widower with 5 kids, ages 5-13. Then we had one more. It's been a fascinating and exhausting lesson in how kids relate to parents and vice-versa. Only two of the kids really remember their biological mom, and the difference between them and the younger kids is noticeable. What surprises me the most is how intensely the youngest of the five (who can't remember "Kim-mom" at all) is VERY much like me. I've come to the conclusion that the nature-vs-nurture question has different answer for each individual. I would love it if you guys could find a movie that accurately portrays a single person marrying into a widowed-with-kids situation. 'Cause Nanny McPhee and Sound of Music make it seem much simpler than it is! There's very little information out there about this type of situation, as most books and radio shows assume that it's more of a co-parenting type of thing. Us full-time add-on parents usually get just a brief mention, but not a full look into how our situation is different.

This is so far a good 3 part series. I badly want to adopt, but I am very nervous of that moment when the kid will want to meet the birth parents. I'm ok with and I would never hide it from them, but I need to get ready for that sting and understand it.

I really loved how Po was able to reconnect with his biological dad but still remember and care for his adopted dad. They all had a great dynamic

It's not often that you get a trilogy where all three movies are pretty much at the same level. This is one of those exceptions as far as I'm concerned. I don't think my mother ever reached the point that Po's dads did, but my stepmom has. Her family is as much a part of mine as the people in the family I was born to. Her generation has known me since I was 9 or 10, so a little more than 80% of my life. I've done the math. While my mom never reached that point, one thing she _did_ do was make an effort to let us make our own minds up. She consciously avoided trying to poison us against our father or stepmom. There were plenty of things I missed out on, including a closer relationship with my father - I think that has more to do with him than anything - but I didn't have either parent trying to turn us against the other. Mom didn't reach the level of "enlightenment" as shown here but she was definitely far more conscious of what she was doing than some of my friends parents. I always enjoy watching these. Pulling out the deeper meetings of literature and movies has never been one of my strengths. But with your explanations, both the psychology and the general cinematography, so yes, both of you, I get a better picture of why a particular movie or set of movies hits me the way they do. And then something that I thought was magical in the first place becomes even more so. "It doesn't stop being magic just because you know how it works." Terry Pratchett

The part that got to me the most, in this movie, is when Li tells Po he did it to not lose his son again and, by doing it, made Po go through losing the people he loves... I mean, I get it. It's hard to think straight when fears take hold. But making the one you love experience what you are trying to avoid is... it hurts. Every time I watch this movie. This just hurts.

Adoptive mama here, and the key to all parenting is putting the kids first, especially if they're going through hard stuff. Their hard stuff is the priority. My kids are 16 (came via foster care), 7 & 6. 7 and 6 are biological brothers, adoption is very open. 16 was a big learning curve because of trauma. Her adoption is also open, but I had to learn how to love her biological mum when she had hurt my girl so much. That took unexpected work, but for me, it taught me so much about the nature of love - that there's always room for more, love is limitless. The more I loved the sweet and broken woman who brought my daughter into the world, the more I loved my daughter, and the more love I had to share. With all of our kids' unique stories, the first rule for us is to tell the truth, but keep it age appropriate. So they don't know every detail, some of the details aren't mine to tell them, but everything they know is true. My mom's family is full of 'secrets' and shameful things that no one talks about. There is nothing shameful about the origins of my amazing children. Their stories are full of love, sacrifice, pain, and struggles, but mainly love. Adoption is not easy. But I'm grateful that I get to be a mom, even when it's hard. Because every one of us has parts of our stories that are hard, that makes us human. The key is choosing to love.❤

The thing you said about people seeing different sides of us, was explained so well. It also reminded me of a play in a series called "Bloom Into You" The play was about this girl who wakes up in the hospital with amnesia. During her stay, she gets visited by her family, school president, and partner. They each describe a different version of her, which confuses her even more. It brings up questions about who she really is. She doesn't know and everyone isn't really helping. She thinks she has to choose between the 3. Then, if I remember correctly, she talks to the nurse. An outside person who didn't know who she was until her stay at the hospital. The nurse says "Why choose one? Why not be the person you are now? You are still you." Something like that. Anyway a wonderful video as always!

The pandas are just a perfect reason as to why intelligence and wisdom are 2 different stats in dnd

My parents are divorced and have been for... 15 years? Somewhere in there. Anyway. Around the 4th year (if I recall) they chose to live together again but also with my mom's husband. They made this decision for me. They felt it would make my life better to not bounce houses and to have both of my parents. I'm sure there was some contention in the beginning between my dad and mom's husband, but if there was, they never let me know about it, and honestly, I appreciate that. Having the perception that everything was okay is far better than the opposite. I know things are okay because even after I moved out 6 years ago, they've continued to live together. I also have to thank my mom's husband. After he proposed to her, he asked me to go to the store with him. On the drive, he said these exact words "So, you know I asked your mom to marry me. And I know your dad is still in your life. I'm not taking that from you, and I have no desire to be your dad or even your step dad. If you want to call me that, you can, but you don't need to. I'm just the guy marrying your mom. We cool?" I hadn't even considered that being a possibility, but it really helped shape my perspective of the situation and eased my mind to never have to think about that. Jono saying his stepson just has another person in his life to care about him hits home. I feel that's how my mom's husband has always thought about it, too.

I love how the Panda's 'kung fu' technique seems based off Tai Chi, which is an art made for relaxation and meditation - yet a further extension of the lazy panda trope they've played into the whole series. It seems that they thought out the whole trilogy before making the first one, given the strong themes and continuity. I'm really impressed with how the whole series is one good movie after another - they all tie in so well and are very well-made. Such wonderful films.

I would love to see you guys react and talk about The Outsiders! It’s one of my favorite movies and books with an amazing cast! I feel like between tha whole gang there is plenty of things to be diagnosed. I think it would be a great family therapy episode.

"that means more for Po" was such an impactful moment

This really resonates with me. I adopted two kids whose mother is my wife. It was a very rocky situation with their biological Dad but am thankful for how things are turning out.

The Double Dad Defense is one of my favorite movie moments. Its beautiful and hilarious, and it makes me happy.

I've always liked how in the scene where they're rescuing Po, Mr. Ping Said "a family" instead of just "a dad" or "a parent". It really shows how much he's grown from the whole ordeal, and that he no longer sees this as a battle for their son, rather more as a chance for Po to have a bigger family and a better life. His development was probably my favorite in the movie. Thinking you're gonna lose your child must be hard (I wouldn't know lol), so it's nice to see him finally come around in the end. What a great character!

What my dad taught me was that a relationship can only truly be effected by the two people involved in that relationship. There was a period when my mom left my dad because she wanted to be happy, and I would only see him about once a month because we lived 9 hours away. I guess because we weren't as close as he wanted us to be he would blame my mom, saying that she was turning me against him instead of looking at himself. Which is super mess up since even after she left him, he got in a motorcycle accident ans she nursed him back to health. It's been 19yrs since they split and I'm not in speaking terms with my dad and he still refuses to believe that he's at fault for the deterioration of our relationship. It's always felt like my feels and perspectives always take a back seat to my dad's, and if my perspective is different he acts like I'm stupid or don't know what I'm talking about because I'm the kid and he's the parent and I should just listen to him. Which is the main reason our relationship fell apart. This channel has really help a lot in understanding why I've felt so bad for so long when it comes to my dad.

Thank you so much Alan for acknowledging and expressing amazement at the work of ALL the artists involved in creating something of this caliber, especially in this time where the "tools" of technology are changing so rapidly. I work in a creative field and explaining how the movies and mainstream media you often see includes SO MANY PEOPLE and SO MUCH TIME - I can not tell you how many times I have had to go through the spiel.

Thank you, Jono, for sharing your personal experience about co-parenting ❤

I love the Kung Fu Panda trilogy sm! Thank you for this insightful therapy. I have a new perspective helping me overcome jealousy in my friendships.

i would love to see you analyzing how they handle DID in Two Face specifically in the (appropriately) two part episodes "Two-Face pt 1 and 2" from Batman: The Animated Series. part of me's like "well they explain it better than most other two face media" and the other part's like "it was the 90's how much did they actually know"

17:43 The soundtrack in these movies is just so next-level, no matter how many times I rewatch this I keep getting goosebumps and teary-eyes.

Amazing story from a franchise that did something rare: it only got better as the movies went on. One relationship I would love to see being analyzed by you guys would be between Rocky and Paulie. Sounds odd but think you would be able to bring great perspective into an underrated friendship. Once again gentleman thank you and your team for these wonderful insights.

I cannot express how much Kung Fu Panda has had an impact in my life. I love Po 'cause i relate to him in a lot of ways but when the third movie came into theaters, i just absolutely loved it (all three tbh). It was like having this heartwarming scenes, but also action, and comedy and quite important lessons like Li and Ping. Even Shifu when he teaches Po what he needs to achieve in this one. I love Po's friendship with Tigress and how she really appreciates him, she was the one running to hug him first. But overall, i love that you guys see and awknowledge these things. Thank you ❤

I love Kung Fu panda It's my whole childhood

Surprised they didn’t include the clip where Po figures himself out as the son of a goose, son of a panda, teacher, student, etc.

A lot of Kung Fu Panda's humour works is because everybody is deadpan or serious, playing it straight against Po's and the other pandas' wilder characters. Lotus is also a symbol of rebirth in Chinese culture, Po originally being named Lotus ties into him becoming the dragon warrior, and another rebirth of discovering his father and others like him.

This was great the Dynamic between Po’s fathers was nice these breakdowns on the character’s relationships and mentality are great. There’s this show the Owl house which has all sorts of great characters and villains and their struggles I’m just curious on your take of their psychology especially the main villain Belos because your villain therapy videos are so informative and great, they really help me understand what goes on in their minds like with Wenwu

When Ping comforts Li and tells him about the ups and downs of being a parent, that's when I really lose it. Ping's empathy for hurt Li is stronger than his jealousy, so he decides to share what being Po's dad is like. Such an utterly beautiful moment and it's an animated goose and panda delivering it.

I had seen a comment somewhere about how the Kung Fu Panda trilogy is the exploration of Po's body, then mind and soul, each movie having each. It just seems so right to me.

When I lived with my aunt one thing I hated was when my uncle tried to parent me right from the start (i was 16 at the time) and my aunt knew this was wrong because I grew up without a dad and never had one she even explained how he needed to be more of a friend to me than a parent. I even saw a show where a stepdad said "you dont have to call me dad if you don't want to you can call me whatever you want" the key is to wait for the child to call you mom or dad instead of you saying I'm your new mom or new dad.

One of the most beautiful things about Allen, as a filmmaker who knows so much about the mechanics of film making is so intensely affected by movies. This man doesn’t love story telling through film, he is in love with story telling through film.

the lesson about how (if we allow it) we always have room in our heart for more is AMAZING and reminds me of Over The Moon and the movie's core song "Let Love In"

I always look forward to when you guys upload. Thanks for helping us through things, as well as keeping us entertained. We love you, Internet Dads!

I’m not sure if they’ve reacted to this already but I really want to hear their take on the animated film, ‘Over the Moon’. It’s about this young girl who lost her mom and has to cope with her dad dating and it touches on topics of grief and moving on. I loved it and it made me ugly cry. I think it might be a good episode (also a great film! i definitely recommend for everyone to watch it ☺️)

Seeing these two parts makes me wonder how when I adopt down the road, how it will go.

Jono's monologue in the end had me in tears. I hadn't thought of the purpose of life being that way for a long time. Thanks for making realise.

As a stepson who’s also a Tylor, any kid would be lucky to have a Jonno in their life.

This was a really nice, sweet perspective on adoption/blended families! Love it! That line about 'not less for me, more for Po' gets me every time, along with the 'so your son got mad at you' line! lol. Ping is such a good Dad! Love this! And love how you showed that Li wasn't really WRONG fully with what he did - like Ping said, wrong thing for the right reasons! Feels!

Somebody after knowing John for a bit: "What do you do for a living?" "Oh, I'm a therapist." "Really? How?"

So, 7:55 gets me every single time. The joy and immediately following crying when Ping starts to go away is the most heartbreaking thing in all your videos, guys 😢. Thank you for sticking to the reality of our emotions (even if it hurts).

I was waiting for the double dad defense scene in this episode and it was missed at least in this cut. This is still amazing! I love the Kung Fu Panda movies and theyve always pulled at my heart strings. Amazing work!

I love how Mr. Ping gets defensive over Po when Li shows up. The goose loves his son no matter the species difference, and papa's gonna protect his son from possible danger. Its so nice that Li and Po never wanted to push Ping away while they were bonding too, even if he wasn't directly involved he was always there if and when his son needed him
