Sorry it didn't work for you!

For me, I sort of liked that it wasn't an upgrade that was about defeating a monster; it was an upgrade that was about how much more emotionally healthy these characters had become? So much of the metaphorical weight in this show is about how we accept and balance our emotions, and an upgrade that's down to Ryotaro and Momotaro understanding the value of the other Imagins... man, that feels like a pretty good point to introduce the Teamwork form.

It's fitting that what is essentially the Imagins' final form, is them literally coming together through Momotaros' sentimentality for a bunch of people who he used to merely tolerate, before it grew in to a very real camaraderie and friendship.

And after they were all so unhelpful when he was trying to learn how to swim during the Summer Vacation short! Momo's so heroically forgiving.

But yeah, I was not expecting the movie epilogue to be Momo Cares About His Friends! Pleasant surprise!
