While I love LGBT rep as a lesbian myself, I actually preferred the girls not getting together. The core of this show was the friendship between those three. Not romance. Sure you can ship them in your personal head canons, but personally I loved that it was platonic.
Same, I feel there's a time and a place for everything, and this show's place was to tell a story about toxic friends and how to move from there
Same here! I'm pan and I appreciate the representation (gay newts, the robo girls, that gay couple in the background, X) while still having building and maintaining healthy friendships be the core
The girls leaving Amphibia was honest to God soul crushing for me, I hope Marcy's Journal can shed some life on a possible reunion.
I think it was just confirmed by matt, that in marcy's journal, terrie and mr. X will be working together, and that they will call the trio to come to them for something... ig you can guess what that is..
@@jackhall4767 they couldn't open a portal bigger than like an arm without calamity power so the most realistic thing I can see happening is Anne being able to call her old phone she left with sprig
@@cammo353 and send them the latest season of Suspicion Island. Nothing sucks more than being invested in a story you can’t finish!
@@cammo353 that was just a basic rudimentary portal. With actually government funding, I wouldn't be surprised if they would be able to open a proper one
@@ZekromAndYugiAndDrago123 they said in the episode that they'd theoretically need a bigger power source to make a larger portal and the military grade one they stole from Mr X made the same sized portal, it wasn't until Anne channelled calamity power into it that it became large enough for travel
Man, but What A Finale. I only wish more series could end like that, in such a satisfying way. It’s bittersweet, sure, but it also feels completely earned. They’ve all grown so much, we see that, but there’s also enough there for us to just... make up headcannons. I’m still waiting for the inevitable wave of Fanfiction.
i've had 2 or 3 in my drafts for a bit, I think I'm gonna try and write them some time soon!
I give the show a lot of credit for committing to its bittersweet ending.

Amphibias future actually wasn’t a 10 year jump. The 10 years later came after the Amphibia sequence. Which explains how Mrs. Croaker was still alive. Because that distracted me more than the unholy bird snails
Or how Maddie's sisters were still tadpoles, albeit it with legs now.
@@phoenixado9708 Just realised this implies the snail-bird hybrid was concieved shortly after the moon battle
"As they remember that all of this trauma is digital and non-fungible, making it actually worthless" - brilliant line, right there.
16:38
OK so for the people who don't know, the Frog world/Amphibia future thing is actually months later, if you look at the storyboards they were originally gonna say that but they cut it out for some reason (probably cause of time)
So just letting y'all know
Frog world/Amphibia: Few months
Human world/Earth: Ten Years
16:51 Also, if you look at the scene where Frobo is watering the plants infront of the Planter's house, you can see 3 of them, which means that they had 3 or 4
Also they're apparently the species is called "Snirds"
@@OyasumiGalaxy Since in the storyboards it says "Several months later," I suppose so
If you wanna see the storyboards themselves I can give them to you
Oh yeah, I heard about this too. I think Matt also confirmed this on twitter.
@@OyasumiGalaxy yeah kinda, that would also explain why Rosemary, Ginger and Lavender only still just got their legs
Why is nobody talking about how Domino actually was (technically) an inter dimensional being like drug Anne said?
Is nobody going to talk about how Darcy’s helmet is basically Griffith’s from “Berserk”?!
This show went for the deep cut anime references this season with “Berserk” and “Magic Knight Rayearth”.
oh thank god, i thought i was the only one getting rayearth vibes from their magical girl designs.
Finally something to watch instead of listening to my friend talk about how hes gonna build a house in a game
@@shadowmasterking6542 Darcy is the hero for all the core stuff and Marcy is.. well.. Marcy is Marcy
They call me a sociopath. I am a puckish rogue. I am a hopeless Romantic. I just wanted to be united with my love. Also I like Asian Pacific Girls.
Sarcastic Chorus: *Plays "X Gon' Give It To Ya" for the robot instead of the character literally named Mr. X*
Me: "You were on the edge of greatness. Now, I must judge you as a heretic."
I knew Anne was going to be powerful by the end of the series but I didn’t think she would get this powerful
In Disney you either have a strong LGBT+ representation and your show is getting the boot or you have an easy to censor LGBT+ representation and your show gets three seasons.
@@calebtherandom8017 Sasha is canonically bisexual. There’s a sticker on her car windshield, but that’s all they do with it.
Well it wasn't the lgbt representation that made the owl house or amphibia canceled. Owl house was mainly canceled due to the ratings for season 1 not doing good. And since it was during the start of covid times, they decided to cut the last season's budget since they already got the second season order.
Amphibia was always going to be 3 seasons, due to them airing every episode every day for season 1, getting good ratings and being in 2019, allowing them to get two more seasons, which Matt used to tell the story.
Or maybe you can tell an actual good story with great characters instead of shoving LGBT down children's throats and get a three seasons. Just a thought.
@@OverLorD768 since when does modern Disney care about the good quality of the story and the characters?
I personally enjoyed every moment of season 3. They did an outstanding job of emotionally connecting to the viewers. It was a wonderful ride watching the show from 2019-2022. I’m still in a bit of denial but thank you to Matt and the crew for this masterpiece. Goodbye Amphibia
I mean I thought it was the worst season but that’s just cause season 3a kinda sucked
Actually, Matt confirmed that the time Skip at Amphibia was about 9 months. The 10 year-jump only happens in the next scene 😅
The time skip that we are shown for the frogs is only 9 months according to some of the creators on twitter
My little brother predicted Andreas being a robot early because of the sound effects used on him.
Like I never noticed that is some good foreshadowing. I was high-fiving him.
I’ve been a fan of amphibia since the first episode premiered and seeing the show slowly develop into this masterpiece that everyone loves is truly amazing. No other show will be able to fill the hole in my heart that amphibia will leave now that it's over but I'm glad that Matt got to finish the story. Amphibia is definitely one of my top 5 favorite cartoons ever.
I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, some of the show is boring filler instead of plot, not hating, just saying
@@blur3611 Counterpoint, I think the filler was actually really important to the show overall. Developing the characters through lighthearted stories can help the audience get more attached to them, and in this case for most people it has worked. The creator himself has said that he doesn't consider any of the show true filler. While I would say that there is definitely some, I would also say that it doesn't really matter what constitutes as filler or not. An episode doesn't have to move along the plot to be good. One of my favorite episodes is Wally and Anne, which has almost no significance to the main plot. Also I'm not trying to take a dig here, but Owl House is no masterpiece either. I'm not claiming amphibia is one, although I enjoyed it a ton, but both shows have flaws, and I simply happened to get more attached to the characters and world of amphibia.
@@Tebsi_a can you leave more useless comment than that because i am here to compete.
I think the reason the herons were inducted into Andrias' army comes from the line where Hop-Pop says they've been terrorizing the valley for years; given their color schemes, they appear to be the same pair that Sasha and Grime fought off in Season 1, and the entire toad army - Grime included - were terrified of them...
I think there's a good chance they're more formidable (and possibly larger) than most herons in Amphibia. Something like that whole story around the shark named Submarine. Also worth mentioning that the Amphibia epilogue was only 9 months later - I do agree about Polly tho, I wish her head shape was closer to Sprig's and other grown frogs
"Amazing what you can get away with if you don't call it what it is"
I'm using that.
"Amazing what you can get away with if you don't call it what it is" *shows Yunan and Olivia together*
I love EVERYONES time skip designs!!!
Also Anne will become a God once she dies of old age? Lucky!
You miss one of the best lines
"I JUST WANTED AN ESSAY!!!"
About the whole "Anne backup" stuff, I don't think she is a clone. Rather the guardian created a copy of Anne's body and put her soul in it. Anyone else thinks that?
Anyone who has seen Avatar should know that this "Backup" thing is just Reincarnation,
and that YES: Anne's soul was placed into a replica of her own body, since the original was "Thanosed"
Personally, no. The guardian calls her a copy, and her shoe is now on the right side instead of the left. The guardian said they copied her, not transferred her soul. It's why they said she is both dead and not dead. The original Anne died, but the copied Anne is indistinguishable from the original Anne, so they're basically the same person, but also not. It reminded me a lot of the game SOMA.
@@SwedishAlicorn Yep, like SOMA where you reach the mind transfer device to ARC cyber space... And they show how protagonist reaches the safe heaven after transfer... Until they show that original is still there panicking at the uplink terminal and then they hit you with revelation that device creates a COPY of your mind as you simply can't cut and paste active mind. And you did it several times throughout the game already... And this reveal changes everything - your original body and mind have died long ago and the one who reached the safe heaven? Is a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy.
And only one of "You" found out terrible truth, abandoned, left behind.
So yeah... Original Ann died and a Copy took her place - thus is why the one who "survived" comments how much "existentional dread" such knowledge can bring.
The timeskip in amphibia wasn't 10 years, it was 9 months.
I honestly love the character development from Sasha especially in Season 3, from her trying to be controlling all the time, to only taking control when she needs to. The scenes where she becomes more open about her feelings are standouts to me.
Also, Sasha being bisexual brings a new perspective on her character. I think that she’s been so controlling in the past because she’s afraid of revealing her true self out of fear of rejection from her friends (and out of fear of being rejected by both of her divorced parents) and losing control over her life, but instead, her domineering nature hurts her rather than helps her.
16:50 I was also surprised at first until I remembered the type of mixed creatures Amphibia has and realized this weird hybrid fits right in too lmao
amphibia is the goat of shows, no one can tell me otherwise and you can make paint drying funny so you earned my sub
Amphibia truly is a masterpiece that I honestly didn’t see coming at first 2 years ago when I first watched the show after 2A was finished. Similar to the first time I watched Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia on Netflix and before I knew it, I had binged watched the entire series and it’s three sequel series.
Both cartoons that are underrated masterpieces that deserve more attention and praise.
Gonna be honest, during the epilogue I saw the bird and snail nuzzling, and I thought it was cute. I did NOT notice the snail-bird. Good lord.
I feel like I'm one of the only few people who love episodic shows anymore. Just turning something on to watch without having it connected to other episodes and get satisfied with the 20 minutes experience as a whole. It reminds me of the shows I always watched as a kid.
same, and by extension I feel like one of few fans who actually enjoyed the LA episodes in S3 :/ I had to take a break from TOH because it was getting so heavy each week
Seriously, is no one gonna talk about how the cult episode is just an episode long midsommar reference
Literally just finished this series five minutes ago to see that this video got uploaded. Perfect timing, but the video is still a little blurry from my tears 🥲
GOD I'm gonna miss this show! it's grown to be propably my favourite show of all time, I love it so much! it filled the Star shaped hole in my heart and now I have an amphibia shaped hole I somehow need to fill. Also I am going to cry over this video because any footage of the finale makes me tear the fuck up!
This show is okay, but the finales always strike gold, so it can overlook the flaws
Amphibia is amazing, shows like this come rarely nowadays. This show is one in a million
it was just... SO perfect. I, not being from LA, nor California, nor the US, LOVED the human episodes and would have loved a whole season dedicated to the human world and a whole other season dedicated to the war. Just would have been fun to explore both parts of season three a bit more, but maybe that's just me. I LOVED the bittersweet ending, showing that while the girls will probably always be good friends (shared trauma and all that) they won't be the most important people in each other's lives anymore. And that's OKAY. They're all just thriving and I love it. And back at Amphibia, everyone else is thriving which is also great.
I hope some book or something is going to confirm this, but I hope Terrie never gave up on making portals to other worlds and they'd be able to keep the portal open for long enough for Sprig and Anne to communicate via phone? It's basically The Owl House logic and it is set in the same universe, so... and after ten years, maybe they'll be able to create a proper portal?
And the great thing about all that is we know that's going to happen. The audience is obviously thinking of a million different ways Anne could travel to Amphibia again. So they don't need to mention it. They can focus on the message about change and facing what's out there (same message as Gravity Falls now that I think about it, no one is surprised though). They can show how even if they never see each other again, the Plantars and the other Amphibians and Anne and the others will be okay. Because it's such an important message to teach kids and adults that even if things completely change, you'll still be okay. I just love it so much.
Also, idk about you guys but I really thought the whole "Leaf is a Plantar" thing would be a much bigger deal? Even just to Andreas?? But I loved that it was an Amphibian (Sprig) who redeemed him, not Anne. Loved that detail.
Also, almost cried when Marcy legit said "nat 20!" like my little nerd heart OMG.
Okay that's all. Thanks for reading my rant!
Anne literally had the power of God and anime on her side.🤣
"Anne and the Plantars have a competition to see who can get dehydrated the fastest and the winner is the audience"
Amazing line
Love the show overall, but man I'd be lying if I said that Season 3 wasn't all over the place for me. The characters I cared most about getting back to were Marcy, Sasha, and the people we already knew in Wartwood. So I'm not sure why we needed a half a season detour to LA that just seemed to exist to ignore everything that happened in True Colors.
But beyond that, I am glad that the story at least got to reach a proper conclusion in an age where everything seems to be at risk of sudden cancellation. The plot didn't always focus things where I wish it did, but it was still a heartfelt enough sendoff, and give props the the crew for what they managed to make with Disney higher-ups probably breathing down their necks every step of the way.
Season 3 was a mixed bag for me, while I certainly wished the consequences of everything that happened in True Colors would be more prominent but the show still did well.
Dissatisfying that we didn’t get more on Marcy/Darcy until the finale but that’s me.
I feel like I could go on a rant on what I don’t like about Season 3 for a whole hour honestly.
The end where polly has grown is not 10 years later but a few years/months the scene on earth is 10 years later.
"Learning valuable lessons including not being a picky eater, friendship, and *manslaughter* "
What made me extra happy with the ending is that they didn't screw it up like star vs, it was a kinda sad but also good ending
"From your little frog champ" was the best gag by far
Loved Amphibia to death !!! It was my favourite show and still is ... Wish that more shows ended like it did ! Also I loved all of their designs in the epilogue... Especially Marcy !
8:35 Greatest transition ever. Thank you Queen Sucrose
This is the coolest most anime show that’s ever happened to me
I’m gonna cry again over this show ending
THIS , I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
The background human characters were really fun to watch
Rip to the guy who never got clownfaced by his boyfriend :(
Also Anne’s dad is best dad
Comment time:
1. This show had one hell of a finale. If it did come back/cameo in some form, I'd personally like to Anne as a multiverse guardian down the line.
2. You have a second channel? I'll have to check that out.
3. As a Sonic fan, I'll admit the series could get hard to get into. Partly since there are many different interpretations due to SEGA apparently not agreeing on continuity/lore...
Okay normally I don’t cry so much at goodbyes but when sprig begged Anne to stay and said “you’re my everything” I was BAWLING
Amazing freaking show!
Everyone: the ending was flawless.
Me: so Ann never let go she is just kinda stuck being obsessed with amphibians
This was a year ago, so maybe you don’t think this anymore, but just because you may accept something being gone doesn’t mean you don’t get to hold on to the memories or pieces you have of that lost thing/person. Her building a miniature amphibia to keep as a way of honoring the family she doesn’t have anymore doesn’t mean she “never moved on and is obsessed” it just means she wants to remember them and it probably makes her happy having a piece of home with her??
Can we talk about how they literally just have Mike from Inside Job. Like that's literally him. What's going on there.
This channel is honestly why I go and watch certain shows
Matt is an amazing story writer and I can't wait to see if he does something next!
i really really want to be nostalgic about the show and cry again 4 more times through out the show in like 5 or 7 years
We need more people like you that roast the shit out of stuff we love and in the end admit that it is good. Thats the only source of entertainment i see
while season 3 for me not have a perfect start (missed opportunity the MID SEASON I will called), this show did what any great show have to.....ENDED WITH A BANG, hell yes, as soon they return to Amphibia the show got right back on business and all for the better and the last 2 episodes are just, my kind of cheesecake, muhhhaaww so good, congrats to the Amphibia crew they nailed this show, I will never say is a perfect 10 out of 10, season 1 was fun but not very plot center....season 2 was my jam all the way to the stabbing end....season 3 have a weak half (the entire earth saga......but still Anne parents are great, love them), but the second half the return to Amphibia was all I wanted and the ending is season 2 levels of epicness with tears of happiness instead of sorrow. Still Gravity Falls will be forever best Disney cartoon show in my opinion, but Amphibia happily for me got very damn CLOSE, this was a wonderful journey and an inspiration to us hopefully someday write something that get as close of been this good, Matt Braly thanks for all the laughs and this amazing show.
I'm gonna miss this show so much! 😭
3:35 this phrase is the entirety of Sasha’s appearances until season 3b.
I love this video!
I'm the only one that's sad that Anne is a frog lady?
I mean you stopped an invasion and are on the short list for taking the job of god.
That must be a killer resume right?
Ivy. Her name is Ivy. That's why the episode is called Sprivy. Because Sprig and Ivy.
Also Darcy being an Aku reference is eye opening, I can't unsee it now.
16:51
Why does everyone hate on the snirds?
They are the best thing to ever happen in the history of the universe, and they don't deserve all the hate.
They did go full anime... and it was GORGEOUS
THE SARCASM IS BACK. And it’s beautiful.
Actually, the Amphibia side of the epilogue was only nine months later. Matt Braly's words.
I love how Zeno Robison plays almost every character imaginable or at least one from each genre
Love the Moon Sound from Majora’s mask, perfect😂😂😂
In SA2, it wasn't the moon crashing into Earth, it was a space station.
I also had the same reaction when I first saw the bird snail thing.
The creator says he's open to an Amphibia spinoff about Sprigg's adventures, just not any time soon. Honestly, I was hoping for an ending closer to Star vs where the worlds are permanently fused.
The crew behind Amphibia deserve every award for this amazing show
This show is amazing
When Marcy said that the stones power stack when used in tandem and after that immediately saying classic synergy buff that means she knows how to play literally every campaign game and she earns my favorite character spot
So I finished the show today and when I watched that same scene at 9:40 I just chocked up Andrias creaking to large metal armor. Looking at it after finishing the finale makes alot more sense.
Also Cat God is Ruby.
The Sarcastic Summaries have returned!! 🤩
You forgot the fact they left the giant birds in Ann's world
when they teleported back so now in the real world there's two giant
cranes around.
I missed these videos
i love the final gambit trope so fucking much! the Max calamity Mode, final explosion, gate of death, I'm a SUCKER for these!
So again no one talks about Anika Noni Rose aka Princess Tiana voicing Dr.Jan and Keith David aka Dr.Faclier voicing King Andrias both in a Disney Cartoon establishments about frogs and no connections made is just criminal imo.
thank you!!!! finally someone other than me seems to care about how/why the snail and the bird hooked up! and if you know anything about how those two species reproduce, it only leads to more confusion. yes i know it's a fantasy story with talking frogs, but at least the frogs still mostly do frog things. the bird and the snail are just bigger, slightly more sentient versions of their real world counterparts. did... did the snail love dart the bird's cloaca??? .....hhhhhow???????
I personally love that King Andreas lived. Too many times villains take the vader way out, but with andreas he's out there planting trees for years. He'll never make up for all he's done, but he'll likely spend the rest of his life trying, and that's a better message I think than giving your life makes up for it.
Being Asian, Anne's family is incredibly relatable but I don't believe for one second that she remembers what to call all of her aunts.
Although I’ve been on s1 of amphibia before DisneyXD stopped airing but I only got a sneak peak of Sasha and Marcy due to the opening and Sashas appearance in one of the episodes and I’ve been trying to get back into it by bugging my brother enough to let me watch it with him but hopefully I’ll be able to fully understand the story regardless to the amount of spoilers I’ve seen so far
It was cringy, emotional and epic. I love it, amphibia will just go down the history as one of the best cartoon underdog stories. In a way I feel like it wasn't as popular as it should've been. But I will always rep amphibia god
I cried sm when the show ended but I honestly can’t decide if I like season 2 or 3 more.
Thank you, thank you, for bringing up that weird snail bird thing!!!!!!!!!
The dehydration joke at the end got me good 🤣🤣🤣
ah perfect timing. i was just thinking how badly i don't wanna watch the third season
i cried the entire second half of The Hardest Thing lmfao
One theory I initially had was that the new job Marcy’s father got was for the FBI and he was Mr. X’s boss. At one point he would even confront him about where his daughter is. Thoughts?
3:15 That's always been a thing in fandoms. People usually bring up Zuko but who's the earliest example, Darth Vader?
How like how every time the cloak boat arrives x gonna give it to ya plays and immediately gets wrecked mercilessly
You know the core missed a big opportunity of being called cracy you know because they’re crazy
THIS IS PERFECT LMFAO
oh cool, subscribed
The timeskip in Amphibia is actually only about nine months according to Matt, that's why Sprig looks mostly the same and Maddie's sisters are still tadpoles
@Chang-Seok Yoo 🔞👇 beans
@Chang-Seok Yoo 🔞👇 nacho cheese
Darcy is the hero
But weren’t they about the same age as Polly so why is she grown now
Yeah they probably should have had a 9 months later sign or something
