Anne struggled after Marcy says it’s time for the Plantars to get back to their lives without her. It really gives a lot more emotional weight to “Day at the Aquarium” in season two. That will always be a fundamental part of who they are. They helped develop into the best versions of themselves. Anne and the Plantars made each other better. In fact, the journey is the most important part. It doesn’t mean their adventures and the journey are forgotten. The Plantars have to go on without Anne and vice versa. So she must leave and walk away from her frog family.Ĭhange has always been such a beautiful theme of Amphibia which is the biggest part of “The Hardest Thing.” Not only has Anne changed as a person, as beautifully demonstrated in “ All In,” but the story is now changing too. And it’s the consequences that make it hit home most. Unless something crazy happens in a future spinoff, this is a true goodbye. While Hop Pop says she’ll always have a room in their home, the audience knows that this will probably never come to fruition. Yes, it hurts watching her say goodbye to Sprig and the Plantars. Probably the character with the most satisfying and relatively straightforward ending is Anne (I’ll talk about the Guardian in a moment). It was a poetic moment that really got to me. He wears Leif’s broach as he rebuilds the world she loved with Barrel’s Warhammer as his tool. Though, I love that he still honors them. Like Percy, Braddock, and Sasha, his friends never saw his growth into a better person. He also has to live on without Barrel and Leif. They never truly enjoyed their time with the Core always whispering in Andrias’ mind. Marcy is aware of his sacrifice, but their friendship was built on lies and deceit. But Marcy didn’t have the deep relationships that Anne and Sasha built with the Plantars and Grime.Īlong with Marcy, Andrias doesn’t get the satisfaction of true forgiveness. She was so caught up in the fantasy of Amphibia that she missed possible friendships. Aware of her actions, she recognized how she missed an opportunity to truly connect with the two newts.
It was her goodbye to Olivia and Yunan that did it for me. They stuck the landing on Marcy! I wrote last week her story would always be the hardest to nail because it was the one with the quickest turnaround. It gives even more weight to “Barrel’s Warhammer” on a rewatch knowing that we the audience, like Sasha, won’t see our toad friends again. I loved the choice not to bring Percy and Braddock back. That’s a consequence of her action she just has to cope with and find a way to be okay. But then Sasha has to live the rest of her life never knowing if they forgave her. She tells Grime to find them for her, to tell them she’s sorry. She will never see Percy and Braddock ever again. Not all of the emotional arcs have satisfying conclusions which is something I loved about the episode. They must say goodbye to people they love with no certain future of reuniting. It’s choice after choice where our characters have to choose where they end up. There’s not a magical way for Anne and Sprig to continue seeing each other.
One of my favorite things about the Amphibia finale is it doesn’t take every story and put a neat little bow on top. For me personally, Star Wars Resistance ended too soon and deserves a third season instead of being cut off at the knees and hiding its queer and BIPOC rep in cable hell. It’s been well documented how much Rebecca Sugar fought for Steven Universeto have a proper sendoff after the execs threatened to cancel the show over Ruby and Saphire’s wedding. Dana Terrace, the cast, the crew, and the fans will be robbed of one of the best shows on television getting a proper ending.

I have a feeling that watching The Owl House season three will sting, knowing that Disney cut short the show’s full potential. I never even finished the final season, because it simply wasn’t the same show. What started as a fascinating fantasy drama fell down the rabbit hole to become a soap opera that meets Kingdom Hearts. But it wore out its welcome with the introduction of the Frozen characters in season four. One of my favorite shows for years was Once Upon A Time. I honestly never thought Supernatural would end. Some finales are a relief after runs too long. Who could forget the cultural phenomenon Game of Thrones was, capturing the world for the majority of its run only to fail in the end and destroy its own legacy in the final episodes? It’s the last thing the audience remembers. To touch on Amphibia’s final title, they are “The Hardest Thing” to write in a lot of cases.
