Leaf's connection to the Plantars was addressed pretty far back. Both she and Sprig have pink skin, and it was noted several times when it came to Sprig that his color was rare/unusual.
Leaf was their related family member a thousand years ago. They would have to make a REALLY BIG family tree to show her or any of these frogs, that would be too many generations to show. Especially considering we don't know their lifespan. That's probably why you can't see her there, or the show runners hadn't estabilished her as a full character yet, just an idea.
The outfits that the fake Anne and Sasha were wearing in the core were inspired by Link in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Anne) and Edelgard in Fire Emblem: Three Houses (Sasha).
This is it. The Core has commenced its final gambit, and everyone's future is in jeopardy. Anne Boonchuy, Sasha Waybright, and Marcy Wu have lived, laughed, cried, loved, and learned throughout their time in this crazy little frog world. Now they must do what the prophecy has foretold, and do the hardest thing they have ever done. Next week, the final battle, and this hopping ride of a show, concludes...
1:49 - Mr. X's speed dials are "Mom", "Hubby", "Boss", "Teri", and "Micky D's". 2:13 - "Still not used to you being smart." Remember Sprig, while you and Hop Pop were binging TV, Polly was a little internet goblin. Love the references to 'DragonBall' in the Anne/Andreas fight and 'Soul Eater' in the Sasha/Darcy fight.
A phenomenal start to what is a perfect finale. Anne vs. Andrias Sasha & Grime vs. Darcy The Plantars vs. The Herons This episode truly is just nonstop for the entire 48 minutes, and next week is no different. Brace for tears, lots of tears. Also, the song used in this episode is "As If It's Your Last" by BLACKPINK, it's a BOP.
Calamity Anne vs Mecha Andrias and Sasha vs Darcy were both phenomenal fights. I remember all the theories that Anne would lose her arm and Sasha would lose her eye but the only one to lose a body part was Grime lol
Anne's admission that she didn't love herself absolutely crushes me every time I hear it. It's such a real struggle and to hear a lead character in a show just say it hurts so bad.
11:56 Not So Fun Fact: Originally, Andrias was going to be much more critically injured by Anne’s hit. In early drafts of storyboards, he was going to completely lose the lower half of his body. This was changed as it seemed to be just a bit too dark, which is interesting to think about when you see how damaged he still got in the final outcome.
If you go back to the episode when Grimes was introduced, his cape is covering the arm that he eventually lost, in a very similar way how it looks now. Dunno if it was a clever foreshadowing, or something that they thought afterwards.
Only one more and it's aptly titled. The Plantar/Leif hunting dance returning is epic. Marcy:"Right! Boundaries Marcy....I bet I can fit in your pocket!" Olivia:(Visibly sweating)"WHAT!???" Oof, Sasha and Grime's moment is so much. They changed so much from who they started out as and I still see Grime as a father figure to Sasha(whose parents are divorced, if the Christmas Episode is any indicator). I wish we didn't have to wait a week, but you'll need it!
I'm pretty sure that when it comes to the family tree what you're missing is that Lief is an ancestor from a thousand years ago, and the stuff from the family tree episode are all ancestor from no where near that far back so of course Lief and her family wouldn't have been shown As for Emma the Newt that is just a parallel between her and Anne the human to show Anne that just cause someone wasn't a frog didn't mean they couldn't be a Planter, the fact that they looked similar was just an animation decision to really sell the point across to the audience especially the younger audience, that was the only reason, it was animation shenanigans and not something to seriously look at deeply
We're really in it now. Finale incoming as do plenty of tears. So close... It's surprising to see some of the missing details, but I think Alycia said back in season 1 that the show didn't really know what it wanted to be yet, so maybe this is a case of that carrying over into season 3, kind of catching up with them. That being said, things coming full circle with Leaf and the Plantars really is satisfying. I'm so excited for the finale and I can't believe we're here!
I have enjoyed your reactions! I love watching it with you and seeing how you react to all the funny hilarious moments and all of the shocking twists! I love your channel so much!
This episode was so overwhelmingly awesome that it's hard to even pick out the most amazing moments among the ones like the conclusion of Anne's character arc (well, almost), or Sasha's acceptance that she can be a good person despite all she had done, or the Plantars standoff agains the herons, or Marcy saying "no" to Aldrich, or Andrias finally trying to make amends and be in peace with himself, or...ok, even that list is long enough! And speaking about Andrias, he definitely saw some parallels between Leif and Marcy but that unfortunately also worked against the human girl in S2 finale. The king could not allow the history to repeat itself so when Marcy opened the portal he tried to stop her by any means necessary. Overall, this episode could have been an amazing grand finale for the entire series but we still have one more...
the other core character parallel is andreas and anne (clear with the name, the color etc). he’s a version that never found the self love that would stop him from being pushed by others into harmful actions
The letter Leif wrote to Andrias tells me that they were more than just friends I think they loved each other Andrias blushes and looked away during Leifs dance, the secret messages to each other, Andrias the frist to rush to Leif after she fell to her hands and knees after the vission, the worried look on his face, Leif crying into Andrias, Andrias the one that took her betrayl the hardest and his blushing tears in his eyes and scraming her name when she left, and Leif dubbing her self as "your Leif" and her calling him my derest Andrias and saying I wish my love will reach you. Also in the painting Andrias and Leif are looking at eachother and there is a art that Matt Braly did Andrias Berral and Leif are back together and they are on his sholders and Andrias and Leif are looking at eachother. There was and still is something more than just friendship between Andrias and Leif.
The song choice was so funny to me because the way they chose the most bright, Poppy, cute song out of Blackpink’s entire discography for such fight scene lol😭
"This... This isn't real, is it? The real Anne and Sasha don't want what I want and it hurts, but forcing them to follow my dreams is wrong. I've learned that the hard way." As someone who has special interests in animation, music, and video games and has IRL friends who don't share similar interests as I do, that quote hits close to home. I'm honestly upset that quotes like that aren't present in shows that I watched in the 90s and 2000s. They're all nothing but mindless entertainment with monotonously ridiculous humour. It's important that shows like Amphibia include subject matter that reflect the reality that people face. That their friends don't have the same interests as they do.
I love this show but Darcy had so much missed potential. She only had 10 minutes of screen time in the entire show and the majority of that comes from this episode. There’s so much more they could’ve done with her
Since Amphibia is ending (idk if you are open to suggestions tho) another really good show you are probably going to like is Tangled the Series. It follows Rapunzel's story from the ending of the movie to before her wedding and it's SO GOOOD. THE SONGS ARE SOOOO GOOOOOOD T-T Just saying 👉👈
"SPOLIER ALET DON'T READ THIS COMMET UNLESS UR DONE WATCHING AMPHIBIA"if u didn't know and but the lamp behind u with the the three colours match with the colours of marcy,sasha and anne's powers and the picture or painting behind it is also a spolirer to the last espisond
The end of this show really just fell apart on so many levels. While I was watching this I could not wrap my head around the Earth invasion battle scenes. Back in Amphibia, Andrias' troops were having trouble with untrained frogs and newts using pitchforks and whatnot but once they get to Earth they're having no trouble with the military? To quote our favorite Anuran elder: "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!"
Oh man! Only one episode left. As always, great reaction! Just when you though it couldn't get more intense than True Colors. The show definitely isn't shy of violence. Stabbing someone in the heart from the back? Now someone losing an entire arm! Grimes surely fooled us there! 😱
I can't believe it's almost over 😭 this is my favorite episode of the series, and the next one made me cry so much
Leaf's connection to the Plantars was addressed pretty far back. Both she and Sprig have pink skin, and it was noted several times when it came to Sprig that his color was rare/unusual.
Possibly the best cartoon episode Disney has ever crafted!
Leaf was their related family member a thousand years ago.
They would have to make a REALLY BIG family tree to show her or any of these frogs, that would be too many generations to show.
Especially considering we don't know their lifespan.
That's probably why you can't see her there, or the show runners hadn't estabilished her as a full character yet, just an idea.
Family Shrub, only crazy people use trees.
One of the best finales to a series I’ve ever seen
The outfits that the fake Anne and Sasha were wearing in the core were inspired by Link in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Anne) and Edelgard in Fire Emblem: Three Houses (Sasha).
Even though this was shortened a lot. I still cried. This show is amazing!
This is it. The Core has commenced its final gambit, and everyone's future is in jeopardy.

A phenomenal start to what is a perfect finale.
Anne vs. Andrias
Sasha & Grime vs. Darcy
The Plantars vs. The Herons

12:52-13:01 Nothing to say here except now THAT’S a clean cut
Anne's admission that she didn't love herself absolutely crushes me every time I hear it. It's such a real struggle and to hear a lead character in a show just say it hurts so bad.

This is the most epic battle of all time. Anne fighting King Andrias to save the world was hardcore. Get ready for the last episode
💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥😭😭😭
If you go back to the episode when Grimes was introduced, his cape is covering the arm that he eventually lost, in a very similar way how it looks now. Dunno if it was a clever foreshadowing, or something that they thought afterwards.

Darcy: Wait! I still function!
Sasha: Wanna bet? *Severs cord*
Darcy: SAAASSHHHHAAAAAA!!!!!!
Watched this episode yesterday! It made me cry on re-watch 💀
I have enjoyed your reactions! I love watching it with you and seeing how you react to all the funny hilarious moments and all of the shocking twists! I love your channel so much!
Amphibia was not represented in the Olympics today. So thank you for bringing this land the recognition it deserves on this historic day!
All In. Yeah, that's how it is. Thanks for bringing all this back to life. I'm in like the first time! Here we go! :)
This episode was so overwhelmingly awesome that it's hard to even pick out the most amazing moments among the ones like the conclusion of Anne's character arc (well, almost), or Sasha's acceptance that she can be a good person despite all she had done, or the Plantars standoff agains the herons, or Marcy saying "no" to Aldrich, or Andrias finally trying to make amends and be in peace with himself, or...ok, even that list is long enough!

Cant wait for the end this is one of my favourite shows ever created
If you want to know the song it’s as if it’s your last by blackpink
I can’t believe we finally made it after such a long journey 🥹
Never clicked so fast in a video. Then again, never been this early. Time to see the reaction. I can hardly wait...

Also can you put the 2 missing episodes in your playlist for Amphibia?

I'm not ready for this! Not again! Can't wait to go "all in" with this reaction and finale though!
Remember the days we assumed Anne would lose her arm, and then Matt said “Yes, but actually no” with Grime?
We're in the endgame now.
I love this show but Darcy had so much missed potential. She only had 10 minutes of screen time in the entire show and the majority of that comes from this episode. There’s so much more they could’ve done with her
This is the best episode in the show !
13:00 Mumbo... is the moon big?
3 stars burning bright, come from beyond to expel the night. Should they fight or embrace the fall their choice will determine the fate of all

Just saying 👉👈
So excited for the hardest thing
Im so sad its ending soon :( this has been a great reaction series
