Amphibia spoilers below

We know that the girls opened the music box at nighttime, so when Ann and the Plantars arrived at Earth in the day. This may prove that time did passed!

Estas escenas me dieron risa, pero también tristeza de solo pensar lo mucho que los padres de anne la debieron extrañar para ponerse sobreproctetores, en especial su madre 😭😭😭

¿Yo? Amando más que nunca a esta familia :') ❤️

"If I had a nickel for every time a main character sacrificed themselves for the greater good, ges a power-up, and then fades into little bits of nothing only to meet a god-like creature I would have two nickels, which isn't a lot but its weird that it happened twice."

GUYS-

Some highlights of the collective screaming after the s3 trailer dropped ❤️

(All creators’ names are included in the photos)

Amphibia the hardest thing spoilers!!!!! . . . . . .

I don’t normally post and haven’t in a long time but something i wanted to point out that Anne went into a academic field, and succeeded in it to the point where she was in charge of an exbibit.

 sure, pre amphibia she just didn’t try and wanted to take the easy route, but even mid/late into the show she was shown to be insecure about her intelligence and/or believed she was dumb (seriously there is an entire episode dedicated to it and there where many times where she brought up how she didn't think she was smart enough).

 but after the events of the show she succeeded to a really high level in a academic field and enjoyed it, something that would seem laughably impossible to pre amphibia Anne

Amphibia S2E20 - 'True Colors'

This was the best scene from the episode tbh. Iconic.

(yes I know Bipper is from last decade he’s still popular so ehh what the heck just put him in)

So uh. . . I saw All In

Ok here me out but, Sonic Underground Amphibia AU. Now, you may be asking, “Zack, what does that mean you absolute wet napkin” and I have answers.

Basically it’s Amphibia, but it’s the Sonic Underground cast, with Sonic as Anne, Sonia as Sasha, and Manic as Marcy. Except in this au the triplets would be humans and get zapped to a strange land called Mobius. I have some ✨ideas✨ in terms of who would be what, although there are some spoilers so I’m putting them below the cut

Sonic as Anne

Obviously we would have to put Sonic in the main character place, he would be a normal teen that gets zapped to Mobius via a strange jewel (aka a chaos emerald) that his brother found in a thrift store. Shortly he first arrives in Mobius, he is found by

Tails as Sprig

The second oldest child of Vanilla, he is Sonics best friend and an all around sweet heart tbh, he has two siblings, including an older sister

Amy as idk just pretend there’s another Plantar Kid

Amy is the (mostly) level headed eldest child of Vanilla, being about the same age as the triplets. (Also disclaimer, Sonamy is not a thing in this au)

And a younger sister

Cream as Polly

Cream is the youngest and only biological child of Vanilla, she’s very sweet and kinda naive sometimes, which is why her siblings have to keep her out of trouble.

Vanilla as Hop Pop

Vanilla is a mother who lives on the outskirts of town with her three children, she’s more than willing to take Sonic in once he’s been proven to not be a threat.

I think that Cosmo should be Ivy Sundew partially because she’s a canonical Tails love interest and partially because I love her, but idk who would be the assorted Wart Wood (I hope I spelled that right) villagers, if you guys have any ideas let me know.

OK SPOILERS for Amphibia season two past this point, and a few for season three, not many though as I probably won’t be getting into season three territory as much.

Sonia as Sasha

Sonia is Sonic’s sister and the oldest of the triplets, she kinda has a bit of a Gifted Kid complex ngl, when she fist showed up in Mobius she joined The Eggman Army through unspecified means (aka I don’t remember how Sasha joined the toads)

Eggman as Grimes

Ok I know what you may be thinking, why isn’t Eggman Andreas? Well I’ll tell you, it’s because I like kinda stupid almost anti-hero Eggman who really isn’t evil and just wants to fight Sonic and helps the gang out sometimes, aka X!Eggman. Eggman is Grimes.

Knuckles as idk imagine that Grimes has like, an apprentice or somethin

Another one where I’m inserting a character into a nonexistent slot, I know this doesn’t really make sense but I want Knuckles to be friends with Sonia and also have something to do with Eggman.

Manic as Marcy

Manic is Sonic’s brother and the youngest of the triplets, he has a bit of a stealing problem, it was never to serious, a swiped pencil or other trinket, but eventually he started mixing in with the wrong crowd in school, this got him into a lot of trouble. After a particularly ambitious “prank” gone wrong, Manic gets picked up by the cops, this leads the triplet’s mother, Aleena, to consider sending him to a boarding school of sorts. Not wanting to be separated from his siblings, Manic runs off and finds a mysterious gem that is rumored to be a gateway to other worlds. He calls his siblings to come and check it out, under the guise that it’s a birthday present, unfortunately, they accidentally activate the gem and end up in Mobius.

He’s also a vocaloid fan, and yknow that scene when Marcy first shows up? When she slides down the rope? Well when Manic does that he’s playing World Is Mine by Hatsune Miku

Manic ends up in a city called Mobotropolis, where he meets the king of Mobius.

This is where it gets a little tricky, because I am not well versed in Sonic villains, and I haven’t played any of the games beside Forces, so if any of you guys think of a better person for Andreas’s role let me know

Infinite as King Andreas

King Infinite is the benevolent king of Mobius, who decides to appoint Manic as his royal advisor, he’s very nice and kind and- haha jk he’s evil. He wants to go to Earth using the power of the Chaos Emeralds and stabs Manic, then possesses him with Phantom Ruby juice or somethin

Vector as Commander Yunan (I hope I spelled that right)

Idk I just think it would be funny

Espio as Lady Olivia

He’s kinda similar to he I guess, I just think it would be funny for Team Chaotix to have an episode with Manic

DISCLAIMER: I KNOW THAT ALOT OF THE FANDOM SHIPS OLIVIA AND YUNAN BUT THATS NOT HAPPENING HERE BECAUSE ESPIO IS A CHILD AND VECTOR IS A WHOLE ADULT, VECPIO SHIPPERS DNI

Also just imagine that Olivia has an assistant or somethin and that’s Charmy

Oh jeez almost forgot, Frobo is Emerl, this is because I grew up on Sonic X and in Sonic X Emerl is a robot that Cream adopts, but has to punt into the ocean because it went haywire, and I think that works for this.

Let me know if you guys have any ideas for this, I would love to hear them!

I cannot believe this

Not me laughing like a mad man cause Marcy has axolotl armour that could very well be based of off The Nights actual appearance/species!

I recently rewatched amphibia with my brother and he asked me if The Night was an axolotl.

I don’t know if anyone else has already said this but it makes more sense to me than a spider?

The night has 3 main tubes that stick out from its head like other axolotls

Also each species symbolise each gem. Toads are power. Frogs are heart. And the newts are smart. But the axolotls don’t have one?

Sorry if someone’s already thought of this (I haven’t been on tumblr in a while) but I just couldn’t stop thinking about this.

hmmm. something about sashannarcy. something about anne scarring sasha's face. something about anne being the reason sasha starts wanting to be someone better (someone that deserves her). something about sasha scarring marcy's face. something about sasha being the one that frees marcy from the core's control. something about sasha and marcy figuratively stabbing anne in the back. something about sasha and marcy literally getting stabbed/sliced in the back. something about how the marks they leave on each other are both seen and unseen. something about soulmates. something about hurting and healing. something.

Silly goofy art of Amphibia (I finished the show)

I also forgot to post this lol

HAPPY AMPHIBIA ANNIVERSARY :D (Season 2 or 3 spoilers?)

I can’t believe it’s been 4 years since this amazing show started airing... i looove the silly frog show but im too tired from work to say a lot more than that.  thanks for the memories <3

here’s an unfinished sketch i made at work!, thought i’d post something art related since i couldn’t finish an amphibia animation sooner. AMPHIBIA SPOILERS!

---

UHHH AMPHIBIA SPOILERS FOR LIKE THE WHOLE SHOW 

I believe the point of the story was that Marcy saw Amphibia as the perfect escape when that wasn’t really true... She saw it through the lens of perfect fantasy glasses when it was as REAL and scary and horrific as the world she came from. Sure she did do a lot of amazing things, but she only really had an easier time because the king himself was using her.  She was so happy because she had Andrias to support and listen to her, and an immediate escape from her life’s past problems... I’m sure if she hadn’t met Andrias the amphibians would treat her as a strange outsider like Wartwood did to Anne.  Marcy probably would’ve had a much harder time expressing herself and doing what she wanted in Amphibia if Andrias hadn’t manipulated her by giving her his companionship and social power.  She doesn’t have the same people skills that Anne does, and the same manipulation tactics that Sasha had.  She would probably struggle to find her place in Amphibia despite it resembling fantasy media she’d consumed before.

All of this to say... Andrias betrayed her, and fatally wounded her, fully of his own volition.  He manipulated her and used her, fully of his own choice.  The one authority figure who Marcy thought truly supported her, IMPALED HER WITH A SWORD.  AND THEN DID MUCH WORSE BY GETTING HER POSSESSED.  Amphibia might’ve been a good place for her, but what we saw in the show was a façade, a perfect sugary frosting over a dark and tainted legacy of corruption.  We saw Marcy serving a king and his lord who thought of glory first, and people last.  This is why Amphibia wasn’t a good place for Marcy, she thrived in the corrupt city of Newtopia, and when the curtain was pulled back, she saw that this world was the same as the one she came from, with the same horrors and sorrows.. and even though earth was scary, she could go back to somewhere where she did belong, somewhere where any fantasy she chased didn’t have a potential of being too real and too cruel to her.  

I mean, if it were me and I found out horrifying magical amphibian brain transferring and body controlling technology was a thing I’d immeeediately nope out.  Yeah fantasy’s cool but NOT THAT- 

Also, a sortve unrelated thought about Andrias and Marcy... Maybe the plan wasn’t even fully a manipulation tactic or a lie, maybe Andrias was going to take her on his conquests, emotional support for his selfish destruction. His ancestors did keep trophies from other worlds... the moss men, the ghost fish... and Andrias was going to conquer earth next.   Marcy... was his new trophy.  Aldrich would be proud.

To put my complaints with Marcy's arc in particular into more coherent words now that I'm calmer.

It's absolutely true that from a meta perspective that Marcy did seem to end up happy in the end and that she is incredibly strong for it. However, with that being said, the fact that things turned out okay in universe doesn't change the fact that I disagree with the way the ending of her arc was portrayed narratively. Whether or not she ended up fine from a meta perspective isn't really up for debate here. She obviously did and I'm proud of her for that. But I've always had a problem with the idea that the morally correct or healthiest option for Marcy would be to go back to earth. And whether or not the writers intended to send that message (its absolutely very possible they were going for something more along the lines of marcy being strong enough to get through the undoubtedly hard time she'd have back on earth), that's kinda what they did.

Marcy spent a lot of the last episodes feeling guilty for everything she did and talking about how she started this whole mess trying to run away from reality, then she goes back to earth and she at least seems to end up happy there. It reads like your typical "Marcy was selfish and wrong for stealing the music box and needs to suck it up and go live in the real world >:(" take I've been arguing against since forever.

I probably wouldn't feel the way I do if there had been no possible way to stay in Amphibia and if they'd addressed that going back to earth isn't quite fair to Marcy but that she's strong enough to get through it. I probably wouldn't feel the way I do if they'd even just so much as cut back on that guilt Marcy really laid on thick over bringing them to Amphibia. Or if the other girls had stayed in contact with her after they went home since that'd give her a reason to want to go back at least.

But none of those things happened. And whatever the intention was, this ending for Marcy feels like a bad message to send. She was happy and accepted in Amphibia and she left because....why?

They didn't give any indication that there was something back on earth that she'd desperately miss. She spent six months in Amphibia the happiest she'd ever been and never once did she miss earth, and yet suddenly, now that she's started being obviously self critical for "hiding from reality" she's perfectly happy to go back?

Yeah, no, the message definitely reads as "Marcy was wrong when she tried to change her life circumstances and she needs to leave the place where she genuinely has the resources she needs that weren't available on earth and go back to earth so she can work twice as hard as everyone else to pull herself into a decent life. Because struggling through a world that wasn't built for her on earth is The Right Thing To Do and hiding from reality in Amphibia would be Wrong."

There were ways to write Marcy going back to earth permanently that would be fine, but this absolutely was not it in my opinion because I'll just never be able to agree with the idea that living in Amphibia is an immoral or unhealthy thing for Marcy to do when it's blatantly clear she thrived there so much easier than she ever did on earth.
