How Amphibia Created ANOTHER Perfect Season Finale

[@The2ndDimension]

What do you think makes True Colors so great? Do you think it's a better episode than the Season 1 finale, Reunion?

[@at-mose]

100% (not that the season 1 finale was bad or anything)

[@0_Byn]

I think it’s so great because of how far the characters have changed compared to season 1, also it is better then the original finale

[@mariekaharrison6999]

If he was in phinease and ferb that whould be the best crossover

[@Sir-Darmstadt]

Yes and no

[@thoughtsofananon]

The only thing I think was better about Reunion was that they played a song while Toad Tower was collapsing and Sasha was falling, other than that, True Colors is better.

[@Marngel]

“True Colors” really is the perfect name for the season two finale. Not only did it reveal Anne, Sasha, Marcy, King Andrias, and others’ true colors, but it also revealed the true colors of the show as a whole. Most of Amphibia has been seen as a light-hearted show about a girl in a frog world learning to get by and find a way home. The show did introduce some complexity to this initial premise, but it’s still familiar. However, the second half of season two and True Colors revealed that Amphibia is so much more than just a comedic light hearted show about a girl in a frog world. It is indeed a show with clearly high stakes, characters that make you believe they’re real, intense emotional moments, and the ability to make people remember the show for years to come. I started watching Amphibia just for the comedic, light hearted nature of the show, and I was already satisfied with the show with season one. However, season two went far and beyond what I expected from the show, and as a result, it’s a show that I will always remember.

[@victorhernandez8723]

Sort of like Avatar: the Last Airbender.

[@malcolmjenkins3585]

The name perfectly shows that when situations escalate, people show their true colors (Andrias stabbing marcy for the music box, anne berating and trying to kill sasha, marcy trapping her friends in order to save her old life from falling apart)

[@at-mose]

I have a theory that Andreas and his two friends are the same kind of beings that Sasha a Marcy and Anne are because Andreas is a Newt and his two friends are a frog and a toad just like how Anne got stuck with frogs Sasha got stuck with toads and Marcy got stuck with newts.

[@The2ndDimension]

I do think that's the idea - there's this really cool parallel Andrias' friend trio will have to Anne, Marcy, and Sasha I think

[@dougus]

Plus the colors of the characters match the colors of the gems and I think eh flashback the gems are visible on the sprig looking one

[@whoknows4780]

I just put together that each of the friends are quite similar to each race’s typical qualities. Anne is homely, plucky, adventurous. Marcy is intelligent, scheming, and agile. Sasha is brash, strong, and brave. Just like the frogs, newts, and toads.

[@lunahale9167]

:O that’s clever!

[@adammyers7383]

What I’ve found elevates Amphibia above so many others is it’s self-awareness. It KNOWS whenever it’s going towards cliches or anything the audience expects and constantly works to address the fact that the audience knows what’s coming. In setting up all of its comedy as actively challenging the narrative it’s telling, it can do the same with its drama without it feeling forced or jarring. It’s spectacular.

[@lunahale9167]

True. Not many shows are able to that, and all the shows I’ve seen so far that have done it have been amazing

[@hasmhas]

I think it's interesting that even the most common criticism of the episode- Andrias' true nature hiding under the tapestry and not being discovered was sort of hinted at and/or defended in a previous episode. There was a very easy to find button providing an entrance to a secret library that Marcy found hiding under a tapestry. I guess newts just REALLY hate touching and/or moving tapestries.

[@The2ndDimension]

This is true! Plus, Andrias was likely just respected as the past 10 generations of amphibians only knew his kind, fun-loving side

[@hasmhas]

@@The2ndDimension I guess now that I put some actual thought into it it's most likely Andrias just established a rule about not touching the tapestries to "preserve history" something of that sort.

True Colors is fantastic for so many reasons but I think the biggest one is that it shows you what all is at stake and that everyone and everything these characters know and love could be taken away from them. The episode really shows this through Sprig and Marcy’s near deaths. This episode shows that anything is possible and that everything is on the line

[@The2ndDimension]

This character became an instant fan favorite upon their official introduction just before the series' halfway point, although they were in the intro and had been hinted at several times throughout the series prior to that. Later, this character was killed by fire in the season 2 finale, by a former partner of theirs. The partnership broke up when one betrayed the other, which they were always planning to do. Amphibia and Gravity Falls both have a character who fits this description.

[@redwings13400]

Amphibia does such a good job of, regardless how insane an episode gets, always bringing the focus right back to the thing we all care about the most, the characters. You described this really well in your Reunion analysis, and they did the same thing here. This show excels at establishes major stakes, then takes a step back and uses those stakes to further our investment in the characters and their journey. This changes the massive, worldwide stakes in to individual character stories in a way that doesn't feel forced whatsoever. Its impressive. Sasha takes over the entire kingdom of Newtopia, then without a beat, the episode shifts right in how these actions influenced Anne and Sasha's relationship, making the dramatic tension about how Sasha has gone too far, and lost Anne's trust forever. The story is about Anne trying to close the gates before the Toad army can get through and overrun the city, but the tension in that scene is again between Anne and Sasha, paying off the setup in the first scene by showing how Sasha now can't get through to Anne because she's cried wolf one too many times! We know Sasha is technically in the right at this point but we also know that Anne would be an idiot to trust her. When Andrias takes over again and shows his true colors, we start to get the setups for a fight scene, but then Marcy jumps in and makes the character drama between her and the girls, revealing how she wanted to adventure forever and ever because she was afraid of being alone. The fight may be about the music box, but the emotional drama happens when Andrias drops Sprig off the castle, when we connect with Anne's loss and her anger. Even the final moment is about Marcy and Sasha trying to make up for their mistakes, putting Anne's desires above their own in an attempt to help her escape. I could go in to more detail, but the pattern you noticed in reunion of 'establish stakes, then shift focus right back on to the characters and their emotional turmoil' is one that when done correctly, is an incredibly effective and engaging storytelling device. Matt and crew pull off this technique perfectly, which means the epic stakes just add and build upon the character building, making us care about everything going on in the episode.

[@jadelily3428]

This season finale was absolutely amazing! I was completely blown away by it

[@jaycrews3707]

Maybe the scene was not the thing that got it delayed. But them not showing that Marcy was still alive, and them having to quickly get season 3 trailer ready showing she is not dead.

[@knarrow0222]

When I first saw True Colors, I compared it to the Marineford Arc from One Piece which both are not similar, it did have a certain theme in which both left me emotionally wrecked and drained. True Colors is a perfect finale for Season 2 of Amphibia and it blew Reunion out of the water (before someone jump the gun, I love Reunion too) Personally while I did cry during Anne's calamity powers being awaken, I cried more during Marcy's breakdown. Maybe it's because Marcy is my favorite character (and best character of the show IMO) and seeing her going through all this really made me teary eyed.

[@BowensBlvd]

By now most of your questions have been answered and it's played out well. Great direction the crew of amphibia has taken to build up to these last few episodes of season 3

[@y2kmermaid64]

I always assumed Andrias lived longer for the same reason he was so massive. That it had something to do with his genetics as a descendant of the royal family and wielder of all these weird ancient artifacts or if it has something to do with his species. I also was under the impression he wasn't exactly a newt but maybe a salamander or something (since some salamanders can live 10x that of some frogs). Not a very impressive theory but that frog was probably related to the Planters since she matched Sprig (and his coloring has been remarked as "strange" by a few characters in passing) and HopPop somehow had a book on the Calamity Box and how dangerous it is in the family library. If it was written by that frog in the flashback and she was also the one who stole it from Andrias and somehow brought it to the human world (maybe she opened a portal with it and chucked it through?) to keep it away from him that would make a lot of sense. One more cause I'm on a theory role here, I think Barrel's Warhammer that Grim has taken to using (and is clearly tied to the strength calamity jewel through it's magenta runes) might've belonged to the toad in the flashback making him Barrel. Maybe we'll get some history on that too. Anyway amped for season 3.

Fun easter eggs (idk if its really true, but thats what i found): 1. When Anne and Sasha fights in s1e20 Sasha uses her cloak to make her fall and (almost) win, in s2e20 when they fight again, Anne "learn ed" from Sasha and used it against her. 9:48 10:44 2. When Sprig falls they show all of them crying except Sasha (they showed Grime but he is just shocked) cuz she care less about him (maybe she didnt even cried). 20:30 3. When Andrias jumps, Anne falls but Marcy casualy standing. Its probably because she already used to it while its the first time Anne experienced it. 12:52

[@MouseGoat]

I mean, this has just slowly grown and grown and now s3 looks like a absolute banger of a season. Just looking at that teaser opening trailer, so so much is happening and all of it feels earned. Words fail to describe how epic i find those storylines that grow out of nothing but become epic battles waiting to happen. Like Sasha, at first i felt her character feeling 2D a cliche, but her path to becoming this epic hulk mode fighter really made me like her hot heade character. And now seeing her being a freedom fighter against a army of frog robots (or frobots) is just way to epic. Like what is s3? it looks like they starting a marvel universe. Im so stoked to se these awesome frogs try and deal with the human world. And imagen having being Anne, coming back having to relearn how to to eat food without bugs in.

[@GoreZilla1954]

I think to explain King Andreas age has to do with that he’s a giant salamander, they can live up to 200 years old. But in amphibia the animals seem to live much longer lives than how we see them in our world. Also I love this series so much, I didn’t think I’d like it when I saw commercials on TV until one day I ended up watching the S1 season finale and it was the last couple minutes and it drew me in and I can’t wait for S3.

[@plumbleebee]

Amphibia is the first show in a while that SURPRISED me with the direction and tone shift it had in season two. It was just the fun frog show to me that was generally good over all, but I wasn't obsessed with it. But season 2? And especially true colors? Changed my perspective on the entire show as a whole. suddenly I realized that season one was mostly about building Anne's character and her connection to wartwood so when season two came along they could focus more on Marcy and Sasha and the overarching plot. And because they did season 1 the way they did you really understand and feel Anne's connection to the planters and to wartwood. I love found family, and I've seen it in a lot of media I watch, so I mean it when I say Amphibia has done one of the best jobs pacing their found family and making it feel real and important to the main character that I've seen in a long time. Just the little moments, like hop pop referring to her as his adopted granddaughter, and Anne calling them her "bumpkin frog family" really added toward making her grief about losing sprig feel so raw. They put a lot of time and effort towards developing their bond especially in the first season, which I didn't even realize the extent of until true colors. How they are pacing the show is phenomenal and I really hope they keep up the good work!

[@plumbleebee]

Especially the episodes centered around her trying to pay back the planters because they've done and risked so much for her. She's aware of and acknowledges how much they've done for her, she's completely aware that it couldn't have been easy to take her in and help her so the very first episode of season 2 she's shown trying to fortify the house to pay them back. It's easy to put together a rag tag group of people and call it found family, but amphibia actually goes into roots of what makes a family a family. Even the scene where hop pop is doing taxes and says Anne is a deductible is important because all the little stuff like that really helps solidify the fact that not only are they letting her stay in her home, but she becomes in every sense, a member of their family. The raw grief she showed at the idea of losing sprig coupled with the flashback of their important moments was amazingly well done but what made me cry the hardest was their use of the end credits scene. Because it's small, it's not this monumental moment between the two, it's just her and sprig reading books and falling asleep, it's ever present just like their friendship, comfortable and always there. Which makes the thought of losing it so much worse. To us as the audience, and to Anne herself.

A clumsy, quirky nerd with high energy isn’t something you see much of in the cartoon world... Also, True Colors was the best finale I’ve ever seen. Yep...

[@ducktalesstan]

amphibia's writing, especially for their finales, is absolutely spectacular. i love that each character has depth, growth, and is allowed to be morally gray.

[@thefirepizza]

Watching this after the SERIES finale feels so surreal

[@juangonzalez740]

I lowkey want a whole vinyl for True Colors. The music is so goodddd.

[@MatsuyoRific]

I just noticed that Adnreas and his old friends were the same colors as the music box. Red, blue and green.

[@prixiejynvallenas2826]

I'm so very happy that Amphibia got nominated at Annie Awards with 3 nomination this episode True Colors include Best TV SHOWS/Media for Children and I hope they won there on Feb.26 which will announce the winner 😉🤩

[@jazzyroyer4838]

To me true colours is great because true colors gave me the stars when I expected a cloud. And I would say this is even better than the season 1 finale

[@jackthegeat2234]

Ok something I just noticed at 13:53, the “sprig’s relative” character has an orange crystal on their coat that looks SUSPICIOUSLY like a different calamity crystal. Another thing to note is that the three’s skin colors correlate to each of the crystals’ colors (Andreas = blue, frog = red, and toad = green. Andreas possibly was a previous host for the crystals).

I always was thinking the DR. P book was written by a member of the Pines family. Because of the drawing bill cypher

Recently, watching The King and the "L O R E" made me empathize with Andrias and why he is doing this

[@Blorb12]

8:35 call me a terrible person but when I first watched this episode when I saw this I burst out laughing

[@ItsMeTylerrr]

There were tears in my eyes when Marcy died :(

[@matthewsosa6239]

I can’t believe true colors was a *YEAR* Ago

[@countshrubula5997]

I think Polly having legs is one of the most cursed things that has ever been in a show' s cannon.

[@Jungoguy]

Watching this episode was like watching “The Crossroads of Destiny” from Avatar all those years ago. It was perfect, emotional, filled us with such hope and such sorrow.

[@darwinbowman8512]

That is exactly how I felt when I watched it. It was the first time in a very long time probably since avatar that a show has given me that same feeling of hype and anticipation. I quickly compared true colors to crossroads cause honestly it has the same impact. That just shows how good amphibia is

[@hugofolpp1753]

Wait a minute. I just realised. King Andrias might have had the power of one of the calamity box gems! I think it’s hinted at through colour. We all know that the blue gem is earnt by virtue of the heart, the green gem is earnt by virtue of the mind, and the pink gem is earnt by strength, and notice how him and his friends are the exact same shades of blue pink and green? I think this foreshadows that Andrias, the green toad and pink frog all held the power of one calamity gem. In addition, may I point out that that Andrias is the colour of the blue gem (meaning if this theory holds true, he likely held the blue gems power). The blue gem is earnt via virtue of the heart, so perhaps Andrias has or had more of a good, moral, kind heart than he’s letting on. King Andrias redemption ark?

[@dallaschiotti6900]

One thing i find wierd is why did sasha not just take a picture of the evil andrias mural and show it to anne before the revenge duel ik they did it to keep it a secret until the right moment but still

This may be the next Avatar or Steven Universe.

[@darwinbowman8512]

That's what I've been saying!!! This show has a avatar the last airbender vibe that I'm digging. Add in some great gravity falls esq humor and you've yourself a gold mine series.

I hope it’s like ducktales were each season is one of the characters seasons In ducktales s1 is Dewey s2 is Louie and s3 is Huey (the finale is webbys but this probably won’t be in this) And in amphibia s1 is Anne’s s2 is Marcy’s so s3 might be sashes but who knows

[@froggy822]

Marcy was my favorite character and I was hit with a wave of sadness when she died. It... hit hard. I saw her in the test tube but still...

[@thecarter01]

Man, they made 2 absolutely perfect season finales.

[@victorharrell1063]

I think king Andreas and his two friends had calamity power( as you can see, king Andreas is blue, and both of his friends are either green or pink/red.), but he wanted it to himself, so maybe he killed them(or something) and then put back in the calamity box and then someone took it from him by killing many living creatures and was afraid he would harm other worlds also.

[@davidmckenzie9086]

Did you know that the song that plays during Anne's Powers Awakening It's actually an instrumental version of no big deal

[@stormvlogsrobinson5044]

I noticed it was beautiful and tearjerking

[@teslaromans1023]

That episode was just perfect, and that’s not even an hyperbole, they literally got every single point right

[@flatstopmotions9428]

If you pay attention, when Marcy is flipping pages in the Dr P book, you can see bill cipher on the page she stops on for a little bit.

[@izuto727]

And Matt Braly confirmed that it's not just an easter egg, he said that the book is a multiverse list (which means Gargoyles cartoon is also in the same multiverse as Amphibia)

[@flatstopmotions9428]

@@izuto727 I’m not sure what the gargoyles cartoon is, but thanks for telling me about that fact!

[@HiImDaisy]

I think Andrias is gonna showcase how Annes friendship with Sasha and Marcy could’ve ended without the growth they had in Amphibia. He might also be exactly what the second temple guardian feared. He’s heart without responsibility. (Possibly) Or at the very least, he WAS heart. At some point.

[@cartoonloverzxc3237]

I will definitely enjoy some cartoons I look forward to you finally talking about the owl house my very favorite Amphibia is amazing I like season one of the best I’ve been re-watching a Amphibia a lot and getting hyped for June 12 when the owl house season to officially debuts

[@adamc4867]

So are they gonna rebuild Frobo? I feel like the fact that they brought the head with them proves that he’ll have some sort of role in season 3. And yes, the intro shows an evil, frobo-like robot, but I don’t know if that’s him. Also, was lady Olivia in on Andrias’ plan? If so, who else knew?

[@drawingmoo4109]

Not gonna lie, when they show the scene of Marcy getting back stab by King Andreas and then showing the Among us clip of back stabbing got me Laughing pretty good.
