User blog:Gman213/The end..... of part 1

I suppose this phase for all of us now is the after thoughts of what this season has shown until we meet again, and that goes for me too. I've already explained my thoughts on the first half, but the second half has also shown us a thing or two to look forward to. One thing I'm really disappointed about for this season though is not the show itself, but the scheduling Disney decided to go with. We finished this season in just a bit over a month, and it never gave us the opportunity to talk and theorize about each episode little by little cause they threw it all at us so fast. There was even this one scene where Hop Pop claimed to think they run into crazy adventures at least twice a week, which would've been funny if they were actually releasing these episodes on a weekly basis. Not only that, but now that we finished the season so fast, it also means a much longer hiatus.

But with that out of the way, they have left us quite a few things to look forward to for next season. We got the relationships like Sprig and Ivy's, considering it was hinted that they were both in love with each other by the end of the season. We got the relationship with Anne and Sasha, which is hard to make heads or tails of where their friendship stands at the moment. We got Hop Pop and Sylvia, who may even marry by the end of the series if things continue to go well with them. Polly hasn't really gotten much of a relationship with any of the townsfolk aside from the Plantar family, so maybe she'll find a special someone next season.

Now we have the main plot. Marcy is probably what the majority of fans are freaking out about because of her full absence the entire season, not to mention they didn't leave a small tease even by the end, so here's to hoping the series makes up for it big time next season. The Calamity box is still being questioned with its mysterious and dangerous power in which Hop Pop refuses to let anyone including Anne know about. Is that box really Anne's only true ticket out of Amphibia? Guess we'll find that out as well. There was also that mysterious old lady at the Bizarre Bazaar who had certain artifacts resembling the Calamity box, so if there's any good place to start looking for answers, Anne and the family might try to track her down. There's also that stone picture in the background of every intro that still hasn't been explained to us yet, so hopefully we learn more about that picture as well.

Now we obviously had the biggest episode of the series, Reunion. You could say this was plot-related because of Anne figuring out she wasn't the only person teleported to Amphibia, but I felt like this episode's main focus was to test the relationship between Anne and Sasha, and whether or not they could still call one another friends by the end of the episode. It wouldn't surprise me if people were disappointed because they weren't given enough answers or teases to the show's current mysteries, but I felt like this episode was necessary in regards to friendship.

It was obvious from the start that Anne had a rather toxic relationship between her friends, so I knew at some point in the series, Anne had to call out her friends on the harsh treatment they've shown her for so long, especially after all the things she's learned about true friendship over the months. It's kind of like ripping off the band aid, sure it's painful at first, but overtime your wound will be able to heal on its own. Now that Anne and Sasha know how they truly feel about one another, this can give them the opportunity to finally start a healthy relationship together for the first time, assuming they're willing to after the tower incident.

I've said this on a comment as well, but I still can't get over Sasha's sacrifice by the end of the episode. It seems like something in Sasha finally clicked to her about the way she took Anne for granted for so long. I don't want to take this out of proportion, but it's almost as if she didn't want to live with the horrible things she thinks she's done, and so she willingly let go while knowing the fate that was meeting her at the bottom of that tower. It does make me wonder how this incident is going to have an effect on both Anne and Grime, considering Anne isn't sure how to feel about Sasha's own feelings after what she said to her before she let go, and Grime probably thinks whatever Anne did on top of that tower to cause Sasha to fall was deliberate.

And that's about all there is to say for now. I'm probably not going to be doing very many edits on this wiki until the next season, cause my time here was more of a visit rather than becoming a regular edit worker. My main work for the fandom is with the Ducktales Wiki, and considering that show is and was still on hiatus ever since May, I figured I could work here temporarily. But to anyone who hasn't seen that show, I definitely recommend you watch it while we're waiting for season two of Amphibia. But for now, see you all for the new episodes next year!
