For those who missed it, Anne gives her mom the butterfly at the end credits of the christmas special.
@@upumpkin I was rewatching that episode yesterday and noticed it
Since Spring was sharing about his mother's passing with Anne, i know what it's like to loose a parent. I lost my dad exactly 2 years ago. I miss him so much.... 😢😢😢
Sorry to hear. Lost my grandpa a while back. Wishing you the best. 🙏
Same bro
I lost mine too. Sure I have my step-dad, but it's not the same.
I'm sorry to hear I know how hard it is to lose someone
I also know I lost my mom when I was 6
I never skip this episode and love how we actually see her give the butterfly to her mom in the Christmas episode . I still cry at this line "can you miss someone you never actually knew?"
Time to go rewatch Amphibia again for the hundredth time
@@alysssabear OMG SAMEEEEEEEEEE
“Hopping mall” was an amazing episode, it also shows how amazing amphibia is it can have an episode with a silly story, but has an ending that can touch your heartstrings so much, seriously the fact they don’t play the normal credits music at the end shows how much the ending hits
The fact that the present is “from the heart” and it’s blue (which is the colour of heart in amphibia) is beautiful
This episode was the first piece of animated media that made me cry as hard as I could. I cry every single time I rewatch it. It's incredible
Honestly, I think Amphibia perfectly exemplifies the impact of the journey over the destination. We often look over the journey as just a “in-between” point that doesn’t matter, but often times crazily important things in our lives happen in just small little moments. You may not see it in that moment, but you often realize it when looking back on your life, the impact those small moments had on the entire trajectory of your life.
When I first watched Amphibia, I almost dropped it after the first 10 episodes, but I decided to finish the first season because I wanted to see if the show would go anywhere. The season finale really gripped me and made me decide to give the second season a chance. Hopping mall felt like a big turning point in Amphibia and it made me realize that I hadn’t payed attention to my family in a while. After the epsisode ended (and my eyes full of tears) I dropped everything I was doing at the moment and gave both my parents a hug. It probably weirded them out, but I didn’t care. Amphibia is now my favorite animated series of all time because of its characters and themes, and this video really captures that. Thanks for the video and I’d love to see more about the silly frog show!
Silly frog show?! 0:43 SILLY FROG SHOW!!! :D 0:57
Silly frog show😭🥹
My Amphibia perfect episode is Toad Tax, because it really kicked off and embodied the main themes of the show and Anne's character. But also my two Amphibia hot takes are: I always loved the filler episodes and think s1 is severely underrated, and I think Reunion is better than True Colors.
Well, in Reunion we got Sasha trying to unalive herself, and in True Colors we got pain, a lot of pain
What would it have been like if, like with Marco, when Anne arrived on Earth, her mother was pregnant?
Anne: Is it a boy or a girl?
Mrs Boonchuy: I think girl
Anne: I will have a sister! (later in the epilogue Anne and her little sister train just like Gohan and Goten)
@@avch1209 a
Honestly I gotta agree that reunion is better than true colors.
@@Blakey094 and True Colors is better than The Hardest Thing C:
The last minute is pretty genius in writing, using the last line of a hardest thing and Leif's letter. I personally learned nothing, but that's gonna hit hard for someone else eventually. Bravo dude.
*Oh no I killed Sprig*
More amphibia vids, please this was so good, and the show it's self is amazing
"how could you miss someone you never knew?" I STARTED TO CRY
":Sprig Spranne against the world :Anne "Spranne against the world **insert their adorable sibling handshake**" I STARTED BAWLING MY FREAKING EYES OUT Omg T•T
Okay, first off great video. Secondly, my favorite was the hardest thing because every time I CRY at the end when sprig hugs Anne. Like I understood that he had lost his mother and didn't want to lose Anne to but then he could finally let go. I CRIED MAN
Me too!!! 😭💔
Dang, i was not expecting the video about the silly frog show with occasional deep and philosophical messages to end on such a deep and philosophical message
Beautiful vid! I'm definitely one of those people who take Amphibia for granted, but it's always nice to see stuff like this connect and go deeper than you'd expect
I definitely agree with this being a Very Impactful and Perfect episode. My maternal grandparents died when *my mom* was still a young kid. I often forget its "normal" to have two sets of grandparents. I think about what I know about them sometimes, and my mom is big on ancestry, but this episode, Sprigs line "I've always wondered if you could miss someone you never even knew," fuckin. Oh man. I don't cry over shows often but this got me. It's a highlight in a show about relationships of all kinds, connecting and severing them, growing with and past them, how complex they are. Grief is love with no where to go, after all.
Love with nowhere to go, and the knowledge that you and they will never feel that love again. … Both before and after I started to believe in an afterlife, I kind of struggled to figure out what the big deal with grief is, until now.
Thank you, stranger :)
1:53 that spider sprig statement is so unbelievably accurate
i don't know why but this feeling it's incredible, i felt like this when i have seen the ending of the season 3 with an old friend and now it's strange.
i'm happy and sad at the same time, i don't know what to say other than thank you to give me this feeling.
I really want a hug now.
Incredible video, you turned in words the exact feeling I got watching this episode for the first time. It is very special to me. That way the episode send you the real thing is instantly shifting all your feelings, it make you understand life in a certain way, the importance of connections and bonds. It is so deep and it is the episode who made me fall in love with Amphibia and the way it was written. Thanks for this. Hope to see more content about it !
7:00 so emotional, just subscribed 😢😢
I think i’ve never cried this much before in a video. Thanks, this show is just the best. ❤️
I will preach this to the moon and back. There is no such thing as filler in shows like Amphibia. Filler is a term designed for Anime, designated to episodes that were added in to slow the rate of production of the show so they would stay behind the manga. It is impossible for Amphibia to have an episode like this. All episodes people deem to be "filler" develop characters, build relationships, or just generally develop our knowledge of the world. I say this as someone who much prefers plot-based shows over episodic shows, and to an extent, character-driver shows, this so called "filler" is some of the most important parts of Amphibia.
This videos ending though...
I'm not crying your crying! 😭
The only time I ever busted a tear is when I watched the hardest thing that was the only time all other heart touching stuff. I just took it like a champ, and watch it with a straight face
In terms of Amphibia episode that’s self contained and really embodies the show as whole, I’d say Wally & Anne. This is a character driven episode and focuses on a pointless side character before this episode, giving Wally some depth and Anne some development as well as establishing her relationship with Wally. Yeah it would help seeing the other episodes that included Wally to see what makes this episode good but I think it’s good without prior context. It hits all of Amphibia’s best qualities (Good characterization, solid humor, nuance messages, good character dynamic, & emotional moments). Anne can relate to Wally being an outcast and their journey to discovering that, but also the common ground that being different was okay, is what makes it my perfect episode that isn’t plot driven or important.
@@JustAguy006 yess 100% it’s probably my favourite episode
Thank you so much for making this video and for reminding us about how important our relationships and the love we share with each other is in our lives. Time may cause us to lose those that we love now but finding new people to share our love means that no matter what happens we are not alone and always have someone who cares about us. I’m am glad to be a subscriber to your growing community of 50.9k. Keep up with the great work and hope to hear from you soon with another great video.
Ngl, this video is making me want to rewatch Amphibia more than before. I don't know why I didn't do it yet
Similar to this, my favourite owl house episode is reaching out, lumity,, goofy eda, king and blight twins shenanigans, and the biggest gut punch any piece of media has ever given me, incredible.
yeahh, King's Tide and Agony of a Witch are awesome but they aren't too good, but Reaching Out is fu----- perfection, it is the magnum opus of the show
For once someone agrees with me hopping mall is goated
I knew it. I wasn't insane. Excelent video, my friend. The series was already very good from the beginning, but it gave a tremendous turn with the confrontation of Anne and Sasha and the development of their relationship being one of the most important points, besides the musical section, animation and photography that is sublime, hehe. But where it ended up conquering me completely was Hopping Mall, a chapter that seems episodic and helps to contribute to advance the story, but ends up being a chapter with emotional tones and levels, external and internal, how Anne feels around this world and those who inhabit it and their relationships, especially with Sprig. But it makes us remember that she wants to go home and contrary to series of this type (when the main character goes to another world to have a better life and blah,blah) she improves to achieve that goal. But the heavy stuff comes when she remembers her mother at home singing and she starts crying and hugs Sprig, who is upset that he can't remember hers, and finally breaks down. That hit hard.
Sprigs line hit like a punch in the gut. His mother hadn’t been mentioned up until that point and suddenly she was dead, it was such whiplash
This moment with Sprig may be the most relatable moment for me out of all fiction. I know what it's like to lose your parent at the very young age - i lost my mum, just like Sprig, when i was 8 years old. Like Sprig, i also wondered can you miss someone you never actually knew, but of course you can.
Moments like this is why i think Amphibia is maybe my favorite show ever
how is no one talking about how sprig literally hit a black flash in 10:44
REAL
11 days after his bday and mines was just today ... not exactly what I expected but this video was for sure a gift
Amphibia is the type of series to make you feel like watching the most brainrot or emotion you can depending on the episode.
it absolutely is, and i am 100% on board with that. sometimes we need to watch something that makes you question what you are watching, like how many Season 1 episodes are.
You described pretty well, how I felt during Hopping Mall… and I actually knew without watching the first seconds it would be so. It‘s not without reasons my favourite Amphibia episode.
Wait wait. So according to you the BEST episode has ZERO MARCY?????? shame on you. Shame
Marcy is love. Marcy is life💚💚💚
@@Misty_Grey744 more than life. She us the being beyond all beauty, a deity of love if you will and i would do anything for her
I'm not a simp you are
@@Hoodie0.0 I didn’t expect my sapphic ass to be called out today but ok…
Amphibia community might be smaller but its impact is alive and well🤎
Yeah ❤
Yas mor frogs plise (and some owls)
I was crying when the final episode came out 😭
Me too I bawled so hard it was bittersweet and I LOVED and hated it at the same time
Great video And i agree
And also I love the bit with you talking about the subscribing and danm the ending just danm both ending’s also I would like more of amphibia
This episode caught me so off guard and it's one of my favorite episodes in the entire series
can I say. This is one of my favorite amphibia breakdowns? Would you call it, ever even while the show was running and I’ve been here since Anne or beast. This one hit home. Please more frog content!!
its crazy to think that amphibia never gets old even after watching it for the thousanth time two years after it ended.
this show had me from episode 1b but Hopping Mall made me SOB and really solidified this as a comfort show to me.
Seeing this video after finishing Amphibia with my friends hurts me. Hearing those words again really hits harder when you think about it.
I’m about to cry over this damn show for the thousandth time
Join the club 😢
I totally thought that Amphibia was just some offbrand gravity Falls so I didn’t watch it but here I am now with Marcy’s journal and hand
I almost cried on this video he did so good with the script for the video
Hopping mall clips is what got me into the show.
The marcy poster in the bg ToT
this was definitely a great episode and bluntest Disney would ever be about the death of a parent up until the owl house one upped it with Luzs dad in reaching out soon after
My mom died two months ago. Congrats, dude. You made me cry so much, AHHAHAHAha (great video :D)
omg… i just noticed this in the background are bootlegs of my favorite stores!!! hot topic and claires 11:53
I don't agree that Hopping Mall was the best or perfect episode, but I agree with everything else. Especially about the idea of Amphibia's 'filler' episodes. I mean, just try to understand how Anne became a Plantar and improved so much as a person WITHOUT the filler episodes and adventures that taught her taking the easy way out or not standing up for herself can end badly for her or the ones she loves. Try being affected by Marcy's 'death' in true colors WITHOUT all the adventures that made her such a relatable character in the first place. Or try seeing Sasha as anything other than a one dimensional bully or manipulator WITHOUT the filler episodes between her and Grime. Amphibia doesn't do filler in the traditional sense. The episodes may count as filler in any other show, but not in this show.
I keep rewatching the show over and over again and again.
I watched the entire 1st season at once (frog help me)
Absolutely beautiful…
I only cried ONCE while I was watching any sort of content and it was the last episode of amphibia and I did two more times when I whached it again!
0:17 never let this meme die.
The video thumbnail showed what episode you chose, so I already knew what it was right away, but I agree
Oh my frog, we have the same birthday! So cool! Happy birthday!Anyways, I definitely would enjoy some more Amphibia content (and for the record, I enjoyed the spider-verse videos too), but yeah, great analysis as always!
U got me teary
I'm 30 and I need those youtube videos about frog shows and not only!
30 too and love those frogs!
"Suffer while i scream at you" 😂
thanks, ever since ive subscribed, my tastes are no longer trash
Gotta love spidersprig ;)
My friend and I started this show as a chill, less heavy show to relax too. I can't picture skipping any of the filler because episodes like Hopping Mall wouldn't hit as hard.
Heck, yeah man, I couldn’t agree. More filler episodes really help shine the characters and show their personalities and every traits. and like you said, they’re sometimes not worth it to watch it, but actually they are and make the show and characters more lovable. thanks for reminding me of filler episodes, man.
Wow you pointet Out what i Love about this Show
and the amazing part of it is that i have the Same Feelings now Like i had when i watch this show for the first time
Wait, your birthday was 9 days ago, mine too! Oh and Happy Birthday🎉
The spider-sprig slander lol
Happy belated birthday!!!
Oh, so this is about "Hopping Mall" judging from the thumbnail?
@@olleselin maybe, probably
Maybe… 👀
What do you headcannon Spring & Polly’s parents? Who do you think they were?
I would love more amphibia videos!!
"I'm a silly SA youtuber I don't go outside" killed me😂
No offense to those who seen the episode hopping mall, but I don’t get why people cry to that end scene. Yes, it is sad but it’s not that sad. Like I said before the only other time I ever cried to the series to an episode specifically is the hardest thing every other episode that has a sad scene. I just watched it with a straight face.
I hope you don’t have have to understand there is nothing in this world that hurts like losing someone you love
THIS IS AMAZING
20:30 got me off guard
I watched every single episode of Amphibia, starting with Ann or beast and ending at the hardest thing I don’t really care if it’s filler or not
Perfect outro dude. this is my favorite show also I got jumps cared by hop pop writing this comment😂
3 COMPLETE SEASONS, DISNEY absolutely killed me bro
WHY U MAKIN ME CRY MAN😭
YES WE NEED MORE AMPHIBIA CONTENT PLS DO
DANG, OK, CAUGHT ME CRYING OVER A SILLY FROG SHOW AGAIN
Dang bruh, got my eyes watering.
the end is so sad 😭 and that episode is good
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 oh my frogging god thank you for making this video i loved the ending
more amphibia please, will watch it
Hopping Mall isn’t my favorite episode but it does AT LEAST have one of my top three endings to an episode in the entire series.
“There is no filler only world and character building”
- Me
For some reason I seem to enjoy the "filler" episodes of shows on the 2nd time watching it much more then the first time. I think this video may have explained why.
This is what I always say season 1 of Amphibia is really underrated because while it doesn’t advance the main plot season 1 makes you care about every person in wart wood because we see more of thier character obviously and we also see how they grow to like Anne and how Anne progress into a hero and makes you really care when wart wood is in danger the Wally and Anne episode is a perfect example imo and one of the best episodes in the show
And imo Amphibia is better then owl house and more tied for avatar the last airbender in the greatest tv shows of all time
All the episodes were perfect.....The s3 finale made me bawl my freaking eyes out
this is why i always hated season 1 slander because if it wasnt for season 1 i wouldn't have cared for amphibia at all when it was about to be destroyed. season 1 really helped build the characters as people you care about
I believe, especially as a first time viewer, skipping "filler" episodes makes the whole show less impactfull. The ending but also hopping mall hits so hard BECAUSE we see Anne and Sprig grow closer together through "meaningless" adventures and strenghthening their bond. If I would only watch the plot episodes the whole crew wouldnt mean that much to me and the ending wouldnt be as bittersweet as it is
1:06 ALL EPISODES WITH MARCY IN THEM.
Also, I wanted to add something. I absolutely love how in this show how they actually use the life lessons they learn in the rest of it. Like, when Anne comes home to earth, she had CHANGED. I feel like there’s a lot of shows where it’s just meant to teach the kids something, but the characters don’t actually learn it. Anyways, yap session over 😭😭
You are very welcome
