The animated series Amphibia features a number of characters created by Matt Braly. The series centers on Anne Boonchuy who opens a mysterious music box that transports herself and her friends to the world of Amphibia. Anne is adopted by the Plantars, the adventurous Sprig, feisty Polly, and the wise Hop Pop as they go on various adventures and face numerous dangers. Anne's human friends include Sasha and Marcy. Much of the show revolves around Anne interacting with the residents of Wartwood who start off hostile towards her but slowly welcome her as one of them.

This is a list of the characters that appear in this show.

Overview[edit]

Anne Boonchuy[edit]

Anne Savisa Boonchuy (Thai: แอนน์ สาวิสา บุญช่วย) is a Thai-American human girl originally from Los Angeles, California,[3] who, on her 13th birthday, is magically transported to Amphibia alongside her friends Sasha and Marcy by a mysterious chest known as the Calamity Box. She is a self-assured and fearless teen with the spirit of an adventurer. Upon her arrival, she loses her right shoe. After living in the jungle for two weeks, she is found by Sprig Plantar and quickly befriends him. She is discovered by the rest of the Plantars and the town of Wartwood who reluctantly let her stay with them.[4] While slightly angsty around the Plantars at first, she realizes that they want to care for her and does her best to please them, especially Sprig who she has a lot in common with.[5] She lives in their basement which is prone to flooding.[6] Over the course of the first season, Anne displays bouts of homesickness and imprints her hobbies on the Plantars, such as her love of pizza,[7] her pet cat Domino,[8] her TV habits,[9] her obsession with couples,[10] her restaurateur abilities[11] and her dancing prowess.[12] Over time, Anne has grown to love the family as her own and does not wish any harm come to them,[13] though she can sometimes be purposefully manipulative to them to get what she wants.[14] While the Wartwood citizens openly mock her at first, they slowly warm up to her and accept her as one of them after she protects them from debt collector Toads that the Mayor had cheated.[15] After the Wartwood citizens threw a celebration for her, Anne is reunited with Sasha who she learns is in league with the Toad Warriors.[16] Anne eventually comes to the realization that Sasha had been manipulative of her throughout their friendship and is forced to fight her. They become separated afterward, with Anne becoming distraught over losing her but promising to make things right with her in the future.[17]

In season two, Anne and the Plantars leave Wartwood to find answers to how Anne came to Amphibia and how she can get back.[18] They arrive in Newtopia where Anne is happily reunited with Marcy. She was initially protective of her due to her clumsiness but has now accepted that she can take care of herself.[19] Anne was also shown to be slightly jealous of Marcy's intelligence but realized that she was better at being social than her, thus evening them out.[20] While in Newtopia, Anne comes to grips with the fact that she misses her mother most of all and that she would want to be with her more than anything in the world.[21] Together with Marcy, they come to accept that despite her genuinely caring about them Sasha had always looked down on them to a degree. However, they will get her back regardless.[22] Upon discovering that the Calamity Box has lost its power and needs to be recharged (it was left back in Wartwood), Anne becomes solemn over leaving the Plantars, and upon seeing this Marcy lets her to go back with them so they can retrieve the box together and meet up at the first temple.[23] Upon returning to Wartwood, Anne reveals that she is a practitioner of Muay Thai, due to her mother's insistence.[24] She finds out about Hop Pop lying to her about the Calamity Box and becomes angered. When she learns that Hop Pop's fears are related to the death of Sprig and Polly's parents, she forgives him,[25] but admits that she needs time to herself.[26] She later successfully completes the second temple by not only admitting to being dishonest, such as lying about stealing the Calamity Box, but also proving her courageousness in the face of danger. However, she only partially charges her gem as the blue hue in her eyes had not fully been filtered out and her gem begins to flicker.[27] Afterwards, she reunites with Sasha, though she reluctantly accepts her help with the third temple.[28] When Anne discovers Andrias' true intentions with the Calamity Box, she becomes determined to stop him and unleashes her inert blue energy that allows her to fight back. She returns home to Los Angeles, along with the Plantars and the head of Frobo.[29]

In season three, Anne is happily reunited with her parents and introduces them to the Plantars. Her parents note that she has matured significantly and shows a better appreciation for the things they do for her. She even changes her attire upon returning to Earth. While trying to fend off a Cloak-Bot that was sent after her by Andrias, Anne realizes that she still has the blue gem energy within her, though she has decided to deter from using it, as it tires her out.[30] She eventually comes clean to her parents about why and how she returned and while they are upset with her for keeping information from them, but they realize that she was trying to protect them and the Plantars.[31] In "Froggy Little Christmas", Anne anonymously writes a letter to Marcy and Sasha's parents promising to get them home safely.[32] After donning a similar outfit to what she wore when she first arrived in Amphibia, Anne eventually makes peace with the fact that she will be leaving her parents again to get back to Amphibia. Upon returning, she and the Plantars find Amphibia in ruins.[33] She happily reunites with Sasha. Despite her insistence on taking over the resistance against Andrias, Anne reveals that she now has faith in her to do the right thing. She helps to take down one of the factories. Afterwards, it was noticed that one of her shoes was lost in an earlier incident with a quicksand pit.[34] Anne later comes to terms with the fact that she and Sasha may have directly influenced Marcy's actions that sent them to Amphibia, but learns to forgive her as she had done for Sasha and Hop Pop.[35] Finally knowing who she is and want she wants to do, Anne battles Andrias and defeats him while also freeing Marcy. Only to return to Amphibia and witnessing the moon falling towards them.[36]

Realizing that the moon is falling because of the Core, Anne, Sasha and Marcy are imbued with the gem powers to push it back. Unable to do so, Anne absorbs all the gem powers and destroys the moon and the Core, but loses her life in the process. She encounters the Gem Guardian who offers that she replace her as the new guardian, but she turns it down as she is still a teenager and does not have the wisdom to watch over the universe. The entity agrees and returns Anne to life where she happily reunites with her friends. She has one final goodbye with the Plantars before returning home alongside Sasha and Marcy. Ten years later, Anne has become a herpetologist and works at the Aquarium of the Pacific where she cares for a frog named Sprig.[37]

Sprig Plantar[edit]

Sprig Plantar is a pink Poison dart frog and Anne's best friend.[39] He is a very adventurous and energetic whose both qualities that can bring him to adventure and into trouble respectively.[40] Despite acting carelessly at times, he is utterly loyal to his friends and family, and will ultimately do what is right in the end. It is also implied that Sprig has ADHD as he admits that he has a short attention span.[41] He was the first person to befriend Anne and showed the most sympathy towards her plight; having to convince Hop Pop to take her in.[4] Despite being very close with Anne, he would still prefer his own personal space[6] and has admitted that he has no romantic interest in her.[42] While he can be at odds with Hop Pop,[43] Sprig does care about him a lot and likes to spend personal time with him.[44] Sprig also has a typical sibling rivalry with Polly but is also protective of her.[45] Early in the first season, Sprig gets roped into an arranged marriage with the creepy Maddie Flour.[7] While he stayed loyal about it, they ultimately broke it off with Sprig realizing that Maddie was pretty cool despite her personality.[46] He actually develops a closer relationship with Ivy Sundew, whom he has known since childhood. He saw her as a friend, but slowly fell in love with her[10] and has since tried impressing her.[47] They eventually become a couple by the end of the season.[16] When Sasha returns and pushes her influence on Anne, Sprig steps up for her and heroically tells her that Anne deserved better and that she had been a terrible friend to her.[17]

In season two, Sprig and his family travel with Anne to Newtopia to look for clues regarding the Calamity Box.[18] While on the road, Sprig displays natural hunting skills, that he teaches to Anne,[48] as well as perfect vocal mimicry.[49] Upon arriving in Newtopia, the group meets Marcy, one of Anne's friends, and Sprig becomes highly suspicious of her and protective of Anne due to their past meeting with Sasha. He ultimately accepts her as a friend.[19] Sprig is also revealed to be smart to a certain degree as he was immediately accepted into Newtopia University despite his age. He drops out almost right away due to the pressure.[50] In "Hopping Mall", he tells Anne that he does not remember his mom as he was too little. This news brings him and Anne closer together.[21] Upon his return to Wartwood, he begins to openly date Ivy Sundew.[51] In the season two finale, he and his family accompany Anne back to her home in Los Angeles.[29]

In season three, Sprig and his family join Anne when she is transported back to Los Angeles.[30] He becomes particularly obsessed with being considered a Boonchuy as Anne is considered a Plantar.[52] He is revealed to be a natural in Sepak takraw.[53] He turns 11 in "Sprig's Birthday" and further reveals that his signature hat was given to him by his parents.[54] At one point, he tries to become a superhero named Frog-Man (in the mold of Spider-Man), but gives up when he realizes that he was simply seeking attention.[55] Sprig eventually returns to Amphibia with Anne and his family.[33] He resumes his relationship with Ivy, much to everyone's annoyance, but when the two of them nearly ruin a mission, they decide to pull it back a bit.[56] He also overcomes his prejudice with Grime and begins to take fighting advice from him.[57] Sprig becomes instrumental in defeating Andrias when he reads him a letter he found that came from Leif, which is enough to drive him to tears.[36]

As Anne saves Amphibia from the Core, Sprig finally accepts the fact that Anne will leave forever. He has one final goodbye with her before she is gone for good. In the epilogue, Sprig has devoted himself to becoming an adventurer and prepares to travel to a new continent alongside Ivy.[37]

Hop Pop Plantar[edit]

Hopediah "Hop Pop" Plantar is an orange Poison dart frog who is the grandfather of Sprig and Polly, and the adoptive grandfather of Anne.[59] Very protective of his grandkids, Hop Pop was unsure of taking Anne in due to her strange anatomy.[4] However, he learns to welcome her when she owns up to accidentally breaking his cane.[60] Hop Pop is prone to be stuck in his old ways. He eventually bonds with Anne when he realizes that they share a lot in common in terms of personality.[41] He was also rather bossy to the kids but learns to be open-minded when Sprig brings him humility,[43] and is also opportunistic.[10] He is well informed about the Calamity Box, the music box that brought Anne and her friends to Amphibia, but feigns understanding anything about it due to its dangerous origins.[61] After operating as a beetle racer called "Wrecker", he buries it in his front lawn to prevent any danger and has been hiding it from Anne since.[42] Oddly enough, he was oblivious at the knowledge that the Plantars have had a long storied history of being adventurers and explorers, but did not seem all that bothered upon learning so.[62] Hop Pop loves his grandchildren evenly, though Sprig can be more bothersome to him than Polly. He had a long reciprocated love with Ivy Sundew's grandmother and Felicia Sundew's mother, Sylvia Sundew who upon returning to Wartwood Swamp, resumed her relationship with him.[12] Throughout the first season, Hop Pop struggles to keep his fruit stand up and running and ends up losing it when he cannot pay his debt; effectively putting him out of a job.[63] He fights against the system by running for Mayor against Mayor Toadstool but loses when he fails to reach out to the inhabitants outside of Wartwood Swamp. However, the Wartwood Swamp citizens build him a new stand to show their support.[64] His efforts are revealed to have been viewed as a threat by the Toads of Toad Tower who try, but fail, to get rid of him.[17]

In season two, Hop Pop leads Anne and the Plantars to Newtopia in a "fwagon" (short for family wagon) and leaves their house in the care of Chuck. He opts to leave the Calamity Box behind, claiming that he had a friend who was examining it.[18] While on the road, Hop Pop displays a heroic attitude[65] and further revels on his failed background as an actor, getting the chance to fulfill this dream, albeit with criminals.[66] While in Newtopia, he briefly has a crisis when he realizes that he is not ready for Sprig to leave him[50] and learns from an old friend named Sal that he needs to embrace change and the future.[67] Anne figures out that Hop Pop had been lying to her about the Calamity Box. He soon reveals to her that he had feared losing Sprig and Polly as he when he ventured out years ago, their parents were killed by monster herons and he has blamed himself for not being there to protect them. Anne forgives him for trying to hide the box and he agrees to help her continue her search home.[25] In the season two finale, Hop Pop accompanies Anne back to Los Angeles along with his grandkids.[29]

In season three, Hop Pop and his family join Anne when she is transported back to Los Angeles.[30] He begins to view their time in Anne's world as important and does not want to be seen as unimportant or taking advantage of the Boonchuys. He is revealed to be a natural at Khon,[53] and befriends an aspiring elderly actor who looks like him named Humphrey Westwood.[69] Hop Pop eventually returns to Amphibia with Anne and his family.[33] He and his family end up returning to Earth when Andrias starts his invasion. During this time, he is confronted by two mind controlled herons that just so happen to be the same ones that killed his family. With Anne's help, he overcomes this and tames them with the help of Sprig and Polly.[36]

Following Anne saving Amphibia and her leaving back home alongside Sasha and Marcy, Hop Pop continues to garden, now including California Avocados. He is also shown to have settled with Sylvia Sundew.[37]

Bill Farmer, who provides the voice for Hop Pop, named the character as one of his favorite roles.[70] He also felt he had a greater creative control on his performance as Hop Pop than other roles such as Goofy due to not being a pre-existing character.[71]

Polly Plantar[edit]

Polly Petunia Plantar is Sprig's outgoing and fearless polliwog sister. She loves adventure, monsters, and having fun with her family. Although she is young, she has the heart of an explorer. Upon meeting Anne, Polly was disappointed in the fact that she was not a ferocious monster.[5] Polly spends much of the first season as a comic foil while being viewed as a helpless child, despite displaying abilities to the contrary. She is an expert spitter and does not like situating herself in typical "girly" roles. She also has the unusual ability to expel a powerful shriek which she refers to as "singing".[74] She thinks that romance is gross[10] and loves to be in charge by displaying her cuteness.[45] However, Polly is shown to be frightened by scary things and does not like to be alone.[75] Plus, she still needs to be saved from danger due to being small enough for predators.[76] She once claimed that she has been eaten eight times throughout her life and "looks forward to it".[77] Nevertheless, she is a major force to be reckoned with and has gotten Anne and her family out of serious conflicts with nothing, but sheer determination and her amazing prowess.[62]

In season two, Polly, her family, and Anne head off to Newtopia to seek answers for the Calamity Box.[18] While on the road, she fears that she is considered a nuisance due to her young age, but realizes that her family loves her unconditionally. She is also shown to have the ability to conduct electricity,[78] and has perfect vocal mimicry.[49] Upon reaching Newtopia, Polly learns from Anne's friend Marcy that she will eventually grow legs in two months' time.[19] She also attempts to be closer to Anne by hanging out with her, though in their usual fashion they end up causing trouble for everyone.[3] Sprig reveals that Polly never met their mother as she was too little to know her.[21] Upon returning to Wartwood, Polly gets her first taste of responsibility when she takes up Frobo, a robot frog that had been following the Plantars.[79] In the season two finale, Polly finally grows her legs, though they are rather minuscule, and accompanies Anne back to her home in Los Angeles.[29]

In season three, Polly and her family join Anne when she is transported back to Los Angeles.[30] She is revealed to have picked up Thai language fluently after watching numerous Thai rom-coms.[53] She attempts to rebuild Frobo, but ultimately only succeeds in bringing his head back to life. However, with the help of the IT Girls, she also picks up knowledge on robotics and electronics.[80] Polly eventually returns to Amphibia with Anne and her family.[33] She later uses her newfound electronic skills to rebuild and upgrade Frobo.[36]

Following Anne saving Amphibia and her leaving back home alongside Sasha and Marcy, Polly immediately grows a strand of hair. Sometime later, Polly eventually becomes a full frog, though she still lacks the familiar frog snout.[37]

Sasha Waybright[edit]

Sasha Elizabeth Waybright[82] is Anne and Marcy's friend who was captured by Grime and eventually became his new lieutenant after she proved her prowess in battle. In spite of her manipulative and bossy nature, she does genuinely care about her friends. Upon her capture at the hands of Grime and the Toads, Sasha used her persuasive abilities to have the Toads be friendly and serve her. When their tower gets attacked by a pair of giant herons, Sasha convinces Grime to take her advice so that they could defeat the herons in battle. Pleased with the outcome, Sasha is made lieutenant by Grime, a position she hopes to use to find her friends.[83] She eventually reunites with Anne at the end of "Anne of the Year" and reveals her connection with the Toads, inviting all of Wartwood to Toad Tower for a celebratory banquet.[16] While Sasha is happy to be with Anne again, she reveals the motivation behind inviting Wartwood to the tower, which is to sacrifice Hop Pop due to his status as an unintentional revolutionary symbol. Sasha duels with Anne to determine Hop Pop's fate, and initially has the upper hand. Sasha loses the duel when Anne stands up to her once and for all, and her right cheek is permanently scarred. When the tower is destroyed by One-Eyed Wally's exploding boom-shrooms, Sasha begins to fall off some crumbling masonry but is narrowly rescued by Anne and the Plantars. However, she comes to the realization that she has indeed been a terrible friend and willingly lets herself fall, but is saved by Grime who takes her away.[17]

Sometime later, Sasha tries to uphold Grime's reputation; angered at his now lazy and unmotivated self. While battling General Yunan, Sasha admits that she does not want to lose Grime because he is her only friend, causing Grime to deduce that Sasha misses Anne and that she believes she has permanently ruined her friendship with her. After defeating Yunnan, the two decide to take over Newtopia by force. She proves her worth to the other Toad captains by helping Grime retrieve Barrel's Warhammer, during which she admits that she wants to prove that she can make it on her own without Anne and Marcy after learning that they have teamed up. However, in the process, she loses Grime's remaining subordinates Percy and Braddock who believe that she has become too harsh.[85] Sasha and Grime later reunite with Anne, Marcy and the Plantars; claiming that they have changed and want to help. She helps out with the third temple and recharges the final gem while losing the pink hue in her eyes. Despite having supposedly been redeemed in Anne and Marcy's eyes, she and Grime are continuing their plan, which she now seems to regret due to how it would affect Anne and Marcy if this plan goes through.[28] Despite this, she denies having any sentimentality when speaking to Grime, but loses her temper when Anne and Marcy bring up her past misdeeds. She accepts that while she may not have changed yet, her friends have and must learn to cope with that.[86] She also learns to be less in control and more supportive when she, Anne and Marcy reform their garage band, Sasha and the Sharps.[87] She and Grime attempt to put her plan into motion, but discover too late that Andrias had sinister plans for Amphibia and tries to stop him. She allows Anne to escape back to Los Angeles while she stays behind in Amphibia to help Grime thwart Andrias.[29]

Sasha ends up fleeing to Wartwood with Grime where she begins to realize that her actions resulted in Marcy getting severely injured. She finds Anne's journal and touched by how much her friendship meant to her, decides to instead lead the Wartwood citizens to fight Andrias.[88] Between Anne teleporting to Los Angeles and returning to Wartwood, Sasha had become a resistance leader in the fight against Andrias. Afraid that she will somehow ruin her friendship with Anne again, Sasha tries to pass command duties to her, who turns out to be bad at it. Anne eventually reveals that she has renewed confidence in her to do the right thing and Sasha takes command again. Sasha also decided that she and Anne will co-lead the resistances and they both vow to rescue Marcy from King Andrias.[34] Her relationship with the citizens of Wartwood has vastly improved, though she admits that she has to make difficult decisions with them.[89] Sasha admits that she is upset with Marcy for putting them in the situation that they are in, but Anne tells her that she needs to learn to forgive much like how she did with her.[35] Thanks to this, Sasha overcomes her past and frees Marcy from the Core's control.[36]

Sasha is eventually imbued with the pink gem power to help with defeating the Core, but has to give it up to Anne so that she can defeat it on her own. She has an emotional goodbye with Grime before leaving. Ten years later, Sasha has earned a psychology degree and become a peer counselor for children, though she still maintains her tough and determined spirit.[37]

While only implied and not outright stated within the show, Matt Braly confirmed that Sasha is bisexual.[90]

Captain Grime[edit]

Captain Grimothy "Grime" is a one-eyed cane toad who is the former ruler of Toad Tower. Early in the series, he captures Sasha and believes her to be a spy after he shows her Anne's missing shoe.[5] While intimidating, his army is the total opposite; composed of cowards who would rather do anything other than be ruthless guards for his conquered land. When a couple of giant herons proceeds to attack Toad Tower, he finds an unlikely ally in his former prisoner Sasha, who convinces him to be more accepting to his lackeys and be more positive and uplifting. After the Toads manage to defeat the herons, Grime realizes the value that Sasha holds and makes her his lieutenant.[83] Sometime later, Grime leads his army to capture the frogs in Wartwood, following Hop Pop's failed effort to replace Mayor Toadstool and plans to have him killed. At his suggestion, Anne and Sasha do battle with one another, ending with the destruction of Toad Tower. Grime rescues Sasha, showing that he genuinely cares about her well-being, and flees with the Toads.[17]

Since then, Grime has lost most of his army, leaving only Percy, Braddock, and Sasha. He has become a lazy, unmotivated moocher who spends his time watching Sasha's phone. He is branded a traitor by Newtopia and becomes a wanted criminal with General Yunnan pursuing him. However, Sasha inspires him to regain his former glory by creating a new army to take over Newtopia. He makes a plea to the other Toad captains, including his younger sister Beatrix, to lead an army uprising against King Andrias and proves his worth by having himself and Sasha retrieve Barrel's Warhammer, successfully doing so.[85] They join Anne, Marcy and the Plantars with completing the third temple and while Sasha appears to finally feel accepted by her friends, Grime insists they continue with their plan.[28] He and Sasha stay with the Sundews while in Wartwood where he displays a playful jovial side.[86] Additionally, he is well learned with the harp and capable of playing beautiful melodies.[87] Despite this, he tries to usurp King Andrias for rule over Amphibia, but discovers that he already has sinister motives for the land. Grime ultimately helps Anne escape back to Los Angeles.[29]

Grime and Sasha end up fleeing to Wartwood to escape Andrias. He plans to continue running and meet up with the rest of the toads that evaded capture, but gets coaxed by Sasha to stay and defend Wartwood, ultimately taking her lead instead.[88] He is soon forced to train Sprig and while annoyed by it at first, begins to acknowledge his skills and begins to respect him even after they fought off a swarm of hybeenas (a race of hyena/bee hybrids).[57] During the final fight with Andrias, Grime has his left arm sliced off by Darcy when protecting Sasha, but manages to survive.[36]

Following Anne saving Amphibia, Grime shares a tearful goodbye with Sasha before she returns to Earth permanently alongside Anne and Marcy. In the epilogue, Grime works with the others races of Amphibia as an explorer and delegate of peace.[37]

Marcy Wu[edit]

Marcy Wu is Sasha's and Anne's other human friend who found the Calamity Box first in a shop on Anne's birthday and was also teleported to Amphibia.[5] She serves as the brains of the trio, and is an expert but somewhat clumsy gamer. When she, Anne, and Sasha were transported to Amphibia, she found herself in Newtopia where she was accepted by the inhabitants and became King Andrias' chief advisor and ranger. After spending months with them, she was happily reunited with Anne and was introduced to the Plantars for the first time. It becomes apparent that while she is still clumsy, Marcy had become more adventurous and is capable of taking care of herself while also expanding her knowledge of Amphibian culture and anatomy.[19] However, she admits that she is jealous of Anne's ability to be social with every person she meets.[20] Marcy spends half her time trying to do research on the Calamity Box so that she, Anne and Sasha can return home.[3] Marcy and Anne come to accept that Sasha looked down on them despite her genuinely caring about them, but they still miss her and want to reunite with her to make things right.[22] Marcy ultimately has to stay in Newtopia while Anne and the Plantars return to Wartwood to retrieve the Calamity Box. However, Andrias approaches her with a proposition.[23] She arrives in Wartwood to aid Anne and the Plantars with recharging the first gem on the Calamity Box. During this time, she comes to realize that she has a problem with disacknowledging problems around her and willingly forfeits one of the challenges. This ends up being the test, and they successfully recharge the gem with Marcy's eyes noticeably losing their green hue.[26] Afterwards, she begins to live in the fwagon outside of the Plantars' house and begins to experience the same outcast treatment that Anne had when she first came to Wartwood, becoming even more disappointed when even Polly treated her poorly just because she follows others.[93] She grows close to Maddie Flour due to their interests in magic.[94] Marcy helps with completing the third temple where she happily reunites with Sasha.[28] In the season two finale, it is revealed that Marcy knew about the Calamity Box's power all along. After learning that her parents were planning to move, she feared being alone and manipulated Sasha and Anne to steal the box from the thrift store in the hopes that being transported to another world would keep them together forever. She helps her friends fight King Andrias when he reveals his sinister motivations. Marcy attempts to make amends by getting the box to create a portal home, but while trying to go through, she is stabbed through the torso by Andrias.[29]

Marcy's body is placed in a suspended animation tank and a special outfit by the Frog-Bots to help her recuperate so that King Andrias can make further use of her.[30] She is later rescued by Lady Olivia and General Yunan in an effort to overthrow King Andrias which did leave her loopy at first. However, she is immediately captured again and used as a vessel to contain an entity known as the Core as it uploads itself into the multi-eyed helmet that is compatible with the outfit that Marcy was placed in as Andrias has tried many times to get the Core to reconsider it's choice for a host.[95] In this new form, she is referred to as Darcy (Dark Marcy).[32][96] Marcy's personality is kept in a prison designed to feed into her desires, which is to live in a fantasy world and stay forever with her friends Sasha and Anne. However, she comes to realize the fakeness of this life and shatters the illusion. Sasha manages to free her and Marcy makes peace with the idea of moving now knowing her bond with her friends is stronger than that.[36]

Marcy is eventually imbued with the green gem power to help with defeating the Core, but has to give it up to Anne so that she can defeat it on her own. She has an emotional goodbye with Olivia, Yunan and a repentant Andrias. Ten years later, Marcy has become a webcomic author, though she is still clumsy and uncoordinated.[37]

King Andrias Leviathan[edit]

King Andrias Leviathan is a towering Chinese giant salamander who is the king of Amphibia. While appearing to be a jovial and kindly ruler, he seems to be plotting something involving Anne, Sasha, and Marcy.[19] He loves riddles as he has a habit of having Marcy go through a series of puzzles just so he can give her a simple message.[20] Upon first meeting, he is boisterous and happy-go-lucky, something that upsets his advisor Lady Olivia. He takes to many human customs and culture such as a fist bump and was glad to see Anne for the first time after Marcy told him all about her and proceeded to give the Plantars his royal credit card.[98] He continued to study the Calamity Box with Marcy for the majority of Anne and the Plantars' stay.[3] When they left Newtopia to go retrieve the Calamity Box, he enigmatically approached Marcy with a proposition.[23] It is later revealed that Anne, Marcy and the Plantars' mission involves undoing a prophecy so that Andrias and his mysterious master, a giant multi-eyed monster, can enact an unspecified revenge. He briefs his master of the progress after cutting off Yunan informing him about the civil unrests, the meeting of the toad lords and Grime still being at large.[26] In the season two finale, King Andrias is revealed to be evil and power-hungry. Many years ago, Newtopia was a thriving city, but following the Calamity Box's disappearance, it had lost its glory. He wanted the box back not for knowledge, but for conquering other worlds. He battles Anne and her friends before witnessing her using the blue gem powers to fight back. As Anne and the Plantars escape through a portal back to Los Angeles, Andrias stabs Marcy through the torso as he quotes to them "Now look what you made me do!"[29]

In season three, King Andrias keeps Marcy alive in a suspension tank and now plots to kill Anne who is the only one capable of derailing his plans. He starts by sending one of his Frog-Bots called Cloak-Bot to do the job and obtain the latest copy of a novel series that Marcy got him hooked on.[30] Displeased that Cloak-Bot hasn't killed Anne yet and that it only got Book 3 of the novel series when Book 2 was sold out, King Andrias activates the Cloak-Bot's timer giving it the rest of the day to kill Anne before its self-destruct sequence is initiated.[31] Back in Newtopia, Andrias reveals his multi-eyed master known as the Core whom he communicates with via his crown. After Olivia and Yunan free Marcy, Andrias intercepts them and revealed that he and the Core were watching them. He had used the DNA of the Moss Men due to their healing properties and the studies on the Shadowfish enabled the ancients to cheat death enough to be preserved in the Core. Under its command, Andrias uses Marcy as a vessel to contain the Core within her, despite that he genuinely likes the human girl and even showing some sort of remorse for his actions as he had asked the Core to reconsider its choice for a host.[95] In "Froggy Little Christmas", he has managed to grow his army to an incredible size and sent a remote-controlled drone to make up for the Cloak-Bot's failure. After its destruction, Darcy called him "pathetic" and assures that his army will invade Earth to destroy his enemies once and for all.[32] In "The Core & The King", Andrias is revealed to have had two friends named Barrel, a toad, and Leif, a frog, the latter of whom he was implied to have been in love with. When Leif warned him about a possible apocalyptic future involving the Calamity Box, Andrias' father, Aldrich, convinces him that she is a traitor and she escapes; convincing him that he was betrayed and damaging his friendship with Barrel.[96] Andrias and Darcy soon launch their invasion of Earth during which, Sprig shows him a letter written by Leif. The truth of her feeling for him weakens his resolve to fight and convinces him to allow Anne to defeat him in battle; revealing that he had partially turned himself into a cyborg to prolong his life. Andrias' body was brought back to Amphibia.[36]

Andrias ultimately overcomes his father's influence by crushing his crown and helps Anne, Sasha and Marcy with defeating the Core by sending his Frogbots to aid them. He has an emotional goodbye with Marcy; repentant for his actions. In the epilogue, Andrias's eyesight and body have begun to deteriorate, having chosen not to continue maintaining his cyborg body, and he has taken up gardening with help from a gardening Frogbot.[37]

The Core[edit]

The Core is an evil, monstrous, mechanical multi-eyed entity that King Andrias serves. It is an artificial intelligence composed of the collective preserved memories of Amphibia's greatest minds which includes past scholars and rulers of Amphibia including King Andrias's father King Aldrich. When Marcy was revived, Andrias uses her to be the host for the Core after failing to get it to reconsider its choice for a host as it uploads itself into the armor she was placed in and a multi-eyed helmet was placed on Marcy's head.[95]

In this new form, they are referred to as Darcy (short for Dark Marcy). It appears again in "Froggy Little Christmas", mocking Andrias' efforts to destroy Anne, calling him "pathetic", but the latter assures it that his army is going to invade Earth and destroy his enemies once and for all.[32] The Core begins to mimic some of Marcy's personality quirks and interests. Additionally, it is revealed to be a complex computer that contains the memories of Andrias' ancestors including his father King Aldrich as it starts to talk in his voice.[96] It is later revealed that despite its extensive knowledge like anticipating the strategy from the film "War of the Warlocks", Darcy still does not know much about the Calamity Box; a fact that Anne uses to spare her life. By the end of "The Beginning of the End", Darcy launches its invasion of Earth.[35] Darcy goes face to face with Sasha and Grime; resulting in them slicing Grime's arm off and making a large cut in Sasha's back. Despite her taunts, Sasha kills Darcy by slicing their neural link and frees Marcy. However, the helmet sprouts legs and flees.[36] It attaches itself to the moon (the newts having experimented on it in the past) and attempts to crash into the planet as it refuses to be defeated. The Core is eventually destroyed by Anne after she absorbs the power of all three gems.[37]
