Role in Amphibia

Before

Anne was best friends with two girls named Sasha and Marcy. Sasha tended to push Anne around through peer pressure, while Marcy was so clumsy that Anne had to look out for her. At some point, she and her friends started a band. At Sasha's behest, Anne abandoned her own birthday party set up by her family to go and steal a mysterious music box that Marcy discovered at a thrift store with her friends, although she and Sasha were unaware that Marcy was planning to run away because her dad got a new job out of state along with knowing something about the box. The box transported, Anne to the world of Amphibia where she spent the first couple of weeks fending for herself in the wild.

Season One

Upon meeting the native Amphibians, Anne was taken aback by their way of living. Only when she started living with the Plantars did she begin to open up and learn more about herself. It did not take long to form a bond with each of the Planters; Sprig became a true friend to the human girl, Polly saw Anne as something of role model and Hop Pop gave her many important life lessons. Anne's bond with the Planter family became so strong that they consider each other family and the more adventures they went on the more that bond showed. Anne even discovered parts of herself that she was not aware of such as courage, integrity, humility, loyalty, persistence and compassion. Her relationship with Sasha also begins to unravel as it becomes apparent that much of her decisions were more the result of being pressured and pushed around by her. Her perception of friendship is depicted in "Best Fronds" when she states, "If a friend likes a pencil case, you get it for them. If your friend likes your new shoes, you give them to her. And if your friend wants you to steal a crazy music box from a thrift store, even if you really don't want to, you do it, okay?" Through her constant interaction with Sprig, a somewhat simple-minded child, Anne is able to look at friendship in a whole new way. She begins to desire a more compassionate relationship with those close to her. In "Reunion", she finally sees through Sasha's manipulative tactics thanks to Sprig, who sees Anne for who she is: a kind and considerate person who is willing to protect her friends. After Anne defeats Sasha in a duel, Toad Tower starts to collapse, forcing Captain Grime to retreat with an unconscious Sasha. After getting back to Wartwood, the Plantars apologize that Anne lost Sasha as a friend, but Anne tells them it is okay because she considers them her family and that as long as they stay together, they'll get through anything.

Season Two

Anne and the Plantars set off on a journey to Newtopia to find Anne's way home; before leaving, Anne's eyes began glowing during a fight with a giant mutant vegetable monster. During their journey, they come across an abandoned factory and escape before it collapses; but unbeknownst to them, the factory created a frog-like robot just before its destruction; the robot then proceeds to follow Anne and the Plantars. Upon arriving at Newtopia Anne is reunited with Marcy, her other human friend. During a quest to drive away a colony of giant bloodthirsty Barbari-Ants, Anne still thinks Marcy needs protection but learns Marcy can take care of herself now (although Marcy is still a little clumsy). After a successful mission, Anne tells Marcy about her fight with Sasha and they both promise that not only will they work together to get back with Sasha, but find a proper way to get home. Anne and the Plantars meet King Andrias; while he appears to be a jovial and kindly ruler, he was in actuality plotting something involving the human girls. During one of their adventures in Newtopia, Anne and Sprig's bond becomes even stronger after learning about each other's moms. Anne misses her mom so much she would do anything to even hear her "tone-deaf" singing; she even goes to great lengths to get a gift for her for when she eventually returns to earth and is reunited with her mother. Sprig reveals that his mother passed away when he and Polly were really young, and he doesn't even remember her; as Sprig wonders if you can miss someone without knowing them, Anne gives him a big hug as they both cry. During their sleepover Anne, Sprig, Polly and Marcy venture down to the castle's basement which is strictly off limits, where they encounter some strange things: a flooded tomb full of strange creatures, two halls of mirrors, a chamber with plants that don't need sunlight to grow and a torn portrait of King Andrias with an unknown frog and toad. The next morning they learn from King Andrias that the music box that transported Anne, Sasha, and Marcy to Amphibia once belonged to his ancestors who used to travel to other worlds. To get the box working again, each of the box's gems need to be recharged at three different temples. When they return to Wartwood Anne learns that Hop Pop lied to her about hiding the music box when it went missing, she was distraught but put her anger aside to work with Hop Pop in order to save Sprig and Polly and retrieve the box. After she forgave Hop Pop, he showed Anne an old book that has been in the Planter Family for ages, and from it, she learned the music box was called the Calamity Box. Things were still awkward between Anne and Hop Pop, but during their mission at the first temple they agreed to work things out together. With her friend now staying with her at the Planter Farm, Anne tires to help Marcy get accepted by the amphibians of Wartwood; she was against Marcy go with Mayor Toadstool's plan to turn the town into a tourist attraction and had to help her save everyone when everything began to sink in the swamp. In the end, the Wartwood citizens, while still mad, did accept Marcy's apology and let her know that they're slowly starting to like her. Anne then watches as an optimistic Marcy beginning to fix the town without going overboard. The Robot that had been following them and finally caught up and was given the name Frobo by Polly. The Planters and the human girls decide to take in the mysterious mechanical being. During their journey to the second temple, Anne encountered Valeriana who she previously met at the Bizarre Bazaar. Valeriana reveled that she was part of an ancient order that research the Calamity Box. She put Anne though a series of trials and Anne finally lived up to her pervious selfish actions. After seeing Anne truly learned from her past mistakes and takes responsibility; Valeriana declares that she passed the test. However, Anne left before the gem was fully charged to go help Marcy and the Planters. Anne started wearing armor, but just the chest plate, because she is finally comfortable about who she has become and still wants to see herself in the mirror. At the third and final temple Sasha appeared and saved Anne, the Planters and Marcy then apologized for her misdeeds. Anne was skeptical but allowed her to help with completing their quest. It was only when fighting a giant stone toad guardian in a chamber with intense gravity did Anne put faith in her. After Sasha defeated the guardian and the third stone was recharged, Anne decided to start things all over with Sasha. However, little did Anne know that Sasha was merely deceiving her to get into Newtopia as part of Grime's Invasion plan. Anne, Marcy and the Plantars invite Sasha and Grime over for dinner to bury the hatchet. While things seem nice at first, everyone becomes awkward with one another when they bring up past conflicts. Unable to contain herself, Sasha lashes out at Anne and Marcy for trying to change her. A cake Grime brought turns into a deadly challenge that forces the girls to save everyone. After the battle is over, Anne tells her maybe she doesn't want her to change as much she wants Sasha to see that she has changed. Sasha agrees that Anne is no longer the shy girl who she needed to protect back on earth and the two reconcile, and then they join everybody in feasting on chocolate covered hornets. Wartwood has been on edge because Sasha and Grime have returned since the Toad Tower incident. So Mayor Toadstool has consulted the wheel of fun to come up with an activity to help relieve some tension, and the result was a Battle of the Bands. Immediately, Anne, Marcy, and Sasha want to reunite their former garage band, Sasha and the Sharps. They had some disagreements, but eventually Sasha came around and put on an amazing performance. After the contest (where Grime won thanks to his 3-hour harp solo) Anne suggests taking a group photo before she, Marcy, and Sasha leave for home, to which everyone in Wartwood joins in. The three human girls, the Plantars, Grime and Frobo all arrive at Newtopia with the music box. Sprig is sadden that the adventure is over, but Anne reminds them as long as they have the music box they can see each other any time they wanted. As they entered the throne room Andrias greets them and is delighted they were successful in their mission, but as just as Anne is about to hand the box over to Andrias, it is snatched away by Sasha and Grime who reveal their plan to take over Newtopia as they imprisoned the king and signaled the hidden toad soldiers. Anne is furious that she has been betrayed by Sasha again and refuses to join her. After Sasha fails to figure out how to use the box to send Anne back to earth, she orders Anne, Marcy, The Planters, Frobo and Lady Olivia to be sent to the dungeon. While being escorted down the hall, they are rescued by General Yunan and they regroup at Sal's old sandwich shop (That was featured in "Little Frogtown"). When Marcy informed them that the rest of the Toad army would reach the city in less than an hour, the group fell into despair, but Anne motivates them to fight back and comes up with a plan. Hop Pop, Marcy and Olivia would break out Andrias of the dungeon while Polly, Yunan and Frobo engage in a frontal assault on the toads in the city. Meanwhile, Anne herself and Sprig would close the gate to prevent the toad army from entering. Just as they close the gate Sasha arrives to warn her about the dark secret she had learned about King Andrias, but Anne ignored her and they began to fight. Anne manages to defeat Sasha by pulling her own cape over her face, while Sprig defeats Grime by hitting him with Barrel's Warhammer. When Anne gave Andrias the box he told everyone present about a time when he was betrayed by his friends, that the music box was stolen from him and no one remembers what Amphibia was like 1,000 years ago, but now that he got the box back he will use his power to restore Newtopia to glory. Andrias then the revealed that his ancestors were not explorers like he previously said, but instead they were "glorious" conquerors as he put the music box on a pedestal to power up his castle; enabling it to fly, then he reactivated ancient factories all over Amphibia that created a frog-bot army that arrived at the castle in mere seconds. Andrias then inform everyone to their horror that he was planning on following in his ancestors' footsteps by traveling to other worlds and conquering them, starting with earth. When Anne and Sasha told the king they would stop him, he decides a demonstration of his power was in order and used his castle's giant laser cannon to destroy a toad tower. Marcy spoke saying this was not part of the plan he told her, only for the giant newt to admit he had been deceiving her all this time. When Anne and Sasha asked what they were talking about, Marcy said that Andrias promised to take them to other worlds so they could have more adventures forever; when Anne asked why, the mad king informed everyone that Marcy got them stranded in Amphibia on purpose, leaving both Anne and Sasha in disbelief. Marcy admitted she knew about the power of the Calamity Box beforehand and explained that her father got a new job out of state and her family were moving; she wanted to use the box to take the 3 of them to a world to where they would always be together. Anne is devastated by this revelation because she wonders how Marcy could do such a thing, because of how much she missed her family and her life back on earth. Marcy then tried to justify her actions by reminding them of the fun adventure they had, how Anne and Sasha have grown as people in Amphibia and Anne's friendship with Sprig were all because of her, only for Anne to back away in distress, leaving Marcy on her knees crying and saying she just didn't want to be alone. Anne looks around and realizes that while she and her 2 human friends have made a lot of mistakes, what Andrias Leviathan was doing was evil and vows to stop him, rallying her friends together to face the king and his new mechanical army; Sasha decides to redeem herself but for real this time and Marcy pulls herself together as both join the fight, Hop Pop and Grime team up to destroy some of the bots, Yunan protects Olivia after both defected from Andrias, Sprig fends of some bots with his slingshot and Frobo is destroyed while protecting Polly. Just as Polly (who just got her legs) gets the music box back, Andrias grabs Sprig and threatens to drop him from the castle. After the group complies with his demand, Anne begs him to release Sprig, but Andrias drops him anyway. The grief caused by this act awakens the power of the blue gemstone within, and she furiously fights Andrias while everyone is awestruck at her extraordinary power as she punches Leviathan so hard that she knocks his crown off his head, easily dodge all of her enemies' attacks, destroys the remaining frog-bots, breaks through Andrias' energy shield and knocking the wind out of the king. After Anne powers down, Sprig who was rescued by Marcy runs up to her, and she is overjoyed he is alive as her surrogate frog family embrace. Realizing that she can't fully control her power, Andrias manages to pick himself up a decides he can't let Anne live, but Marcy manages to use the Calamity Box to open a portal to earth while Sasha and Grime keeps the king busy. Anne and the Plantars jump through, along with Frobo's head, but when Anne beckons Marcy to come through, Andrias stabs her through the chest with his laser sword. Marcy apologizes for her actions just before collapsing from her injuries, and the portal closes. When they come to Earth, the Planters ask where they are, and Anne solemnly tells them that she is finally home.

Season Three

Anne and the Plantars walk through the human girl's neighborhood as the frogs ask what their next move is. Anne affirms her belief that Marcy is alive and vows to find away back to Amphibia to help her and Sasha. They arrive at Anne's house as she dumbfounded that she is about to see her parents again after all this time. She tells the Planters to hide until she gives the signal and decides it not tell her parents yet about King Andrias, how she was betrayed by both Sasha & Marcy and especially keep quiet about her "Blue Powers". Anne knocks on the door as Anne's mother opens it and as the two see each other, her mother tearfully embraces her daughter. Just then, Anne's father sees them and joins in the hug. As Anne share an emotional reunion with both of her parents and her cat Domino, Hop Pop mistook a bird squawk for Anne's signal and reveals himself, Polly reprimands him for it and Sprig introduces himself. As Anne's parents are left in shock at the sight of the 3 talking frogs, Anne slaps her forehead. Anne puts together a presentation explaining what she has been doing all this time (while leaving out the events of "True Colors" to prevent more panic). As her parents process everything their daughter said, Anne asks if the Frog family can stay; they are reluctant and Mrs. Boonchuy suggest calling the authorities, But Anne is convinced that the government would do horrible experiments on talking frogs and was against it. Seeing how much the Plantars meant to Anne, the Boonchuys agrees to let them stay but on lock down. The Boonchuys continue to pamper Anne, and she has finally had enough. She demands that she be given space; When Mrs. Boonchuy told them she was leaving to the market, Anne asks to come along and promises to disguise the Planters and keep a low profile. After Hop Pop and Mr. Boonchuy point out that Anne is a lot more mature than she used to be, Mrs. Boonchuy finally agrees. Anne disguises the Plantars as they head to market. Anne's parents are actually amazed at how responsible their daughter has become and actually agrees to let Anne take the frogs to try the noodles. As the Planters are loving the noodles, Sprig spots a silver Frobot with cloaking tech that was sent by King Andrias to hunt down Anne and kill her because she's the only one left to stop him. The Cloak-Bot grabs Anne and starts squeezing and choking her, but the Sprig manages to distract it, freeing her from its clutches. Not wanting to alert her parents, Anne and the Plantars pretend like nothing is wrong. Anne turns on loud music to hide any noise they make when fighting. Anne and the Plantars fight the Frog-Bot and realize that it too is trying to remain discreet; with its camouflage tech, incredible strength, and excellent reflexes, the robot proves to be a formidable opponent, yet Anne and her companions manage to trick it into running into a freezer. The Plantars freeze due to being cold-blooded and Anne is backed into a corner. After the frozen Planters fall over and distract it, the drone attempts to attack them. Enraged by this, Anne finally unleashes her blue gem power and punches the Silver Frog-Bot so hard it severely damages the machine, and it flees to safety. Upon escaping the freezer, Anne collapses and the Plantars use a pungent durian to wake her. The Boonchuys, none the wiser, commend Anne for being responsible and mature as she and the Plantars remain quiet about the incident. Anne decides that she does not want to use her powers unless she needs to, as it severely weakens her, plus something about using them feels off. Elsewhere, the Cloak-Bot begins repairing and upgrading itself at a tower to double its efforts. Anne and the Plantars go outside to check the mail. However, things quickly get out of hand when Polly almost gets into a fight with other children, Sprig almost falls into a wood chipper, and Hop Hop almost falls for a scam. She decides to take them to the Mall to teach them how to not get distracted or pulled in by something on Earth. It was disastrous, but they managed to escape from the chaos. Anne decides to take things slowly when teaching the frogs about her world from now on. When Anne and the Planters went to a museum, the found a vase with a picture of a frog and the Calamity Box; finding their first real clue, they are once again attacked Andrias' Frog-Bot Assassin. After driving it away yet again, they decided to enlist the help of their new friend Dr. Jan, who saw them fighting the robot, and the frogs without their disguises. After earning their trust, Dr. Jan promises to do some research. Dr. Jan arrived at the the the Thai Temple after Anne and her friends fought off some killer robotic dragonflies sent by he Cloak-Bot and revealed the hidden message on the vase "Seek the Mother of Olms she will guide you to your destiny", but nobody knew what that meant. At the Boonchuy residence, Anne is amazing everyone by doing the laundry, taking out the trash, washing the dishes and using a coaster all at breakneck speed. After her parents tell her how proud of them they are of her new responsible behavior, Anne drags Sprig into the kitchen to tell him she can't keep the secret about Andrias, Cloak-bit or the invasion anymore and decides to tell her parents, just as the Cloak-Bot Attacks them. As the robot chase them down the highway, Anne gets a little upset with Hop-Pop when he inadvertently tells the Boonchuys that this was not the first time the robots has been after them. After briefly evading Cloak-Bot, the families made their way to a junkyard where Mrs. Boonchuy explodes into anger for Anne keeping secrets, while she rebuffs her by saying she lied because she wanted to keep her loved ones safe, and she was on a lot of pressure from her parents about becoming the daughter she and her husband wanted her to be, which stunned them. Just as the Cloak-Bot catches up to them, Anne asks her mom to use her artistic skills to create a bunch of fake hers out of junkyard to confuse and distract the Cloak-Bot long enough for everyone to severally damage it. As a last ditch effort, the Cloak-Bot decided to kill everyone with its Self-Deduct sequence, but Anne uses her powers to knock into orbit before it explodes, which astonishes her parents. After powering down, Anne says she has so much to tell her parents before she passes out. As they drive home, Anne is unconscious as her mother, who now understands the kind of pressure she's been putting on her, comforts her as she tells the frogs that she now knows she was just trying to keep them all safe and promises that the Boonchuy family will help the Planter family however they can. Anne was worried of involving her parents in more adventures, but after they help her and the Plantars escape the clutches of Mr. X she apologizes for misjudging them. Anne is warned by Dr. Jan about meeting with strange scientists, but the homesick Plantars guilt her into going to see Dr. Frakes. Frakes reveals that she has discovered alternate dimensions and built a machine that could create portals to them, but they cannot find Amphibia through it. When Frakes discovers that the Plantars are frogs, she kidnaps them. Anne is aided by Frakes' assistant Terri and they rescue them. Afterwards, the Plantars apologize for guilting Anne all the time into doing things for them. Having been fired by Frakes, Terri decides to help them with building a new portal. The Boonchuys prepare for Christmas while the Plantars are trying to wrap their heads around it. Mrs. Boonchuy turns down her dream of entering a float into the annual Christmas parade to protect the Plantars, but Anne and the Plantars recruit the IT Gals and Dr. Jan to help make one in private. Meanwhile, Andrias has learned Anne is still alive and the Cloak-Bot has failed, so he sends a remote control moth drone to Earth to find and kill her himself. Mrs. Boonchuy is overjoyed at seeing the float and the Boonchuys, Plantars and IT Gals enter the parade. Andrias finally finds Anne and takes over a Santa Claus float to kill her, but they manage to defeat it. Despite everything, everyone is happy with how things turned out. Andrias is shown to have a large army to make use of. Later, Anne writes an anonymous letter to the Wus and Waybrights promising to bring their daughters back home. Terri and Dr. Jan almost get the portal back to Amphibia up and running, but do not have enough power to make it big enough. The Boonchuys and Plantars go shopping for supplies where Anne reveals to Sprig that she is unsure if she can leave her parents again. Mr. X and the FBI arrive and kidnap the Plantars; forcing the Boonchuys gather all the friends the Planters made during their time on earth and tell them the truth about them being talking frogs from another world and ask them to help rescue them from the FBI HQ and they unanimously agree. The group infiltrate the base and nearly succeed but gets captured thanks to Mr. X using the same frog decoys the Boonchuys used on him. Anne feels helpless after Mr. X points out she is just a child, until her parents tell her that she has grown and achieved much during this time and have faith in her and they all embrace each other. The group manage to escape after Dr. Jan and Terri steal the base's power generator and Anne tracks down the Planters and free them from the lab. The rescue is successful, but the portal is still does not big enough and Mr. X has them cornered. Anne unleashes her energy which is enough to get the portal open large enough to pass through and she and the Plantars escape. As the Boonchuys confront Mr. X, Anne and the Plantars return to a devastated Amphibia. Anne and the Plantars discover that Wartwood has become the home base for the resistance with Sasha leading them. However, Sasha decides to hand command over to Anne, despite her reluctance. Anne turns out to be terrible at leading, especially when they have to take down one of King Andrias' factories. Sasha finally admits that she is afraid of ruining their friendship like she did last time. Anne puts herself in harm's way so that Sasha can regain her confidence and rescue everyone from a giant snake. Anne hands command back over to Sasha and the girls agree to co-lead resistance. As the group is heading back to base, Anne discovers that she has lost one of her shoes again when she arrived to Amphibia, much to her annoyance. At the Resistance Underground Base, Sasha and Anne give a group of rebels (Mrs. Croaker, One-Eyed Wally, Maddie, Loggle and Toadie) their mission; get their stolen weapons back from a marauder’s camp. With everyone getting briefed, Toadie decides to do what he always does and what’s in his comfort zone and stay as the lookout, despite encouragement from other members of the squad that he is capable of so much more. Everyone are captured by the marauders, while the humans get away with ease. Anne is ready to go back and save her friends, but Sasha advises against it, knowing they can be captured as well. Sasha knows the strength of this team and suggests they just wait a bit, they’ll be able to get out of the situation that they’re in, suggesting that they train in the meantime. The Frogs were captured, and to their surprise, the leader of the Marauders turns out to be Barry who plans to sell the rebels to Andrias as he pays a hefty price for them and doesn’t even take Crocker serious. After a while, Anne still feels all hope is lost and is ready to help her friends, fully believing Sasha sees them as only soldiers that are disposable. Finally, it comes to a head and the subtle hinting at this philosophy is fully exposed.Meanwhile, back at the camp, Toady has a revelation that he is in fact stronger than he thinks, and takes over the group and comes up with a plan to escape. Everyone has an assignment and the group makes their getaway. Outside the camp, Anne and Sasha are full blown fighting now in lieu of training, and Sasha insists that she knows what’s going on. In the distance, there is an explosion with Sasha all but saying “See I told you” and running towards the camp to aid with their getaway. While the team is making their way home, Sasha reminds Anne of something that Anne once told her; that sometimes you have to stop and remember to have faith in the people around you. Using the information they gathered on Earth, Anne Sasha and the Plantars go looking for the Mother of Olms and find Lysil and Angwin; demanding that they take them to her. Lysil and Angwin turn out to be banned from Proteus, the city of olms, who are in denial of the tremors being from Andrias' drilling machines and get kicked out. The heroes manage to take down the drills, but when Parisia, the overseer of the city, refuses to acknowledge this, Sasha snaps back at her. Impressed with her determination, Parisia allows Lysil and Angwin into the city again and gives them access to the Mother of Olms. As they enter the inner sanctum Anne and Sasha celebrate with a fist bump before meeting Mother Olm. Anne, Sasha and the Plantars are taken into Mother Olm’s chamber. There, they finally encounter the thousands-year old mystic to ask her about the prophecy of the music box. Too bad Mother Olm, voiced by guest star Whoopi Goldberg, doesn’t remember it. Something that happens when you get old, I guess. Hop Pop seems to be facing the same dilemma, realizing his joints aren’t what they once were, and feels like he is a growing hindrance as opposed to being helpful. When Mother Olm suggests that the group go into her brain to spread some “brain cream” along it to help stir her memory, Hop Pop stays behind. Mother Olm’s usual doctor, Dr. Yohan, who spread the cream has gone missing, and she desperately needs it to stop the crazy migraines she is having and might be able to retrieve the prophecy she can’t seem to remember. The gang ventures into Mother Olm’s gigantic body, which Sasha claims is the worst mission ever, and Hop Pop stays behind with Mother Olm for a cup of tea. The cup being so large that Hop Pop is actually able to soak in the tea like a hot tub. Together, he and Mother Olm discuss that yeah, they’re old, but over the course of their lives they still have plenty of worth thanks to their years of gathering wisdom. Inside Mother Olm, after a few disgusting encounters with ear wax, the group finally makes it to brain. Unfortunately for Sprig, they discover the body of missing Dr. Yohan, but he is long gone. Together, they begin spreading the cream when Polly hears a weird flapping noise. Anne shines her light and discovers a swarm of batsquitos who have now awaken (thanks to the light) and begin to feed, also explaining Mother Olm’s migraines. The gang falls into Mother Olm’s nose and Hop Pop can hear them screaming for help. Using the wisdom that he has gained throughout his life vegetable farming, he calculates what’s growing in Mother Olm’s chamber and quickly concocts a smell filled with allergens that can get mother Olm to sneeze out the gang. Now that the Batsquito colony was out of her brain the migraines were finally gone, but even with that and the cream applied she still can't remember. Turns out the brain cream was several decades expired. Again, Hop Pop says that with his advanced age if he needs to remember something he’ll usually write it down. Mother Olm realizes she must have thought the same and looks up at the most likely place she would have written such a thing. The ceiling. Sure enough, there it is.“Three stars burning bright come from beyond to expel the night. Should they fight or embrace the fall? Their choice will determine the fate of all.” Sasha asking if her, Anne, and Marcy are the three stars. Mother Olm asks if they burn bright with the power of the stones, which we know that Anne does, though she can’t control it. This implies that the other two, Sasha and Marcy, will eventually get their “cool anime powers” too, but since King Andrias has stolen the music box, he has stolen their powers, but since Anne still has some of her powers, she can restore the power to her friends. The olms believe the stones are meant for a greater purpose should be left alone, but others believe the stones should be used for conquest, and their arrogance and greed has created something unnatural that “does not sleep and will not die.” She also says that the olms believe that three of them were summoned to help save the residents of Amphibia from what they've become, the worst version of themselves. Now that the human girls know they need to get to music box back from Andrias now more than ever they decide that Wartwood Resistance should find a lot more recruits so Sasha decide they should start by by joining forces with the Toad Army lead by Grime's sister Captain Beatrix. She was reluctant at first but they manage to convince her when Spig defeated her in a duel. With that the resistance gained numerous mighty warriors to join their ranks. Thanks to Hop Pop, a former enemy Apothecary Gary was persuaded to join the resistance as well. Anne and Sprig are reunited with Tritonio who leads a band of neutral thieves who steal from Andrias, but are unaligned from the rebellion. Anne convinces him to team up with her and Sprig for a mission, but when his team is captured, he bails on them, due to his harsh upbringing. Words of encouragement leads him to change his mind and he rescues his thieves and joins the rebellion. Back at base, the group find a hidden room that contains a red envelope with no writing. While disappointed, Sprig takes extra precaution and pockets the letter before leaving. Anne reunites with Domino II who has had "kittens". When Domino II is captured by drones to help power a battery, Anne and Sprig go and rescue her while the rest of Wartwood reluctantly look after the kittens, though they end up falling in love with them anyway. Anne discovers that Domino II remembers her, but when the other Kill-a-moths try to eat Sprig, Anne learns that Domino II is the Alpha Moth and she alerts the other moths to leave them alone. Anne and Sprig liberate the moths and they all fly back to Wartwood where Sasha dubs them their new flying artillery. The next day, the Resistance got word out that Andrias plans to invade the Earth in a few days and they must get ready to stop Andrias and foiled his invasion. However, the Toads, Frogs, and Newts refused to work together, she and Sasha tried everything, but nothing work. Then when all three Amphibians decided to fight, Anne tapped into her Calamity Powers to break up the fight and told them that if they are to work together, they must put aside their differencs on their own. Anne then gets exhausted as the three Amphibians have finally put aside their difference and learn to work together to save Amphibia and stop Andrias. Mother Olms shows up and informs her and the Resistance that Andrias is gone to invade Earth tonight and decide to begin their attack on Andrias and his forces now. Using a strategy from Marcy's favorite film War of the Warlocks, Anne along with Sasha, the Plantars, and Grime will sneak onboard the Newtopia Castle to get the Calamity Box and save Marcy while the Resistance battles Andrias' forces. As they are about to begin their assault, Sasha tells Anne that she is reluctant to forgive Marcy, given that she was the reason that they end up in Amphibia in the first place. Anne however points to Sasha that she herself and Sasha are to blame for all this, because they haven't been very good friends to Marcy, nor have they show any interest in her hobbies or take her personal issues for granted. The Resistance then leads their attack on Andrias' forces while Anne, Sasha, the Plantars, and Grime board the fortress. Once onboard, Sasha is still reluctant to forgive Marcy, but Anne reminds her how she was forgiven by her actions and that forgiveness takes times, and that if she can be forgiven then they should give Marcy a chance, which Sasha finally acknowledges. As they make their way through the castle, they were confronted by General Yunan and Lady Olivia now wearing Mind controlled Collars. Sasha and Anne battle the duo, then defeated them by using a dance move and freed them by destroying the collars. Suddenly, when they walk into the room, they see the calamity Box only to discover it was a projection and have walk into a trap by The Core, a collection of Amphibia's greatest minds and have taken control of Marcy's body and keeping her prisoner in her own mind and going by the named Darcy. Anne and Sasha demanded to Darcy to released Marcy, but Darcy mocks them for not being good friends to Marcy though Anne knows Dracy is just mocking them. As Darcy and Andrias announced their victory and prepared their invasion on Earth, Anne discovers that both Darcy and Andrias are just as clueless about the gems as they are. As Darcy is about to kill her, Anne warns them that if they kill her now, then the remaining gems' powers will probably cease to exist. Darcy decides to spare Anne for now as the invasion of Earth began. Anne was later held in a dungeon along with the Plantars, Grime, Yunan, Domino 2, Joe Sparrow, and Olivia though Anne was gonna to use to her powers to break free, but was told to save up her energy as she needed to use her powers later on to save Earth. Luckily, thanks to one of Frobo's new upgrades, they were able to escape and head down to fight some of the Frobots. Anne was reunited with her parents who are train agents and working for Mr. X, they headed to Anne's school to work on a plan to stop the Invasion. While Sasha, Grime, Yunan, and Olivia boarded the fortress in order to shut down the force field and free Marcy from the Core's control, Anne along with the Plantars, her parents, Mr. X, and Jenny battle the ground forces. During the battle, they were face to face with the exact same Herons who attack Wartwood and ate Sprig and Polly's parents who were too traumatized to fight, but later overcome it by saving Anne's parents. When Andrias boradcasted himself, he demanded Anne to fight him and will call off the invasion. Before going to face Andrias, Anne looked at an essay that she didn't write and always ask who she was, Anne admits that before she met the Plantars, she always hated herself because she let people walk on her and always did things did easy. Now knowing who she was, Anne flew to go face Andrias, but Andrias battled Anne in a mech-suit that proved to be more of a match for her. Luckily, Mr. X play one of Anne's favorite songs and everyone cheered for her as Anne began to get the upper hand on him, but Anne's powers timed out. Just as Andrias is about to finish off Anne, Sprig shows with a letter from Leif, the Plantars' distant ancestor, Sprig read it out loud and revealed that Leif lived a new life and started a family and she never forgotten Andrias and Barrel and begged him not to close himself from others. Andrias then broke down and believed he was beyond saving until Darcy tried to force him to fight Anne, who was using the distraction to recharge her powers. Once she was recharged, Anne then powered up and defeated Andrias, everyone including the Plantars, Jenny, Mr. X, her parents, Gabby, Maggie, Dr. Jan, Terri, Principal Murphy, Ally, Jesse, Molly Jo and Humphrey cheer for her. As Sprig congratulated her on her victory, Anne and Sprig were surprised to discover Andrias to be a cyborg to prolong his life who then told Anne to save Marcy. As Anne, the Plantars, and Frobo boarded the castle after Sasha shut down the force field, she spotted Marcy unconscious in Sasha's arms after freeing her from the Core's control and ran to her. As she and Sasha hold her, their tears landed on her and awoken her much to their surprise. After Marcy confessed that she was scared that they were gone to stop being being friends if she moved, Anne sympathetic telling her that things changed and cannot be stop, but nothing can break their friendship not time or distance. Anne, Sasha, and Marcy are relieved that stop Andrias and the Core and will use videos and evidence for their future jobs. With the invasion foiled, Anne, Sasha, Marcy, and the Plantars pick up Andrias and brought him onboard the castle and were preparing to go back to Amphibia to see how things are going. Anne inform her parents about it while she was making one last video call. Anne, Sasha, Marcy, the Plantars, Grime, Frobo, Yunan, and Olivia return to Amphiba with the castle and Andrias where they announce their victory. Unaware to Anne and the group, the Core has survived in Darcy's helmet and escaped to Amphibia's blood Moon. Anne and Sprig then talk and wonder if things will changed between them, but Anne doesn't know, but will face it together. Then, Sprig began to noticed that Amphibia's blood moon is coming down, much to everyone's surprised and Anne wonders what's going on. 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.

Creartion

Early concept art by James Turner depicted Anne with a lighter skin tone, blue hair, and casual wear from the start.

In the show's pilot, Amphibiland, Anne was originally going to sport both of her shoes (the other one being broken) when being transported to Amphibia.

Later concept art by Joe Sparrow showed that Anne was going to have a much rougher hairstyle and have a more boring personality on Earth. She was also shown to be wearing many styles of clothing, including a SJMS jacket and longer shirt.

Anne's original character was originally envisioned as being a boring person on Earth, before being reinvented by the crew.

Anne's last name, Boonchuy (Thai: บุญช่วย), roughly translates to "one who encourages or performs good deeds" in the Thai language. This fits her character as she always attempts to help the people of Wartwood and improve herself. Her middle name, Savisa, is named after Matt Braly's cousin, Savisa Bhumiratana.

According to Matt Braly, he wanted Anne to have a similar arc to Gravity Falls character Pacifica Northwest, as he felt that "to have this character change so drastically was so rewarding, and that's why [he] knew [he] wanted [his] own show to have some of that element as well". Anne, around with her best friends, Sasha and Marcy, were originally fifteen-years-old because they wanted the series to have a high school-like feel, but were aged down to thirteen in order to appeal to the series' target demographic; due to this, the tiro often realizes actions more akin to high school students, such as driving and having part-time jobs. Matt Braly revealed on an AMA that Anne's design was slightly influenced by Pepper Ann, as Braly was a fan of the series.

Anne marks the first Thai-American lead in a animated show. Braly, who is also Thai-American, chose to make her Thai-American because he wanted more Thai characters in television series. According to Braly, Anne was loosely inspired by his grandmother when she was young. He described Anne being Thai-American as "a number one priority", as he wanted Thai-American kids to see themselves reflected on television. Season 3, which is set on Earth, further delves into Anne's Thai heritage, including an episode set at a Wat Thai temple in Los Angeles. Braly described the temple's representation in the episode as "pretty accurate", as it is important for him to represent Thai culture accurately.

On March 27, 2019, it was revealed that Brenda Song would star in the series as the voice of Anne. According to Braly, Song add-libbed several jokes during recording.

Character

Physical appearance

Anne is a tall, slender girl of Thai descent. She has tan skin and short, messy brown hair which, before coming to Amphibia, looked relatively the same. It has leaves and a twig sticking out on top as a sign of her having lived there for so long. After returning to earth, she got rid of all leaves and twigs, but got new leaves and twig shortly after returning to Amphibia.

Anne usually wears her school uniform consisting of a mauve skirt and undershirt and a light blue-gray shirt with her school's coat of arms on it. She wears white socks, but only one yellow-and-white sneaker, having lost the other one some time before meeting the Plantars; the other sneaker is now in the possession of Captain Grime.

Personality

Anne is described as fearless and self-centered. She also has a rebellious side, as shown in the second segment of the first episode, where she and Sprig defy Hop Pop's orders to stay put and instead go to the Lake to swim. Anne is shown to have a Zany side; a good example are her interactions with Sprig and anyone else she is really close to. She is also very energetic, which has got her both in and out of trouble. Anne started off as a slightly conceited girl who nevertheless embraced her ethnic roots. Anne is a Pop-culture enthusiast with a love for young-adult movies and TV shows. Like most teenagers, Anne is obsessed with her phone, often watching shows and playing games on it. In spite of her recklessness, Anne can often deliver good advice. This is seen in both "Grubhog Day", where she advises Sprig to tell Hop Pop that he doesn't want to take care of the grubhog, and "Cursed!", where she tells Sprig to just break his engagement with Maddie due to his fear of her.

Reception

Response towards Anne has been very positive, ScreenRant had listed her as one of the Best characters from Amhpibia.

Other appearances

She would later appear in Chibiverse, an animated series based on the "Chibi Tiny Tales" shorts.
