I wasn't the biggest fan of Newts in Tights, mainly caught I never cared too much for that one mustached newt who's name I can't be bothered to look up. Because of my lack of interest with him specifically the whole episode suffered. I did love Anne's speech about him being a lousy thief. Quick but very heartfelt.

Fight or Flight was much better. Still a bit of a filler, but in a fun way. Also nice to see a reconnect with a character we haven't seen since, I think, episode two. Cute and fun with the right amount of Spranne heart to it.

Also, as an aside, I can't get over how AMAZING Sasha looks in her new outfit. Seriously, every time she's on screen I just think "damn she is fierce!!" Whoever made her season 3 character design is brilliant!

More entertaining episodes for progression

These were some really entertaining episodes,it felt like old amphibia episodes. Both were funny and silly and they were more of a spranne pair of episodes. The more rewarding parts are seeing those two go on some adventures as well as seeing lighter moments while everything progresses. Characters from season one have returned and that was really nice to see as everything from past episodes continue to connect even more now.

Is there really an excuse for this?

Warning: Spoilers
It all comes down to the description, when it comes to this one. Basically speaking, this was a "troll episode." It was an episode made to mess with the fandom, as the description made heavy implications that it would be an episode about Darcy. Instead, they made it about a cat-spider. (Which weirdly enough, Anne seemed to care about more then Marcy, in a general sense).

With most shows, I wouldn't have a problem with this kind of episode. But Amphibia Season 3 has had very inconsistent quality, so having an episode like this leaves nothing but a sour taste in my mouth. This show was still in the process of earning back the respect I used to have for it, and both episodes from last week convinced me that it would do so. But this weeks bunch makes me scared for the finales quality, and makes me certain I'm not going to be blown away.

The reason I give it 6 stars is because this is likely the last filler adventure with Sprig and Anne. The first half of this episode was a great final adventure imo, and I was really happy to see the return of Anne's old sword trainer. Meanwhile, the second was little more then an insult to the fandoms patience, time, and attachment to the characters. It also made me almost certain that Anne is a sociopath. How in the world does she care more about a spider cat, then her best friend since childhood? At this point, I am convinced no emotional scene between Anne and Marcy will convince me that the season 3 version of Anne's character legitimately cares about her.
