Anne Boonchuy

“	All I wanted was this town's respect. But just because these people treated me crummy doesn’t mean I’m gonna do the same to them. I’m done with this. I don’t care if they’ve broken the law. You can’t treat people like this!	„
	~ Anne Boonchuy

Anne Savisa Boonchuy is the main protagonist of Amphibia. She is a 13-year-old Thai-American human girl who originally resided on Earth, specifically California.

Background[]

Anne Savisa Boonchuy is always a good girl however she was always manipulated by her "friend" Sasha to ditch school due to boredom. The two go together riding shop carts, doing graffiti, and playing hooky causing truancy. While chilling in the cafe Sasha convince Anne to meet with Marcy her other friend, who had found the Calamity Box in the thrift shop. Anne hesitates thinking of her parents and is late for her birthday party they planned for her but Sasha forces Anne to go with her or they will never be friends again "end of discussion". She complies and the two leave the cafe to meet with Marcy to steal the box, a biggest mistake on her life. They open the box in an old park and the three girls are transported to Amphibia with Anne arriving on Wartwood.

Anne is a self-assured and fearless teen with the spirit of an adventurer. 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. 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. Over time, Anne has grown to love the family as her own and does not wish any harm come to them, though she can sometimes be purposefully manipulative to them to get what she wants(an influence from her toxic friend Sasha). 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 the Toads.

Powers & Abilities[]

Resourcefulness: In the episode "Anne or Beast?", she's able to craft both a rope trap which traps Sprig quite effectively and a wooden spear by herself after getting stuck in Amphibia. She also utilizes the weaknesses of her opponent such as the sun in "Combat Camp" to blind Tritonio and Sasha's cape to blind her in "True Colors".
Cooking: Anne is skilled at fusion cooking and cutting food. In "Lily Pad Thai," she was seen being proficient in culinary-related activities; having a vast knowledge of her own culture's cuisine. It was also stated that her parents owned a Thai restaurant back in her hometown. It can also be stated that she can be a professional waitress as she can persuade customers to eat at Stumpy's restaurant and acquire each customer's needs like delivering food and refilling drinks. She can also cook better than Hop Pop that as he once stated before eating Anne's homemade omelet that he was eating "garbage" all this time, it can also be a callback to how he'd always lose at the food competition when he submits his own food as an entry. In "If You Give a Frog a Cookie", she is able to bake cookies which her mother says are delicious (at least until it was discovered that she put bugs in them).
Athleticism: Anne has been shown to be a natural athlete, claiming to have played varsity and practiced bouldering in school. In "The Big Bugball Game", she quickly becomes the star player of the team and is able to help them win the annual Bugball game. She is also able to use her skills in combat as well, holding her own stand against Toad Soldiers in "Toad Tax" and other threats throughout the show. In "The Third Temple", she is able to resist the gravitational pull better than Marcy and the amphibians, as well as swing a warhammer quite easily which she claims, weighs around one ton.
Hunting: In "Anne Hunter" Anne put her self-consciousness aside in order to learn the true way of the hunter. After not listening to Sprig about the Plantar ritual, she found herself in a problem as the Plantars were captured. Anne panics and with a hallucination version of Sprig, she completes the Plantar ritual and saves the family.
Martial Arts: In "Ivy on the Run", Anne is shown to be a Muay Thai practitioner, as she dodges Polly's reckless headfirst attacks with ease and is able to counter-attack her, plus spar well with Wally.
Tennis Skills: Anne has been shown to be proficient in playing tennis and applies the skills, and her racket, to combat as shown in the theme song and various episodes of Season 1 and Season 2. However, since she hasn't really practiced she has shown to lose some of the actual playing skills she once had as Mr. Boonchuy remarks "your backhand's looking a little rusty" in "Anne-sterminator."
Swordsmanship: Anne has been shown to wield a sword since "Toad Tax", but received proper training in "Combat Camp" and used her newfound skill in various episodes such as "Reunion", "Handy Anne", "Return to Wartwood", "True Colors", "Fight at the Museum", and "Escape to Amphibia", along with her resourcefulness.
Calamity Box Powers: Anne possessed powers pertaining to the blue Calamity Gem of Heart. In "Anne or Beast?", because Anne protected Sprig for an instant, risking her safety for a stranger, she utilized a lot more strength than she normally could and in "Handy Anne" because something of significance of someone she cared about was destroyed for a few moments she had a boost in speed, agility, combat prowess and courage, even to the point of yelling at Veggierobo. Following the events of "True Colors", Anne seems to have gained the power from the blue stone of the Calamity Box, allowing her to have a different appearance like her hair turning blue along with her eyes and have multiple enhanced abilities. As shown in the events of "The New Normal", Anne's powers seemed to take a toll on her. Given that she couldn't seem to control her powers, Anne was left greatly exhausted, and claims to feel "bad" after using them. Despite the loss of stamina after using them, Anne seemed to get better control of her abilities after each use. In "The New Normal", Anne could only manifest them as blue energy around her eyes and fists and damage part of the Cloak-Bot, while in "Anne-sterminator," she manifested them as a flaring blue aura of intense energy and kicked the damaged Cloak-Bot into low orbit before it self-destructed. As seen in "Escape to Amphibia," Anne displayed some degree control of her powers, able to activate them at will and with no sign of fatigue after using them. Moreover, she released energy with greater intensity than the last two times she used them since her first return to Earth. In "Mother of Olms," it is revealed that Anne was destined to have her powers as Mother Olm state that the powers were rightfully hers from the start to save the people of Amphibia from the worst of themselves. However, Anne notes that she still can't fully control them.
- Appearance Alteration: When Anne activates her calamity power, her eyes and hair change into a neon blue color, with twigs and branches left in her hair becoming permanent wooden horns. Also, the leaves flow around in her hair and around her. It's also possible that her former clothing is now a part of this form, as seen in the Season 3 intro when Anne changes into this form when she's wearing different clothes. However, if not using her full power, her hair will take on a darker shade, jagged and non-consistent flowing hair style.
- Enhanced Strength, Durability, and Agility: Her connection with the blue stone massively increased her human abilities, allowing her to deliver more powerful strikes and made her more durable against enemies that would significantly injure her standard form. She was also incredibly agile while fighting foes, as seen in "True Colors" and "All In." The exact magnitude of her strength is unknown, but she was shown the power to smash sturdy material with her bare fists such as the armor of Andrias' Dyoplosaurus mech.
- Enhanced Speed/Flash Step/Perception Manipulation/Flight: The power of the stone also increased Anne's speed to supernatural levels. Anne had the power to vanish and reappear within seconds when battling King Andrias in his castle along with being able to move rapidly while mid-air. During the fight where her powers emerged, the lasers fired from Andrias' robots seemed to freeze around her as she moved, implying that she is capable of moving faster than light.
  - Instant Momentum/Sliding: As shown in the fight between her and the Cloak-Bot, Anne can quickly move on surfaces without taking a single step to the point where she leaves behind afterimages of herself.
- Energy Manipulation: In this state, Anne can generate multiple blasts of intense blue energy powerful enough to make Andrias' Frobots and castle pillars explode when hit. She can also create a blue aura that seems to act as a propulsion boost for her agility.
  - Energy Augmentation: As seen in "Escape to Amphibia", Anne can use her raw energy of her blue state to power machines. Ally and Jess describe Anne in this state as being a "human battery," when she uses her power to strengthen and increase of the size of the portal to Amphibia.
  - Energy Infusion: As seen in "All In", Anne infused her sword with her energy, causing it to glow in the same blue color. Doing this increased the durability and overall effectiveness of her sword.
  - Energy Shockwaves: She could create shockwaves around herself that cover multiple directions.
- Power Restoration: According to Mother Olm in her titular episode, Anne has the ability to restore Sasha and Marcy's Calamity Box Powers. The process was done via Anne, along with Sasha and Marcy to focus on their love for Amphibia, allowing the Calamity Gems to resonate with their hearts and grant them their full power.
- Telekinesis: When Anne was fighting Andrias while he was in his mech-suit, she was able to locate her sword (which was stuck to a Frobot) and bring it back to her from a far distance with her mind.
- Full Calamity Powers: In "The Hardest Thing," Anne accessed the full extent of her powers when all three Calamity Gems were together in her final fight against The Core-controlled Moon. In this form Anne was clothed in golden armor with blue linings with gold and white boots, and blue skirt with matching cape. Moreover, her powers were far more intense than in her previous uses with them.
  - Energy Constructs: With her producing a greater amount of energy, Anne had the power to create any object of her choosing out solid blue energy. During her fight against the Core, Anne created a large tennis racket and tennis ball out of pure energy. The tennis ball would later transform into homing energy missiles in the form of kittens that yield incredible destructive power.
  - Immense Strength: Anne's strength with her full power is far greater than before. Not only could she destroy many of the Core's robots with her might, but also hold back the moon in part with Sasha and Marcy.
  - Immense Speed/Flight: With her powers boosted, Anne was much faster than before, allowing her to leave the planet's atmosphere in seconds and decimate the Core's monstrous robots at faster-than light speeds.
  - Immense Durability: Anne was able to survive her own explosions, as well as the force of the Core's final gambit being pushed against her along side Sasha, Marcy and the frobots.
  - Enhanced Telekinesis/Energy Forcefield: Her telekinesis was able to send Sasha and Marcy back to Amphibia in seconds after creating a forcefield around them.
- Absolute Calamity Powers: When stopping the Core seemed impossible, Anne called upon the power of all three Calamity Gems by asking them to help her save Amphibia. The gems responded to her plea and imbued her with their hidden power. In this form, Anne's body brimmed with white energy, and her eyes became akin to blue stars. Sparks of the Calamity Gems' energies glimmered throughout her body, with a single spark glowing on her chest. Anne had absolute control of the gems' power, allowing her to destroy the Core-controlled moon in its entirety, but at the cost of her life.

Equipment[]

Tennis Racket: A pink tennis racket used by Anne for tennis at her school back on Earth.
Tritonio's Ancestral Sword: This sword was given to Anne by Tritonio as a present. It has a silver blade, although it glows with a blue tone during the night. It possesses a pointed central ridge and a gold hilt and also acquires an intricately designed guard with a lighter golden shade. The pommel is of similar color but also has a flower-like style at the base.

As Super Anne (white form):
- Shot a blast through the Core controlled moon and into space in a short time frame (43% C)
There are some instances of blasts that look like lasers showing up across the series. These lasers do have contradictions however, meaning these feats could be seen as weird to use.
