Who would've thought that, after all these years, I'd have the opportunity to make a post about NEW content? And right on the tenth anniversary of the Season 2 premiere / Ludo in the Wild!
Sure, not exactly canon, but it's still the tiniest of glimpses into the daily life of Earthni! Waiting for Daron Nefcy to acknowledge its existence to possibly know if she or anyone from the old crew of the show was involved to an extent, or if this was entirely the child of whatever Disney department works with "promotional" things like this.
This obviously could mean nothing beyond the animators getting old reference materials or literally reusing already existing assets, but seems like Butterfly Castle got repaired.
In my heart of hearts I know everything Ludo showed is actually real even though he said it was all a distraction and I know he actually paints little Buff Frogs (bottom left corner).
The Pigeon Kingdom castle being so close to the city park means no picnic is free from guano. Earthni, what a terrible place!
Also, as a reminder to normal people who might have forgotten a detail or two in the SEVEN YEARS since the finale aired, according to Daron Nefcy the laser puppies are still alive but regular puppies now. Yes, it doesn't make much sense given the effects the destruction of magic had. No, we won't think about it.
Oskar got his car back from the Realm of Magic, Tom learned how to ride dragoncycles enough for Hampton to let him do it, and Roy went from "Goblin Dogs are for select few who earn them" to "it's capitalism, baby. LSD for everyone!" over the course of the show.
Grown ass man by the way.
Can't believe Ludo is so poor Spider has to read magazines that are almost two years old by now.
Neat reference, and a good way to tell just how different Ludo's voice / acting was in S1 compared to the rest of the show, when he was still your typical megalomaniacally diminutive silly villain rather than a serious threat living through seven different mental health crises as part of his character arc.
Even if the canonicity of this short is extremely partial at best, it's nice for Star to be glad at the idea of Ludo enjoying his life.
They're true to me! I get the comedic potential of Ludo going after the wand now that there's no magic to harness anymore at all, but I hope that in Canon Land, in the sweet dreams for a fifth season (now with a budget increase) Daron has when falling asleep, Ludo maintains his progress from S4 and is living his best life without thinking about the wand anymore.
I also hope that Earthni gets more textures for the sky and that the blue-lilac one is just, like, at sunset. Would be boring for all scenes to have the same background!
Since Star's finale took place more or less in 2016 while Amphibia takes place in 2019, this sentence clearly tells us two things:
Ludo has deep knowledge of the multiverse and its mysteries and was aware of the location of the Calamity Box and its function years before the events of the series.
Earth completely obliterated the Mewni part of Earthni, additional moons and suns included, before the events of Amphibia, restoring Los Angeles / the universe to its natural order.
