Wakfu: The Animated Series [Season 4 Episode 13 Review] {Season Finale}

This is it! The final episode of the fourth season, and—until the fifth and final season is created and released in a couple years—the final episode of the series.

Will The Brotherhood of the Tofu save the day or will the next season be a animated version of The Walking Dead? Let’s find out!

I’m going to divide my analysis into three parts: The Sadida Battle, The Necroworld Battle, and The Post-War Wrap-Up.

Sadida Battle

Shout-out to Amalia for inspiring the troops after Armand’s death. She and Armand had their many MANY disagreements, but they still loved each other. They’re family and always will be.

This battle feels more dire than Team Yugo’s because they’re more characters at risk of dying. Take Percedal, for example. The Necros did the smart thing and targeted him, seeing as he’s the most powerful physical fighter there. Thankfully, Amalia’s grief power-up saved him.

Retail employees one minute before their store closes.

Holy crap! Ruel did something useful! He and Kamasutar went full Steven Universe and fused into a giant beast man. A cool moment, indeed. Now, leave the show and never come back.

Seriously, Ruel isn’t a character worth keeping around anymore. He doesn’t interact much with the other main characters, his subplot with his ex-wife is awful, and he’s simply no longer important to the narrative. Ruel doesn’t need to die, but he absolutely needs to just go away.

Nora’s able to free Efrim of his hunger through…twin connection shenanigans. I guess their psychic link goes both ways. Efrim’s anger and resentment from being left behind after saving the Eliatrope Goddess fueling his desire to fight helps provide another layer to the character. Good stuff.

With their combined will overriding the obsessive hunger, Nora and Efrim create portals to Necorworld for their friends to dispatch the Necros. If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. And if that’s not an option: Send their zombie butts back home!

Necroworld Battle

Yugo, Goultard, and Master Joris VS Toross Mordal. They don’t have to kill this Big Bad (Thank goodness because they can’t). They just need to distract him long enough to find, free, and escape with Nora. Without her, the Necros’ invasion is kaput.

What I love about this part of the episode is discovering just how much damage the six dofus of Toross’s world caused. We never learn exactly what happened, just that it involved Toross using the dofus caused not only the creation of the Necros and the destruction of their world, but they also devastated the surrounding solar system! That. Is. Insane!

To be fair, Yugo. Toross warned you to stay off his lawn.

If you love over-the-top anime fights, you’re in for a treat. Wakfu delivers throughout this entire episode. It’s quite the spectacle and a great pay-off to the Necros storyline since their introduction early in the season.

Goultard is the MVP!

This man was willing to sacrifice himself so Yugo could escape Necroworld. His heart is as strong as his uppercut. He’s absolutely one of, if not, my favorite character in the entire series!

Yugo saves Goultard and escapes through his siblings’ portal after all the Necros are kicked out of The World of Twelve. See you next fall, Toross. Get it? Because you’re falling. Well, I thought it was funny.

Post-War Wrap-Up

A defeated Toross Mordal walking back to and then sitting down on his throne was so powerful. He’s back to square one. No wakfu. No Eliatropes. No portals. Efrim and Nora are gone and with them any hope of feeding his eternal hunger. That is, unless he invents a phone and downloads UberEats.

I hate Nora and Efrim’s fate in the story! HATE it. They just f-off to the edge of the universe, forever. That’s so sad. And worse yet, they aren’t aknowleged by Yugo,Adamai, or anyone else after that. They just left and everyone else I guess just instantly forgot about them. Total BS.

It’s a dark thing to say but I wish Nora and Efrim would’ve killed themselves instead. At least they could be reborn and not spend the rest of eternity floating at the edge of nowhere. UGH!

There’s only a couple minutes left in the show. Better wrap it up with a long-awaited event full of character cameos. That’s right, Y’all. Yugo and Amalia are getting married!

Anime Expo, here we come!

Wait just a damn minute! Dathura? Who invited you to the wedding? Sadida Kingdom along with the entire planet was almost destroyed and you didn’t lift one grassy finger. Screw you! You get this episode’s Wakfu Award shoved right up your weed hole.

All in all, this was a great season. Much better than Season Three. A strong start, an enjoyable middle, and an exciting ending. Looking forward to the fifth season in a couple years. Until then, remember you can watch every episode of Wakfu on YouTube on Amakama’s official channel.

Now, if you’ll excuse me. I gotta get back to work. Let’s see…this pizza delivery goes to a Mr. T.M. on 6613 Necros Ave. Damn, that’s far. He better give me a huge tip!
