Leroy & Stitch

Leroy & Stitch is clearly the “wrap-up” episode of the franchise with all the experiments reunited, the major characters continuing plot points from Stitch! The Movie to their conclusion, and an Endgame-like “gang’s all here” montage of them fighting the bad guy(s). It’s …just kinda there? Dr. Hamsterviel remains a lackluster guiding force as an antagonist, cute for a multi-episode arc but not much more, but at least the film ends with us getting the warm fuzzies that are built into the franchise’s best moments. Nothing holds a candle to the original, but none of these are the grandiose embarrassments of Return of Jafar or Kronk’s New Groove.
