Stephen Amell"s Arrowverse Return Makes Oliver & Felicity"s Ending Even More Tragic

Warning: Spoilers for The Flash season 9, episode 9
Oliver and Felicity’s ending in Arrow is made considerably more tragic by what The Flash season 9 revealed about Stephen Amell’s character. The events that took place in “Crisis on Infinite Earths” saw the Green Arrow make the ultimate sacrifice. However, it’s known from what happened in the Arrow series finale that Oliver and his wife, Felicity, will reunite in the afterlife when she inevitably meets her end.
The Flash season 9, episode 9, titled “It’s My Party And I’ll Die If I Want To,” brought back Oliver for emotional reunions with both Barry Allen and John Diggle. In addition to giving him a team-up with his former allies, The Flash season 9 was able to dive a bit deeper into Oliver’s role as the Spectre. Through his talks with Barry, a great deal was learned about how things work for him now that he resides in the afterlife. And while it confirmed that Oliver’s situation isn’t quite the same as death, it wound up making his Arrowverse exit an even sadder event.
Stephen Amell's Return Confirms Oliver Can't Interact With Felicity Or His Kids Thanks to The Flash, it’s now understood that Oliver’s death is more complicated than originally thought. While he is most assuredly still dead, he can apparently leave the afterlife under certain circumstances. According to him, he can return to the land of the living when the multiverse in danger. It was this exception that enabled him to help the Flash defeat Bloodwork in the episode. Curiously, Oliver wasn’t forced to immediately return once the threat was resolved. He was able to stick around for a short period afterward, but as Oliver said, he still can’t interact with Felicity, William and Mia.
It would seem that the “rules” Oliver mentioned to Diggle actually allow him to enjoy himself after saving the multiverse, given that he participated in Barry’s birthday party before going back. He even had time to have heartfelt talks with Diggle and Barry. But using that time to visit Felicity and his children is off the table. Instead, Oliver can only observe how their lives progress from the afterlife and refrain from interfering directly.
