You know what would be a twist? If they disregarded the end of the previous season and they just shrugs it with, "eh, a wizard did it."
Well, about the end of the last season
SpoilerWell a wizard did do it. Most of the ITs in that ending were done via wizard
I'm upset that it was only 15 minutes rather than a half hour *hrmpf*
So there seems to be quite a bit of Kings in this season. Fight King is my favorite. Marceline's boyfriend Ash, at least in his disguise makes me think of the Exiles from Homestuck
After seeing this clip, I'm really looking forward to the Fionna/Cake episode. If Adventure Time does ever get canceled, they can just re-pitch it as with female main characters. I am really not looking forward to Jake's gender swapped character. I think it's the voice. I'm a huge fan of Bender from Futurama so I love the fact his voice actor is Jake, and who ever they got for Cake just doesn't sound like Jake's female version.
Adventure Time is excellent.
Most upbeat post apocalyptic Earth I can think of.
I have to confess, I didn't realize the show was post apocalyptic until I read the TV tropes page. I never thought to think all this high-tech stuff and nuclear waste had a purpose. I thought it was just random stuff thrown into the background. I mean, there are anthropomorphic candy people. Should I over-think this stuff?
In this setting, there could be mushroom people. It can be interpreted many ways.
Yeah, but still, there is some dark comedy in the series so I just thought "Eh, nuclear waste, whatever." Take the balloons in one episode who exclaim joy when they learn they can finally float up to the stratosphere and die. Explain that.Quote:
And I'm not saying to overthink it, but Adventure Time has a lot more subtext than most kids shows.
Uh... it's hell being a balloon? Seriously think about it, you can't really control where you go in a moderate wind, you have no way of interacting with anything, your only purpose is to float and be towed around places, you can pretty die anywhere outside a house. I'd be a little suicidal if I were sentient in that situation.
Also, the Mushroom War also involved the return of magic, so there's that.
Dr. Epic, you should find a nice piece of fanart to top this strip.
Post Apocalypse Earth = Adventure Time is one of those 'And now I cannot unsee it'. There's ruins of modern cities in a lot of places. But everything's so happy about it.
Personal theory is that Ooo shares a border with Equestria.
I think Ooo is just Fantasia from the Neverending Story. After the third movie, I think people just stopped caring and the writers realized no matter how stupid they make it, it can't get worse than this.
Yeah.
Mushroom war was bad, but hey. No one was left who could remember how it had happened, at least, no-one who would do anything.
Or so Dr. Wily believed.
Marceline, some business men in ice. Maybe a few others outside the afterlife and the nightosphere. But it's been a long time since, long enough for baseline humanity to nearly go extinct, wars to be fought, and a lot of other stuff went down.
The present is pretty sweet. There's a cure for death.
WHAT!?!?!? They changed PB back into an adult? What was the point of even making her a child then?
I can't be sure, but I think it had something to do with the voice actresses. The original voice actress wanted to quit, so they planned to change PB and get a new voice actress. But the the original VA signed back on, so here we are. Or at least I think that might be it. At least it makes sense.
And even if it wasn't for any VA issues, it still did have an in-show purpose. The entire thing showed Finn that it could work. Now that she's five years older than him again, it won't be easy, but he has to be persistant. He might have to defeat a demon lord and warp through several worlds. But once he does, he can walk up the wizard stairs and produce his magic key he got in the water world and unlock the chamber door. Then he can walk up to the princess and give her a smooch.
I kinda felt sorry for Pepperint Butler this whole episode... Spice in the eye, licked by Lemongrab... He just couldn't get a break this episode...
But he's also adorable! He's one of my favorite characters. Sure, he may not get as much spotlight as many of the others, but he's still awesome.
And he was entitled to eat their flesh! They had a deal!
I will admit that I have missed the new season of AT so far, though the fact that this has appeared, fills me with joy...
Wait, does this mean if Princess Bubblegum gets cut in half, there could be two 13 year old princesses walking around? Finn could potentially be dating twins! All he has to do is brutally massacre the love of his life.:smallwink:
Nah, it would be two nine year old PBs if she was cut perfectly in half and they didn't put her back together.
So I just got into this show via a friend's recommendation. Almost done with the first season now. This show is a quality program.
On one hand, the gender swapped episode looks awesome (Grey Delisle!), but if the personalities of the characters change simply due to them now being women/men, someone could cry "unfortunate implications", which I'm not looking forward to.
Additionally I'm mad at myself for missing the new season three episodes. I can't believe myself, I literally have nothing better to do on mondays and I'm missing Adventure Time due to sheer forgetfulness!
Also,
Spoilerwhy is Prince Gumball eighteen? shouldn't he be, y'know...younger? Or did Fionna not fight the Lich in this universe?
