Regarding the episodes, there is this interesting discussion between Marceline and the Vampire King in the third episode:

>V.K:"You know, Marceline? There is still another way..."
>M:"Give it a rest already!"
>V.K:"No. "Another" another way."

What was Marceline thinking?

Welp, guess it really was a "return to status quo" thing. Even despite that, was still nice. I laughed, I felt some tension, I felt empathy and sympathy, it was nice. I feel like I'll get flak for this, but, really, "Status Quo" isn't that bad, and, like the song, everything's back to where it was before the beginning of the season, but there are still the changes in attitude and it was a good mini-series. Like a transitioning period from the familiar before and a similar after.
For the miniseries, overall, 8.8 - 9/10, was nice.

Well, that was underwhelming as fuck.

The only good episodes were 1, 5 and 7. The rest varied from awful to almost bearable.

No tension, awful pacing, Marceline's character was all over the place, cringey songs. Comedy was pretty damn great though. The best thing about the mini was probably the VK.

The dark king cloud was cool, but there were too many stupid moments

>Wheel of Fortune is a Tarot Card

i havent really been here for any of the threads, has there been much discussion about the tarot card theme of the vamps? was it super clever or just fake deep? is there more to the moon that id better understand if i knew shit about tarot cards?
>>
>>77496467
This is where the difference in storyboarder styles really shines
>>
>>77496483
I wouldn't call it deep or fake deep or anything like that.
It was just a neat character theme that's not as overplayed as shit like the seven deadly sings, card suites or the four traditional elements.
>>
>>77496467
I pretty much completely agree. Though 5 was kind of meh as well. And some of the jokes also fell completely flat (the hand on shoulder thing for example).

I was actually ready to drop this after episode 6 but then I watched 7, which was pretty great. Unfortunately I watched 8 too. This has been quite the ride.

Can we also bury the lesbian shit now? It seems pretty clear that it's not going to happen other than some mild teasing.
>>
>>77496490
I feel like the Adventure Time storyboarders desperately need to communicate ideas with each other more and get in sync.
It's like all of them just do their own thing and ignore everyone elses work.
>>
>>77496494
fair enough. what was the deal with the moon's pearls though?

The Fool's a fool,

King mentioned Chariot, which might have been a callback.

>>77496557
It's a really common joke and marceline said it in a way that she doubted. It false under the meaningless mild teasing.
>>
It started okay, it developed itself great and it ended up being only okay again.

Kind of surprised Tom Herpich and Steve Wolfhard wrote the worst episodes while Jesse and Ako wrote the best ones along with Muto and the new storyboard artist. Are they going to make us feel like shit for not liking Jmoyns' episodes at the end of this season?

Overall 7/10.

"Over the mountain, the ominous cloud

>>
Overall I enjoyed the miniseries a lot but I am pretty disappointed in how it ended, even if the song and montage at the end was nice.

I mean, it feels like "the status quo will never significantly change" was the moral of this whole thing. So I guess it's good of the show to acknowledge that and let people know, but it's still disappointing. Sort of kills my interest in any future developments.
>>
>>77496597
Something like this is what I was worried about when Jesse said he was leaving AT.

I'm gonna be sad either way though. If his S7 episodes are awesome then that sucks because he's gone and we won't get anymore, but if his episodes are ass I'll still be bummed because one of the guys who's been with the show for so long and made so many previous great ones left.
Why'd you have to fuck your shit up Jesse, I'm so conflicted about you now you nigger ;_;
>>
>>77496594
I'm sure she knows if she's feeling love, but forgot what that could physically feel like with a functioning body. So she thought of the most likely reason for why she was feeling that way at that moment
>>
>>77496619
I doubt the reason why he left the show was that. He said more times he wanted to work on personal stuff once the show reached his 8th/9th season.

I'm still expecting for someone to copy-paste the post he made about him leaving Adventure Time on his blog.

Nah I'm not talking about his reasons for leaving, just about how my feelings on it will change and I'll be somewhat bummed either way.
>>
>>77496597
I don't get why people like Tom + Steve so much. That pairing has been insufferable for years. Their form of 2deep is even worse than Jesse's. But when Jesse focuses on entertainment value, he is better than them. His offbeat sense of humor fits the show.
>>
>>77496580
It's funny because the song at the end is directly referencing the return to the status quo. The drastic changes from the start of the season and this mini-series are obviously gone, but the developments they wrought aren't.
>>
>>77496649
I'm not sure what your point. It was just a joke but because she came up with love in a doubtful voice it must mean she really is in love?
>>
>>77496676
>Their form of 2deep is even worse than Jesse's.
Pfffft

I agree that Tom/Stevey are pretty overrated around here, I wanna say it's because Tom is a name people remember from the earlier seasons and that makes people like him and they tend to make decent enough episodes.
But literally every boarding team has the potential to shit the bed nowadays, and do so fairly frequently, those two no exception.

I wonder if Tom and Steve would be better with new people, I mean haven't they been together for like 3+ years now? Mix that shit up, Jesse's been with like 3 different people besides Ako in that time.
>>
>>77496660
Just bringing it up since Moyniham was involved in Checkmate and the episode Cloud Hunt appeared in.
>>
>>77496709
Well that, and the fact vampires were apparently a problem before or during the time the war started.
>>
>>77496706
The point is, after everything we've seen, there's no doubt that's what they wanted to do but had to be sneaky about it like always for censorship reasons
>>
>>77496734
Sorry but that's just an easy way to see what you want, even if it's true. But if that floats your boat, good for you I guess.
>>
What the fuck is this sparkling transformation bullshit? Sailor Moon?

Wait, so was the Vampire King the lion or the essence that made the lion a vampire?
>>
>>77496697
Honestly that wouldn't be a problem if they didn't get rid of Finns dad and bring a cthulu penguin monster in and out in a few seconds.
>>
>>77496770
It sounded like the latter.
>>
>>77496734
Holy shit why do people keep insisting that it's due to censorship restrictions? Because it makes juicy gossip?
>>
>>77496770
It seems like the latter but that wouldn't explain why he suddenly went bananas in giant fog of death form.
>>
>>77496510
From wikipedia
> The Moon is "shedding the moisture of fertilizing dew in great drops"
It's part of the cards design. The pearls had no effect on Finn when he ate them.
>>
>>77496784
Juicy gossip.
>>
>>77496770
I figured it was the lion and the essence. Marcy thought the king had "won" but really it didn't work, seems like he just wanted to be free of the cycle of status quo. Which failed.

Maybe he wrote something about it in Pep butt's book.
>>
>>77496784
Because that's the reason the crew provided.
Yeah it's a half assed excuse and probably partly bullshit but it's the most hard evidence there is.

>>
>People being surprised at status-quo

There was a promo aired on CN that clearly shows Marceline with two bites on her neck singing Everything Stays. We already knew it wasn't going to change shit.

The jokes were fun, but overall was expecting more, especially when they compared this mini-series to Over The Garden Wall. It's not even close.
>>
>>77496764
Yeah because I know I'm not going to convince you of the other thing because you don't wanna be, so I may as well get to the point of why it'd be done that way.

>>77496784
Because they danced all the fuck around it without actually saying it, while if it was a boy or a girl we would've heard them clearly state their feelings in some part of the story by now

>>
>>77496848

>>
>>77496850
This article http://www.buzzfeed.com/skarlan/adventure-time-actor-confirms-princess-bubblegum-and-marceli#.kuBeR2q1a says so.
Yeah I know it's buzzfeed but that's what came up. It's legit but they're never gonna do anything more with it besides make innuendos.

>>77496851
I'd imagine there would be a few more. China, maybe some African and really religious Hispanic countries or some shit.
>>
>>77496867
Oh yeah, the Philippines definitely censors episodes.

>>77496865
No because that would be denial. Shit was pretty clear
>>
>>77496863
>acting like it's holy grail
>few people saying 'was okay 7/10' and criticizing it
And nothing will come out of plot in AT, the status quo is staying. All the characters could be brutally killed off like an episode of Aqua Teen and they would be just dandy the next episode.
>>
>>77496697
>but the developments they wrought aren't
haha. character developments? maybe if the characters were consistent for more than 5 seconds at a time. once they undo a big change, there's usually little trace left. show's over folks.

>>77496884

>>
>>77496867
In your article it says that the "no because censorship" is a second hand quote from Olivia herself. There's no way to prove Pen actually said that.
>>
>>77496892
There's only a few new ones man, majority is still old fuddy duddies. Even if the new boarders tried their hardest to make this shit consistent it would still only be that way like, 30% of the time?
>>
>>77496708
Yeah it would probably help if Steve had a different partner. Tom used to be god-tier before that guy started suffocating him.

I feel like Tom's deteriorated like basically everyone else since then. Comparing Steve's solo ep (Graybles 1000) with Tom's Walnuts and Rain Herpich's one is kind of stinky.

He used to be amazing like nearly everyone else boarding but that was a while back.
I'm still sort of bummed that Tom and Ako never did more stuff together, their episodes were pleasant as hell and helped stave off Sugar's take over of Marceline ever so slightly.
>>
>>77496848
>I'm not going to convince you of the other thing because you don't wanna be
That's also easy. Here's what I think, the only thing you have is the censorship thing. Here's a tip; if you need to create a boogeyman to make your argument valid, it's probably a really shitty argument.

The entire mini-series was around the debate of change or stay. From the vampires that wanted to go back to their "old ways" to the song from Marceline's mom. Even Marceline with her out of place depression was worried about the fact she didn't manage to change nothing except making things worse for her friends. That was the whole point of it. You just have to accept things and don't be a faggot about it.

They also did Her Parents, The Other Tarts, Guardians of Sunshine, Storytelling, and Conquest of Cuteness. Very funny shit, mostly classics imo.

Apparently Ako is Jesse's neighbor. Maybe that's why she prefers to work with him.

Really? Holy shit, I have no idea how I forgot all of those. I think I just ascribed them to other board teams, I was sure Jesse did The Other Tarts and Tom had someone else with him on Conquest of Cuteness. Huh.

Very strong list, you know that's a good selection when something as not-even-bad as Guardians of Sunshine is the worst one there. Conquest of Cuteness is underrated. Probably, all I know is I really liked it.

>>77497069
not him but I watch for the uncommon 7-8+ out of 10 ones. it makes me so happy when the show does well I'll put up with way too much shit.

Except JoJo didn't feel too absurdly obnoxious about some tarot references.

>>77497078
My explanation was that marcy was not used to having stomach pains, and didn't know what could be causing them. So she thought about what she was feeling at that moment that could possibly explain why her stomach was feeling like that

It was really funny; the goat thing I'm not sure about. Feel like it was just a straightforward gag that kind of missed it's mark slightly, but with shit like Jake sadly burying his burrito and then suggesting they just curbstomp the cutie army it's not really damaging to the overall episode. Jake was really in top form this ep.

I always remember Conquest of Cuteness most fondly because of this video though

I recall it being said only for Stakes. May be possible he'll do more stuff but doesn't seem likely to me.

She realised that the cycle of history was coming back in full swing, even though she'd taken a leap of faith in trusting VK to try to break the pattern.
Marceline only "won" in the technical sense, in reality she bet on a different ending and lost.
>>
>>77497254
They're stubborn bastards who want to keep the freedom to write from a basic template without keeping track of change. Although what they're doing has gotta be harder than a consistent plot. Juggling 10 thousand decorative plot lines and aborting them all after <5 episodes each? Madness.

And I was starting to chastise myself for being so pessimistic.

That was the point. History repeats itself, but changes in small but significant ways (for example, Marcie now has VK in her head).

It's the journey that matters, not the destination. I enjoyed Stakes.
Though I see where you're coming from. The plot loses meaning when you know what the outcome's gonna be. (ironically that's a point they tried to make with stakes)

I'd say more the real "changes" are that: Marceline's less of a mess about being a vampire and being a loner, PB's less of a mess about being in charge of the candy people and maybe even being proud of them, and something in there about how the Flame Kingdom's more of a presence than its ever been.
And hey, now there's a lion hanging around.
And Finn and Jake got to go on an Vampire killing adventure, so that was a neat change for them.
I'm not sure if we should still be spoilering stuff.

I don't think it counts as a taste of mortality when you acquire healing powers again two days latter.

VK stole the show, but the other vamps had interesting things about them except for The Fool.
Hierophant and The Moon were cool and The Empress apparently had Simon under her thrall 1000 years ago before Marceline killed her the first time.

The last episode was so filled with old tropes about hero characterisation it almost made the entire point of the mini-series hypocritical.

Marceline becomes depressed for such a futile reason when she could have adressed that way before the whole hunt, using it as a cheap plot device for the "hero redemption", talk with Ice King included. It was so cliché I almost rolled my eyes

Too bad, some of the episodes were quite fun, despite not being that great either. At least they keeped their obnoxious tarot culture only for the vampires personalities and not for entire plot devices.

This said, I would still enjoy another mini-series, maybe a bit more epic and without any kind of meta-commentary.
>>
>>77497563
Don't be dumb, episodes were great
>>
>>77497548
Random funny shit was supposed to be AT's main theme, so far early every attempt of character development or plot progression felt flat as fuck. And since at the the end of the episode everything went back to normal it is nor like they aren't doing fun random shit nor plot and character development.
>>
>>77497500
Bringing it up once a year or whatever means nothing compared to the potential that arc had.
>>
Well I saw all the episodes and I liked most of them, I am disappointed about the end but I was pretty sure it was going to happen anyway so I cant say it destroyed my like of the mini series.

All that Bubbaline teasing though

>dat finn's voice
*sniff* he grows up so fast...;_;
>>
>>77497704

>>
>>77497625
In the past Finn defeated the Lich, decapitated a giant with his bare hands, exiled a soul sucking demon to hell, saved the candy kingdon, Ooo and the whole world a bunch of times etc etc

In the stakes he pretty much failed at everything he did, including spending the whole day stabbing a self healing vampire because he misinterpreted a word. I understand they needed to get him out of the way so PB and Marceline could shine, but reducing him to a dumb side kick as a very poor way of doing it.

That was because that chump wasn't actually part of the show and had no business claiming shit like that. I'd imagine that Bubbline was a bit of a little disaster when it first emerged and a guy somewhat connected to the show fanning the fire wouldn't have been helpful if it bit them in the ass.

Finn was 12 in season 2 and Marceline was still acting immature. People change.
>>
>>77498404
>>77498520
Plenty of people liked Marcy, noone liked ice king until they started showing some other characterization for him. Sugar's episode was the tipping point though.
>>
>>77498581
They don't change that much after 1000 years of being the same, senpai. But now she's retconned and flashbacked all to hell so I can't really keep track of her character development, quote unquote.

Marcy changed on a dime when Sugar walked in because that's the only way Sugar writes characters. And lo, the fries were eaten and the rest is history.
>>
I always have a good laugh at posts like "I wish writers had the balls to change stuff".

Like the direction the show is taking depends only on them, while having the freedom to do so. It's pretty clear to me that the network is trying to avoid excessive changes on purpose.

Honestly, at this point they may as well call AT Marceline time. Other than the blatant Bubbline pandering, her episodes were all top notch, and legit funny sometimes.
>>
>>77498679
Like hell. I refuse to believe there could be that much riding on the show staying the same. It's not like the show easy to follow as it is. It's already confusing regardless so why pander to imaginary fussy children who fear Finn changing his shirt? Surely execs would see value in the critical praise that comes from a good plot.

But if it is the execs, the writers are assholes instead of just pussies. If you can't change shit for shit and you KNOW THAT, why do you tease endlessly?
>>
>Finn saves the Vampire King's life from Marceline after he has surrendered
I gained new respect for Finn.

I have no idea why people are so upset about status quo in an episodic cartoon.

Nerds have never been good at criticism, so I guess they're reaching for what they remember from English Lit and pop culture reviews, and wonder why there's so little "character development".

Morons.

>>77498741
>Surely execs would see value in the critical praise that comes from a good plot.
They don't care for critical praise, they just want everything to be on model so that they can bank money on these IPs.

>If you can't change shit for shit and you KNOW THAT, why do you tease endlessly?
You'll never know what the network will accept as a change and what not. I think the idea of the writers is to change certain stuff, but they don't know if the network will allow them to do so. That's why there is constant teasing over no change.

Not that everything has to be changed anyway.

I guess she thought he was inviting her to be his consort.

Or to just let him live his life in peace.

i hope they make another mini series about someone else in the final season 8
>>
Just watched the two remaining episodes. The finale was a bit anticlimatic and I really hoped for Bonnie to remain crownless, but overall pretty good. I'll give the series a 8/10

Also hoping for a new miniseries in S8, modern AT is much better with this than with standalone episodes.
>>
>>77496956
While his appearance would have been nice, narratively it wouldn't make sense. Simon already provides the father figure needed. Hudson is also straight up evil and probably would want Marceline to just be an immortal vampire who could suddenly lose control, since it gives a better chance of her one day taking the emerald from him.

The ending was pretty much like the ending of Sandman where lots of things changed but nothing really changed


>But Dream died
ARE YOU RETARDED or did your really miss the point of the entire book, his death wasn't that big of a deal. I mean it obviously was but at the same time no not really at all.
>>
Just watched the latest.

It never occurred to me before, but I think I quite dislike Marceline. It took eight episodes in a row for me to realise it, she's only tolerable in small doses.

I never liked her singing. I don't like the way her characterisation kinda flip flops. I hate how half the times she appears it's just emo bullshit apropos of nothing, and by association I'm not a fan of her relationship with Ice King or the "Simon and Marcy" flashbacks, or for that matter anything to do with Simon's history. Or the Bubbline teasing.

She's like a big chunk of the bad aspects of the show.

Also I'm bummed about KOO no longer on the throne, and PB no longer chilling in her shack with her garden citizens. It obviously wasn't going to last, but I was expecting it to stay that way for at least a little longer. Why is it every seemingly big change only lasts a few episodes in this show? It's like they have the capacity to eschew status quo but after a while they puss out anyway. Either kill it in the episode it's introduced or let it hang around for a while. This way it's just frustrating.
>>
>>77495696
Shit, see you guys at 8 tonight.
>>
>>77498669
This, the bitch doesn't understand characters.
>>
>>77499783
It's not like the show didn't leak like crazy before.
The writing was okay. If anyone suffered it was Finn, not really because of his character but because they made him really incompetent during this ordeal. But I guess "cosmic-grass-arm solves everything" would have been worse

Honestly I wish part 8 was a tad longer, would have been nice to see the War Elephant, or for Finn to use the grass blade even if it did nothing to the cloud.

I liked the message everything changes and yet everything stays the same.
The wheel turns with 8 great ages and by the time the age comes again all will have forgotten it, and it will be the same as before and it will be nothing like before.
>>
>>77499877

100% this.

Simon bullshit ruined both characters. I don't give a fuck about MUH FEELZ garbage, it's forced and overused melodrama.
>>
>>77499925
After the first line break isn't really part of the reply to you.
Also I dunno it's not like keep the status quo ever hurt the show before.
>>
>>77499925
Marceline doesn't want to be a vampire
PB cures her of vampirism
Turns out the souls of the vampires she killed and absorbed the powers of reform and become the 5 most dangerous vampires
She loses all her powers (Flight, invisibility, transformation)
Each episode is her getting one of them back
Last one, Vampire king asks to be cured too, he is, his vampire essence basically becomes a giant cloud monster and as Marceline absorbs him, he bites her and everything goes back to status quo
>>
>>77499984
so they're still vampire though ?

Come to think of it, Marceline is a great reflection of show's general state. Starts off fun, playful and sometimes questionable, ends up as apathetic, bored, whiny and jaded shadow of her former self.

He incapacitates the moon.

That's fairly impressive since the comic shows that she doesn't actually have to speak to make people fall down. Although she may actually have to notice them.
>>
>>77500187
Although the mini series wasn't spectacular, I gotta say it sorta felt a bit like old adventure time at a few points. Some episodes were very flashback orientated and one or two were legitimately ones I would watch again. Not overly spectacular but it's better than that whole Orgalorg/Breezy/Finn's Dad garbage

Got paid to translate it, and... Stakes sucks. It's been seasons since anyone in the right mind gave a shit about AT or any of the characters, and screenwriting in these episodes is almost as spastically/"autistically" bad as in regular modern AT episodes

>>77500437
They could stop being so heavy handed with the "Finn is growing up and confused" and try and go back to adventuring. I know that sounds stereotypical but I really liked when the "lore" was subtle for the most part. That made the Ice King's tape reveal really good. Now they don't build up to anything and just try and cram as much "feels" into episodes like that.
>>
>>77496665
Just watched part 6.

Finn didn't get to stab the vampire? Man, he feels like a side character in his own show now.

>>77500513
Me too, but I also blame CN for letting it run for so long despite obviously taking a huge dip in quality.

I mean, I have no objection with, say, Clone Wars running for 6 and 1/2 seasons - because even then they had interesting stories to tell, and situations to play out

I feel like since Ward left the show has lost all it's direction and is now just being driven by people who are fans of certain characters. A lot of things feel very fan fiction-y.

Some of Stakes was good and started to feel like classic AT but, man, Marcy was all over the place. PB could do no wrong, even when it looked like she might have it turns out she didn't. Finn and Jake had a few good bits but were pretty useless outside of that.

Wonder how the rest of the season will go?

I agree that the jokes in it were quite gold material. Overall pretty enjoyable. Nice sense of adventure, great jokes, Finn and Jake were quite funny this time around despite being totally useless and secondary for the story.

I'm starting to feel good for the writers to not focus too much on "serious" storytelling. It's just not their thing, at least for most of them.

Season 7 has been pretty great so far. Better jokes, better sense of adventure, no too much try-harding on serious plots. Really liking it so far, and it looks like I'm not the only one.

It will be hilarious if AV Club doesn't like the direction they are taking with this season because it lacks of false depth.

here. I love that boy and I wanna see him be glorious. But they actually prefer bland, ancient Strong Independent Wimmins over the one who's so naive and is struggling so hard and has so much room to grow? The pain never ends.

btw even with all her angsty shit, Sugar had a lot of confidence in Finn and obviously enjoyed writing for him. Watch Gotcha! and see how much that bitch admired him. Miss her for that.

So Marceline is Firestorm now?
>>
>>77504151
It looked more like the halfway point in a Sailor Moon wardrobe change.
>>
>>77504008
As soon as they decide to make him a threat again which will be the show's finale more than likely, so his return will be bittersweet.
>>
How is PB going to react to Dirtbeer guy?

>>
>>77504126
>The final showdown could have been easily avoided if Peppermint Butler didn't accidentally stomp the lion's tail, Marceline would have been a human for her entire life.

Which is kind of the reason why I think her breakdown was unnecessary and felt more like as a lazy plot device for her final fight against the Vampire King
>>
>>77504376
Completely uncaring or mildly interested because of science at most.
>>
>>77504377
The entire thing?

I'd give it a solid 8/10. Solid villains really made this one work, notably Hierophant and the King. Marcy's one lame ass poetry slam in 4 was the only real complaint I had.
>>
>>77504411
Why are you calling it unnecessary and then you call it a "plot device", which is quite the opposite?
>>
>>77504377
8/10
Good villains, adventure and some pretty good laughs. Some of the songs were a miss though. And the final episode felt a little weak and rushed.
>>
>>77504377
9/10
>>
>>77504377
7/10
>>
>>77504377
I add my vote to the group of 8/10. Some underwhelming songs and the last episode are the worst offenders. Best aspect of it are the jokes and finally some adventure.
>>
>>77504377

7/10 The last episode ruined it for me and that shitty song.
>>
>>77504411
It could have been avoided if PB didn't hand the equivalent of a nuclear bomb to a guy that couldn't see the bowl he was pouring milk in
>>
Marcy is hungry for solid food.
Doesn't recognize the sensation.
"...maybe it's love?"
>>
Overall, I enjoyed the miniseries, but god damn. I know that it's been repeated a lot in this thread alone, but I hate how useless and stupid they insisted on making Finn look. Are the writers afraid if they actually make Finn more competent than he was when he was 12 that it will be harder to write adventures for him? Let's look at his track record in Stakes.

>failed to save Marceline from the windmill
>kidnapped by Ice King
>couldn't do shit against Hierophant
>"Finn, it's up to you to stop Moon!" HAHAHAHA
>wasn't the one to convince Marceline to fight
>flails around uselessly on top of Jake while PB surfs on her science couch actually saving people

The only time I was happy for Finn as a character was when he refused to let Marceline kill the Vampire King after he had submitted. It's a trait that I wish they would put a spotlight on more often; the fact that Finn is a GOOD person-easily the most morally upstanding out of the main cast-with a "righteous hero heart." He should be the one getting a big damn hero moment, where everyone turns to him to save the day.

I feel like the only hope left for him is that he learns to control his grass sword arm, just so that he has a special power that can put him in the same league with the others.
>>
>>77504811
Fanfiction tier writing
>>
>>77504821
Marcy saying she would poop herself if Finn killed the final boss before him pretty much sums it up I think.
>>
>>77504377
8/10, Finn could've done more, but considering I wasn't expecting him to show up at all, I'm satisfied.

I'm actually excited for new AT episodes, for the first time in years.
>>

All we can do is pray for the writers to have a change of heart towards him. Otherwise the kid's fucked for all eternity because they A) Resent him B) Don't feel like writing his character good anymore or C) Actually think this shit dragging on for way too long is actually helping him

As much as I enjoyed myself, I probably would've enjoyed myself a lot more if you didn't leak. And a hell of a lot of people got spoiled because people have been posting spoilers on the internet where they weren't expected

>>77505033
We're all going to watch the episodes anyway, why not watch them as soon as possible?
>>
>>77505064
I'm willing to let it slide. Mrceline's been low-tier for a long time now, despite all the powers she got to show off over the mini-series. So they fed her a stable of jobber to mid-tier threats that they could have written Finn to take care of if they wanted. Hell, Crunchy took out one.Still nice that she considered that Finn could kill the cloud before she got the chance.

It actually feels kinda wrong being ahead of everyone else, especially when an event is being made out of it like this.

I can't not download a leak when I find out about it because I need to be up to date with the discussion that's going on here, but I can't then go "well that's what 4chan thinks of it, let's see what the rest of the common internet thinks of it", I have to wait a week.

But also, when it leaks so close to the actual airdate it makes it feel extra pointless.
>>
>>77495313
are people really surprised the [spoilers] status quo [/spoilers] is back? i mean for fuck's sake guys this is S7, to expect things to suddenly start changing is kinda stupid. this is the show's style has been for a while now.
>>
>>77505301
Talkbacks for AT are typically empty these days. The series just doesn't have the pull it used to. Besides, nothing truly significant happened anyway and things went back to the status quo.
>>
>>77505356
Are you just watching the show to see what other people think about it?

Sugar loved Finn a lot, she let him open himself up to shit and he was competent as fuck under her wing (ripping the Lich apart, beating the fuck out of gladiator ghosts, womping one shot bad guys all the time), Sugar just liked writing everyone else too.

Whatever you say chump, I'd argue otherwise but you seem to be pretty set in your personal beliefs. The pilot provides some good contrast though.

If you think about it, it`s weary sad. PB never liked him romantically, he never met his mom, his dad is a stupid idiot who dosen`t care about his own son and cost him an arm, FP dumped him and is banging CB, he is the only human left, his mentor and friend was killed by the Lich.

Being Finn is suffering.

Maybe because there hasn't been much shipping fuel since then. As the part 5 + 6 leaks proved, shipping shit is like throwing gasoline in the fire. And Stakes included like the biggest shipping thing to happen since Burning Low or whatever, the talkbacks would have been glorious.
>>
>>77505690
Jake's probably got some higher purpose malarkey coming up in the future. Finn's been sidelined pretty heavily for a while now. I think they thought him taking down Orgalorg would win him enough heat to still be taken seriously, but it was pretty sloppy and Orgalorg was never the focus anyway, they put all the emphasis on the comet.
>>
>>77505651
No, I don't like staring at cringey people's faces. I'm the kind of person that gets caught up in hype threads on 4chan

Pretty sad that a show titled adventure time has to rely on speculative romantic pairings to get any discussion going.
>>
>>77505769
>higher purpose malarkey

Only two times that happened is when he was convinced that he needed to die, and when he had to come to grips with the whole fatherhood thing and both of those lasted for all of an episode before going back to regular old Jake.
>>
>>77505690
That`s why he`s still alive. If he didn`t have Jake to share all the adventures with he would have no one...
>>
It's really weird how Finn is like Superman from the Justice League cartoons where his power level goes all over the place, and some episodes he can beat a demon into submission with his fists and in others he gets defeated by like, a squirrel.
Consistency is crazy man.

>the "theme song" pretty much spells that right the fuck up

and yet people still somehow expect shit to drastically change and become totally different. god damn do people even watch this show before coming here and shitposting? if anything, the status quo is less severe now than it was in the first seasons.

as for the whole "finns a beta now" shit, give the poor guy a rest, he's Luke Skywalker except instead of redeeming himself at the last second and giving his life, his father just became an even huger faggot to the point Finn couldn't even be angry at him anymore.
>>
>>77505916
His dad being a disappointing mess without answering any real questions was definitely a low point of the show. Guess we'll have to wait for his mom to show up out of the blue and explain shit to us.
>>
>>77505528
His mind and behaviour haven't changed at all. In fact, id argue he's even more retarded now than he was when he was 12.
>>
>>77505980
With all the plot dropping about the humans crossing the sea, seems like that might be where she is located. Finn may have to make an epic quest to a very distant land. That, or it was Susan all along.
>>
>>77505916
I was expecting her to go back to being a vampire but I wasn't expecting PB going back to the CK so soon, or her shack getting blown up. I don't mind though, it was just so sudden and brutal. I actually like how bittersweet it feels
>>
>>77505916
>and yet people still somehow expect shit to drastically change and become totally different.
PB back on the throne is also a big part of why people feel this way

I don't think anyone expected Marceline to stay a non-vampire, but the finale went ahead and status-quo'd not only the mini-series but even stuff that happened before it. It's like a big fuck you to the poor fools who were suckered into thinking things might actually be happening

I knew it was only a matter of time, especially after marcy got poisoned and KOO got straight kicked in the face. I just hope they really focus on how PB proceeds as a ruler again rather than just sidelining her again and occasionally referencing the fact that she's a beloved dictator to her people.
>>
The final episode was kind of dissapointing, but that ep 7 scene with all the gang in PB's shack in the morning with Marceline having breakfast was comfy as fuck.
>>
>>77506101
There were hints in ep 5 and 6 that PB was going to get her kingdom back.
>>
>>77505438
>beating the fuck out of gladiator ghosts
that episode was fucking based.

Sugar was great at, you know, adventure. When she tried.

I doubt it, the citizens will probably have a we thought you were bad but he was so much worse mentality. And the banana guards aren't funny.
>>
>>77506156
And then pepbutt and jake beefed it
>>
>>77506101
It was always evident that KOO was in power for the sole reason that PB wanted to take a break from the whole kingdom running thing, I had just hoped would have taken a little longer if only because KOO's antics are fantastic.
>>
>>77506193
Sugar that making Finn a pathetic little piece of garbage isn't really fun to watch in any way. Give him flaws other than being a pathetic mess; first seasons had it right since he could beat up most anything but was also naive, arrogant at times, and had a narrow world view so he wasn't perfect.Watching some plucky kid beat the shit out of stuff is a lot more fun than seeing him drown in spaghetti mixed with his own tears.
I don't know why the other writers don't realize this. Maybe it's just easier on them this way or something.
>>
>>77505654
Being more of a stick in the mud doesn't mean much. His outlook is the same, he's just less energetic. If there was purposeful growth going on she would be more interesting than before, not less. The writers think depowering him somehow constitutes growth but they have no idea what to do with him.

Plus of course, at 17 he should look different. Until they change that it's never gonna be legit.
>>
>>77506220
Tyrannical as she is, she loves her citizens. That's why she's like that. Gotta keep a tight handle on her little idiots if she wants them to be safe

Perhaps a diet of constant junkfood has stunted his growth. He'll be petite forever.

I feel like Adventure Time is all just a corroborative effort to avoid giving good characters the stories they deserve.
I guess there's always the tiny amount of good fanfics for that.
>>
>>77506276
The guy writers are too afraid of letting him be truly sad, because they think it makes him look like a pussy. But he needs to express emotion to get his shit together. Sugar's female perspective allowed him to power his issues so he could get back to being strong.

Same thing in Steven Universe. Is Steven mopey and worthless all the time? No. But sometimes he does get upset and acts "girly".

is there a chance that will change with the new puss they added to the team?
they seem to be all over Bubbline but they have to write Finn at some point (I think)
>>
>>77506035
Significantly. When he was 12 he had some superhuman paladin wisdom and now he's simply a regular moderately retarded teen.
>>
>>77506669
Really, I thought he was some cute kid who wore a thimble when he got a splinter, was terrified of the ocean and had a naive view of good vs. evil
>>
>>77506669
Sounds pretty accurate for puberty.
>>
>>77496697
>Adventure Time
>Any sort of development at all.
>>
>>77505690
Exactly. The show used to understand that. If it didn't insist on shoving all the sad circumstances of his existence in our faces, he would be just fine. Life is dangerous and risky, but adventurous and free. Adventure that's the life for me, there's lollipop trees and a lemonade sea...
>>
>>77506758
He's way past puberty, according to them. He's lost many positive traits and gained no new ones, unless [staring blankly] turns you on.
>>
Whats with you guys? The ending was pretty bittersweet. It was not an happy ending for any of them. Everything stays but there was a lot of changes as well. I mean think about it. They could of all been hanging out together in the end, like that scene in ep 7, but in the end they can't have that because they all have a duty and future. Its basically showing us all the characters are growing up and walking different paths.
>>
Remember that one time Finn tore the Lich's fucking face apart with a sweater?
>>
>>77506953
A severely underpowered lich who was still easily the largest threat they had ever faced? Yeah, that was good times. Finn and probably the rest of existence only survived their last encounter on a fluke.
>>
>>77506739
I don't see much evidence his view of good and evil is more nuanced now. It just doesn't come up as much because he's not such an active hero who constantly confronts the issue.

btw his sword technically fixed his fear of the ocean for him, remember? it was random and meaningless.
>>
>>77506952
That's a lot of hot air for everything going back to square one. Don't kid yourself.

8 o'clock. So 2 hours from now.
The next Adventure Time thread should be the livethread.
>>
>>77507066
Man I had forgotten how ticked off that made me, why the fuck would you do that? Being scared of the ocean was an interesting little character trait that was horrendously underused (even Ward thought so) and the third fucking time you bring it up in the entire goddamn series it gets stabbed and poofs from existence. I hope he at least still has a lingering awkwardness around the ocean so that it's not completely purged.

Is this their idea of developing Finn? Fuck off writers Jesus Christ, just have him stab his daddy and lady issues too if that's how you're gonna handle it.
>>
>>77496609
Where was that from?

I just watched all of the stakes. all of them.

Have there been any episodes with Finn, Jake, PB and Marcy all together before this?

It's cool to have the whole gang all adventuring together like this.

I'd like to see an episode(s) with the four of them and maybe Ice King trekking somewhere

I kinda want to ask Jesse what in the hell possessed him to write that. It pissed me off too. Such a waste of potential from out of fucking nowhere.

I really wished that they discussed the whole mortality aspect Marceline was struggling with. Death was something that seemed like an alluring escape to her, but as well, it was an unknown she was terrified of. I think that would have gone very well with her last discussion with the Vampire King.

I too really hoped they'd expand on this with how nonchalantly she accepted her impending mortality at the start of it. All of that and they never once explained why she actually wanted to ditch the vampire thing.
>>
>>77507316
dude's probably so high he doesn't even remember.

it was probably their way of remembering "holy shit Finn has a fear of the ocean that we've done literally nothing with in 4 years" so they wanted to make it important and kind of dramatic but at the same time wanted to get ride of a plot that was more annoying than useful as they viewed it. that wasn't even an issue though since they threw Finn in water all the time, it was always just a convenient huge lake and not an actual ocean.

yep, that's how you do character development gang, just brutally destroy character quirks for literally no reason, this is how you make more interesting, nuanced people for audiences to watch.

Season 4 is when it started. PB became magical sci/tech girl who can do no wrong, and Marcy became sad drama girl who everyone loves.

I feel like Bubblgum is now the main character in the writers' eyes.

>they never once explained why she actually wanted to ditch the vampire thing.
Because she couldn't reach her umbrella

I've no problem with increased Gum in the show, she's at least more fun than Marceline (and Flame Princess)

"You think I'm nice!" 'Blush'.

Looked like a retro picture book to me. The animation made me fuckin nauseous though.

she's more like light blue.

and did you really expect her to not be with half demon blood in her?

people are either bipolar or never actually watched any AT to begin with and somehow expect something that hasn't happened in 7 seasons to happen now.

Hell, let Finn randomly wear modern clothes like all the other characters seem to be doing lately. It'd be something at least.

to be fair, we may see her crownless again, if they devote an episode to her overthrowing the cookie guy.
