Now that we won't get any new episodes until probably december I think it's time to talk about the so far released S7 episodes. What's your honest opinion on them? Is it a good start after S6 or did it get worse? Also rate the five first episodes and Stakes!
>>
>>77597368
Overall shit mini. Only episodes worth any attention are 1, 5 and 7.
>>
>>77597368
I really loved Stakes. Top notch humor and fun adventures, the ending was a bit underwhelming though and the weird Marceline rap in episode 4 was shit. Overall 8/10 though, I hope they'll make another miniseries in S8.

The normal episodes so far are okay, definitely better than much of S5.2 and S6. There's still a lot of possibilities left out though. Also KOO best character
>>
>>77597368
Definitely better than most of the episodes in S6, really love the sense of adventure in this one.

However, I feel like there is some stuff that felt too much fan-service-ous, like some dumb pandering scenes that is bread for the MarcyXPB romantic relationship theory. Also, I wish other vampires got the same amount of characterization like they did for Vampire King. They get really shadowed by his personality.

The only real offender is the last episode though. Really rushed ending for the mini-series.

I have literally not watched Adventure Time for a good 2 years now.

I didn't like how they didn't do killscreens for the last few vampires. Also, didn't they completely skip one of the vampires? What's up with that
>>
>>77597602
Well, the Vampire King hasn't exactly been killed like the other vampires. His essence is still inside Marceline's mind, while his body is now a generic lion.
>>
>>77597602
>>77597657
oh fuck I'm wrong. I completely skipped "Take Her Back".

You'll like it if you miss the fun adventures from the former seasons but also enjoy with the slightly grounded characterization from the latter seasons.

You will not like if you are expecting answers to Marceline's past. Some stuff about her past are still unknown.
Now that I think about it, we still don't know why she is named "Vampire Queen". Could have been a lot better in this regard.

S6 had a shitty arc and is forgettable now that it seems to be a closed arc. PB lost her kingdom at the end of S6 and it's the only actually important thing. The miniseries are about Marcy wanting to not be a vampire anymore and everything going terribly wrong.

What we've seen of S7 and the mini was a direction for the better, I'll say that much.
I'd like to point out that you will always hear disappointing things about Adventure Time these days, but in pointing that out I'm not saying to totally dismiss them. The mini's humorous and there's some action to enjoy, but Marceline's drama can be meh if you've stopped caring.
They're doing a reshowing of the whole thing tonight, but if you want to get it over with:

It's great for an Adventure Time mini-series, not so much for a Marceline mini-series. There is no real impact to the events happening during the mini-series, even when she apparently loses all of her powers it never felt like the big series that would define Marceline as a character.

Most of the episodes are about the gang hanging around hunting down vampires, and while the characters and situations are pretty fun it doesn't have the emotional impact or convincing storytelling I was expecting from it.

And I'm not even talking about the last episode. I'm starting to feel like the writers find genuine satisfaction in writing half-assed stories with the most unsatisfying, anti-climatic endings for the most interesting plot arcs.

It isn't, but it still explains well the actual situation. Then again I'm one of those people who thinks /co/ in general gives too many fucks about "status quo" to the point they don't even know what it means.
>>
>>77598376
It is an explanation. The whole kicking off point of the mini was that "everything sucks for Marceline" and then there's "nothing ever changes", with the song ending showing that even despite things being "samey" things still change. It's a satus quo, but a different status quo.
>>
>>77598309
My point wasn't even about status quo.
>>
>>77597368
I mean its better than season 6 I guess, but that doesn't say much.

This show completely lacks direction and everyone tries to pull characters in different ways but since no one is in charge to say how the characters and story will develop we just end up going no where
>>
The ending was pretty shit.
Ok, I can understand wanting to make Marceline a vampire again. I can understand the pull of the status quo, even if it is pretty shitty.

But they did it in a real shitty way.
The last second
>jk a formerly incorporeal cloud of evil grows fangs
Fuck you.

If they wanted to status quo, she should have Jesus'd it and willingly absorbed the evil cloud, knowing it would vampire her again.

You people seem to have missed something important
The Vampire King can possibly exert his will using Marceline now, or at the very least may have a Green Goblin relationship
Or maybe it was always there.
We haven't seen him until now, so I think the former is a bit more likely - his consciousness dwells within hers.
Sort of like Sora and Roxas/Ven/Kairi/Whoever else that guy carried I guess.

This.

God, I loved each one of the vampires.

Who is your favorite /co/?

I like Hierophant and Sister Moon, hell,, even the Fool seemed fun.

Why the Hierophant had to die ;-; ?
>>
>>77599424
Heirophant was my favorite by far. Awesome powers, cool design, his old fashioned vamp gimmick was fun and led to his thematically appropriate death and he had the most character depth to him out of all the bats besides the King. Super interesting guy.

I also think the Empress is underrated though, I fucking loved when she was all "You know he was happier when he was serving me" to Marcy.

Moon had the worst death, holy crap that was dumb and lazy. One f the lowest points of Stakes for me.

>This song is based off an early memory of losing a stuffed animal, a black rabbit. I found it a year later, laying on it’s back in the garden. The sun had faded it’s underside, so that it now had a white belly. It wasn’t better, or worse, just different. It was the first time I realized that things will change no matter what, even if they’re left alone, and stay completely still.
>>
>>77599424
I found every vampire on its own great, even the Fool with the stereotypical black voice and the chicken eating joke cracked me up. My favourite would be the Hierophant or VK too, although the latter one really had a GOAT tier class and style. I really hope the writers will use VK again, now that he is kind of an inner voice.

I also loved the Hierophants old fashioned style, it was refreshing to see him in midst of the new world. Kind of like I always thought real vamps would act if they appeared nowadays between all these modern vampire pictures. Also

They are the kind of people who would do it, and there a a fucking lot of things that could be expanded on them, like their origins - are all of them human? - how was Simon relationship with the Empress? There is so much potential!

At the same time, I feel that it would be better to keep the mystery of them, and dont go deep on it.

The Vampire King is inside of her head, and will probably have some sort of impact on the future.Also now we have an expanded background regarding the world, and the characters motivations.

We know that Marcy killed vampires many years ago and in which conditions, and helped the last humans to escape to another continent - the same humans that would originate Martin and Finns mon. This will probably be vital on future episodes.

We had the death of the King of OOO, which is a signal of the end of an arc, showing the evolution of PB.

Considering that these episodes aired at the beggining of the season, I feel that they will build something bigger to the end.

Also, its obvious that Marcy, and in lesser scale PB were changed by the experience - now we have to see if the storyboarders will be able to keep the consistence of it. I dont know...but this season seems more consitent on tone so far, than previous seasons.
>>
>>77601362
I wasn't saying nothing changed, I was just saying that specific moment could have meant something to her character if they had made it a choice instead. I just would have liked that better in particular.

Hey all. It's a Hanbok, a traditional Korean dress worn for super formal occasions, most notably weddings and funerals.

The funeral ones are always white though. Only the wedding ones are colorful or have flowers.

No >implying, just facts.

>>77601562
Of course PB wears the pink one, she's PB.
>>
>>77601562
I'm not into Bubbline but if that's implying Lady dressed PB up all nice for her and Marcy's lesbo wedding (or whatever happened in that dream segment) I am totally okay with that.
Mainly cause I fucking love Lady Rainicorn.

I don't see why PB would be giving half a shit about Korean culture though.

>>77601609

Hum....actually, PB said that she would be the one to burry Marceline when she would be about to die.

The butler was digging her cove.

Marcelinne was old, and was going to die, the dress carry a double meaning - maybe PB just used it for the funeral, or she choose to use it to marry Marcy, before she died, and them use it for the funeral too on a sigle strike.
>>
>>77601609
The whole show has this weird undercurrent of Korean culture. Like how literally everybody except Finn can understand Rainicorn, and how the most likely Jake-descended spacefaring race in that Graybles ep all spoke Korean.

Also a bunch of other shit I can't be assed to remember right now.

When do you think adventure time's coming off hiatus? Season 7 hasn't been a great improvement over 6, but I'm still super hyped.

Burying someone is actually a very emotional and intimate thing to do. Its usually love ones that would do such a thing.

The mini series was centered marceline's existential crisis. In addition the whole special had to capture 5 additional main characters to focus on AND attempt to capture some sort nuance with each vampire. That in mind, I feel they did pretty good with the time they had.
Also, Finn's existential crisis arch was a huge part of the last season, so they probably didnt want to bore the kids anymore then they had to.

Bonnie reacted really weirdly when first hearing about KOO performing the wedding ceremony though, like if there was much more behind it. It could be true if she acted like this after the barely but yet fully legal election, but the whole wedding episode actually kills the simplicity.

Finn and Jake seemed pretty superfluous to Stakes, they could have cut them and characterized the vamps more.

I wouldn't really care if I wasn't that much into Fubblegum, especially since Pajama War. I really hope Finn's gonna get a good girl now that he's leaving the worst part of puberty.

I was actually just reading on TVTropes about how each vampire's name relates to both their personalites and their defeats.

Also, the Vampire King's design relates him to the Devil card.
>>
>>77603032
I fully acknowledge that this has been validly said about almost every bubbline episode, despite my liking of that ship, BUT:

I really got more of a "friends" vibe from their interactions in Pajama War.

Either way, it made me feel great. That was literally the first example EVER of Finn and PB having something resembling a healthy, friendly relationship.

The "staring emotionally at each other" scene toward the end is the only REALLY shippy moment in the ep. I personally justified that as being the light of the setting sun from the projection reflecting in their eyes. Either way, that scene looked like that on purpose, so maybe there's something to it, idk.

I'm making a "my guesses" sheet in gimp right now. Seems like they put they put a lot of thought into this. My knowledge of tarot is only from the binding of isaac, so it aint gonna be perfect.
The newest ones I saw were I think the evil cloud Monster has to do with the Tower, and marcie's super-saiyan literally covers her in stars, so that probably has to do with the Stars.

People tend to think the structure of the tower's the focus of The card, but it's actually the disaster striking the tower and the ensuing damage. Think of it as the catastrophe card.

Honestly, with the mini series and the episodes before it (aside from maybe Bonnie and Neddy, but that's forgivable since it was a heavy lore ep) this is the best the series has been in a while.
That of course isn't saying much, but I at least feel comfortable with the new direction the series is going.

Something I'm not quite sure about... was vampire king genuine, or did he have some kind of plan for his essence to escape and cause hella chaos? WHY was his essence so damned powerful when it wasn't when that same essence (plus four others) came outta marcy? and why was it treated like such a dramatic thing for marcy to reabsorb it when she's been holding onto it for centuries and knows there's no trouble taking it in?

I did not think Season 6 was a s bad as people say. I actually liked that they were more experimental and tried different things, even though sometimes they didn't always stick the landing.I like how real they show Finn's dad to be, along with the things they did with prismo and Finn's grass sword. I don't like how they copped out of the arm thing though. The Tower had some pretty cool visuals and believe it or not, I really liked Food Chain, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it certainly is mine. Jake's origin story was pretty cool. Everything's Jake, Jermaine, On the Lam, were interesting concepst though the episode weren't the best, not bad thiough. I liked the Dentist, Dark Purple, Walnuts & Rain, and Astral Plane. The whole comet story arc though I hated how underwhelming the finale was. Oh and I really liked the Graybles episode. Also, I actually like KOO.
>>
>>77599424
Wait, so does hierophant have some sort of relationship with Jake? You know because of all the shape-shift powers, maybe the alien that made jake's father pregnant that's a sentence I've never thought I would make had something to do with vamps

I also think s6 is not that bad but many people dropped the show because of it and ratings where the lowest out of all seasons.
Jesse Moyniham nearly killed this show , now that he is out of the team, Adventure Time is slowly recovering
>>
>>77604885
The main reason for the lower ratings and overall loss of interest was CN's highly inconsistent airing schedule and complete lack of advertising though. S6 wasn't as good as the previous seasons, but the huge majority of people still liked it nonetheless.
>>
>>77604885
I still don't get the Moynihan hate. I really like a lot of his episodes. Where else are you going to find complex references to Hellenic mysticism in a kids cartoon show?

Something Big was a steaming pile of shit, but I like most of the other ones of his that I know are his.

Jesse projected himself into Finn to think about solve his own personal problems. As much as I loved a lot of his earlier episodes there's a reason why people hate him for what he did during S6.
>>
>>77605001
He turned Finn into a beta by projecting himself into the cartoon and wrote much pretentious pseudo philosophical shit during S6. He did good episodes before but his recent ones are just hideous. And I'm not even talking about Breezy
>>
>>77603645
I would have been totally okay if they were like Ice King and Peppermint Butler, kind of sidekicks to Marceline and PB who show up and help pout for two or three episodes.

That would have been much better than them being part of every episode but dong very little in the grand scheme of things. Quality of appearances over quantity of them and all that.
>>
>>77605033
Ah. S6 is a bit of a blur for me. I remember The Mountain being his. Once again, that whole episode is a reference to Alistair Crowley shit.

>>77605055
Oh, is Breezy one of his? Well I guess that one makes sense. I can see why 4chan denizens would hate that one, though I liked it a lot. It felt like he was having kind of a fucked up emotional growth. It called up a lot of questions about how hard some of the things he's seemed to brush off actually affected him.

Like, not all good character development is in a positive direction, you know?
>>
>>77605001
He was ok when he was just a storyboarder i actually really like some of his episodes, like The Suitor of example.
But giving him creative control in the whole season was definietly a mistake

He still is a storyboarder, individual boarders just have a hugely disproportionate influence in this show.

The Mountain is one of the best S6 episodes though, as it didn't pass as pretentious our outright dumb. It had good humor and, for S6 standards a fine deeper meaning.

Stakes and the rest of season 7 reaffirmed that the Adventure Time hate train is bullshit. There were genuinely hilarious moments and surprisingly affecting ones too, with great character moments peppered in between.

Glad the Mountain is getting so much love, aside from Is That You that's by far some of the best Jesse episodes from the past season.

Aside from the cool setting, interesting creatures and whatever Matthew was, and some good humor, it had some good Finn/Lemongrab interaction, something I would not have expected from Adventure Time in a million years. I hope they hang out again at some point.

He did. But they both got in the way of his job

The only way they could have fixed that plot point is if they actually made Asami a villain

A sociopath who bundles all her hate and anger to the point where her brain snaps and she goes on a psychotic rampage

so is this the beginning of an at renaissance or just another nail in the coffin?

The Fool and King didn't seem to have any malicious agenda after their revival. The fool unlike the others was the only vamp that stayed with the King.

Out of them those two seemed more like they considered Marceline as a friend than anything. Even the first time the Fool was killed he was just playing a game with her. He wasn't even killing people for blood, when we saw him he was in a blood truck, and he said prior to that, that he lost his fang on a box turtle. She was going to kill a rabbit to eat.

I mean the others she more had a reason to kill. Moon seemed evil as hell, Empress messed with Simon and ate loads of people, and Hierophant was determined to eat all of the remaining humans.

I do wonder what the vamp kings first offer was to Marceline. She said that she already rejected him. Possible that he offered for her to be his Queen.

Someone here linked to that a while back. It's a track from one of the official AT games.

Not Olivia Olson singing, but she probably couldn't sing this well anyway.

she seems to have the talent to pull shit like that, but seems kind of an airhead

I'm suspicious that that shit rap song was her idea

He is in her head though. I wouldn't mind him coming back. VK is amazing.

Nah, I get the feeling the shit rap song was Somvilay Xayaphone. Something about him and his stuff radiates that he's a shit person with shit tastes. His episodes are fine, so I don't really know what I'm basing that on.

Anyway, Olson's weird for me. I love her voice, but I don't think she's a very good voice actor. Same way some singers have amazing voices but they suck at singing. Except Olson's fine at singing.

I just can't really imagine her jiving with a hard rock/metal type setup. Hasn't everything she's sung for the show been pretty chill?

Remembrance ruined everything for Masami. I would never forgive the writers. He clearly liked her and yet they made him say "We weren't really dating"

That was harsh of me. Thing is, even though a lot of his episodes are cool and funny, there always seems to be this undercurrent of shitty ideas and shitty tastes in his episodes. Does that even make sense?
