Why is he allowed to be happy, and with a girl, while Finn and Dipper Pines only exist to get shat on?
>>78501613
Finn: annoying and dumb
Dipshit: dorky, socially awkward, wuss
Gumball: fun, energetic, optimistic, loyal and supportive
>>78501613
They have the same age.
>>78501613
Because Ben decides "To let Gumball happy for once". I am not sure is this a good reason for that. Personally, we have to wait and see how the team establishes the pairing.
>>78501613
Gumball went after someone his own age for one.
>>78501613
Because cis-het white males don't deserve to be happy. And because Gumball not only is a blue cat boy, he's also quite girly, which to tumblr means he's working to expel all that toxic masculinity out of his body.
Because Ben would rather let kid characters be kids and be happy together with their cute simplistic dating lives than try and make them into wannabe Degrassi drama scenarios for the hipster crowd.
>>78501613
Becuause only blues get the girl
Dipper better get together with Pacifica or I'ma go crazy.
>>78501950
Rigby's not a girl.
>>78501958
Why does everyone want Dipper to be with that fem Draco Malfoy.
>>78501641
Steven is whiiiiiiiite
>>78501613
Because Gumball has competent writers.
>>78501983
Well I can't argue with that
>>78501613
in case you haven't noticed, Gumball basically exists to be a weird fucking show that does what nobody else does
unfortunately it's SO random and meaningless that it's kinda unwatchable for me. Nothing matters, no point in any of the episodes. Not really very funny, usually more mean-spirited or sad
>>78502253
yeah but his woman is the man in the relationship
>>78502361
Eat shit.
>>78501892
This.
>>78501613
The Amazing World of Gumball isn't fueled by drama, Adventure Time and Gravity Falls are.
The show can afford to let Gumball get the girl. Finn and Dipper have to suffer to develop their characters.
>>78503037
That's an interesting way to put it, never thought about it that way.
>>78503037
I hate how they have to have a gallon of piss and shit dumped onto them for the sake of development. Havd the us reachable girl and try to make them creeps. Way to go writers.
>>78502401
Also its fans are dicks.
People still watch Adventure Time? Not trying to sound like an ass but im surprised. Did the plot go anywhere after the Lich got BTFO by time paradox bs?I Remember You is still the best episode I've seen, is there another one like it?
>>78501692
Gumball is also gay. But I don't think Penny mind's since married Gumball and Darwin.
>>78503415
Show is shit. Every episode that introduces something gets undone the next. The show is stuck in a loop of nothing.
>>78501613
Because girls like nice idiots more then they like smart idiots or adventurous idiots
I mean nice idiots ain't going to tell their girl friend that the ice king is talking carp about them or fall for some girl he ain't never going to get but holds out anyway because of reasons
>>78503415
Mostly what >>78503494 said. Killing off characters means nothing now because they just bring them back from the dead over nothing. All that shit aboutFinn's armbeing foreshadowed for like the entire series is undone after like 5 episodes. Everything that's happened since early season 5 is either undone after enough time or completely meaningless.
>>78503656
So it went from a show that could have had an interesting story and characters to a status quo show?
Because Gumball is actually a cartoon that doesn't use drama garbage and "lore" to be fun.
>>78502401
>comfyfag
Your opinion doesn't matter and is literally shit.
>>78503761
Yeah, which is weird. It feels like it switched over just as things were most interesting.
Wouldn't even mind if the episodes were at least funny enough, but the season 6 stuff doesn't even compare to seasons 1 and 2.
>>78501641
But as a half-gem, isn't Steven like some kind of super-minority?
>>78501958
There's been more development on the Wendip front post-Mystery Mansion then anything suggesting a Padippica endgame.
Penny isn't a total bitch. If Gumball were like the other 2, he'd be trying to date Rachel or one of his bitchy classmates like Masami. He likes the girl who is actually nice and she likes him back, rather than him forcing himself on a girl who barely tolerates him.
Old news for the people who have visited Gumball thread, but, look at it. (That Ben is Ben, just to make it clear)

Flame Princess is the same age as Finn too.
>>78504592
>>78504043
I like how Ben kept Gumball and Penny together and didn't break them apart because of drama. Even if he did I bet he'd pull it off better than the hacks over at AT would.
>>78504592
Speaking of Flame Princess and her breakup with Finn, I heard the biggest reason for the breakup had to do with the writers ran out of ideas after Rebecca Sugar left the development team, and, that person (http://adventuretime.wikia.com/wiki/Luke_Pearson) took the chance to write the story.
Long Story short, it is more up to how authors have any ideas to make things interesting, but the breakup is one possible result. When the writers ran out of ideas, a lot of things can happen.
Adventure Time fags coming out swinging to defend their character.
>>78504671
Aka. The same fucking thing that happened when they tried to do 13 year old PB.
Oh, but they suddenly have a fuckton of ideas when it comes to Bubblegum and Marceline baka.
>>78503896
>Men Dumb & Vaginas Smart.
Not really, The waterson in general are fuck ups.
Anais is social autist
The Mom works at a shit job, and has a man child husband. As well anger issues, and to much pride.
Granny JoJo fucked a rat, was ditched and cause of this feared her son would do the same and made him a literal retard.
>>78504653
If he changes his mind. He better to make thing clear and concise. Or else, we have gonna have similar situations in Regular Show and Adventure Time, their drama sagas literally pushed any other supporting characters aside, and the result was really nothing in return. It is really unfair to other supporting characters.
>>78504738
>I want him to be unhappy and not be a kid
>I want her to dump him despite her accepting his faults
>Fuck gumball he needs to suffer to develop
The same thing they did with Finn and Dipper you cunt
>>78504723
Correct. In bottomline, the writers are the one in control. Remember what happened to Stan and Wendy in south park during earlier seasons? Exactly, no one expected the breakup, neither people expected they are back together.
>>78504738
Thar won't happen.
If anything, it would be the other way around.
>>78504919

>>78504919
Something does happened in S4, not Penny related, but her dad instead. (http://theamazingworldofgumball.wikia.com/wiki/The_Apprentice)
By the way, Gumball fails miserably in this episode.
>all these people wanting the MC's to be sad husks of shit

You are not helping your case.
>>78505822
Absolutely disgusting.
>>78506130
Because nothing matters in Gumball. Alternatively, because Penny is very patient with his stupidity. Do you really think she will always be happy with him?
I don't understand why people rate "being happy with a girl" as so fucking important for fictional characters who are still young that they start bitching as soon as it isn't a pairing forever. Makes them sound dumb.
Because conflict creates stories and satisfaction doesn't. Learn how to write anon
>>78506149
Because, anon, those people have too many leisure time.
>>78505323
Woolie is Finn, Liam is Flame Princess
>>78503788
I think one thing we have to remember is that they are 12 years old.
Relationships are easy as kids. There are no expectations. No financial struggles. No responsibilities. Penny just wants someone sincere and affectionate. Gumball fulfills that role.
It might cause trouble down the road (although I don't think he will be as bad as his father), but kids don't think that far ahead.
>>78501613
Because Gumball is outgoing and fun to be around. Finn and Dipper are both awkward and immediately pull themselves into the friendzone with any girl they meet.
Thinking back to elementary school and jr high, do you remember the one popular guy who was stupid but every girl fucking loved him and you never understood why? That's Gumball.
Finn and Dipper are more like you. Social fuckups who don't know how to have a normal conversation with a girl and much less even ask a girl out on a date. But you still don't know why you never get the girl, while the stupid asshole gets everyone.
>>78507294
Kinda true, excepts Gumball is not popular, but you gots the asshole part right. Gumball and even Darwin can be some nasty jerks at time.
Because Gumball's an asshole. The fact that he's with someone his own age is also a good point.
>>78505616
Well, compare to other females (chin, bamboo, t-rex, cactus, ice cream, CGI creature, cloud, and a sauropod dinosaur), the paper cutout bear is more bearable, just like the emo ghost you posted in your post.
>>78507960
>implying the T-rex isn't maximum qt
>>78508193
That because no one appreciate the potential. Sure, people have so many times on shapeshifter, cat, ghost, paper, and rabbit. That is a good thing. Fewer fans, fewer competition.
Gravity Falls and Adventure Time have become slaves to the opinion of the most shrill aspects of their respective fandoms, and while a lot of the blame is towards the staff for throwing them bones and interacting with them more than they should, they probably had no idea how goddamn insane they'd get when it comes to policing the opinions on how either show should go and/or stomping "problematic" shipfags
Tumblr-localized segments (i.e. the most vocal) have decreed that Finn and Dipper getting with Wendy and Bubblegum would only placate the imaginary MRA's they believe watch the show, as it would spread the VERY incorrect opinion that if you like a girl with ambiguous romantic feelings towards you, that the next course of action should involve something direct and/or thought-out, or at the very least, something other than throwing your hands in the air screaming "welp", because that's dangerously-close to rape. That fedoranalysis shit also spread to Soos after Soos and the Real Girl aired, and it was just as fucking divorced from what was actually happening with the characters as well
>>78508374
True, if Gumball teams listen to the fanbases. There will be likely an emo ghost join the romance thing. I still remembered vividly someone edited the Gumball wiki that Carrie has feeling on Gumball. Like......When?
So the vibe I'm getting is that show creators should stop bending their knee to the whims of their fans. I would be very much on board with this, as both SJWs and their opposing factions usually just turn things for the worse regardless of who wins.
Because Gumball is not a fuck up like Finn.
>>78508374
That sounds both deliberate and malicious, I'd prefer to believe it was due to negligence and/or incompetence
>>78506149
When it's done shitily and drags down the character for nothing then yes it's a valid complaint
>>78510847
I think that are people want to defend their ships. If that wasn't "the romantic", Penny could become another flame princess any day. Seriously, not that many people care about Penny until she becomes a shapeshifter and dating with Gumball.
>>78512739
>Penny could become another flame princess any day
pls no
>>78512817
That is the point. Regardless of people saying how good she is, she still needs characterization to become acceptable, and that is not just her, the same principles apply to other characters too. If Penny still not receiving any characterization besides dating with Gumball or teasing Tobias, Penny could eventually become a fanservice to shippers, not a character.
>>78503871
Honestly, Mabel would probably be all over Dipper going after Pacifica. At least initially

Well, to be fair he did become a girl once.
Apparently if you become female, even if only temporarily, Tumblr is on your side.
The only people they hate are white men, gay men, white women, straight women, and non-white men. In that order from most to least.
>>78519757
Reminder that Tumblr is like 90% porn.
Probably a third dickgirl porn, a third femsub, and a third generic rule 34 and furry.
Shit, there's more dickgirl porn than there is angry feminists.
>>78504671
Why would they let some random guest boarder determine the break up of the main character and his gf?
That was what the entire staff wanted or else it sure as shit wouldn't have happened, at most Pearson affected stuff in Frost and Fire but it was always determined to happen that way.
>>78524139
Funny fact, a writer discussed with Pen a story about Jack breakup with Lady, and Pen refused the idea. So, there were discussions, but, good or bad? It depends.
>>78523222
>became a girl once
Stevonnie? That was either both genders or neither, and the crew hinted both.
Tumblr can make up all the terms and headcanons they want but when it comes down to math 1 + 1 = /d/.
>>78509306
>Gumball is not a fuck up
Do you even watch the show?
Because Gravity Falls and Adventure Time especially try to be melodramatic while Gumball excels in being a solely comedic and satirical family show.
>>78525258
Except Gumball can also have some screwup plot at time. "The downer" is pretty depressing for the show's standard.
Dipper had a chance with Candy, and he fucked it up.
>>78503415
>People still watch Adventure Time?
More so than Gumball that's for sure.
>>78503761
AT was never even about the story, retards like you just wanked off to the lore and when the show went upon doing its own thing shippers and lorefags got pissed and fucked off to Tumblr Universe.
>>78513872
What are you fucking kidding? He has his faults and he can be extremely petty and childinsh as he is a child, but he's been nothing but a nice guy. Gumbal in season 1 was more in line with the other characters than he now.

When the fuck did Dipper do anything like that?
>>78529435
he's talking about Finn
Well, at least they're not Mordecai.
>>78501613
Gumball has a bit of a spine. Finn does too but Gumball's writers aren't trying to rehash cliches
>>78529468
When the fuck did Finn do anything like that?
>>78529597
Hope you like to know what happened, my friend.
http://adventuretime.wikia.com/wiki/Frost_%26_Fire
>>78503500
No they don't. Are you like 12
>>78529597
the episode where he has dreams about Flame Princess and Iceking fighting
so he lies to them so they could fight, causing the ice kingdom to melt.
Basically Finn had a cuck dream and was so hot and bothered by it he made it come true
>>78529642
I'd actually prefer a summary on /co/, but It's fine if you don't feel like talking to other anons on here.
>>78529677
Cool, I was just lazy. Well, I think you know what happened. That time was not pleasant, especially the whole breakup things last for months to resolve, and......it fails.
>>78529672
Fuck, so all the ice kingdom stuff is dead and gone?
Where's Ice King staying now? Did he just build it again?
>>78529712
Ice king just stayed with Finn and Jake for some time while Gunther rebuilt the Kingdom
>>78529712
The kingdom is back. But the creatures......we don't know beside his penguins.
Gumball is a gag show. The others take their romance plots more seriously.
>>78529755
>Ice king just stayed with Finn and Jake for some time
That feels like a move a dying sitcom would try

>>78529889
>cinnamon bun with fire princessThat's actually kinda neat, if they did some "now i'm fully baked because of you" thing and not him inexplicably becoming a competent winner
>>78529895
It's just such a stupid and thoughtless concept. Was it by the same guy who wrote Betty? That ep is when I finally dropped the show.

> if they did some "now i'm fully baked because of you" thing and not him inexplicably becoming a competent winner
nope, just just "okay" for 1 episode and the returns to being a retard
>>78529924
They might want to "protect" Jack as the sidekick. Hell, before the breakup, some fans were so greedy that they wanted FP to replace Jack. Now, it doesn't matter, the show is in a chaos right now.
>>78506149
It's just a rarity and a nice thing. The temptation to make the MC whine and moan endlessly over >tfw no gf is apparently overwhelming. It creates an illusion of character development.
>>78529953
>They might want to "protect" Jack as the sidekick.
Yeah. But it was their choice to introduce FP in the first place. If they weren't so incompetent, she could have a significant role without replacing Jake.
Although realistically, a man's woman IS going to replace his brother as the most significant figure in his life -- if the relationship is serious, which it could have been because why not.
Either way, it just shows what terrible writers they are that they were afraid of this situation instead of excited by all the new possibilities.
>>78530088
Correct, and the good thing for Gumball and his gf is that the team does not want that, and the team takes many consideration. If AT's crew switch with Gumball's crew, things will be very different today.
>>78529920
>if they did some "now i'm fully baked because of you" thing and not him inexplicably becoming a competent winner
I think idea was to do the first. You know how much AT love to base plot developments off stupid jokes from years ago. But they didn't really explain it, so it was came off as the second. He's just better than Finn all of a sudden, and we're supposed to admire him for that and be relieved FP has the support of a worthy man. While Finn slits his own throat.
>>78530126
The AT crew needs to go in a hole where they can't write anything for a few years. They have all gone insane from the pressure. Look at the gigantic number of episodes all by the same small group of people, it cray cray.
>>78530284
Kind of feel bad for them. Oppose to Gumball's team, gumball's team may not completely free from pressure, but they seem to have enough time to relax. Heck, even Ben is a father already. I hope having a baby can bring more interesting staff to the show.
>>78501613
Fin and Dipper messed it up for themselves. Finn could be with FP right now if he did creep her out. Dipper got caught running game on a lot of girls.if Dipper kept it up he be knee deep.... in pussy
>>78530312
>characters are people with free will
the writers made them fuck themselves over
>>78530284
I kinda feel the romance in any show is a double edge. It can give the show a boost, but in exchange, it will overshadow other part of show. The consequence of introducing romance was to maintain it.
>>78525598
>>78530126
Then something similar like this will happened?
>>78503492
What is it with gays and gumball?
Why is it the most faggot of faggots draw gumball gay porn?
Is it because the fucking hips he has?
>>78530725
Don't you mean adventure time and regular show?
>>78525608
>AT was never even about the story
Then that's why it's doing terribly.
AT failed as a comedic show so the only thing that kept it going was the apparent lore, but as you said "it was never about the lore" so when the show went upon doing its own thing it started fucking up because they dropped the only thing that people wanted to see.
Steven Universe should learn from that and not do the same mistake in the future.
>>78530777

The thing about Bubbline is that the creators of the show have confirmed it to be canon. And since they made the freaking show, they have the last work on ships.
