someone said "used to like it as a kid"?! How old are you?! hehehe

the very first AT i saw was so beyond edgy i almost pooed my panties
since then its hit or miss for me. I do enjoy it but its not up to that very first impression i had.

Overall its quite good. Whether it really strikes you is a personal thing i think. So for me its a mixed review - although i generally have a very positive attitude about animation like that being brought to kids. kids aren't stupid. feed them something *ahem* "outside the kiddie show box" LOL
How can you call AT edgy when you read Berserk.

The shows been going downhill IMO, the new episodes have drifted away from the hyped plot. They made PB and Marceline act extremely odd in one episode, to the point where their personalities opposed their original character.
You know they have a lesbian past with each other right?
Didn't someone get fired from the crew for making something that made that a little too clear when ti was supposed to be subtle? I haven't seen what it was yet I want to find it.

lol good point ^^
it just struck me as perhaps far more intelligent than most kids fare. i kicked myself when i used the word "edgy" (overused and meaningless at this point) but didn't bother changing it

Kinda surprised this show is so unpopular here. Especially since I know a plenty of people enjoying both anime and AT.

Adventure Time is totally awesome, actually I'm a big fan of it. I like how it manages to be simple and funny and to have some serious undertones at the same time - just like some of my favorite anime series.

Adventure Time is the only show I like from current Cartoon Network, I loved Flapjack, Samurai Jack, Powerpuff Girls, Courage the Cowardly dog, but they stopped airing these, now Adventure Time is really a great show, the voice acting is great, the script in my opinion is very funny and intelligent at the same time, I love how they add elements from RPG (I'm a big fan of RPG), I really like how they created a post apocalyptic setting for the show, with the populaion of Ooo being mutation from the nuclear radiation of the mushroom war, Finn is the last human left (aside from a few others) if you think it's pretty dark, this cartoon is very good in my opinion.

I agree with Otaking, I was drawn to it because Jake's voice is Bender's from Futurama. I think its pretty good but I prefer shows like American Dad, Family Guy, etc. Though if its on I watch it :) It's one of the better ones lately

The episode was pretty good (and educational). A bit too surreal for my liking, but some pretty neat visuals.

I laughed when Yuasa used "Der Hoelle Rache" from Mozart during the transformation sequence, so wonderfully wacky.
The rest of the episode was great as well, very creative and nice short story segments that lead into a good conclusion (even though the end song could have been better).
Yuasa should do more series in the West, he seems appreciated here and I assume he would have a higher chance here to get some unconventional jobs.

I find it funny, but it isn't something I can binge watch. Regular Show on the other hand is a show I find addicting, they're always turning the mundane into something unexpectedly over the top, which I find hilarious.

I hope so as well . That episode was okay but I hated how it seemed like it was being hinted that Finn and PB could still become a couple. I want Finn and Flame Princess to get back together, that was the best OTP in the show.

Yeah I find Regular Show easier to marathon but that's because I like Regular Show more. Regular Show is kind of better as an episodic show.

A mini series is planned for the show and a movie is in the works.

I'm definitely looking forward to both. The synopsis for the mini series is very interesting and I think Adventure Time would work well as a film. I only hope though that it wouldn't be CG animated.

Adventure Time and Rick & Morty are the only series I watch outside of anime.

Adventure Time is amazing, especially when watched chronologically. The first three seasons I will admit are a little bit childish at times, but they figured out that their viewer base was more along the lines of stoned young adults by then and the series got VERY GOOD and VERY DARK from season 4 onward, and it's just gotten downright awesome and disturbing in season 6.

I mean, there's an episode where Lemongrab is contemplating suicide and talking about ego-death and shit, that's way over the heads of children.

Also, watch Rick and Morty, it's probably the best cartoon series that exists so far. Just watch this minute-long clip.



Oh, also, another reason to like Adventure Time? Masaaki Yuasa liked it enough to direct an episode. The motherfucker behind Kaiba and Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei made an episode of Adventure Time, here it is.

I'm a big Adventure Time fan, it reminds of those really edgy early 90's Cartoon Network shows. It seemed like CN took a backseat to Adult Swim for a long time, I'm glad they're putting out some good stuff again.


It's one of the few good stuff they're putting out now though. They seem to have something against good DC shows for some reason.
Over the Garden Wall is another good mini series they brought out recently, but now they are just sparse.

You should check out Steven Universe, it's also pretty good. I am actually enjoying it as much as Adventure Time and Regular Show. Cartoon Network won the ratings war of the 90's so it's less competitive now thus it's creating less cartoons than it did in the 90's but it is still creating good stuff. Cartoon Network is owned by Warner Bros. and so is DC so I don't see why Cartoon Network would have anything against DC cartoons. From my understanding Young Justice and Green Lantern TAS were cancelled because of low toy sales. I think Warner Bros. animation should continue them through DVD and Bluray.

That's what I meant. Using toy sales as criteria for maintaining a show tends to exclude the better shows. It also favours episodic series and more kiddy ones.

Well money talks. I think DVD/Blu ray sales should be the main criteria instead of tv ratings and toy sales, also DVD/ Bluray and Digital should replace tv as the main platforms for releasing super hero action based cartoons. Warner Bros has made way over a billion so far from the DC Direct to DVD animated movies and because of that they continue to make them. Tv is too much of a shaky platform, a good show could get cancelled in the blink of an eye.

I was really disappointed with the season 6 finale. It had really good build up but fell apart in the last episode. Also what was up with that 2deep for you crap with the comet. Regular Show had a far superior season 6 finale. The way I see it now is Regular Show> Steven Universe> Adventure Time. Adventure Time needs to step it's game up with the upcoming mini series.

It has world building, character development, character growth, nice artstyle although simplistic character designs and top notch soundtrack when Rebecca Sugar (creator of Steven Universe) was songwriter.
