THEYRE BACK, BABY

I’m so happy I saw this post. We must continue the noble tradition of welcoming you with the meme.

Welcome!

what do you mean the principal just shoots a fellow teacher and then himself in the head??!? in the second episode?

[andwhenthefantasydied]

Like, the serious character-based answer is Adaine should get to be Barbarian because she has a lot of rage. Then again, Adaine’s furious fists already covers that.

The joke answer is Fig should pick up 2 levels of barbarian exclusively out of attending Porter’s barbarian classes. Porter is really proud of her but she still thinks he’s suspicious.

Fantasy High Junior Year Prediction Polls 6

Last time, Kristen finally failed to win a poll. Almost half of you have way more faith than me that Riz will actually tell his friends something personal.

This time, we're moving on to something a little more... mechanical.

Ayda and Adaine's friendship is so special to me

This is how Junior Year will start: “so our intrepid heroes just got back from defeating the night yorb…”

So you want to watch Fionna and Cake…

Without having watched Adventure Time?

Or maybe you watched up to like season 3 when you were twelve, or caught a few episodes while high in college. Regardless, you've seen images of that wet meow meow old man or the the cute sword chick or the gay vamp/sugar queen pair and you're curious. You want in, and you don't wanna slog through 10 seasons of TV first.

Absolutely valid. That said, I do think that Fionna and Cake is… nearly impenetrable if you don't have at least some grounding in the original series.

So here you go: a curated list of 19 episodes to get you more-or-less up to speed. Most AT eps are only 11 min long so it shouldn't take long to get through! And while you'll definitely still be confused about some elements in the series, i think sitting there going 'huh, wha?' is an important part of the Adventure Time experience.

Enjoy!

i am completely normal about the abernant sisters and their reconciliation

So I hear the new Bleach anime is getting to the violently transphobic episode and boy I hope they at least toned it down.

I doubt it though. It’s going to be super transphobic

[andwhenthefantasydied]

I feel crazy about Elias's scar, I feel crazy I feel insane, he bears the mark of his own kindness, a young and hungry, brilliant scientist who forces himself to live in a world of logic, wincing at his own reflection in the mirror because he has to face the evidence of his own emotion and righteousness adorned in blood.

The way he has to pull his hat down to hide it, which means he always has to keep his eyes to the ground, his scar literally barring him from human connection.

How he's thought of that girl who looked at him and actually smiled for Years because it means she saw his face and wasn't afraid.
