He also wants love and has short memory. But he is still cool.
You forgot the episode where Finn slipped into a pillow pile, got trapped in a pillow world with no way to escape, lived a hole life there, got married, had kids, died of old age and, when dead, got out of the pillow pile a couple minutes after falling into it and forgot that any of that happened as if it was all a dream

You're not even sure if i really even existed! And i'm pretty sure i didn't look like this". The fact that finn doesn't even known if his original world/reality even existed or was just a dream is trippy af
I'd have to say that the pillow episode was a personal favorite. Always stuck in my mind no matter what. There's just something about it that just satisfies me in a psychological way. Almost calming, yet you can feel the hint of alarm through the entire episode
the darkest yet sweetest thing about simon is that the reason he was always after princesses was because he called betty his princess & desperately wanted her back, even though he didn't remember her
True, he was more like a father figure to her, he took care of her, protected her, and even sacrificed his sanity for her. He was more of a father to her than Hunson.
I know Simon was definitely a better dad than Hunson no question but at least give the guy a little credit, he does change and truly loves his daughter its just he didn’t know how to be a father, after all he is a demon, the ruler of the midnightosphere and was one of the monsters before time like orgalorg
Forget the deer's hands, what bothers me more are the eyes and the implications they hold. Those are forward facing eyes, in nature forward facing eyes are only found in predators. Also considering it had hands and very human eyes that thing is not, and probably never had been, a deer.
I’m surprised there was no mention of the scene of sweet pea telling the king of ooo that “before there was time there was nothing, and before there was nothing there were monsters”
8:00 Fern isn't a clone. Fern is Finn... the same Finn we know from all of the other episodes, just warped into an alternate state of being (the Finn sword) during the Prismo episode time paradox. This is Finn, killing himself. And not only that, it is Finn coming to terms with how despite being a hero, with enough of an unfortunate disposition (like the Grass Blade curse and being stuck in an alternate reality for ages) even he himself could become jaded, jealous, and turn on those around him. It is just absolutely tragic because we are watching our hero, defeated and corrupted in terrible circumstances.
Yeah that's easily the darkest part for me, seeing the most pure-hearted hero in Ooo broken like that, and what makes it even worse is that we're reminded of that every time Fern shows off his good side
No one seem to remember "the magic man" he literally remove the skin of a little bird and he also turn people in to limbs, just because he can and he finds it funny.
@@sleepy.thehuman yeah, he do, and he constantly torture people and animals for absolutly no reason. He literally commit less humanity crimes in Mars. Very weird character for a kids/teenagers show.

Is anybody gonna talk about the episode where lemongrab turns into a fascist cannibalistic dictator after eating his twin alive and then gets exploded by a symbolic boy who plays the harp
the lore of adventure time is legitimately the coolest lore I’ve ever seen in a tv show, no matter who it’s targeted towards. it throws you for a loop when you first start getting backstory and then you just keep wanting more
The door of regress was definitely a dark episode. Finn spent over a year living with his eyes closed just to get out of a dungeon only to realize no time went by at all...
Dude, I literally wanted to write the same thing! This episode was the darkest for me seeing as Jake and others never remembered anything while Finn just - existed... mindfuck..
I wouldn't call the Hall of Egress dark. I think it represents some sort of mental block that Finn needed to sort through to grow as a person. That's life
I feel like the fact that it was destined for Finn to lose his arm, especially seeing that all his past selves have no arm, should have had a mention. His arm literally detached trying to hold on to his father. That be dark.
Is no one going to talk about the first Gunther putting on the Crown and going insane, laughing maniacally, as the ice elemental dies in the background, all while the catalyst comet looms in the background, almost consuming the entire screen
You definitely skimmed over the moment where the Lich literally kills Billy and wears his skin as a disguise to manipulate Finn and Jake into helping him end all life. Also another dark moment can be found in the islands miniseries, where we learn how after Finn and Martin left the island Minirva fell into a state of depression and ultimately she “dies” to the virus that Doctor Gross released that killed off most of the other humans on the island
What is even scarier you just see a shadow and hear Billy scream before it cuts to black. Also think of what Finn must be thinking watching someone wear the corpse of his hero. It is one of the few times in the show you see Finn panic and his heroic willpower break as he is backing away in fear.
I never thought about Marceline and Simon’s relationship being like someone seeing a close relative go through dementia, it’s especially sad that way considering Simon is like a father figure to her. It’s good that he gains his senses in the last episode but man, you opened my eyes.
I was thinking what if marceline is the reason ice king is obsessed with pb I can just imagine marceline going over to simons castle checking up on him make sure he’s taking care of himself and telling him all about the very special friend she just made and it got stuck in his mind that pb is really special maybe after they stopped being friends she talked about how much she missed PB and he decided he needed to get PB to make marceline happy and that eventually got twisted to I need to get PB to be happy
As someone who has lost relatives to dementia, I will say that I managed to sit through "I Remember You" exactly once. It's a great episode, they just hit the nail on the head with that.
One scene from the episode “dads dungeon” where these girls were trying to get finn and jake to eat the fruit but when jake forced her to eat it, thorns came out of her throat and she turned into an apple and the other girls started eating her and the inside of the apple showed flesh and bones
I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS EXACT EPISODE. when you put the episodes into words they come off as dark, disturbing scary and makes no sense but when you watch them you kinda think of them as normal
The episode where the ice crown was created always stood out to me. Especially with the context that everyone's consciousness is in that crown and those shared memories influence the wearer so deeply...
I just realized that Fin losing his flower after only “kissing” lumpy space princess, is him being deflowered. He lost his flower like he had just lost his virginity
Uh I think he DID lose his virginity to lumpy space princess LOL why else would they black out the screen like something "other than kissing" isn't happening 🤔
The Finn vs Fern arc always really f*cked me up because from my pov the Finn that combined with the grass demon to create the Fern WAS original Finn. If you go back to whichever episode it was (Prismo, I think) you see that original Finn gets turned into Finn Sword and duplicate Finn is the one who gets to live out the rest of their life. Also, Finn accidentally killing Fern is the SECOND time Finn unintentionally but very directly kills his original self. I think that's why he's so devastated each time
Fr dude, I always hate time travel episodes in cartoons because most of the time the main character gets replaced by one from a separate timeline. I don’t like it because while they’re “technically” the same person they really aren’t.
The episode where lemonhope comes back to his home kingdom when it's all in ruin always stuck out to me. It's just so depressing to watch him all alone while he's singing.
@@potatonite2340 He did. There was a brief scene of him meeting Susan and then later we see him again 1000 years into the future looking very old but still kicking
Remember you was such a sad episode. Like, Marceline is literally reading what Simon wrote before he descended into madness and lost his sanity. I think Simon knew he would succumb to the crown's effects eventually. Worst part is how Ice King (Simon) doesn't understand any of it. He just thinks they're song lyrics he wrote. The way I felt about Ice King in the series was pretty much the same way I felt about Zuko from Avatar the Last Airbender. I hate/disliked the character towards the beginning, but after understanding the trauma/hardship the character went through I felt bad for them and didn't hate/dislike anymore. It's so sad what happened to Simon.
Yeah. Those characters feel like people that you wanted to hunt down and kill, then you suddenly know about their rough lives to the point that when they are at gunpoint, you stand down and leave, no questions asked.
Couldn't of said it better myself and now both are my favorite characters in their own respected shows.but rewatched avatar 2 twice last two weeks and zuko is my favorite character prolly from anything I vibe with him . Plus son of the fire lord and avatar Roku that makes you the goat just like that
I love how people are now starting to realize how good was Avatar now when everyone has nothing to do that staying in home watching Netflix. Myself included.
my dad used to sing me the song on that episode and i began to resent it as i got older cause i didn’t like talking about my feelings, but i’ve learned to love it again
In the commentary of the episode "No One Can Hear You" it's mentioned that the deer survived the episode and actually died later on in the series in "Sons Of Mars" after being transformed into a telescope by Magic Man
I’m really surprised that one early on episode where Finn is being uncomfortably harassed by a gnome man at a party then kidnapped by the gnome man in the middle of the night, taken to his lair/ underground gnome cave. Worse enough, they torture him into suggestively spinning and dancing around a pole by electrocuting his feet. At the end of the episode Finn imagines a scenario where he successfully breaks free and destroys the lair while fighting off all the gnomes and reunites with Jake in a loving embrace... only for it to cut back to him struggling, perspiring, and whimpering helplessly in the chair still. It is somewhat over shadowed by the A Plot being Jake searching for Finn while getting comically sidetracked but I will never forget how uncomfortable that episode makes me feel.
I don't if this makes it better or worse but the lead gnome is voiced by Paul Ruben (Pee-Wee Herman). I always loved that episode, me and my brother always died laughing when he says "Fire the shooty-gun-ray!"
The whole episode Monster Princess is about someone who can’t accept their own identity finally committing suicide while everyone around her tries to cheer her up and ultimately can’t understand her. The end of the episode was literally her note. The message I got from it was “sometimes you can’t help someone you love and you have to come to terms with the fact that what they do is what is ultimately best for them.” Seriously dark episode.
But that's the thing. She was just as valid. As Barbara Gordon said "I only wanted to live." (It's a weird DC event. Time travel, alternate storylines, Hal Jordan is the bad guy, people meet alternate reality selves.)
@@JoaoBatista-dn4gx In an earlier version of the episode, Marceline didn't even have a skeleton anymore; she hijacked Simon's skeleton to push Jake up the toxic pool.
Let’s not forget that “human island” series , the scene where Finn fights his dad and loses his arm while just desperately grasping to his biological dad ( and loosing him eventually ) ,and how gizmo IS JAKE SLEEPING
@@artsrandomstuff436 human island is where Finn met his biological mom. I don't know why he mentioned Finn losing his arm though, that was at the space prison or something.
I always bring up the episode when Jake is going to meet Lady Unicorn's parents and towards the end, Finn is peer pressured (slightly) into eating fake human that is supposed to taste exactly like human. He finally eats it and the episode ends with him staring into the camera with a smile and the audio going silent. I thought that was weird 😐 it's one of the smaller moments, but i love it
idk why but watching this made me finally realize that music was such a large part of marceline’s character because both her mother and simon used music to comfort her and so she used it to comfort herself kinda wholesome, but overall rlly sad:(
That episode would be number one for me. messed my mind up D: before the show ended, I hoped they would come back to this and give it a happy ending. they never did :/
I also remember an episode, I don't remember what's the title, in which BMO kills one of his siblings without ever having experienced love from his father to the point he tried to manipulate Finn and Jake pretending he was the robotic version of his creator.
Yeah the episode with Lumpy Space princess forcing her on Finn is def the creepiest and really shocking that it even made it onto CN. Like you'd expect Finn to push her off and run away or something but how the writers handled it was much more disturbing, even without showing what happened.
Princess Cookie was the best one off episode. It’s honestly so sad, you want to root for princess cookie and Jake but no matter how hard Jake tries the banana guards catch them. The saddest part is just how much Jake saw himself in princess cookie. The ending of the episode was bittersweet too.
Yeah the voice acting and score really drove in the weight of it all, too. I remember feeling very moved my first time seeing it, and those emotions came back when this video showed the clip of Princess Cookie thanking Jake for his almost futile efforts.
My mother always hated it, when we were watching Adventure Time. That was years ago and we were still small children. That one episode. The first time we saw the Lich, kept me up at night for several days. I hated it. I was terrified. Now its all good, but its still very scary looking.
@@michaelandreipalon359 So I woke up at the middle of the night all the time as a child, instead of going back to bed I would go to the living room and watch cartoon network and courage the cowardly dog was on and it was so scary bc it was midnight
Even “Evergreen” is dark, since we know the Ice King’s crown origins and how everything is messed because of an elemental jerk that abused his “adoptive son” and made no secrets about it
There was also that ep, when Jake got a death dream from the cosmic owl, and straight up went to commit suicide. And Finn just followed him and wanted to commit suicide with him.
I vividly remember the episode puhoy, where finn lives a whole life, and when he dies and wakes up he forgets everything that had happened in the matter of like 3 seconds
For me, almost every Lemongrab episode had some of the shows darkest themes and moments. From his inability to stop stalking the candy citizens and eventually torturing the citizens he does get, to he and his brother compulsively creating increasingly unstable forms of candy life, while starving their entire kingdom including themselves, to the brief but incredibly shocking moment where the original eats his clone alive in a fit of rage, and then seeing him grow into a brutal and unstable dictator, as his clone feebly clings to life and gives his own life again to allow Lemonhope to escape in hopes of a better future for his people, and knowing that all this is pretty much a result of uncontrollable urges rather than premeditated decisions. It's both horrifying and heart breaking to watch, and really challenges the audience to explore some of the darkest grays on the moral spectrum. He commits so many heinous acts throughout the series, and his voice and personality are grating, but he is consistently shown to have little to no understanding of how to change any of it. He struggles with the nature of his own existence after having received very little guidance, being abandoned by his creator because he was a disappointment to her. He does finally seem to find peace with himself, only after destroying an ancient hive mind who once again challenges him in a way that he can't cope with. That action's morality is also gray, though much more self realized than his previous ones, and gives a strangely satisfying conclusion to the arc of one of the story's best and most complex providers of psychological horror.
You forgot the episode where they were trying to surprise finn because its his birthday and celebrates on a train if i remember correctly and this one guy who looks like a middle aged guy kinda looked like an uncle, operates the train. And everytime the lights went out somebody would die. That really messed my 7 year old mind up.
Anyone remembers that scene where Jake stopped Finn from eating that apple and ended up giving it to one of those apple loves chicks in which she turned into a giant apple and started to eat it while they had bones in it? Yep.. straight up cannibalism.
One thing I think it's important to mention from Simon and Marcy is that It's because of Simon's use of the crown that Marcy got sick. When he made it snow on her
What makes fern even more ethically concerning as a character is he is not a clone of Finn, but he is Finn, just much as non fern Finn is. Fern is a constant reminder that Finn could have ended up just like fern, corrupted by evil
I actually think All the little people is just as disturbing as No One Can Hear You. I just remember my reaction to first watching that episode, the part where finn is pushing the tiny people together to make them kiss, or even when he stayed up at night and for weeks just playing with people, and being like wtf finn
At the time I just couldn’t guess what’s wrong with that episode and just liked it for some reason. Now it makes me realize how far can curiosity make a man go, and what type of wild wacky things it can push him to do.
When we were children and started watching a show just because it looks nice, but then in the future realizing the incredibly lucky that we are to get these series in our hearts ❤️
There is also a pretty dark episode with root beer guy, he has depression and his wife is unsatisfied and she is trying to do stuff but he hates his job
@@jaydeegreat88 Yeah I can't remember what caused it but he basically become a zombie, rose from the grave, but acted completely the same as before, but his wife left him because she had already married Starchy. He changed his name to Dirt Beer Guy and opened a bar.
I think one of the darkest things about Fern is that technically speaking he's a corrupted version of the original Finn. The Finn that was trapped in the sword was the original Finn wasn't he? When Prismo did all his time shenanigans to bring himself back by making Jake the new host, wasn't it the first Finn that became the Finn sword?
A pretty dark episode of Adventure Time is “Heat Signature” just for the fact that the plot is basically how a group of ghosts try to kill Finn and Jake through a prank all just to make them laugh
What about “james” when the only way out of a pit hiding the remains of the people who were mutated in a radioactive explosion was to sacrifice one of their dearly held friends towards the zombies for the rest to have a chance of escaping.
Oh damn, when Fin lost the flower on his arm after what happened with lumpy space princess I wonder if it was a metaphor for him being deflower in a way?
Watching the episodes that show Simon and Marceline was always so heartbreaking. You see Simon beginning to go mad but Marceline was still hopeful. You hope and hope that Simon won't go mad and leave Marceline alone in a scary world, but you already know how the story ends
bro, that episode when we know about the history of Marceline and the Ice King, I've never see it as Marceline dealing with someone she love having some mental disorder, that gives me chills.
Honestly my favorite storyline in this show is ice kings past because it is soooo complex and multi faceted. It’s beautiful. It’s hidden behind a facade of a crazy old man but, like you said, it’s a story about mental illness
A dark moment that was brought up recently in Obsidian: learning about how Marcy and her mom split up. Also the gas station Bonnie goes to that gives her the idea to make Lolly, Gumbald and Chicle. Looking at details of it is so creepy
Tbh one of the disturbing things in AT is PB’s arc up until S7 (I’m pretty sure), where Finn & Jake are friends with her and she’s all sweet and nice to them, but at the same time she is known to be a dictator who’ll murder thousands of conscious creatures if it helps her get her way.
What about Escape from the Citadel?? That whole episode had my jaw on the floor lol. Just thinking about the scene where the Lich says "fall" and gives a monologue about the end of existence in total silence gives me chills.
The one thing I couldn't seem to figure out was what was the third bucket? The first one was the trash bucket, the second was the one with Fern's remains, but the third remains a mystery.
"No One Can Hear You" went straight into my personal vault and I actually got chills watching this after over a decade of not seeing that. Absolutely horrifying. Great video though.
The one that stands out the most to me as wtf and dark is "No One Can Hear You" and also the one where a bunch of shirtless gnomes kidnap Finn and make him pole dance in his pajamas...
I like how this show caught all of our attention because it was a cartoon then slowly taught us real life lessons and morals through dark but funny stories
So the deer: put the main character in a six month long coma, incapacitated his best friend leaving him mentally unstable, kidnapped ALL of the inhabitants of the kandy kingdom and encased them in that weird slime substance, then when the main character finally got there, rescued them, and killed the deer, it never actually died cuz its still seen in later episodes, and probably tried to rape PB. Idek at this point-
In episode "All Your Fault" when Finn and Jake go through lemon castle if I remember right, when Jake opens the door to one of the rooms there is a lemon creature straight out of horror movie sitting and screaming.
I think you forgot the one where Finn was literally tortured by Gnomes and Jake didn't know where Finn was and thought he went out and is fine. Not only that but Finn had a moment where he was finally saved by Jake absolutely wrecking the place but it all turned out to be another torture device they were using on him that more or less showed Finns desires at the moment wanting to be saved so badly
Sad fact: In the song "Lemonhope", you see old Lemonhope walking around the leftovers of the world with a force-feild and a water tank attached to his chest. This is after everything happens in the main plot (evidenced by the layout of the world with the Broken Candy Kingdom and Finn and Jake's giant tree) and most likely after Distant Lands too. Lemonhope wanders around the inhabited Land of Ooo, somehow Ooo has no other living life forms seen, making Lemonhope the last person on the planet (this has not been proven but it makes more sense if it's true). He finds the old Lemon Palace, and finds his untouched room, still full of toys with a comfy bed. He turns off his force-feild, lays down, closes his eyes, and the episode is over. This most likely means: Ooo has no other living creatures exept for Lemonhope, and Lemonhope recognizes this, so his last adventure was to go home, turned off his force-feild (which most likely kept the water in him from his water tank to not dry up from the wind), and peacefully died in his bed, smiling to be back home. Edit: The fact that this episode aired way before the last episode, proved that Adventure Time has been planed out subtly since the beginning, like Finns arm, the Litch, and Marcaline and Simon/The Ice Kings relationship.
actually the writers admitted when the show started they had no proper plan to create a solid background for that world, but it's interesting how they later incorporated all of those disparate ideas into such a complex universe
Most of these aren't really THAT dark if you seen episodes like Lemongrabs focused episodes Lemonhope episodes All Lich Episodes Magic Man Jermaine Episode Ending of the Evergreen Episode Death of Clarence (That guy who killed himself by inflating himself with cheese) a.k.a. "my life is like a fart" guy from the "Ghost Princess" Episode Islands: VR episode Worm King Episodes Sky Witch episode (plus a creepy title card) Kinda "The Suitor" episode Finn at the edge of death in space Lich using Billy's dead body as a suit Hall of Egress (kinda) Elementals Death And much more :/
this show was the best, it always holds a special place near my heart. I remember someone i knew passed away and this shows helped me smile so yea thanks adventure time
Lest just take a moment to appreciate that Simon dipped out when PB turned 13, he still has normal reactions
If Simon reacted like that, how would Marcy cope?
I don’t think Ice King is Simon really. They are different people almost entirely.

GUNTER NO
You definitely skimmed over the moment where the Lich literally kills Billy and wears his skin as a disguise to manipulate Finn and Jake into helping him end all life. Also another dark moment can be found in the islands miniseries, where we learn how after Finn and Martin left the island Minirva fell into a state of depression and ultimately she “dies” to the virus that Doctor Gross released that killed off most of the other humans on the island
or, the episode where sweat pea(aka lich) shows the king of Ooo and the squirrell the existence of monsters before anything in reality.
I was about to say the Billy thing
Lich using Billy's dead body to get Finn to help him to kill everyone is definitely the darkest thing in CN history.
Michael afton moment
What is even scarier you just see a shadow and hear Billy scream before it cuts to black. Also think of what Finn must be thinking watching someone wear the corpse of his hero. It is one of the few times in the show you see Finn panic and his heroic willpower break as he is backing away in fear.
when Ice king dipped because PB turned 13 I immediately shouted "MY MAN!"

The maze episode always freaked me out. Watching Jake slowly get smaller and smaller and more tired and then wishing for a sandwich
Jake the Dog/ Finn the Human was pretty disturbing
@@leociresi4292Yeah, these two characters are weird, good think we see them pretty rare on Adventure Time.
I never thought about Marceline and Simon’s relationship being like someone seeing a close relative go through dementia, it’s especially sad that way considering Simon is like a father figure to her. It’s good that he gains his senses in the last episode but man, you opened my eyes.
Yeah but tbh I was pretty upset to see his love be turned into an actual chaos machine
I was thinking what if marceline is the reason ice king is obsessed with pb I can just imagine marceline going over to simons castle checking up on him make sure he’s taking care of himself and telling him all about the very special friend she just made and it got stuck in his mind that pb is really special maybe after they stopped being friends she talked about how much she missed PB and he decided he needed to get PB to make marceline happy and that eventually got twisted to I need to get PB to be happy
As someone who has lost relatives to dementia, I will say that I managed to sit through "I Remember You" exactly once. It's a great episode, they just hit the nail on the head with that.
Felt like that was obvious bro

One scene from the episode “dads dungeon” where these girls were trying to get finn and jake to eat the fruit but when jake forced her to eat it, thorns came out of her throat and she turned into an apple and the other girls started eating her and the inside of the apple showed flesh and bones
how do you unread sentences
I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS EXACT EPISODE. when you put the episodes into words they come off as dark, disturbing scary and makes no sense but when you watch them you kinda think of them as normal
That scared me so bad when I was younger that I never watched another episode ever again. Still haven’t
That was really disturbing
Dude... It still creep me out until now a bit. When I was 13 when I first watched it and I'm 21 now
The episode where the ice crown was created always stood out to me.
Especially with the context that everyone's consciousness is in that crown and those shared memories influence the wearer so deeply...
I just realized that Fin losing his flower after only “kissing” lumpy space princess, is him being deflowered. He lost his flower like he had just lost his virginity
Uh-huh.
Do you think his mom saw that when she was going through his memories
@@eltonxavier5523 don't make this even worse....
Uh I think he DID lose his virginity to lumpy space princess LOL why else would they black out the screen like something "other than kissing" isn't happening 🤔
@@eltonxavier5523 Go tell her then.
That deer appears as a background character in later episodes so he’s still alive even after getting his neck broken and thrown into a sewer
Christ
@Naivet Moronta your welcome
Man thats spine chilling considered that the deer is a mimicking predator.
I did not know that. It turned out that the "freak deer" just got knocked out and survived the sewer hole.
I think it’s a wendigo
The Finn vs Fern arc always really f*cked me up because from my pov the Finn that combined with the grass demon to create the Fern WAS original Finn. If you go back to whichever episode it was (Prismo, I think) you see that original Finn gets turned into Finn Sword and duplicate Finn is the one who gets to live out the rest of their life. Also, Finn accidentally killing Fern is the SECOND time Finn unintentionally but very directly kills his original self. I think that's why he's so devastated each time
Fr dude, I always hate time travel episodes in cartoons because most of the time the main character gets replaced by one from a separate timeline. I don’t like it because while they’re “technically” the same person they really aren’t.
a flood of dark and disturbing memories from this show just cascaded through my mind as soon as I read the title of this video
that time finn had an existential conversation
Same
Yes as soon as I saw the title I had Vietnam flashbacks of Adventure Time
An existential what? Even if reality is just a trick by demons, there has to be something to trick. Cogito, ergo sum. I think, therefore I am.
There. I spared you getting deep into existentialism.
Surprised there’s no Lemongrab..... the lemonhope episodes are crazy dark
he literally eats his brother, how is that not on the list
@@potatonite2340 Fr when I saw This list that’s all I was thinking about
The episode where lemonhope comes back to his home kingdom when it's all in ruin always stuck out to me. It's just so depressing to watch him all alone while he's singing.
@@clintbaluyot8128 ngl i think i skipped those for that reason, also what happened to him? He wasn't in the finale (i think)
@@potatonite2340 He did. There was a brief scene of him meeting Susan and then later we see him again 1000 years into the future looking very old but still kicking
i will never forget the tonal shift when jake said "I've been waiting for my surprise party for SIX MONTHS"
I’d like to add the clown nurse “It’s the only way” scene, please.
Bro, that episode gave me goosebumps. Just the thought of old clowns rubbing me is disturbing.
God I remember watching that episode when I was a kid and it still haunts me
That scene was messed up!
Not just that one but the flashing imagery finn had when the bush wouldn't let him cross the river.
That one is my least favorite episode to this day
Remember you was such a sad episode. Like, Marceline is literally reading what Simon wrote before he descended into madness and lost his sanity. I think Simon knew he would succumb to the crown's effects eventually. Worst part is how Ice King (Simon) doesn't understand any of it. He just thinks they're song lyrics he wrote.
The way I felt about Ice King in the series was pretty much the same way I felt about Zuko from Avatar the Last Airbender. I hate/disliked the character towards the beginning, but after understanding the trauma/hardship the character went through I felt bad for them and didn't hate/dislike anymore. It's so sad what happened to Simon.
Yeah. Those characters feel like people that you wanted to hunt down and kill, then you suddenly know about their rough lives to the point that when they are at gunpoint, you stand down and leave, no questions asked.
Couldn't of said it better myself and now both are my favorite characters in their own respected shows.but rewatched avatar 2 twice last two weeks and zuko is my favorite character prolly from anything I vibe with him . Plus son of the fire lord and avatar Roku that makes you the goat just like that
I love how people are now starting to realize how good was Avatar now when everyone has nothing to do that staying in home watching Netflix.
Myself included.
I really hated Zuko. Then I began to understand him. He's probably my favorite character in Avatar
my dad used to sing me the song on that episode and i began to resent it as i got older cause i didn’t like talking about my feelings, but i’ve learned to love it again
In the commentary of the episode "No One Can Hear You" it's mentioned that the deer survived the episode and actually died later on in the series in "Sons Of Mars" after being transformed into a telescope by Magic Man
I’m really surprised that one early on episode where Finn is being uncomfortably harassed by a gnome man at a party then kidnapped by the gnome man in the middle of the night, taken to his lair/ underground gnome cave. Worse enough, they torture him into suggestively spinning and dancing around a pole by electrocuting his feet. At the end of the episode Finn imagines a scenario where he successfully breaks free and destroys the lair while fighting off all the gnomes and reunites with Jake in a loving embrace... only for it to cut back to him struggling, perspiring, and whimpering helplessly in the chair still. It is somewhat over shadowed by the A Plot being Jake searching for Finn while getting comically sidetracked but I will never forget how uncomfortable that episode makes me feel.
On retrospect that was one dark ass episode, I only remember it because of dance bug LMAO
The episode lokey scared me
*w h a t *
I don't if this makes it better or worse but the lead gnome is voiced by Paul Ruben (Pee-Wee Herman). I always loved that episode, me and my brother always died laughing when he says "Fire the shooty-gun-ray!"
I never thought that was pole dancing, bruh. Plus, dancing Jake came of that episode
The saddest part in adventure time is when it ended.
The last few seasons were full of shit, just like Regular show.
@@nikolaikolev8252 Actually no, only the 6th season was bad. The 7th season and especially the 8th season were great.
Still isn't over! We have 2 more episodes of Distant Lands!
@@nikolaikolev8252 It's the opposite lol
The last few seasons were at the same level or even better than the other ones.

The whole episode Monster Princess is about someone who can’t accept their own identity finally committing suicide while everyone around her tries to cheer her up and ultimately can’t understand her. The end of the episode was literally her note. The message I got from it was “sometimes you can’t help someone you love and you have to come to terms with the fact that what they do is what is ultimately best for them.” Seriously dark episode.
It was super dark when Farmworld Marceline died. Sure she wasn't the Marceline we knew, but her death was still really disturbing.
But that's the thing. She was just as valid. As Barbara Gordon said "I only wanted to live." (It's a weird DC event. Time travel, alternate storylines, Hal Jordan is the bad guy, people meet alternate reality selves.)
Like DBZA Mr. Perfect Cell said to DBZA Trunks, "Multiverse Theory's a bitch". (Forgive my language.)
The more disturbing to is not the death itself, but the fact that she was alive when she handed jake to finn, there was not even flesh in her body
"I warned you, you butt."
@@JoaoBatista-dn4gx In an earlier version of the episode, Marceline didn't even have a skeleton anymore; she hijacked Simon's skeleton to push Jake up the toxic pool.
Let’s not forget that “human island” series , the scene where Finn fights his dad and loses his arm while just desperately grasping to his biological dad ( and loosing him eventually ) ,and how gizmo IS JAKE SLEEPING
Prizmo
I WAS WAITINGFOR HIM TO SAY ABOUT THE HUMAN ISLAND
What do you mean by “human island”? I’ve watched the show but I can’t pin what you mean by that
@@artsrandomstuff436 human island is where Finn met his biological mom. I don't know why he mentioned Finn losing his arm though, that was at the space prison or something.
@@artsrandomstuff436 when he loses his grass arm trying to get his dad to stay when they were at the citadel
I always bring up the episode when Jake is going to meet Lady Unicorn's parents and towards the end, Finn is peer pressured (slightly) into eating fake human that is supposed to taste exactly like human. He finally eats it and the episode ends with him staring into the camera with a smile and the audio going silent. I thought that was weird 😐 it's one of the smaller moments, but i love it
If i recall correctly, finn even makes a comment about not disliking the food, so most likely, finn likes cannibalism
@@lh2919 Yeah he said "Oh! I taste delicious!" or something very similar
I just watched it, all finn does is smile then it smash cuts to credits, Jake is the one that says he tastes awesome. It's so messed up I love it
idk why but watching this made me finally realize that music was such a large part of marceline’s character because both her mother and simon used music to comfort her and so she used it to comfort herself
kinda wholesome, but overall rlly sad:(
Anybody remember "Bad timing" when LSP delete's her new boyfriend from this plane of existence and PB erases her memory to ease the trauma?
The saddest episode of the show IMO
That episode made me so sad and frustrated at the same time😭
DON'T REMIND ME ABOUT IT CHILE-
😭🤚
That episode would be number one for me. messed my mind up D:
before the show ended, I hoped they would come back to this and give it a happy ending. they never did :/
And the fact we can see the boyfriend outside the circle, reaching out to LSP at the end, but LSP already forgot him.
The episode where James is sacrificed to the Ooze monsters is pretty messed up ahaha
Yep 👍
that was definitely one of the saddest moments of Adventure Time
Also the episode where the citizens of Candy Kingdom are captured by the deer.
@@leociresi4292 that episode is in the list already
Remember James? Princess bubblegum sacrificed him to save Finn, Jake and herself, then made a clone of him.
Multiple, yeah. ;^;
I also remember an episode, I don't remember what's the title, in which BMO kills one of his siblings without ever having experienced love from his father to the point he tried to manipulate Finn and Jake pretending he was the robotic version of his creator.
He litteraly gets eaten by zombies
Yeah Bublegum can be cinic and cruel sometimes
Its the darkest one 4 me dude. I almost got depressed
i’m surprised there wasn’t the scene where jake striaght up drowns finn to help him get over his fear of the ocean
RIGHT??? That shit terrified me when I was little
That's not even terrible
nah that was funny
That’s what friends are for
I mean he did say to not scream before
Yeah the episode with Lumpy Space princess forcing her on Finn is def the creepiest and really shocking that it even made it onto CN. Like you'd expect Finn to push her off and run away or something but how the writers handled it was much more disturbing, even without showing what happened.
Princess Cookie was the best one off episode. It’s honestly so sad, you want to root for princess cookie and Jake but no matter how hard Jake tries the banana guards catch them. The saddest part is just how much Jake saw himself in princess cookie. The ending of the episode was bittersweet too.
Yeah the voice acting and score really drove in the weight of it all, too. I remember feeling very moved my first time seeing it, and those emotions came back when this video showed the clip of Princess Cookie thanking Jake for his almost futile efforts.
The way the frame lingers on him standing in a hospital in a straight jacket was kind of disturbing to me.
Definitely one of my favorites " chips where my chips ? Chilton chipoleana, Chipton, chipler?
My mother always hated it, when we were watching Adventure Time. That was years ago and we were still small children. That one episode. The first time we saw the Lich, kept me up at night for several days. I hated it. I was terrified.
Now its all good, but its still very scary looking.
I have the same opinion on Courage the Cowardly Dog, too (except my mom was more accepting).
lmao I loved that show as a child- still do,, I a weird kid tho
Omg same I was so horrified
I wasn’t allowed to watch power rangers because the monsters were scary
@@michaelandreipalon359 So I woke up at the middle of the night all the time as a child, instead of going back to bed I would go to the living room and watch cartoon network and courage the cowardly dog was on and it was so scary bc it was midnight
Finn is a G, his legs get broken inwards, and he literally says, "whatever".
Then passes out
I think when Prismo died,The Lich wearing Billy as a disguise and Finn losing his arm the first time are the darkest Adventure time moments
OMGGGGGGG
Even “Evergreen” is dark, since we know the Ice King’s crown origins and how everything is messed because of an elemental jerk that abused his “adoptive son” and made no secrets about it
"Don't worry the elements we embody will live on"
The lich catalyst comet: Sup
Wait... WHAT!?!?!?!?
Right? Fucken Evergreen brought that shit on himself. That was such a weird episode, I felt bad for Gunther.
Gunther did not even deserve Evergreen
There was also that ep, when Jake got a death dream from the cosmic owl, and straight up went to commit suicide. And Finn just followed him and wanted to commit suicide with him.
I vividly remember the episode puhoy, where finn lives a whole life, and when he dies and wakes up he forgets everything that had happened in the matter of like 3 seconds
Four month old comment, but you are describing fins adventures in pillow land. He lives a whole life, sees GOLB, then forgets about it entirely.
He basically time traveled to his later life but changed by living his later life in a pillow world
It would also be cool that if the reason Finn lost his memory of the pillow world is because GOLB erases your memory when it looks at you
This episode blew my mind in the pillow world
I just assumed he forgot it because when golb destroyed the world he legitimately deleted all traces of it from existence
ok but what about that episode where finn is a foot when the magic man literally turns a bird inside out and then they all watch it pitifully hop away
I hated that episode because Jake was trying to make Finn stay being a foot. He was genuinely pissing me off.
Oh god, why did you have to remind me that
@@Seraphic2004✨ MAGIC 💥
For me, almost every Lemongrab episode had some of the shows darkest themes and moments. From his inability to stop stalking the candy citizens and eventually torturing the citizens he does get, to he and his brother compulsively creating increasingly unstable forms of candy life, while starving their entire kingdom including themselves, to the brief but incredibly shocking moment where the original eats his clone alive in a fit of rage, and then seeing him grow into a brutal and unstable dictator, as his clone feebly clings to life and gives his own life again to allow Lemonhope to escape in hopes of a better future for his people, and knowing that all this is pretty much a result of uncontrollable urges rather than premeditated decisions. It's both horrifying and heart breaking to watch, and really challenges the audience to explore some of the darkest grays on the moral spectrum. He commits so many heinous acts throughout the series, and his voice and personality are grating, but he is consistently shown to have little to no understanding of how to change any of it. He struggles with the nature of his own existence after having received very little guidance, being abandoned by his creator because he was a disappointment to her. He does finally seem to find peace with himself, only after destroying an ancient hive mind who once again challenges him in a way that he can't cope with. That action's morality is also gray, though much more self realized than his previous ones, and gives a strangely satisfying conclusion to the arc of one of the story's best and most complex providers of psychological horror.

A pretty dark episode of Adventure Time is “Heat Signature” just for the fact that the plot is basically how a group of ghosts try to kill Finn and Jake through a prank all just to make them laugh

FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONS IT!
Watching the episodes that show Simon and Marceline was always so heartbreaking. You see Simon beginning to go mad but Marceline was still hopeful. You hope and hope that Simon won't go mad and leave Marceline alone in a scary world, but you already know how the story ends
bro, that episode when we know about the history of Marceline and the Ice King, I've never see it as Marceline dealing with someone she love having some mental disorder, that gives me chills.
I almost died by the hands of my grandpa who had dementia, so I feel what Marceline felt.
Oh god D: Sorry that happened to you
Honestly my favorite storyline in this show is ice kings past because it is soooo complex and multi faceted. It’s beautiful. It’s hidden behind a facade of a crazy old man but, like you said, it’s a story about mental illness
A dark moment that was brought up recently in Obsidian: learning about how Marcy and her mom split up. Also the gas station Bonnie goes to that gives her the idea to make Lolly, Gumbald and Chicle. Looking at details of it is so creepy
i was just thinking of that 🥲
Man, most of these moments either involve Simon or Marceline.

Tbh one of the disturbing things in AT is PB’s arc up until S7 (I’m pretty sure), where Finn & Jake are friends with her and she’s all sweet and nice to them, but at the same time she is known to be a dictator who’ll murder thousands of conscious creatures if it helps her get her way.
What about Escape from the Citadel?? That whole episode had my jaw on the floor lol. Just thinking about the scene where the Lich says "fall" and gives a monologue about the end of existence in total silence gives me chills.

All your fault seemed like a preface to The Backrooms
I think you forgot the one where Finn was literally tortured by Gnomes and Jake didn't know where Finn was and thought he went out and is fine. Not only that but Finn had a moment where he was finally saved by Jake absolutely wrecking the place but it all turned out to be another torture device they were using on him that more or less showed Finns desires at the moment wanting to be saved so badly
Sad fact:
In the song "Lemonhope", you see old Lemonhope walking around the leftovers of the world with a force-feild and a water tank attached to his chest.
This is after everything happens in the main plot (evidenced by the layout of the world with the Broken Candy Kingdom and Finn and Jake's giant tree) and most likely after Distant Lands too.
Lemonhope wanders around the inhabited Land of Ooo, somehow Ooo has no other living life forms seen, making Lemonhope the last person on the planet (this has not been proven but it makes more sense if it's true).
He finds the old Lemon Palace, and finds his untouched room, still full of toys with a comfy bed. He turns off his force-feild, lays down, closes his eyes, and the episode is over.
This most likely means: Ooo has no other living creatures exept for Lemonhope, and Lemonhope recognizes this, so his last adventure was to go home, turned off his force-feild (which most likely kept the water in him from his water tank to not dry up from the wind), and peacefully died in his bed, smiling to be back home.
Edit: The fact that this episode aired way before the last episode, proved that Adventure Time has been planed out subtly since the beginning, like Finns arm, the Litch, and Marcaline and Simon/The Ice Kings relationship.
@Kyle Vu remember, even though Marcy and PB are thousands of years old, dosent mean that they can't die.
Feelz 😿
actually the writers admitted when the show started they had no proper plan to create a solid background for that world, but it's interesting how they later incorporated all of those disparate ideas into such a complex universe
You forgot the episode with James, when he sacrifices himself because Finn and Jake never trusted him.
Or that time an entire episode was devoted to Finn climbing to space to rip his dad's arm off
Yeah James who wear red suit wasnt imposter imposter was pink
Simon is one of my favourite characters in adventure time ngl , when he sacrificed everything to save marcy and himself I bawled 😭
The scariest thing about this series was when I realized the great mushroom war was a nuclear war

"Everything about this makes me uncomfortable."
Yup, that's Adventure Time alright
Watching Betty slowly descending into magical madness for Simon was also pretty dark. Especially in the show finale
What about the citadel episode where the Lich turns into a baby?? “Fall. You are alone, child.” Felt like it was pretty dark lol
it always gets dark when the lich is on screen
