Elements Miniseries Megareview (Adventure Time S9E2–9)

I love how BMO goes "I'm going to start treating him as an equal" as though BMO viewed him as lower than him the entire time

The only reason Charol kept her memories when she got turned to ice is because she is part of the water cycle and water is meant to freeze

The Cosmic Owl and Prismo reacting to Betty looks like two bros binging a show and gasping at plot twists and it just sounds funny to me

My favorite parts are: "Four way elemental pizza" and "are you a toucan?"

I just realized that BMO never thought of Neptr as an equal.

(Roughly quoted) "This Simon guy sounds real great, but I'm Ice King!" I really wonder how Marceline would feel about hearing that.

Icified people/creatures remembering their old selves actually make sense. Ice preserves stuff. Pretty cool

The saddest part about Elements was Patience cutting short Betty's attempt to bond with the IK outside of Simon. They looked so cute and like something could've been born there and maybe just maybe avoid so much tragedy. Patience is a cvnt.

The best part of this miniseries is Marshmaline the Campfire Queen. Two puns in one. How much better can you get without overdoing it?

i think lumpy space princess's star thing being attracted to the enchiridion and not fitting in the lich was a bit of foreshadowing to elements

Princess Bubblegum is also older than all of the other elementals combined, since Patience didn't really age while she was on ice. When Patience St. Pim froze herself all those years ago at the start of the Mushroom War, I think she inadvertently threw the whole elemental reincarnation cycle out of balance and it's been seriously screwed up ever since.

14:55 remember when Ice King was explaining that he knows a lot about Finn and Jake and one of the facts stated is that Jake is too afraid to cry for real because he's afraid of true emotion

A cute thing to note about PB and Marcy in this mini series is the fact that Marcy has on the same outfit from "What Was Missing", and in the same episode Marcy sung "I'm Just Your Problem" where the first lines are: "Sorry I don't treat you like a goddess, is that what you want me to do? Sorry I don't treat you like you're perfect, like all your loyal subjects do. Sorry I'm not made of sugar, am I not sweet enough for you?" Marcy literally became everything she said Bubblegum wanted and she was kinda right

I just realized that when Finn is in fire mode, his robo-arm is just a regular fire arm

It was important to show Fern and Lemongrab approaching the fire kingdom warriors because those two are the biggest warriors themselves in the candy kingdom. Even though their fighting spirit was eliminated by the candy curse, this clearly shows how they subconsciously tried to fight back through kindness instead of power or anger, by forcing juice on the fire kingdom people, which could possibly put out their flames

Okay but hear me out- The people who are iced- turn cold. They don't lose their memories BECAUSE- those memories- event the happy ones- are turned into cold reminders of their past lives. The people who are fired- are hot headed. Their memories fuel their rage. People who are slimmed don't honestly change that much, simply because of how literally versatile they are. Finally- those who were candified- became happier. Simply because- and yes- pun intended- their memories got sugar coated. Their minds got literally glazed over-. Yes i'm late- but not really- this is just the first time I thought to ever say something about it.

I think Ice Carol was unaffected because she froze herself, and wasn't frozen by Patience. As she said, she literally WILLED herself to evaporate into a cloud person.

'I really like what Ice King said to Betty "look lady, I don't know you and you don't know me, but we're the only two sane ones left in this messed-up world. Or, maybe the rest of the world's okay and we're the ones losing our marbles." As with a lot of their quotes, this one hit me hard. And in the context, with both of them loosing themself to the sad and mad world of wizarding, it was so sweet and sad.

52:58 I just noticed that Uncle Gumbald, Aunt Lolly and Cousin Chicle were intentionall separated from the group of candy-fied creatures...

The later episode "Ketchup" implies that Marceline went to Patience St. Pim to stop the transformations before PB fully transformed, but when she saw the transformation complete, she let herself be transformed too.
