If you told my younger self the ice king would’ve become such a deep and interesting character, I wouldn’t have believed you

[xSharpW]

I really appreciate Finn being one of the only people who tried helping Simon as soon as he noticed he was unhappy. I'm sure Marcy would have too but it is very meaningful for Finn who used to beat up Ice King on the daily, to be Simons good friend helping him get out of his funk, or at least trying to even if it was unsuccessful.

I also had a gril that turned into a chaotic deity to save me from insanity that I then travelled the multiverse to find

Tom Kenny was not kidding when he said this is the most emotional role he’s ever performed

If simon went to the bus with betty, he wouldn't have found the crown, he would probably live a happy life with betty but eventually die with her because of the mushroom bomb, and he doesn't have the crown to protect himself or betty (at least he got to live with betty), marceline wouldn't be raised by simon so she becomes evil and doesn't kill the vampires, human race goes extinct because of the vampires, finn isn't born (which is a really important thing because he is the embodiment of good), the lich emerges and without anyone to stop him he succeeds.

Simon is a catalyst comet.

the way simon has lived the most incomprehensible, unrealistic life and yet he is still relatable because at its core, his problems stem from very real issues and basic character flaws (i.e. no sense of purpose, stuck in the past, full of regrets, one-sided relationship with betty)... the writers did a spectacular job on this show

i love a good compilation of a sopping wet cat, burdened with suffocating despair because he is sopping and wet.

Character with depression: Exists
Me: it's literally me

[Super-Saiyan-Blue-Gogeta]

Now I'm actually curious about what if Simon had actually gotten on the bus with Betty...

[TheSonicBros]

Honestly my biggest complaint with the show is how they set up Simon not talking to Marcy in the first episode, then in later episodes explain how important she was to him and vice versa. Only for them to never show him opening up to her or at least hanging out in the finale

[ghsvideosreviews]

Bro lost his love, surived the nuclear Holocaust, and the end of civilization as he knew, protected his kid until the blink of insanity, and after 1000 years, he finally recovers his mind just to lose his loved one again, finding himself in a world where he is basically an living dinosaur.

No surprise he was that sad.

[PsychoticaYT]

Simon is literally the definition of being so depressed because of your previous actions, you have to find some kind of escape from it.

[Jkuro_]

Man the producers really know how to get in touch with their viewers. It's like they know the kids who grew up watching it are now depressed


Edit: Jesus christ, I can't believe my comment attracted some loses telling people who's allowed to have depression and who's not

“Every day is just an unending slog towards…towards….what?”

I remember watching this series when it first premiered, i was in middle school.

Now im a full fledged adult. Have a stable job and just got my own apartment not too long ago and now i find myself asking that same question everyday :(

This series has done an absolutely phenomenal job growing with its audience over the years.

[Angelus]

I feel like Ice King and Simon's story really summarizes Adventure Time as a whole, goofy character doing wacky things meeting incredibly sad tragedy

[deliavazquez]

Most relatable character in Fionna and Cake

[mech-hands]

I know it’s cliche but the song name being “the perfect girl” is just the icing on the cake.

[Duke_Sliscus]

I wondered why simon could do magic without being crazy... then I remembered it's "Madness and Sadness" and he has more than enough of the other.

[inkable]

It’s nearly impossible for someone to relate to Simon at all. He went through more trauma than anyone in any show, and to now he still struggles to cope with his past

Today, we may feel like Simon Petrikov. Tomorrow, we'll be better. Stay strong, everyone. Overcoming takes an everyday.
