thinkinggg about. race in adventure time
#random thoughts
#adventure time
#okay so in the original show there were very few characters of color because humans are basically extinct
#and ive seen some people discuss how at appropriates aave despite the mc being a white boy
#and (more importantly in my opinion) most of the staff being white
#and then in fionna and cake they decided to make marshall lee physically black
#and you'd think his mom'd be white right? because marceline's whole thing is her being divided between two halves of herself
#which could be sooo an allegory for growing up biracial
#but like? they made his mom also black?
#which i assume they did because they didn't want to make it a 'white parent is toxic towards their black child' storyline
#buuuut since marceline's physical characteristics were tied to her demon bloodline and marshall obviously takes after his mom...?
#like you could make the argument that they're implying SOMETHING there
#and adding onto the theme of characters voiced by white actors being voiced by poc in the genderswap (marshall y cake)
#DID YOU KNOW FLAME PRINCE IS VOICED BY HANNIBAL BURESS???
#which like. i was thinking about how flame princess's role in the show seemed kinda like
#okay so there's this video by harriyanna hook about the disposable black girlfriend trope in svtfoe specifically
#and flame princess (from what i remember dude i gotta rewatch at) seemed to have been used by finn narratively to grow as a character?
#and also there's the whole 'pb stealing a part of fp's culture for what she claims is the greater good' thing
#and her dad's voiced by the president from rick and morty. and he's a strict dad who won't let his daughter date a white boy
#(which is SUBVERTED when he reveals he keeps her contained for safety purposes or whatever but it's still there)
#at is kind of fucked with parents in general tbh
#god i need to rewatch it. analyze it
