THE LICH: ALL SCENES || Adventure Time + Fionna & Cake Spoilers [By  

Imma be honest I still doesn't conceptually get Sweet Pea lol

@@mattmillsmpmbasically a walking meat prison for the lich

Its so bizarre how like he's sorta like a hive mind of some sort-

He’s essentially a concept

i find it amazing that the cosmos throughout time is both one singular entity and an infinite number of entities

"I am THE END"

" F A L L "

​@@StillChristoff"And I have come for you, Finn." Just 🥶

*immediately becomes a baby*

but than he keeps getting defeated he does always come back though

This is actually noted in the pilot notes for the pitch for Adventure time, on the lich’s page, the first line is literally “The Lich king is not funny. The Lich king embodies absolute evil”

His art style is often very different too, way more detailed and with more hard lines. He looks striking compared to the other characters

The Lich is an absurdly hardcore villain for a family friendly show like AV

@@nateds7326or maybe the one to perfectly balance it

Before there was time there was nothing

Lich's first appearance: YOU ARE A JOKE TO ME! Lich's third appearance: You are strong child The Lich hand: you've bested me in many worlds child. But I always return.

​@@partylrd8699I like to imagine that if the litch saw fin again he would say something like "You INSOLENT child, of all my enemies you are by far the one that annoyed me the most"

@@airplanes_aren.t_real nah I feel like the lich has too much respect for Finn to say that he would probably just say. " so you've returned to slay me haven't you child?"

Which is odd cause the Lich should be more aware of Finn's potential. The Lich was a catalyst comet, as was Finn.I would have thought the multi-dimensional creature with deep knowledge of the workings of the universe would have some idea of that.

@@luckas221a I feel like prime litch was more aware of this that's why he manipulated fin to complete his plan so he wouldn't stop him and why in the citadel he went full darkness devil on fin while respecting his resolve Farmworld litch is more arrogant as he is the only one with his level of power in the world and after the multiverse hand he can rest assured his plans will prevail somewhere Farmworld litch is like if the litch never lost the euphoria after wishing for the death of all life

He's like the G-Man of Half life. Rare appearances but when they happen, oof.

He made every second count

@@damsen978 The Lich being the G-Man of Adventure Time is not something I would have ever conceived of, yet I can’t help but strongly agree the second I saw this.

He's like Darth Vader before the Kenobi show

I find that the characters who appear the least have the greatest power in every scene. The lich, Bill Cypher, what ever that deer one was.

Power Word: Stun

The Janitor from scrubs also has this power and he is a universal threat.

*FALL!*

He’s physically unable to leave the time room, so he’s simply waiting for any opportunity

​@mystr0696 not necessarily true, he can leave, he just chooses not to. The reason? Peppermint says something along the lines of "why isn't he killing ALL OF US?" Death himself doesn't even object and he's right next to Peppermint, nor prismo, because the lich can't kill, he can't leave until he sees an opportunity. Another reason why the lich is far more dangerous then many think, death and prismo himself don't object to Peppermints worry with "We can take care of him" they know he's really just as powerful even if in different ways. Death even fears him, the lich is underrated inverse power wise tbh

@@Reos-Domain Which is why the *writing* had to nerf him so Finn was at least an actual opponent and not easily discarded like Billy way past his best by date. -And why any death battle matchup should remove that handicap so he actually gets to rip and tear.-

@@wildfire9280 Or at least, so that Finn could always be at the right place and the right time to kill him.

@@Reos-Domain yeah the lich even indirectly killed old death by making new death bite him. thats really crazy to think about

HOLY SHIT WAIT I NEVER NOTICED THAT!!! GOOD SPOT!!! AND GOOD DESIGN CHOICE!!!!

Minus the laughing

they reused his pain sound

Might be a metaphor for finns ego and id Litch represents his identity as a hero Bubblegum represents his desire

Because "You're too young!"

Considering all the shit shes done I could say this is accurate

His self-esteem's so low because of PB, he thinks the Lich has a better chance with her. Really messed up

there’s this theory that the LICH use the bear To skin billy alive

@@InexorablyWill …

Honestly it just reminds me of ytp and I makes me laugh

@@InexorablyWill that theory is flawed, the lich takes over corpes and controls them as a ghost, he doesn't have an actual body of his own. we see this with farm world jake so the correct answer is lich is puppeting billy's corpse.

@@chronic-joker nah he killed him

So true

no sir his best appearance is him wearing Billy’s skin

Not at all, what? Billy Lich is just straight up better

I think its cause its really hard to animate to them. First lich is definitly has a lot of design. My favorite was jake lich, billy lich is just kinda a dude with half of lich's face on it.

@@littlemoth4956 Both are better than the ‘naked’ horned skeleton, Sweet P looks more imposing than that design.

Fall.

Fall@@EgTheBoi

Autumn

Fall is kinda chilly

​@@tshandcannon548Fall

Based OneShot enjoyer

That is cool

It's really interesting that to the litch ice kings powers are just that, basic ice magic, he is no king to him

He calls him ice wizard because he believes he is the reincarnation of the ice elemental.

I think it's even more interesting if you think of all those Tetris blocks as a Lich themselves. Considering I have absolutely no idea what happened in the show, this is my head canon lmao.

Well all 3 variants are still alive technically first the og lich is the one who got turned into tetris he is still alive he just got imprisoned in the hollow block made from his own bone second the Jake wish copy of lich/sweet p is a giant in a 1000 or so years he just got a program reboot to be a normal being and lastly jakelich from farmworld is a hand in multiple universes in some he succeeded in some he fell in og universe he is now stuck in death world but he is technically still alive

Yeah he’s in every conceivable universe now or something like that. My headcannon is that every single one of those blocks in the golb area is a version of the lich. Something that golb doesn’t like since he wants to spread chaos NOT death. But the lich always wins in the end.. He IS The end

@shiver8082 though he is the end , he seems to be immortal ie, never ending

​@@monkeywithdaticket1987in death he is technically still alive. Only in adventure time does this sentence make sense XD

sounds weird be the end is never ending Once the end is there its eternity until something else happens In this case the universe is recreated with the lich once more returning I feel like the lich will get rid of golbs job of spreading chaos to existing things To nothing since the lich will win I feel like the lich will have a realisation across the multiverse that him winning maybe makes golb useless until another unjverse is created Golb is still unbelievably powerfull... *But the lich is beyond strenght*......

Also remember, that isn't golb that the lych dedicated all of his efforts to him, that's Betty, no longer the god the lych was working for

the funny thing is that after Sweet P slayed Lich the last time the dude DIED. Like literally died and went to death realm like every living creature does. That means he's not on GOLB or Orgalorg level of power, he's just a jerk like vampire king from vampire universe. And the reason why he felt that bad is also the sign what he's not anything even compared to GOLB, just a random lost soul who got some power but still lost to Billy, Finn and Sweet P

This right, this is exactly how I interpreted the Lich. He was never an actual force of nature but a zealot who proclaimed himself to understand the will of Golb… when he couldn’t have been further from the truth. In the end he wasted his life and I can’t say that he didn’t deserve it, no one demanded he do any of the things he did.

Hmm. Remember seeing this comment somewhere else.

Ron Perlman always had thing for bringing out scariest and darkest supervillains in the climatic spotlight of action, Adventure and drama 🎭

i mean the lich can die seeing the farm world episode, if it wasnt for his hand dissapearing he wouldve died, and my guess is that either the teris blocks are the liches that won or people who annoyed golb, making golb trap them forever

He is the green comet, after all even if he dies, another reincarnation of destruction would take his place like the same thing happens with Finn (The blue comet). It's a endless cycle, Lich destroying every lifeform like he did using his wish was his best outcome and still he become depressive and completely hollow of any motivation or goal. In the end he is just a sad existence fated to fail regardless of his outcome and effort put in. @@vavalaz

No, the Lich who extinguished all life is the original lich that make the wish to end all life in that universe in Prismo's room. The Lich who wished for Finn and Jake safely returned to OOO was the one in the alternative universe created by Prismo. So the original Lich is the same as the alternative one, basically not powerful enough to be scared by Golb. Betty Golb could obliterated him in a note if she wanted to but she just didn't.

I think the implication is less that he is formidable and more than GOLBetty is still a chaotic being. It may not be their design.

Ooo prime wasn’t wiped because the Lich wish got its own reality. That’s why we see the lich fading away in the wish room

@@kingtreedede7303 that's what I literally just said...first sentence no less....

@@kanewilson8624I meant to say wasn’t wiped my bad xd

@@kingtreedede7303 Ooo prime was wiped of all life until Jake changed the Lich's wish, thus Ooo prime was split into two seperate realities in order to NOT make a paradox. The Lich still got his wish fulfilled, but as Prismo himself said: “Monkey's paw.”

@@kanewilson8624 I suppose it’s up to interpretation. Since by the wish logic the lich should’ve had his own Ooo that’s devoid of life but the way the handled it made it seem like Ooo actually got wiped out.

It makes sense that Ron doesn't remember voicing him, literally, only says his own name once. So it's a little understandable, granted I think it's hard not to remember voicing a character that badass.

@@Buff_HelpyHe’s also probably never watched Adventure Time itself

Copy and paste

Man he really failed his god.

And this is the other half what people failed to noticed.

He craved a perfect balance when that was impossible and an Afront to the one he Admired and worshiped. Such a good villian

Well the lich served is not Golb but betty. Too bad simon didnt know that the Golb in front of him is his lover.

Tbh, he was kinda perfect until they had to show him talking to golbetty like that, kind of disappointed.

kinda makes him lamer tbh

@@benjaminb6678 fr

bruh, he works like a machine but he's still a being (primordial one), even if he served one purpose, and even if he were just to function as a machine yall simply look at it in the context that he can only do one thing, which in the context he has to end all life and create a means of achieving that goal, the fact he was conscious enough to not be satisfied makes perfect sense. And yall say he's weak like he didn't lose to like the strongest character in the verse. By that logic gojo must be weak.

@@themarshian5124 I don't think he's the strongest character, GOLB is obviously matched by like 5 entities in the adventure time lore. 1: The Cosmic Imagination, who created GOLB as It is literally the sentient multiverse according to the Enchiridion, most likely Prismo, and Scarabs "boss." 2: The Enchiridion, The Book which is not a book, The Enchiridion is actually a nigh-omnipotent omniscient entity that takes the form of a book, and in its own words, it will judge the multiverse at the end of all things. 3. Coconteppi, The Primordial Monster. Who is the originator of all magic, (which would technically include the Cosmic Imagination, as the cosmic imagination is MADE OF magic.) Coconteppi has magic in its most primal and chaotic state, and can cast any spell it can think of. Some spells in adventure time have union which GOLB is weak too. 4. The Lich himself, The Lich is stated to be equal to Hunson Abadeer, who considers The Lich his only and equal rival, Hunson is stated to be a primordial monster in the Ooo Encyclopedia (might not be canon, unsaid.) And literally one shot GOLB in the comics, The Lich should be equal to that. And The Lich is a catalyst comet of which scales to Finn, who could defeat The Primordial Elementals, who existed "before all this." according to one of them in the comics. This show literally nerfed The Lich. 5. The Purple Catalyst comet, The Purple Catalyst comet said it exist "in a new mode of existence," meaning it could merge with The Cosmic Imagination on a whim. The Purple Catalyst comet scales to The Blue Catalyst Comet (Finn) and The Green Catalyst Comet (The Lich.)

Ron Perlman was a great choice

​@@Satherianhe really is, doesn't appear much but man he is memorable

This Lich just made a wish to end all life and that was it, there was no effort or journey just the end result and thus no fulfillment. The one that gets taken to the Citadel had a much better plan in terms of spreading chaos by releasing all the inter-dimisonal criminals to do his bidding. Had The Lich succeeded with this plan he would've likely been more satisfied, and meeting Golb would've gone completely different for him.

The thing is that the lich who got sent to the citadel is a copy made from Jake's wish and the one who got tetrised is the og lich this way prismos rule of 1 wish per creature still applies

@@monkeywithdaticket1987 There is no copy, they are both the original, Just like how Finn and Finn sword are both technically the original Finn or Jake and Prismo's new host are both the original Jake.

Well the lich jake's wish created ended up being imprisoned inside the sweet pea.Not any better fate than the tetris block imo

@@qwaeszrdxtfcgvbqwaeszrdxtf5733 But at least he can briefly take control of sweet and regain the mobility from Time to Time.

You would be too if you were the lich.Dude's fires just got stopped by a stupit sweater

Golb doesn't care about The Lich. That's all u need to know who's stronger or more "important" to the story

@@thorn3802strength is irrelevant when it comes to importance

It's kind of funny if you consider that the litch sees himself as not a cog but a wheel and in the end he was alone atop a mountain of broken bodies

@@airplanes_aren.t_real its even funnier since Lich called Death the creature without purpose and thats exactly what he had become at the end.

@@user-ld9ic9bh4d and then he became a tetris piece, truly masterfull storytelling

What's funny is that he isn't chaos. Death, in a way, in order. The natural order of all things ends in death. He sought the ultimate order thinking it was pure chaos

Golb is literally chaos manifested. The Lich completely failed to understand what that means.

We never got to see his true form His true form is basically what connects him to all his vessels and avatars He is a god that lives in a higher form of existence, and not in this physical plane of existence

Well he more sorta skinned him...

and literally wear him...

He skinned him alive…

Facts

i think the other way

What’s crazier is that the lich killed the original world

Which episode is it? That is so cool

​@@mmxxiii9503"Billy's Bucket List"

Well,i hope everyone know that Farmwolrd!Lich hand fallen in every multireality😨

That is s good point and explains why Golb didn't listen in the first place

Maybe it's just that by killing all life you are left with no chaos, just... nothing. In order to have chaos you need life

*" It's a kids show "* they said...

Ron Perlman

He is not so much a physical fighter, but a spell caster, and he has time on his side . He can stop fin and Jake so simply with the word fall, it really showed how much he chooses to hold back

Prismo said it was disastrous enough that his boss would be mad. You don’t think someone like the Scarab would clean it up? Not to mention, the lich hand isn’t capable of much, and was likely killed many times over by Finn, if not by others

I assume the multiplied Lich hands happened way before Fionna’s universe was “canonized” so that’s why

If the show gets a second season then I can see the Lich hand appearing for an episode tbh

​@@littlemoth4956thing is The Scarab ignored Alot and only did few that caught his intrest, Mainly prismo due to being jealous

They didn’t forget. The hands simply weren’t relevant to the story they wanted to tell in the season.

That’s the great Pearlman for you

Real

Anything specific or just his general character arc? If you don't mind me asking

@@airplanes_aren.t_real yelling at God for answers after following misled teachings for years feels really familiar to me

@@Laloca-rj1qd oh I see, thanks for responding, glad you made it through tho

@@airplanes_aren.t_real yeah

Yup. And when you complete your task he just turns you to a tetris block and has you float beside him in an eternal void outside of time :)

​@@PR1ME98probably no one understood Golb's objective, The Lich destroyed all life, that didn't create chaos, it ended it, if there is nothing left, then everything its calm, and Golb literally wants the opposite to calm, chaos.

@@ElGokuPESero123 thats what i was thinking when he said that he completed his objective. I was like “If he completed it then he’s just a lone soul. It’s peaceful because no one else is there to stir up trouble.” Which is kind of counterproductive for golb.

And Fiona and cake we don’t know that he’s actually dead. Who knows maybe he can come back

Best comment of all time

That's my main problem with him tbh Like it feels that every time he appears the higher-ups at cartoon network just had to be all like "thus guy is too cool and scary for the kids, get him out!!" and do they had to which sucks

@@Genesukt64 This is definitely reflected in his redesign after his first initial appearance

@@ToxicCoffeeTM I personally love his redesign tbh, it makes him more interesting with the whole "possessing billy" thing

​@@Genesukt64it was basically plot

I like it because even when he's stopped he can always come back

Goes to show you don’t fuck with Golb… unless you’re Simon

​@@Hamanthabut the lich is more powerful than Simon

Did golb kill him fr? Cause the lich will just come back

@@J22955 no I’m trying to make a Golbetty joke Like no one fucks with Golbetty, except for Simon who would like- You know

@@J22955 this Lich ain’t coming back from Tetri-fication

yeah but just think that in that universe he committed infanticid instead of mass murder or genocide

I think there's like 3 versions of that scene, on the streaming platform i watched it on he said something along the lines of: "Everywhere you will meet oblivion. You, your family, everyone will die, at once. Ground to nothing, beneath the wheel."

btw i got a recording of the alternate version i watched ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wSMgPlM3_DY.htmlsi=kNox6Eq9M3aQ1E5u
