Fionna and Cake is a new spin on the popular animated series  Adventure Time, which was known for its particular mix of quirky characters and fantasy story plots.

The new series, available for streaming on Max, has garnered stupendous support with its debut in September. The series is attracting interest from both long-time fans of Adventure Time and newcomers looking for a new show to enjoy.

This show takes place in a world comparable to ours. The story follows the protagonists Fionna and “Cake the Cat” and their struggles with life until the most unforeseen occurs. Due to the events of the story, this lands the protagonists in the Land of Ooo. Ooo Has seen some changes from where the story of Adventure Time left off.

As they traverse through Ooo they find themselves starting to like it there, feeling more at home than when they were in their own reality. This, however, isn’t supposed to happen. Fionna and Cake were always supposed to be in their reality, and this leads to the Scarab going on a hunt for them.

Fionna and Cake go on an adventure through different universes found in the original Adventure Time but traveling on a different route.

As a longtime Adventure Time fan, the new series gave me a nostalgic feeling due to the fact that it brought back some characters from the original show and features a few throwback references to the original.

The show is a joy to watch. It really brought back some memories for me, especially watching it with my sister. I appreciate that the producers got Rebecca Sugar, who worked on the original Adventure Time, to sing a song for it.

It’s also nice that Fionna and Cake share the same sense of humor as the original, enhancing the nostalgia factor even more. I would recommend this to any fan of the original series because of its plethora of returning characters and voice actors from the original. However, for those not familiar with Adventure Time I would say that it can still be quite enjoyable but you’ll miss out on some small things if you didn’t watch it before. Otherwise, I still believe that it is a worthy watch.
