Bliss, or Blisstina was created in the same manner, but with Chemical W.

If this weren't canon to this show, this sounds like total OC material.

[up][up]

It makes me wonder if they elevated a fan fiction writer for this.

It came to me, she's voiced by the same person who does Marceline's voice. It's been awhile since I've watched Adventure Time.

Not bad all things considered.

OH MY GOD, THIS HUMOUR IS AWFUL, and the plot is so fucking ridiculous I swear it was a bad fanfic idea.

And now she's fused with Him. Like, it literally looks like her head on his wimp body.

Well now that it's over, how long you you expect her to take to push Saturn back into place? My guess is however long it takes if the writes remember/care to bring her back.

Seems like a feat the girls could've done in the space of a single episode in the old cartoon.

[up][up][up][up] Basically: The girls think Bubbles is a nutter for being committed to seeing someone they cannot. Then some old-timey fart machine gives the trio trouble, leading to Bliss showing herself. My description at the top of the page states where she came from, She has Power Incontinence. Prof is being overprotective. The little heffalump turns out to be Him. She gets fused with Him. Saturn gets used as a buzzsaw to try and rip Townsville a new one. Mojo is just barely effective in helping unfuse them. Then the GIRLS fuse and dubstomp Him to the Shadow Realm. So Once Again, the Day Is Saved, and Bliss is Bus'd.

In other words, this whole thing was a publicity stunt that is as stupid as they come by.

This is the only episode/event I've seen of it myself.

Was pretty fun. Although I could see how the meme and jokes could use more work. So far, this gives me a fun impression of the work's overall quality. I do hope she comes back, but they did a good job of keeping it in suspense so they don't have to return her till they have ideas. A big issue is her powers is heavily above the rest and makes it very difficult to balance her usage over the others. That can make plots very difficult to manage.

I do like her design, though. I didn't see the Him/elephant thing coming(mind you, I haven't seen any other episodes, so any easy clues would be lost on me). I've only seen the original show, and didn't finish it cause Netflix took it off. I mean, I knew he could shapeshift, but that doesn't mean much when you haven't seen a PPG episode for at least a year. It's easy to forget. I did like the joke costume designs, though.

[up][up]You're using the term publicity stunt wrong. They were pretty up front about this being a special.

This episode was an attention grab for a show that has gotten negative reception and less viewership.

LSBK Since: Sep, 2014
#1718: Sep 17th 2017 at 4:49:42 PM

Because a show just can't do a special that someone already has planned. Go tell that to every other show on the network. Everyone is already aware of this show.

Words have meaning firewriter.

Seems pretty obvious to me they wanted to use a concept planned for the original show, but realized having her in for multiple episodes comes with blatant writing issues(much like I said above), so a special was the better move. Now that they have her implemented, they can return her at any time they feel works. Which could potentially be never. OP characters change a lot in a show, especially if they aren't the key protagonist. One Punch Man works because it focuses on the fact he's too powerful and considers it a bad thing most of the time. I haven't seen anything in the special suggest the PPG in the reboot are OP, just strong.

Of course, I could be wrong and the show has them a bit OP. Anybody is free to correct me on that, of course~

[up] The original show had a couple fourth members (Bunny, Bullet, etc.) but they all vanished at the end too.

I'm still on last year's episodes, but so far the only old villains I can recall being brought back multiple times are Mojo and Princess.

Bliss' pet miniature elephant actually being Him is reminiscent of a bit Him pulled twice in the old show, both times to manipulate Bubbles into doing something.

As predicted. Bliss won't appear in the goddamn show as a goddamn new principle character! HAAATE!

Why hate when it was pretty much exactly what was gonna happen? Or is this another comical overreaction because people are hellbent on hating something that isn't worth their time to hate?

I think me and a lot of other people just hate this show in general due how it's a poor successor to the original show.
