"This magic keeps me alive, but it's making me crazy. And I need to save you, but who's going to save me?"
Adventure Time was a show that I grew with. As a kid I'd always be hyped for the next episode, and I'd always be excited to see it on TV.
The show is extremely dark for a kid's cartoon, and really existential. One of those dark themes is explored by through one of my favorite characters, Simon Petrikov (the Ice King). For such a light hearted character, he had a tragic backstory. The crown slowly got him to lose his mind, which reminds me of dementia, something that I've seen first hand in my family. The character hit quite close to home, thus I made this edit. Hope y'all enjoyed!

Lowkey I feel like not enough people appreciate the lore and how mature this cartoon was
For real dude
Exactly!!
Well, back then, the audience was just kids, i'm guessing the reason people seem to understand the mature tones of the show later on was most likely because those same kids grew. plus, cartoons back then wasnt really as respected
I'm so happy. Cartoons as a whole are growing.
It’s because most of the show isn’t deep and is random nonsense lol
@@tristinsmith1220 the lore starts in season 1 episode 1
It always gets me when he says “crazy crazy crazy in your face all the time… all the time…” that’s so heartbreaking
I've seen this multiple times for that exact reason.
💀
I just watched the episode when he said that and I laughed because of the context.
Basically, Ice King has wizard eyes that can see things that aren't there, and it was heavily implying that it was the same hallucinations when you're smoking weed. Laughed like an idiot, ngl.
@@TheFoolAltAccountweed doesn't make most people hallucinate...
@@TheFoolAltAccountWeed makes you docile. Acid and powder on the other hand..
2:31
Finn always sees him as a villain kidnapping princesses in his younger years. But after Finn witnessed this video of what he was, and what made him into the freak he’s known today in that timeline, fin’s perspective to the ice king changed. Finn sees him as a human trapped in insanity by the crown’s curse, begging for salvation from anyone.
I also think Finn didn't perceive Ice King as a human before that tape. All he had to shape his perception were Jake, the candy people, the many monsters and creatures of Ooo, and so on. He must've seen Ice King as -- for lack of a better word -- another creature/humanoid-but-not-human entity within Ooo. A creature that's cartoonish and comical and the antagonist to the hero.
So I'd like to think that after that tape, Finn realized a faint hope of being able to interact with a fellow human, like how he was excited to find Susan and the Hyoomans. Then again, I've forgotten the many episodes of AT and this was probably well enough described in an episode lolll.
Finn is simple and childish but Simon.
Simon is one of the most saddest and tragic characters in adventure time.
Not just adventure time, cartoon history
@@lokiorfern5274 real
I think fern lore is more tragic
maybe ever
No, FarmWorld Marcelline is hight there too.
the fact that finn is so compassionate to ice king because he saw a version of himself fall to the crown as well...
Pov : you realize the reason simon never saw betty again was because she went 800 years into the future with future simon
The crown being a metaphor for addiction is so beautiful and heartbreaking
It ties in to several things.
The means for the person to use it are like a drug.
Long-lasting effects of the Crown are like a degenerative disease, like dementia.
And there is also ploy on fate in there. Since most people who used the Crown end up in uncanny circumstances and have no choice or idea what they are getting themselves in to.
It's more like a dementia and/or alzheimer sickness not an addiction, no adicction will keep you so aware that your losing yourself, losing your mind and those can be hereditary so you have nothing to do since both have no cure too
@JenCloud Stronger forms of addiction, like addiction to stimulants or opioids, do cause a decline in cognitive abilities over time. They also cause personality changes. A lot of changes that occur over the years are not reversible despite rehabilitation.
@@JenCloud that as well I just mean't that he feels like he has to keep using it to protect him and marcy and eventually will die without it
@@themanwithtomanyeyes8282 yes whenever an addiction becomes to strong you can lose who you once were
Big props to Simon’s voice actor Tom Kenny. The delivery of his “crazy, all the time” line at 2:31 is amazing.
No wayyy, he's the same voice actor as SpongeBob???? How did I never put two and two together??? He's so good at his work. Damn.
Pure existential teror of loosing mind is too relatable. I can't think of simon without sympathy.
There is something oddly beautiful in the chaos
### The Saga of Simon Petrikov
#### The Discovery of the Crown
In days of old, in realms of ice and lore,
Simon Petrikov, a scholar, sought for more.
Artifacts of power, relics from the past,
Led him to a crown with magic vast.
He placed it on his brow, a moment's whim,
But felt the cold seep deep within.
Whispers echoed, secrets dark and dire,
Promising power, a sinister fire.
The crown's grip tightened, his mind began to sway,
From the man he was, he slowly slipped away.
Voices called, and visions blurred his sight,
Transforming Simon's days into endless night.
#### The End of Civilization
The world around him crumbled, society fell,
In the wake of madness, Simon’s heart would swell.
Civilization’s end came with cold and strife,
As the Ice King's curse became his life.
He wandered through the ruins, lost and forlorn,
A king of ice, in a world reborn.
The sky turned gray, the ground was ever cold,
And Simon’s tale of sorrow was retold.
#### Raising Marceline
Amidst the chaos, a child he found,
Marceline, alone, with no one around.
He took her in, despite his cursed mind,
A bond of love, so pure and kind.
He raised her through the darkened days,
Guiding her through the icy maze.
A father’s love, in a world so stark,
Became a beacon, a tiny spark.
#### Regaining His Memory
Years did pass, and memories would fade,
Of who he was, the life he’d made.
Yet, glimpses of the past began to shine,
Fragments of Simon, through the ice, did entwine.
He remembered Betty, his love so true,
Her face, her voice, like morning dew.
Determined now, to break the crown's dark spell,
To save his wife from this icy hell.
#### Betty's Sacrifice
In the final hour, when hope seemed thin,
Betty appeared, her love within.
To save Simon, she made the ultimate plight,
Fusing with the monster, to end the blight.
Her sacrifice, a heartbreaking grace,
Freed Simon from the cursed place.
Though freed, his heart was heavy with pain,
For Betty’s loss, the love that would remain.
#### Peaceful Last Days
In the aftermath, Simon found peace,
A tranquil life, his anguish ceased.
No longer the Ice King, his mind was clear,
Yet he remembered those he held dear.
With Gunther, his loyal penguin friend,
They wandered together, till the very end.
In the land of Ooo, beneath the stars so bright,
Simon’s heart found solace in the night.
He’d sit and remember, the days gone by,
The battles fought, the tears he’d cry.
But in the twilight of his final days,
He found a calm in the gentle ways.
#### The Final Reflection
So let this be a tale of love and loss,
Of a cursed crown, and the fateful cost.
Of Simon Petrikov, who lived and fought,
And the peaceful end that time had brought.
Through trials and pain, he found his way,
To the quiet of his last, peaceful day.
With memories cherished, of those he adored,
Simon’s heart, at last, restored.
“If I do things, if I do things that hurt anyone, please forgive me” dang that kinda hurt

2:03 is anyone going to talk about how heartbreaking it feels seeing him, it's like seeing Simon trying to rip out of the crown, begging for Betty to come back.
I was watching that episode the other day and the context of the scene makes it much more heartbreaking. If you don't remember please go watch it, it genuinely made me sad now that I'm grown and understand what's happening
The actual main character.
Simon's story is just sad. A man lost to madness and unaware of what he's doing. Even after he's cured of his madness he's depressed and without purpose in a world that has changed drastically, truly a man frozen in time.
Okay but fr one of the most insane plot twist in what is originally a kids cartoon (but ended up being more of a young adult cartoon)
I love how you could always see the remnants of Simon trying to find his “princess” in the first seasons and then what that actually meant. ALSO PLEASE MAKE A PART TWO FOR HIM FROM FIONA AND CAKE!!!

Ironic how this lore started as a joke and then went on to be adventure time's best character.

Simon is still the GOAT, even in Fionna and Cake, can't wait to see more of his journey.
"I wish for the power to keep Simon safe" that phrase breaks me 😢
"insanity is not malicious
it is the loss of one's self"
I hope in the new series for the Fiona and Cake, Simon could touch more on his part of what he wanted to show. Thank you for posting this amazing video.
Yeah I really hope so too! Thank you for your kind comment
It looks like it will be the case :D, his VA even said that it is the most emotional thing that he has ever recorded
10 months into the future
simon has been losing his mind more than ever before since he lost betty
and even went as far as to summon a ritual in order to see betty one more time (which only made a portal to open up on the back of his head)
"Just a normal human in an magical world." - Simon
do keep in mind this is when only 2 episodes of the show was out.
I honestly feel really bad for Simon. He didn’t want this life but the crown controls those who wear it and now we’re seeing him wanting to put it back on.
I really hope this doesn’t happen but when you’re really depressed what choice do you have?
I love the background of farm world Simon being that he would freeze his dimensions bomb. In the face of such a challenge he gave his life to save others, a truly brave and selfless man.
this is one of the realest saddest moments in cartoon history. he wanted princesses trying to find his princess.
The transition between Simon and Ice King's voices is weirdly fascinating, despite the fact it's the same VA.
Man, whoever made this must be pretty awesome and attractive!

Thank you for watching it :))
It is indeed timeless, speaking from the future
The most depressing fact about ice king. (In my opinion)
Simon petrikov had put it on his head as a joke. A JOKE! He didn’t know. He couldn’t have known. The moment It touched his head he was already in too deep. He’s in a prison in his own mind. The crown has a curse. A curse created by the original gunter. That’s how he saw his owner. And he wished to be like him. At the cost of his sanity.
omg u r right- all of that was caused by A FREAKING JOKE
The best type of story telling for a character. Always the it was a mistake or it happened by chance
1:33
This is heartbreaking, i cant control my tears
Same...
I shead a tear everytime
The part that got me is Simon saying "I don't know when it will end....I'm scared.."

That would be pretty crazy
@@MuhammadUmair-gh2kklow key not gonna lie it would have been bazoonkers
Simon and Betty is just true love, both of them spent every moment that they could since betty went through that time portal to bring the other back, betty trying to bring simon's memories back/out and simon trying to get betty back, they used everything that they could think of, and niether of them was ready to give up till they succeed.

Simon Petrikov is truly the character with the saddest backstory in the series, it breaks my heart when I rewatch adventure time and the spin off series. He went through so much, and had to suffer and lose everything, including his mind and memories. There’s also a clip of him flying off being really sad talking to himself saying something along the lines of “Why doesn’t anyone like me? Is it because I’m magic?” and the sad truth is that it is because oh his magic, the crown drove him to insanity causing him to make many many questionable life choices and made him feel even more alone in the world, if he didn’t have magic then he wouldn’t have been insane and made people scared of him and people hate him. There is so much more to his character than just a creepy old man who kidnaps princesses and I feel like not nearly enough people appreciate him and his character development and lore. He’s so underrated
Simon backstory is really a tragic story when you really think about it
Now I realize why Simon wanted to love princess bubblegum and all the other princesses. It's because he lost Betty. I finally understand.😢😭
Magic, Madness, and Sadness… all wizards in adventure time have this. It’s probably what made the lich a formidable foe to Finn and his friends
God the finale of Fionna and cake is gonna break me :,(
"For years, I was so used to taking care of you. When the crown made me forget who I was, that role was reversed. I can't imagine how that felt. You stood by my side, taking care of me for centuries."
-Simon to Marceline
(Adventure Time comics)
And to think Ice King started out as a villain of the week and turned into one of the best and most tragic parts of the entire show. Not sure what was worse. For Marceline and Betty to know who Simon once was and to watch him descend into madness unable to stop it or Simon knowing he was losing it and then being a shell of his former self.
Kinda late, but Merry Christmas to everybody! Hope you guys have had a wonderful winter break so far
i really love simon petrikov character it's really sad that adventure time didn't have much episodes with simon in it i really love this character i hope one day we get a show deticated to simon and i don't just mean like fionna and cake sipn off but whole show deticated to simon !
Who is here after Fionna and Cake episodes?
Me
1:16 Im so glad Simon, as any true scientist would, used Metric Celcius as opposed to using Fahrenheit.
Only thing is that 30 degrees celsius body temperature would be quite high if he was "lowering at a supernatural rate"
В детстве Ледяной Король казался глупым персонажем, комедийным злодеем, который всегда проигрывал добрым Фину и Джейку.
Сейчас понимаешь, что Саймон дважды потерял то, что ему было дорого больше всего, и что он столько натерпелся из-за короны.
Чем старше становишься, тем грустнее от истории Саймона...
Damn this made me cry 😭
Even in the end he still lost his Betty. Simon's story probably the saddest in AT. Can't wait to see him in fiona and cake
i want something like a novel of adventure time, based on simon petrikov or other character that can relate the 1000 years background story in a bit serious way
hazah! people understand adventure time now! took a lot but we got there in the end. idk why everyone just stopped watching the first 5 - 19 episodes in, but at least I get to see more people get inspired by Ice Kings story. He is a tragic character who put SHEER will power into not going insane, after 1000 years, that 999, is what probably did him in for good. HE STILL WASN"T A BAD PERSON! And betty, sacrificed everything for him, through those obsession's. Not even living your life at that point at all. Heartbreaking...
Dude this video feels like an insane short movie. Adventure Time lore literally goes so crazy
Low key just got sober and the crown takes on a whole new meaning. Ik it’s not what they meant when they created this show but sanity takes on different forms.
To be trapped in your own head, to push everyone away due to your trauma and PTSD episodes, and those that do stay you've damaged and hurt so much you need to be the one to walk away so they can live free...
The pain he felt for so many years I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
When you watch adventure time as a kid you relate to finn and enjoy his goofy fun personality but when watching it when you're older and watch it... You see just what's wrong with Finn and feel bad for the other characters
Marceline and Simon lore is the best part of watching the entire show again
I dont think Simon deserved what happened to him and Betty but life is life i guess kind of the entire reason why we watch shows like this.
WTF man. The meaning of the whole cartoon changed now.
I'm thinking of rewatching the whole thing.
interesting how they revised Simon and Betty at some point but after seeing the Fionna and Cake special where we SEE that betty A. wasnt his Fiance she was a student and a fan of simon, and B. SHE WENT ON THE JOURNEY WITH HIM FOR THE CROWN
This was a really great edit! Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it!!
Wow even not watching Adventure Time this had me bawling like a baby.
Adventure Time for randomly during that one episode in season 3:
After watching the Fionna and cake series this hurts way more
Good Adventure time edit, it definitely looks like insanity.
1:49 this hit hard and i honestly understand him...
This is on another level, amazing
as a long fan of adventure time i loved this show so much watching this made me cry again even after seeing the new show with simon in it im gonna miss him
This video make me cry. It's beautiful
I’m literally crying
great now i'm crying and it's not even 7
truly a masterpiece
i used to watched amv’s about Simon literally daily when i was 11
this video legitimately made me cry... thank you
Very good summary of simon's lore
You know it just occurred to me. The crown's power came from crystals that were a creatures eyes at one point. In some stories when something is made with part of an animal/person/deity or a magical being, the weapon/armor/etc keeps some of the things will/mind, so maybe part of the reason the wish "To be Master Evergreen" was imperfect and caused some insanity was because the crystal-eyed beast was spiteful about its slaying (and the stealing of its eyes). Its one possibility at least.
Wow, never realized the parallel with some of the phrases.
Ah man seeing this after watching the new fionna and cake. Just poor simon
Its crazy how a Christmas episode has so much lore
everything chaNGED when that tape first played
I’m not crying,
You’re crying!
😢
El mejor edit de Simon Petrikov
I feel like ice king and Simon have become so separate people
Most underrated and needed video on the platform.
The best character ever...
Some of the best time was watching this after school wit the squad...ahh the good old dayz.
That was a great tribute
This video is a masterpiece. Congratulations bro🤌👏
This video so...touching man
"where everybody knows your name"
The reason he never saw Betty again is because his future self made a time portal and brought past Betty into the future
compared to the pilot ice king dosent even feel like the same person lol
I love Simon. I feel I relate to him alot. The way how he feels complete abandon all the time when the princesses are taken away from him. The constant fear of losing people and that they dont truly like him. So relatable and such a tragic character.
This edit was AMAZING
This man was able to not only surpress the crowns urges for a while, he loved betty so much that the crown was intergrated with the idea of princesses, he saved all of oo by raising marciline as his own shown by feona and cake and keeping marciline safe with the crown, his wife basicaly killed golb the strongest enitiy to ever exist! was the one to find the enchiridion in the first place alongside betty and lastly in an alternate timeline stopped the bomb knowing it would kill him and survived an apocalypse with a child. This is why I love Simon
