>>111573729>frankly, like most plot points later on i still feel it could have been done without pushing finn to almost background character status.I mean you're not, All they really had to do was not make Finn look like dead weight half the time. I can't really remember the last time big thing he did in the series when it comes to late AT besides stopping a war that would have only been 5 minutes long before a chaos god comes down and killed them all.
>>111573927>She wore out her welcome long before Lemongrab did.True and I think most of her episodes should have been dropped and replaced by ones about someone like Finn or Jake. Hell those could have been used on Billy.
>Wasn't that a retconYeah it was, but I thought we were counting later AT as a whole. so retcons included.
>the problem comes in with them deciding to spend time on tfw no gf when he had all the potential in the world. I literally remember something along the lines of the writer saying "we don't want to give Finn upgrades/powers because we're focusing on his growth" or some dumb shit. And why did PB need more OP powers on top of her superior intellect but you can't give my boy some cool arm?Well then that's just the writers but 100% not creative and not just giving him new powers or upgrades tied to his character growth. you don't even have to drop the whole relationships drama thing. here is a few ideas I come up with using what happened in the series.
>him learning from his mistakes with FP and becoming her friend.>Finn gets more of an understanding of Fire related things and makes his own flame kingdom looking armor (something like Pic related)>Gets closer to HW and becomes her BF>She teaches him some staff about Magic and Finn learns to listen to the plants around himI know this is pretty much no different then Finn just getting a sword from Peppermint Butler but it's at least something.
