The Earl of Lemongrab is a sour boy who loves to scream UNACCEPTABLE and give 1 MILLION YEARS DUNGEON! Today we're looking into the story of Princess Bubblegum's creation and his twisted lemony history. From creation in a lab to eating his clone to becoming a tyrant, and ultimately, to his path of self-discovery. We'll also briefly talk about the story of Lemonhope. We hope you find it ACCEPTABLE!

Lemongrab really did have a deep arc and evolution. Especially on "the mountain" where he struggles with his own existence, being neglected by his mother, having caused so much pain to his earldom and brother and being a sour greasy lemon, he just could not accept himself. He tried to escape his problem by disolving into matthew where he would supposedly become a step toward the perfect being without having to deal with his own existence but on that journey he managed to realize perfection is unatainable an infinite stair and thus destroyed the false promise of perfection amd accepted himself for what he was, even filling the hole in his ceiling with lemonjohn grease, a part of himself and proudly admits he is grease. That is actually a really powerful and inspiring message and journey for this character 🍋

I actually understood the logic behind a large amount of his decisions. His intense punishments come from a misunderstanding about how you should handle that stuff: he likely believes that in order to prevent crime, you must metaphorically hit it as hard as possible- so anyone who breaks his rules is given exorbitant punishments because he thinks it'll deter crime. He watches people sleeping because he believes there is a distinct lack of order- he's not fapping to it, as it were: he's trying to police people. He believes that food should not be on a blanket because it'll make it hard to clean- because eating on bed blankets does that.

@TheDuckGenie 2 жыл бұрын

I always felt he watched people because even though he doesn't get along with people, he still craves having the feeling of someone understanding him and is overall starved of meaningful relationships. When they're asleep, he can't be driven away or annoyed.

I think the writers of the show based Lemongrab's personality on the symptoms of autism. A lot of the subtext in the show is that he can be accepted and accommodated despite his differences from most of the candy people. Another facet of his character is the agony of being an imperfect creation. He's clearly pained by the fact that he was made different from the other candies, and alternates between blaming himself and blaming God (princess bubblegum, in his case). His story is one of learning to accept that you've been created as a flawed being.

It has been a long time since I’ve watched adventure time so feel free to correct me if I’m missing a vital piece of information about princess bubblegum’s character. Doesn’t that make her a massive hypocrite in the Netty episode. She explains to Finn that her brother is different, but they don’t have to understand it, just accept it. But she doesn’t treat lemongrab with any acceptance, and mainly does what she can to get him out of sight out of mind.

@zxtreme31 3 жыл бұрын

This retrospective made me realize another nice touch of lemongrab’s development during the end of season montage. During his journey notice at 8:22 that princess bubblegum is shown wanting to play catch with lemon grab (with a glove as a ball but that’s not important just typical adventure time cuteness). Look again at 11:08 what’s on lemongrab’s hand. I think he’s come to accept his relationship with bubblegum or maybe learned to give himself what he couldn’t get from bubblegum . I hope he doesn’t show up in distant lands. I really like how his story ended.

On the start of the episode where he climbs the moutain we see that he alreadt sleeped with a baseball glove on his hand at that point, so i think that PB playng baseball with the glove is an explanation for that, he sleeps with a glove cause his deepest dream is to be accepted by his creator.

Lemongrab 2 was always the kinder of the two Lemongrabs. It's even shown early in the Lemonhope episode when Lemongrab 2 cuts his food in half to feed a lemon whose food was taken by the gluttonous Lemongrab 1. I think this shows he was made with more kindness than the original when PB learned how she screwed up the first time around

@Samaru163 Жыл бұрын

I think the reason why he was kind is because, unlike Lemongrab 1, Lemongrab 2 grew up with someone. He wasn't just shut in a castle: he had another Lemongrab to talk to and work off of. This made him more considerate because he had someone else to think about rather than himself. I see him as look at what Lemongrab could have been if Bubblegum spent more time with him or gave him friends in his youth, which makes Lemongrab 1's comment of "we hate you," in the grables episode sting so much more. Lemongrab 1 hates 2 because 2 is a reminder of everything he is not.

I always found intriguing the fact that all the society is based around lemons, plants, people, animals, all lemons, yeah, the original lemongrabs are tecnhically made out of sugar and candy, but all the people that live in the lemon city are made out of the lemons grew there. Its fascinating to think that they are what they grow, what they eat and what the ride

As a neurodivergent person I find Netty and lemongrab to be very relatable. I too do not like picnics on the ground I mean do people just sit down and eat on a damn blanket with ants and bacteria!? I think that Nettie is an example of a neurodivergent person who has nothing wrong with them and just has a way of coping that might be abnormal to neurotypical people. Lemon grab is an example of a flawed neurodivergent person who has trouble grasping reality. It takes him a while to learn how to be with other people and I understand that.

@MissyMona 2 жыл бұрын

What's interesting about picnics is they were originally meant to be treated as a sort of luxury activity that was a showcase of wealth. Once it became more common it stopped being seen that way. So, on one had it's treated as a thing that is meant to be a social activity, but there also used to be classiest implications as well.

Okay so I know nothing about Adventure Time and I also think he's a creep but here me out: Lemongrab is an allegory for a mentally disabled child who was neglected (and grows up into a horrible dictator). Right from the start, Lemongrab has great issues (obviously), but besides being annoying, this video doesn't give a lot of introspection as to who he was before PB disowned him. After a while, he turned, well, sour, because all that neglect was probably traumatizing for him. Through his life and later incarnations, however, he learns how to overcome his trauma and become a better person. Am I just an outsider who's making broad assumptions in the name of awareness/acceptance? Maybe, but it doesn't hurt to voice your observations.

I always viewed him as an allegory for a child with autism. He’s strange and no one understands him, and his mother isn’t sure what to do with him. It describes how not to handle the situation. Casting him off to live alone and not interact with others made him sour and bitter, pampering his every whim and will makes him greedy and foul, what it takes is giving him responsibility and having him interact with others to make him a happy healthy individual

Good summation of a good character. One point I'd like to make, though. The Lemon people didn't dislike Lemonhope. It was just Lemongrab who disliked him. Ultimately it was the entirety of the Lemon People who helped Lemonhope to escape. I don't think they would have done that if they disliked him as much as Lemongrab does.
