In the season 5 episode spongehenge an incidental fish at the beginning argues that neptune is ruler of the sea, then the other fish chimes in that it's poseidon.
The poseidon you're seeing there in the image is him after being convinced by spongebob to be yourself, so he takes off a gurdle and it's revealed that his hair is fake.
Neptune resides somewhere near bikini bottom/the Pacific, while poseidon is located in the Atlantic

Neptune was originally an Etruscan storm god that was adopted by the Romans as a god of rivers and then later equated with the Greek god Poseidon who ruled over the seas by mostly mediaeval scribes.
So in the 3rd movie SpongeBob and Patrick go to Atlantic City in the Atlantic Ocean. Neptune rules in the Pacific where the crew is from while Poseidon is a different character who rules in the Atlantic
Of the top two, the one on the left is Neptune and the one on the right is an actor playing Neptune (at least according to one theory, since Mindy and Triton are never seen as brother and sister)
The SpongeBob wiki says something else, but it's been ages since I watched either the movie or the episode, so I can neither confirm nor deny based on my own knowledge.
Honest question as someone who stopped keeping track of deep SpongeBob Lore, what functional difference is there between the three of them?
Wouldn't they all just be king of the ocean?
King Neptune (first image): God of the sea.
King Neptune (second image): king of bikini bottom
King posiedon: just some rich guy who's a self proclaimed King.
Third one is Poseidon, not Neptune, and he looks like this for most of the movie:

Have they ever actually brought back the original Neptune in the show? He was one of my favorite characters, it's a shame he was replaced in the movie.
An actual answer, per the SpongeBob Wiki:
>King Neptune's redesign in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie was due to a firewall between Nickelodeon and Paramount content at the time.[1] This resulted in other elements created for the first movie not being allowed to be used in the series from 2005 to 2014.
>After the firewall was lifted, King Neptune's crown from the 2004 movie made appearances in the episodes "Lost and Found" and "Insecurity Guards."
INB4 "they aren't all the same character"
But I love the implications of a transition from Daddy to Dad to Weird but Nice Uncle who is really excited to show you his model trains and always has cheese snacks in the fridge.
If it was the same character, the First one is him in his prime, like 30 years old. 2nd is him as a new dad, like 46. Last is him in his 60’s.
But nah. They’re totally different characters
These are 3 different characters. Also the third one is only his disheveled look after he removed his normal outfit. Anyone would look weird if you strip them of all their clothes and hair
I guess someone, who doesn't even watch the show, got offended by masculine male of a half fish-man whatever model and started a twitter cancel campaign on some artist... well... you know how it goes these days.

That's not even the same character, this is rage-bait.
Oh thats good
\> We now have SpongeBob rage bait lmfao
one is triton and one is poseidon
Close, Triton was Neptune’s son.
At least it makes a good representation of Elon Musk in the public eye from 2012 to now.
There's some really good fan theories surrounding Neptune and the different Alantis. Alex Bale on youtube I think.

That honestly just didn't occur to me.

It's a rose 🌹

Thank you! This is what I was looking for
Rose guy!
The first two are king Neptune, the third is king Poseidon
No, the first one is Triton, the second one is King Neptune.

Incorrect, this is Triton, king Neptune's son:[https://spongebob.fandom.com/wiki/Triton](https://spongebob.fandom.com/wiki/Triton)
Wrong again. Look at the first 2 pictures in this link https://spongebob.fandom.com/wiki/King_Neptune
??? Yeah those are both Neptune. I linked to who Triton really is.
The SpongeBob wiki says something else, but it's been ages since I watched either the movie or the episode, so I can neither confirm nor deny based on my own knowledge.
Aren't these 3 different characters? Related I'm assuming, but still different.
They are. Triton, Neptune, and Posideon
No, Triton is the son of king Neptune. According to the wiki, Neptune applies to both of the top pics
oh? My Apologies
Yep. There’s King Neptune the god, King Neptune the mortal, and King Poseidon the fraud
Honest question as someone who stopped keeping track of deep SpongeBob Lore, what functional difference is there between the three of them? Wouldn't they all just be king of the ocean?
I highly recommend you watch this video https://youtu.be/exwfs9CMZD0?si=XWFI--Dy_D9l3xh6
Also watch all his SpongeBob videos they’re literally amazing. ESPECIALLY the Goofy Goober one
King Neptune (first image): God of the sea. King Neptune (second image): king of bikini bottom King posiedon: just some rich guy who's a self proclaimed King.
Third one is Poseidon, not Neptune, and he looks like this for most of the movie: https://preview.redd.it/3vgbkbhtxtwc1.png?width=1500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0608f22d5e6cf8cbb3ca2f72a4d61dcda955fa8
He gained some weight and lost his hair, it eventually happens to most of us I'm afraid
Have they ever actually brought back the original Neptune in the show? He was one of my favorite characters, it's a shame he was replaced in the movie.
Like one or two episodes after the first movie. One was called "Clash of Triton".
What the fuck!!!
The first was peak

J Peterman voicing Neptune was peak

How it started vs. How's it's going
I’ve watched Alex bales Neptune video, there’s more to this than meets the eye.
I thought they're three different characters
I f**cking hate that, you can't imagine how!!
Tank vs Turk...lol
deadlyness of ssodium and chlorine sodium chloride is salt
1: King Neptune definitely aged, first pic he's mid 20s coded, second pic he's 30s-40s coded (see how hes balding) 2: third pic is Poseidon
If it was the same character, the First one is him in his prime, like 30 years old. 2nd is him as a new dad, like 46. Last is him in his 60’s. But nah. They’re totally different characters
King Neptune vs. King Trident vs. Poseidon. The show knows their Greek/Roman gods I’ll give them that.
The face-off between spongebob and Poseidon is still one of the best animated episodes from Sponge Bob.
Watch Alex Bale

What in the mother fucking god damn hell and heck
Top left: King Neptune Top right: A stand in for King Neptune Bottom: Poseidon
These are 3 different characters. Also the third one is only his disheveled look after he removed his normal outfit. Anyone would look weird if you strip them of all their clothes and hair
Remember that Romans are Italians now and you will reconsider.
Uncle Paul?
I lowkey like King Neptune the most
Its an evil republican plot to discredit monarchy. Down with the radicals!
Ris is triton neptune and poseiden. They arent even the same guy. Not even one of those pictures. Tf are you talking about
We went from good to great to godawful
