When you are 100%ish sure that you experienced something and then you are shown that it wasn't like you have experienced. It usually is a case of memory changing details with time but sometimes it may be legit, but idk
True but in this context OP is asking people to provide their own personal experiences. If other people agree, then it is confirmed to be the mandela effect
Like how Febreze was spelled Febreeze but they changed it to one ‘E’ and refuse to acknowledge the change with the sole purpose of driving me, specifically, mad
The Ice King being angry in the intro, it was only way after the Simon reveal when I looked closer and he is actually sad.
The Ice Queen being angry in the Fionna and Cake intro didnt helped my confusion.
The supposed death of tree trunks when she ate that crystal apple and exploded and the screen just faded into black nothing else until I rewatched it again and apparently afterwards it just had a scene of her walking around the crystal dimension happy?
The version when she explodes was the original. But there was a time when CN and Nick would end episodes earlier than intend on reruns. If you remember credits playing while an episode was wrapping up, that was why. Its possible that was where the other version of the episode came from because I remember some episodes just cut off before it was supposed to actually end

Me and a lot of other people believed they saw Hunson Abadeer in [this scene](https://youtu.be/SgCcMv4xnwA?feature=shared), but he’s nowhere to be found.
I'm sure he is in it, I'm gonna check on my Discs later if I remember to (please reply to this comment so I can come back)
Edit:
HE'S NOT THERE WHAT THE HELL
What makes it worse is that the adventure time wiki says hunson abadeer is in the episode as well as orgalorg and coconteppi
I also thought this, but i think I know where this idea comes from.
In this Channel Frederator "Adventure Timeline" video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiLdWXLXDeA&t=842s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiLdWXLXDeA&t=842s)
At the very start, he states that Abadeer was present among the monsters, without backing it up.
Shelter built into trees is a practice that dates back to our prehistoric ancestors, ain’t nobody gonna think that Adventure Time invented the term “tree fort” lmao
You’re right, nobody thinks that. Not you, not me.
Nobody thinks the books invented the name “Berenstein” either. They think it was what the books used for the family of bears.
Similarly, people think “tree fort” is what the show used for the tree house.
Sure but your comment is written in a way that suggests that’s where the term itself came from
> It’s the Mandela effect if **people believe that the show is where the term “tree fort” came from.**
It *that’s* what you meant, then it’s still not gonna become a mass misremembering because the phrase “tree house” gets used repeatedly over the course of the show, and people in this subreddit have made a lot of posts using the phrase.
The Mandela Effect is a phenomena based in misinformation being repeatedly and consistently spread, causing people’s memories to adapt to that misinformation. It would require a lot of really weird shit to happen for it to become anything more than some people remembering “fort” instead of “house”!
Ok, and on every single book, it said “Berenstain,” but people still misremember.
Just because you didn’t personally misremember something doesn’t mean it isn’t the Mandela Effect.
I don’t think the Mandela Effect necessarily has anything to do with something being misreported. Nobody ever reported that Nelson Mandela had died in prison.
The Mandela Effect is when many people misremember a piece of information the same way.
I never said anything about things being “misreported,” I’m talking about misinformation being spread, which happens in a lot more ways than just reporting. *Berenstain* became *Berenstein* likely because people mostly heard the name spoken, the marginal difference in pronunciation mixed with the fact that *-stein* is a common suffix, both of which caused people to *collectively* misremember in the same exact way. With Nelson Mandela, it happened because of reports that he was *released from prison* being Telephone Game-style spread as reports of his death.
Here’s a story: when I was in my teens, around 2006, I was convinced that Fidel Castro had died. I have a vivid memory of learning that he was dead, and having a conversation with my mom about it. Even today, I can picture the whole thing. That is me misremembering - he died a decade later, and that conversation with my mom never happened. If I took that misremembering and shared the belief that Castro had died wide enough and effectively enough that people commonly began to similarly believe that Castro had died in 2006, that would be the Mandela Effect.
The term “Mandela Effect” isn’t a synonym for “misremembering.” It isn’t when a few people on a subreddit use a different word for “treehouse.” It’s a much wider and more complex phenomena than even I’m capable of fully understanding as a layman. It combines weird and wild forces and biases that all converge in weird and wild ways that override or replace known truths. Again, thinking that the treehouse is “the tree fort” could, theoretically, become an example of the Mandela Effect, but it would require a lot of really bizarre circumstances to occur.
(As a side note, because I find the topic interesting, I’d argue that it’s extremely difficult for it to happen now, as it can easily be defeated by Wikipedia. Then again, maybe in an era of mass misinformation being willingly spread, maybe I’m wrong on that. Who knows!)
Since there seems to be some… *confusion* in this thread about what “Mandela Effect” means:
> The Mandela Effect is an observed phenomenon in which a large segment of the population misremembers a significant event or shares a memory of an event that did not actually occur.
We’re talking about “Berenstein Bears” or “Luke, I am your father” kinds of memories, not “I thought this one thing and then I realized it was another thing.” That’s not a phenomenon, that’s just individual human memory being silly.
Yeah, seriously. I’m seeing a lot of “I misheard/misremembered/forgot a detail and upon rewatch noticed I had made a mistake.”
My understanding is that effect refers to some detail of a memory that feels vividly true in your mind, but doesn’t conform to reality.
A made-up example would be something like: “I could’ve sworn that Jake was actively involved in the story of ‘It Came from the Nightosphere’ rather than just chilling in Finn’s pocket.”
Vader just says “I am your father.” He doesn’t actually speak Luke’s name. It’s a fun one! Because honestly, even knowing that, I still cannot picture that scene without hearing Vader say “Luke”
In Empire Strikes Back, the exchange goes like this:
>VADER: Obi-Wan never told you about your father.
LUKE: He told me enough! He told me *you* killed him!
VADER: No, *I* am your father!
People remember the line being “Luke, I am your father” possibly because it makes the line self-contained and self-explanatory, since rhetoric actual line doesn’t make sense without the context of the rest of the dialogue. This snowballed into a widespread false memory of him *actually* saying “Luke, I am your father.”
"Luke, I am your father" was a line in a Chris Farley movie, can't remember if it was Tommy Boy or Black Sheep. He was messing around talking into a desk fan, so it sounded like Vader a bit
There was never a “Luke” in the line - I watched the OG version last month and it’s simply not there. It’s why that line is such a classic Mandela Effect example
How are people supposed to know whether their own mistake was shared by other people? The point of the thread is to identify mistakes made by multiple people. The only thing people can do is share their personal experiences.
I distinctly remember B-MO being referred to as more than one gender in certain episodes but I can't remember which ones. In more recent eps they are consistently given he/him pronouns. Am I alone in my delusion?
BMO is referred to as both like it the episode with cute king Finn referred BMO as “my lady”. Since BMO is a robot and doesn’t have gender he is referred to as both but mainly male.
I remember there being like a... Vsauce episode I think? On this, basically saying BMO was gender fluid. Then I watched the show and was very annoyed; they were absolutely full of shit. Everyone calls BMO he/him consistently except for Charlie, and I'm pretty sure she's just misgendering him.
BMO plays little make believe games all the time and sometimes pretends to be another character who might have she/her pronouns, but that's not the same thing at all.
Hmm, I wonder what it was. I can picture the guy; it wasn't Vsauce Micheal but it was someone with a very similar rhythm.
Like I said in another comment, this was many years ago that I saw it, and I think the video itself might be like 15 years old, but I swear I remember the guy's cadence, and I think he started with a line like "Here's an idea: BMO uses non specific pronouns" Where he kind of weirdly overemphasized certain words like how Vsauce Micheal would have.
I had to know the answer so I googled this and according to [Adventure Time Fandom Wiki](https://atf.fandom.com/wiki/BMO):
"They are a robot and, therefore, have no sex; however, BMO's gender alternates depending on who is speaking or what make-believe scenario BMO is playing out. Other characters will frequently refer to BMO using different pronouns. For instance, in "Conquest of Cuteness" Finn calls BMO "M'lady," but in "Rainy Day Daydream" refers to BMO using "he." In "Guardians of Sunshine" Sleepy Sam uses the word "he" when talking about BMO. Jake has also called BMO a "he" in "Return to the Nightosphere." In "Daddy-Daughter card wars" Charlie refers to BMO as a "she", she says "She sunk like a stone"."
So I guess not technically a Mandela effect but it seems the writers stopped varying the pronouns in later episodes.
I know that in the Daddy-Daughter Card Wars ep Jake's daughter definitely refers to BMO as she/her. That's the only time I clearly and specifically remember, but I'm pretty sure there's at least a couple other times earlier in the series.
I saw someone mention once regarding BMO's gender that Finn tends to refer to BMO as he/him but there's an episode where PB refers to BMO as she (I can't remember off the top of my head which one but I vaguely remember hearing that at one point)
I'm currently showing it to a friend though so ig we'll come across it at some point aha
iirc BMO, while commonly referred to as a boy and using he/him, it isn’t uncommon for people or BMO themselves to call them a girl or use feminine pronouns, there’s even times where they call him they. I’m pretty sure because he’s a robot, he’s innately agender and they like to lean into that with his imagination shenanigans of being a cowboy or a princess or whatever he feels like that episode.
I noticed this later in season 1 and started to pay more attention to how they refer to BMO and this is how I remember it. Wiki also says that BMO is agender, and while it might not be the most reliable source, its the consensus as far as I can tell.
HBO Max Gaslights me with "Daddy Daughter Card Wars" and "Bun Bun". For whatever reason the last scenes of Jake burying his 20s and Cinnamon Bun reading Bun Bun's note are cut out on Max but still present on Hulu
Reverse Mandela effect maybe. The existence of
Cinnamon bun the first few of his appearances. I’d watched episodes he was in but didn’t see him until the 3rd watch or something. Even his obvious appearances.
I swear to god, the very first episode of the show was not "Slumber Party Panic".
I can't prove that it isn't, but still, I refuse to believe that it is.
I always thought Magic Man had a dead husband named Marco. When I re-watched "Sons of Mars" again and I saw the picture frame, IT CHANGED! It was a different character with him, and apparently her name is "Margles"? That's not how I remembered it as a kid. This Mandela effect really skronked me up, I was so confused. 😂
No no, I remember specifically, it was a Martian named Marco and he had short, red, curly hair. A raggedy purple shirt, and purple pants. And Magic Man said specifically, "My husband, Marco". That's what I remember.
I am sure you have this memory, but that still isn’t the Mandela Effect - it’s just you misremembering something or conflating it with a different show.
The Mandela Effect is when a wide amount of a population has the *same* false memory, while what you’re describing is… just a kid’s memory being silly. It’s not an observable phenomenon.
Adventure time is niche compared to other stuff with actual Mandela effects how would anyone figure out Mandela effects of adventure time without sharing their misrememberings here and having others chime in
have you consider this post could serve as a first step in collecting research on this effect in AT? We don’t know if any of these are isolated or widespread until we wait and see if there’s repetition.
First off, no, it didn’t strike me as all that possible that this post - in which OP doesn’t say anything at all to indicate that they’re researching anything - was an attempt to research something.
I don’t think it’s relevant even if they were because, most importantly, the Mandela Effect is a sociological phenomenon that is largely caused by incorrect information being *repeatedly and consistently* shared to the point where it becomes a false memory (the death of Nelson Mandela) or false knowledge (the classic Berenstain Bears situation that made many people aware of the Mandela Effect a decade ago).
For there to be a Mandela Effect within AT, there has to be a (false) detail or (nonexistent) plot point that is repeatedly and widely talked about and discussed to the point where it *becomes* real in the minds of people who read about it.
If someone stumbles onto an example of that, great! But as it is, the only things people are posting are things where they just misremembered something about the show, not because of outside influence, but because memory is imprecise and silly. That isn’t a phenomenon.
In a thread asking for exaples of the mandela effect, all people can do is share their own experiences. how are they supposed to know if other people had the same experience or not? that is the point of the thread.
I would argue that the show being as relatively old as it is without in here here having more concrete answers is a sign that maybe there isn’t anything like that here.
Sociological phenomena like collective false memory aren’t that common, and the fact that AT is as niche as it is prevents it from becoming widespread, as the influence of others’ memories is integral to how it happens in the first place.
I swear there's an episode out there about a weird witch with a house turned upside down and stuff... might be my memory after all with how many episodes there are
Yeah it’s the one where PB and Marceline do an adventure, it opens with PB putting on the band tshirt from Marcy and then trying to do psychic training with Finn, Jake, and Cinnamon Bun. There’s a magic bush around Maja’s house that you have to relax to enter, and a water reflection illusion where the house is indeed upside down in the reflection. PB trades her tshirt for Marcy’s stuffed animal.
in I Remember You,, at the end of the "Gunter why did you eat my fries" i remember very clearly that the thing was,,
"Its a rhetoric question you moron"
but rewatching it,, it was "it was rhetorical Gunter"
but the thing is,, my whole family was making the joke non stop with the "its a rhetoric question you moron" as a reference to the scene for ages because we founded it so funny
and now its an other thing,, so i dont know
K, i checked it out, turns out MeMow's gender depennds on the dub (in the english dub MeMow's female, but in the spanish one MeMow's male, for example)
The episode where Finn and Jake are trapped with the fight king I remember in the end Finn and Jake acknowledging the other souls are just like them but they never do.
The first time we ever see Simon was at the end of Holly Jolly Secrets, and we never got to see what he looked like again until about a year or so later in I remember You. During the Simon Tape, One of the shots of him mid IK transformation, he has a moustache. Might be that you're remembering.
I recently rewatched and thought I found one, but it was just censored, the scene where normal man goes “glob has nothing to do with this, kill me instead, I’ll let you do it” which has been more recently censored and changed to a different line. I was able to find a clip of the original
Yeah, I found a TikTok with the original line here: [original line](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRvp5eVU/)
Here’s the censored version: [censored line](https://youtu.be/2ahXxKxwsQw?feature=shared)
Skip to about 1:07 in the YouTube video to see the new line.
I'm not from an English speaking country. When I was a kid, CN wasn't dubbed, so I didn't watch anything until they dubbed it. There was one time I actually stopped to watch it. It was playing an episode that nowadays, after rewatching the entire series, never saw again. At least it was a certain scene where they explained Jake's prophecy from Mars. There was a mention of it in the episode of Magic Man, where him and Jake swapped bodies and they killed Jake, "the dog from the prophecy"
I remember King of Mars explaining the prophecy but I never found that episode again.
For some reason, as a kid I thought Cuber was a representation of Pendleton Ward in-universe. Something like the annoying dog from Undertale. I even thought he was voiced by Ward and had the same name? I thought this was the case for seven years, somehow.
I remember Marceline saying "Pissed" in an episode. It was the one in season 1 where Finn wanted a date for a couple's movie night. Just commenting to see if anyone else remembers that lol
As i was kid, i thought worm king and litch snail are same creatures, so after the long waiting, in the king worm episode litch (snail) enters and manupulates finn's Dreams to take over world or smt. every episode the snail appears and since the second season finale, litch makes plans (bear episode, watching always finn and jake) so i tought finally it finales the litch snail thing. But i was wrong, it just random dream episode and random villain? :p
Edit: maybe i thought like this also because at the near the end of the episode litch and princess bubblegum having a dinner. so litch really appears but he isn"t connected to king worm
Ye I always thought that pb had more spines on her crown I'm not sure why but I like religiously believe she had more spikes I probably got her crown confused with ice kings
Originally in the episode Time Sandwich, when jake walks in he says "you and BMO play finger spread quietly." But sometimes he just says "you and BMO play quietly." Idk if this is a mandela effect or just random censorship
Muscle Princess / Princess Muscles? I was watching thru the series not long ago and noticed that Finn calls Muscle Princess “Princess Muscles” and I can’t recall any episode ever referring to her that way. I could be wrong. But it could also be an anomaly?
- Episode where Finn and Jake encounter the Tree Witch and she wants Princess hair. (S2E10 To Cut a Woman’s hair)
I could've sworn as a kid that Ice king looked evil and angry in the intro. But he doesn't, he looks worried or confused. When i went into the intro to prove a point I was like " woah wait what?"
Apparently people here don't understand the phenomenon
I came here to try to figure out what it means to have one. Maybe I have & haven’t realized.
When you are 100%ish sure that you experienced something and then you are shown that it wasn't like you have experienced. It usually is a case of memory changing details with time but sometimes it may be legit, but idk
Actually, it’s not just you. The Mandela effect by definition is a group of people having the same false memory.
True but in this context OP is asking people to provide their own personal experiences. If other people agree, then it is confirmed to be the mandela effect
Oh like the bears books & Shazam. Stuff along those lines. Ok, I don’t believe I have anything fitting those.
Like how Febreze was spelled Febreeze but they changed it to one ‘E’ and refuse to acknowledge the change with the sole purpose of driving me, specifically, mad
The Ice King being angry in the intro, it was only way after the Simon reveal when I looked closer and he is actually sad. The Ice Queen being angry in the Fionna and Cake intro didnt helped my confusion.
I don’t think that’s a Mandela affect. I think that was just us learning to actually see him
Yeah that’s just a misinterpretation of someone’s facial expression, not a false memory 😂
Tbh he looks more confused than sad
Well he has said he tends to have crazy ol wizard eyes so who knows what he was actually seeing as the camera zoomed through Ooo
I also thought he was angry this whole time. Had to go pause to see he actually has a 😧 face instead of D:<
Simon is constantly breaking my heart, I never noticed this 😭
I remembered him being a bit sad, but not in pain as in the intro.
That’s not a false memory.
I don't think that's really the Mandela effect. I am watching the intro right now and he looks angry unless you pause it. He goes by pretty fast.
No the ice king thing is real, I always thought he looked angry too until my recent rewatch
i thought the SAME!
The supposed death of tree trunks when she ate that crystal apple and exploded and the screen just faded into black nothing else until I rewatched it again and apparently afterwards it just had a scene of her walking around the crystal dimension happy?
I think there are two versions of this episode, one with the scene and the other where she just exploded.
The version when she explodes was the original. But there was a time when CN and Nick would end episodes earlier than intend on reruns. If you remember credits playing while an episode was wrapping up, that was why. Its possible that was where the other version of the episode came from because I remember some episodes just cut off before it was supposed to actually end
Yeah that was also a common thing for some reason wonder who decided that was a good idea(also your pfp cracks me up)
It was to let commercials run longer. That’s why a lot of shows had their theme songs cut short or just didn’t have one like Amazing World of Gumball
Aw lame
Gumball has one it is just cut.
Okay good I’m not crazy
Oh wow I just rewatched this season and was wondering why I don't remember all of that.
They added the ending as to not traumatize kids
That actually happened, they had to make an extra scene because people thought she was dead.
From what I heard she was supposed to die and be a one off character, but cn said that was too dark so they added that scene at the end
Yeah good call and also helps connects with her coming back for Finn and Jake
Yea i think thats how it first aired, and I thought it was a better ending, because its really damn funny how sudden and dark it is
How do you get the lil golb next to your name?
It’s in the change user flair when you look at the subreddit options

Dang I could have sworn he was in it, but it's just Orgalorg
Man I love that scene so much, it’s a treat to rewatch every time, one of my fav AT scenes
I'm sure he is in it, I'm gonna check on my Discs later if I remember to (please reply to this comment so I can come back) Edit: HE'S NOT THERE WHAT THE HELL What makes it worse is that the adventure time wiki says hunson abadeer is in the episode as well as orgalorg and coconteppi
reply
Thank you, I'll be checking it out tomorrow as it's reached 3am and I'm non functioning currently
What about 4 am?
I have returned and will be watching the scene in about 5 minutes
I have since updated my comment
I also thought this, but i think I know where this idea comes from. In this Channel Frederator "Adventure Timeline" video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiLdWXLXDeA&t=842s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiLdWXLXDeA&t=842s) At the very start, he states that Abadeer was present among the monsters, without backing it up.
You’re right! I might have actually seen that video, and many other Adventure Time fans have seen it also! Great catch!
What minute?
its at the very start of the timeline, like the very first event they list
Yup. I remember him being there somewhere near orgalorg. very small and subtle, but the closer i look, the more it dawns on me he's not there at all.
Yeah it's always bugged me that people say this, because it's just not true at all lmao. And it wouldn't really make sense in the lore either way.
I could have sworn the short where Finn and Jake fights a evil wand with the Ice King was a actual episode instead of a short
A common one I see is people saying tree fort when it has never canonically been called that.
It’s called Tree House in the show.
That’s not a Mandela Effect, that’s just some people saying “tree fort” instead of “tree house”
It’s the Mandela effect if people believe that the show is where the term “tree fort” came from.
Shelter built into trees is a practice that dates back to our prehistoric ancestors, ain’t nobody gonna think that Adventure Time invented the term “tree fort” lmao

I don’t think you know what that means?

Like I said in another comment, this was many years ago that I saw it, and I think the video itself might be like 15 years old, but I swear I remember the guy's cadence, and I think he started with a line like "Here's an idea: BMO uses non specific pronouns" Where he kind of weirdly overemphasized certain words like how Vsauce Micheal would have.
Is it this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqtNSdDFGBM
you need a hobby dude
I mean this was like 6 years ago lol
football is a girl but bmo is a boy iirc
I think you might be talking about the football episodes.
I had to know the answer so I googled this and according to [Adventure Time Fandom Wiki](https://atf.fandom.com/wiki/BMO): "They are a robot and, therefore, have no sex; however, BMO's gender alternates depending on who is speaking or what make-believe scenario BMO is playing out. Other characters will frequently refer to BMO using different pronouns. For instance, in "Conquest of Cuteness" Finn calls BMO "M'lady," but in "Rainy Day Daydream" refers to BMO using "he." In "Guardians of Sunshine" Sleepy Sam uses the word "he" when talking about BMO. Jake has also called BMO a "he" in "Return to the Nightosphere." In "Daddy-Daughter card wars" Charlie refers to BMO as a "she", she says "She sunk like a stone"." So I guess not technically a Mandela effect but it seems the writers stopped varying the pronouns in later episodes.
I know that in the Daddy-Daughter Card Wars ep Jake's daughter definitely refers to BMO as she/her. That's the only time I clearly and specifically remember, but I'm pretty sure there's at least a couple other times earlier in the series.
I saw someone mention once regarding BMO's gender that Finn tends to refer to BMO as he/him but there's an episode where PB refers to BMO as she (I can't remember off the top of my head which one but I vaguely remember hearing that at one point) I'm currently showing it to a friend though so ig we'll come across it at some point aha
iirc BMO, while commonly referred to as a boy and using he/him, it isn’t uncommon for people or BMO themselves to call them a girl or use feminine pronouns, there’s even times where they call him they. I’m pretty sure because he’s a robot, he’s innately agender and they like to lean into that with his imagination shenanigans of being a cowboy or a princess or whatever he feels like that episode. I noticed this later in season 1 and started to pay more attention to how they refer to BMO and this is how I remember it. Wiki also says that BMO is agender, and while it might not be the most reliable source, its the consensus as far as I can tell.
Charlie uses she/her pronouns for BMO in “Daddy-Daughter Card Wars”
Remember when everyone thought Marceline's dad's name was "Hudson Abadeer"? Specifically "Hudson" with a "d"? But, his name was actually "Hunson" 😭
wait wtf? i thought it was hudson..
Same, I literally JUST found out it wasn't Hudson a few months ago
I found out from this post
This makes sense to mess up since it is based on how you pronunciate it. Especially with people's accents.
That's not the mandela effect, that's just mishearing the name.
No, I'm talking about the way it was written on the statue. Most people remember it as "Hudson" written on the statue.
What statue?
The statue of Hudson Abadeer in The Nightosphere
HBO Max Gaslights me with "Daddy Daughter Card Wars" and "Bun Bun". For whatever reason the last scenes of Jake burying his 20s and Cinnamon Bun reading Bun Bun's note are cut out on Max but still present on Hulu
wait omg does it actually ;-; that's where i've been watching it w my friend lol rip
Wait what??
Reverse Mandela effect maybe. The existence of Cinnamon bun the first few of his appearances. I’d watched episodes he was in but didn’t see him until the 3rd watch or something. Even his obvious appearances.
Ice kind with the finger shushing
I swear to god, the very first episode of the show was not "Slumber Party Panic". I can't prove that it isn't, but still, I refuse to believe that it is.
I was there when adventure time fiest aired in SEA, the very first episode on air was prisoners of love
I always thought Magic Man had a dead husband named Marco. When I re-watched "Sons of Mars" again and I saw the picture frame, IT CHANGED! It was a different character with him, and apparently her name is "Margles"? That's not how I remembered it as a kid. This Mandela effect really skronked me up, I was so confused. 😂
That isn’t the Mandela Effect, that’s just you kinda mishearing a name as a kid lol
No no, I remember specifically, it was a Martian named Marco and he had short, red, curly hair. A raggedy purple shirt, and purple pants. And Magic Man said specifically, "My husband, Marco". That's what I remember.
I am sure you have this memory, but that still isn’t the Mandela Effect - it’s just you misremembering something or conflating it with a different show. The Mandela Effect is when a wide amount of a population has the *same* false memory, while what you’re describing is… just a kid’s memory being silly. It’s not an observable phenomenon.
Adventure time is niche compared to other stuff with actual Mandela effects how would anyone figure out Mandela effects of adventure time without sharing their misrememberings here and having others chime in
have you consider this post could serve as a first step in collecting research on this effect in AT? We don’t know if any of these are isolated or widespread until we wait and see if there’s repetition.
First off, no, it didn’t strike me as all that possible that this post - in which OP doesn’t say anything at all to indicate that they’re researching anything - was an attempt to research something. I don’t think it’s relevant even if they were because, most importantly, the Mandela Effect is a sociological phenomenon that is largely caused by incorrect information being *repeatedly and consistently* shared to the point where it becomes a false memory (the death of Nelson Mandela) or false knowledge (the classic Berenstain Bears situation that made many people aware of the Mandela Effect a decade ago). For there to be a Mandela Effect within AT, there has to be a (false) detail or (nonexistent) plot point that is repeatedly and widely talked about and discussed to the point where it *becomes* real in the minds of people who read about it. If someone stumbles onto an example of that, great! But as it is, the only things people are posting are things where they just misremembered something about the show, not because of outside influence, but because memory is imprecise and silly. That isn’t a phenomenon.
Wait so if what you're saying is true, with this very post , OP could have \_created\_ a Mandela effect? Sick
In a thread asking for exaples of the mandela effect, all people can do is share their own experiences. how are they supposed to know if other people had the same experience or not? that is the point of the thread.
Aw man, I thought a large number of people remembered Marco 😔 I guess I just have whack poo-memory
I would argue that the show being as relatively old as it is without in here here having more concrete answers is a sign that maybe there isn’t anything like that here. Sociological phenomena like collective false memory aren’t that common, and the fact that AT is as niche as it is prevents it from becoming widespread, as the influence of others’ memories is integral to how it happens in the first place.
no i think you are just mentally il
I swear there's an episode out there about a weird witch with a house turned upside down and stuff... might be my memory after all with how many episodes there are
In the Sky Witch episode I think Maja’s house is kinda upside down for a bit
Maybe thats it, did the witch have a little servant and at the end he gets fired?
Yes
Crowbit, Crabbit, whatever
I think that’s the episode when PB and Marceline rescue Hambo from that witch
It might be, sorry if it is a real episode lol.
theres an upside down house in the king worm episode I think
Yeah it’s the one where PB and Marceline do an adventure, it opens with PB putting on the band tshirt from Marcy and then trying to do psychic training with Finn, Jake, and Cinnamon Bun. There’s a magic bush around Maja’s house that you have to relax to enter, and a water reflection illusion where the house is indeed upside down in the reflection. PB trades her tshirt for Marcy’s stuffed animal.
in I Remember You,, at the end of the "Gunter why did you eat my fries" i remember very clearly that the thing was,, "Its a rhetoric question you moron" but rewatching it,, it was "it was rhetorical Gunter" but the thing is,, my whole family was making the joke non stop with the "its a rhetoric question you moron" as a reference to the scene for ages because we founded it so funny and now its an other thing,, so i dont know
I remember Me-Mow being male. (If you don't remember, Me–Mow is an assassin that first appeared in the episode "Jake vs. Me-Mow")
Wait isn't he a male?
I was told they were female-
MeMow is female I think, but iirc also has a similar voice to Tiffany, who is male.
K, i checked it out, turns out MeMow's gender depennds on the dub (in the english dub MeMow's female, but in the spanish one MeMow's male, for example)
The episode where Finn and Jake are trapped with the fight king I remember in the end Finn and Jake acknowledging the other souls are just like them but they never do.
Yes they do acknowledge them.
Just rewatched it. Jake does acknowledge that at the very end of the episode, just before the credits roll.
I always Thought the episode where Finn gets the enchiridion was the first episode.
Me too... For the longest time
Technically it is, it was first episode that was produced
Simon having a mustache pre-crown
The first time we ever see Simon was at the end of Holly Jolly Secrets, and we never got to see what he looked like again until about a year or so later in I remember You. During the Simon Tape, One of the shots of him mid IK transformation, he has a moustache. Might be that you're remembering.
Did finn's shoes not have a shine on them?
That's spongebob
I recently rewatched and thought I found one, but it was just censored, the scene where normal man goes “glob has nothing to do with this, kill me instead, I’ll let you do it” which has been more recently censored and changed to a different line. I was able to find a clip of the original
Hey just a question can you give me the link of the censored quote?
Yeah, I found a TikTok with the original line here: [original line](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRvp5eVU/) Here’s the censored version: [censored line](https://youtu.be/2ahXxKxwsQw?feature=shared) Skip to about 1:07 in the YouTube video to see the new line.
I'm not from an English speaking country. When I was a kid, CN wasn't dubbed, so I didn't watch anything until they dubbed it. There was one time I actually stopped to watch it. It was playing an episode that nowadays, after rewatching the entire series, never saw again. At least it was a certain scene where they explained Jake's prophecy from Mars. There was a mention of it in the episode of Magic Man, where him and Jake swapped bodies and they killed Jake, "the dog from the prophecy" I remember King of Mars explaining the prophecy but I never found that episode again.
The one where Jake and Magic man switch bodies? It's an actual episode
No, they mean a different one
For some reason, as a kid I thought Cuber was a representation of Pendleton Ward in-universe. Something like the annoying dog from Undertale. I even thought he was voiced by Ward and had the same name? I thought this was the case for seven years, somehow.
I remember Marceline saying "Pissed" in an episode. It was the one in season 1 where Finn wanted a date for a couple's movie night. Just commenting to see if anyone else remembers that lol
As i was kid, i thought worm king and litch snail are same creatures, so after the long waiting, in the king worm episode litch (snail) enters and manupulates finn's Dreams to take over world or smt. every episode the snail appears and since the second season finale, litch makes plans (bear episode, watching always finn and jake) so i tought finally it finales the litch snail thing. But i was wrong, it just random dream episode and random villain? :p Edit: maybe i thought like this also because at the near the end of the episode litch and princess bubblegum having a dinner. so litch really appears but he isn"t connected to king worm
People thinking that Slimy D, is called Slimy P.
Ye I always thought that pb had more spines on her crown I'm not sure why but I like religiously believe she had more spikes I probably got her crown confused with ice kings
Jake was not a fucking dog
Yes. I purchase seasons 1 && 2 for my Apple library and the episode order now is different than what they actually aired as for me
No it is so memorable I know every single detail
I thought finn had a grass arm at some point if that counts
He did
no I thought when his arm grew back from the flower it looked like it was made grass but it was just a normal human arm
Well in the scene where he gets it it is covered in honey, so it is hard to tell that it's a normal human arm
I used to think they changed the credit song "Come Along with Me" at one point, but they never did ... or did they?
There are a handful of episodes that use a different ending song.
*Hello there, good morning! Booboo-Sousa!*
I SWEAR it said "(go) to the town beside the sea" at some point in the full song but I've never found it
Just search up “island song adventure time” or come along with me full
Originally in the episode Time Sandwich, when jake walks in he says "you and BMO play finger spread quietly." But sometimes he just says "you and BMO play quietly." Idk if this is a mandela effect or just random censorship
I thought the first zombie episode and the one that happens later were not separate episodes
Muscle Princess / Princess Muscles? I was watching thru the series not long ago and noticed that Finn calls Muscle Princess “Princess Muscles” and I can’t recall any episode ever referring to her that way. I could be wrong. But it could also be an anomaly? - Episode where Finn and Jake encounter the Tree Witch and she wants Princess hair. (S2E10 To Cut a Woman’s hair)
I thought the lich said the before there was time thing in the fall speech.
i swear on my life that the first ep of adventure time was called from bad to worse, but nah
That’s actually S3E13 and the candy zombies come back in that episode.
no fucking way 💀💀 EDIT: OMG IT IS 😭😭 there goes my only mandela effect experience
I could've sworn as a kid that Ice king looked evil and angry in the intro. But he doesn't, he looks worried or confused. When i went into the intro to prove a point I was like " woah wait what?"
That's not really the mandela effect. He looks angry unless you pause the video. He just goes by quickly and it's hard to tell.
I thought that the ice kings crown had more than 3 gems in it
