how the fuck did hi 5 ghost have a kid?

Is Skips any older, or is he still immortal?

Those molecoon girls are p. hot.

Oh, shit: Is Pops dead???

GH-OST CREAMPIE!

>we don't see jack shit about margaret or cj in the ending montage because they doesn't matter since Mordecai didn't fuck either of them

But I mean other than that it was alright

CJ's a Thomas-tier character; not that it wouldn't be nice to know what becomes of her but I can see why they didn't bother since her part in the story is already resolved.

So no one noticed this?

Here's the answer: Yes!!!

The ending was a lot better then I expected it would be. I wouldn't have been surprised or mad if it had just ended with Anti Pop's getting killed or reformed and everyone just went back to earth and lived happily ever after.

His real name is High 5 Dicks.

what happened to thomas tho?

What am I supposed to see

It's up there for best cartoon endings that I've seen. Too many of them just drop into nothing, but they made the most of the last season and positioned themselves well into a nicely paced ending. Lord knows Adventure Time is probably going to be a disaster.

The ending for RS, though... man, it's so weird to be reminded of the fact that 20, 30 years can pass by and you're so far removed from what you thought was the obvious direction you were heading. As an oldfag it gave me the warm and fuzzy's.

>mordecai became cancer
>married "totally not marceline"

>every character's parents were same-race marriages
>everyone but muscleman became race traitors
So now we have another example of the jew overlords pushing the destruction of the white race through media.

IKR? Their eldest child whom Starla introduced once The Park first returned to Earth looks about the same age here. So, Muscle Man started going bald within a year of that!

Ending was pretty good especially when the VCR pops at the end and you hear Pops, almost cried there and when Rigby and Mordecai said WOAAAH and said " I can believe we used to say that" it really shows that they grew up. I guess my only problem is that Margaret wasnt shown afterwards, I mean I know they were gone for 3 years and that is alot of time to move on but when Mordecai was painting you see a a painting of red birds so its kind of like he's still hung up on Margaret, idk kinda wanted them to be end game after what Mordecai went through to be with her plus Mordecais kids look spoiled as shit

When Rigby said "I cant belive it has been 25 years" It hit me so hard man, almost cried

True True. I guess it hits me even harder since when I watch Regular show I was like in Elementary and now Im almost graduating college so I can relate to the change in time. Kinda sad that its kind of implied Mordecai and Rigby didnt play videogames anymore

I dont think they see each other a lot, live in different cities and have different things going on in life, most time that they spend togheter must be in those kinds of gatherings
Passage of time is fascinating

Yeah, having your own family demands 90% of your free time. Is it me but does Mordecai looks super sad during the montage

>see this post
>remember that Regular Show began after I graduated college
Jesus.

I just graduated from high school last year, the show started when I was like fucking 12

he fully embraced his shitty hipster persona

Kinda sucks since I used to never watch the endings of shows I liked because I thought if I never watched the ending then it wouldnt have ended or something like that. I now have a big void inside of me

Get a job and cut your hair, youngfag

>Im unemployed
>I have long ass hair
I fucking hate you

I feel more a sense of completion then a void, its this weird feeling that the inevitable happened but I liked how it ended up to happen

Good

Rigby got best endgame.

What about Mordecai? Whe dont even know what job Rigby is doing

New trailer

Look on the bright side: at least Sup Forums is available 24 hours a day for you

That's why the ending doesn't really work.

There was no thematic focus on the topic of growing up in the final season, and before. Only occasionally that Mordecai would have wanted to do something else with his life, while Rigby would have been cool.

And after showing how much they rely on each other, just suddenly going their separate ways to show they grow up felt forced.

>There was no thematic focus on the topic of growing up in the final season, and before
That was literally the whole point of Rigby graduating high school.

And despite how shitty it was handled, Mordecai sowing his wild oats with all of his stupid relationships and getting glimmers of insight towards his wasted life at the park lays the groundwork for him finally finding inner peace through art (which he rarely tapped into despite it being enough of a passion for him to go to college for it) and maturing enough to take on a relationship that could actually work.

The show ended almost exactly how I thought it. The only differences I had was that Mordecai would be with Margaret and that Rigby would be the new park manager

The point was to have Rigby get a season to himself. Not him growing up. Because he wasn't different after and cheated his way past the language requirement in the most retarded way.

>and maturing enough to take on a relationship that could actually work.
What relationship? "They like art, so they are together", is not a relationship. It's a cop out.

But giving a whole season a whole season for Rigby showes his development arch

except when it goes down for maintenance randomly and its the equivalent of your phone screen fading and you see your reflection

Loved it. I wasn't sold about going to space for an entire season, but it wasn't bad at all, and the finale itself was great. Going meta, all those callbacks, Pop's sacrifice, the god damn Bowie montage...a great sendoff for a jolly good show.
I just wish we'd seen Thomas for the finale, he could have totally gone to space, and seeing Margaret and CJ would have been cool too, though I can understand why they weren't there.
Only the best ending for my favorite character.
Rigby graduating high school is pretty big for him, it's the only lasting accomplishment he got throughout the whole show (if you don't count going out with Eileen). He wasn't different after that because it's a fucking high school diploma, so not really an important thing overall, except for him.
But yeah, they don't actually grow up during the show, they just go on with their job at the park, and it's supposed to be temporary, so at some point they have to move out, and that's where they truly start growing up. That's what the montage showed, they become full-fledged adults and live their lives instead of still having the same job.

Also I really like how Mordecai setyled for someone with commun interests and not "the love of his life" a much mature way to handle a relationship

Rigby will only grow to a point. He was pretty set in his ways. He was still playing video games when he had kids. His getting together with Eileen is pretty much the peak of his maturity

You're just picking faults and measuring this against a constantly changing standard to justify your view. You know that graduating high school was a big point of shifting Rigby's character to a more responsible person. He also got incredibly close to Eileen in the process, something that he had been childish and/or oblivious over in previous seasons.

With Mordecai the art is an obvious way of showing that he is getting rid of his slacker nature and focusing on what actually drives him. And wow, big surprise, him meeting somebody that also appreciates the things that he is passionate over leads him into a functioning relationship.

>Cant grow to be mature and a good man for his family and still enjoy things that you enjoyed your whole life
Ok

The only show to do 80s right. I'm going to miss it more than any other show.

To be honest if they did one of those kinda shitty "AND THE ADVENTURES WILL CONTINUE FOREVER" endings like when they get back and settled in, they're supposed to be working but then they start goofing off and chasing each other around the park with a water hose, with a slow pan out to show the whole park, it would've been just as sad to me because their goofing off is adorable and I'm already missing it.

What arc? He couldn't even hold his graduation speech without Mordecai. So much for being independent.

>they became adults
>they look older now and have kids
>Tada, instant adult!

He was shown getting along more with CJ and Margaret than with random bat woman.

You mean, just going with the first girl who made it clear she likes him no matter what?

>You know that graduating high school was a big point of shifting Rigby's character to a more responsible person.

Which he didn't became.

>He also got incredibly close to Eileen in the process
He wasn't just before that?

>what actually drives him
Which was something of "We established this so use it." The show should have displayed this more. They even joked with the "I went to art school" bit in season 8, as if to be callous about people who wanted that to be a thing.

>a functioning relationship
Not shown, only assumed. Just with what he sees in her or vice versa. You can't show how well he gets along with two characters despite not being into the same stuff he is and then not do that with his supposed definite ending who does like art.

>You're just picking faults and measuring this against a constantly changing standard to justify your view.

I'm pointing out flaws in shitty writing. You are free to point how how I am supposedly moving goalposts.

>Mordecai meets a girl who shares his interests
Is infinitely better than
>Mordecai meets a girl who he thinks is pretty
It would've been disappointing if Mordecai ended up with either of his ex's, because he didn't really have anything in common with them. It's good that at least SOMEONE didn't end up with the girl they met as a teen/young adult, it'd be unrealistic. Granted that randomly meeting and marrying literally who at the last moment was rushed, but I can see why they did it; the optimal thing would be for Mordecai to live without a girlfriend, but that would've been pretty sad, especially given that he's obviously lonely as fuck and spent most of the series trying to get a girl; to have him fail at the one thing he tried to do would be sad as a send-off.

Reminder for whoever wants to do lewds of Bluray, she has breasts and a vagina in her crystal form.

I still want a lewd where Benson's helping her button her bra in her human form though.

>Conveniently ignoring how well he got along with both Margaret and CJ.

Getting along with someone isn't the same as being ready to marry them.

Well, good thing there was an entire episode that basically said "You'd be very happy together." Despite not sharing the same interests. So there must have been something.

Jesus, you must be a hit at parties.

Last thread felt more like people agreed the ending was full of holes, and now there are people who said it wasn't.

It's weird. I didn't like the ending, but I don't think you should argue so much about a show that was never good at having their silly throwaway adventures next to attempted realistic adult relationships with no real long term planning.

Y'know I used to be like you and try and point out the nitty gritty of this show's writing even though I knew it was more focused in the episodic comedy rather than any long running arcs.

I'm glad I grew out of it. You should grow out if it too, especially since its a done deal now.

>Eileen
>best anything

He had 2

You're right, it's Eileen who actually got the best endgame.

I'm still beside myself on how to feel about Eileen being a fucking housewife, maybe she's really happy that way... but I can't help but feel Rigby is dragging the poor girl down like he did to betacai all those years.

Believe me, this is the only thing I am with like this. It was nice having cartoon characters which they at least attempted to make believable young adults without the usual Adult Swim naughtiness. And ultimately disappointing they were so careless with that aspect.

There is no other show left I felt so strongly about in that. Not Adventure Time, Not Steven Universe, and I will not repeat this mistake.

I just really lije the end they gave to the characters, it was simple, mature and made sense to me
I cant imagine a more sound way actually

At that point its not Rigby the fictional character holding her down though and more the RS writing/story boarding staff who didnt bother to show what she did with her life beyond being lovey-donkey with Rigby in that montage.

I don't know about the mature and sensical part. An ending like this would have benefited from an episode of its own.

Which is sad in its own way. Reducing a character that is supposed to be great at a lot of things to being the doting wife to Rigby, simply because they didn't bother to show that.

I dont see much need to, the show never focused on her life beyond her interaction with rigby

They showed everyone else except Muscle Man and Starla who are obviously trailer trash, they showed Skips still working at the park and being an auto mechanic, Mordecai a painter, Fives a DJ, and Benson still manages the park and possibly owns it after Pops' dad dying.

It was obvious they kept them both at home to show she's the housewife feeling the effects of trying to give a piece of shit like Rigby the time of day, and don't worry I do still blame the writers and especially JG for giving a character who tried to make a main character better himself such a shit ending but she's still so nice she sticks with him anyway

I mean I don't NOT feel for you, that's the sentiment I held back when Season 4 was starting to nosedive in the second half. I'm just saying once you step back its very clear the situational comedy was the highlight of interest for writing and it was like that from the start. We kinda just set ourselves up for disappointment, y'know.

All I'd advise is to either learn to pick your new interests better or hell, make something you want to see yourself.

>It was obvious they kept them both at home to show she's the housewife feeling the effects of trying to give a piece of shit like Rigby the time of day,

Nice projecting.

>and don't worry I do still blame the writers and especially JG for giving a character who tried to make a main character better himself such a shit ending but she's still so nice she sticks with him anyway.

Eileen was literally always the wannabe dicksleeve to Rigby. That was her defining characteristic from her introduction, so if you're this pissed that she ended up with the guy by the end after countless episodes of her getting wet over him then the only thing I can say is "okay lol."

Season 4? That's a bit early, although I can understand it, getting with Margaret was a rush job reserved for the end of the season and then her leaving was a weird way of a gut punch. At that point already people complained she should have had more character development. Which she got. 3 seasons later.

>make something you want to see yourself.
You remember that Rescue Ranger comic? I was thinking of making something like that removing the cringeyness. Might be a futile uphill battle by action alone.

Part 2's commercial break cliffhanger is still one of the best.

The part where Rigby was trying to decide what he wanted to be reincarnated as and Mordecai kinda smiling at him after just tearing up was cute, I like how he looks at him.

Even in the most dire situation, Rigby is true to himself.

So was the "A pterodactyl with a really big..." supposed to be a dirty joke or what? I can't imagine it being anything else, but fuck I'm not used to newer RS giving out innuendos.

The only topical idea for porn I can think of relating to her is her vagina being a disc slot.

I assumed it was. Now I'm picturing a pterodactyl with a huge dong just flying happily around the park.

the montage was lazy and a waste of bowie song, the character endings was shit and almost entirely random

>david bowie finishing off the series
At least after all these years it went out alright.

Fuck CN for making all the Halloween specials after the first few absolutely boring.

The perfect lewd would be forcing VHS tapes into her drive

>"No, I don't have the proper system requirements!"

...

More Smarter is still one of the best episodes of anything.

>ET HARUM FACERE DEBERET IRE STULTUM

What has science wrAAAAAWght?

Posted in the wrong thread, but I still want to say it here.

so now that the dust has settled what is objectively the best episode of RS out of the entire series?
