The comic book serises "Adventure Time with Fionna & cake" takes place on a world where everyone is the opposite of their normal selves. This makes Finn the Human who is a boy into Fionna the Human who is a girl and Jake the Dog into Cake the Cat. The intersting thing about this world and comic book serises is once again BMO, who is unchanged. BMO was not male or female, she is bigender or agender so it's impossible for his gender to be swapped. I think this shows beyond a doubt that BMO is the first popular cartoon character to be non cisgendered .

The most interesting part of this story is that no children have been crying, getting confused or wanted to be like this just because BMO is. This proves that you can have LGBTQ+ characters on TV and even on kids TV without it messing up a genderation. I look on BMO as a rolemodel to future writers and TV producers because I want them to see that you can have a character like BMO in a show and still have it become massivly popular like Adventure Time has done.

The comic books with Fionna and Cake are a fantastic read that capture the same amazing feeling of the show. I find that all Adventure Time comics do this but I have mentioned Fionna and Cake so will leave links for people to buy it from Amazon!

In the episode "BMO lost" our wonderful bigender/agender BMO finds herself lost away from Finn and Jake. She teams up with a friendly bubble who he quickly begins to fall for. This is worth talking about as the bubble never has a given gender just like BMO. This shows a romantic relationship between two characters outside of the gender binary and it is amazing to see on mainstream TV. I think we all need to sit back and appreciate how amazing Adventure

Adventure Time really is. I hope you watch the show and enjoy it as much as I know I do, and start to fall in love with BMO as I did!
