They’re not like all your other subjects, but their love has lasted several lifetimes. We’re celebrating love with these Princess Bubblegum and Marceline cosplays!

Adventure Time is another one of those shows that people are shocked I have never seen. Though I recognized most of the characters and the show’s signature art style, until today I couldn’t tell you anything about the show itself, its plot, or its characters. I consider myself duly chastised, because these Princess Bubblegum and Marceline the Vampire Queen cosplays have inspired me to correct this error in judgement!

The History of Marceline and Bubblegum

At first glance, the shows art style wasn’t very appealing to me. (I know, I know… I’m the worst). But after learning about the beautiful and nuanced relationship between these two amazing characters, I’m sold. SOLD, I say! It’s only natural that I correct this issue during Pride month, because from what I’m reading, their love is a story for the ages.



Marceline and Bubblegum are adorable together. Light and dark, soft and edgy, their contrasts are really wholesome, and lead for some damn good cosplay. There are many different styles of cosplays out there for these two, and narrowing this list down was incredibly hard for me!

I’m particularly fond of this art neuveau-style collaboration – it’s absolutely stunning, and the quality of both the cosplays and the photography are breathtaking. The details are rich, and these ladies are giving major Lore Olympus vibes. I hope that you adore these cosplays as much as I do, and that you aren’t as ridiculous as I am for not having seen this show before. Go forth and rock, write some epic love poems for your partners… And enjoy these Marceline and Bubblegum cosplays!

Princess Bubblegum : What?
Marceline : Even back when we weren’t talking, I was so afraid something bad would happen to you, and I wouldn’t be there to protect you, and… I don’t wanna lose you again.
Princess Bubblegum : Hey, I’m a tough gum. Nothing never happening to me, never.
Marceline : I know. I’m… Girl, you phrased that so weird.
Princess Bubblegum : I may have a concussion.

Marceling: Oh, man. He hates music.
Princess Bubblegum : Duh! Golb is dischord. It’s the harmony. Harmony hurts them.
BMO: My art is a weapon!
Princess Bubblegum: “Sometimes you want someone, and you want to kiss and be with them, but you can’t because responsibility demands sacrifice.”
Marceline to Bubblegum. Come in Bubblegum. You there?

“Okay, so I’m not stupid. I know our lives are moving us in different directions, okay? I get that. I get that nothing lasts forever, believe me. But that doesn’t mean I have to like it.
“And I know that you’ve got your hands full with your new kingdom, okay? I get that you’re busy, and I want you to be busy. You’re doing something so ambitious, so crazy…
“But there’s gotta be a balance there, you know? A way where we can stay friends, a way where I don’t feel so hurt all the time. And it’s not all you–I know I’ve been major cheesed because of this and that’s not fun for anyone.
“You’ve been my best friend for so long, and we’re not gonna lose that. We’ll figure this out, Bubblegum.
“People get built different. We don’t need to figure it out, we just need to respect it.”
