Fionna and Cake season 2 unravels Adventure Time’s most enigmatic character

“We had a propulsive theme for the first season,” showrunner Adam Muto tells Polygon, “but obviously we couldn’t reuse a lot of the same visuals. It was not trying to copy that, but also not downshift it dramatically. A lot of it was driven by the storyboards that [director] Ryann Shannon did, and then once we had edited it in, we had a temp track, and it felt better if it was cutting a lot faster. That dictated what kind of music we ended up going with.”
