Choose Goose is a quirky character from Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake , infamous for selling odd protective gear with his signature rhyme: "Choose some protection from my selection!" But fans often call him "evil" due to a shocking plot twist in the series.

Origin Story

Originally a goofy, sleazy salesman in Ooo, Choose Goose starts as a harmless hustler peddling metal shoes and cheek protectors.

He pops up in episodes like "The Winter King," charming viewers with his eccentric vibe—think a rhyming goose obsessed with safety gear.

That all flips in "Wizard City," where darker forces pull him into Simon's chaotic rituals, setting the stage for his villainous turn.

The Evil Transformation

Key Trigger: Coconteppi's Ichor
Choose Goose drinks the poisonous ichor (magical goo) from the wizard Coconteppi, a substance deadly to most—it warps him into "Evil Choose Goose."

Post-transformation, he cackles maniacally, declares "Being Choose Goose is no lark... especially now that I'm turning dark," and steals Bufo's tadpoles to fuel his mischief.

Simon (Ice King's alternate self) uses him as a "magical battery" in failed summoning rituals, electrocuting and strangling him, which strips his feathers and amps up the tragedy.

Sad Fate and Fan Reactions

  • He ultimately dies—Simon leaves flowers at his grave in "The Hare and the Sprout," hinting regret over the abuse.
  • Fans on Reddit geek out over the twist: "He made some... bad choices," with jokes about returning his moisturizer.
  • TikTok dives into "hidden motives," while YouTube vids call him "the silliest character with the saddest ending."

"In 'Wizard City,' Choose Goose drinks Coconteppi's ichor, survives (unlike most), but turns evil—stealing tadpoles and serving Simon."

Why Fans Love-Hate Him

Some see pure corruption from the ichor, like a power grab gone wrong.

Others speculate Simon's torment pushed him over the edge, blending pity with horror—classic Adventure Time depth.

No recent 2026 buzz (as of Feb), but forums still trend his arc as peak chaotic neutral gone rogue.

TL;DR : Not born evil—poison + rituals turn the rhyming salesman into a cackling fiend who meets a grim end, sparking endless fan theories.
