I was on a website review for the episode "The Vault" and i was reading when this showed up
“The Vault” is an incredibly metaphysical episode of Adventure Time, dealing with reincarnation, atonement, and ghosts to tell a poignant story about how the past can haunt us in unexpected ways. During his hypnosis, Finn opens the vault door and sees his past selves—a comet, a butterfly, a bubblegum-like pink substance—before being thrust into the shoes of Shoko, a one-armed girl who rides a chubby white tiger and steals treasure for the Bath Boy Gang. The name Shoko means “auspicious child,” ironic considering the character’s lousy luck, which includes having her parents trade her arm for a computer when she was a child. Seeing this past version of Finn establishes a sense of continuity between the two characters; they both share an adventurous, energetic spirit, and Shoko’s lack of an arm continues to suggest that Finn will lose an arm in his future.
"Shoko’s lack of an arm continues to suggest that Finn will lose an arm in his future."
