I just started this show last night and finished the episode where Opal is revealed.It made me cry a lot and I don't know why ;_;
>>82646642
Just that file name makes me not want to believe that you just started this show.
>>82646785
I just grabbed one from google images, I didn't care to change the name.
>>82646642
Are you of the female persuasion? I'm a male and I cry a lot during movies and such, but Steven Universe has never made me shed a tear.
>>82646950
I'm just an emotional person is all. I had to stop watching anime because everything made me cry so easily.
Not sure. I think I'm just a big cry baby.Or at least my boyfriend sure thinks so
SU is just too girly for me to get into.
>>82647254
Girly how? Speak in real general terms.
If you cried wathcing Giant Woman, then stay away from Lion 3 episode
Shut up.
>>82647302
I don't know how to explain it but I agree with him. The show seems very feminine.
>>82647403
What happens in that episode?
>>82647583
I reccomend at least giving it a shot to see if you like it. Its a fun show.
>>82646642
You cried because you realized they're best ship, simple as that
>>82647583
>The show seems very feminine.
No shit sherlock
Do people still not get this is made by a woman for young girls
ROSE'S SCABBARD SUCKS
>>82647695
Better?
>>82647302
The abundence of songs, the forced emotional amounts, the fact that the majority of important characters are women.
>>82647845
Sounds like the standard Disney flick.
>>82646642
I partially know what you mean OP. Sometimes I go full faggot with some shit, and this show has gotten me to do it at various parts.
There will be a lot more coming up btw. You should catch up in time for the new EP on the 13th.
>>82647845
>fact that the majority of important characters are women
why? I'm not a tumblrina, but I just want to know why this bothers you.
>>82648126
Dude probably just plain doesn't like women.
>>82648126
Because that person is sexist or just fucking with us.
I have don't know why that would be a bad thing for important female characters to exist.
Also I feel like Greg and Steven are probably more important than the 3 gems which are technically gender-less.
>>82646642
>>82648126
It just makes me feel comfortable. Especially when the show deliberately appeals to all the waifu fags who want to bone them.
>>82647845
>music is for girls
>harem animes are for girls
You can't be serious.
>>82647993
Except SU clearly takes it's cues from eastern sources which I just can't get into.
>>82647583Steven finds a tape recorded by his mother to him.
>>82648283
The show does a good job of a family dynamic set against all the fantastical and weird shit. Nobody feels too important, it's just a strange family trying to get along while dealing with war-in-heaven style stuff.
>>82648361
>Especially when the show deliberately appeals to all the waifu fags who want to bone them.
That's not a thing. That's something you think because you see the fandom here, the tiny tiny piece of it, and assume it's all waifubait.
>>82647845
>forced emotion
I've never understood this. What exactly is this? Do you just want episodes of them doing nothing like a regular day? The reason episodes exist is to show the character development between them or show big events that would go un-noticed otherwise.
>I just started this show...
>>>/trash/
>>>/trash/2779271
>>82648378
Can you blame me? It's clearly marketed towards girls.
>>82648563
You had to go to trash to get those links. was it really worth it? Also /sug/ is coming back on Thursday so prepare your fucking anus.
>>82646642
I don't know why but I also get choked up every time I see the "do you know who I am?" scene.
>>82647845
The majority of important characters are gems to be honest family
>>82648571
>clearly marketed towards girls
Sure just like how the old Power Puff girls was "clearly marketed towards girls"
If you are serious then you need to just stop and open your fucking horizons.
Otherwise stop fucking with us
>>82648613
Why
>>82648613
It'd be nice if they were able to be Opal more often. In terms of show structure, I'm fine they don't save for brief moments, but I'd like to think they're doing it more often offscreen since they both went through Pearl's recent colossal fuckup.
>>82648720
some people have emotions and get emotional anon, this is what humans do
I cried like a fucking blown faucet at most of the Rose scenes cuz my mom is long dead and that shit gets you
>>82648605
Are you saying that /trash/ is bad?
>Also /sug/ is coming back on Thursday
We will wait and see what happen that anon.
>>82648613
I didn't choke up, but I had the biggest smile on the face when she sang his song back to him.
All you wanna do~
Is see me turn into~
>>82648720
I dunno, the scene just has so many emotions.
Like, Steven is a little bit scared and nervous about this gigantic multi-limbed lesbian warrior woman that's in front of him.
Is this a whole other person? Does it even like Steven?
But it turns out that Pearl and Amethyst's love and recognition still come through.
>>82648836
I don't like having furry cocks shoved in my face when i open the page.
>>82646950
I am male and hadn't cried in 3 or more years before "Stronger Than You"
>>82648836
>dissing /trash/ wonderland
Get a load of this fagola right here.
>>82646642
Ignore the haters, it's a fun show.You in for some shit now nigga
>>82648969
Like shit's sake each episode is about 10 minutes, piece out one hour of your pointless day to watch a batch and then form your own opinion
When will Steven get to ream peridot? Also tumblr and Reddit get the fuck out
>>82646642
OP you just hit a big turning point in the show, the quality improves significantly from here on out. If you've liked it so far you're probably gonna like it a lot more.
Also it's going to return on Thursday after a several-month hiatus if you didn't know. Stay out of SU threads if you want to avoid spoilers, even if it's not apparent to you yet the show has a whole lot of continuity.
>>82648782
No I am op, I'm an emotional baby too. I was just curious what about it made them sad.
>>82648886
Yeeeah I think it was the power of friendship that got me.
>>82648969
>>82649025
Yeah I've been burning through a few episodes a night. I'm loving it so far
>>82648938
dude, /trash/sug fucking blows
I've been desperate for some SU related interaction before and still avoided that pile
>>82648561
I think he's referring to the amount of moments where characters cry which is a little off putting in my opinion as well. I'm also not really a fan of the show's humor either.
>>82648695
I dunno, SU definitely seems more geared towards girls than PPGs. I can't see little boys liking it that much.
>>82648969
But only if you can stomach anime references and blatent pandering to gay rights activists.
>>82649673
It's all the worst parts of regular /sug/ with the added bonus of being NSFW.
>>82649935
The su reddit took a demographic poll and a large portion of the subs are males.
>>82650084
>bonus
>garbage discussion
>random mlp porn and other gross weird shit
nah, man
>>82646950
i did shed a couple tears while watching SU but not because of the show
i was watching it to forget some really bad shit i just had done, fucking broke when they started to sing
>>82650118
At what estimated age range were they? Because something you have to take into account is that at the end of the day, SU like any Cartoon Network series is targeted mainly for children.
>>82650273
What happened?
>>82650276
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1BsJX4iNnQudB4c9NStc7GGNuz8Z2ZAuw7Tt0a9GrHQw/viewanalytics?usp=form_confirm
Heres the poll. The age and genders are at the bottom. Most were in the 18-25 range.
>>82650276
They were Reddit users, so probably teens to twenties.
>>82650651
let's just say i wasted 2 years of my life at law school
>>82650273
>really bad shit i just had done
Oh come on, it couldnt have been THAT bad
>>82650118
Yeah, but isn't that because the majority of reddit users are male? A tumblr poll would prob show much more girls in the fanbase
>>82651047
Yeah I guess so but that guy was saying not many males watch it but it does have a large male and female fanbase. Kinda like adventure time.
>>82650919
Are you me from the future? It's the end of my first year and I'm not sure If there's going to be a second.
>>82647583
>The show seems very feminine
Im guessing youre op? Keep watching and report back. People say the show changes in tone overtime, a fresh opinion on it would be nice.
>>82646642
why da fuq are you here \?
finish it or face spoliers
>>82651127
>Kinda like adventure time in 2011.
Fixed for you.It hurts
>>82651211
Yes. I'm on episode 24 of season 1. Hulu doesn't have season 2 but I'll probably pirate it. I've cried like every other episode so I have to take a break.
This show is 10/10 though, at least I enjoy it
>>82651228
I think I'll be fine.
Is this show any good? Bare bear bares or whatever. It looks cute. At least this gif makes me want to watch it. I assume it's fairly similar to Steven Universe.
>>82648074
Man this show has hit me hard a few times, Too Many Birthdays was too much.
I think you meant 12th
>>82651371
Oh shit niga youre literally on the verge of greatness.
Also we bare bears is decent. Its relaxing.
>>82647690
>Do people still not get this is made by a woman for young girls
Do kids even like the show?
I seriously haven't seen a single person ever mention it under the age of 17
I work with kids btw.
I see kids with minecraft,FNAF,Adventure time,Regular show and MLP merchandise all the time but never so much as a SU t-shirt.
>>82646642
Seriously, grow a pair.
>>82648561
I think he means the characters hyper emotional responses to things at times bursting into screaming or tears suddenly and with seemingly little provocation.
I think that is more a symptom of the shows compressed run time than a actual trait of the characters though.
When the whole episode's plot has to fit into 11 minutes there isn't much room for illustrating the subtle changes in the characters mood.
>>82648836
>Are you saying that /trash/ is bad?
... Yes? Im pretty sure everyone is in agreement that /trash/ is for the shitposters that have way too much free time.
I mean honestly you'd have to have zero self respect to post there.

Buckle up, you're in for a ride
>>82651734
I'm sure it's different outside of Jesusland (south east USA), but most parents I'm around (I work at a k-12 tutoring center) think the show is downright evil. Not "DnD is satanic" levels, but 'gay atheist agenda' evil. So they don't let their kids watch it. Even outside of super conservative places, the show probably just looks weird and off putting to anyone swooping in with no context and does not dig the artstyle from the get go (I know I didn't), as you really need to go in blind and from the start to get into it.
>>82651371
We Bare Bears is a solid slice of life with some very surprising spikes in quality.be ready cry baby, theres a landmine in that show.
>>82651734
well both my sisters who are 12 and 15 watch it, little one is really into it, to the point that everyday she draws some SU fanart
>>82652330
das cute senpai
>>82652229
But even kids that I know who do not have their parents monitoring what they watch or would not find the show offensive if they do seem to be completely unaware of the shows existence.
>>82652330
Did you introduce them to the show or did they start watching it themselves?
>>82646642
I love this show, but it's hard to be an active fan and a straight male.
And by that I mean it's hard to find porn that isn't lesbian or futa.
>>82651734
My 4 year cousin likes it and her 6 year old brother secretly likes it

>>82647302
>>82647583
>>82647690
>>82647845
I understand all that, but it didn't stop me from liking Sailor Moon when I was younger.in that case I started out fapping to the henshin sequences and skimpy outifts and then found myself getting invested in the characters
>>82652437
It's not hard, there just isn't a lot of it
There's enough, thoughPeridot a best
>>82652549
The only hot thing about Peridot is her voice.
Not a lot of good Amethyst, Garnet, & Jasper content that are straight.
And not a lot of new content either.
>>82652387
That's true, and what I meant on the second part of my post. I think most kids probably have a hard time getting into it because its not just random humor and bright flash explosions, so they lose patience, or there is just something kinda off-kilter about the show most young-un's pick up on and don't know how to put in context with most other media aimed at them. I would have liked the show as a kid, but that's because I am a weird fuck who watched sailor moon as a tyke and was able to pick up on the fact the 'cousins' were totally into one another.
So at the heart of it, my guess is kid turnout is low because a lot of parents are reducing exposure, and even then, it's not really presented in a way that grasps little kids attention, unless they really resonate with the subject matter.
>>82652650
She's pretty decent desu senpai
>>82652387
started by themselves
it was me who wasn't much interested at first, but after checking out some of the later episodes i got hooked and ended up watching the whole thing and well here i am now
>>82652376
she's actually not that bad for her age
>>82652530
It got deleted...
>>82652699
Oh, and the really shitty Steven Bomb format of doing the episodes probably does NOTHING good for more exposure. If you are a 6-11 year old, and happen to miss the bomb, or can't remember the plot from the months and months since the last one, you are more than likely not going to track it down and watch the episodes on a streamer, even if you are decently internet savy. So you just ignore it.
>>82651734
They still don't have any fuckin' SU tshirts is why.
I don't think CN expected it to be such a breakout hit, and it wasn't based off any older properties, so they've dragged their heels and delayed new episodes until they could churn out swag to sell.
>>82646642
It made you cry because you saw two bickering family members set aside their differences to protect a child that they both held dear. Furthermore, Opal singing "Giant Woman" was a confirmation that Gems not only actively listens to what Steven says/sings/does but also hold these moments close to their light projected hearts. They care, and they love him. And all of that was conveyed in a giant sexy woman singing "All you want to do, is see me turn into..."
That's good writing, Anon. That's some damn good writing.
>>82652798
The mods probably deleted it because it could have applied to any one of the various female members of the cast, and they weren't sure which one--ergo, it was deleted for its vagueness and ambiguity.
Or, it might have been deleted becauseit was a spoiler nearly as massive as Steven's junk.
It couldn't have been deleted because it was crass and obscene, no sir. It was because of that otherjizzthat I mentioned.
IDK if OP is still lurking, but I'm curious to hear what he/she thinks is the "worst" episode so far, even if it's just one they were 'meh' over.
>>82651876
god dammit, it took me way too long to figure out that was the inside of her dress and not a third knee with a fat green dick poking out beside it.
Giant Woman is the first legitimately great episode of the show.
When Opal's theme hit (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akk40fqmLKs), I knew this was the episode where the show started showing its awesome potential. It's the first time they got everything right about the show, apart from Steven being slightly annoying.
If you haven't already, OP, just you wait for Steven the Swordfighter where you get the first taste of when the show gets really fucking serious for a moment.
>>82653135
The soundtrack for SU is great
The artists also made this
https://aivi-surasshu.bandcamp.com/album/the-black-box
Let's say in season 3, 4 or 5 a gem is permanently broken
Who do you think they'd kill off?
>>82652910
Heh, that's pretty spot on. I'm a sucker for that type of stuff too. It's soo cute.
>>82653314
Steven discovers that his saliva in a high enough quantity can be used to merge Gem shards into a complete, whole Gem.
>>82652910
>good writing
or a roundabout way to cater to a fetish
>>82653382
We win either way.
>>82652437
I'm a (mostly) straight male and I'm a huge yurifag, but I really don't want to see porn of SU. The artstyle is too cartoony for me to be fappable.
>>82653314
Pearl
She's the worst gem
>>82653419
That's not how you spell Amethyst.
>>82653314
Please let it beLapis. She's too OP, once not-Lavos is taken care of, there won't be any other threats in the show
>>82653419
But she's half of best gem
>>82653100
Yeah I'm still here.
I'd say the episode where there are multiple steven's and they have the time travel orb. I always hate those types of episodes, they're so meaningless and not very fun or entertaining, to me personally at least.
>>82653135
Is Steven the Swordfighter the one where Pearl dies briefly? And he kills her clone? If so, I liked it. I was really sad when Pearl died and seeing the clone cut down stuff that Steven likes.
Like when Steven was like "Why do you have to destroy everything I love!" that got me. Plus Pearl is my favorite character.
>>82651371
just use http://www.watchcartoononline.com/

>>82652910
As much as people bitch about tumblr this SJW that forced drama this, one of the better qualities of SU is that it actually has pretty damn good writing. Greg figuring out just how alien Rose is comes to mind.
>>82653521Never.
>>82653505
Oh this is awesome! Thank you.
>>82653525
The show is the anti-tumblr.
>>82653466
No, I wouldn't, and even then, like said I'm a huge yuri fag. Futa cumdumping a littleboy is absolutely not up my ally. But more power to you writefag!
>>82653591
>>82653521
how the fuck did that get modded with the quickness? did the anon just suddenly get cold feet about his pornfic?
>>82653573
Then you're a faggot, and not one of the cool ones.
>>82653617
Probably.
>>82653590
You mean instead of uselessly soapboxing the hot button issue of the week for cred and comments, it actually portrays some real-life family dynamics and issues in a tasteful and relatable way?
>>82653590
Define what you mean by "anti-tumblr." Seriously, tumblr is thrown around /co/ so much it has lost its meaning, we need a new word filter.
>>82653647
>>82653652
It takes what tumblr has a trannyboner over and rapes them with it. The show goes for the view of love instead of a thousand different isms.
>>82653652
Not that anon but pretty sure they meant this >>82653647
>>82653698
>>82653708
Okay, I can see that. Thanks, anons.
>>82653590
There are people out there who praise this show for deconstructing the gender binary and shit, which I thought was weird af seeing how gems only have a single gender. Like, that shit is less static than what we have now
>>82653647
>portrays some real life family dynamics
What?
>>82653698
I agree that this show has way better and healthier views of love, sexuality, identity, race, etc than your typical Tumblr SJW... but if it's so anti-tumblr, why does tumblr love it?
>>82653646
Dang.
>>82653617
No, I didn't get cold feet;, in fact, I was the same guy who made the earlier post about about Steven healing another character with his semen. The mods deleted that one in less than two minutes.I'm waiting for season three to start to find out what becomes of Jasper because she's in chapter three of my putrid story.
>>82653726
gems technically don't have a gender because they're grown
therefore magical girls
>>82653726
They praise the show for the most shallow reasons, not even getting what it DOES 'deconstruct' in its plots.
>>82652145
Every minute up to your awaited time is progressively longer than the last.
>>82653730
At least half of the issues the show deals with is Gem X didn't listen to Gem Y and their disagreement causes a problem for the family
>>82653591
lol
>>82653726
The show is widely accepted by tumblr while it deconstructs their very foundation and tells them they're the reason shit sucks.
>>82653748
Because idiots can't see when someone is having fun at their expense.
>>82653751
Mine is worse than yours.
>>82653314
I think it'd be more likely for us to see a main character go through the corruption process.
Meguca style.
>>82653755
Right, but the magical girl thing seems to be the default. We haven't had any gems say object to her/she pronouns and say "naw I identify as a magical girl/newhalf/helicopter/etc"
>>82653853
Heh, heh. Newhalf.
>>82653853
Amethyst was a helicopter once.
>>82653853
Because it's a fucking show for kids and treats them as smart enough to get what the show is saying, christ
>>82647833
Vagina comes from the word sheathe in Latin
>>82653853
They're rocks that use what humans call "female" pronouns and never refer to themselves as female, but all female pronouns apply to them so it doesn't become a tumblr-tier trainwreck and everyone watching gets the point, even the young kids.
>>82653853
Is it a problem for the magical girl thing to be default?Most of my OC garbage is my gender, and the gems are meant to be the creator's magical girl OCs
Steven is based on her brother
>>82653135
Tiger Millionaire is the first truly great episode
Giant Woman is still great and was our reward for suffering through Steven's Lion and Arcade Mania
>>82647254
Pfffft look at this fag.
>>82653822
It looks pretty feminist and such to me, though. Could you perhaps explain?
>>82653822
I don't think SU deconstructs Tumblr. I bet Rebecca Sugar and most of the staff loves Tumblr!
The way I look at it, what Sugar is pushing in SU is basically all of tumblrs views on gender and sex and feminism and identity and such, but distilled by a sane person. Sugar just has progressive views while not going off the insane deep end with militant SJW hatred. She believes in loving people not screaming at them on Twitter. So she tries to make her "queer" characters relatable and likable instead of a bunch of mean frumpy translesbians.
>>82654073
>gender as a topic is now feminist
ideologues please go
>>82654073
Feminist how?
>>82654104
That works as well but I've always just seen the show as more pushing of "it's love, these are people, just fucking leave them be or we're going to beat Homeworld's ass". It appeases my boner for Voluntaryism and CLAMP love at the same time.
>>82654073
On the surface it'd look like that, you got a mostly-female cast with a token male. But as the show progresses the token male bails out the gems like a fuckton of the time
>>82653485
do you dislike punk rock anon?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUUlUtUPO98
>>82654114
I don't think that's what I was suggesting. I meant that it actually appears to endorse feminist beliefs.
>>82654175
>>82654178
It's got a large cast of female characters with ample development for each. None of them slot into lazy "stereotypical female character" roles. The writers treat the female characters with respect. There's no sign of catering to a male audience with female sex appeal, etc. Gender roles are mostly nonexistent. That reads to me as a feminist's dream show. Even if Steven does save the gems regularly, it's not really a gender-based thing.
Just compare SU to, say, an actual harem anime that also has a mostly female cast. One sits well with feminists; the other is anathema.
>>82653762
Its funny cause if you wanted to spin it you could say "the gems have the ability to change every aspect of themselves. These forms however are unnatural and the gems will always revert to the original 'birth' construct"
>>82648782
Watched 'Indirect Kiss' yesterday.
>Feels
>>82654357
The show appears to be relatively sex positive for a kid's show
Consider fusion dances,Garnet's backstory, Greg and Rose Quartz,Peridot having trouble consenting to a fusionandPearl's ladyboner for Rose Quartz
>>82653354
...Oh boy, are you gonna feel bad when that actually happens
>>82654357
IT's a show about women fucking everything up and a young white boy having to fix everything and fight for equality for all because everyone keeps PMSing and screwing things up while the women stop a good dad from living with his son.
There is absolutely zero feminism here. First or Second Wave at least.
>>82654178
Wait. You think a feminist show would have a male character never do anything? What?
Feminism is about dismantling gender roles. That's it. What did you think it was?
>>82654073
>Show is named after a boy
>Every female in the show, no matter how powerful, falls for him
(Okay, with one exception - so far - but it's only a matter of time)
>Replaced a powerful, hyper-capable woman in a leadership position who literally died so that he could exist
...Hmmm
>>82654478
I honestly cannot tell whether you're serious or not.
>>82654478
>Feminism is about dismantling gender roles
Not him, but not necessarily. Feminism can refer to anything that benefits women more than men.
>>82654004
>suffering through Steven's Lion
>suffering
the fuck is wrong with you
>>82654510
And what does that have do with anything? Why can't a show starring a boy be feminist?
>>82654537
That's incorrect.
>>82654453
For accidentally spoiling it?
>>82654458
Everyone in the show screws up. Steven more often than anyone. They all also save the day and deal with their mistakes. Greg chose to let him live with the gems. No one is stopping him from living with his dad.
The women have different personalities, skills, and body types. The boy is affectionate and loving while never being shamed for it.
That's feminist.
>>82654521
Completely serious. What do you think it is?
>>82654458
I don't think that really fits. The entire gem cast is female, both the protagonists and antagonists. For every instance where one gem fucks something up, another gem has a moment of heroism. The human female characters are also portrayed sympathetically (see Connie), as are non-white characters (see Connie again; also note the casting of the gems). It's the non-Steven males who get the short end of the stick, really: Marty, Lars, etc. And Greg and Steven seem okay with their arrangement.
And I just listed a bunch of pretty obvious feminism in the show, so there's that too.
>>82654510
Two exceptions, actually: YD and Jasper. At any rate, when love and bonding are major themes, it's a given that most characters will be quick to befriend the protagonist.
>>82654478
Equality, mostly. For the most part, the show does a good job of that. There do exist self-proclaimed "feminists" who happen to be very anti-male and dislike conventions like "damsel in distress", or how often the gems are portrayed as moody and emotional. Thankfully these peeps make up a veeeery small part of the fanbase, though they tend to be a vocal one
Also, tangentially, would you say a show's gender ratio affects how "equal" it is?
>>82654818
Well I meant feminist, not tumblr. Tumblr is made up of very young people who will probably grow out of whatever phase they're going through. Hopefully.
As for gender ratio. Sort of? The majority female with token male approach is a bit refreshing because it's so rare while the reverse is so common. But character development and quality is more important that quantity.
>>82654818
unless the target of the show is equality, equality should not be a factor in the creation of a show
I believe the amount of female characters actually reflects the creator being female and not some agenda
there are some moments, like in the new trailer wheretwo watermelon stevens are hugging before the battle and saying goodbye, and the feminine watermelon runs to battle while the masculine watermelon looks after a baby watermelonin which there is but it isn't a reflection of the whole show
>>82654911
Folks around here tend to conflate "feminism" and "Tumblr" out of habit. Does make it a bit hard to have a discussion.
>>82654991
If the watermelon roles were reversed, there'd still be an agenda, though. Seems like a lose/lose, in terms of trying to avoid that.
>>82648836
I honestly don't understand /trash/. Like the intended purpose is pretty cool, sending threads from other boards that don't belong there to a purgatory is something online forum's have done for ages. What I don't understand is why the fuck you're allowed to make new threads. Since you can make new threads it just turns the board into a sort of slower version of /b/ (that doesn't allow loli or shota for some reason) with nothing but porn dumps and generals that don't belong anywhere else. The addition of /trash/ also gives 4chan like 3 boards that are literally dedicated to nothing.
>>82655080
I don't think so, they were purposely wearing masculine and feminine clothing, which a large majority of the watermelons do not
>>82654991
The way I see it, the watermelons do that because what they do is based on Steven. They use childish methods (the nose knows), form family units despite the fact that they grow their babies in fields, and keep livestock they have no need of eating. They're based on Steven's perception of what communities and families are like... and from Steven's point of view, the dad stays at home and takes care of the kids while the mom(s) go out and beat up monsters.
>>82655138
That actually makes a lot of sense
I like that Steven is kind of a grounding for the magical alien morals
>>82655113
when hiro made it he clearly had no idea what he was doing.
He thought it wasn't going to be overrun by furry porn. Even posted that he would ban it if it happened
I've been out of these threads or a while, the leaks dropping like flies made my penis harder but the knowledge that the show will return on 12th gave me a horrible case of blue balls. Did we get the confirmation that Hit the Diamond is actually about Baseball?
>>82646642
Steven Universe confirmed for coping drug
>>82655243
The crystal gems have to beat the Yellow Diamonds at baseballAnd peridot is a cheerleader
>>82655243
Ayup.
>>82655243
A french tv schedule described it as this:
'Hit the Diamond'
Steven and the Gems are amazed to see 5 Rubies , soldiers sent by Yellow Diamond , coming out of the tracking vessel . Garnet unfuse so that Ruby infiltrate the group and discovers their purpose , but she causes suspicions . To prevent them from searching the area and finding Peridot , Stevens propose a baseball match : If they win , they can search the barn , if they lose, they will leave forever.
>>82656003
... So it's literally United States invading Japan and a spoof o that one episode from Samurai Shamploo? Oh goodie.
>Wake up this morning
>No new leaks
Thank fucking god
>>82656232
I'd usually be with you, but at this point any more leaks and we'd have the full episodes.
>>82656003
Is this the return of many Stevens from Steven and the Stevens?
>>82653839
>Amethyst defects to Homeworld
>Sapphire is corrupted while Ruby is shattered trying to bring her to her senses
>Pearl goes nuts and starts calling Steven Rose
>Peridot and Lapis elope on Watermelon Island
>>82646642
that means you are a lil bitch
now keep wartching it
>>82656493
>amethyst defects to homeworld
no
go away
amethyst was born on earth
>>82654567
>Why can't a show starring a boy be feminist?
...Because it gives precedence to a male, which is precisely the opposite of what feminism is.
>>82654622
Well... I suppose it might be funny to watch Steven collect his spit in jars and buckets for a few days...
>>82654706
>Two exceptions, actually: YD and Jasper.
But YD never met Steven. She doesn't even know he exists.
...In fact YD must still be operating from the assumption Peridot went inexplicably insane after crashing, like Robinson Crusoe or something.
>>82655138
...That's pretty deep.
>>82656003
...But Rubies are dumb. No offense, but they seemed helladumb in 'The Answer'.
Oh, but if this is legit, we should find out whether rubies have innate fire powers, or whether that is unique to "our" Ruby...
Lending credence to my hypothesis that heterofusion bestows unusual powers on Gems the first time they do it.
>>82656493
If Amy joins the Homeworld team or gets shattered I'm fucking dropping SU.
>>82653839
Twist: Steven gets corrupted.
"That's why the people of this world / believe in - Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl - AWGNNRAARRWWLLLFFHH!! "
>>82656736
It's funny when you realise that our Ruby is probably the most intelligent, calm and collected of the whole species, while we've seen how irrational and hotheaded she could be anyway.
>>82648916
2 years here, before Garnet's "we already love you" line in Jailbreak. It fucking tore me.
>>82652437
W-why would there be futa?
>>82656686
What is feminism then? Nobody can ever agree.
>>82656955
Because SSfag touches himself at night.
>>82651855
>That's 1:00am in Spain
Well guys I won't be able to join the streams
>>82652844
They actually are selling SU t-shirts on CN's online store, but I'm not sure if they sell it in retail stores.
>>82656955
The Gems have shapeshifting powers.
>>82653748
Misinterpretation, or because it reinforces their thoughts/beliefs that they are "good people" because they like something cute and something that's about love and loving everyone.
There's an actual word for this, look up the "Dolores Umbridge Paradox".
>>82656813
Well, we'll see about that. If that rumor is true, there's a lot of ways it could go.
If we get five Rubies, it could be like they are all the same... kind of justifying Homeworld's policies... or they could be wildly different, despite looking identical.
Of course, there is probably social pressure to act uniform...
>>82657064
Feminism is the philosophy which operates from the notion that women should have equal rights in every way as men. Equal rights. Not more rights.
It's really nothing else than the idea that any individual human is in principle equal in value to any other, and that anything else is determined by choices and actions.
Of course, it makes a difference where you are born...
>>82657707
"In comics and animation, I’ve noticed something I call the “Dolores Umbridge Paradox”. That is, the people who’re obsessed with sick, gross, dark humour tend to be the biggest sweethearts in real life. The people who only want to see cute, innocent characters getting up to cute, innocent stuff usually turn out to be the nastiest, most vindictive shitheads. Maybe your experience has been different, but it’s something I’ve found to be generally true. "
...Well, it applies to me. I am a complete pussy, but if you looked at my FA account you'd think I'm the love child of David Parker Ray and Katherine Knight.
>>82654818
>Also, tangentially, would you say a show's gender ratio affects how "equal" it is?
I guess I would? Most of the shows and franchises with somewhat of an equal male to female character ratio, or with both great male and female characters have been some of the best I've seen/read/played/etc.
>>82657724
>Feminism is the philosophy which operates from the notion that women should have equal rights in every way as men.
And equal treatment in other areas. Feminists generally dislike things which they think are stereotyping women or portraying them as something "other" (with men as the default).
>>82653748
Because certain people's psychotic woj rage doesn't reflect the actual opinions of their victims.
They're equally ignorant of things which support their victims' views, and tend to try and "claim" them for themselves by willfully misinterpreting them. For example, claiming that a species outside the gender binary actually supports the gender binary (which is a good thing because pwnage) due to being all one gender, despite the clear fact that the show has people who don't fit into static gender roles and treats that as acceptable.
>>82657564
Same here as dutchfag. I got this important presentation too the next day but fuck it. I will try to do a powernap in the evening and watch at 1 anyway
>>82657779
I enjoy both at different times and proportions. My porn feed is filled with nastiest rape fantasies and water sports and yet I get testy eyed at shoujo ai flicks.
>>82657853
Well, we should endeavour to stereotype at all times.
It is a sad fact that especially heterosexual, white, Christian cisgendered men are given to stereotyping anyone who is not like them, with very few exceptions.
>>82657924
Dan ga je toch een paar uur naar bed en zet de wekker voor half één.
>>82646642
BTW how many here hated the show for he first 15 episodes or so? I had to be forced to watch it because Steven was so annoying it made me want to shoot myself and the story seemed to revolve around food. Literally not a single likeable character at the beginning of he show, except maybe Pearl. Then it got better, way better in fact. I wanted to drop the show so many times.
But it was worth it in the end. Now I'm showing it to my gf and she fucking loathes it and I'm the one insisting it's good and she should continue watching.
In fact, I don't know anyone who WASN'T pushed to keep watching until it got good. Do you have the same experience as well or did you like it from the beginning?

I started it yesterday and I just finish the episode where garnet fuse with amethyst, it's pretty great I hope there will be more song like I just want to see a giant women, I already know all at song need more, (any charismatic/hot character or r63 boy later? Yuri fangirling is fine but I need husbando)
>>82658271
I had some afternoons free (plus some boring commutes) and since the eps are 10 minutes long I just blitzed through 'em.
>>82648613
I'm not OP, but Steven has had very little integration with responsible adult figures. He looks up to the CGs, but they are very mysterious. It's implied by the extended opening that they did not raise baby Steven, Greg did then he dropped Steven off when he turned 11 or 12 right before the beginning of the series to learn how to be a Gem. Imagine your single parent gets suddenly remarried - you've seen this person around while they were dating but this new adult is new and mysterious. You're curious, you want to get to know them, and you want to be liked by them. You start spending time with this adult and building a relationship. Then suddenly you find out they are like, a super hero with magic powers, which reinforces your idea that they are like so beyond your understanding and experience, but you still think they are cool and you want them to like you - you aren't sure why they are taking the time to hang out with you and be nice to you. And after they totally demonstrate their insane coolness they look down at you, waiting.
>Oh man, what do I say??
"Do you...know who I am?"
>Am I really so important to you? That you would go to such efforts to protect me?
"All you want to do, is see me turn into.."
> You are, you are so important to me!
It's "parental" validation rolled into validation for the audience that yeah, this goofy little fuck is going to do something amazing, something big.
Giant Woman is one of my favorites too OP, along with An Indirect Kiss
>>82651267
I find myself hoping that Adventure Time will be remembered well, and that more people will appreciate the new episodes when all is said and done.
I'm curious how SU will be remembered in 10 years time.
>>82659026
it will be remembered as the show that leant heavily on the failed 3rd Reich of Feminism, kind of like those Disney super racist shorts, a product of its time, that hold some significant in the new day and age, but was firmly rooted in social problems of the past.
the whole plot line and stuff will be quickly forgotten in favour of looking at the effect it had on people "back in the day"
that or it'll be remembered kind of like Courage, bright and positive, but hiding horror.
>>82658271
I thought it was merely okay at first. I watched it very slowly, like maybe one episode a week. Then around Rose's Room, the show started suddenly getting very, VERY good.
>>82646642
>spoiler
You were probably at awe after seeing the giant woman and it was slightly an overwhelming feeling. I understand you, OP.
>>82659026
I'm sure we'll remember the fifth season really well when it starts airing in 10 years.
>>82659508
Well, it was all he wanted to do.
I've just finished catching up to the show, figured it was a good time with a new season coming up and all. I really liked it, didn't think I would. I hear people compare it to DBZ a lot, and I really think that shows.
But during pretty much the whole time I was watching is was thinking to myself, "man, Adventure Time sure is good".
Also, pic related is best gem.
>>82659599
>I hear people compare it to DBZ a lot, and I really think that shows.
I don't see how.

It took me 6 minutes to figure out what was going on.
Time for serious talk now, OP
What's your opinion on Jasper?
>>82651371
CN Asia just had a marathon of WBB episodes recently. The episodes I haven't seen (I think Charlie was my last) were pretty good. What a nice show about brothers and life.
>>82648860
She is quite the favorite...to me.
>Just not fond of the hair style.

Late, but I just want to point out that that's incorrect. Unless you mean tumblr feminism.

>>82656686
>...Because it gives precedence to a male, which is precisely the opposite of what feminism is.
I have a feeling this is really wrong.
I thought feminism is about females and males.
>>82660270
You are only right if you have a very broad definition of gender roles. Wage gaps have nothing directly to do with gender roles.

If you want some more specific things:
>young boy, hybrid of human and conquering space alien race
>said race was sent to Earth to conquer/use it but ended up protecting humanity instead
>Big hype for the arc when another of their race shows up
>Said member of their race ends up giving a warning of more of their kind coming, more dangerous than they were.
>Two more of the race arrive at the climax of said arc
>Now we're getting hype for an arc dealing with the leader of a galactic, conquering empire
and, looking into more spoiler-y stuff and speculation for the future:
>One alien that's more disgruntled/has history with the lead characters ends up becoming really close to the hybrid child and that facilitates them becoming closer to the others
>Potentially here, not saying it's certain to happen, the powerful member of their race that invaded is later forced to comply/help the good guys reluctantly. ends up becoming a good guy but still being an angry prick.
>>82660474
Those are just minor details though. My skepticism about your reasoning is because you are saying that you and by extension others like or might like SU because it's like DBZ, but no one in their right mind would think someone would like SU just because they like DBZ. They are two VERY different shows regardless of their plot similarities. People don't watch DBZ because of they have a boner for those very specific plot points you mentioned. They watch it because of much broader things. Science fiction setting and so can superhuman fights, but SU and DBZ differ in a many very significant ways too.
I would never say "you love DBZ so you are probably going to love SU".
