This is it, y’all! Season Finale!   Though it does feel like a “Series Finale” in that every plot seems resolved sorta way, though there is still that movie, and the fact that the marketing was pretty clear in saying … Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 Episode 29 “Change Your Mind”

So guess what? I made it all the way to the airing of this episode, all the long long months, without hearing it before tonight. Stray observations Adam Muto was one of the boarders on this episode, along with Joe … Continue reading Steven Universe s5e28: “Escapism”

Gonna be a simple discuss page from me. Won’t be able to watch it until laters. So have at it y’all!   I’ll be here, sitting in the corner.   Waiting… Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 Episode 27 “Together Alone”

Oh dip, the hiatus is finally over for real! A lot has changed for so many of us since Legs originally aired on the CN app months ago, hasn’t it? We’ll all have some catching up to do, I’m sure, … Continue reading Steven Universe s5e25: “Familiar”

It’s been a long time, but we’re finally here! Diamond Days is upon us!

Warning: This article contains huge spoilers for Steven Universe up to and including the most recent episode, “Reunited.” Previously I wrote on how the introduction of Yellow and Blue Diamond, two of Steven Universe’s main antagonists, cemented them as credible … Continue reading Conflicted Diamonds: How Steven Universe Made Its Villains Interesting (Part II)

Warning: This article contains huge spoilers for Steven Universe up to and including the most recent episode, “Reunited.” For me, villains are usually the best part of a story. At best, they’re an essential part of the story’s conflict; at … Continue reading Conflicted Diamonds: How Steven Universe Made Its Villains Interesting (Part I)

THEY‘RE FRICKIN MARRIED!!!!!!! As I’ve spent the entire week harping on, this is an historic event. Never before in the history of television has a same-sex wedding been shown in what is, ultimately, a kids’ show. Nowhere in the world, to my … Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 Episode 23/24: Reunited

Alright! So alot happened. Pearl obsessing over the ceremony. Peridot complaining. Amethyst nonchalantly throwing chairs. Ruby and Sapphire being cute. Oh and Bismuth’s back. Bismuth’s back! So, like most episodes this week, it initially starts with reacting with the revelation, before diving … Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 Episode 22: “Made of Honor”

This week is an historic event in television. Never before, so far as I am aware, has a family-friendly show featured a same-gender wedding. Ruby and Sapphire are getting married. That’s real, and that’s happening. RUBY AND SAPPHIRE ARE GETTING MARRIED!!! … Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 Episode 22: The Question

After that nice serving of backstory dump yesterday, now we get a relaxed episode with some nice introspection. Okay, maybe not relaxed, but definitely crying. And frustration. And more crying. More or less like for Sapphire yesterday, Amethyst get’s a … Continue reading Steven Universe S5E20: “What’s Your Problem?”

After May’s “A Single Pale Rose” dropped the reveal of the century on us (I caaaaalled it, y’all! I called it!) it was clear that the next few episodes at least would deal with the revelation of Pink Diamond’s true … Continue reading Steven Universe S5E19: Now We’re Only Falling Apart

Warning: contains major spoilers for recent episodes, especially “Can’t Go Back.”  This week’s Steven Universe episodes put fans through the emotional wringer. The second episode, “A Single Pale Rose,” will undoubtedly draw the most attention with its game-changing revelations about … Continue reading Steven Universe: Why Lapis Lazuli Matters

Ohhhhhhh boi this is it. First comes the excitement of new episodes. Then catharsis and surprise of “What will happen next?” when eyeballs are sufficiently replenished of new Steven Universe episodes. Before the slow, encroaching realization that there is only … Continue reading Steven Universe: Season 5 Episode 17-18 “Can’t Go Back/ A Single Pale Rose”

For those who watched the latest batch of episodes a month prior before they officially aired these past weeks, Steven Universe will air two episodes that were not available through the CN app at the time, before gracefully receding into the unknowable … Continue reading Redundant Reminder: Steven Universe to Air Half-Hour Special on May 7th

It’s been a very townie-focused week on Steven Universe, aside from Your Mother and Mine. In fact one could almost say that one of the main throughlines of this week the members of Sadie Killer and the Suspects (fka the Cool … Continue reading Steven Universe season 5 episode 16 “Letters to Lars”

Well waddaya know it. Another Garnet centric episode! But this one delves more into her own self-doubts, a turn she has seen less of then Pearl or Amethyst, since she is the most stable of the Gems. In fact, this … Continue reading Steven Universe: Season 5 Episode 15 “Pool Hopping”

After yesterday’s big lore episode, today’s Steven Universe was a lot more low-key. It was a classic townie episode, but they took the opportunity to play with the format a bit by having the whole thing take place even more … Continue reading Steven Universe Season 5 episode 14 “The Big Show”
