    I personally think the monsters are all fallen gems that have lost their memories remenants of a civil war of some kind

    I somehow missed this ep on the first go around, caught it today on a repeat

    It was really amazing seeing a show tackle "death" like that in a kids show (ostensibly)

    Yeah that swordfighting music was absolutely incredible

    I also liked how they used pretty solid Japanese for the subtitled samurai movies

    Updated the OP a but. I'll fill in some youtube clips asap

    New episode stuff

    Sugilite is legit terrifying .
    Strong in the real way is an awesome song.
    I love they get a singer for a voice again and they never actually sing.
    Nikki Minaj really got into her role.

    in the midst of being sick for a while, I totes forgot to say,

    *GASP* There's a song in this one :D
    Rebecca Sugar doesn't get enough credit for adding these little bits of awesome in a show.

    Adventure Time is still a good show, but it is certainly diminished without her providing songs like this.

    I don't see how that plan could possibly work. Just fusing two gems yields a being that is at least 20 feet tall and possesses extra arms at the very least. What's he gonna do, pretend his mom is a 50 foot tall six-armed giant?

    It's probably a DBZ thing where getting even more powerful makes you smaller instead of bigger.

    Also it says he wants to impress Connies Parents. Given its Steven impress may not mean what it does for us

    Steven has no barometer for normal. Like in Frybo it never occurs to him that hed need a job or in Arcade mania that money is important past using it for immediate needs . Its actually pretty clever how they use that in so many different ways.

    All things considered, Steven is a pretty believable kid.

    Like, my inner critic never clicks on all "Wait why would we do that" or anything.

    He seems very much like what a kid might be like if he grew up surrounded by badass superheroines.

    Yo I watched this show from start to finish today. Super solid. There was only one episode that I thought was a bit boring (Lion 2: The Movie).

    I'm mostly in love with the soundtrack. Makes me want to write some stuff myself.

    I really liked Lion 2, but I think Connie and Steven are super adorable together so I may be a little biased. :P

    Lion 2 has a Batcave. Theres even a giant penny.

    Its a nice lore episode for Rose and it sets up Steven and Connie better than Bubble Buddies. Shes more his equal here

    this show is so interesting to me as a product of my generation

    the way that it wears influences from anime and American cartoons and also video games on its sleeve

    kind of reminds me of Scott Pilgrim in that way

    Oh, I don't think it's a terrible episode. It's just the only episode in which I found myself not actually paying attention to what was happening.

    Lars and Sadie episode!
    Steven is shockingly competent as a donut jockey. And very ruthless
    That said Im glad even he realizes Lars was being am ass. Steven not being completely oblivious is nice.
    Amethyst gives no fucks

    I think Steven isn't oblivious at all, but just tries to respond to Lars' behavior with positivity. See the episode where Lars refers to Rose as Steven's "weird mom" and Steven's attitude changes completely.

    something very eerily melancholy about this tune.

    Very reminiscent of Mother/Earthbound.

    I LEARNED HOW TO BE TRUE TO MYSELF

    BY WATCHING MYSELF DIIIIIIE

    THIS SHOW IS SO GOOD.

    last three eps have been awesome.

  • TankHammerTankHammer Atlanta Ghostbuster Atlanta, GARegistered User regular
    I think if I wanted to hook someone on this show Steven and the Stevens would have to be one of the episodes I show them.

  • NotoriusBENNotoriusBEN Registered User regular
    Rebecca Sugar is certainly not pulling any punches with the new episodes. I cannot wait for the episode that Steven manifests his shield in, and I can only hope its as epic as 'Lion 2: The movie' was. (Not a spoiler, its in a lot of the commercial spots for the show)

    Steven does have access to a sword with Lion, but it seems a little to in line with traditional Hero stories. I hope he opts for more of a Captain America vibe and simply defend against attacks and open up combos for the other Gems to exploit, or simply huck the shield really really hard at enemies and have it return to him.

    Also, Garnet is still a baller, the ultimate mentor in letting Steven try even if it was kinda of foregone that he would fail.
