Welcome to the
Steven_Universe.png

thread!


This thread is not just for discussing the show, but also for getting people interested in it as well.
In Steven Universe, the world is protected from evil by the Crystal Gems, a group of intergalactic warriors who draw their power from special magic gem stones. The four Gems are Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl and Steven. Steven is a boy who inherited a gemstone from his mother, a Crystal Gem named Rose Quartz. As Steven tries to figure out the secrets to using his gem, he spends his days in Beach City doing activities with the other Crystal Gems, whether it's helping them save the universe or just hanging out.

Throughout the first season it is slowly revealed that the four Crystal Gems in Beach City are the remnants of a once great interplanetary civilization of Gems. Most of the locations visited by the Gems are ruined shrines or locations that were once of great importance to Gem culture, but have become derelict and fallen into disrepair during hundreds of years of neglect. The second half of the season deals with this theme in greater depth, revealing that the Gems are cut off from their home world and that the monsters and artifacts they encounter throughout their adventures are actually Gems who have lost the ability to maintain rational humanoid forms.

This show was made by Rebecca Sugar, someone who also happened to help with Adventure Time!

That's all I can think of for now, hope I have at least piqued the interest of at least a single person. Soo, let the general discussion begin?

I have been meaning to get into this show, but I didn't really think much of it until a friend of mine on the FanFiction.Net forums (don't judge me) started geeking on about it. Anyone know where I can start from the beginning?
 
I haven't seen this show since the Pearl+Amethyst transformation episode. I wanted to continue it but Space Dandy was going in the second season, Over the garden came out and both Wander over yonder and Gravity falls released new episodes. Soooo

Just get around to it when you can, it still has not ceased to be amazing~.. Well, in my opinion, anyway.
 
I really, really love this show. Just watched the latest episode, The Test.

Gonna watch that when I get home. Last episode I watched was...
Stevonnie omg I can't I loved that entire scene, and the character is just SOOOO amazing~~ <3
 
I friggin love this show, my boyfriend and I have seen every episode and typically watch together, it's just so amazing
 
I been in love with the show since the pilot episode. Showed that thing to everyone within showing range.

I really love the music, too. It creates a very unique atmosphere I think. This song was from an older episode, but it's still amazing (as was the episode, of course).
 
Yessss, Steven Universeee is finally getting some love! I have loved this show since the pilot as well. I watch it as soon as a new episode is released and not a millisecond after. The music is indeed amazing. Especially the little instrumentals that play during the credits. My fav episodes have got to be "Steven and the Stevens", "Beach Party", "Too Many Birthdays" and...oh fuck, I love every episode!

Cannot wait until more of the secrets are revealed.
edit: I love Lars even though he is one of the biggest dicks I've ever seen in a show.
 
The thing I look forward to all the time is fusions, ever since Giant Woman introduced them. I just love them so much (love fusion dancing in all forms). So, I REALLY liked Alone Together, though I hope that didn't mean Steven can't fuse with the other Gems. Also really looking forward to other gems being introduced, ever since Lapis. Hoping for a confrontation with Peridot too.
 
I loved the ambiguity in Stevannie. And Sugalite is my fav character so far(Nicki is a huge factor tbh) and I'm lookin forward for Pearl+Garnet fusion, but who isn't after all?
I've heard sadly that re-runs during the week got cancelled in America and replaced with more Gumball and Teen Titans? The show seems on risk for not being very marketable :c
 
So. Wait. Can ALL gems fuse? Or just Crystal Gems....? And yes. The dances (and the music) right before a gem fusion, so amazing~ <3 (And even DURING THE FUSION!!)
Far as we've seen, all main characters who are gems can fuse, with each other and others. And the Gems seem to take it as natural that Gems are able to fuse, so I don't see any reason Lapis and Peridot couldn't fuse with each other or something.

Well, Season 1 still has 13 more episodes, and the show has already been renewed for a second season with another 52 episodes, so it doesn't look like it's doing that poorly.

I'm still waiting for Emerald to be a thing. I needs it. But yeah, if any gems can fuse, that would make the show so much MORE interesting than what it already is, mind blowing, I know!! And I'm certain that Steven fusing with a human doesn't mean he can't fuse with gems. I *personally* think the reason he was able to fuse easier with a human, than with any of the gems, is because Steven personally identifies himself as more of a human. And he's been more around humans than gems, if that makes sense.
 
I did read that Rebecca and her bro watched the entire series of NGE in just two days. They said it was a baaaad idea.

The ENTIRE NGE series?

Like... ENTIRE?
Even the one where everyone is in a normal high school student until they find a giant robot under the school?

And the one where they attend NERV Academy and instead of robots they have weapons (called EVAs) and fight humanoid Angels?

And the other one that's pretty much Angelic Days over again?

And the one that stars Shinji Ikari as a detective...?

Those are all real legit serialized sanctioned mangas.
 
You can't watch a comic. You read them.

Steven Universe is a great show I cry to it sometimes. That's all I'll say. Farewell!

*fades away*

don't. the Eva mangas are like fungi growing on your brain ever so slowly. It hurts reading them. The movie is like derp and the show is meh until the very end where the story shits the bed and the animation crew has no money to point where they have to use crayons and still frames. BEST ANIMU EVER 10 out WEEB.
 
Lol There is something about NGE I just love. Perhaps because it is a gargantuan mindfuck and there are some twisted characters. I love it. Even when the plot and the bit with the angels get a bit confusing and characters happen to do things that don't make sense (especially in the movies) at times. I love it.

You totally can watch a comic. You watch a page until you understand it completely, then watch the next page.

There are also motion comics.
