So, how's the beginning of the new season treating everyone. I ducked out of the tread as soon as the leaks began to sprung.
Personally really exited for tomorrow's episode just because we'll actually be seeing Lapis the character rather than Lapis the exposition driver. I love her design, the fact that she's only four colors and has water powers (huge sucker for anything with water powers), but because her character has really shined though is the only reason she's not my favorite yet.

Hey guys can I ask a question? What do you guys think of Jasper?

I do think she's a bad individual but would you say she's a villain who deserves everything that happens to her? I'm curious.
 
We've seen 0 positive traits from her. I say lay on the despair.
 
Jasper is a soldier she fought in the wars for Earth. She -aside from Jap-achite- has had like 5 lines. Though 1 of these lines being
"I was there, you know. At the first war for this garbage planet. I fought against your armies. I respected your tactics."
After Steven's panic attack over hurting the cluster I assume that Rose felt alot of pain for hurt gems in general. So I assume that her tactics generally involved saving as many gems as she could. Not just because it would be tactically sound but because she cared for the gems around her as opposed the Homeworld tactics that probably involved throwing large numbers at things and not worrying about the loses.

Not only that but Jasper's probably already on the road to redemption has she is probably learning humility and the fact that her face wasn't shown in the Watermelon Island her gem might be cracked and come crawling to 'Rose' begging for help.

Not only that but the correlation to Vegeta is hilarious that she came to Earth nothing is going right for her
Her ship destroyed
Trapped in fusion
Abandoned in the earth
Her escort-y turned traitor
Turning traitor may be her only option and hopefully learns to like it. Other wise she could go back to Homeworld once the chance arises once Yellow Diamond finds her weapon hasn't woken up.
 
i don't follow the show much anymore but I definitely appreciate shade being thrown at Jersey. A+, universe peeps
 
So guys...we got leaks again.

CN of France aired the next 2 episodes already because apparently each CN Branch likes doing their own thing. So if you want to see them, they're on the nets already :I

Lapis seriously has negative chill with Peridot. Justifiably so, but it was very entertaining and heart-wrenching to shoot down every attempt of friendship. The pool ws a very nice try, but um...yeah.... And wow, that cliffhanger at the end would have been nice with the schedule CN of America has....except now were already spoiled so waaa.

Also wow, those Rubies are not the shiniest gem in the cluster, are they? Episode was cute and fun, was smiling the whole way through.
 
Also be warned the next episode after that is tomorrow lmao :V
 
so, is anyone using the world of steven universe to watch these episodes? for some reason, i'm getting pop-ups from that site, and i normally don't. plus, i have adblocker on.
 
my malware scan isn't picking anything up. that's the only site that's freaking out. even google chrome is popping up and claiming that the site's malicious.
 
yeah i'm not getting squat... uh......... i can't really help you. sorry. there should be other sites like KissCartoon or something.
 
nah, it's fine. the site you linked in the previous spoiler works fine.
 
So, I've seen all of the In Too Deep eps, read all the comics, and played Attack of the Light. So I'm now gonna gush a bunch of theories and feelings at you.
tumblr_inline_o6dwyaTeLu1tfdoik_500.gif

Ok to start off with Same Old World completely destroyed one of my theories I was brewing for a while now. So in the comics there are 2 trapped gems that attack Steven, both where 'activated' when they attacked. And the only other trapped gem that has attacked is the Desert Glass gem trapped in a pillow who attacked again after landing on the beach after being used by Amethyst and Steven. This lead to me to believe that trapped gems might only be conscious in use, but Lapis blew that theory out of the water. Also I can't be happier seeing happy Lapis if only for a moment

Barn Mates was essentially everything I wanted and more. First off my theory of Lapii are messengers is all but confirmed by Lapis and Peridot the last in these 2 episodes. If Lapii all have that mirror ability and are 'akin to flying and water' and that Lapis was only suppose to be on earth for a short time, probably to see how the war was going and report back, in my book it's all but confirmed. Also while I love seeing Lapis happy brooding Lapis is kinda fun to watch, just because she tries for Steven, but just can't for anyone else. Also Peridot need to be loved by everyone just because she can't stand knowing some couldn't give to shits about her is gonna be interesting to see if they delve deeper into this and have her cope with not being liked by someone.

Hit the Diamond, not what I was expecting but opened a whole new world of possibilities. First off, Earl, Bob, and Sophie had me rolling. Hell Bob in general had me this whole episode, the fact that they brought the joke around full circle already is hilarious and I wounder how much fuel this running gag has left (because I kind never want it to end). Not only that but it was nice to see Bob actually get into the game after awhile, I mean sure even at the end she didn't seem to care that much, but she did actualy put more and more effort into the game as it went on (like how she actually dove for a ball and when she was on second 'chatting up' goofy ruby as opposed to having Amethyst/Pearl do those things). Not only that but her giving Saph and Ruby a thumbs up after screwing up because they were to busy flirting was hilarious. Though were probably only gonna she brooding Lapis for only a while as she'll eventually adjust and cheer up (probably midway through or toward the end of Summer of Steven) and we'll only see gumpy Lapis again when drama occurs (so probably often). Also Peridot can't run normally, she has to frog hop, which I wonder if that will change once she gets her Crystal Gem form.

But the most important thing about this ep. is that the Rubies were hunting Jasper. One, Rubies confirmed red shirts. They are the away team, more dangerous, you know that someone might 'die' send more numbers. Which to me made me think, why did they send two gems to Earth on a warship to just check the cluster? You know a warship with finger lasers, gem-destabilizing weaponry, and who knows how many gem-destabilizing holding cells. I think the cluster was just a secondary mission, something for the Peridot to do. But I think the main mission from the start maybe of been Rose. Get Rose, bring her back, and have her dealt with, set an example of traitors. Why now and not before, well the cluster, kill two birds with one stone. Peridot would deal with cheeking the cluster while Jasper with the new gem-destabilizing tech and a warship take Rose by surprise and get out with plenty of time before the cluster emerges.
Also the 5 Rubies are probably a testament to the quality of how the gems are being manufactured from Homeworld colonies of late. Like in comparison to Garnet's Ruby, The Answer Rubies, and the 5 Rubies there isn't much difference. Yes Garnet's Ruby is deferentially more competent than the others, but that could just be because she is of a finer cut or facet. Like how Peridot is constantly referring to herself as a facet 5, it could mean she not only id's herself by it, but also take pride in it. I mean she was chosen to pilot a warship with a veteran Jasper to check on a massive new bioweapon. (unless if is an Invader Zim moment and they sent her with Jasper just because she was annoying and wanted to send her somewhere far and Jasper needed pilot.)

And then there is Steven Floats. Not much to say about this one. Good to see Steven finally realize his powers are tided to his emotions and learn a new power at the end/beginning of a 'season' outside of Say Uncle. And good to see the gems again in a normal environment doing gem things. Also Pearl reactions are just as priceless as Say Uncle so that's a pulse.
Kinda of solid way to end the 'In too deep' special really.
 
Bob...

wow.png


Just look at all the fucks I give. No seriously just look.
 
i'm really glad that Lapis is bitter and grumpy after all those months of mental torment
her going back to just being moe would be disappointing

well it's kinda half and half... She still brings out her sweet side for Steven which is like super cute. But I also like "No Shits Given" Lapis cause... well... she's still cute when she isn't taking your crap.
 
I think we need to set the record straight here
Lapis is who talks to Steven
Everyone else? They get Bob.

That's like seven episodes ahead of US by the end of this week holy shit
 
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i am like spoiled from this

fuck it i'm ruining my appetite. Thank France you Fucker
 
So I realized something watching Same Old World for like the tenth time. Lapis saw the Earth got 'nuked'. The light after everyone fled wasn't just a transition thing. Also I realized why they might of 'nuked' the earth. It was probably due to Rose constantly convincing other gems to join the rebellion and rather than risk a full scale uprising against the hierarchy just destroy all opposition in one go.
 
aaaaaaaaaand that's why Russia is gone.

fuck... this also explains the cluster, cause remember what Peridot said about it? That it was made from all of the shattered gems from the war... The nuke did that. it made it possible to make such a huge cluster.
 
steven universe is a very good show. like, damn.
mild steven floats spoilers but
did anyone else think the episode seemed a little more... season one-esque? like, the humor seemed a lot more cartoony than usual, like it was trying to go back to its roots a bit. i don't know if it's because they're back in beach city and a lot of the drama is over for now, but it was a teensy bit jarring to see a tone shift like that. not that it was a bad episode!

To be fair the begging/endings 'seasons' are always kinda silly. (SU isn't really structured with seasons in mind so seasons is fairly lose term). IMO it is kinda refreshing, kinda jarring, but ultimately it's a milestone. Homeworld gems are on earth, cluster's been dealt with, and now we are have another silly power ep. to end with and refresh the pallet.

Sorry for triple posting but a PSA, we got more leaks just so people know.
Also we'll probably have Summer of Steven dates soon, so keep an eye out.
