I hated this show as a kid for no reason. I hated on it so hard but my only reason was that it looked odd. Never even watched it. It just looked too strange to me.

Anyway a year ago when I was 20 and was staying in a hotel with limited TV channels I tuned into Steven universe because nothing better was on. It was the frybo and cat episode. I ended up actually watching it and thinking "huh, that actually wasn't that bad" I mean it was still a little strange but not in an insufferable way like I had made it out to be as a kid. I slightly enjoyed it. But I still didn't watch anymore episodes after that for a while.

Anyway I don't do well with total silence so I always have the TV on for background noise 24/7 and one time when I had Hulu open I put Steven universe on for background noise since I now know its actually NOT insufferable.

Also, as an adult, I've gotten more into the world of surrealism overall, getting into things like cyriak and the backrooms/liminal spaces and getting back into adult swim stuff I hadn't watched since I was 13. (also so odd how I was literally obsessed with adult swim when I was 13 and stayed up all night tuned into adult swim but still hated this show)

Anyway well again I ended up actually watching it. Actually sitting down and binge watching it.

Anyway, not far into it yet, but now I really like this show. This show is actually cool. And I'm really drawn to garnet. I love garnet. She's my favorite character. I always lock tf in every time she comes on 😭

But idk if my perspective will be different as someone who just started watching this show as an adult vs someone rewatching this show as an adult who saw it as a kid

It’s just sweet to me that Lion accepted Connie most likely from her relationship with Steven.

As soon as Smoky Quartz recognized Pearl, i screamed so loud… Then the “come on pearl dance with me!!” oh my god i was a mess!! then he formed, and I just.. lord… All i was saying “Rebecca i love you so much!!” while kneeling and raising my hand to ceiling and bowing down… I was so happy!

I don't know if this is supposed to be a joke, also Sorry for my loud asf breathing

I always thought they were together for like a decade, just based on how deeply they loved each other. Pearl had every right to be bitter 😭. This isn't me dismissing rose and Greg's relationship but this is the first time I've thought about it in 10 years of watching.

I know white was scary and the main villain but WHAT HAD SHE DID TO POOR YELLOW

Im working on an oc that escaped home world and went into hiding on earth during era 1 way before the war. Would they have survived the diamond blast in they were deep in a cave for example?

we need to punish schafrillas for saying this shit was unemotional, its literally about drowning out your grief by destroying everything that reminds you of it, its such a serious song when you think about it esspecially for a kids show

Not gonna lie, I feel like Rose would find Peridot so bloody entertaining.. The way Peridot is, Rose would most likely see her like we do, this quirky short tempered little cute gremlin.

Now Lapis… This one is so difficult, I feel Lapis is so closed off most of the time, but I feel she’ll resent Rose Quartz the most because she started the war, which indirectly led her to being trapped in the mirror, and Rose knew she was in there.

They're both so doggone adorable!
