I'm happy to see some of Sardonyx's flaws inthis episode. Until now, of the non Garnet fusions we've only really seen Sugilite mess up, so Its cool seeing Sardonyx get a bit roo i to herself at others expense.

I'm so happy that pictures of Steven in skirts and dresses don't even raise alarm bells for anyone anymore.

The new episode felt sort of like an episode of Arthur, I think, IDK why it just had that feel.

I took a look at Takafumi Hori's Twitter and he's apparently a huge Seven Universe fan, judging by how many tweets he has about it. Thats really sweet :3:

This might be the most meaningful episode for me, personally, in the entire series.

As an anxiety sufferer, I deal with unwanted thoughts every day, and letting those thoughts pass is a consistent struggle. The new song is going to be a really useful tool for me in the future. I hope it helps out all the anxious kids watchign too.

I feel really bad now for not getting the episode. I wanted to enjoy a good episode too! :(

try watching it a couple more times! I often find that giving things a second watch will change how i feel about it

Where did the thread get this idea that ending without a star indicates a two-parter? Episodes end without a star when the mood of the episode doesn't call or a star. This can include two-parters, since the mood of cliffhanger is tense and a star-out would hurt that, but it also happens at the end of quiet, contemplative, or emotional episodes. Lion 3, Rose's Scabbard, and Alone Together all end without Stars, and none of the mare two-parters.

Like everything else in Steven Universe, Star-out vs vut-to-black is connected to emotion, not plot.

I loved Garnet shwoing up for half a second like "Yeah I knew you'd need me heres some power, peace". That was good


Also Smiley and Frowney were 100% gay

Rebecca Sugar, Human Avatar of Everything Good In The Universe posted:

"Initially with fusion, what I was really excited about was finding a way to talk about relationships that would be fun and exciting and action-oriented in this show that’s primarily targeted at six to 11 year old boys. I wanted the concept of healthy relationship vs. an unhealthy relationship to be exciting as good guy vs. bad guy. The idea of working on your relationship and caring about it would be as exciting as working out and becoming a buff, amazing fighter. This is something that can benefit you and your life and the people around you, if you sort of care about these relationships that you’re in with everyone around you and with someone that you love. I wanted that to be really cool and exciting."

Simple, unobtrusive ways to establish/hint at a character as trans:

- Show them taking hormones

- Flashback showing them pre-transition

- Offhand comment about their old "style"

- Trans voice actor

- Pink/white/blue color scheme

- ten trips to the bathroom within three minutes

Pearl has enough tragic queer backstory going on. She deserves some happiness. And sure maybe there will be some drama over certain aspects of Pearls past that they'll have to work through but they can work it out.
