I saw the gif, but by the time I came back to show my wife, it no longer works.

[TheEvilDog]

IT REALLY WENT DOWN LAST NIGHT

404, what were you trying to post?

Spoilers, obviously.

[Blue Kitty]

Well dang, didn't see that they said they would delete it after so long. Here it is again:

Wait so.....

(click to show/hide)

Rose is/was pink diamond?  I figured it would end up that way but it leaves so many questions!

I really hope a new episode is coming soon, the way they ended it it seemed like there may be a new one next week, but the fallout is gonna be immense

[de_la_Nae]

Finally caught up.

Woooooo!

[SordidEuphemism]

Fits perfectly with

(click to show/hide)

Pearl's neuroses, and the Bismuth ep where it was said Rose's sword couldn't shatter gems. I also wonder if Yellow Diamond knows, and has decided to maintain the lie - despite the harm it causes Blue - because the truth would embolden her own rebels (based on her aggressive behavior in the Trial)

.

Excellent ep, but I have to admit given the title, I hoped it was a return of Pearl's mystery girlfriend.

Then again, in a way, I guess it was.

maybe, re: Trial, but honestly i wouldn't be surprised if it was just *she doesn't handle her feelings well*.

[LeeC]

(click to show/hide)

Yellow diamond seems like the kind to really steam roll or push her agenda onto others. I wouldn't be surprised if she pushed Pink diamond to the point of thinking war was inevitable, or if she just knew about the ploy and found that it would strengthen her own position to get rid of pink diamond. Perhaps even bring her closer to Blue Diamond is some sort of unrequited love?

[de_la_Nae]

sorry Lee, meant to reply earlier

(click to show/hide)

Maybe, but honestly it's not like we don't have countless examples of what happens when people in positions of cultural power & privilege systems get invested in those. Especially ones that tend to express anger more easily or readily than other emotions.

She's a Diamond. This is Order. It is Right for We to Rule. Crush the dissent, kill the dissent, erase the dissent, and return to Order.

IT'S COMING BACK JULY 2ND

[Method of Madness]

Nice! I wonder when it'll leak.

[de_la_Nae]

So in case anyone didn't know there's been a handful of episodes dropping most of the week.

they're uh, they're pretty good.

no unmarked spoilers, people.

(click to show/hide)

Bismuuuuuuuuuth eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

also all the other stuff so far eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Blue Kitty]

All that stuff and they leave us on that

[RedWolf4]

Classic Crewniverse, leaving us champing at the bit for more.

[de_la_Nae]

I'm actually *very* tired of this model. I'm tired of 6-10 12 minute episodes *a year*. I'm tired of 'bombs', I'm tired of 'events'.

Luckily for these assholes, the actual show-makers are good at what they do and got me interested a long time ago. But I might never follow another show like this again.

[de_la_Nae]

that said, at least it's easy for me to catch up, when they finally come out.

I don't bother paying much attention, though. if it wasn't for internet people I wouldn't notice when episodes come out. I have no more patience in my life for 'get hype'.

that is, until I hear "We, are the Crystal Gems..." Then I'm back again. But I'm sad, because I fear hitting a day, before this show wraps up, when I won't be any more. Jerked around by release scheduling too many times to care any more. And I don't want that to happen to good work that comes after, from other show-makers and other creators. So I don't want this way of doing things to catch on.

[LTK]

So this appeared on Prime Video and I'm watching the first season when I notice that Steven's dad has tan lines corresponding to Steven's outfit. What's up with that?

[de_la_Nae]

Mystery tan lines remain a mystery.

[Blue Kitty]

Whoa, that season finale was amazing. But where do we go from there?

(click to show/hide)

I loved Rainbow Quartz 2.0 and Sunstone, also Peridot's rad shades

[LTK]

Damn, that was really something.

(click to show/hide)

Honestly, it was a bit unsatisfying. It felt like a five-course meal all heaped up on a single plate. Blue and Yellow turn against Steven, and then they like him again, time to rebel against White! Now let's introduce three new fusions in the space of three minutes! Now everyone's grayscaled, Steven gets deus-ex-gemina'd, he works his magic on White and then everyone's fine again. Oh, and White Diamond's cracked Pearl was actually Pink's pearl, I guess? Okay, everyone go to Earth! Also Lars is back. Happy ending, roll credits.

Also, Steven, you literally just used your shield to deflect Yellow's attack on Blue, how did it not occur to you to try the same against White? Or shield bubble out of Garnet's grasp? C'mon dude.

[Blue Kitty]

Who knew this all the way from episode one would be a huge foreshadow

The episodes before showed the Pink Pearl in Steven's dream/memories and Blue mentions Pink would lose her Pearl in the dream/memory in this episode

[LTK]

Speaking of which, did you catch the callback to the pilot episode?

[de_la_Nae]

(click to show/hide)

I feel pretty good about it ending right there. Maybe an epilogue episode or special, but I feel like we're finished, it's done, that's it, more or less everything worth thinking about is in as good an ending spot as it can be.

yeah, probably a goodbye episode, more i think of it. but like i said, i'm tired of waiting on this show, as much as I love it. that hasn't changed. And it's run for more years than we deserve, perhaps.

[Blue Kitty]

It had to be pointed out to me

Also this isn't the end, only the end of this phase of the show. They've said that a whole new season is gonna start but they are very tight lipped on everything else.

[Method of Madness]

So what’s everyone think of Future so far?

[Blue Kitty]

Kind of depressing. Steven seems unable to cope with how things are changing and folks are speculating he might become corrupted because of it

I love it and want more of it, but so far it seems different from the hopeful message that first one had

When I think about it, it kinda makes sense. Steven's becoming so powerful (he is half diamond after all, and the other diamonds are no longer threats to him), that the only real enemy he could have left is himself.

[Gyrre]

No spoilers here, but good twist resulting in a situation that gets resolved a bit too quickly for my liking, but still good overall if a bit cliché.
