SHE'S BACK!?!?!

Steven Universe s3 eps13&14

Comments

The desperation in Centi to just get back to her crew, where she last felt safe- it always breaks my little heart ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Jamie McMahon

At this point you should be thinking Steven can connect to others due to some powers coming from rose quarts. Kind of in line with his healing powers he can just connect with people. Itโ€™s not Lapis tho

Caitlin

I think she's misunderstanding a little bit that when Steven connected with Lapis that one time it was all Steven's doing. Lapis doesn't have powers like that.

Reaper Scythe

I am fairly sure that Pearl doesn't let Steven try to 'heal' the plate simply because she doesn't want him touching sharp shards that he can cut himself on.

i dont consider a vast majority of s1 to be filler, its literally world building. People kind of throw around the word filler too much to mean any episode that doesnt have action or doesnt explicitly reveal some type of lore, which isnt true

End of Cheesevangelion Neon Cheddarsis ๐Ÿง€

AH I KEEP FORGETTING ENTER IS 'POST' 26:24 She doesn't see the difficulty in it lol 26:32 The hair (and gem shape) is different, but a lot of reactors think this way it looks like 27:41 People have said at this point she's crying out the healing spit, and that's what starts the reversion 27:40 Also seen during Lapis' flashback/explanation.

Jasmine

21:26 Ah...hair, but not the body shape nor size. 23:21 for me it's more like "...ehhh" 25:45 Amethyst said they don't have gems (Garnet said that means there's a mother) - so more like smth they can do.

Jasmine

i get it, the first season especially is full of filler cause its double the length of every other season, but later on these sorts of filler episodes are nicer, you appreciate them a lot more when they are put between episodes with plenty of stuff going on lol

Delta

There is only one filler episode in the entirety of Steven Universe and every other episode reveals something feeply about the characters or plot whether obvious or subtle

SU is a massive love letter to Japanese game/anime/manga culture c:

Rewatching the show really makes me appreciate the filler episodes. SU just has this wonderful ambience and vibes to it that really gets to shine in these episodes! But back when the show aired, I was extremely frustrated with them as well lol. Not because I found the episodes bad, but because we'd wait literal years (almost), only to be met with more filler episodes, when we were so desperate for answers :') I especially hated them when they were snuck in the middle of arcs. Being a SU fan was really hard due to the insane hiatuses, and the fillers only contributed to that lol- But on the other hand, all the waiting kinda helped to build up the amazing community, due to all the theories and fan content that had the time to spring up between :p

Yep, there's a ton of references to anime/manga throughout the series but this episode and the 2 before it (beach city drift & restaurant wars) were absolutely full of them. Even the title of this episode was a direct nod to anime (there's a classic called Kiki's Delivery Service). A little bit of a tangent but some of these references in the series actually get pretty dark like the landscape of the Kindergarten and Amethyst saying her hole in the wall was perfectly her size - borrowed imagery/concepts from Junji Ito's horror manga short story, "The Enigma of Amigara Fault".

TXOT

Thats acually... A very good persective. Moreover think of it like how Queeny (Kinger's wife) still ,,remained human" even after abstracting - for a short period at least. Same with corruption they still ,,aware" of their surrounding they just are not themselfs.

LikeCat

Yes building characters is good only reason Iโ€™m ok with filler but filler can get annoying lol

Pumpkin

there really isn't that much filler lol and why wouldnt you wanna build your characters?? thats a good thing.....?

peachy af

Okay, so, (somewhat) cursed memory time, I remember when Kiki's Pizza Delivery Service first premiered, and the frame of Steven looking at the glass of OJ right after he slurps up the overflow became a bit of a meme where people were saying he looks like Peter Griffin from Family Guy... and, I mean, they weren't wrong...

SweetCandle

I fear that I'm the only one whose more excited for Greg the babysitter than alone at sea

Josh

The rest of this season is steven universe at its peak imo

xattygt

I love Steven universe but the amount of filler is so annoying itโ€™s good for character building but still. Thereโ€™s less in later seasons at least

Pumpkin

Also in the Pyramid Temple in Serious Steven, which I think is where Mosco first noticed it and is referring to.

Simon Davis

or maybe one 3 of them caused it and 1 wasn't involved for some reason

Phoenix Mackenzie

yeah, i wish it was paced a little better, it seems like the first half of each season is just...townie filler. But it's good world building I suppose. Glad to be moving back into plot stuff soon though.

potato potato also another potato

it sure is!

potato potato also another potato

certainly a plausible theory, we'll see if it plays out

potato potato also another potato

Mosco was right when she mentioned a ship, there were 3, not 4, in Jasper's ship during jailbreak.

That scene at the end of the cheese dream (at 15:04) is a reference to the (in)famous final scene of Neon Genesis Evangelion (a.k.a. "the 'Kimochi warui' scene"). They just replaced the crucified Eva units with pizza slices.

ArcticBanana

I honestly haven't watched this before but I would like to theorise the moon base had four diamonds the drawing had three. Did a diamond get killed? We know blue diamond was on earth due to the Ruby/sapphire origin episode and Rose attacked. Did blue diamond get killed by the rebellion. Assuming diamonds are proportionally rare then maybe there are only the four in existence. Where they friends, colleagues or family? The light/song thing centi described sounds like a WMD to me that shattered the rebellions minds on possibly a global scale. If the rebellion killed blue on earth then maybe the hatred yellow seems to have for the planet is more relatable like destroying a house your friend/sister/daughter was killed in.

A C PARNELL

Yep! Love how many references they put in, it's almost like a where's steven (waldo) game :)

Next up: Alone at sea

PinkPonytail _Girl

Oh my god wait...was that..the Kiki episode at the beach...was that a subtle Evangelion reference? XD

D3m0n

yeah early season 3 was more about the humans BUT i'm not complaining. we get to know more of beach city and especially Kikki because we knew very little about her up to this point.

needlington

Man, the Kiki episode is so good, especially for a townie ep. I definitely feel Mosco wanting to get back to the gems tho lmao. Also it's kinda funny now that I've been through therapy how many eps have genuinely good advice!

Alp

sometimes i go out and get myself a Goodfella's Buffalo Chicken pizza and it smells like fu*king heaven

John Bossert

Unfortunately this kiki episode and an onion episode later on are the only ones in the series i skip on rewatches ๐Ÿ˜ญ

peachy af

at 3:31 that comment doesnt mean what you think it means lol, not Dirty as in "naughty/sexual" dirty as in "Sick, nasty, beats!" usually involving lots of bass lol

KittyPryde21

So excited for the next eps ๐Ÿ˜„

Jx

Just think of gem corruption like abstraction from the amazing digital circus.
