NOOOOOO I WANTED SMOOCHES
Seriously, though, that was REALLY good. I was a little worried when I saw Connie that we’d have some real relationship drama and maybe end on a sour note, but, no, they’re fine–Steven just needed a little push and she was right there to catch him.
No kidding, the Stevonnie segment is one of my favorite sequences in the entire show. I just went and rewatched it a couple times. That was SO good. I’d go so far as to say it was perfect–a perfect moment showcasing Steven and Connie’s relationship, with body language perfectly communicating how Stevonnie truly feels about themselves and Steven and Connie about each other. That self-hug as they skate, eyes closed, just letting their momentum pull them onwards…man, that was perfect. I know I want smooches as an overt sign of their love for one another, but all you really need is…this.
That alone would elevate this episode pretty high, but the rest of it was good too! The Bismuth/Pearl plotline was very sweet, and Bismuth bucking up Steven was a great moment and a perfect encapsulation of the character.
I loved this episode wholeheartedly. As such, Bismuth Casual comes in at my new #2 for Season 6, between Volleyball and Snow Day, and my new #8 for the series, between The Kindergarten Kid and Last One Out of Beach City. We’ve had a pretty great showing from Future so far, and I hope it continues at this pace.
That’s all the Steven Universe that’s aired thus far, with two more episodes airing this week as far as I’m aware. Therefore, we’re going to do another episode of She-Ra in between Steven Universe episodes; we’ll be doing that Friday and Monday, and then hopefully doing the last four episodes of Steven Universe Future all in a row.
Man. I guess it’s almost over again.
That’s going to be rough.
But we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Up next streamwise is going to be more Fire Emblem, either tonight or tomorrow–I’m still deciding if I want to do some tonight. You can check that out live at my Twitch channel, or click here for the full playlist of Fire Emblem streams I’ve done. See you for whatever you tune in next for!
