New opening shown at NYCCC

Trust no one not even yourself.

As for title songs go this new one is missing the point. The old one, while not one of my favorites, was catchy and melodic throughout. The new one loses the catchyness especially in the first few seconds with the very slow barber-shop style beginning and the pair of melodic interruptions. When it started to gain some traction towards the end the melody stops abruptly before it had any chance to enter the brain.

The Rubys are the Mayor's new bodyguards.

Hah, that's awesome.

It's so beautiful tho. And like.... So many questions and curiosity. Like...
who the heck those lapises are
Who the heck is fused with Aquamarine
The heck is up with White diamond
What is the Steven cactus

I can't wait!

I really hope they go more into Lapis's background and other Gem stuff nstead of throwing out more new characters and expecting us to care about them.

Rose killed those Lapise's dogs 6000 years ago, so they're out for revenge.
Aquamarine is fused with Gem that Rose cut in line in front of 6500 years ago, she's out for revenge.
That's Pink's old Pearl that you know, Rose abandoned. So she's out for revenge.
Rose actually destroyed the cactus home planet, and it's out for revenge.

There was a bit of a leaked promo, with a new quartz soldier and so much Drama. It also revealed who Aquamarine is fused with, Eyeball Ruby

Steven Universe Future Starts in The Near Future (Tonight)

These are some great episodes.


Dad, you wanna stay for dinner?

NOPE!

Holy shit that third one was an emotional rollercoaster

And in the most awesome Utena reference yet...

Big Spoiler.

Pretty mellow compared to the fourth episode.

Rose Buds hit closer to home for me. Stevens relationship with his mother has been the arc the series revolves around and while it was good to give Pearl a chance to confront the fact that PD was both Abused and Abuser, it was something well covered before then in Stevens emotional journey.

As well, having thought you escaped your emotional baggage only to find it showing up on your doorstep and being unable to stop it from hurting other people hits a lot closer to home for me.

Episodes were crazy.

My DVR didn't record them cuz att didn't show them as airing. So I had to be sneaky watching reaction vids.

Episodes were still crazy

I wish Steven had been given more time to get to know the Rose Quartzes without being paralyzed by their mutual baggage, but the episode ended basically as soon as they reconciled. Pearl being able to connect with Volleyball and support her was the element that left the biggest impact on me in episode 4, and I think episode 3 could have benefited from a little bit of that at the very end.

They're both good episodes, though.

anyway the best bit is

"OH NO WE FORGOT ONION!"

"...eh, he's fine"

I will say having started rewatching the series as part of my typical nostalgia tour after a new season I strongly suggest comparing Steven Universe Future: 4 to Steven Universe 16: Steven the Swordfighter

Steven the Sword fighter (my favorite episode of SU) is about disassociating the negative traits and PTSD inducing outbursts of a caregiver from their positive contributions. This is further covered in regards to Pearl in SU 28: Space Race and SU 46: Rose Scabbard, but I always felt that Steven the Sword fighter covered it most concisely.

Steven Universe Future: 4 is about reconciling these negative and positive associations of a caregiver into a more complete whole idea of a person, and may ultimately be the theme of Steven Universe Future.

Considering how the first episode went down, I can see that

Well that was one of the best stand alone episodes in a while

Maybe just a little torture?

Lapis song is sweet
Freckles was cute

Pearl being over her shape shifting aversion was so amazing. Garnet flipping out the same way she did when Steven and Connie first fused, was refreshing... So many Steven's, Sapphire Steven was my favorite,

I'm really confused if Episode 10 is the end of the run or not because boy if it is "I think I've said enough." is one hell of a way to leave things off

also we haven't seen Connie at all and there are two implied antagonists in the opening that I'm pretty sure we haven't actually dealt with so like there has to be a little bit more left right

There's more left, this is likely a twelve episode order, meaning twenty four eleven minute episodes, we've seen twelve, and now we're going into hiatus.

Please someone get Steven some therapy for goodness sake!

His trauma is his personality.

Poor Steven is the Chief O'Brien of his own show.

All I'm hearing is that Chief O'Brien deserved his own show

So, new episodes start today.

And it's been confirmed that the episodes on March 27 will be the end.

They were cute episodes, Steven is starting to recover!

Oof, Steven immediately jumping into traumatic experiences while trying to relate to other folks everyday grievances hit way too close to home

Alright, this one snuck past me. This is what I get for not keeping up on these kind of things. Then again, I assumed after the defeat of the Diamonds the show was just over. I wonder what new adventures await.

Episdoe - 01 - Little Homeschool

Spoilers for the final episode titles:

He's just turning into a monster, just like very teenager. Its part of growing up!

Good episodes good song

"There was never a timeline where you didn't propose."

That's kind of sweet.

These last four episodes are going to be an emotional roller coaster. That 2nd episode tonight was intense.

Forget the Jasper 'but how would've Piccolo and Gohan really ended?' episode - Mr. Universe 'you're going to fuck up as a parent, and even if you admit it, its unforgivable' was a punch to the gut. A lot of that looked boarded directly by Sugar.
