i have defended steven universe a lot here, particularly from some unfair and nonsensical "criticism", but it's time to talk about some of the things that i DIDN'T like about steven universe.
that episode where amethyst shapeshifts into rose to terrorize greg. what the fuck was that? and the fact that they don't address it afterwards makes it even worse. don't write in incredibly dark stuff, if you're just gonna brush it under the rug like “don't worry kids, greg and amethyst just had a little fight, that's all”.
that time when sadie got mad at lars after she stranded him on an island on purpose so that she could spend time with him. i swear, this show had the wildest subplots and they brush past it like it's nothing. at least lars and sadie don't get together in the end, it's honestly better that way.
lapis. just.. lapis.
peridot's character progression. don't get me wrong, her redemption arc was amazing, probably the best in this show. but after that, she's just reduced to goofy sidekick?? this is especially insulting when peridot is an actually skilled and useful member of the crystal gems - she's good with tech, she knows a lot about the homeworld - and they still reduce her to the comic relief.
speaking of, GIVE. PERIDOT. HER. LIMB ENHANCERS. BACK. those were her mobility aid, she needed them to function like a regular peridot! she clearly had a lot of difficulty moving around and doing things without her limb enhancers, but clearly the message here was “you're perfect as you are”. this is like a different version of the glow-up trope in every teen movie, where the girl's glasses is removed so that she can be blind but confident. /s
also speaking of, amethyst encouraging peridot to talk shit about everyone else but getting offended when peridot insulted her was incredibly hypocritical, and it's ridiculous that peridot had to apologize for it.
the diamonds' redemption, of course, i don't think i need to explain why i dislike it. yes, it's good that steven didn't forgive them but this issue goes beyond steven. the diamonds hurt everyone, but they're still rulers of the homeworld. yes, they changed but they could easily go back to being dictators any time they wished. especially since they never got punished for any of their actions. sure, you don't need to kill them off but at least imprison them or take away their powers or something???
spinel being adopted by the diamonds. you're telling me the creators wrote a sympathetic and relatable villain who has abandonment issues and trauma, only to hand her over to The Abusers™ because she reminded them of their victim? yikes.
so yeah. steven universe has a special place in my heart because it's the first queer show i ever watched, and also the first animated series with such a deep and interesting storyline. but i'm still not one to glorify everything about it because i'm well aware that it had its fair share of problematic stuff too.
#steven universe#the only thing I don’t 100% agree with are the limb enhancers#I definitely see merit in this take of course#to me the limb enhancers represented homeworld itself#and peridot willingly leaving that part of her life behind her#otherwise if they were that important to her functionality…#I would think she’d be way more insistent in getting them back#or fashioning new ones#which she kinda did the latter or as bare minimum as you can make it#and abandoned it in one episode#maybe seeing the limb enhancers forced on amethyst in homeworld contributed to me seeing them in a less charitable light#but yeah fuck lapis#the hypocrisy with amethyst#the REALLY bad pearl/garnet stuff#peridot’s reduced role leading me to make an entire novel-length fanfic making a u-turn on that#sadie/lars thankfully never becoming canon#and ESPECIALLY fuck the diamonds#poor spinel…

🙋 I propose that Audrey has been covering for him, actually. It was said in Style Queen that she's the one who discovered Gabriel, after all. Went down like this:
• Gabe made Andre one (1) good outfit for his date w/ Audrey, as mentioned in Revolution.
• Audrey pounced on him as her new star designer, only to realize that Gabriel is a talentless hack and his outfit for Andre was actually a fluke.
• Admitting that she was wrong about Gabriel will reflect REALLY poorly on Audrey! She'll go down with him! So while he runs around doing whatever he wants Audrey is putting her time and effort into making him appear like an actual fashion genius, which Gabriel fully believes himself to be because he's an arrogant narcissistic idiot. Nathalie knows the truth but never told him.
^ Behold. The Conspiracy.

As a treat for the 6th Anniversary of Scarlet Lady, I finally drew up that little fighting montage that I talked about way back in the Finale. You know, the one that goes between this page and this page? Enjoy!
Cute he thought he'd get anywhere.
And for our live commentator: Fenice!
(Nathaniel is still bitter about Hawkmoth stealing his OC for his akumasona.)
Just nip THAT little problem in the bud.
Hey, at least you finally got hit somewhere other than your face! 😗
When the nice kids choose violence, you're screwed.
