I just watched all the episodes of Steven Universe and while I enjoyed the ride, I don't think I could fully comprehend it.
Is this a slice of life show? An action show? A musical? A comedy? A drama?
Sometimes it feels like the show doesn't know what it wants to be.
>>
It's got a fairly consistent tone that doesn't fit neatly into existing genres.

I'd call it magical slice-of-life.
>>
It's in its own genre, the faggy action show. It's an action show but with musical numbers and melodrama and slice-of-life elements and "cutesy" shit.
>>

Its called an adventure

I wouldn't say it's action at all. Not with the animation style it has, at least.
>>
>>81165020
It's just a show. Do you need to fit a genre to enjoy it?

It's a coming of age slice of life with magical action that runs off drama and features musicals.

Everything bad from Adventure Time became a show.
Thanks Rebecca Sugar.

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder but I just can't get the same hype anymore.
Like Homestuck, I just want this shit to actually continue.
>>
>>81166172
Tbqh adventure time took a serious dip in quality and consistency after Sugar left.
I can understand not liking or even hating steven universe but Sugar was one of the reasons the original few seasons of adventure time were great.
>>81165020
Its a genre bending show but it doesnt really have a problem with consistency to a large degree. Its a slice of life with aliens and music. Thats pretty consistent throughout the show
>>
Is there a chance that this show will last many years and we will see Steven grow up and become a skilled healer and become part of a much larger group of crystal gems against whatever cosmic menace?

Fuck I already pictured all of that in my mind.It just feels like it has a lot of potential.

It's never coming back on the air.

I love the developement the characters did in my mind.
After a few episodes, I got what the characters were "about", but as it continued, I realized there was much more to "get", and actual backgrounds instead of just stereotypes.
Far too often, stories establish strong characters and then don't do anything with them, or make the backstory so contrived that it doesn't become a coherent narrative.
SU works both as strong first impression, as well as depth behind it, which I really appreciate.
>>
Well, actually Steven Universe is like a comedy-drama about the differences in the modern culture. Have a artistic an melodic degree, really important to make more comfortable the message. Is not about feminism (the gems doesnt have one) or homosexuality. It is about the heroes come in all sizes and forms, and them can be anyone.
>>
>>81165020
>Sometimes it feels like the show doesn't know what it wants to be.
just like its fanbase
>>
>>81168546
Just because it has things doesn't mean it's ABOUT things.
I wish people would stop seeing agendas in everything. Life isn't about agendas.
SU has a lovely cast of different characters, with their unique emotions, pasts and issues.
That doesn't mean it's about anything.

Having seen every episode, this about sums it up in as short a way as possible
>>
I love how this is a board on cartoons yet everyone just shits on SU

Do we need our own containment board just like the other autistic fandom everyone loves?
>>
>>81170197
Nobody shits on SU.
It's just a spectrum between loving it, and clawing your own eyes out over the hiatus.

I think it's the only show I've ever watched where a kid got a girlfriend early on, and has had a stable relationship since then.

>Has literal rock lesbians
>Not faggy

What are you some kind of homophobe?
>>
>>81170197
The last thing 4chan needs is another containment board.
We gave the bronies power over us by acknowledging they need special treatment for everyone's autism.
Besides, /trash/ is serviceable enough as is.
>>
>>81170351
my point is you can like all the things it has without being gay, you cheeky cunt.
>>
>>81170318
Best dad too
I don't really know any other cartoon that had a song about loving your dad and a father loving his child

>my point is you can like all the things it has without being gay, you cheeky cunt.

But you can like something faggy without being gay yourself.

Unfortunately he's another retarded "fat guy hot wife" type, but at least he loves his son unlike other cartoon dad's

Slice-of-life magical girl anime.

>>81168546
>gems don't have genders
When the creators go out of their way to make all of the gems look like human women and go so far as to call the leaders "matriarchs", I think its safe to say that they've already gendered them regardless of the handful of twitter posts that say they don't have genders.
They know what they're doing.

it's a realistic down to earth show that's swarming with magic robots

why is everybody in this cartoon either fat or gay?

Tumblr pandering

Same reason all the males are cucks or fuckbois.
>>
so how do gems get corrupted exactly? I thought it was them regenerating while in an unhealthy mindset but we see gems get get corrupted while embedded too, which kind of implies corruption is more of a gem mental illness. The problem is most gem monsters seem animalistic rather than mentally ill
>>
>>81179335
Tumblr just holds onto the show because lesbian rocks
>>
>>81179428
We don't know.
>>
>>81179470
No shit. It's called "speculation"
>>
>>81179428
there are zero hints to what could cause corruption, given they dropped the whole plot of gem corruption to focus on homeworld shit

my guess? a gem weapon rose had somehow acquired that causes the process to begin in gems. would explain why homeworld never reattempted colonizing earth, as the weapon could just make them stupid animals
>>
>>81179942
doesn't one of the upcoming episodes have monster in its name?
>>
>>81179335
So what horrible shit did he draw?
>>
>>81180067
i dont know. what i meant was theyve sidelined it. there was that one episode in season 2 called reformed. clearly not the focus of the general story
