Really that's disgusting man, why does su insist on being disgusting

Also, it was subtle when cheese sandwich was weird al

The moment SU told the audience that Garnet was a fusion was when she opened the door to her room by activating the blue and red gems on the door with both her hands.
This was a scene in the background for like five seconds, I think.

The episode where Garnet's third eye is revealed is the episode directly after where we learn about fusion.

That's literally it.

There's another subtle moment of foreshadowing in that episode.
Cookie Cats origins are practically identical to the crystal gems, they're refugees from an interstellar war who left their family (species) behind
then in the episode future vision, he imagines cookie cat being evil and coming down in a space ship to shoot him with a laser
a few episodes later evil gems come down in a space ship to shoot him with a laser

In Connie's first two appearances she's jealous of how exiting Steven's life is compared to hers, and it seems like she doesn't really seem relate to him on a human level. But in an Indirect kiss after listening to his story she starts to think of him as a real person, and says that she would still like him even if he didn't have magic powers.
and intimidate afterwards she can see clearly for the first time in her life
and she no longer sees him though rose-tinted glasses

If this is what you guys consider "subtle" no wonder you think SU is well-written.

>when you spell it out with all implications and no context, as opposed to an ongoing motive or subplot running in parallel to the plot, then it's just glaringly obvious.

No shit, Sherlock!

Garnet being a fusion, and the exact implications of her being a fusion, are laid out all over the place up until The Return.

Her reaction to Steven and Connie fusing was part of what made it feel as intimate as it did, since before then Fusion was just battle magic bullshit. Garnet is the first character to imply that it means something more.

If you don't think that its a good example then perhaps you could provide us with a better example of subtlety in cartoons anon.
