Why have people been hating on fat protagonist recently? We've

Maybe it's because he is overweight for no reason other than just being overweight. Chowder being over weight contributed to his personality; he loved to eat food, and tired easily.
I guess SU and Clarence depicting them as fat upsets people because they are
trying to make it seem like a norm. Personally, Get /fit/ you lazy fat fucks.

They just want something to whine about because they think globalism is being run by disaffected millennials, mostly because the right is kind of retarded and buying wholesale into identity politics.
Protip: The majority of the power isn't in the hands of some gaptoothed lesbian in a dingy writer's room.

>>84833875
Chowder's fatness was treated as a character flaw and used for jokes at his expense.

>>84834049
Except that it's been shown repeatedly that he has a shit diet, snacks frequently, and until the show began presumably lived a rather sedentary lifestyle.

>>84834049
Steven loves to eat, and he doesn't get tired because he's a magical girl.
Being uncomfortable and hungry 24/7 as a skelly is probably the healthiest and most ethical option instead of being muscly OR fat.

>>84834243
And yet he is still overweight
>inb4 muh genes

>>84834284
>tumblrfags believe this
Steven has been shown to have immense strength, you'd think we would also see some definition, he isn't exactly an inactive kid.

>>84834310
No shit, exercise mitigates a terrible diet but isn't a hard counter for it.

At this point it's mostly on the storyboarder. Some draw him as thick but not fat.

>>84833875
>Chowder being over weight contributed to his personality; he loved to eat food
that describes Steven too

>>84834284
>Steven loves to eat
Comparing Steven's diet to Chowder's is just impossible. Have you never seen Chowder? The kid eats stockpiles of food.

>>84834310
So, do you think that fat can get rid of that easily. And no I'm not fat but I know how that is.
Also, yes "Muh genes". Rose was chubby too and she was a magical warrior.

>>84834426
He's a half alien you DOUBLE NIGGER, thinking our biological rules may not apply to him means I'm a sperg about the sci in sci fi, not a tumblr user.
We aren't shown full representation in a cartoon, we're given a concept- who knows if "fat" gems are jiggly lard-tubs, maybe they're just dense with a low center of gravity for defensive purposes during battle.

>>84834430
Steven doesn't eat THAT much, I've seen the show he has favorite foods but that isn't enough to make him obese. Exercise is easily capable of burning off that weight, Steven isn't one of those kids that just sits on vidya all day.

>>84834612
>>84834520
It's been shown that his mental state affects his growth due to his shapeshifting abilities.

>>84834613
I think he has been drawn as less of a fat shit, as the episodes have stopped focusing on his tubby lust for cookie cats and donuts.

Looks to me like he's losing weight.

People just hate fat people even more now than they did before.

>>84834712
What kind of fee-fees make Steven so doughy?

>>84834612
>Steven is a gem
Steven is a half-gem, and he still needs to consume food to survive. This doesn't prove that the food he consumes causes a lower metabolic rate. If anything being half-time should HELP him. The gems don't need food, as it doesn't help or hurt them. The don't produce lipids to be stored, and they don't gain weight that way. Steven doesn't even eat that much, he doesn't eat like a fatfuck.

>>84833875
Low hanging fruit.

>>84834740
Why the fuck is OP bitching then?

>>84834787
That's actually strongfat, the boy can probably lift two or three times what you can.

>>84834927
Comparing Steven's strength to a humans isn't fair; he is half-gem.

>>84834789
Rose was built like a VW bus, maybe that's how he's gonna be shaped regardless of lipid storage.
We haven't seen an MRI, we don't know what's actually in a Steven Universe.

>>84835060
And yet he loses weight, also gems forms are what they want it to be.

>>84834049
I mean Clarence as fat isn't really surprising, or out of the norm.

I was a pretty fat kid.

>>84834787
He wants to feel soft and cuddly due to unresolved issues involving his mother, his three non-related maternal figures, the attention he gets from Sadie, Jenny, and Kiki, and his relationship with Connie.

>>84833875
Chowder is actually lovable compared to Steven, and Clarence acts like a normal child. Steven is complete garbage I wish he never existed and this show as about the misadventures of the crystal gems instead.

>>84834049
Steven is a wide kid. If you noticed he's become less fat recently but is still a bit round. Look at Greg, even at his fittest he was always a burly guy. I like Steven being strong actually. His shape is appropiate for real strongmen (who are wide unlike those wasp waist muscle bodybuilders).

Steven has lost fat but he'll never be slim. He has a wide burly physique.

Uh no? You do realize Steven's design varies episode to episode right? Sometimes even in the SAME episode.

He still looks way thiner in that pic compared to pretty much the entirety of season 1. Steven is noticeably less chubby.

Chowder was actually likeable.

Dint a new episode come out today? Where is sug? Where is the mega?

>>84835804
He's consistently thinier now. Ni design in season 3 si far comes close to how fat and loose he looked.in season 1. He's definetely fitter now.

>>84836082
No sug in the catalog,
new ep comes out later this evening, wait one hour after airing for a mega.

>>84836180
I think you mean "more consistent" as now Steven isn't drawn fat nor thin as he once was.

>>84836233
More or less, yeah. Seems they finally found their middle ground design wise. But its notorious that even at his current fattest he isn't as fat as before. Probably has something to do with increasing activity as a crystal gem. Or his self image if that's what determines his appearance.

>>84834049
>Maybe it's because he is overweight for no reason other than just being overweight.

Chowder's fat was played for laughs
Clarence everyone looks like a freak so who will pick on the fat kid?

Steven, he's suppose to be a hero, being unhealthy is not a trait a hero shouldn't, no, can have
but really its not just that, its also that he's a candy ass, he's a subversion of your average male hero
he never grows, he doesn't earn his abilities (rather he inherits them), he faces battles with feminine approaches rather than masculine ones, and will always have to face battles the same way he's been doing since the beginning

>>84841120
>suppose to be
>a hero shouldn't, no, can have
Stop writing like anime characters speak and go over some basic English.
Fucking cringeworthy.

>>84841253
a hero who fights monsters can't be unhealthy
to face such challenges requires a person to be strong physically

>>84841340
He's vaguely hobbled but so is ANY female that fights, an older person, etc.

It's like the difference between a black friend who's into the same shit as you but can handle jokes about cops and rap and slavery, and that black chick you know who is way too I to social media activism and will call every white guy she sees a cracker and make everyone around her super uncomfortable.

It's all about bantzability. Bantzability is likeability.

>>84841393
Not him.
Fighting monsters is physical, strenuous activity that burns calories.
Doing so on any sort of regular basis will cause you to become fit. Unless you fight monsters with your giant robot car.

Steven should at the very least be bullied for his obesity, showing that it isn't ok

>>84841924
>Bantzability is likeability.

Yo, that's practically my motto, dawg.

Obesity is a negative message to send. It's selfish for a cartoonist to do it.

>>84844252
This, if Steven has a high fat diet he could be strong but still look like a fatass. Having visible muscle is equal parts lifting, and low body fat percentage.

>>84844323
Low body fat would make his muscles more defined but a fat lifter still has a more noticeable, intimidating shape compared to your average couch potato.

No, Drop Beat Dad is just the most obvious time it's commented upon. You see it in a few other episodes, think he started getting stronger shortly after "Coach Steven", about the time he started living healthier.

I honestly don't get it, is this some kind of maymay I'm unaware of? I don't give much of a shit about Sugar (don't mind the show), but I just went through a huge portion of her twatter and read some interviews and, well...

Can anyone point me to one instance of this woman actually being SJW in the slightest? Here I was, all ready to hate her and shit, what a fucking letdown.
