Worst? No. Most boring given the show he's in? Yes. How the fuck is he not spouting out question after question and demanding the Gems answer him after the whole Diamond Zoo bullshit. At least before you could say he didn't want to know or he didn't want to bother the gems, but for fuck's sake, he's even admitting to a Rose hologram how frustrated he is and is coming to terms that he needs to face this shit. Start demanding some answers, Steven. Ask mother fucking Peridot to tell you all about Homeworld, she'll do it and not hide any secrets him Steven. She'd probably love to talk about it.

I think he was. For a while he was less of a wuss, and was willing to fight back against invaders instead of crying and trying to hug them. He also fought with the Crystal Gems when they tried to stop him from freeing Lapis.
>>

Mabel is funny though.
>>
>>90758954
>How the fuck is he not spouting out question after question and demanding the Gems answer him after the whole Diamond Zoo bullshit.

That's what exactly what he was doing BEFORE the Diamond Zoo bullshit. And his search for answers led to his dad getting kidnapped and everyone almost dying.

It's likely that Steven feels guilty and is avoiding asking questions for a while because anytime he does, it leads to disaster.

But it's gonna happen again sooner or later.
>>
>>90760370
>And his search for answers led to his dad getting kidnapped and everyone almost dying.

Again, why not just ask Peridot who has intense knowledge of the history of Homeworld + knows about current Homeworld? The Gems are giving him round about answers, but they're not the only Gems on the planet. He might not want to bother Lapis, but Peridot is totally game to answer Steven the best of her ability. She fucking loves sharing her knowledge.
>>
To me, the truly defining moment for the character was in the test episode, were it shows that Steven's concept of caring is extremely shallow and inoffensive, essentially making him for lack of better term, a patsy and a huge doormat for everyone in the end, despite any bravado or actual strength he displays.
If he truly cared about the Crystal Gems, he would have called out their bullshit right there. "Lets do what makes everyone happy" isn't a leader thing. A leader takes control of the situation he's in.
>>
>>90760504
A leader knows when morale of the team needs to be boosted. He set aside his own petty problems to give the Gems a confidence boost to help them in the long run.
>>
>>90760542
Morality is meaningless without honest discourse. The Gems are supposed to be Steven's family, he should be insulted that the Gems don't think he can't handle anything.
Building bonds on lies just falls apart sooner or later.
>>
>>90758716
Dipper is the protag. If she was, she'd beat out SU for worst though.
>>
>>90761012
Maybe we'll find out in 40 episodes when they decide to get the plot going again.
>>
>>90758683
So the main problem that everyone here seems to have about Steven is he's not fighting bad guys and you guys really should realize how weird of a criticism that is. The shows not about beating up bad guys. It's about making friends with angry people. It uses the trappings of 90s Shonen and Shojo where most obstacles are defeated with a combination murder punching and friendship lasers but instead of murder punching and friendship lasers we just get...friendship. Of everything. It's probably gonna get darker for a bit cause we're in the Empire Strikes Back phase but we're seriously never gonna get Mega-Steven punching Ruby's heads off and Steven will always be overtly emotional because in this show that is a strength and though it is a burden it's not something Steven will "get over" so he can poof rando background baddies while you get pumped up for the main fight.

tldr; This show ain't for you nigga

This character, I think, is inexcusably horrible. So much so that he made a show with lots of cute characters and great voice actors laughably insufficient, just through his worthlessness as a protagonist.

Steven, at the very least, tries not to ruin everything all the time, and has some decent skills to help his friends.
>>
>>90761408
I guess steven's problem as a character is the same problem that every character in SU has: it depends entirely on the boarder and if the plot requires them to be brain dead
>>
>>90761472
Well that's the other thing I think SU has tricked everyone into believing. It's just a Slice of Life comedy show that sometimes has "lore" episodes. I mean fucking Garnet played Beat Meat for like a week or so straight.

It's probably a combination of having a bunch of cooks in the kitchen but characters vary in legitimately every way they can from episode to episode, character models to character motives. It's kind of like a looney tunes cartoon where everyone cries a lot. I think they should either choose to be this big LORE series like ATLA or be a sorta Japanese SoL show like that Dragon Maid show.

Any response or am I ranting to myself now?
>>
>>90758683
yes, because he is barely a protagonist
most of the show he just hangs back and lets the gems do the work, every once in a while he will shield them from a lazer.
there are 2 types of episodes.
episodes where a problem occurs (usually caused by steven touching some ancient technology) and the gems have to fix it
or episodes where steven fucks around in beach city doing boring shit, the gems usually aren't even in the episode.

why even have steven as a character? why not make the show about 3 gems saving earth from the alien invaders? steven always feels tacked on in every gem centric episode.
>>
>>90761560
>Well that's the other thing I think SU has tricked everyone into believing.

What the fuck are you talking about? Tricked? Are you saying they were only pretending to be retarded?

As for the rest, yeah, i agree, if i had to define SU in one word it would be "Inconsistent"

First what do you mean by retarded? Second I mean they made everyone think they were a show that they ended up not being.
>>
>>90761744
It was a convination of SoL and monster of the week for its first season, then at the end it had a story aparently, and then they forget they had a story every few episodes, its just a mismanaged show, the tricked part would be real if they had the firsts 2 or 3 episodes being about magical boy adventure and the rest of the 200 episodes being about hardcore fucking lesvian porn, that would be a twist

Also by retarded i meant so express "they don't have a clue about what they're doing and clearly its not intentional"
>>
>>90762219
Oh well yea I agree with you. Badly managed show and nobody seems to have a clue what they're building too. Remind me of the Threeboot Legion comic where one guy asked all the different Legion members what the Legion means and all of them have crazy different ideas about it.

I think this show has merit tho. I'm fucking gay as fuck tho so it might just be me being like "fuck if this show was around when I was 8 I wouldn't have thought I was the devil".

The power of friendship is a good power to have, but you can't just replace action and ass-kickery with it and hope it would work.

Because it wouldn't. Not for a protagonist, if you care about keeping your protagonist likeable.

>>90758683
No, I'd say he is one of the best!
He is loveable
He likes everyone but smart about it.
He isn't totally stupid
He is actually learning and getting more mature as the series goes.
Sure, he still makes stupid mistakes sometimes, but this is the boy, who never went to school! Also, he is 14 years old, but he's been stuck in the body of like 9 y/o, because before Connie he never really contacted with a child of his age. Everyone in beach city are either older or younger than him.
>>
>>90761713
>>90762219
Do you even know what "pacing" is?
The show is actually pretty consistent
After a bunch if WHAM-episodes you are supposed to let the audience to calm down
After heavy episodes there should be light episodes
After lore or story episodes, there should be slice or character development episodes.
If the show is full on action-story-lore-drama it would just get stale!
But slice of life episodes just make us care more for characters when something actually happens to them.

Probably not, but he is honestly a terrible character.
Simply put, he isn't a realistic child character, fucker is basically baby Jesus who is always nice and right, cries at the drop of a fucking hat, and has almost no genuine negative quirks. If he had more moments where he gets angry, or maybe a bit more selfish, he'd be more rounded out.
Also, every mystery in the show stems from Steven not asking questions any normal human being would ask first.

Not exactly...

They became an anthropomorphization of a particular interaction between two Tumblr users...

...

So arguably something worse...

He's easily more mature than Marco and Star though.

And Dipper is like... dude doesn't even sound like a kid.

Do it. I vaguely remember the comment, but not the context.

Wander Over Yonder completely disproves this though. Doesn't mean that SU pulls this off as well, just that likable pacifist protagonists are in fact doable.

why did they make best girl of OITNB be the VA of this fan-fiction tier turd

Anything listed above is better than Allen Gregory.
>>
>>90776338
>Doesn't mean that SU pulls this off as well
He does, it's just more acceptable on this board to praise Wander than to praise Steven.

I mean, to be real.
>>
>>90767735
It's true.
During the Austrian-Prussian war they managed to come back with an Italian "friend".
>>
>>90776382
I'd argue he doesn't because he's completely inconsistent about it. Wander is a pacifist, but he's a pacifist to a fault. His ideals are as much of a character flaw as it is a strength. Steven however, is all over the place. He's too inconsistent as a character to pull it off as effectively.
>>
>>90776673
Can you give some examples of this inconsistency because I tried to think of some and none come to mind.

He seems to be pretty set on, "It's preferable to talk things out, and it's okay to fight, but not to kill".
>>
>>90758683

Nah, he's lovable as fuck. Him pretending to be iron man only makes him more adorable.

Also, dude has actually grown more tolerable as his character has progressed, both emotionally and power wise. I mean, it was fun seeing him freak out over daft stuff that didn't really matter, and beating monsters by macgyvering them, but the current arc of 'maybe the people I like aren't perfect, and not all people can be trusted' is neat.

>>90758714

Shinji gets shit on from the first episode though, everyone else would throw in the towel, or die when beat up by angels on a weekly basis.

Fuck, his best friend bitch slaps him, when he suggests his own father, who he has known his whole life, isn't exactly perfect. He's not even insulting him, he's literally saying 'he's not exactly perfect'.

>>90758716

Eh. Mabel was just immature, and matured over her mistakes over the episode. It's more of a coming of age thing.


Johnny Test however

>literally causes an ice age because he can't do his own homework
>manipulates a weather device meant to be used for humanitarian reasons
>Kicks the shit out of a species, who were admittedly trying to invade from the core, but were weak as fuck
>Proceeds to ruin their home FOREVER

THIS WAS IN A SINGLE FUCKING EPISODE
>>
>>90776197
Not even I, /co/, can be contrarian for this show.
>>
>>90776728
The only thing good about SU is the lore and art design and most songs, the writers are basically hacks and the plot is all over the place because in every episode, the characters are just projections of what that writer thinks they should be like. This is amplified after Peridot is introduced and they woobify Lapis because of the zuke faggotry.
>>
>>90776832
Yo dude I asked a question to another guy, I wasn't inviting solicitations for a general "Bitch about Steven Universe the show" post, okay. Take it to your fucking blog.
>>
>>90776901
You're just gonna have to tough this one out because it's basically a waste to list examples. It's your fault you're too dense to see the flaws for what they are and still enjoy the show for it's strengths.

Who even started this bullshit trend was it Korra?

I used to love this show, but why did they make Steven's voice so high pitched? Every time he talks it's like knives going into my ears, why did they change it?
>but they had to because the actor went through puberty
So? The same thing happened in Adventure Time and nobody seems bothered by it. And that doesn't explain why they pitched it up so far beyond it's original pitch, they over did it and it's driving me crazy!
>>
>>90761465
Was he that bad? He got obnoxious for sure somewhere in season 2, but I don't remember feeling anything about him in season 1
>>
>>90780580
It doesn't mean there aren't people spouting hearsay they saw on /pol/ in this thread right now either.
>>
>>90781437
The opposite happened in AT, the VA's balls dropped so they decided that meant the character was aging

In SU they make sure that Steven isn't physically growing so the VA has to castrate himself to still sound like a lil kid, I agree it's pretty annoying
>>
>>90764954

This somehow turned into the "Let's make every episode about how many weird faces our main characters can make" the TV show.
>>
>>90758683
CN has been shit since 2006.
>>
>>90779356
Are you too retarded to google this shit and inform yourself? And no, it wasn't Korra. Try going back further than that by a handful of decades.
>>
>>90776197

Did this even get past episode 1? Didn't they cancel it mid-episode and fire everyone on the planet?

>>90779172

Yeah no kidding, he is practically a teenager in a pre-teen body. And the show tells us he physically ages when he has reaches a certain mental maturity. But he hasn't, so he'll stay a kid for now.
