only problem is the never ending hiatus makes the filler episodes worse than they allready are.
Like, season 4 was so unbearable, but if i saw it all in one go i would have enjoyed it.
Please dont see the show for a while. The hiatus kills people like me who are waiting for new eps

Yea so high quality. Characters who arent consistent, well steven is consistently annoying so I guess thats a plus for him, and stories that go nowhere.

What fun. They shouldve just stuck to random stories with anime references thrown in to look cool and not try to pretend theres a story underneath all the muck.

Well, to each his own. Though i dont know many who would choose to eat shit..then again SU threads are usually very active so at least your not alone in your choice.

I recently finished the whole series, i dont see how seeing s4 in piece or all together wouldve heightened its quality.

I guess it must hurt as a fan. To watch an episode, and somehow enjoy it, only to wait weeks for another 3 episodes. Only to have to wait again.and again.

But what was good about season 4? I only saw stories that went nowhere and characters who were dumb as bricks.

>>94743945
The Zoo arc and when aquamarine and topaz showed up. Those where great. Because,you know,actual story happened. The zoo arc felt like it was nothing because after those episodes, we got a bunch of filler. If from the zoo arc we would have jumped straight into the good lars, the last batch of episodes would have been a good finale. But nope, we gotta see steven hanging around with onion.
The stories went somewhere, but it didnt feel like it.

I hate steven universe. I say this as a person who's studied animation , that the models are so solid shape-based and rigid that it is impossible to make proper fluid animation for it that is clean on the eyes. It goes against all beauty in animation. The ugliness of the designs themselves, even the "attractive characters" is just disgusting and a disappointment to anyone who has ever studied the art of animation. It's funny, even little kids pick up on this. Everytime this is on TV my little sister screams "turn it off, it's ugly" and cries until we change the channel, in which I truly feel second hand embarrassment every time. My little sister is now 9 and she still does this.

164 animators around the globe collaborate to redraw the episode of Steven Universe "The Answer" in their varying styles

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDuLP-ImfgM
(alternate link for non-americans) https://vimeo.com/227563486

For something like this to happen, the people involved need talent, skill, creativity, drive, passion, and the self-discipline to see something through to the end.

This video is definitive proof that the fans have more of these qualities than the critics, who will never do anything remotely as impressive. The malcontents here are all talk and no action.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
-Teddy Roosevelt

Steven is a crybaby with the brain of a baby

Amethyst is a fat, depressed reject
I'm so glad their personalities are so consistent the show has to remind us of them every season by dedicating a few episodes to explain again how their personalities are

I am hoping Yellow Diamond isn't actually behind the shattering of Pink Diamond,unlike what the show seems to suggest.

I think during the trial, she actually understood there was something fishy going on, but came to the conclusion, White Diamond was the perpetrator, but thinking Blue would try to confront White is she came to the same decision, decided to cut the Trial short.

she want to figure stuff out by herself, before deciding what action to take, meanwhile keeping Blue in the fog.

>Starts out as an annoying useless team member
>Gradually gains experience, new powers and becomes an annoying moral fag

I think the main problem people have is that steven comes across an annoying retard in both cases, adding more powers didn't really help his character. You can make an useless character that's no good in combat and make it work, you can make a powerful moral fag, that's fine too, the problem is that his mindset is completely off tone with his position and in that regard it hasn't change one bit, he's too childish and shallow for the situation he's in and that makes it not interesting and its really annoying becouse by all means it should be interesting.

Its like this, imagine walking up to fat little Steven and ask him "Hey steven, what do you think about war?" and his answer would be something like "Well, i think war is bad!" and that is his whole tesis on the subject, just saying "War is bad!" is a safe non-answer that solves nothing and its as insightful as "Evil is wrong!", not that even a character with a shallow point of view can't be good but becouse he's the main character (and becouse the writers are hacks) everyone has to sink BELOW his level of understanding and morals so he can come out on top making every character more stupid that a 12 year old retarded simpleton
>>
>>94765119
Depends. If you like shounen, it's a brain-dead but fun diversion. Original Dragon Ball is light-hearted old-school adventure. Dragon Ball Z gets into the whole shounen, escalating power levels and drawn-out battle thing, but it is pretty hype at times. You won't feel as much for the characters if you haven't seen the original DB though. Pretend Dragon Ball GT never happened. Dragon Ball Super feels too much like they just kept things going because it brings in the moolah, the characters just don't feel right anymore.

Maybe read the manga up to the part where Dragon Ball Z starts (when Raditz shows up), then watch DBZ Kai which is remastered and cuts out some useless filler.
>>
I was hooked on it as soon add I heard it was being headed by someone who worked on Adventure Time, but I got less interested when it felt like the story arc was being stretched apart by the normie episodes. The real time wait between Bombs also didn't help, and the constant emotional breakdowns also didn't help.

I do like Stevonnie though.

I agree here. The biggest issue with Steven is that he is really inconsistent in personality. The Crewniverse dug themselves into a fucking ditch by confirming his age as 14. So you have sometimes where Steven acts, well, more or less like a faggy 14 year old boy, with some moments of surprising maturity and other moments of groan worthy immaturity, gradually growing as a hero and a leader. But there are some times where the storyboarders just... forget this, and just start writing Steven as a 10 year old boy that occasionally has deep moments of insight, with no real sense of emotional maturity beyond what an 8 year old girl would bring to the table. The storyboarder inconsistency does not help, at all.

This isn't even new. The original pitch for Steven Universe made it clear that Steven was like 14 or 15, a definite teenage boy, just with some faggy tendencies because he was raised by space lesbians. But when the show officially starts he seems to regress like 4-5 years in age.

These
his challenges were expanding a bubble more, which he could train and do on his own, and the tears which they just gave him to explain why lion is pink, why couldn't it just be some alien that could shape shift but just chose to be a lion. they are just giving him powers as they feel

he has a mindset of a kid and will always have one until its " time " for him to become older he has to be in a mindset of a adult which is ass.
i kinda hoped that when larz died that's when he would grow a damn pair, but they just gave steven the power to be revived.
