Plot armor

Literal plot armor too

he's charismatic and determined

He has some narrower scraps but typically he wins with his friends help, diplomacy or experimenting with his powers. Sometimes there's also plot armor but that's because SU is a cartoon not a realistic stimulation.

Steven Universe's main lesson is that you can get anything you want if you cry hard enough.

I think the Gems are just really incompetent in the last week Lars went from a human with no idea about gems in the bottom of a pit to a space pirate stealing spaceships
youtube.com/watch?v=3pAJXn5rVnc

Homeworld are a bunch of retards, because noone can write someone smarter then oneself. We can see it with Lars as newest example.
One wonders how Homeworld even became an interstellar empire for such incompetence.

You know, why couldn't steven just not have left and then we'd have a cool episode of them taking a ship together?

>but rose quartz couldn't have done it!

that episode really clashed with all other episodes implying homeworld's ineffectiveness

like all of a sudden the pathetic band of rebels that caused them so much trouble can't do a simple assassination?

But then we couldn't watch another townie episode. Can you imagine?!

eriously though I bet with you that the very next episode that will air will be some townie shit.

I thought the implication was thought the Gems were totally unchanging and self centered. Their technology isnt made for organics and they're unfamiliar with freely changing roles or character. Plus theyre in decline which has been mentioned multiple times.

It's almost as if the show is really poorly written or something.

There's been plenty of times with the main crew and especially the homeworld guys where they just act like complete retards. e.g. half the stuff that lapis did, the rubies, holly blue etc.

His enemies are stupid and incompetent. Plus he can get insanely lucky at times.

Rubies are dumb goons certainly. What Lapis and Holly stuff are you thinking about?

The perfect west coast millenial show.

Well the are running out resources, their newer generation gems are weaker than the previous ones and they often argue with each other than you know, get a huge army and take over the planet themselves.

I wonder if Yellow Diamond knows about the Cluster being bubbled, she found out would she just do it herself and rather her best troops to pop it herself?

But the show was made by an east coast millennial

Because the writers want him to.

Didn't you hear, according to Cal Arts crying like a blubbering buffoon to your neurotic maternal figures counts as character development that means he wins poorly animated fights.

You are aware that the difference between a huddled fugitive and a space pirateis exactly that part?
Having stolen a ship, I mean.

Steven Universe isn't that bad.

Millennial's cry because they're babies who don't get their own way and their mommy told them they were special, Steven cries because he's going through emotional hardships that will actually make him develop as a person like the death of his parent and being put in serious actual danger, not mean people tweeting at them.

Also concrete is cute.

but 90% of the time he just cries over mundane shit. he doesn't even actually know rose either

>he doesn't even actually know rose either
His mom?

>be the result of your moms death in a town filled with family owned businesses and living with people who resent you/expect you to take her place
Must suck

>it's "Steven always cries" meme

Yeah Steven's pretty much just a lil bitch. If I was the main character of this show there'd be some changes let me tell you. First of all I wouldn't pussy around crying all the time in front of Connie, I'd be knee deep in curry pussy. Maybe Steven doesn't have the balls to shapeshift himself a monster dick but I do.

Connie gets the dick, Pearl gets the dick, Lapis gets the dick. Garnet and Amethyst are put on a fucking diet, can't stand fat whores. Peridot would be relegated to ice cream sandwich courier.

I'd tell that fucking Mayor Dewey "MAYOR DEWEY, MAYOR DEWEY LISTEN UP BROHEIM I'M RUNNING THIS BITCH NOW WHATS UP?" and I'd use my cunning (unlike Steven, I have a genius level IQ that I use to regulate my emotions) to fortify the town and give everybody guns. Then I'd call up homeworld and say something really bad ass like "YEAH I ASSASSINATED YOUR LEADER, AND I DIDNT CRY ONCE ABOUT IT"

So when the homeworld cunts come knocking we lit these fuckers uuuup. I'm not a fucking baby like Steven, this would be a full scale war. And if that fat fucker Greg starts saying war is bad id just tell that fat slob "EAT A DICK POPS, THAT IS AMETHYST DIDNT TAKE EM ALL ALREADY" and send him to the fuckin gulag

And yeah I have a genius level IQ so I'm pretty much an alpha in my own right. That means I don't cry over gay shit like my mom being dead, or a war criminal or an alien invader. OK? The only time tears flow outta my head, it's my penis head and that salty saline serum is flowing right into Lapiss' gemhole, the gemhole Steve-o Dorkiverse was too BETA to sniff

SU is pretty much just millenial hipster tumblr comblr dyed hair liberal hippie organic garbage dumped into our laps by literal potbellied satanic goblins Rebecca Sugar and Lauren Zuke

Kids need real cartoons of substance that teaches strong life lessons, like Cow n Chicken or GI Joe

He has mild autism and people let him win.

BECAUSE WORST GEMS STAY TOGETHERE OR SOMETHING

>And send him to the fuckin gulag

It's because they're so rigid. They don't think outside of the box, only in their prescribed roles. Introduce a human into the mix, which is much more dynamic and adaptable, and you're sure to outsmart them.

Not to mention most gems have the emotional maturity of children

I lik3 this

Steel, noticed how nobody replied? It's because that was shit. Go back to drawing barely fappable porn of Homestuck characters. Yeesh, how sad.

Are there any other shows like Steven Universe?
>idyllic, simplistic setting that leaves you slightly melancholy
>mysterious, magical elements in plot
>surprisingly sublime development and melodrama
>leaves you wanting more, but also somehow happy and satisfied in having so many things left to the imagination
When I watch certain parts of SU, I get the same feeling I get when I listen to this song:
youtube.com/watch?v=_nW5AF0m9Zw
Does anyone know what I'm talking about, or do I just sound retarded?

Will this show have any kind of actual payoff or consequence?

I'm not falling for the "hype" behind that last trailer, the fact fucking Lars of all people is the one getting off-screen space adventures while we're stuck watching the life of one shitty little Earth town pisses me off to no end.

>he says this immediately after 94127622 replies

I feel like this is what that guy would say to himself.

>barely fappable porn
thanks for the compliment.

Now that's "2 edgy". Well done user.

Over the Garden Wall?

Well, he's determined most of the time.

You're pathetic, that's all.

It would be if that wasn't your peak, and if you hadn't stagnated. Seriously. I hope you work in retail or something. Something a retard like you is capable of, bagging groceries or something.

Who hurt you?

edge

I'll check it out, thanks user.

What makes you say that? I just want comfy shit to watch.

Like Greg would have to pause

>Are there any other shows like Steven Universe?
if you like I can make a channel devoted to taking massive dumps

I would watch that. I'm ashamed to admit.

Damn Connie is so fucking cute

I want scatfags to leave.

Almost as cute as those turds she leaves on the street.

>scatfags
Steven Universe fans?

ay you appreciate weebshit? you might well enjoy the manga dungeon meshi, its similar to what you're looking for with a /tg/ glaze

Ebin

Have you smelled her left hand?

I don't think I've smelled anyone's left hand.

Good news then, you don't have to be close to smell her left hand.

Are you a 2d character?

Yes.

Tell me how to travel to your dimension

Pot calling kettle black.

If you masturbate to cartoons enough times the portal opens up to you.

Perfect. Just perfect.

Could someone turn these into a comic.

Does it matter what cartoon?
I don't Wana end up in sailor moon or some shit for a guilty far.

Alright, that caught me off guard seeing Lars as suave and witty as that. Still just want this shit-ass "bomb" schedule to stop and for this hiatus to be over. Gimme some plot progression as well, townie episodes need to fuck off. I'm ready for many a space adventure.

>After getting his sister devoured by a dragon and losing all their supplies in a failed dungeon raid, Lyos and his party are determined to save his sister before she gets digested. Completely broke and having to resort to eating monsters as food, they meet a dwarf who will introduce them to the world of dungeon meshi - Delicious cuisines made from ingredients such as the flesh of giant bats, walking mushroom, or even screaming mandrakes.
This sounds weird, but in an interesting way. I like it already.

>Padparascha is bright orange

I didn't know how I felt about this, but then
>Bingo bongo
I'm okay with this. Emerald looks like a cute gem, too.

SVIS
Or: Sudden Villain Incompetency Syndrome.
When a villain can waltz through a secure military installation, but can then be defeated by a child with no formal training. Happens all the time and is lazy writing.

Literally the whole reason why Lars of the Stars is so great is because of all those townie episodes you despise, faggot.

Because the moral of this show is that everyone deep down is a good person and you never ever have to actually kill people to solve a problem. The world will just sort itself out and everyone will come back physically or psychologically in one way or another even if you fuck up. Heck if you fuck up it'll just make everyone come back to your side faster with little, no, or exponentially delayed consequences for your actions. Oh and everything can be solved with talking and crying and emotions.

Because that's how life/the world works apparently.

That's not really the core problem here, ignoring the fact that the majority of Steven's cries or hissy fits stem from mundane and inconsequential events. It's the fact that most people prefer watching a character protagonist be emotionally mature rather than hyper emotional. I've seen plenty more characters go through worse events in different series even at younger ages and they don't act like spazzes that feel the need to cry. If anything Steven's life situation is better than most, even in our world.


>Will this show have any kind of actual payoff or consequence?

By asking that question it implies you ever had faith in this show. But no. As much as people muh about the status quo being broken by recent episodes you can be damn sure that everything will go back to normal at the very end of the series. I doubt anyone would actually die or be destroyed.

Because the Diamonds don't care enough to put any significant effort into defeating the Crystal Gems. If they tried, they could wipe them off the face of the planet, but they think it's only a matter of time before the Cluster does it for them.

That, and Yellow Diamond hates thinking about Earth, so she's trying to handle all Earth-related matters with as little attention and resources as possible.

Except everything you say is wrong.
All change in this show goes back to Steven's initiative and a few external events and there is quite some of that. But sure, it's all the same. There is no massive shift here as Steven's growing powers and responsibility deepen the dent he is making.
There are not three Gems that defected from Homeworld added to those on Earth. There is not a lot uncovered about who Rose Quartz was, Steven has not begun to consciously make moral choices for the good of the group, Connie has not become a sword-swinging child soldier, Amy has not stopped playing pretend as real achievements have given her much deeper satisfaction and improved her self-worth, Pearl has not gone forward and processed the loss of Rose, and of course there is not suddenly a big uncertainty hanging over Steven as well as the Diamonds regarding the death of Pink Diamond. Oh, and Lars has not been resurrected as a pink zombie space pirate portal thingy.
I think Sugar put it best:
Everything stays
But it still changes
In little ways
When everything stays

Because everyone who's behind the writting of this show behaves like a bunch of kids writting their first fanfic

Attention people itt using the word "millennials"

Millennials are fucking 30

The teenage tumblrites you are memetically bashing are not and have never been millennials.

>like all of a sudden the pathetic band of rebels that caused them so much trouble can't do a simple assassination?
No, because assassinations aren't simple, especially when your target is constantly on the move and surrounded by loyal guards, and you're a well-known enemy of the state that anyone could recognize on sight.

bravo my man
