Would peridot have been better if they kept the asian influences going?
She seems pretty popular in japanese fan art circles as it is.
Similar to how amethyst drew on cholo aesthetics.

this picture is hilarious because it implies anyone in that frame was going to be a threat in any kind of way.
This was literally the only shot where she looks "asian coded" early Peridot didn't and nor does current Peridot.
Peridot would have been better if she wasn't turned into a flanderized, barned meme gobline who's only purpose was to look cool in group shots though
Move along. This board isn't big enough for two green waifus.
Then leave poser.
Maybe for one episode or something. When the CG's tell steven not to go to Korea, he asks lapidot to come instead.

Fucking shit.
Wasted potential the show

it was already foreshadowed
What was foreshadowed?
The irony in that title...
Yea, really depressing how well it sums up the series.
sundress > kimono
everyone in the picture getting redeemed
Can someone tell me what happebed to Peridot afyer the three first episodes she appeared?
Why even show her as a cold one?
Nothing, she ran and hid like a coward. Every fake fan thinks she was intimidating and Spock-like when she was just as wacky as she is nowadays.
Thats not what thats foreshadowing.
>naked
top that
>Every fake fan thinks she was intimidating and Spock-like when she was just as wacky as she is nowadays.
Oh great, this nigga again. I see your still parroting the same argument that has been debunked multiple times already.
>post yfw Rebecca Sugar actually has an ass
Cope more retard. She was Looney Tunes then and she's Looney Tunes now. You can't rewrite history and you sure as shit aren't as smart as you think you are.
what the fuck are you talking about?
>She was Looney Tunes then and she's Looney Tunes now. You can't rewrite history and you sure as shit aren't as smart as you think you are.
No she wasnt, your the one re writing history. you can clearly see she didnt act like a screeching retard back in season 2 like she does now. The only "fake fan" here is you.
If you listen closely during that part, you can hear Lapis and Peridot singing along. So yes, their redemption was foreshadowed.
She was aloof from her confidence in her hardware and technical skills.
She was striped of her augments, shown her skills could be learned by "lesser" castes, abandoned by her chain of command, legitimately thought she was going to die, and finally told she was loved as a person.
It's reasonable to have a changed attitude.
>If you listen closely during that part, you can hear Lapis and Peridot singing along.
No you cant nigga, that myth got debunked already. Its just a younger steven, that wasnt them singing.
Peridot cannot transform like Rose. So that seems kind of pointless.
>Keeping It Together
She's recording a log about her experiments, in order words, activating the fused shards in order for the cluster the form, until she gets stopped by the CGs. She escapes by making a helicopter with her hand and laughs manically.
>Cry for Help
She uses the communication hub to reach Yellow Diamond, but is unsuccessful.
These were the episodes that aired before the extended theme song was released to SDCC, but afterwards, Friend Ship aired and showed Peridot like a Saturday morning villain.
F*CK
I'm pretty sure gems still have "assets" underneath their clothing.
The same thing that happened to Yellow's neck. The writers thought it would be funny and they ran with it. Remember, there's no script. Everything is done by boards so things tend to be more 'fluid'.
>She's recording a log about her experiments, in order words, activating the fused shards in order for the cluster the form, until she gets stopped by the CGs.
No? the cluster and shards are activating on their own, shes just there to check their progress and make a timetable for when the cluster should emerge. She had nothing to do with actually making them.
she changed and developed as a character. she was always a coward and a nerd from the very beginning. i can understand wanting her to be more of a threat like she was when he had her limb enhancers, but calling it flanderization is retarded.
>Implying that doesn't make them even more attractive
peridot is one of the best characters in the show together with pearl and amethist.
>Amethyst
Spelling aside i agree completely, Peri and Amy are especially precious to me.
>peridot is one of the best characters in the show
Whew lad.
Anything that happened with Zuke should not be considered canon.
>it could've been great
perfectly describes the series
Years old SU video I made got killed by a copyright claim a while back, but I disputed it and they actually released the claim.
If anyone is interested.
youtube.com
Pretty cozy desu.
she is funny as fuck
i have more enjoyment out of the show by watching youtube videos with short parts of the episodes instead of watching them by their entirety.
some user perfectly described the show in the last thread.
>some user perfectly described the show in the last thread.
Do you remember how he described it?
Being a screaming gremlin does not make you a good character.
Here it is right on the money imo.
Remember what i said here anonNobody likes screaming gremlin Peridot, thats all zukes fault.
> implying there's anything other than monoboob
i forget if Jasper is drawn with cleavage though...
someone post Jasper.
Jasper also had visible cleavage that you could see during her fight with smokey.
Peridot's gotten even worse after Zuke, user.
Its still Zuke that caused it. Its not Peridots fault everyone writes her OOC, Peridot is great and lovable, the writers are not.
>adding faggotry to anything solely because it is faggotry.
Then the verb you're looking for is 'was.'
>Peridot was a good character
>Peridot was funny
not the same guy but i still think she is funny. however i prefer her old clothes. i like the new glasses but everything else is kinda meh.
Peridot would've been better if they kept her as a Dexter/Zim -esque sociopath who learned to care for the earth in her own way.
She is written OOC, that is the fault of the writers. If she was written properly then she wouldnt be annoying.
Peridot does not exist outside of the writers
Absolutely, Becky and the crew really went the wrong direction with her character.
sure
And the writers are shit who cant even keep their characters personalities and fucking size consistent from episode to episode or even shot to shot.
Her character is what the writers want it to be, anons. If you have a problem with this, the only thing you can do is hold the memory of old Peridot close and dear to your heart.
thats what i do.
i miss old peridot, i still like her tough.
Ever heard of the concept of "Death of the author"? If the writers wanna play fast and loose with their story and not pay attention to characterization they can, doesn't mean i have to accept it.
why does her hair change in every pic?
shit boy, i wanna draw as clean as that, good job
to add to the convostart, I wouldn't mind an asian dommy mommy shortstack in latex
Ian confirmed it was Steven's voice.
SU would never do anything that cool anyway.
see>"cant even keep their characters personalities and fucking size consistent from episode to episode or even shot to shot."
>Crystal Gems, you would approach me rather than flee?
but why not? how hard can it be?
Something I've noticed. Despite how much people reference Steven's talk no jutsu, he very rarely get's through people with words.
Well, according to the crew, if you can recognize the character, then its on model. this isnt new, the character designs aren't consistent at all, even their heights relative to each other fluctuate constantly.
the height/hair is the easiest to spot, but I still don't understand why you'd go with 60's comic ethics about recognizability.
The crew and sugar says its so the art doesn't feel "dull" or "boring". Real reason is almost certainly because their just too lazy to stay on model.
What do you even call this?
It goes beyond the "nullo" tag to no holes or nipples at all.
I just call it barbie anatomy.
Marvelous mannequin
Kinda mad, it's a lame excuse for being unprecise, amateuristic even. I wish that the art was more consistent and that peridot was more of an asian dommy mommy shortstack in latex
She never really had an asian thing going on, Pearl had more asian elements than peridot did desu. But yea, the art in this series is pretty fucking bad.
I wish she was tho, I caught yellow fever from my friends sisters
some humanisations are asian, ya perv
I'm fine with it, i'd rather clap some alien cheeks instead of boring old human ones.
this right here is THE best human peridot i've seen.
i like that artist's lapis as well
>tattoos
i just found out about it
tattoos can be charming
Or rather, they didn't go in any direction at all. Her story was done and the writers didn't want to include her in any more adventures, so they just throw a couple of garbage lines every so often to remind us that she's still quirky and insufferably autistic. Everyone besides Steven got shit spotlight the later we get into the series, honestly.
good shidd brother. Aaah, I wanna commision Peridot pieces with that kinda style/idea in mind, but i gotta reel in more hours to get a diverse set of artists, I know a couple who'd take comms from for Peri's, but I don't wanna knock on their door so much, since I feel like a nuisance at that point :v
I'd clap both, perhaps xenophilia :^)
Tatteroni's can be tasteful, you just gotta find the better stuff
In multiple aspects
>I wanna commision Peridot pieces
i wish i had money for that.
work more jobs, I'm currently not pushing for hours, cuz I'm back at my parents, since the rent became too high, but there was a time where I'd work at a school from 12:00-16:00 with the autistic children and then from 17:00-23:00 as a dishwasher. It was worth it to me in the end
I´d call it "Mechanical Animal"
>ywn get an aggressive bj from mm
What kind of thing is this? I really like it.
i am already 27 and currently jobless. no one is hiring in my region at the moment. i am also a 3rd worlder so even when i do get a job commissions will be expensive regardless.
gills?
is this unedited?
Perhaps roll your own. Photoshop's vector curvature tool makes it very easy to do SU-style linework with a mouse.
It's nice to know that, as a straight white male, all of my writing can center around my interests and my interests alone, solely because I am only capable of writing about things innately familiar to me.
its schwarbage
If the show was literally just Joe, Jeff, Sucrose, and maybe Ian than it would've been fantastic
Fem sugar is cute
Peridot would still be popular if she did shit instead of being put into the background
Learn to draw, user. Once you get decent you may be amazed at how much you make.
alright, where do i learn to draw?
When you hear the line you also hear jasper, peridot, and lapis voice. So yeah it was foreshadowed
Grab a pen, grab paper, go to sadpanda and go nuts.
...
>You're not a threat unless you have to resolve it with violence
Peridot is the only redemption arc they did right.
When are we gonna see a naked Spinel pic with barbie doll anatomy?
looks like reiner
that isn't what death of author means, retard.
Death of author is about ignoring authorial intention or the author's claims made outside the work, not the actual content of the work
Dumbledor isn't gay because 'death of author', but 'death of author' doesn't change him dying
fucking idiot
>Jasper poofed Amethyst.
>Yellow Diamond poofed Garnet, Opal, Peridot, and Lapis.
Yikes dude.
Damn, you're right.
Next question, why are all other races utterly incapable of squinting ever?
She canonically has no gastrointestinal tract, so certainly not any other bits.
Good luck with your next autistic female character obsession, user.
good thing Sugar kicked her out
Lapidot was reasonable though.
What else were they going to do all day living in the country?
Sugar herself recommends Figure Drawing for All It's Worth and Perspective! for Comic Book Artists
no way this is real
>t.zuke
The white curve is the most generous curve possible
>Perspective! for Comic Book Artists
haven't read the other but this is legit a good book and a fun read on top of that
> Everyone besides Steven got shit spotlight the later we get into the series
If ever there was a major gripe to be had with this show. They introduce side characters that have more depth as the main characters of other cartoons and central characters with as much complexity as the main character and then just never do anything with them. It's even worse when you don't find Steven as engaging as the Gems.
What I hate the most about this is that she completely admitted to not considering or talking to the rest of the team about what she wanted but then goes out to the public and announces them as gay as if she was doing the public a favor.
Lauren Zuke obviously wanted the be the next rebecca here
Yo, I forgot when pearl and garnet changed outfits. Which episode was it for each one of them?
It confuses me that the diamonds gave Pink an Spinel in order to make her have fun when Peridot herself didn't understand what ''funny'' meant.
>I'm still on the fence
There's still hope.
Pearl said their forms are capable of eating, they never said they had to shape shift a digestive system.
>this teaser comes out
>because of real life issues and the sporadic release of episodes I stop watching the show consistently
>change your mind rushed out like the show was cancelled
Is it all my fault bros?
Also
>original singer of I'm a Star gets no love in universe
Why
Era 2 had no laughter
This show has multiple writers and very little quality control, characters are all over the place all the time because of it. You cant just disregard Peridot as "bad" cause the writers are retarded and would rather use her character to push jokes instead of being an actual character.
Steven the swordfighter for pearl and jailbreak for garnet and then garnet after the wedding and pearl during change your mind I think
fucking this
Ten days from now they are going to air Say Uncle at 6 AM, wtf I am watching
user, it was a joke
of all the gems she knew him the longest
Coping lapisfag
Her fucking chest looks unreal
Imagine if she got to The Zoo episode, her trying to explain why the choosening would pair same sex couples
One day he will want to die and she will be there for him
Shit, i almost wish she was still on the show at that point so we could see what bullshit she would come up with. That wouldve been hilarious.
she's hot
honest question, do you really think she's still wanting to kill him after all the shit he did for her?
if that's the case, then why?
>I am gay so characters I make have to be gay
What a clod. Tove Jansson was gay and she didn't write a single gay character for her Moomin stories. And yet, those characters still live on, after years and years.
Venture Bros is a show that has plenty of gay characters and it's written by two straight white males (I think). They are also better characters than those on SU.
Yes, it's pretty inline with her character.
>Anything that happened with Zuke should not be considered canon.
this
fuck zuke and her shipping bullshit
Ignoring shipping bullshit, even Zukes writing was not internally consistent within the show. A lot of shit she wrote about gems was blatantly false if you watch other episodes, she was a shit writer overall, the shipping shit was just the cherry on top that really showed how terrible she was.
>you can't make this shit up
i'm always torn about peridot, like on one hand i like her being goofy but on the other, damn i wish she had like, any more character development.
They try to give her cool expertise but it has to be useless next to Steven
It's an edit.
that sucks hella dicks bro, where in Murica do you live?
Jokes aside, other anons talked about the photoshop, this one has a decent idea, but I don't know how long it will take you to learn how to draw. I've been on it for 2 years now and I still draw crude as fuck
m-may i know who the artist is?
imagine searching didn't give me shit, only being reposted on pinterest without source, the peridot was from "gemfuck" on tumblr, but that seems to be nuked. GL with finding a rope AT ALL bro, be sure to post it when you found it
>Steg reappears
I'm I did some research and now i know.
The artist is ruki-32
nut in my butt dude, #nohomotho ofc, imma archive their stuff asap
>That face
Who the hell drew this? Someone should make sure they never draw anything again.
Jasper poofed Garnet too
2easy
look at the fucking link, put on your glasses bro
this was in my random folder which is idk how old
Peridot would have been better if she kept her initial opinions of hating Earth thus wanting to destroy it and that bubbling the cluster was purely to delay it for selfish reasons.Then actually warning yellow diamond about the crystals still being alive and to send an army to help her.
The biggest problem with this show
>hey stop being evil
>but I love being evil
>come on
>NO
>come on
>ehhh... okay
I disagree. Having Peridot come to actually like earth and want to protect it is a pretty good direction for her character. The problem here is that the crew didnt think of what to do with her after she got redeemed, so they just shoved her in a barn with blue bitch and pretended they didnt exist.
Would've been better if she didn't call yellow a clod and got away from earth without telling that the crystal gems were here to the diamonds.
THEN steven when going to sleep can see through the eyes of peridot cause of magiiic(a teardrop on her or something before she leaves idk) she get new limbs enhancer on homeworld but start missing the cg and realize that the diamonds are bad people. she manage to trick the diamonds by telling that she was going to check the cluster cause it was suppose to emerge a while ago and she finish her redemption arc on earth.
It took my litteraly 30 seconds to think of that synopsis, its pretty shit but miles better than what the crewniverse did, how tf? i feel like they're too lazy to design the sci-fi stuff (i mean look how much they've fucked up homeworld, it look unappealing) (sry for the broken engwish)
t. Never seen the show
I mean, hes obviously exaggerating a bit, but he's kinda right.
In what way was Jasper not a threat? Because she was taken care of? Or even yellow diamond?
I'll maybe give you peridot since she has always been kinda a dope but even she calls for the backup that leads to The Return and eventually Steven being captured by Aquamarine
Garnet was beating jasper at the end of jailbreak, theres no way she could've taken on all the CG's by herself without assistance. So i can kinda see why user wouldnt consider her a threat.
But she ends up fusing into malachite, a threat that even the gems couldn't take care of without help from watermelon Stevens
Malachite and Jasper are different entities, she was only that strong cause of Lapis anyway. Jasper on her own wasnt as much of a threat.
High class gems have fun and music.
Lesser technicians don't, those terms are completely alien to Peridot.
They didn't mean to show that gemkind don't have feelings or art (that's very clearly not the case), but to show that gems with a purpose aren't allowed to deviate from that purpose.
My point is that without Jasper there is no malachite, and to a less literal extent, without peridot there is no Jasper. All of the villians in that picture lead to putting the gems in genuine very real danger so it's unfair to say they aren't a threat
>turn her into my self-insert so she can fuck my depressed waifu lmao
They already did that with Navy Ruby
They storyboarded a scene about that, but weren't allowed to put it in the actual episode.
I've been thinking she's cute all the way back to her AT days. Go to her Instagram and everyone will realize the goblin memes were wrong.
As much as I detest thirsting after e-celebs, I have to make an exception for straight hair RS.
Absolute lel
>the age of hype in 2015 when Yellow Diamond was shown
>then it turned into nearly 2 years before blue appeared
>then 2 years later white was defeated by laughing at her and saying she was a nigger/off color
since it didnt make it into the show its debatable weather or not this is canon. But we do have a statement from pearl saying gems can eat, no shapeshifting mentioned. Plus im pretty sure zuke was involved in that scene, and we've already established how she was pretty fast and loose with the canon.
I think the goblin meme just came from Becky looking a bit homely when she cut her hair short, it didnt look as good as the long hair did.
yeah
Peridot's job was to oversee development of new colonies. Fun isn't in her domain.
based
I do like a plain Jane..
>I'm going to miss Peridot, Pearl and Connie...in that order.
your pic makes me kinda mad
Reminder that at a minimum, Peridot has at least two fuckable holes.
We're all sadden about losing our favorite green short-stack.
true
if only we could keep her alive
Oh shes still alive, shes just far away and in hiding after everything. Poor little thing really needs sometime to relax after everything thats happened to her.
Alas, alas.
I guess we should be grateful for what we did get.
Okay. This got me b&d last time.
>barnlife
Go to bed, Ernest.
I'll see what I can do.
i'd still put my dick in that if she had the same personality as normal Peridot, would you guys do it?
Nope, no barns, they bring up bad memories for her.
I'm bored, so give me a song from the movie to sing (bonus if theres crying involved).
So the whole rumor about a last season never had a hint of truth?
the intro song
The fuck are yall talking about? what rumor?
Aren't they making like 2 or 3 more seasons?

>poofing is in any way a threat

I wish more people would draw peridot with jagged teeth since she is supposed to have really sharp teeth.
the rumour that they will live in minihomeworld or however it was called? I want my Peridoot episodes, even if she is a goblinesque abomination
there's at least one peridot episode in new season, with 'heartwrenching voice acting' or something
oh yeah
>those spit strands
This is vore.
you mean toecurling? :^)
gofile.io
I tried. Stiles is too good.
Peridot and Lapis are as wasted and the cool kids, they should have hooked up
You can stop now Zuke, your not on the show anymore.
As wasted as the cool kids, Jenny and Buck could go on dates with Lapis and Peridot
Oh, thats what you meant.
I loved Peridot’s arc. How she changed from a conditioned military dog to someone independent, confident, and someone who fell in love with organic life.
It was sweet how she defended Steven and Earth to YD. She idolized YD and was so convinced of her mission that being convinced otherwise was enough to make her believe YD could be convinced too. It was sweet. Peridot is a cinnamon roll.
I think the best way to progress Peridot would have been to have her get in a relationship with a human. It would be a pretty natural progression for her.
maybe just a friendship and she reedeems ronaldo from being so annoying?
That would work, she really should just be friends with some humans. It would make so much sense for her to do that.

huh. that doesnt sound like me at all.
What Asian influences?
Whats it say about Peridot?
Toenail fingers?
The biggest problem with the show is that it is good at building up things but terrible at delivering or keeping up with the promised stuff.
We hear about an intergalactic empire but don't see numbers as humongous as such an effort would require.
We hear Yellow Diamond, with disgust in her voice, say 'organic life', clearly pointing to that organic life exists outside of Earth, and she apparently promised to Steven to not refer to other life forms as lesser, but the only fucking organic aliens we got to see were the worm things. And if there were more, they were so forgettable and didn't have an influence on the plot that they might as well have not existed even harder than the Squats.
The enemies are built up as credible threats and the fact that they're from an intergalactic, presumably monstrous in size empire capable of dealing with outside threats, but we never see Homeworld send a whole army against Earth, only an occassional pack of retards. Not a fleet to glass the fucking planet. Not a few ships filled with hundreds of disposables like the Rubies to just overwhelm the enemy, get the Cluster and reign supreme forevermore.
No humans ever notice or care about alien life, alien structures, alien ruins or alien weapons, nothing, nada fucking happens.
How to do these things better? Listen to me, a random faggot from Yea Forums!
Have the Homeworld be preoccupied with a bigger conflict with some alien race.
Have Steven or maybe Lars run into a resistance of a rag-tag group of alien fighters, maybe Steven realizes that an endless war won't get this shit any closer to completion.
Have Homeworld's serious bulk thus be limited from attacking and whatever does arrive is kept away from Earth with old planetary defence systems Steven and co. activate. Hell, you could sprinkle in foreshadowing for Rose being important in the Homeworld hierarchy before she rebelled by the systems recognizing Steven's gem as valuable.
the way they describe each stone si different
americangemsociety.org
not sure if peridot has any significance with anything really.
I'd fuck her twice harder if she was a creepy, asshole-ish, cold on surface in both meanings bug lady.
>ywn have Peridot cuddling up close to you constantly because she gets cold so easily.
>ywn have Peridot trill semi-angrily, like an especially autistic cicada, whenever you anyhow show affection to her in public, official reason being that she finds you creepy and weird and a disgusting fleshy bag, and real reason being she's embarassed and can't fight back with the same thing

Ronaldo thinks Periodt is a snake seductress
She was the only character to have a development arc and finish it.
But I just she has room to grow more.
Its dumb, just cause she finished her character arc doesn't mean we dont need to have her around. She still wouldve been a great addition to the team.
Just because the threat was eventually resolved doesnt mean there was no threat. The CGs were honestly hopeless for pretty much all of Season 4 and 5 and they won with a copout
it sounds like superstitions are in there, just like zodiac signs
DOESN'T MATTER FUCKED AN ALIEN
yes
She was under used and paired up wit WORST Gem.
>Plus get rid of the socks and just add a sleeker visor and this would be perfect.
...Just because.
Plus I'm still disappointed that we didn't get my three way love triangle where Peridot and Connie compete for Steven's favor...
I'm glad Lars is getting to bone a crew of cute gems
I feel like half of all Yea Forums complaining is "My headcanon was deconfirmed!"
I guess that's kinda a unique problem that comes with constant months and months of hiatus's between major events. Peridot makes sense where she went but when you watch that episode where she appears on the TV in the kindergarten and get nothing else for a while, everyone makes up a weird version of Peridot in their head.
People aren't mad about headcanons, people are upset because they feel like her character is being/was wasted.
I disagree, a whole lot of complaints here stem from her somehow being inconsistent with her appearances but that really only seems like it spawns from this headcanon argument.
No? People wanting her to show up more often has nothing to do with headcanons.
>Tove Jansson was gay and she didn't write a single gay character
dont act like Snufkin isnt taping that sweet moomin ass every spring
It's omae ha. Not wa.
isnt it just the ha pronounced as wa anyways?
steven-universe.fandom.com
so, do Gems have gods? religion? Is there a Gemsus Christ?
>666
>666
OH NO YOU DON'T
は is pronounced "wa" in many circumstances, such as when being used as the topic particle. Omae wa mou shindeiru features "omae" (meaning "you") as the topic, so the following は is a topic particle, and sounds like "wa."
What would the anti-Christ gemstone be?
Ask Steven. He should know.
Nice bait, got me to reply
>one filler episode
Peridot would have solidified a more demanding presence of homeworld over Earth. Of course this also assumes that Steven can't just go to the diamonds and tell them to 'stop' and they agree on a dime.

That's really cool, but I have a fed questions : Why does Pearl/Opal have a ghost type ? Shouldn't Smoky be normal/dark or Fairy/Dark ? Shouldn't White have a Psychic type ? Shouldn't Yellow be fighting/electric ? Shouldn't Alexandrite be fire/fighting or dragon ?
I'd also add

>Stevonnie - Normal/Fairy or Steel
steven does keep it in his room so it cant be that sacred.
name a bigger wasted character
nah
What was her character? Blue and Yellow did everything and stayed away from her

its sad how much of a hateful cunt they turned lapis into, cracked lapis was a cute and her episodes had some of the best visuals in the show.

why live
i think season 6 wasnt greenlit yet so they must have been crambling to resolve every remaining plotlines before they got canned. the result was a shit season finale that felt forced and rushed to hell. its gay
But then why did they waste all that time on Connie relationship drama? Why spend time on a wedding? Or a concert?
If they thought season 5 was the end, they royally fucked the pacing.
It isn't fair.

it ain't. Gotta find an irl gremlin like her to pat and hug. May we find our goblin one day
>Woy llik gnikewf ot gnoig mi
What the fuck am I reading?
white diamond's a NEET
The better question is why did they waste one of their final episodes on Escapism. Likely the early stuff with Connie and maybe even Reunion were made before they entered panic-wrap-up-mode (although now that I think about it the non-resolution given to Lapis, especially in regards to what she did to Peridot, tips Reunion more into being made under the crunch time), but Escapism managed to be a townie episode stuffed into the middle of what could have been the big conclusive arc to the show. That's 11 minutes that could have been better spent developing White, explaining what the fuck happened to Pink Pearl, or at least giving us a glimpse of every day Homeworld. Cause with the empire dismantled with the time skip it seems like we're never going to see what Homeworld was like for an average gem. The pacing would have been fucked regardless but at least we could have tied up some ends, built up the main fucking villain just a teensy bit more, or actually explored the world that they built over the course of 5 seasons rather than suffer through a pointless episode about Watermelon Racism.
>action show
>EVERY bad guy is talked out of their entire characterization and motives
Hey user, let's pretend you are a Steven Universe villain. Would you kindly go fuck yourself?
is this the pedantic nigger retard who's got dick pics out there? also this "steven universe is about chill and peace who so these boring, dull, meaningless episodes about characters that have no effects on anything are important yo" argument is getting old. its bad storytelling plain and simple.
They kind of smack of corporate meddling to me.
>“Yo the 7-12 demo is down 7 points, we need a fun episode to boost the numbers.”
Remember how the Cluster and Malachite were resolved? And how Jasper was resolved? The show has always had crap pacing. I don't think they rushed the ending for any production reason, I think they just don't know how long it takes to tie things up in a satisfying way.
>REEEEEEEE BLUE STOP BEING A FAGGOT, MUH PERFECT EMPIRE

Yellow Diamond solved with one sentence.
>asian influences
She was based off Zim. gif unrelated
I mean in fairness to Jasper she was given a serious death stare by YD in the pool. I wonder if they really did “solve” her.
It kind of bothers me in the movie it's Bismuth who knows what the Rejuvenator is when it seems like new technology- that should be Peridot's department.
I'm also more than a little mad that the New Crystal Gem crew didn't get more of a spotlight, the second battle with Spinel could have them fighting- it would have been better because each of them have that kind of connection to Steven, that they were all his enemies at one point.
But user, you need to release tension every now and then. Remember Return of the King, when Frodo and Sam took a break from climbing Mount Doom to smoke pipes and have a nice cup of tea?
They have long lost any consistency.
Peridots handship was introduced as new tech shit, supported through the difference in architicture and technology of the old ruins and spaceships, yet everything we see at homeworld and their diamond ships are exactly the same.
Rejuvenators seem more like a military thing, and Bismuth was in the thick of the fighting so she must have seen a lot of combat fatigue and dissent “solved” with a Rejuv. Peridot is more like an engineer. She knew instantly what the injector was and what it was for.
see if the crew were smart id say that this is a hint that rejuvenators are not commonly used anymore, or were only used during the rebellion and thats why peridot doesnt know about them. what probably happened is that they forgot what peridot is supposed to be.
>Peridot goes through an actual arc
>she has to suffer
>her viewpoints are constantly challenged
>eventually those Peridot idolized prove themselves unworthy
>these things all build up over time and she changes as a person naturally
>steven: "lol dis empire sux"
>diamonds: "ur rite we love u steben"
It's schwarbage.
If it was the former then Spinel shouldn’t have a clue what one is, since the rebellion was many years after Spinel got dropped.
I wonder if this is actually a slow burn arc that the diamonds were never actually redeemed at all. The movie sort of hints that they are only doing it for Steven, nothing else. Which kind of makes Blue Diamond’s MUH SUFFERING MUH GEMS HATE LIFE character arc a bit pointless.
We still don't know how Spinel got the Injector and Rejuvenator- I'm hoping there's a new villain for the next season if there is one that supplied Spinel with her new toys.
This. The hand ship is presented as this technological marvel that exceeds most anything the gems have seen before, and yet Pink's apparently had her Leg ship since before the war started, 6000 years ago. It's like they forgot they presented gem artifacts as mythical and magical in the first season because they just ''had'' to have this Diamond mech for the final confrontation.
For fucks sake, rising action is Writing 101. It's not supposed to always be linear, but it's also not supposed to have a Grand Canyon right before the fucking climax.
meant for
They could do a hundred episodes of baby Steven
I’d love Tom and Jerry style episodes where Pearl is constantly trying to figure new elaborate ways of killing Baby Steven while he unknowingly survives every one. Garnet is Butch, the dog. Pearl has to kill Steven without waking up Garnet. Hijinks ensue.
Pearl is tom, Garnet is butch, who is Amethyst?
Why the fuck does Amethyst look like a gorilla here?
Amethyst is the inanimate object pearl uses. She works for Acme
Tyke, or Butch Cat, Tom's rival. I could easily see her in that role, smugly trolling Pearl's attempts.
Yeah. Everything from the ruins and ships screamed that the old gem empire had a more rustic tone and used more stone.
I can understand that an advanced homeworld is covered with this shiny metal like material, but more and more flashbacks were also ladden with this shiny alloy technology. Which is bullshit and in the end undermines all the unique architecture and culture we were hinted at before.
The same reason shit like pic related happens: this show lacks visual consistency aside from aesthetics. Though this is a particularly bad case since the crew hasn't seemed to settle on what shape Amethyst's head in 5 seasons and a movie in. Sometimes it's a sphere, other times she has prominent cheeks like Steven and the Calarts meme, and sometimes she has a god forsaken muzzle that makes her look like an ape.
Remember when Rose Quartz used to have well defined hair before it become this huge fucking lump of matted fur and clumps of almost-curls?
The crewniverse are fucking hacks.
I guess it would be cool to see more planets conquered by homeworld to see what is up.
They stopped being used sometime after the war. That doesn't mean they weren't around for a long time beforehand.
Rebecca boarded that scene. It was also the first time we saw Rose, so naturally it has more detail. Why is SU the only show that gets flak for having different looking storyboard artists? Adventure time did the same thing.
Because the show presents itself as wanting to be taken seriously with its heavy themes and attempt at an overarching story and the attempts at wild takes and inconsistencies in character deigns detracts from that. Adventure Time, despite trying to do longer story lines, was at its heart a show about the episodic wacky adventures. The distinct boarder styles works better for it and other shows that don't try to be more than wacky 11 minute distractions from life. When Rebecca and the crew ask us to take the show and its plot seriously, I think its only fair that we ask they do the same with the art. Which is not to say wild takes shouldn't happen ever, but is consistent proportions really too much to ask for?
>mfw this reminds me of Perinaldo in the old days
What makes you think SU is supposed to be taken seriously as opposed to adventure time which is infamous for its deep philosophical episodes?
Birth of Stevidot
OTP
T
P
The way Rebecca talks about how important the themes and messages are, as well as how she talks about wanting to explore all the depth and facets of her characters like she does here 110096037.
More significantly it's how the show attempts to have its overarching narrative. Those are typically more associated with action shows, which are typically taken more seriously than 11 minute comedies. Adventure Time's occasional philosophical episodes are nice but they aren't the norm and you don't see the writers talking about how important they are. And as I previously mentioned Adventure Time doesn't embrace it's continuous narrative the way that StU does. StU at least has more than just the season premiere and the season finale dedicated to it.
fuck me, here's the theread
Yeah, her eyes
Technically, Peridot would have to read or scan a book on human female anatomy to get more than one hole m8.
Anyone still got the mega archive of all the episodes?
I'd settle for a flashback of Pearl throwing the jungle gym at his babysitter.
I love the expressions here. Also, artist?
is the same artist of that fan episode what the fuck
This feels like the scene where Luke pulls his saber on kid Kylo.
lesbians are just female incels
That made me genuinely laugh.
Yeah he's either drawing wholesome cute stuff or horror comics like the Steg one.
He just said he's going to draw a Spinel one and it's going to be worse than the Steg somehow.
Moar
Remember when we thought she landed in Canada?
>Similar to how amethyst drew on cholo aesthetics
You have to admit, it would fit like a glove.
peridot would have been better if the voice actor didnt overact louder and more grating the longer the show goes on.
same with amythest
youtube.com
Holy crap, I didn't noticed the similar art style until now
>He just said he's going to draw a Spinel one and it's going to be worse than the Steg somehow.
get fucking hyped
>they made her shorter and more nasally
>gave her anime shades and made her a fujoshit
What do you mean? She's even more of a tiny green chink than ever before. I don't think anymore is even possible.
please tell me this is an edit
Adding other sentient aliens would really complicate things. You'd have to rewrite the show from the start.
I believe the magical shit was Blue's work with Pink, the tech is Yellow's
Do any of you even know what cleavage is?
yeah dumb dumb it's the range of tendency for gems to break cleanly- jaspers have no cleavage.
Lets get back to the subject of Peridot please.
I miss Perdiot's Mega Man X look, and chalk fingers.
Peridot is perfect.
Change my mind.
No need. When you're right, you're right.
Of course we do!
Interesting, but like this user had said kind of ruins Change Your Mind
What is Alexandrite supposed to look like

holy shit kek
damn, her hair / head size changes so fucking much it is unreal, in fact pearl and lapis also have some weird ass proportions.
Anyone got a scan from the art book of those homeworld gems we've never seen in the show?
this is some quality shit
....Bump for more Peridot post.
creamfilled jelly donuts!
BM has a really good peridot and lapis.
but they tend to have, lets say, interesting anatomy at times, which takes away from the pic in my eyes
It's an official collab
dubs and quads for the green dorito.

such a shame she stopped drawing stevidot and bits of lapiven...her stuff was really good
>that was...something....wanna go again steven? hehe
>....yes
who made that and why did they stop?
look here>why did they stop?
dunno user, but it truly made me sad, she was openly a stevidot shipper and also made some lapiven too, fucking based
she deleted her tumblr and that's the last thing i know about her
>that looks interesting Steven! let's go upstairs and do that!!!
wack as fuck brother
They ruined a cool character
Would you know the source artist of this? , and is there a a smaller version of this Peridot in the super exso suite The second one is too large to post here.
fuck this is amazing, im getting feels of sadness and nostalgia
i know she's not here but here i go just want to vent for a bit:
Sketch, thank you for all the amazing fanart and for letting me know i wasnt alone in my ships, i sincerely hope your problems are over and right now you are good and well
Godspeed

You only like Peridot because she's never fused
plenty other characters have never fused user.
This thread is literally just OP making a joke about how her eyes look in that particular image and everyone is taking it seriously.
just another peridotpostingthread
Just like go intended
wat

Peridot!
have you ever noticed how weird is to go to sleep?
The whole body just goes down for hours
makes sense
She'll fuse when she's ready
cursed gif

Pearl can permafuse with Amethyst for all I care
Remember how Pearl was thirsty for that FUSION?
as said. Glad to see other people enjoy his stuff too. I wish I backed his gemstuff up before tumblr nuked it
you're supposed to be reading "uoy llik gnikcuf ot gniog m'i" because the font is intentionally disruptive for recognizing which circles in which letters matter.
team unused
Funny how people expected Jasper to be part of team underused
>im going to fucking kill you
Jasper is team non-existent outside their arc :^)))
>season 2 is about Peridot
>season 3 is about Lapis and Jasper
>lol let's do nothing with them from then on
>woah, how did we run out of time? We only wasted a full third of the show.
It's quite annoying that they were just like "we turned these duders (or not, as for Jasper), now we just use them for comic relief and make problems" use them like gems? Hellooo? Use their expertise, use them to make the townie episodes more interesting than "hurr-durr ronaldo is a conspiracist thats actually right" and "most townies are just there for comic relief". Use them for history and lore on things, knowledge about homeworld. ANYTHING. Big mad.
Maybe Little Homeworld is evidence that they're actually going to do a bit more of that from now on.
I do hope so
They're not.
The show's never been about that.
its about steven unibrow, I know. But the coastal germs og crew gets alot of spotlight aswell, so i don't know brother. And I can hope what I want, as you can be a wanker as you want.
>"The shows never been about the gems."
I like the fact that the gems were embracing art and agriculture though
I don't see how Homeworld being a tech-center contradicts the aesthetic the Diamonds have on other planets.
Earth was Pink's colony and Blue seemed very invested in Earth as well, so it stands to reason that their combined aesthetics are what makes Earth's ruins so different. Just look at Blue Diamond's bathing chamber. Crafted from stone and very artistic (for Homeworld standards anyway).
But Homeworld is the galactic capital of gems. It should very well be a sci-fi metropolis.
Kinda autistic.
where can I find the lewds?
I thought Blue Diamond only showed up to earth looking for Pink D's murderer?
Blue went to Earth with members of her court to investigate rumors of a rebellion. This is not something I feel Yellow would do. Blue has a soft spot for Pink and she likely tried her best to assist Pink.
But if Pink never had a colony before, it would make sense that Yellow and Blue teach her a thing or two first.
nowhere. Might be able to find a couple skimming his o11 and ooo11 tumblr accounts. His Viscous tumblr does have lewds, but not from SU
Good point...
I'd grab Stevonnie leg
That's a perfect Connie
It's nice to know what Connie's and Steven's child will look like.
>Big Trouble in Little Homeworld
Kevin tries to catch a little gem tail and ends up in a bizarre feud
Yeah I got that comic
nice butt
Yellow had the new chamber with the trinity symbol, Blue was the original chamber they all played in
Pink's legs do have an older control mechanism I believe though
That's the way I like Lapis....alone and suffering.
