I've noticed that it seems to be a huge thing on tumblr lately.

I love the show, but I admit I haven't watched much episodes of it. Pearl is my favourite.

I find Steven himself annoying, but the show is rather interesting. Not like crazy obsessed, but still better than some of the crap on CN atm.

That plot twist with Garnet being a fusion 24/7, like oh holy ****.

i personally love how steven, although it's obvious he has a low IQ, isn't as stupid as people think he is and actually does/says stuff that are very memorable (I also love how he really looks up to the three crystal gems, and how the crystal gems treat him like their son)

like when i first saw a trailer for the show my first impression on steven was that he's going to be literally as dumb as billy in billy and mandy, but he really surprised me.

I love Steven Universe. It's one of the few good shows on Cartoon Network at the moment.
I love all three of the Crystal Gems, I can't pick a favourite because I like all of them equally lol. I also really like Steven too.

Regular Show is a bit debatable... I find the "Oooooooooo" catch phrase so ****ing annoying to the point I have to mute the TV anytime I hear a commercial with it.

Agreed on Nickelodeon. Disney itself hasn't had anything good in awhile either, though DisneyXD is the better one with Gravity Falls, Star Wars Rebels, Wander, & Star vs the Forces of Evil to make it worth watching.

True. The only reason I kept on watching Nick was for TLA repeats and TLoK. I would watch it for old show repeats too if they weren't on at midnight. Oh and I also watch it for the occasional Drake and Josh repeats (which are rare now)

Although I'm pretty sure Nick moved TLoK to online or something eventually.

I have seen the light. After giving the show another chance, I no longer find the characters annoying, like at all... okay apart from Amethyst being occasionally super obnoxious, but it's a minor flaw in a fantastic and beautiful show.
Favourite gem is definitely Pearl.

Amethyst was my favourite at first when I watched the first few episodes, then it changed to Pearl. But goddammit I'm really liking Garnet too, especially after Jailbreak, and I'm also liking Amethyst again too after we learned more about her.

screw it i like all three gems. they're all great.

tbh i actually thought amethyst's personality was unexpected, since i never saw her real personality in the trailers i saw before starting the show. i actually expected her to be like a more toned down version of pearl and also more mature lol, like a mixture of garnet and pearl.

I believe there's currently 9. They're pretty good, mainly comedy based, but the comedy itself keeps in line with the show's, so s'all good.

Also, review.

So how about that Steven Universe huh? In case you haven't seen it yet, or are one of those people that hates modern cartoons because they weren't made when you were growing up specifically, Steven Universe is a new-ish, Cartoon Network series created by Rebecca Sugar, who you may remember from writing many emotional episodes and songs from Adventure Time, like the song and episode 'I Remember You' from Season 4. This is my first time reviewing not only an animated TV show, but the first non-video game piece of media I've reviewed ever, so let me know what you think and how I can improve. Yeah, I'm really not feeling those VG reviews right now, I'll get back to them one day, but not today.

Steven Universe is a cartoon about a boy who is born half gem (magic), and half human, and he is protected and taken care of by three other magical aliens known as the Crystal Gems. The show may seem simple at first glance and sound like it can do what it damn well pleases as logic goes out the window when we talk about magical stuff, right? Wrong, Steven Universe and everything about it (aside from the Uncle Grandpa crossover episode) stays set in it's own canon rules of reality, sure there's alot to take in, but at point does it seem like it's going too over the top with it's own logic, or make you go: Pffft, ONLY IN A CARTOON AMIRIGHT!? The show also gets very complex and story-driven near the later episodes in Season 1, but what I love about this is that it doesn't let the story-driven elements take over, or let the comedy and non-serious nature take over, it's a perfect balance of two which is something I rarely see in shows on Cartoon Network. You'll get more and more emotionally attached to the characters, story and locations as you get more and more into the show to the point were you'll just have to binge out and marathon the darn thing just to see more inclusions to various story-arcs. I also adore the fact that each and every episode adds to a character's personality or to the story even if it's in a small way, no episode slot is wasted, no filler here whatsoever.

So how are these characters? Well first we have Steven, a naive, fun-loving, peace-keeping, and idealistic boy who was brought into this world by his mother, a former Crystal Gem, Rose Quartz giving up her physical form and giving her gem to Steven. I love this little guy, he's definitely the comic-relief character, just as likeable as early Spongebob and gets sad over the fact that snakes don't have arms. Surprisingly he's the voice of reason and the peace keeper among the gems, he contradicts their usually violent nature and it works really well. It's also fun seeing all the abilities he learns throughout the series, but I won't spoil any of it for you. Then there's the three women of the group, Garnet the quiet, cool one of the group, Amethyst the tom-boy rough-houser of the group that usually does what she wants when she wants, and Pearl is the over-protective, kinda OCD one of the group. They all interact so well and feel all very different from one another, it's great, I couldn't have asked for a better main cast. Secondary characters include Steven's friend Connie, whom is awesome, his father Greg, whom is awesome, the local shopkeepers Lars and Sadie, whom are awesome too. Do you see where I'm going with this? As I said previously all of these characters have their faults but that's what makes them human, or gems, or half-gem half-human little boys. The show embraces these faults and makes them that more enjoyable of character. None of them are one-dimensional either, they all have at least some personality to them even if it's not immediately apparent.

The artstlye is beautiful with simple shapes combined to make truly breath-taking results. The characters expressions always convey emotion very well, Rebecca Sugar really knows what she's doing, she's the one that drew that Ed, Edd n Eddy yaoi you know. The music is also very nice and relaxing when it wants to be, and dramatic and intense when it wants to be too. It seems to usually be either classical piano or chiptune, two very awesome things indeed. The show also has alot of musical numbers, and there's not a single song that I didn't find charming. Alot of people complain with the 11 minute time limit per episode, but I think it works fine. The never felt rushed and when they need a little extra time, they just make a two-parter, I don't really see what's wrong with this.

Steven Universe is still currently on-going and is 2 seasons and 56 episodes long as of the time this review is written, of which I have seen all, and look forward to what the show has up its sleeve next. Rebecca and the crewniverse have all got it good right now, and to think, I used to think this show was over-emotional and the characters were annoying. Oh how times have changed. I'm not going to give the show a rating as I want my thoughts to speak for themselves, but I'll just state again that I think very highly of this show and it's definitely in my Top 10 Shows as of the moment. All I wanna do it see you turn into a movie, into a mooovie, all I wanna be is the one who gets to see an SU movie. Also dude, that Uncle Grandpa crossover's ending, if you've been a fan of Cartoon Network for a while you'll love it. Steven Universe, a perfect blend of charm, comedy and emotion. Believe in Steven, folks.

Wrong.



It's a series of shorts roughly 1 minute long that doesn't have any true plot or story and instead just has them acting stupid with atrocious grammar that is made as an advertisement to sell the Mixels toys without even being clear in what it is. It seriously took me a few weeks to find out Mixels were a toy-line after it first started playing as the commercials for it were so unclear.

It may be a bit longer than the average one, but it is still a glorified commercial.
