When I first saw a commercial for this show, I was SO convinced it would be just another bad comedy CN show like Uncle Grandpa and Teen Titans Go. (Seriously, CN needs to stop making those) I didn't think I could ever picture myself watching it, and from what I hear the advertising for it in general sucks. But then I heard people were praising it up the wazoo, but I still wasn't convinced. THEN one of my favorite internet critics, The Cartoon Hero, did a review on it and was praising it. That prompted me to check it out. Suffice to say, I was not only pleasantly surprised, but blown away. The animation is beautiful! The characters are three-dimensional and great! The story is great and it isn't afraid to go dark! Where has this show been all my life?! I've seen up to episodes 25 and 26, where they introduced Lapis Lazuli. Any fans here?! Because I've converted into an SU fan!

I'm a fan of the show. Right now I'm on the part in Season 2 when Amethyst regenerates after fighting Slinker.
You're right on the ball about the show. It's not perfect (nothing is) but it's not afraid to go to some dark places, but there's an overlapping sweetness and sincerity that people of all ages can relate too. When Cartoon Network wants to do something good it knocks it out of the park. If only they would stop hyping Teen Titans GO over their better shows. |

I found out about the show a month ago and watched all episodes available in 2 days. Not too impressive since the episodes aren't very long, but even for me that's unusual, I get satisfied with shows rather quick even if they are good and need breaks before I continue.
It's a great show for multiple reasons and I love it. |

Was convinced to give the show a go and ended up loving it. It has such a brilliant way of setting up future storylines and then always making sure to actually return to them at some point, while at the same time only giving away enough to keep you hooked in the meantime. My only real issue with it is that the 15 minute episode format really killed the The Return and Jailbreak. They were set up to be something really epic and while they were still fantastic, they breezed through so fast it felt like not that much ended up actually happening.
Also, was really surprised the Uncle Grandpa crossover was as good as it was. Haven't laughed like that at an episode of something in a long time.

Love this show so much. Honestly my favorite modern day cartoon. It even beats out Adventure Time for me- I lost interest in that show and got hooked on Steven Universe. Stronger than You is currently the only cartoon based song on my phone XD

*dusts thread off* Hello. Love SU. Don't much care for Steven himself, he's too quirky for myrastes, but I absolutely love Garnet and Amethyst. And I just wanted to say that I love the fusion dances. But am I the only one that thinks they are too sensual at times? Maybe not too sensual as I'm trying to convey, but they do seem to get rather intimate, and I know they say it is such an event.

...Wha? I'm just going to keep my ears and eyes away from that clip until I see it on TV.
