Small detail I love: after Pearl and Volleyball unfuse, we don't see Volleyball's cracked eye. They deliberately hid it to keep it vague if she had 'recovered' or not. Even in later episodes where Volleyball appears as a background character, they ALWAYS go the extra mile to keep her eye hidden
Why would they do that though? To me it just seems like the writers are unsure what to do with it
@@xnortheast1106 I disagree. I think it’s interesting to leave that detail up to interpretation. Some wounds heal but will always be permanent, that’s how it is. Some wounds heal AND FADE, that’s ALSO how it is.
*Is it me who actually got kinda annoyed at that?*
Like , it felt like Volleyball healing her eye was such a crucial thing and for them to just make it become like a “haha , we’ll make sure you’ll never know” joke just made me mad.
@@Kaybri0526 I fully agree with you.
@@xempororhxppyx similarly, I just felt like they should’ve shown that it was still there. like, the key moment triggering their fusion was Pearl going “I didn’t” in regards to Volleyball asking her how she moved on, so I feel like that sentiment should probably be mirrored in Volleyball’s scar
26:33 Interesting detail: Grass, seafood, and nuts are the 3 most common allergies in humans. So Bluebird put that meal together hoping to give Steven an allergic reaction
Lmao
why is that like actually a good plan
Flame palt@ lol

The really interesting thing about Pink / Rose is that you get to see her character development backwards. You hear about her being amazing but honestly her biggest achievement was her ability to change. She had a temper, she had tantrums, she had a scream that could crack walls, but when Pearl (our Pearl) meets her she's gentle and has a soothing voice. It shows she regrets what happened with her original Pearl so she avoids doing it again. She's bratty and entitled at the beginning but she matures into somoene who cares about others. Moreover in Future you start to see Steven showing that temper, and that destructive power, and thinking he's a monster because he thinks Pink was a monster, when in reality she was a bad person who actively made efforts to change into a better one. And even though we were told she was this perfect shining beacon, she never was. So people think that seeing her flaws suddenly makes her evil.
honestly, people seeing her as a bad character is understandable since we're seeing her development backwards, so at the end we only see consequences of her actions. no one ever mentions how she grew up and got affected by that
Yeah she definitely got WAY better after becoming rose.
That's the idea Pink had the same toxic traits as the other diamonds and became Rose to overcome them the problem was due to her dying the Pink Diamond past never got resolved and only was buried
@@caoinhnamkhanh2795 yes the fact that she grew up in what was essentially a toxic situation and still managed to find empathy is kind of amazing
She (Pink) changed and grew. But could only influence and truly embrace those changes to make things better by being a literally whole new person (Rose Quartz).
I agree heavily about Rose. I think she was a good person in the end, I believe that she really did change. But she def did awful things to people in the past.
It doesn't help that we're shown Rose's development essentially in reverse. Starting with her being this 'perfect' figure, before we're gradually shown her flaws and her past until it essentially consumes her character. Watching it presented in reverse makes it feel like she's "falling to the Dark Side", so to speak.
@@MattTOB618 Fr having to see her bad moments towards the end of the show will have a longer lasting impression on people
Is because pink diamond try to hurt her pearl with destructive power to crack his eye so her new pearl is here, pink pearl has returned to white is because pink diamond is tired of asking yellow and blue returns to white and pink pearl turn to white pearl so she's not pink diamonds pearl anymore, pink diamond has many amethyst, rose quartz is amethyst too but she had enough and go next place and has a sword and shattered pink diamond so she's leaving with diamonds, rose quartz was pearl that shattered pink diamond, now rose is here shattered or poof those gem but there is Ruby and sapphire that actually fuse, turn to garnet but is different, when they fuse, they turn to cotton candy garnet and rose and Greg are having a song with gems, pearl is jealous that rose was with Greg and pearl came here to rose to have a fusion called rainbow quartz
Ok guys my hand are tired but I'll do tomorrow
I feel like thats fair but you can't overlook there's a lot of bad things she did that she also never fixed. abandoning spinel, bubbling away bismuth, etc
The thing about Rose that trips people up is that we see her character progression backwards. We see her as this great person who gets worse and worse the more you learn about her in the past. But it's not really fair to judge someone based on what they were like when they were basically a teenager. Even at the end, she did some selfish things and made mistakes, but she very clearly felt guilty about who she had been.
Remember what Greg said about how she always felt like she had to confess things she'd done to him, but he didn't care about that. He loved who she was, a kind and loving person who saw the best in everyone around her. It wasn't fair the way she left everyone who was unhealthily dependent on her, but in the end, it was actually the best for everyone. Greg is the only one who had a real, healthy relationship with her.
While I’m here just gonna give some recommendations anyway, Amphibia and Owl House are two good series to watch that are kinda like this
I feel like she would especially like toh and amphibia 💔☹️
I like these options here☝️✨
@@ratbaby1225 I know me too!! Like idk why but I feel like she would Love amphibia 💁♀️
Let us all have 5 seconds of silence for Greg's hair. May it find better life in the next world, than it did in this one.
Idk why Steven can't just kiss his dad on his head to make him not bald anymore at least, he did it with Connie's eyes
@@willspikes One thing is to heal someone's vision and other thing is to make someone's hear grow
@@willspikes I think he can only heal injuries? Maybe Connie’s eyes were a result of something not natural, while Greg’s hair is due to aging which is natural.
ngl i actually felt really bad for him lmao imagine how long it took for him to grow it
If there’s anything the whole fandom would say when watching this season was “Therapy”😂
That and memeing on the intro and changing the lyrics.
"WeeEEEEEEE AAAARE IN FEAAAAAAAR
HERE WE ARE IN FEAR AND IT'S AAAAAAAAA
I CAN'T
I CAN'T
I CAN'T
I CAN'T
STEVEN UNIVERSE FEAR HERE WE ARE
KHXLJGXLIGXPGUXOU" (ty MKatwood for this lovely iconic edit lol)
@@eaglefan2569 lmao yessssss I remember that💀
and "FEAR" aaaaa good times
Greg and Pearl were like "nope, no emotional trauma today"
Which us understandable knowing them..
I'm glad you caught the fact that they showed us the exact kind of tantrums Pink threw. It establishes important context- that Pink wasn't physically abusive towards her pearl, it was truly an accident that was a result of her emotions getting the best of her. Moreover, that incident was so impactful that it changed Pink's personality. She became more secretive and reined in her emotions because she didn't want to hurt anyone else close to her, but that didn't work either, as keeping secrets ultimately lead to the gems being corrupted. Pink's behavior though is a direct result of how the diamonds raised her. She was taught that as a diamond, she was meant to be worshipped because she was perfect, but the other diamonds treated her like she was broken, flawed, and off color. Essentially a stain on the diamond authority, and she felt that every day she was on homeworld. As a side note, Rose didn't have Steven to escape her problems -there'd been no sign of homeworld activity on the planet for several thousand years and she didn't know about the cluster. She had Steven because Steven would be capable of the one thing she admired so much about humanity - the ability to grow and change. It's a sore spot for her because she had to learn to grow on her own, as gems don't age and aren't really capable of changing like humans do, and her immaturity was what the other diamonds made her feel miserable about all the time. But Steven would possess these traits naturally and would be far better than she would ever be capable of being. She only wanted the best for him, despite all the shit that oddly happened 12 years after her death.
According to “Steven universe canon” when a gem is made, the gems made are like hundreds of little mirrors, made to reflect their creator in more ways than one.
@fan yilipe it’s a thing that needs observation, future episode 6 - all 3 rose quarts represent a different side to Pink, the one who is very lax is how chill Pink was about the discovery of Earth, the energetic one is how she was very energetic and joyful she was about everything, and the one that looks exactly like her is rebellious and can read the room, symbolic of how her sense of justice prevailed over her status as a diamond
Pink Diamond so powerful that here simply being upset cracked the reality of how something appeared in the universe. That’s literally like if someone could scream at you and the coding of you DNA was permanently scrambled from the sheer will power. She put her soul into that scream. We have to keep in mind though that Pink was actually really sweet and playful and all the damage she caused mostly stemmed from the negative effects her older siblings had on her. She literally had no idea what consequences were beside being patronized a pampered everyday. People can barely hand 5 minutes of that let alone thousands of years. Anybody would easily have a tantrum or two or even not understand the consequences of their actions when they finally get what they want. She wasn’t necessarily raised by understanding beings. Everything negative about rose in my opinion I just attribute to White Diamond’s over all bad influence on gem kind. Even the other two diamonds said they only were the way they were to make white happy because if they didn’t she could make them. It’s literally her ability. When you have a goal to reach and you wield so much power even people who have good intentions will trigger unfavorable outcomes just by the nature of wielding so much at once.
Her powers are so scary. All the diamonds powers are scary..
F for Greg’s hair. Forget Rose/Pink, this got me crying.
F
F in the chat for that glorious mane 😭
F cuz it really messed me up
F
F
What people keep forgetting when watching the reverse character development of Rose Quartz is that she is everything that White Diamond purged of her flaws of immaturity, naivete, etc, everything that encapsulates being a very young child. Then you take that and put it into the caste system where gems are not only just servants but some are literal tools to be used as viewers forget they aren't human and are a completely different species. They are a closer to programmed machines that work on mostly their programmed instincts. That's what makes the whole journey of PD and other gems suppose to be impactful in that they did change from these innate programming and again, "change" is the biggest development for PD but that also doesn't mean all prior flaws disappear either.
"Anyone with a bowl cut is evil"
... Apologize to Rock Lee, Metal Lee and Might Guy!!!
Pink did grow up at the end during her time with Greg. But during that time Pink/Rose had no way to get back to Spinel or Volleyball to fix things and I think she was a bit afraid to do so.
Afraid in a way where she would get reminded of her time as pink diamond
I don’t see enough people reacting to Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts! Kipo reminds me of Steven. You don’t have to do a full reaction if you wanna, but it’s still a great show!
yeooo i been wantin somebody to react to dat too . that show is hella slept on
I love that show
Kipo is great stuff.
(Also She-Ra, Gravity Falls, The Owl House)
I agree! REACTION TO KIPO AND THE AGE OF WONDERBEASTS IS A MUST
Kipo is BRILLIANT.
2:47 I love that they made Connie a reference to the "Lo-Fi stream girl", down to even flipping the page!
Just a little FYI: Smokey goes by They/Them.
Most of Stevens Fusions go at least partly by they/them -> Rainbow 2.0 (He/They), Sunstone (She/They), Stevonnie (They/Them).
The only exception is Steg who goes by He/Him :)
f for gregs hair. you will be remembered
Worth remembering with RQ, we saw her character development in reverse order. It looks like negative character development, but because we're learning more and more about her previous ways as time goes on. All of these facets of her personality are true, but it's worth remembering she improved over time: we just learned more about her as the show advanced.
The music track for the Peal fusion is called "Prince Pearl", which along with her design is a reference to Revolutionary Girl Utena.
Here we go again…I tried to avoid watching Future again bc I literally went through the same things Steven did when this was coming out..
5:44 Also there’s a form for that called Super Saiyan Rosé(my favorite!)
So your mom is a big assed gem?
Steven Universe Futue really made me love Steven way more than I knew I could. I just relate to his struggle so much and this entire spinoff hit way too close to home.
SAME. Teen Steven is so fucking good.
absolutely same!
@@nuibaba280technically
he was always a teen
his half gem kept him from being a real teen
F for poor Greg’s hair. 😞🙏
Connie the Lofi girl!
Thank you for the two likes :)
You should watch the owl house next! It's so good
Still bothers me that we just gloss over white diamond mind controlling pink pearl for 8000 years to focus on how awful pink is. They have such a weird grudge with her
Yeah that's cringe
I never noticed Aquamarina didn't have her headband/weapon anymore
I highly recommend My Little Pony. You’ll love it more than you think.
Krysta, just letting you know there's like 11 SU shorts. 7 "micro-episodes", 3 of the gem classroom shorts and the extended intro. Worth a reaction if you feel like capping it off. You can find most of those in the Cartoon Network YT channel.
If you wanna react to a show not many have done, then Onyx Equinox is an option. It's an animated series made by Crunchyroll set in Prehispanic Mesoamerica, with the Aztec, Maya, etc. I do writeups on that stuff, and help history and archeology channels with content on it, and it's EASILY the most authentic and well researched I've seen the subject handled. (and i'd be happy to give input/resources about it, if you're curious)
Interesting fact: in episode 3, in pretty sure his mom's tape was not actually in the TV. I'm pretty sure that was his powers. Both steven and rose have effected technology in the past when rose messed up Greg's music thing (I feel dumb for not remembering what it's called) after he tries to fuse with her and yells at her, and steven messed up the TV in the little butler episode in season 1
OwlHouse, ADVENTURE TIME PLS, Regular show, Gravity falls, Star vs the forces of evil. Those are some good ones i think you would love!!! :)
Oh man I love these episodes they lay so much groundwork for the themes of the series.
I know you've already mostly decided on what you're watching next but just in case one vote makes a difference, Infinity Train is really the only modern kids show I've enjoyed as much as Steven Universe (though Gravity Falls is great too, and definitely more popular).
Steven should’ve left Jasper alone. She obviously didn’t want to be bothered and was fine where she was. I would’ve been glad she wasn’t trying to kill anyone or force any fusions🤷🏾♂️.
Also I always forget that Pink chose to look like the Quartzes. An interesting turn of events when you think about how she stole their form to start a war, condemning the rest😭.
Finally, i have been waiting to see your reaction, as i love these episodes!
Praying the next show is Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated!
When I first watch Steven universe the movie afterwards I was really upset with Rose and I just hated her. But after some reflection I realized that she changed, when she first starts out she has all those temper tantrum‘s she hurts her pearl and leaves spinel out in the garden. But then she got a new pearl and started changing her morals and how she acted. I assume that she realized what she did to volleyball, reflected and I like to believe that that’s when she decided she was going to change.
Exactly, this is what most people immediately forget when talking about rose. Pretty much everyone she hurt besides Pearl she hurt before she even DISCOVERED humanity- and therefore, before she became enlightened.
i just realized that the end scene is foreshadowing
The grass, shellfish, and peanut butter... common allergens LOL
YESSSS LETS GET INTO THE TRAUMA
Anyone can change. They just hav to be open to it.
-Probably someone famous
WHY HAVEN'T I FOUND THIS CHANNEL SOONER 😭😭😭😭😭😭
its so crazy that youve gotten here so fast!! I hope you enjoy everything SUF brings you!!
I love that the bathroom has become like, the panic/war room of the house. XP
For me SUF is my fav but not a big fan of the ending u will see what I mean when u reach there
and a recommend Adventure Time or Gravity Falls or Regular show
Everone in this show desperately needs therapy.
Jasper is a person that her toxic traits have defined her for so long she enjoys them and unfortunately some people are like that
I actually LOVE how we learned Pink/Rose’s character arc in reverse
We started learning about how she healed people who were hurt and did the right thing
And then we learned about her OLD destructive and selfish nature
Rose was not naturally empathetic, which lead to the 'tornado' you describe. She never considered how her actions affected others, she was almost incapable of that level of foresight. But I think her value comes in how she _tried_ to change regardless, tried to be a good person and even if she didn't quite succeed she still did a lot of good. She didn't have the emotional maturity to handle the amount of power she had until she had already done awful, awful things. I like to hope that eventually Steven will have a smaller picture of her around, once he's recovered and gained enough distance to see both the good and the bad.
One thing that's important to note - Rose was so guilty and horrified over what she did to Pink Pearl that she _never used her destructive powers again._ Not even when it might have helped the rebellion. She can't have, because Pearl never knew about it, to the extent she couldn't believe she was capable. I think Rose overcorrected to hiding everything because she didn't trust herself to be open and honest anymore. It's a small thing. But it's a commitment.
Her "trying to change" doesn't mean much when her actions still led to the deaths of countless gems in a pointless war that she started. I say pointless because while earth Is important to *us* it's very insignificant on a universal scale. Pink diamond didn't care about all of the other planets with life that the diamonds colonized during the thousands of years that she was with them. She just took a liking to earth and decided she wanted to protect it. Even then, she put earth in the crossfire by having a war on it! All of the diamonds are garbage because they come from white diamond, who is a textbook dictator. I just feel like the diamonds in general got let off way too easy for all of the atrocious things they've done to their own species and to others.
The overcorrecting isn't a "small" thing, it's huge, because it shows that she didn't change for the better she just *changed*. Now she's lying to everyone closest to her about her past, and more importantly, she never freed pearl from the order she had made to her in order to keep up her lie. She didn't even trust the gems that would lay down their lives for a planet that they weren't sure about. Pearl was only freed by Steven, and he shouldn't have had to experience that trauma just to clean up her mess. She also bubbled bismuth simply because she disagreed with her methods in a WAR. she wanted to have her cake and eat it too. She started a war but didn't want to kill, so she punished the people protecting her that genuinely wanted to be free, not prolong the issue.
@@MadLover4690 Couple of things.
1. While it is only word of god and not stated in the show itself, the Diamonds had never encountered sentient life before earth. So Pink just keeping a few as pets is almost understandable.
2. The central theme of the show is restorative justice, doing what you can to fix what you've done. So the point behind Pink/Rose was that she was doing her best to change for the better, whether or not she succeeded is rather beside the point. The point is that there's no point of no return, you can always decide to try and do better and trying is worthwhile in itself so long as it's earnest.
3. 'Killing' isn't just death in this universe. It's eternal torture. It's quite a different thing. Bubbling gems away pretty much accomplishes much the same thing, even if there is a risk of their being rescued it definitely outweighs the moral and psychological weight of condemning thousands to a fractured existence.
4. I agree that redemption happened too quickly for the Diamonds, but I don't think that had much to do with the creative team and more what they were given to work with.
@@KaiseaWings your first point is irrelevant. Don't bring religion into a fictional universe without one, there is no "god" in this show. Also, they have technology capable of pumping something that kills all life (think spinel), and peridot even told Steven that the diamonds would go to planets to take all of their resources to make kindergartens for more soldiers. Sentient life doesn't need to be human-like, it would make sense that pink diamond would be interested in keeping them as pets, just like she treated Greg like one for a while before she "changed".
You also didn't have a comment on the pearl issue, or the lying to people that are willing to die for you. Bubbling really isn't that much different from being in a state of purgatory. When you think about it, they're not technically living beings, they're literally made out of inorganic material, so I agree that "death" doesn't mean much to them, they'd just be stuck in whatever form they're in. Still, because of that, I would say being forced to be in a bubble for thousands of years while your friends are destroyed outside (and you don't even know it) is just as cruel of a fate to have.
Also, the creative team *is* responsible for how the story goes, what are you talking about? Rebecca and the other storyboard artists are literally in charge of the story. Were the animators responsible? No. They were given multiple seasons by CN to tell their story, and they wasted more time on onion and *Ronaldo* than the actual true antagonists of the show! They wasted so much time and took so many hiatus just to give us more filler. Jasper has more development (as a villain that isn't magically a friend) than any of the diamonds have. And that's likely because they were basing her character arc off of Vegeta.
Even with the steven universe movie, spinel points out that she has been abandoned for thousands of years which, is not something that one little song from steven can change. Then of course that one song is all it takes to change her completely, and by future it's like she has a complete character change, back to her original annoying self. The creators really mess up a lot of these big character's development.
21:21
"What did Pink get you?"
"TRAUMA."
Im dead 💀💀
We all know the real reason pearl wanted to go to the bathroom after seeing tht rose quartz 😏
A recommendation I have that you’d probably like is adventure time or regular show
Rip Gregs hair.. Ive been bawling my eyes out ever since..the saddest death in the entire show 😔
#StevenUniverseFutureSundays it was a powerful journey of these 5 episodes and the reaction was amazing 😁 some parts might cause a brow raise moment but get you hooked. Also can we talk about the “chest” in Lion’s mane being open? It was closed during SU younger years and why is it open now? With that said, I dig Connie Easter egg being Lofi girl at episode 1. Seems cute and chill 😌
That rose quartz scene made my stomach turn
Honestly I love this show so much. They did a great job with this epilogue sorta thing
The plate of food Bluebird was trying to feed to Steven was all stuff humans are commonly allergic to. Lol grass, peanut butter and clams.
She was trying to kill him still.
Infinity Train please, that underrated series needs more eyes on it.
Yes
@KristolagyReacts after Pink cracked her Pearl "Volleyball", white diamond took mind control over that pearl and the other diamonds replaced her with Spinel and a new pearl (our pearl).
you should react to Gravity Falls after Steven Universe it’s an amazing show
Fun fact the voice of cherry quartz is the same as jasper :3
F for Greg’s hair. R.I.P
Three more until we close the chapter on this show...
Y'all ready
Please watch total drama island and all the subsequent seasons
Ok this is long but: Like other people have pointed out: we see Rose’s character development in REVERSE.
So many people don’t acknowledge this about her! It’s like the entire fandom has just done this complete 180 and decided that she was this mega evil narcissistic person Who maliciously did all of these bad things to these gems and people. In reality, it was almost like she was a child who grew up.
When she was very young, 8-10 thousand years ago, she was infantilized by the other diamonds who never allowed her to express herself, which resulted in her throwing these huge tantrum‘s and accidentally hurting the people that she loved, like Volleyball. I think that’s why in her early relationship with pearl, she’s very reluctant, and doesn’t really seem to understand how to speak to her. It’s because Volleyball, who was her best friend, was taken by White diamond and horribly injured by her after she threw a tantrum.
Then with pearl, it’s almost like she has to learn how to be a friend again, and we see her grow into a person who can rectify those past mistakes and learn from them. She CHANGED.
The same thing happened with Spinel. I have to assume that the whole thing with spinel happened around the time that she first got Pearl, or maybe even before she got Pearl, as the first time we see them associate, is after she’s already gotten the earth, and when the first quartz gems are already going to emerge (which I imagine must take some time!). So there, we see Rose act very selfishly and abandon Spinel- but Spinel was also symbolic of the ways in which the diamonds tried to infantilize her. She was almost like a baby toy, when Rose was an adolescent desperately trying to remove herself from being a baby. She acted really callously towards other gems.
But then later on, after she forms the crystal gems with Pearl, she wants to continue that callous treatment towards other gems (specifically, it seems, elite gems, because she doesn’t have an issue with the Quartzes), but then sees Garnet’s fusion and realizes that everything isn’t about just humans, but also her own kind. She learns to be empathetic about the experiences of all other people, because through Garnet she realizes that any gem has the potential to be different than what they were made to be.
So then, like Sapphire says, she follows them. She lets the other crystal gems lead her to the right thing. She led to this whole Rebellion believing that they would win, and that humans and gems would be able to live in harmony, and maybe even one day bring the diamond authority to an end.
But, contrary to what you said, there aren’t zero consequences for this. There was a huge consequence. Almost all of her friends, thousands of crystal gems, were shattered or corrupted. She was only able to save Garnet, Pearl, and Bismuth.
But despite all of this, it’s still lived with Rose, and even though she had made all of these efforts to change into a good person, she still couldn’t escape that past. Because even though she had changed, she didn’t really have the ability to be redeemed as herself. She was always either evil, or perfect. She saw herself as a bad person, who was desperately trying to change- which is why Love Like You is from her perspective. So, in creating Steven, I think that she hoped that she could replace herself with someone who could always change, and who could always be the best of her. In the end, she wasn’t selfish. I don’t think that she thought that Steven would ever have to face the consequences of her actions. I think she just wanted him to exist and live and be happy.
If we ever do get another entry in Steven universe- a movie, or another spin off season- I really hope we get one where we can see Steven facing this truth, and learning more about himself and his background. I think that we left it really unsettled at the end of future with how he felt about his parents, and in a way that I think is really unfair to both of them. At the point where the show ended, I don’t think that he was able to truly understand what it was like to grow up as pink diamond or Greg DeMayo. I’d love to see a spin off where Steven gets to meet his grandparents, or spend more time with the diamonds. Or maybe even to see more from Rose’s perspective.
I hate this ignorant take that Rose fucked up everything, got prego n dipped, when she saved all of mankind on Earth n set the goal in motion for Gems to be Liberated. She's not evil, she's a complex, flawed character designed to be that way.
Spot on, I think a lot of people forget that Homeworld didn't bother Earth for a good 5-6000 years as well. I honestly don't think Rose believed they'd come back at all by the time she met Greg, the only issues the Crystal Gems faced were corrupted gems.
I think Pink/Rose did more good then bad
the owl house sundays has a nice ring to it!
When the series ends you should react to the pilot
I would like to see her play the games too. Or at least the second one since it’s on PC and consoles. Though it will spoil the first.
0:38 I saw a lot of suggestion so I'm guessing ur next sunday show reaction is one of this BC I saw a lot of people commented this 0:53 yeah like she said and I put some prediction names for what shes going to call the Sunday show reaction
Owl house - owl Sunday lol
Amphibia - amphibia Sunday?
Star vtfoe - star butterfly Sunday
adventure time - Sunday adventure lol
But if its not one of this probably Ben 10 , miraculous and other things I saw
Lol Sunday adventure
Yesss! Steven universe future! I can’t wait until 16 cuz that’s when Steven goes to therapy
Pearls: Go through a fashion mal which exists to style ur personal slave
Krys: Aww so cute
haha
I love Steven Universe so much. I can't wait too see what you watch next. 👽💚
Laramar likes the screams of joy. But she can’t tell the difference from joy and terror.
love how ruby and aquamarine attacked steven but he tried to be friends with them (cause he's steven), but now they came back fused acting friendly, he's all "DA FACK, THEY CRAZY, THEY BITCHES WITH ME", like none of the other gems he's friends with ever tried to kill him too before being converted.
Yes, i hate the fact that he's right
can u please react to the owl house???
06:32 "Can they breathe in there, Steven?" Steven survived in space with the bubble, so I'm willing to guess that it sort of provides its own livable conditions, thankfully. Baby birds are safe :3
I actually cried so much when I first saw Greg cut his hair 😭😭
By the way, I don't know/remember if this was ever mentioned before but the fusions between Steven and others have varying pronouns!
- Stevonnie: They/Them
- Smoky Quartz: They/Them
- Rainbow Quartz 2.0: They/He
- Sunstone: They/She
- Obsidian: They/She
- Steg: He/Him

“And Connie became a lo-fi girl”
It used to be in the script but it got changed. Trust me. It’s true.
I defend Rose a lot but I also 100% get Steven's reaction of "I don't want to hear about another bad thing she did, I just want to fix it". Parents at the end of the day are people just like everyone else and our upbringing can tend to leave us emotionally unprepared to look at them through that lens. So when something comes along that forces you too, it can be very painful
Pearl and Vollyball’s little crush on Pink would have been cute, except for the fact that they were her literal slaves. She took advantage of the fact that they liked her to get her way and apparently just threw them both away when she was done with them, leaving them both emotionally traumatized. That’s really sad:(
will the next one be a cartoon?
Idk if another show recommendation would be helpful or wanted, but RWBY is a personal favorite of mine. It has a big fandom that loves watching reactions and would welcome you with open arms. Not to mention that Rooster Teeth, the company that makes the show, is supportive of people posting reactions and would help clear up any issues you'd have.
Rwby is amazing I found them right when they were putting out volume 2 and been watching ever since I love it!
@@FamGuy1000000 Dang! I wish I had that kind of history with the show. I only started watching after Volume 7 so I'm pretty new to the fandom. It must have been so cool watching it grow into what it is now!
there's alot of things I wish you would watch
gravity falls
phineas and ferb
milo murphy's law
amphibia
the owl house
and that's just a few shows on top of my head,there's just alot of them to name,but I gave you alot of good suggestions
oh, more feels!!!! imagine if she started batman beyond. let's not act like she won't stan TERRY
Five episodes at once? You might want to slow down.
You should really slow down. 😬
I find roses arc to be sooo interesting. At the beginning of the show we learn about rose at what is functionally the end of her life, a Being filled with intense regret who is very aware of her shortcomings. And as we continue on the path of truth, we learn about what those shortcomings are. And people forget about the fact that she for the majority of the story was someone trying SO HARD to make up for her past mistakes, all while running from them. In the end, she could never truly free herself from her actions, even when she became someone literally completely different.
We lost a good one! 💇🏽😢
I totally get Steven's reaction I react the same when anyone brings up my father.
"babe, wake up. Krysta uploaded"
Bluebird is a cool and intriguing villain, and I’m interested to see how Holly Blue’s resentment towards Steven will play into things. I wonder when they’re gonna show up again…
Rip Greg's hair
I hope it made it to space so he can really be part of the universe
I've just marathoned your whole Steven Universe reaction series up to this point, and its given me a well-needed rush of SU nostalgia!
Words can't express how sad I was to see Greg's hair go😔
Gotta go gravity falls or owl house, if you haven't seen those.
can you react to the owl house when you finish steven universe?
We actually had seen full pink in his gem half when he got split.
