Steven Universe does something I've can't remember seeing in a series before, not only dealing with what the metal consequences of being a child protagonist would entail, but also dealing with what it would be for a main character to give up the role that defined their existence.
Evedince of Steven Bieng corrupted is in the episode “We Need To Talk”When Blue Diamond speaks to white and says: “-A gem Could Be Corrupted Under So Much Pressure”
May I introduce you to:
Amphibia and the Owl House?
@@bittydasilva5530 i think it was “a gem could crack under all that pressure” not corrupt. And the episode was “change your mind”. I believe “we need to talk” was tge episode where Greg learns about fusion from pearl and rose and the first time we met the original pearl/rose fusion rainbow quarts.
Actually it’s Steven Quartz Cutiepie Demayo Diamond Universe
Wow that's true
God dame that is one long ass name
Cutepie?? Wdym
Blue Blox Bang cutie pie is a reference to the episode future vision where Garnet says Steven’s middle name is cutie pie
@@aliceisaperson oh ok

Heh, its clearly a dragon from dragon tales

First comment on this
hi peridot
Yellow Diamond would like to speak with you, Miss Peridot.
This is why i live

Anyone else notice that when Steven healed Jasper, he used tears instead of spit
Yeah resurrecting tears
Yes. That furthers my belief that Jasper's initial corruption was foreshadowing Steven's and Steven's tears being used to heal her was foreshadowing his tears helping to heal himself.
Lars just Lars
@@tristanjohnson9462 totally forgot about Lars
Bruh notice Lars too 🦧
Jasper corrupted herself has always been my favorite take. Fusing with a corrupted gem didn't infect her, but was more like being exposed to corruption while having a predisposition or being mentally susceptible.
Ehh, it was definitely because she fused with the Gem, though. She took on the patterns of the Gem she fused with, after all. It was practically symbolic of catching an STD.
It’s so sad when she said ‘No one who fused with me wants to stay’
it definitely was important tho
I always thought that a gem would corrupt faster if in distress, like how when jasper snapped at Steven she corrupted faster, or when Steven “corrupted” he was in a lot of mental distress
Honestly Steven became a monster because he thought he was becoming one in my opinion. It's the same reason why Steven appearance before was similar to Pink Diamond because subconsciously he slowly thought he was becoming like the Diamonds.
Yes, this is right. He didn't corrupt.
he did literally say "I'm a monster."
flines He was basically corrupted and considering he's a diamond it's not out of the question
flines and considering how heavily they were implying it I'm pretty sure that it's basically corruption of some kind.
@@pickedceasar1216 No one implyed that. Only BD who said one line about it.
"Pink Monster Boi" ... As I'm trying to hold back tears.
Edit - Steven's *BEAST MODE*
Steven Kaijuniverse. (Stolen from the Roundtable)
Corrupted Steven is a great representation of undiagnosed/masked mental disorders and how some people dealing with mental disorders view themselves. How without getting help and masking can cause a lot of damage both internally and externally. And how some people see themselves as monsters because of this. People who have or struggle with mental disorders aren’t monsters, broken or less than human. Accepting help does not make you weak. Talking about or letting others know about you disorders is not you seeking attention.
Steven Universe is what made me realize I had PTSD.
I believe that like there are many forms of anxiety and depression, there are many forms of corruption. No one "corrupts" in the same way. We have three different examples with the diamond corruption, Jasper and steven. What I love about Rebecca's writing is you could read corruption as a metaphor or as part of lore. For example, the diamonds could have corrupted the earth gems, or all the earth gems suffered PTSD, from the trauma of being essentially almost killed by their leaders and left behind, causing their bodies to manifest their inner dark thoughts. Steven could have been healed by his own tears with the diamond essences or it could have been the support of his family and friends. But in the end it was kind of both. It was only because of their support that steven cried, which healed himself. I like how Rebecca weaves these two things together to make of think and make the show much less one dimensional.
Almost all the quarts look the same as corrupted gems
Speaking of Magical Girls, I think Steven's transformation and corruption in general draw a lot from Madoka Magica where the characters had literal soul gems that could corrupt either through going above their magical limits or through traumatic experiences. When corrupted, the soul gems would transform into "grief seeds" which were a bit like eggs for an eldritch witch form that was a literal embodiment of the character's trauma. I do think in Steven's case, it wasn't corruption. A common theme throughout the show is how Steven's appearance changes with his self image. When he felt older, he turned older, when he felt like he was getting stronger training with Jasper, her got buff, and when he thought he was becoming like the diamonds, he started glowing pink and got his diamond pupils. So when he thought, "I'm a monster", he became a monster.
4:48
Pretty sure she made the face as in
"I care about you but pls dont shatter me like how you tried earlier °-° "
Today I realized that what Steven says “how am I suppose to live my life when I always feel like I’m gonna die” I live my life in fear because deep down I am always preying for someone to help or save me, also I too feel like a monster
Is there a crisis line where you live? They are good when things are bad, and they can hook you up with long-term help. You don't have to live that way.
Xubuntu47 thank you
I always worry about losing the people close to me when i can't fix their problems. My wife is suffering from depression and anxiety herself and I cant shake the feeling of needing to fix everything to save her. This series has hit me so hard it hurts.
@@TyoAtrosa that's epic
I wish the series didn’t end with Steven having so much discontent with his mom because she’s my favorite character and she evolved to be a better person and i wish that in Stevens corrupted like state he would have had an unconscious meeting with her deep in his gem and she would have apologized and said sweet things to help him and they could have embraced or something idk and I only thought this could have been a possibility because in her video tape she told him how every time he loves being himself that’s her loving being him and it would have been so sweet in my opinion
I wanted that SO MUCH. I LOVED ROSE/PINK and I'm livid we were denied closure on that subject. I feel like Rose/Pink was just turned upside down and left to be viewed as trash by judgemental fans and it bothers me. After the movie people said horrible shit about her and I hated it. I was hoping Future would give us a bit of closure for her but instead we got a bunch of useless Rose Quartzes (I still think that's stupid, they should have stayed fakes) who did nothing but further push the bs idea that "omg pink was literally the worst." UGH I have SO MANY FEELINGS about how Rose/Pink was treated. I'm not happy.
Same it felt incomplete however in war, and in being the head of a secession from an empire it make sense that in someway there isn’t a “redemption” pink pursued redemption by masquerading as Rose, she was able to grow as a being and learn very slowly from her mistakes over the millennia she spent on earth but even towards the end she didn’t truly comprehend humans or love too well. Even with Greg but that isn’t to say she wasn’t trying to be better but what we got towards the end are what pushed her to be better. The problem is her change and redemption toward being better were done through lies and deception and because of that Rebecca probs didn’t feel she needed to redeem her more. And sometimes shitty people do good things
Garnet LITERALLY pink tried hard to be good she even realized when she started the rebellion it was first the earth because she believed it was beautiful and shouldn’t be destroyed but then made it for gems like garnet that wanted to be free from the tyranny and it’s sucks how they only see her for the things she did wrong but she did those thing in tantrums because she was treated like a child so she acted like one then she learned to grow up and I’m sure the incident with pink pearl really affected her it was see how awkward she was with pearl and when gems first emerged from earth she treated them with kindness and out of every single gems she has sacrificed the most like her diamond ranking to a traitor then she loves Greg so much and a thought of her own child she gave up her form for them and yes she did some bad things like with bismuth but I’m she believed that Steven would fix that for them when he met lion since she left a tape for him
Benjamin Acuna yeah but it just makes me sad that she did try hard she wanted to be like the diamond so much and then hated that since they were terrible people and it’s kinda hard to hate her for doing this bad thinks because she lived with the diamonds who neglected and abused and hurt her when she was just having fun with what friends she did have
I’m on team wasn’t corrupted it was just his always shape shifting body reactions to his emotions Steven felt older he ages Steven feels like a monster he becomes a monster
I’m also on that team
Yes since the corruption was caused by the diamonds attack but it wasn’t like a change of mind. Steven was still there of his choice, it’s just shapeshifting to ones image of himself.
I'm on team they-left-it-ambiguous-on-pupose-so-just-pick-what-you-like. There's no right answer, so just have fun with it.
Sometimes all it takes for someone to become a monster is for they themselves to believe it...
I mean, who HASN'T had thoughts of blending a spoiled brat into a smoothy and making their parents drink it, Amirite?
@@captaing33gaming32 but he is a diamond ;-; he can corrupt himself
More than just the group hug, I feel this scene was a representation of the fact that sometimes you can't actively help people, all those characters tried to help steven but they can't understand, they can't relate. And when this happens the only thing you can do is simply to be there for the person suffering. In the epilogue we see that steven mental healing comes from himself, his friends can do nothing to help with it, just be there and show some love. It struck me when in the last episodes when almsot all characters said at a point or another "I know what could help you" each time to no avail . The group hug is a show of love and affection, it won't fix steven but it simply says "we are here for you"
I actually couldn't understand why he was so angry. Steven has always been open with his feelings in the past. He's always talked it out... With everyone. I didn't understand what made this situation different. At first I thought it was his powers going out of control. But it seemed more like his powers were reacting to his negative emotions rather than causing his negative emotions.
I disagree he DID talk about his feelings in the beginning but after the false test episode I think that episode that experience begun to close him off
He released no matter what he said he was being lied to
So that probably meant in his small brain
"They are lying to me no matter what I do or say"
That episode broke me
He just went along with it 🥲
I kinda wanted to see the next day after “I am my Monster “ I bet he felt bad for all he did.
[the great and lovably period ] like everyone who had a mental breakdown
It was probably ice cream and therapy and sleep
Even though it was bad that Steven turned into a literal monster, imagine if he could control that form, he'd be able to turn into it whenever he wanted, it would come in handy if he ever had to fight another giant monster.
The Commenter Dragon As awesome as it sounds, it would be impractical. He could destroy cities and cause many casualties in that form.
@@veronicapiccinini1981 I think they ment if he could control those powers
Kalek Linia even if he does, the result would be disastrous anyway. Think about it. Unless he’s fighting a giant monster in a humanless place, he could step on someone due to his size
@@veronicapiccinini1981 it wouldn't be the first time buildings were destroyed
Ummm so when he becomes a monster he was sized of the all 4 gems robot sooooo he can literally step on most things and break their necks...
I dont think it was possible for it to just be shape shifting thanks to white's line "That isnt steven anymore" when she tries to use her powers on him. Given corruption is a mental physical and emotional thing this kind of confirms his corruption. He already was emotionally not ok, he transformed physically, and mentally he had changed after admitting to being like how he saw the diamonds.
I feel bad for everyone who drew corrupted Steven purple.
HarmonE Records I honestly thought I’d be purple
*the man behind the slaughter*
@@Sunni69 but who's in front of the slaughter?
I don’t feel like he was necessarily corrupted I feel like his emotions made him shape shift into the monster also I’m commenting this before watching the video so
I think he was corrupted. It's just his corruption is different because he's organic, and not made of light like all the other Gems around him are. If Steven wasn't organic and just made of pure light like a Gem is, maybe his corruption would be a little more intenser.
This reminds me in Adventure Time episode "No Eyes" where Finn gets magical eyes from a dead hermit which turns people into what the user of the eyes see them as. Finn sees Neptr as a normal microwave, making him think he is a villain, turning himself into his dad.
It's not corruption, it's shapeshifting. He became a monster because his body subconsciously changed to suit what he was feeling, just like in 'Too Many Birthdays'.
IT WAS ALL ONION, THAT HUMAN I THINK.
It was all a plot by Onion to obtain the Cheeseburger Backpack.
Onion Sneeple CONFIRMED
That monster
Steven when he turned into worm boi wasn’t trying to attack anyone so when the gems attacked him he only did what his body would normally do and treated it like it was trying to kill him so he tried to kill them before they could if it was anyone’s fault for dragging out the fight any longer it was the gems
who remembers the Dove + Steven Universe Comercials
I tried to convince everyone that the monster is called "pinkzilla" but now,stevenzilla is the only name remaining.
Ohhhh😮 Fancy😍. I have to admit. Corrupted Steven is cute. I always thought it was Corruption, because I remember Steven saying in “Gem Hunt”:
“Well, they're like that now, but before they were different. They used to be normal Gems like Pearl, Amethyst, and Garnet. They had thoughts, and feelings, friends... I don't really know how the corruption works. It's like they're sick. They don't remember who they used to be... Maybe they don't even know how to look like themselves anymore.”
So maybe “Corruption” is a metaphor for “Mental Illness and Disorders”
That also ties in when white diamond tried to read stevens mind and in shock and fear said that isnt steven. Gems take a physical form depending on their mental state. In the episode about volleyball her physical form was cracking do to her mental state just like Stevens bones when he had his xray done.
Also the fact that the Diamonds have a corruption ray: that could be a visual metaphor that means the Diamonds were the cause of the gem's overbearing PTSD and other disorders, that put an end to the war because no one was willing to fight any longer, they were too far gone in their own minds and problems; and once they saw that the gems were corrupted, the Diamonds stopped because White thought they had surrendered, when in reality they just became numb by suffering and couldn't react properly to anything anymore, all that mixed with a new state of mind implemented by White Diamond that made them feel like monsters, then gave them a sort of amnesia tied to the PTSD.
TL;DR: That's kinda my theory about the corruption ray and how it ties into the metaphor.
is anyone gonna mention that monster steven naruto ran across the water
Same with blue
Aaron Hammond Ugh. That style of running is not unique to naruto...
Nyoom
He’s part gem and part human. He spent the season feeling negative towards himself, not asking for help and making himself crazy. He “corrupted” himself with his dark thoughts.I think that’s why he turned into Monster Steven. His gem reacted to his corrupted human self and changed just like the other gems changed when hit with the Corrupted Light.
Think back to 'Too Many Birthdays', when he kept changing his age because of what he was feeling. It's the same principle here.
Yeah, even me, known throughout the town for being incredibly selfless and kind, used to-eh who am I kidding, still does struggle with mental issues. When I went to public school, if I found out it was someone’s birthday, I’d drop everything and make a gift. A sketch of an alien flower with spiraling thorny tendrils for leaves and layers of differently shaped petals and a gem-like center, or a simple origami dragon or owl, or even a Minecraft outer space card, even if they said there was no need. I made it a habit to hold the door open after lunch and let women or girls skip ahead of me so long as I wasn’t hangry. Yet sometimes I’d have emotional breakdowns due to sensory overload and not being able to properly read facial expressions, and I’d lash out at people, yelling and making threats that, if the vice principal wasn’t so understanding, could’ve gotten me expelled or even jailed. I’m better now, and whenever I get upset I usually do a lip sync performance in the bathroom or draw my emotions or just go for a walk. It’s always good to have a creative outlet. If you’re not good artistically but know a lot, try making educational slideshows or documents on subjects you’re an expert on! But always remember that you can get better, that whenever you’re down life might surprise you with something amazing! I found a perfectly preserved sea biscuit fossil chasing our dumb dog who got off her lead, and I’ve found the most beautiful flowers going for walks through the woods. So never forget that you’re amazing and you’ve already done so much. Look back on past achievements, even small ones, even with unfinished projects, look at how far you’ve gotten already, and no matter what, the moon and sun always smile down on us, but the sun’s smile can be a bit too bright at times, haha!
Imagine what a fusion between Lapis and Garnet would be like. So powerful
does “spoiler warning” in vid
thumbnail: am i a joke to you?
I think he became a monster cause his gem reacts on how he pictures himself like in the birthday party episode he was changing his form on how his mental state was
I like to think that it's a little bit of both:shapeshifting and corruption
godzilla + barney = steven monster-
i'm sorry i had to-
Well i have one theory but its a long time, steven’s having his trauma and his half gem couldn’t take it any more that pink steven is out of his body and and then corrupts then steven is passed out and the gem are trying to wake him out. The battle is over then connie brings steven into his gem and fuse. Thats my theory (even the show is over)
steven has a long name lol
and here early :D
That's not his name
Diamond is a title
Demayo is the original name of his father
Steven quartz,qtpie,diamond,demayo,universe lol

#StevenUniverseForever
I saw his transformation as him thinking he was becoming more like his 'diamond' mom. There was so many parallels (like when he broke the reflective material and saw his angry face=when he was seeing through Pink's memories of her breaking the window/wall and we see her angry face). I feel like since he found out that Rose is Pink Diamond that he feels like his life is a lie. I think he was also trying to live like Rose, but now that Rose is Pink he's confused. He doesnt want to be like the 'old' diamonds (I dont think he wants to be like the 'new' ones either) so now hes trying to over correct. He went from one extreme, saving the galaxy, to the other, stay at home dad. He also shoved all the trauma aside and when ALL of it came rushing back he wasnt prepared on how to deal with it and he 'broke'. I'm so glad he got a therapist too! A therapist helped me personally so much when I needed one. I cant suggest one enough.
Tl;dr: I agree with a lot of other commenters.
There was a steady chorus of "Steven needs therapy" from the fandom throughout the series, at least on TH-cam. I was pleasantly surprised when it actualy happened, because I didn't think it fit with the world of SU. Now I can see how the whole season was shouting at us, IT'S OK TO ASK FOR HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT!
therapist: let all your trapped feelings out
Steven: okay
-*later*
now there is a pink Godzilla roaming beach city
Defo think it’s his inner turmoil manifested since he’s able to shift shape it allows him to physically change as he’s feeling a sort of way
The symbolism was a little too on the nose, and I felt like I was being spoon fed, but I still loved the ep and Steven Universe will be missed
The show felt both rushed and wasted potential. I feel like we learned nothing that we really wanted and the stories we got were some what half-assed. I loved the plot of Steven coming to terms with things and himself and change (as someone who struggles with change i felt those parts deeply) but then so many episodes just seemed pointless. It was like they made all these episodes to give flat goodbyes to some loved characters but then introduced others who are just here and gone for no reason?? RAUGH. lol
And we never saw Mystery Girl again whyyyyy
I feel like I have more questions than answers and an even bigger hole in my heart now that Steven is over. I'm SAD lol
Loved the video keep doing wat your doing team NerdWire
Jha'Myle Savvyy ❤️❤️❤️
i believe it's not corruption, and it's just shapeshifting
because of a few reasons:
1. corrupted gems seem to corrupt slowly, growing horns and they also have prominent blotches of colors that grow
other than steven, which he just suddenly BURSTS into it suddenly
2. look at his other "forms" he's taken throughout the episodes
in fragments, he grows into that of a quartz soldier, due to jasper's teachings
he grows stronger, taller, and even his hair begins to poof out like a combination of jasper and pink diamond
in homeworld bound, after he runs from the diamonds, he grows even taller, gains the diamond eyes and, yet again, his hair grows out, similar to pink diamonds
because he views himself as a diamond.
in everything's fine, he stays the same as in homeworld bound
all of his "forms" are taken on by his perception of himself
i don't think it's ACTUAL corruption, but instead he views himself as similar to a corrupted gem, or just, in general, a monster.
i’m apart of the group of people that think (know) it was shapeshifting and not corruption
Next video : Onion & his symbolism explained! (can't wait for it)
Onion is inexplicable.
I never felt that was corruption so much, but that he subconsciously transformed in much the way many other gems can, because of how he felt about himself. Like when he was uncontrollably aging.
I do believe with this! When he thought as himself as older his gem made him what he felt like.
In this case I too believe that because he thought he was a monster and felt like one just like with his aging his gem made him what he felt like.
I think like little of all the points you made in this video btw:great vid sad that it's all over but happy to
There's something that seems off for this "corruption"
First no colored cercle around the spikes were present when every corrupted gems had and still have if Yellow don't heal them
Second remember the episode "so many birthdays"? He was thinking himself older and older so the gem reacts and he physically became older.
And finally when Jasper was corrupted it was slowly not all at once. Steven transform immediately after he says he was a monster and plus his healing power is a sort of stress reliever when nephrite can't stop saying "No please no, no we're all gonna be!" Steven use his spit and that calmed her. I think that's why he was healed.
His tears was part of the cure (of course realizing that he have a lot of people that are here for him is huge help too)
Plot twist: Onion is the master of corruption and the mind behind Steven's undoing
I love ya Kris! Never stop being awesome!
Kaneki: ok steven now turn all your rage and let your kagune out!
Steven: 0:12 *turns into a crystl beast*
lapis lazuli has to be my favorite character in the series
Nobody's going to talk about how Steven was exhibiting the behavior of someone who's having a panic attack?
I think he is corrupted because if he was just in a new form then he wouldnt be attacking, but when white diamond tries to connect with him she said that's not Steven anymore. And corruption is a tear to the mind. Which means that they take on a animalistic form and they dont remember anything
Steven was destroying things. Plus, he is a diamond.
GreenBarf Animations exactly
GreenBarf Animations the attracting could just been part of his mental brake down when they happen you aren’t you your gone and just actions you hurt people or brake things without knowing ... and the form for Steven was because his body always match’s his mind and how he feels and think about himself he felt like a monster during his brake down he becomes a monster
@@killerfoxraspberryplays8903 well yes, but actually no.
Ok aside from that. I still stand with my point. He transformed at the end of everythings fine. I dont need u to agree I'm just saying. A tear to the mind.
White said it wasn't Steven because she didn't recognize all the negative emotions coming from him. Before he changed, Steven literally talked about how he was hiding all the issues he was dealing with from everyone.
Steven turned into a monster because he was convinced he was one. It's the same principle as when he kept changing his age in 'Too Many Birthdays'. It's shapeshifting, not corruption.
I honestly don't see this as corruption. It's more of an enhanced malfunction off his powers from when he couldn't control his cat transformation.
My hot take is that his body reacted to his feelings and became into the thing.
Thanks for the video Kris hope you are staying safe.
Scott Yoshihara thanks, you too!!!
This kinda reminds me of an episode on Adventure Time. I forgot what it was called, but I’ll figure it out at some point.
Ah yes, my favorite musical number:
"This is a thought to mind"
I like to think that the extreme swelling of Steven in Steven universe future is Steven’s inner demon trying to escape from his body. Just think about it. When you stretch something, it looks like something is trying to come out. Plus I think this could be a metaphor for people who are on the brink of losing themselves. Like when your about to have a panic attack, you could feel like something is trying to come out of you. Now, that’s just my theory but idk if it’s right.
kinda makes sense, like- Why else woould that happen- and It only does break free in "i am my monster" because steven lets it happen.
omg it makes seance now!!
I thought Steven became a monster is because he was surrounded by danger and feel like he’s gonna die like majority of his childhood so even little things like when he got turned down by Connie he started growing bigger started panicking feel like he was going to die so may be all that stress piled up and he just felt like he was gonna die so maybe like animals instinct he turned ballistic he turned FERAL, that’s all really I got
No I don’t think so
He view himself as a monster and so he transformed into one
Could you please do one about fusions and could you answer if the diamonds can go together and make a fusion
Steven did get corrupted but in a flash he ran when he was getting corrupted cause he thought he was a monster and he didn't want anybody to see him
Edit: Steven's tears healed him and I think Steven got corrupted because cystrals when out not a ball of light shapeshifting.
But aren't corrupted gems needs the 4 diamond essence idfk-
I agree with this
I remember when whote was trying to connect with steven
As we saw it didnt work and she said
"That isnt steven anymore!"
@@Crickets-Everywhere White thought it wasn't Steven because she didn't recognize the guilt, malice and other negative emotions that were coming from him. He'd kept these feelings hidden from everyone, after all.
At 4:46 and end at 4:52 i couldn't stop laughing "yes yes there there stuffed upper lip ew I'm touching peasants"
To me, Steven corrupting could represent a suicide attempt. The way Amethyst said, “Why didn’t I do anything?” really unsettled me.
Stevezilla/Wormy Boi Has a *MEGA NECK*
I think this was pink Steven lashing out due to the deeds yes ashamed of. Monster Steven had horns similar to the ones on Jaspers helmets. when he shattered her. And his Dianne wail sounds like the screeching the van made before it crashes, though there was nothing like wh853”s bear shattering. .
In fusion is when they connect and when fused no matter how much shared emotions they take a price of the person's personality and by the wording from jasper after fusing with lapis they shared memories or hidden feelings so when jasper fused she could have become corrupted from sharing or looking inside each other's mind
Monster Steven's horns are just like Jasper helmet's
Steven healed himself with the tears he cried, the water turns pink below him.
i dont feel he was corrupted. but more suffered a form of what happened when he kept turning old....just more extreme
Me an intellectual. It looks like I seen this somewhere before flashbacks opening sequence in dark Gaia opening scene in Sonic Unleashed. Nope this scene perfect
Huge problem with the whole Steven and Jasper corrupted themselves.
Jasper's case was both mental and physical illness. I say this because Jasper was corrupted thanks to fusing with an already corrupted gem. Yes her mental health played a HUGE part in speeding it up sure, but she only got it because of the corrupt fusion in the first place. Its like when you get sick from sharing a soda with someone with a cold or something when you've just gotten over a flu bug. You get sick a LOT faster because your immune system hasn't replenished itself. Same deal with Jasper here. Afterall her body started changing first, not her mind.
Steven's problem was strictly psychological but because his body responds to how he views himself? If he sees himself as a monster in mentality? His body is going to change physically.
WORMY boi has that
that yellow diamond run
The 4 diamonds can corrupt and cure any gem and the can corrupt and cure themselves
Steven is straight-up Godzilla
Ah yes. Onion. The behind the scenes master of all Stevens troubles. Onion, the immortal Lord of Chaos. Onion, watcher of his own birth.
The only power monster steven had that was similar to godzilla was that he kind of like sent out a pink explosion in that one part and godzilla can release an orange explosion.
At the start of the video, did they forget the diamond in Steven's name
You guys have to admit, Corrupted Steven looks like the 2018 rise of the TMNT SHREDDER.
1:07 Uh... Am I the only one that notices the sunglasses Garnet and Peridot wear look similar to Kamina and Simon's shades from Gurren Lagann?
Stevens mind blowers
That's why Steven calls himself Pink Lasagna- because he has lots of layers.
Pink Gojira/Godzilla! I liked the kaiju design.
I had the EXACT SAME thoughts about Jasper's corruption.
4:56 she was also probably scared af bc Steven nearly shattered her and had seen his violent intents, but also yea probably a snooty reaction too
Do you remember your original theory before episode 19 I bet you do because of how I am Stephen become pink white diamond and Jasper will be mutated or maybe the Stephen Jasper theory where the worm in the intro might have two faces like obsidian
