      She is just doing what she was made for right? Maybe she will want to change. Would be cool if blue kinda turned on yellow and battled with her and then also helped save earth. I can imagine an epic and emotional battle scene. Like if yellow was forced to kill blue. (Because she says whats the use of feeling? So she wont stop to mourn blue.) Maybe yellow will want to rule alone. This kinda turned into a theory but yea. LOL
      Also now that i think about it. Rose was made for a purpose. What if pink made her to kill herself, to help yellow and blue grow is diamonds. To change there ways or something? Maybe pink wanted to show the diamonds something bigger?

      And that is why Jasper, Bismuth and Ruby(eyeball) are hopelessly lost cause they choose to be stubborn, determine, and vengeful for the life situation they were put in by Rose. The Diamonds might have made a lot of bad choices ruling; forcing a soldier to go rogue is anything but smart. I wish characters like them still stayed more their background looks way more fun than Lapis or Peridot´s

    I know this is off topic from the main part of the video, but you mentioned it in the intro and I wanted to bring it up. You mentioned how part of the fan base really likes Blue Diamond despite her despicable atrocities she's committed on Gem and human-kind. It has occured to me in my few years of being in the SU fandom that- most likely due to the show being less consistent with its schedule- the fandom sees most things through a lens of recency. This is not necessarily a bad thing, so let me explain.
    Let's take the Blue Diamond example: in this Steven Bomb, we didn't see much off the ruthless, strict leader she is. We saw a gem who was hurt and in mourning. The Crewniverse wrote her to be sympathized with and, for the most part, it worked. This is why I think her fans really like her right now: they aren't looking at the whole picture.
    Another example could be people trying to defend their certain characters by saying they've done nothing wrong. People forget about all of the bad things that happened in the past not because they don't want to remember these flaws in their favorite characters, but because they happened so long ago, if not in canon time than in real time. Pearl, Amethyst, Peridot, Lapis, Jasper, all great characters who have all done varying levels of horrible stuff, but the fans forgive them for it. It's not that they've done nothing wrong, but they've grown and developed past that.
    The main point of this comment was basically to address this issue, because the lore and history of SU is so rich, deep and important to the story, characters, and themes of the show that we should really strive to not forget it. It's not a horrible sin, everyone does it from time to time, and it's not anyone's personal fault, it's CN's scheduling's fault. For a lack of better words, #StayWoke

      Awkole EC first thing that came to mind was rose. She shattered a diamond and many other gems and use to be a different person then what we see and how Greg and the other gems describe her to be. The show revolves around change and every character may get another chance at being "good". Including the diamonds..

    • @LucidProtean
      @LucidProtean 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Pandatvomega meow Rose is another great example! Though I don't entirely agree that the Diamonds could be turned good in the end. Like SliceofOtaku said, maybe Blue could do a redeemable act, but I don't think they'll ever be fully redeemed

      Good Is Not Nice

    • @fantomex8188
      @fantomex8188 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Affably Evil is when a villain is polite, friendly and genuinely kind, even while plotting evil. Good Is Not Nice is the inverse of that: characters who are morally slanted toward the good side but are rude, unfriendly, and mean.
      They never kill anyone if they can help it, nor would they allow people to come to any sort of harm by ignoring them. They always willing to go out of their ways to save the town and complete strangers. When the call comes, they will answer it, usually with little protest. They often help people in need with little promise of reward. In almost every way, they act like ideal heroes.
      Except that they are asocial and sometimes downright abusive toward most people they meet. They may refuse to explain anything. They may also actively rebuke people who express gratitude, friendship, love, and/or offers of support when they are faced with problems.
      There are a few reasons these people may act like this:
      They may want to be selfish and arrogant or just unbiased to either side, but their morality keeps on getting in the way, even if it is to their detriment. They may put on a Jerkass Façade to try to counter it.
      They do consider themselves as better than everyone else, and their attitudes range from Smug Super to Arrogant Prick. After all, it is difficult for them to be nice to people when they do not even respect them. However, they still feel compelled to help these lower creatures on a regular basis.
      They are natural loners. Their senses of duty force them to perform heroic acts, but they do not consider chitchat or politeness to be parts of their obligations.
      They may want to be nice people, but they believe that being nice does not always get things done, and that accomplishing good requires them to do harsh and cruel acts, particularly if they have to teach something. (This may be an intermittent effect, applied only when necessary; contrast Beware the Nice Ones, where such outbursts result from break-down. On the other hand, emotional trauma can coincide with the realization that nicety won't cut it.)
      They cannot afford to let others get close to them because their enemies will use others against them.
      They might wish to be nice but live so far outside normal human experience that they have no idea how to go about it; similarly, the hero might be autistic, or a non-human alien.
      The world the heroes live in is operated through cynical ends, so Strict Good Guyism does not work - either in the eyes of the author or in a literal in-universe sense.
      They intimidate enemies through harsh demeanors.
      Here are related tropes which are demonstrations as to how good characters are not as nice as they appear to be:
      Anti-Hero
      Break His Heart to Save Him: A hero acts like a jerk to someone they love (usually their love interest) so they'll leave them and stay out of danger.
      Brutal Honesty: The truth isn't comfortable to hear.
      Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough (Sergeant Rough)
      Compassionate Critic: Being critical of others because you want them to succeed.
      Cruel Mercy: When sparing someone's life isn't really nice at all.
      Cruel to Be Kind: A horrible action is really a kind act.
      Cynical Mentor
      Dark Shepherd: Where a character produces moral behavior on others through threats of punishments.
      Drill Sergeant Nasty (if they are heroically aligned or their superiors are not General Ripper)
      Dr. Jerk
      Exalted Torturer: Torture is presented as heroic.
      Forgiven, but Not Forgotten: Forgiving others doesn't equate the character to be nice about it.
      For Your Own Good: A statement a character makes to explain their "not nice" actions.
      Gentle Touch vs. Firm Hand (the Firm Hand)
      Good Cop/Bad Cop: While the good cop is respectful, the bad cop deals with suspects harshly.
      Grumpy Bear
      Hair-Trigger Temper
      Holy Is Not Safe: Holy powers are usually good yet just as unpleasant as evil powers.
      Honest Advisor: Good advisors are someone whose advice isn't pleasant to hear.
      Hypocrite Has a Point: Someone manages to provide valid points on a subject in spite of his/her hypocrisy.
      Jerkass Has a Point: A jerkass manages to provide valid points.
      Kick the Son of a Bitch: When the hero's cruel act isn't that bad because the one receiving it isn't sympathetic.
      The Napoleon: When a hero is too hostile to do "nice" things for others, due to being gung-ho to hide insecurities about their size.
      Noble Bigot: Holds prejudiced beliefs, but tries to be a good person.
      Noble Bigot with a Badge: Same as above, but they are aligned with the law enforcement.
      Omniscient Morality License: Someone does whatever they want with the heroes, but is still considered good because they know it will turn out alright.
      Pay Evil unto Evil: What isn't nice about the hero is their tendency to repay villains with evil acts.
      Percussive Prevention: Physically attacking someone to get them to safety.
      Polite Villains, Rude Heroes: Heroes are mean while villains are nice.
      Politically Incorrect Hero: The good guy who holds racist, sexist, or controversial beliefs.
      Pragmatic Hero
      Red Eyes, Take Warning (if they are the good guys)
      Reformed, but Not Tamed: A character changes to the alignment of good, but not their bad attitude or behavior.
      Rude Hero, Nice Sidekick: The hero is horribly rude, but his sidekick isn't.
      Rightly Self-Righteous: Being good doesn't stop the character from expressing how morally superior they are compared to others.
      Sergeant Rock
      Shoot the Dog: Where a hero does a "not nice" deed because it needs to be done.
      Sink-or-Swim Mentor: When mentors don't go easy on newcomers.
      Smiting Evil Feels Good: It isn't nice to feel satisfied of punishing evil.
      Stern Teacher
      Terror Hero: The hero who seeks to strike fear in evildoers.
      To Be Lawful or Good: The hero chooses the former option if the are more concerned about upholding principles than being compassionate.
      Tough Love: Treating other characters harshly as means to better them.
      Trickster Mentor
      Was Too Hard on Him: The character who deal with others harshly may feel bad about doing so.
      What the Hell, Hero? (People call The Hero out and blame them for their actions)
      Well-Intentioned Extremist: When you put more emphasis on the "well-intentioned" part than the "extremist" one.
      Note that when handled well, this can create an interesting, complex character. When done poorly, you can end up with serious Moral Dissonance, a Designated Hero and/or even an Unintentionally Unsympathetic character.
      Compare Noble Demon, who will likely fall into this if not too morally ambiguous. Often a Knight in Sour Armor, Mr. Vice Guy, Jerk with a Heart of Gold, Jerkass Woobie, or sometimes just a Jerkass who does good things. The term Anti-Hero is sometimes used to cover this trope. Sister trope to Creepy Good. Naive newcomers may be surprised to learn they are not the idealized hero everyone thinks they is. This type of characters will turn out to be heroes with bad publicity.
      Why Light powers can be the Holy Hand Grenade even when Light is Good.
      Contrast Affably Evil and Good Is Not Dumb. If a character acts like this exclusively towards their enemies, you've got a case of Good Is Not Soft.
      Lawful Good versions of this trope may be strict, humorless and serious. In other cases, they will put much emphasis on "Lawful" more than "Good". Very common personality flaw for The Paladin.
      See also Hidden Depths. Also see the Knight Templar, who goes beyond merely not being "nice" into darker territory.

      actually it does: The Crystal Gems and to a point so Steven. ^-<
      *"Villain" means one who to include the use of force and violence opposes and seeks to undo or do damage against established powers of governance or control for the hopes of self gain, not always at the inclusion or exclusion of others and not always with the willingness to show mercy when able.*
      The Diamonds serve as the "Established Order" in SU, with the Gems being Terrorists basically and thus are by definition villains in the story, even if not 'the villains' of the story. ^-<
      (so when also they are by being the protagonists also serve as the "heroes.")

    I agree! That was a great analysis of Blue Diamond and I think you hit the nail on the head! I'd like to see an analysis/theory on Pink Diamond from another, far less popular view that she was as cold and cruel as Blue and Yellow. That's just my view on her, but I'd like to see what you think on it.

    has ANYONE noticed that each and EVERY diamond represents an element!?
    White=air, the highest and most mysterious of all elements. typically sharp and precious and fast to the point.
    Blue=water, flexible and smooth and soft but also rough and furios. typically the people with this element are often sad and prone to breaking down, they're very smart and love to collect things, they try their hardest not show their emotions.
    Yellow=earth-uh..-terrain, often know for being tactical and strategic. they great for generals and often see anyone dumber than them as inferior and weak, they like to plan ahead and know exactly what will happen next.
    Pink=fire, known for fast and deadly destroying everything in it's path often associated with evil but can be a powerful force for revival. fire is the most emotional of all the elements and is often hungry for power but not always, very hot temper and quick to anger people with fire have a hard time not lashing out. when a fire dies down it can be great for cultivating new life but could also decimate an area.

    Yeah, I understand that lack of hype. I wanted to watch the bowl today, but I'm way more excited about the new "season", for lack of a better word lol, of Steven Universe. I think that the content far more than surpasses the 3 hour tackle-fest. I kinda wish these hiatus periods weren't so long, but it's understandable. The quality assures that much lol. Love the channel, keep it up!

    I think the diamonds have a sister like relationship and pink diamond was the younger sister maybe even a newer gem. We don't know anything about white diamond... but I bet she will be the oldest/first and will act like a strict mother to the others. I also wonder how diamonds are made in this universe and can there be more..

    As someone who has depression, and family and friend who also suffer from the condition, the fact that you told us to get help simply at the mention of the disorder makes me happy. I also want to say that your channel makes me happy. You try so hard to make these videos,but dont push yourself too far, and still enjoy doing this, and seeing youtubers that try their best without trying too hard makes me feel happy. And oddly proud, seeing as I never nave met you-

    I don't know why, but the song " what's the use of feeling, Blue?" Always got me. Why? ... Yellow Diamond wasn't talking about why Blue Diamond shouldn't be sad, or "blue". I think she was using "blue" as her name. I mean, I think Yellow Diamond was trying to get Blue Diamond to stop feeling. For example, to stop feeling sadness, anger, happiness... ( etc.) It just seems so deep. Yellow Diamond just wants to fight, to take her roll of a leader. But, not care of *anything* she doesn't want to feel anything. ... To prove Yellow Diamond is talking about not feeling at all, in the song she says, " What's the use of feeling?" ( This time she didn't say, " What's the use of feeling, Blue?")

    It’s interesting that all evidence pointed towards The Answer being after Pink Diamond’s shattering, but the reality being that it was definitely before it, since we see in that 2 second silhouetted flashback from Garnet in Gemcation that Garnet has fought on the side of the CGs while Pink Diamond was still alive.

  • @AgentZeata
    @AgentZeata 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You raise some good points. Just don't forget that Blue Diamond (and all the Diamonds for that matter) are not exclusively ruthless, evil villains. (I don't think that you think this. I'm just pointing this out because it seemed to be forgotten in the video.) I wouldn't even go as far as to call them evil, since they believe that what they're doing is right. They're "human" too and although they've committed sins that can't be justified, that doesn't mean they're not "people" too. That's why Blue Diamond has a lot of sympathizers right now. The Crewniverse has recently shown us that the villains do feel the same things we and our heroes feel, showing that we're not so different from one another. However, I think we'll soon be shown the more ruthless side of Blue Diamond and be reminded of how she is still siding with a lot of evil practices, despite her seeing things differently. Therefore, we'll be shown that our antagonists aren't really evil but still side with evil, meaning that we must oppose them. We hope that they'll see the light and change their ways, but if they don't then we'll be forced to fight against them.

  • @afroampharos
    @afroampharos 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yeah, I can definitely agree that Blue Diamond is one terrifying villain. In two situations she could have either seen the Crystal Gems and do everything in her power to shatter them or outright KILLED Greg if she found out the person he was talking about missing was Rose and that he was special to her like the Crystal Gems are. She's definitely willing to turn all her sorrow into pure anger and destruction at any time and the gems are more than loosing their cover and secrecy at this point with everything that's happened, from Jasper's long disappearance and the Ruby's being AWOL in space - both of which are apparently yet to raise red flags to the Diamonds.

    @raphiecrescentmoon6411 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I still think Blue Diamond is a nice character. I bet she'll be reformed soon. She and the other diamonds are like sisters in my eyes. So, to lose someone you love so dearly triggered her into this state. I actually think Yellow Diamond told her they were to destroy the Earth because of Rose Quartz so she could only think of Destroying the Earth because of Rose. Blue Diamond probably thought that if she took control of Earth, she would have something to remind her of Pink Diamond. Yellow Diamond actually doesn't show much remorse for Pink Diamond. She probably never really was attached to Pink as much as Blue was. Besides, if you think about it, what she's doing is kind of a sweet way to remember Pink. Even if she's kidnapping humans for the Zoo. I hope she'll soon be on the side of the Crystal Gems. I hope so...
