This episode shows everything that is wrong with SU.
Basically the plot and character motivations are indecipherable.
So Steven for some reason is depressed.
His powers freak out and this would be a important and interesting development.
Only after his monster transformation instead of having the thread around them for some episodes or trying to find a solution the "solution" turns out to give the monster a hug
So a typical bullshit "solution".

Well, I loved the episode.
>Well, I loved the episode.
Why? The solution was stupid and made no sense on any level.
It did have potential however the solution like always ruins it.
Its systemic in SU.
How brave and stunning of you to come out as a giant faggot. Respect
Thanks user
>So Steven for some reason is depressed.
We spent an entire season going into a good amount of demonstration and justification for that depression. And that demonstration and justification leads naturally to the solution. You are talking as if you watched the episode in isolation.
>to you
The solution was to calm Steven down so he would start his therapy.
Why did you keep watching it even it you know you'll get dissapointed anyway? I didn't even spend my time with the finale because I knew it'll be utter horseshit.
No I get he is depressed because he is rejected and Connie is moving away from him and rejected his proposal.
I get that.
Only after that everything makes less sense especially in context.
>You are talking as if you watched the episode in isolation
I must ask did you watch every episode when it did come out?
Because this way you can forget what was in the previous one. I binge watched (is it binge watching if the episodes are 10 minutes?) from 10 to today.
For example Steven pushes people away all this time, the CG want to be with him yet he runs away etc.
And the solution was to hug him? He also hes a freak out after the Diamonds and his behavior stops making human sense.
Also excluding that the premise of hugs solve problems is retarded and stupid. This just shows exactly what is wrong with SU.
But user, they need those YouTube V I E W A

>Why did you keep watching
Good question.
There are multiple reasons. one of them is that I'm a obligatory complecionist so that once I start watching a show I almost never drop it.
Also I get some fun out of pointing out the contradictions and nonsense or how bad it gets.
There are other reasons however this is the main thing.
Seriously? We're doing this again?
See:
Most of us have already got the ending spoilers beforehand and didn't even bother to watch the ending. There wasn't even a proper discussion.
>someone edited the monster into a dick
>can't unsee it
>sugar probably perverted enough for it to be so
>No I get he is depressed because he is rejected and Connie is moving away from him and rejected his proposal.
Well no that was just the straw that broke the camel's back. It was about isolation and lack of purpose, he felt alone and beyond understanding, he could not turn to anyone for help. He thought escaping into Stevonnie would make him feel like he is no longer isolated with his trauma and the rejection hammered the point that this would never be the case.
>And the solution was to hug him?
It's not just a hug it's the reason behind the hug, that they show patience and solidarity and understanding even when Steven is at his absolute worst because that's what Steven did for all of them.
What did you think about it?
>Not Not being unable to unsee the gigantic gut of that thing

>It's not just a hug it's the reason behind the hug, that they show patience and solidarity and understanding even when Steven is at his absolute worst because that's what Steven did for all of them.
Yet previously he magically auto rejected all attempts at communication.
How do you watch a show for 6 seasons and still not understand what it is about.
Post the edit.
You misunderstand. I understand whats its all about and this is why its bad. Also this episode heights all the bad things about the show.
OP's probably in the hate bandwagon
I'm surprised you stayed watching this long then.
If you like to call it this way.
I'm more in the "this is boring" and "this is stupid" camp.
>I'm surprised you stayed watching this long then.
See:
>Steven is sad because of PTSD, he doesn't know what do with his life, and he thinks his friends won't love him if they find out what he's done
>he gets therapy for PTSD, he goes travelling to find a meaning for himself, and his friends hug him to show they still love him
How does a grown man not understand these incredibly basic themes?
Whole trauma arch was dumb, Steven could’ve left the nest just reflecting his life at beach city.
He saw the universe but not the whole world yet. Melancholy instead of this action would’ve fit better imo.
The movie was better ending desu.
easy, there are no grown men on Yas Forums. just manchildren and literal children.
>but not the whole world yet
The more you think about it the less sense it makes.
>Oh no you guyz I'm moving away
>its not like we have phones and instant communication
>Or these warp pads that give instant transport to all places in the world
>Or that I have a lion that can magically teleport me to you so we can hang out
>Its so super dramatic that I move away, its not like I can portal any second back to your home!
SERIOUSLY!
>>Steven is sad because of PTSD,
in cartoon world hugging people cures PTSD.
Also this is the worse execution of PTSD in the history of Hollywood. Yes even worse then this youtube.com
It didn't cure his PTSD.
Also, you don't seem to understand what PTSD is.
>Also, you don't seem to understand what PTSD is.
And you do?
Getting into physical contact with someone who has automatic reactions and reject physical contact. What can possibly go wrong?
Worst depiction of PTSD out there.
Cool blog post, loser.
Thanks basement autist.
That’s why I feel it’s a long road trip, he going to find a second home near Connie with a job as construction worker or something similar.
wtf not that edit, the one where his face is gone and his pec muscles look like balls with his neck and head being a dick.
Thanks.
Only its literally nothing only a penis where its supposed to be. I was expecting to see a revelation that makes me never look at a picture the same pic related.
I want to see this.
That's the one. Like a hidden design or something.
To be fair, he had turned into a giant monster by that point. They had no choice but to physically contact him to stop him tearing apart Beach City.
I legit do wonder what Sucrose meant by this if it was deliberate.
>Steven becomes aggressive/destructive/murderous
>Steven shifts into a more masculine version of himself - buff, sharper jaw, stubble, jojo hair
>Steven feels like a monster
>Steven shifts into a phallic kaiju
Is it truly, unironically a "masculinity = bad" metaphor? And if so, how come the way to calm the 'monster' is by kissing the "tip" and smothering it with love until it grows small again?
so what she is saying, is that when men are angry, you just gotta suck em off?
So? That's not any different from any of the other characters initially rejecting Steven's help, but he didn't give up on them. And now they showed they wouldn't give up on him either.
Or a good ol' handy, at least.
Steven pretty much turned into Super Buu. He would have absorbed Yellow and Blue Diamond and beaten the Gems senseless like Buu did with Gohan
Friend, it's been explained to you a dozen times.
>For example Steven pushes people away all this time, the CG want to be with him yet he runs away etc.
He wasn’t it in the right mindset. I don’t get why this hard for people to get. Some of you have never had a public mental breakdown and it shows.
But it wasn't public it was between close friends and family
>Didn’t even get killed or redeemed
>Never appears in the show ever again
Name a character with most wasted potential
based
>So Steven for some reason is depressed
This is the one thing they actually explained clearly
>Basically the plot and character motivations are indecipherable.
i understand them
Reminder that this is the score
woah. do you watch rick and morty per chance?
How are people STILL not understanding why Steven is depressed/suffering etc? There's an episode dedicated to explaining it right at the screen?
>it doesn't make sense
No, it makes sense, it just isn't logical because Steven is suffering from an emotional/mental issue. I genuinely think these threads are being made by people who don't watch the show but just skimmed episode descriptions looking for ways to hate it. If you don't like it fi e but this constant "But why is he sad??" Is just retarded
It just seems like a lot of people don’t understand emotions.
Peedee. Idk why but it felt like he was supposed to be some 3rd wheel in a relationship with connie and steven given that he was literally the only other kid around their age
no but i did pay attention enough to know the plot of that episode was to save Steven and the character motivations was save Steven
>actively fucked up the plot
>obsidian
?
>too stupid to understand the finale of a fucking children's show
That's just pathetic
>That scene where all the diamonds and spinel were crying because they blame themselves for steven becoming a monster.
I can understand blue and spinel crying their eyes out, even yellow to an extent but not white diamond. They really could go overboard with tears sometimes.
