This was the perfect send-off to the series. It's so good it makes me emotional.
Future was fine but man I really wish the resources just went towards turning Diamond Days into a full season 6

Ship
I don't think they were even aware they'd been renewed for a final season at that point user. Notice how Sunstone, RQ2 and Obsidian were all put into CYM with no proceeding arcs? There's probably a good reason for that. The movie being an overall celebration of the show is also a big red flag.
is SU ever going to end
Oh yeah I'm fully aware. I just think it's a shame because if CN just let them know it was getting a final season ahead of time, we would have gotten the vision for homeworld Sugar wanted AND it would have had ended on a bit more Steven Universey note.
Oh well.
The movie was definitely a better ending to the series than future
I really liked a lot of the concepts for Future (Steven having issues, getting corrupted into Stevenzilla, etc.) but in execution they were deeply flawed, as is the case for the series as a whole
The movie sort of seemed like a better version of the show. A tighter version of a redemption arc mostly without the townie filler episodes and hiatuses that would have dragged out the arc if Spinel had been introduced in the show
I thought you typed Steven University and I suddenly realized what the inevitable reboot is going to be called
I literally cannot understand why they had Steven go off and backpack across the USA in a van. Did they watch some movie with that ending where it made actual sense for the character's progression and decide to ape it?
Steven being a teacher in Little Home School was literally the perfect ending for his character. He can't go to college and he'd be wasted in an office job. There's nothing out in the world for Steven that isn't in Beach City with his friends. There's never been any implication that Steven wants more out of life than to help people and play video games, there's nothing specific out there for him. What, he's gonna get a job at a movie theater or a pizza place? That'd be a major disappointment or at least a major step down to know that the greatest hero of the gem wars is working at a Staples somwhere. Steven understands gems and he likes helping people. Steven being a counselor/teacher at Little Home School was the best possible ending for him considering his skills and character arc but they decided him just up and leaving was a good ending.for his character.
It's not about him leaving his friends and backpacking, it's about him taking his father's advice
That's the way I see it anyway
He wasn’t good at helping them. The Gems were better. Now he can start a new life and not be so dependent on people
Steven was good at helping gems. He wasn't perfect and he had issues trying to understand gems quite right, as noted when he tried to desperately to find a role for some gems or when he forced some of them out of their comfort zone, but Steven found Little Home School to be so stressful because he was in a scheduling position when Pearl or Peridot should have been setting all that up.
Nevertheless I can't imagine a world where Steven doesn't return to Beach City after one or two years of travel after realizing there's nothing out there for him once he's gotten over all the sights and sounds of the world.
It's actually Honestly, it's more about going outside his comfort zone and learn about himself. Beach City could be a great starting point, but eventually you grow curious about other cultures and how you will fare within those, and honestly, Bech City is just too little to learn about the world.
There's more in life than help and teach humanity to aliens, that's more true when you didn't too much but that, and eventually, if it makes you feel good, it just doesn't fill your spirit. And to be honest, Steven Universe tried to show he should make his own destiny, and the Gems, if it's great part of his life, it is not all.
I'm almost sure he will travel the world helping because he likes to do that, not because he has to.
He himself said he’s probably not coming back, he’ll probably have a nice home somewhere else and occasionally chat up the Gems, Connie and Greg
It's a kid moving away from his hometown, pretty standard and made sense to me.
Yeah
He’s also probably sucking a lot of dick at truck stops
What pisses me off is that they never revealed how the diamonds were created
Who honestly cared about that? It’s just trivia like all lore
I do, WHO CREATED THEM
Jesus
Steven has no skills outside of understanding the gems and liking helping people. I have no idea what he'd possibly do with his life unless it was helping either gems or people, and he's not getting a college education anytime soon. Steven's life has been pretty fantastical and bombastic since he was a child, so it ending on him leaving home without any prospects in life is disappointing to me since it means the most he could do is either backpack across the USA for a year or two and come home or just end up in a dead-end job. Sure, his dad has the money so that he'll never end up having to worry about covering costs, but coasting off Greg's money without at least using it to help people like as he was doing in Little Home School would be so infuriating an ending. Writing this, the best outcome would be for him to become a volunteer of some sort and a bit of a philanthropist, since then he'd still be doing something with his life, but I also just couldn't imagine them going with that route.
He’s strong, let him help people move. Also he can cure cancer and plays music
the Sneople did.
Then White rebelled and drove them off, its why the Gem Empire always maintained a big army of soldiers in case their creators ever came back, little did they know the Sneople have been planning revenge with their new race of slaves, the Metal Men.
All this and more to be revealed in Steven Universe: the Next Generations coming soon.
Steven’s road trip is fucking pointless, he’s not going to get anything out of it, it’s just a fucking road trip
I can tell you never went on a self discovery journey
I mean I'm still ultra confused what Steven was doing for years on Homeworld. Like he never talks about the minutia with his friends or family, nor the Diamonds when he goes back. Like what he did to grow as a person other than making friends with the Diamonds. Other than embiggening what change did Steven undergo from being alone in an alien environment until he starts going through his past trauma stuff in Future? Kids that go to summer camp come back having new experiences and learned things.
The obvious answer is confusing since any direct effort or even observation of reforming of the government would have to have gotten him familiar with bureaucracy. So he should have either understood managing little home school very well. Or have learned bad lessons he was trying to apply with a throw away mention of how he's not a full gem so the style of micromanaging everything 24 hours a day (or however long days are on Homeworld) might land for that.
Why would he discover himself? Wasn’t that the point of CYM?
>Wasn’t that the point of CYM?
Change your mind was a bit more literal. He finally realized he's his own person, now it's time to figure out who that person is
Change Your Mind was him leaning he wasn’t his mom and that he was Steven, this is more getting in depth to what he wants in life and who he is, deep down and shit
I support the thesis of Steve and Connie fucking could helped him in his issues befrore exploding.
Except he is a reincarnation of his mom
Just because you’re a reincarnation, doesn’t make you them. Korra wasn’t Aang, God knows she wasn’t
