Posted 6 Aug 2015 It's not even really the characters themselves as much as the world around them. Like the two big ones are Garnet and Amethysts weapons. Garnet had these really cool Golden gauntlets, and amethyst had a light whip. Then in episode 1 proper the gauntlets got big, blocky and pastel-y and now the whip is sort of like a thorn whip with several tails. They almost feel kinda...nerfy? But I guess that's probably easier on the animators and much easier for toys, so its not something I begrudge them. And that is a very minor gripe. Didn't stop me from watching 10 episodes in a row.

Posted 8 Aug 2015 Now about 70% through season 1. Great show. Last thing that happened was the Mirror Gem/Lapis Lazuli episode. Some interesting implications there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 8 Aug 2015 Mirror/Ocean Gem is where I really started to get interested in the show yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 8 Aug 2015 I'm entirely caught up. I had watched the pilot a while back, and had always thought the show looked pretty interesting. It wasn't until SU was becoming super popular on tumblr and I saw some stuff about one of the later episodes that I decided to start watching - and then I fell in love with it.I like all of the gems, but I think I generally consider Pearl to be my favourite.

Posted 9 Aug 2015 I kinda got spoiled as to Garnet's origins, but I will say, it does give an interesting insight in this Stevonnie episode. T1g likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 9 Aug 2015 Yeah. It hasn't massively detracted from the experience or anything though. If any thing, only added some interesting context Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 9 Aug 2015 And that's season 1 finished. Jasper was a fantastic villain. I hope she stays trapped for a season or 2, it'll make it all the better when she makes her grand return. In the mean time Peridot and...Yellow Diamond? I assume thats the Ruler of the Gem homeworld.Gonna watch something else for a little while and then get started on season 2. Probably when they get off of hiatus Pizzza likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
