Lunar Sea Spire

GC13 and Sophia put on their sunscreen and head to a tropical island to discuss Island Adventure (underneath the molten lava moon, of course).

While Steven was being just as funny as always (if not more!), Lars and Sadie really were the stars of this episode. Lars may have been a sourpuss, but being trapped on …

GC13 and Hunter discuss another old favorite episode: Secret Team (definitely another episode worthy of a gold star).

A fun episode showing how Amethyst, Steven, and Garnet used to be earlier in the series (less responsible, less mature, and less warm, respectively), Secret Team is a great episode to watch if you want to appreciate some character …

GC13 and Sophia discuss another favorite: Space Race.

Everybody loves Pearl, and this was a really good Pearl episode: there was so much emotion, it showed off Pearl’s qualities and her flaws so well, and she was reminded of how much she appreciates Steven.

Just in case Mirror Gem and Ocean Gem left any doubt about whether Gems were …

Ken and GC13 discuss House Guest, the episode that had the unfortunate duty of following Ocean Gem (let’s face it: not the easiest episode to follow).

Coming after a big episode wasn’t House Guest‘s only problem though: it seems to have a more basic cartoon plot than most episodes of Steven Universe. Plus, apparently, people don’t respond well …

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter discuss Ocean Gem, the second half of Steven Universe’s mid-season finale.

While we may not know much about Lapis yet, even after another full season, imagine how much worse it would have been to have the series end on Ocean Gem. Not only would we still be in the dark about a whole lot of …

GC13 discusses the first episode of Steven Universe’s first mid-season pre-finale: Mirror Gem.

Ah, to go back to a time when we as a fandom were so young, so innocent. “We didn’t know what we were getting into.” Or at least GC13 didn’t. But how could we have known so early? (Particularly at a time when …

Sophia and GC13 discuss the first episode this site was around to post about (and serious contender for Best Funny Faces): An Indirect Kiss.

Which was your funny face? Steven?? Steven.? Steven!? And those are only the Connie faces. Steven and Pearl were really on their games as well. It’s alright if you can’t choose a …

GC13 and Sophia discuss an old favorite: Monster Buddies. Centipuppy forever! (Eventually…)

As the first episode of the (unofficial) Saliva Saga, this is the first inkling we get of Steven as a healer (though it won’t be until next week that we discuss the episode that really delves into it).

It’s also a touching story of Steven …

Sophia, GC13, and Ken discuss the episode currently holding the show record for most characters killed off on-screen: Steven and the Stevens.

Ken may not be able to get past (an alternate version of) Steven killing off so many alternate versions of himself, but if Steven and the Pompadours wasn’t going to happen, then there probably …

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter discuss that wacky episode: Joking Victim. It has fire breathing and a giant bowl of ice cream (but somewhere in Delmarva there’s a bigger bowl), so you know it’s going to be good.

After the obligatory beating up on Lars comes a discussion of Steven Universe’s hottest tune: Do or Donut! Mr. …
