Also, note that when Volleyball shows up in Peridot's horticulture class, she's always holding flowers in front of her eye.
And while she's taking a picture of Chert and Flint, she's facing away from the camera.

Other blink-and-you'll-miss details:

  • Onion has the Cheeseburger Backback. You know he stole it.
  • Ronaldo probably got back together with Jane.
  • Who but me would notice: Kofi's eyes went back to being brown.

Gosh, I can't believe it's over.

I really liked this ending. A bit cheesy, sure, but it worked for me. And the last episode was very sweetly low-key. smile

Also very glad Steven has a therapist now.

When we're done, there won't be anything left.

Did the last episode seem like it was a few minutes short to anyone else?

I want to know what kind of parent Steven would be compared to Greg,maybe he'd be firm but fair in contrast to Greg?

Also according to that smithing scene - I guess Yellow Pearl is getting married.

I totally missed that she said "wedding armor", though that doesn't necessarily mean Yellow Pearl is getting married. She could have just been a model, or Bismuth could have meant "armor for attending a wedding" (i.e. what Bismuth wore).

Huh, so nothing with Rose at all. When they said how they can't get through to him, I was expecting that to be the opening to show Rose somehow.

It is funny how some characters made their last voiced appearance over a year ago. In Rose/Pink's case was July 2018.

[up][up] Again that's part of the issue with the way Future wrapped up. I get that Pink's history is mostly done and it shouldn't be Steven's burden, but trying to carry the burdens Pink created and dealing with his diamond powers emerging + his outburst at Greg suggests that some of the stress was part of that.

I dunno, I get that stemming discussion of Pink might of helped for a while (but then that was the issue to begin with). But Pearl and Greg (most of all) never really had a proper closure talk. "It's Over Isn't It" is close as it gets, but then that was more about Pearl and Greg's rivalry and Pearl accepting it was time to let go of her feelings, more than them really reconciling with Steven about Pink.

The finale was pretty good, but I'm disappointed that we never got to see Emerald again. Rebecca Sugar lied.

#60789: Mar 27th 2020 at 6:14:07 PM

[up] When did she say Emerald would come back???

Okay, now that I have... mostly calmed down, random thought-string time!

  • Those shrub Stevens really did just want to help, bless their leafy hearts
  • I love how they played with Onion's ambiguous humanity by having him just casually taking part in Gem activities.
  • The pity party can be summarized as thus;
    The Diamonds & Spinel: I suck!
    Connie: You all suck, but that's not the point right now!
  • Honestly I feel like "Everything's Fine" and "I Am My Monster" would've been better as one half-hour, and if things were taken a little more slowly, but the ending of the latter was great.
  • Speaking of, of course Etienne's promo is the big super dramatic "anime showdown" one. I expect nothing less from him.
  • Amethyst's complaint of there only being one save file is something I really felt
  • Hey, Mr. Frowney! I'm surprised they brought him of all people back for the finale.

Also, note that when Volleyball shows up in Peridot's horticulture class, she's always holding flowers in front of her eye.
There is one shot where you can see some cracks in her face though.

(Beside's Bismuth change of voice actor being pretty jarring.)
There was a change? I didn't notice anything different.

And one other thing I wanted to point out; Flint and Chert were originally characters meant to be part of the Off Colors but got scrapped because the group was already pretty big, so it's cool to see they still did something with those two in the end.

Will say I would have liked it if Steven and Connie went on a break from their relationship. That way they can enjoy their trip together without letting any Steven issues come back even with him seeing a therapist.

[up] Steven said it was a couple months since "I Am My Monster" during "The Future", so they could've for all we know, but either way it's probably been enough time to work through that.

There was a change? I didn't notice anything different.
From Uzo Aduba to Miriam Hyman. The former was notably more raspy. (Hyman voiced Bismuth in Unleash the Light, which was presumably recorded after Future even though it came out later.)

And one other thing I wanted to point out; Flint and Chert were originally characters meant to be part of the Off Colors but got scrapped because the group was already pretty big
I remember the podcast mentioning the Off Colors were planned to also have a pair of quartzes, but completely forgot they mentioned their names were Flint and Chert.

Penn ward I don't know if he's involved still.
Not to derail the conversation, but Ward was never a central creative figure in Adventure Time—he was only even showrunner for season four.

[up][up] while nobody should feel obligated to stay to deal with mental health issues. Connie's decision works for her as a character, she's mature enough to see that Steven's proposal wasn't coming from the right place at this time, It wasn't the time, that doesn't mean it won't ever will be. But only once Steven is genuinely asking, and not because he's scared of being abandoned again or deciding he wants to be Stevonnie forever rather than deal with himself.

She could of walked away so easy, but she wanted to and made it very clear she wanted to continue having a relationship with Steven. As someone who's had depression, I can relate with how Steven was feeling/acting as I did similar things when my depression was at it's worst.

Well other than the whole turning into a massive diamond monster thing, but there were certainly days I might of felt that way ha.

I mean half of Steven's family has been running from dealing with stuff. So it's a little new that someone isn't running or getting super upset. Rather than fighting physically to protect him, Connie ends up being the one who most gets what's going on with him.

That wiki entry was a ridiculous misquote. It was an article about Monsoon's casting that didn't involve any interview with Sugar, and Emerald's return was just the writer's expectation.

Dammit, Steven Universe, you just had to follow the weird sequel trend of people leaving each other, didn't you?
