anti-alias is the blur at the edge of lines in digital art to make it look more smooth and real. the thing is that undertale is supposed to be PIXEL ART which is NOT supposed to be anti aliased at all.

Well, I think that as long as Rebecca and the others are our shepherds, we should not want.

Just kidding, I have no idea.

I really like the idea of Jasper as a farmer. It reminds me of Thanos.

Wouldn't it be great if Jasper just redeems herself offscreen, learns how Earth is worth protecting, and is willing to apologize to the C Gs before even bumping into them or Steven? And the arc would be the C Gs learning to accept that she's changed? I'm sure they'll do something similar between Peridot and Lapis. But I think it would be nice (or even funny) to see even Steven be unsure whether or not to believe someone who says they've changed.

[up]I dunno. Having a character like Jasper just magically being redeemed offscreen feels lazy. It'd be one thing if they had it be a subplot where Jasper is away from the CG but we still see her develop and redeem, not just having all this development happen offscreen.

The idea of the Crystal Gems coming to realize Jasper has changed does sound interesting, but only if we see Jasper change onscreen. And no, having flashbacks despite finding out about her Heel–Face Turn first wouldn't help.

[up] Now, that I think about it, I guess that's the inherent problem with a show being locked to one character's perspective. You can't show someone's arc without them interacting with the main character. So Jasper can't have an arc without interacting with the rest of the Gems, or else it'll look lazy.

I guess I didn't think that idea through. :/

But imagine a flashback like Garnet's Universe where Jasper is telling her tale and we see Steven's interpretation of it.

[up][up]Yeah. I can see maybe their being A Day in the Limelight episode if her redemption arc happened without the Crystal Gems, but that would be about it. It'd be hard to fit in two plots(What's going on currently with the Crystal Gems and what's going on with Jasper) in one 11 minute episode without the pacing being ruined. It might work if the show had 22 minutes for a single episode.

[up]Again, I don't think having a character like Jasper redeemed off-screen and we only see how she had her Heel–Face Turn after finding out that she was redeemed would not be a good idea.

There were a few chapters in Harry Potter that weren't seen from Harry's perspective because Rowling realized how restrictive that perspective could be at times, so she was willing to bend the rules a bit. Just sayin'.

[up]True. I know I wouldn't mind some Jasper A Day in the Limelight episodes where she's still separated from the Crystal Gems.

If she does crawl out of Earth's crack I'm expecting complete annihilation of Watermelon Steven society before anything resembling redemption.

Even villains require stress relief.

I doubt Jasper would just start killing all the watermelon Steven's. She's yet to do anything worse than Lapis and Peridot, and no one would expect them to do that.

I'm betting she'll interact with Steven somehow during Alone At Sea. Maybe in a similar way to how he saw Malachite while sleeping.

Lapis tried to drown two kids, kill the gems, and potentially caused massive problems by stealing the Earth's water. Peridot tried to murder the gems and took part in developing/keeping an eye on The Cluster. Jasper tried to kill the gems, and imprisoned Steven.

All three homeworld gems have done bad shit, but we've seen zero proof that Jasper would suddenly become a homicidal maniac and murder all the watermelons.

Circumstance. Nothing but circumstance of the situation.

Super Watermelon Island proved that's exactly what Jasper would do...because they remind her of Stephen.

Don't ruin this for me, it's like catharsis or something.

Jasper headbutted a child, threw said child (and the rest of the Crystal Gems) into jail, prevented Lapis from flying off at the end of Jailbreak, coerced Lapis into fusing with her, and has already murdered several Watermelon Stevens as Malachite. In addition to working for a violent, imperialistic ruler who wants to destroy the Earth.

So. Yeah.

Saying it just "Circumstances" doesn't excuse there actions.
