[up]Well, I don't think it's annoying anymore. I've been indoctrinated too completely for that.

I've got Frozen, Spectacular Spider-Man, Crash, Spyro, and Paper Mario fanfics.

I'm surprised I'm not the only one who was kind of "eh" on the theme song.

They don't seem too "eh" on it now, so that didn't last long.

Good to see you in another thread apart from the frozen one

So what is your favorite gem? And what aspect of the show did you like most?

[up][up]I guess it would be:

1.- I dunno
2.- The main character. I dunno, I just like Steven.

I wanna answer too!

My faves are Peridot and Connie (not a gem, but still awesome)

My favorite part of the show are the character arcs. For a show with such a dramatic, intricate plot I find it really cool that the show manages to be mainly character driven instead of mainly plot driven. This show has character arcs I've never seen in a children's show before, and they do it so well

My favorite Gem is Ruby. All the Rubies.

My favorite not-Gem is a tie between Lion and Connie. With Greg in second.

My favorite part of the show is the character interactions and how they grow and develop.

My various fanfics.

Pearl and Lapis.

The characters and how it plays with your expectations and emotions.

The answer to both of those questions is Pearl.

Good answers.

My favorite aspect is how in-depth the characters are. Almost no other children's show is brave enough to show not just each character's likable attributes, not only their funny flaws, but also the ugliest side of their personality and how this side can badly hurt their loved ones.

My favorite Gem is Amethyst. She's funny.

My favorite aspect of the show? I guess the detailed backstory and how much focus is put on the psychology of the characters. I always loved speculating about what drives them. Although by this point we know them well enough that I haven't had a new speculation in like, ever.

My favorite Gem is Garnet. She's the master of comedy.

Favorite aspect of the show? Geez, there's so much I love about this show. And I agree that the depth and flaws and just sheer realness of the characters is what I love so much about it. All of the Gems are flawed, painfully so, but the show addresses these flaws very well and incredibly realistically. And it manages to do that while being incredibly optimistic and hopeful, which is not easy to do at all. It completely obliterates the idea that optimistic shows are inherently shallow and have shallow and barely flawed characters, and that if a show has depth and realistic characters, it has to be dark and gritty.

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

wild mass guess Difference between CG and other Rubys is that most of them get crushed one way or another before they're 50, and she's over 5000.

Rubies don't usually survive for more than 50 years? But why would they die so- Oh. Right.

Besides the year thing, that might very well be the case...maybe not, but still.

They're just low level grunt soldiers, they get poofed and shattered all the times.

HW culture is based on keeping the lives of their gems brutish nasty and short, except for a very few Saps that they hold onto tightly. But not so tightly as to risk their own precious Diamond hides as seen in The Answer.

...and that's why they have a need to constantly create new gems...net gain for every time they shatter the un-fresh recruits, before they get that rebel mindset.

Ergo because the Diamonds act physically vulnerable they're leaving themselves wide open to a social overthrow. Fortunately they've never faced a charismatic challenger.

You mean mental...emotionally vulnerable? Physically they're still the strongest.
