I thought it was alright, though I'll confess I was somewhat spoiled by some leaked stuff.
I'm more interested in what will come from this...
Oh God! Natural light!@Adric De Psycho: What ideology would that be? Could you explain it to me?
@47723: ... Cartoon Network US using Brazilian memes? What is this thievery!?
That aside, I... think Cartoon Network Brazil is very memetic. Or at least it tries to, I don't pay much attention to its social media. I know Regular Show has a gaming channel, and they frequently post images with captions on their Facebook page, emulating memes but not necessarily using them.
Holy crap this episode. Season 4 redeemed.
I'm half expecting Leggy to show up and try to bite Amethyst's face off with the way these Rubies are going. Not just wanting her ship back, but going out of her way to deliberately hurt Steven for no reason other than shits and giggles. She's almost as messed as Eyeball. Up until the last second I was convinced she was just gonna be innocently doing wrong stuff but she's just a stone cold mofo.
Now this is how Lapis should be rather than that crap in New Crystal Gems. The bitterness and anger in seeing other people be happy and wondering why you're so broken that you can't do it is so real to me. That crazy laugh at the end where she's proven correct; that she's right to be broken and Navy is just as broken as her, speaks volumes. Probably the best Lapis has been since Alone At Sea.
More excuses for Lesbian Farmers Peridot and Lapis is always good. What was up with Lapis' epic pompadour through the ep, though.
Jeez. I had a feeling something bad was gonna happen, but I thought it was gonna be like, Pumpkin dies or something. Also, I totally called Navy having a Beware the Nice Ones moment!
Also, when do you think she came up with that plan? While she was floating through space, or when she saw Steven and Garnet?

Giving you the short version: imperfections are OK in animation. Bakshi was a famous animator and the mentor for Ren and Stimpy creator John K, his style was really crude and gritty as a way to defy the Disney style (hell he once fired a guy who got onto him for being off model), and he's a big influence on a lot of today's animators for TV thanks to kickstarting storyboard driven cartoons with The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse back in the 1980's.

To be honest, it felt like she could've came up with that plan at any time...like the moment Steven told her where her ship was.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.That's true. Tiger Philantropist and Rocknaldo looked perfectly fine. They looked good. This was just one of the weird ones. Like, the last three Barn Buddies episodes were like this. Not my style.
But! The episode itself was really good. And yeah, I can see how Navy was supposed to be creepy, but she's just as charming while she's trying to be creepy. I like it.
I like bitter-but-not-taking-it-out-on-others Lapis a super lot, too.
I do worry that they did just put the Rubies back on a bus, but I'm really okay with how they resolved it. Even if they never become regular characters, at least Navy can rescue them from the cold, lonely grasp of space. It's a good resolution.
Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.How unfair is it to everyone else that YOU want to use your “artistic freedom” instead of your job while everybody else does what they were hired to do?
Seriously, if you think the drawings are bad just say they're bad by their own merits, not because the diverge from some design you arbitrarily consider best because it's on some piece of official art.
Honestly, complaining about the show getting off model and shit is like complaining about Ren and Stimpy going off model. Sometimes that off model feel works. Somebody once pointed out how Steven looking so short in some shots of Alone at Sea helps to accentuate just how friggin' massive and terrifying Jasper is. If there was consistent models, it wouldn't have worked nearly as effectively.
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?Besides the dim one, the other 2 Rubles probably wouldn't have even tried to gain trust.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I thought this would happen but it happened so well I wasn't even disappointed. Plus, that Lapis character moment.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersI mean, if it's intentional, it's okay if animation isn't "perfect". That doesn't make it good, nor bad. It's a stylistic choice.
So far, I think one occasional problem that bugs me is when eyes are drawn as commas (a black ellipsis and eyebrows). I don't have a problem when it seems like it's done intentionally - such as when the characters are far away from the camera -, but I think I've caught some scenes where it wasn't. Or, if it actually was done intentionally, sometimes it feels out of place to me because I think the characters don't seem far away enough from the camera. In short, it breaks my suspension of disbelief regarding the visual style of the show.
I'm interested that Garnet seems to imply that Navy could have gone the other way
Also that the panic and dump button is far away from the pilot is weird.

Forever liveblogging the AvengersMaybe she will once she's alone in space and can't find the others rubies and she can't return to homeworld alone because they don't have jasper or the rest of her squad
So she goes on a space adventure!
Edit:Would the diamonds listen to them though?I can see them having an 'Aw crap' moment when they find out the rebels are still alive along with leader,and since homeworld is currently facing a resource shortage they may not to immediately want to attack earth again if they think its crawling with rebels

@Alderic and Karkat, it helps that the Gems are confirmed shapeshifters.
