Well, that's not really surprising. I'm good with Bismuth, but as unlikely as it is I'd prefer that Jasper goes off on her own or something. She doesn't have to stay an enemy, but I don't want her to be like Lapis and Peridot. Actually have her go and see the world or something, like Lapis said she wanted to do, but never actually got around to for some reason.

No complete 180 turn for the Jasper gem...

[up][up]She never said she wanted to do that...

Most of her travelling was exactly in the episode I assume you're talkin' about.

Lapis was just avoiding the Crystal Gems, not going anywhere in particular. Lapis was stuck with no where to go and would have wandered aimlessly if Steven hadn't given her direction. She still didn't actually like the Earth at all.

I am annoyed that both have them have been pretty restricted to Barn scenes though. Especially Peridot who should be a full member of the Crystal Gems but is never treated as such, even when her skillset would be incredibly useful (the Out of this World arc.)

I think Rebecca Sugar stated in a recent interview that got linked a few pages back about them returning.
"You haven't seen the last of them." Season six has not been announced, and I'm pretty sure they make those things public almost immediately, so one has to assume they're coming back this season.

as unlikely as it is I'd prefer that Jasper goes off on her own or something.
Her next major appearance is probably going to relate to her corruption. All the corrupted gems may well remain uncured up to the season finale, even if it is the series finale.

She never said she wanted to do that...
She was planning on leaving Earth entirely, but came back the next day because she had nowhere to go. Then Steven suggested a bunch of different places on Earth to live, and Lapis decided on the barn.

[up]True, true, about Jasper. Honestly that's always struck me as an end of series or close to it kind of thing. Which it could still be.

[up][up]

They might not have announced that there will be a season 6.

But they also haven't announced that season 5 will be the last season. Could somebody refresh my memory. I know that Adventure Time is ending soon. When did they announce that? I mean, was it something like "This currently airing season will be the last one" or was it more like "the next season will be the last one"? Same with other ending shows, like Uncle Grandpa.

Because I can see CN waiting until the perfect moment to announce a renewal. At any rate, I suspect we'll know something either way after the SDCC panel.

@51314 Hmm... Well, as noted by others, it'd probably be from a written account by someone else - the other Crystal Gems (I don't think) even knew about Lion prior to Steven finding him, so it wouldn't make sense to have one of them tell it in a flashback.

That said, it was already established that Buddy Buddwick knew Rose and saw her with lions. It wouldn't surprise me if a heretofore-lost diary of his gets discovered, and that said diary describes Lion becoming what he is today. If I were in charge, that's how I'd handle such a flashback episode.

As for whether or not I think they'd actually do it... I guess it depends on just how many ideas they have on their plate. I could easily see that getting shelved if there was just too much to pack in a season. I'm going to guess "unlikely" on the theory that there's other stories to tell first.

Huh, Squaredot. So that might mean canon Peridots all have different hairdos?

@51332 I mean, not all Rubies or Amethysts have the same hair. Pretty similar hair, sure (for that matter, both shown Peridots have quadrangle hair... just different quadrangles).

A summary of the panel + Q&A. Spoilers, obviously, so here's the cross-post to the leak thread, just in case.

For one of the non-spoiler tidbits, apparently Padparadscha was designed as the Princess Peach to Sapphire's Zelda, and that's adorable.

But they also haven't announced that season 5 will be the last season.
It's likely not been decided yet. Or they have decided the show ends at five seasons, but are keeping a lid on it for publicity reasons.

I know that Adventure Time is ending soon. When did they announce that? I mean, was it something like "This currently airing season will be the last one" or was it more like "the next season will be the last one"?
It was announced Adventure Time would end at 9 seasons on September 2016, right before the season 7 finale, leaving 48 quarter hours in total yet to air. However, that announcement seems much earlier than usual, as it was just two months after the last season was greenlit. For comparison, it was announced Clarence was ending a few months before its last season start (thought we don't know how this last season is going to be).

there are many different shapes peridots can come in like this handy chart shows
Technically, they're a material, so they can be cut into any shape. Though both Peridots gem have the same gem shape anyway.

"Squaridot" clearly has limb enhancers, but the seems to be significantly bigger than the other Peridot anyway.

There's going to be a livestream Q&A... apparently? Here's the link, but it hasn't started and there's no time posted.

Did someone screw up? It says it's supposed to be live from Comic-Con, so people were assuming it would be a livestream of the panel, but that already ended.

OK, the panel already had a Q&A, which makes me think they were supposed to do a livestream, messed up somehow, and now they're just going to play a recording (even though they're still calling it a livestream). Hopefully someone made one!

EDIT: No, it seems the Q&A livestream is something else done in a back room.

So it seems like they're not putting up a video of the panel. Anyone put up an audience recording? I'd rather see even that than just a description first.
