Steven Universo Futuro

The original series had an undeniable charm. However, the new iteration left me often groaning over plot and dialogue choices. Young Steven somehow seems more mature than future Steven who unexplainably lost the ability to communicate his feelings or handle his emotions.

This tends to be the basis for most of the problems in each episode, which is at odds with the attempt to set an older tone, and address more mature issues.

It's great to spend more time watching some beloved characters, but the previous show had a great formula where they would solve problems over the course of an episode or arc. Unfortunately for this show, the problem is Steven.

Magic tricks are only interesting as long as you don't know how they're done, the moment they're explained you get the "oh!" satisfaction for just a mere moment that retroactively ruins the magic trick.

Replace magic trick with pretty much every concept or character the show (not just this spin off but also the original) explained away for no real reason, all for cheap satisfaction that doesn't lead anywhere or stay.

As for this spin off itself - it's bad, maybe a little better than the movie, the main conflict is solved in a way so utterly moronic and on brand you'd think it a phantasy of a 6 year old who just had an espresso with a whole tablespoon of sugar, the only place this show and it's world belongs is as far as away from the original team as possible.

STEVEN UNIVERSE FUTURE (2019-2020) was a cute and colorful animated cartoon show, about friendship and family. It takes an overused, generic story (intergalactic heroes are called to fight and save earth) and makes it unique and original, quirky and random.

"The series focuses on the aftermath of the events of Steven Universe, where humans and Gems coexist in harmony after the end of the war between the Crystal Gems and Homeworld."

Overall, the colorful animation is cute and aesthetic, random and humorous. The characters are quirky and likable. Definitely not what I had been expecting. Certainly worth the watch.

I thought perhaps this would not be needed, we had a resolution already. But I think this added a lot. It wrapped it up and put everyone on a path. Steven has to get through some stuff yet.

Beautiful music, animation, writing and stuff like the original show. I loved all the cameos from the first show.

You should definitely watch this after you've seen the other show and the movie.

Great for anyone of any age. I loved every second. I wanted more but at the same time I felt it was sufficient. They don't need more. I might go start over with the original show from episode one now.

I think a spin off show about Lars and his crew could be interesting if they wanted to do more.

I don't think I've ever written a review to anything before, and I don't even think I'll do so, but I want to let my thoughts out, a little bit.

I'm your average 16-year-old, you know, the ones that have identity issues, having a crisis trying to find their place in life. Now that I write it down, it does sound weird, but all this has been putting a toll on me. I've never been good at processing my thoughts or my emotions.

This show encapsulated everything I've been going through lately. I don't think I've ever baby cried like this to anything before. I loved the other seasons, but this was something that I needed. Being afraid of showing a part of yourself that you are too afraid of others seeing is really tough. Guess it's time to think.
