This has probably been said a bunch of times by other people already but. I’ve honestly been so bored with SU lately. Other than our most recent Steven Bomb and Room for Ruby, I’ve been picking up my phone a little ways into the eps because I can’t focus on what’s going on, or can’t see what the point is. Granted, I have some serious attention deficit problems, but I used to be able to watch SU just fine, and I don’t have this problem with many other shows.
(putting under cut since this turned out to be a long ass post)
idk it’s just like.... ever since we got more into plot, the filler/slice of life episodes have been much less interesting to me, I guess.Â
Now I know some people don’t think like that, they say “Steven needs to learn about his human side” and I agree! Steven’s human and gems aspects are equally important parts of him.Â
I think the issue, at least for me, is where these episodes are placed. We got a lot of human eps in the beginning, which was fine because there wasn’t a whole lot at stake. All we knew was these aliens who call themselves the Crystal Gems live on Earth with a little boy and they go on adventures, catch monsters, destroy old buildings that have no use anymore. Occasionally we got some lore, and maybe a teeny bit of what could be considered plot. No big deal. Human eps were interesting because we got to see what Steven and the Gems were up to when they weren’t dealing with monsters and such.
Then the plot started forming, and it was okay at first, I seem to recall a fairly equal amount of plot/lore-related eps and human eps.
But now it’s like?? There’s a ton of shit at stake, tons of different ways this plot can go. We’ve met the Diamonds, the Rubies are (or were) chasing down the Gems, Jasper and Bismuth are bubbled, the Cluster has been placated. We should be mostly plot right now, with some filler in between to give us a break. But it’s almost the opposite? We’ve been getting a lot of filler with plot in between.Â
And the plot we’ve been getting just seems really... inconsequential. The Peridemption arc (my favorite recent arc), while having Peridot’s redemption, hasn’t done all that much with it? Peri’s just hanging out in a barn with Lapis (whose arc with Jasper also went nowhere...). Yeah, we also got to meet Yellow Diamond, but... I feel like we should have started picking up the pace with the story once that happened. Why didn’t YD send a team of gems to ensure that the rogue Peridot hadn’t tried to sabotage the Cluster? Granted, she evidently doesn’t know that there are a few rebel gems still living on Earth, and probably figures a Peridot and maybe a Jasper can’t really do much to such a large geoweapon. But in that case, wouldn’t she still want to try to pick up and punish a gem guilty of pretty serious insubordination? It might be a good way to get the plot moving again. Whatever happened afterward, there should have been some sense of urgency, considering we’d finally met one of the Diamonds.
And the recent Homeworld arc? Sure, we learned about how the YD and BD feel about PD’s demise, and what they’re doing with humans, and where the Rose Quartz gems are--which is interesting stuff to know, and will probably be relevant later--but after the arc, right back to status quo. Still no sense of urgency, even though Diamonds are aware that the Cluster hasn’t emerged yet (which you think they might be suspicious about), there are humans trapped in a zoo that need saving, and all the Rose Quartz gems might be in danger considering that YD seems itching to get rid of them. And of course the Rubies are still stuck in space, in danger of being shattered themselves by debris while they’re in orbit.
It’s the same with major episodes, too. We’ve heard like ONE (pretty disingenuous) line about Bismuth since she got bubbled again, and the crew made a big deal out of that episode, acting like she was going to permanently join the team. Why couldn’t that happen? Since it didn’t happen, why was there never any discussion of whether she was right or wrong? And especially now that Steven knows Rose shattered PD, why haven’t they unbubbled her yet? It seems like they just don’t wanna change the way things are going.
In general, in regards to plot: There’s no sense of urgency, nor any evidence of changing circumstances. This is bad because stories are built on conflict and changing circumstances and how people react to them. So far in SU, conflict arises, subsides, and is rarely if ever even mentioned again. Things rarely change, whether it’s just situations becoming more serious or adding new members to the team. We barely even get to see the characters reflecting on what has happened.
And then there’s the filler. Or more human-focused episodes, as some people object to the “filler” label.
Like I said, at the beginning, slice of life was fine because nothing major was happening. Now, however, we’re getting a lot of slice of life with less focus on the plot, which is not how a plot based show is supposed to be written.
That’s not to say that I think these episodes focusing on Steven’s relationships with the people of Beach City are all unimportant. An idea I’ve been entertaining in my head for a while is that of the BC residents somehow either joining the Crystal Gems in saving the gems of Homeworld or proudly defending themselves, Steven, and his family from Homeworld. Because Steven’s spent all these “filler” episodes caring for his friends and helping them! Why wouldn’t they do the same for him, especially when humanity is in danger?
Think Super Watermelon Island--without the little watermelon people helping Alexandrite, it would have been a lot harder, if not impossible, to beat Malachite. (In all honesty, if SU does go this route with the humans, I think SWI could be some pretty cool foreshadowing in regards to that.)
In that case, the slice of life episodes would tie in the main plot and we’d see how Steven’s kind attitude toward the people of BC impact what he has to do in regards to Homeworld in the future.
If they don’t go that route, then I’m not really sure what the point of the slice of life episodes is. I find most of the recent ones pretty boring. But I think that’s really more of a personal issue than an objective one, though others might have other ideas as to why there’s a problem with recent episodes of this type.
Anyway. That’s why I’m bored with SU currently I guess. I really hope we get some decent plot soon. Other than Room for Ruby I can hardly be bothered to watch new episodes in a timely fashion anymore. And considering how much I used to love this show and how much it meant to me and how excited I used to be to watch it, that’s really sad.
