AWKWARD ZOMBIE

And keep in mind, the point of the episode was to do something because YOU want to, not because others expect you to. Sadie was embarrassed at first, but the reason she withdrew was because it was no longer what she wanted to do. She wasn't being pushed into taking a chance at a hobby anymore. She was pushed into doing it because other people wanted to help her and make the decisions for her.

I think the episode suffered from pacing/too much stuff to process issues. The main problem of the episode being Sadie's relationship with her mom and Steven's learning to not be so pushy with people kinda gets glossed over and we don't see any real resolution. How is Steven going to grow from this point and how has it affected his relationship with Sadie? Is this going to affect his relationship with the gems aswell? It just kinda leaves a lot of things up in the air.

Also, I feel the whole dress thing was less "the town accepting Steven for wearing a dress" and more "the town accepting Steven for being Steven. If the worst thing they did to him after doing a Beachapalooza act nude was require everyone to have clothes in their acts afterwards, I'm sure they're pretty understanding of him and his antics to not laugh about it or get upset. The vibe was just "that's so Steven", and that's it.

If you pay attention Gunga/Nanafua (at least I think it was her) mentions expecting the whole time that Steven would be the secret final act. That really plays into people just expecting the unexpected when it comes to Steven at Beachapalooza.

The focus shouldn't be on Steven in a dress anyway, it wasn't about either appealing to or mocking crossdressers, it was about Steven going up there so that the people wouldn't be disappointed AND Sadie wouldn't have to do something she didn't want to do. It was played as lighthearted but still pretty meaningful. There is really nothing else to it.

I agree that the ending wasn't exactly the greatest of resolutions. But, whatever, if it didn't have anything left to flesh out then we can assume the best of it. How exactly it will affect future episodes, if even at all, I don't know and I don't really care, not like every episode has to go that deep.

Um.

I think the episode was good. Good lesson, Steven absolutely rocked the dress. I noticed a possible lesbian couple which is cool??

In the crowd you can see two women standing over a child, it's not implied but it's at least a small hint, since more and more shows have been including this message.

So what is Steven Universe and why is it so popular? I've been seeing it EVERYWHERE, but I'm not inclined to watch it to find out what's supposedly so great about it.

Then I guess it will remain a mystery


why should we put in the effort to give you a synopsis if you don't want to watch even one episode? They're only ten minutes long.

"I want to know what this is but I don't want to watch it"
?????????

If you can't get a good enough assumption from "seeing it everywhere", not to mention the excessive amount of commercials and TV spots it's gotten, and you don't want to watch it, why would you even bother?

put simply, you physichally can't explain Steven Universe well enough to get you interested in it without losing the reason to watch it in the first place.

Just watch it. Don't look up anything more aobut it. Just watch it.

I thought the show was about space lesbians?

Yes good there's a thread for this

I don't know what makes me happier, smol Peridot or the inevitible redemption arc
