OMGOMGOMGOMG.

Part of me wants to say we don't need to turn everything in a sexual/romantic relationship. Then part of me thinks I'm thinking too cis and if it were Mr. Smiley and Ms. Frowny I'd have assumed their was a romantic relationship automatically. And then that first part of me says that's fucked up dude, that we don't…

I've been wondering that for awhile (ya know, like in general why are the humans so nonchalant yet inexperienced with the Gems and their presence). I hope it has a real answer.

Oh man, they got somebody from Studio Trigger? That's awesome! I thought there was something familiar about the animation, now it makes sense. My two favorite anime are Gurren Lagann and Kill la Kill.

I know I for one will be starting to use "I'm feeling pretty Bojack right now" when I'm depressed.

So we got the location for the strawberry battlefield, and more cryptic lion clues.

I love Sardonyx, but this episode was just all over the place for me.

I actually loved the Road Runner references a lot, but I just hope that this doesn't mean Peridot won't be poofed anytime soon. I really want to see her with a new design, and see where she puts the star. It wouldn't have worked here, and it would've messed with the Looney Tune pacing, but still….

I did Anime Boston once, was not super impressed (though that was probably situational). I grew up in Northern VA, and now live in PA, so Baltimore obviously makes more sense for me anyway. Been going to Otakon almost every year since 2005, missing I think just 4 summers in that time. I've dropped other cons from…

Yeah you're right, we haven't had Garnet time in awhile. She's not my favorite Gem, but she's objectively the best Gem, so screen time would be nice.

What a weird low-key episode for the season finale. Dat anime-esque playing-the-ending-theme-during-the-last-moments-of-the-finale tho.

Out of curiosity, any east coast anime fans here going to Otakon in Baltimore this weekend? It’s the biggest east coast anime convention, it’s the second biggest anime con in the US, and based on the way Anime Expo counts its people, Otakon is probably the actual biggest US anime con.

I mean, before Onion Friend I didn't necessarily believe Onion was a secret gem, but certainly thought it would be cool if he was White Diamond in disguise the whole time.

Let them stay platonic, and be another shining example of the possibility of a male/female platonic friendship along with Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy. The world needs that.

I mean, their bodies are hard light projections anyway. Making a flashlight beam seems like it would be the easiest possible thing for a gem to do.

Bow chicka wow wow

Yay! More exposition! I'm not being sarcastic, I love exposition!

Also, yes, I watched a good chunk of Girl Meets World unfortunately. And all I took from that was that Corey is an extremely irresponsible teacher, and that everyone involved in the production must have been on shrooms because every line, facial expression, and bit of blocking seemed so bizarrely inhuman that I…

I had a feeling people would take umbrage with that, but just LOOK at the show itself. Almost every single fusion dance and attempt to fusion dance we've visually seen occur has been mildly sexual or romantic in nature… or at least as sexual/romantic as tv for children would allow. Listen, I'm no prude, I've…

Yay! I saved a seat for you on the disappointed bench.
