It could be worse, we could all be millennials pinning about how the '90s was God's gift for anyone born before 1990 and how kids these days missed out.

i.e.
I already know what kids have these days.
Tween shows.
One Direction.
Foul-mouthed online play.
And more!

Anyone else going to wake up early (depending on your timezone), and watch evo from start to finish? Because I am.

I may have a problem, but still

I don't expect everyone to like the same thing, so don't take it like I'm being condescending. But if I could debate with your opinion;

  • I could pull out any of Steven Universe's backgrounds and prove that there's more than enough effort put into the show's art style. The character designs are kept simple so they are more flexible for animation. Granted, it does take the first 10 or so episodes before the character design and animation is solidified as some characters do look off in some of the early episodes.
  • There's a lot of world building, so we need to become accustomed to the characters themselves and how they interact with each other before they start character developing. The character development is more prevalent in the second half of Season 1, but world building takes place in the very beginning. There might seem like a whole lot of nothing going on at first, until you start seeing things from earlier episodes being brought up later, especially with the Gem culture and mythos.
  • Songs are very subjective with taste, so I won't argue with that. A lot of people adore the sound design/music though, which I agree with. I can listen to the BGM on extended repeats because they fit my tastes.
  • I will admit, Steven Universe has a slow start, but its all worth it when you get to the greater episodes. I'd say the turning point would the first two-parter episodes (Episode 25 + 26) where an overarching plot starts to become grounded. But I must say...
  • Steven Universe is a character driven story. It's not focused on an epic plot of world domination or good vs. bad, but on how very human and relatable the characters act and interact with each other. The overarching plot in action helps support an engaging narrative, but it isn't the absolute focus.
  • I'd be fine with seeing the detailed backgrounds, but nothing really looked all that good to me. My other problem with the art doesn't have to do with how they move, but more with how they look. The designs don't really...look good in anyway. I can nitpick the designs, but like you said, it's up to the person (There is an extent to it though).
  • Sure, you need to build your characters and the world; That's what a good piece of literature or show is suppose to do. But seeing what you said, half of the first season is dedicated to constructing the world. That should not take that long to explain. I'm not expecting to learn all of the setting in one go, but it shouldn't be the entire focus. Set up the main parts of it, then continue it in later episodes. However, when you're doing this, you should also build up your characters along side it. I keep hearing how they go more into the characters later on, but in the beginning the gems really aren't all that great. And if i'm watching the show from the beginning, that doesn't give me a good impression of them.
  • I'll give you that, it is subjective...to an extent. Not referring to the music in the show, but in general. I could explain it better, but I don't want this to get to long.
  • And that's my problem. I keep hearing the show gets better at a later point, but it should've been good since the beginning. It's why I get the impression of these characters, because they couldn't exactly make them likable to me at that point. Greg was really the only one who I thought was ok.
And i'm fine with it being a character driven story. However, when I here the lines, "We always save the day. And if you think we can't, we'll always find a way!" I expect it to have it more centered on them doing things related to protecting Earth. In the end, here is how I want the show to be: I want to see the gems actually doing hero stuff, while also showing them build character along the way.

Well, this took longer than expected. I'm fine with how you think of the show, this is just how I feel. If I watched the show more, then maybe I could get a better understanding of it. For now though, i'm just not caring for it.
