How did you interpret this?

Qifrey has this dream of coco treading though a snow storm calling for him and I kinda see it as a nightmare of coco getting caught in Qifrey storm

Qifrey and olruggio

Did Qifrey erase olruggio mind here to stop himself from branching or to stop olruggio from getting himself caught up in Qifrey brim hat stuff?

I know at the end of the silver ever arc he basically said that if he revealed all he kept hidden then he turn into a tree because keeping his loved ones in the dark is enough anxiety to keep him from branching while still being able to live with them.

So in this part in Chapter 40 where Qifrey erases olruggio mind, do you think he did it stop transforming or to protect olruggio?

Does anyone talk about how grown the Jackson 5 songs were

Listening to the Jackson 5 and Motown had little kid Michael Jackson singing some really grown song about love and heartbreak.

Did no one at the time question why this 10 year old kid is singing about wanting his woman back after doing her wrong?

What do you think Steven’s birth looked like?

Rose looked like she had a baby bump so Steven was obviously growing inside her but I doubt she gave a natural vaginal birth.

My theory is that Steven was growing inside rose around her gem or was attached to her gem with like an umbilical cord.

I think the birth probably looked like rose body disappeared in a flash of light and what was left was newborn Steven

Why does boruto kabuto still look like orochimaru?

When orochimaru reclaimed his dna from kabuto, kabuto’s scale skin and purple eye marks went with it but in boruto he looks snake like again

I don’t like how kabuto became a massive antagonist

Him stealing orochimaru DNA and research and becoming a massive threat just wasn’t an interesting antagonist to me. I found orochimaru more interesting as a character than kabuto. I also feel like his backstory was kinda just shoved in last minute to try and make him a sympathetic villain when he didn’t need to be.

I think the entire purpose of his character could’ve been fulfilled by orochimaru and it would’ve been more interesting to see orochimaru find a way to unseal his arm himself and then make the army for obito.

The only thing I liked about his character was the ending of his fight with itachi and sasuke when izanagi is used on him and he disables his zombies.

Do you think Nikki is going to prison?

Honestly I think if she tries to blame it all on bear and has a good lawyer it can happen.

Theory on era 2 gems were weaker

The gem empire was not without resources. Between the diamonds they had over a dozen planets colonized each probably rich in resources.

The reason era 2 gems are weaker is because they lack pink diamonds. Gems are created using the essence of the diamonds and during era two they didn’t have pink diamond.

I don’t know how individual gems are made like if they want to make a Sapphire it’s a different diamond juice blend than an Amethyst, but I’m going to assume that’s how gems are made.

One thing we notice about era 2 gems is that they are smaller and lack certain powers we see with other gems. My theory is pink diamond juice added raw power to diamond juice gem making blend.

I make this assumption based on the diamonds and their respective courts. I’m assuming blue diamonds court is made of gems who have a higher ratio of blue diamond juice than yellow diamond court and vice versa. So what we notice about blue diamond court is that most of them are not really combat gems. Most of them have non-combat use like lapis terraform, sapphire have future site, agate bark order, and aquamarine also was in charge of topaz.
Yellow diamond we see more comprised of soldiers. They were far more militant and seemed to also be hot headed similar to yellow diamond. Now my observations about their courts aren’t absolute like peridot is in yellow diamond court but she’s not a combat gem.
One thing I notice about pink diamond court is that they’re mostly quart soldiers. Quart soldier are large, strong, and brutish. The only other gems we see like this are topaz in yellow diamond court. I don’t think we see any non-combat gems in pink diamond court. They’re all physically powerful lackeys. I mean look at jasper, she’s arguable the strongest non-diamond gem in the series. My head cannon on jasper strength is she has a heavy mix of pink and yellow diamond juice, so she militant and physically powerful.

My point is gems with a high concentration of pink diamond juice are very large, strong, powerful, and once she was gone gems across the empire were smaller and weaker.

Something to support my theory is how raw powerful pink diamond was. Sure she was smaller than other diamond but she had immense raw power. Her tantrums where she would just shout and a massive shockwave would erupt around her. We also see this with Steven when he turns into a monster and the other diamonds has trouble reining him in.
Maybe I’m wrong about pinks diamond raw power and the other diamonds were just better at controlling it

Do you think jasper got stronger during future?

In season 1 jasper lost to garnet, who is extremely strong, but not a character I think could contend with pink Steven the way jasper did.

The way jasper was fighting Steven was a strength I don’t think any single gem could exhibit except a diamond.

Is garnet stronger than I think or did jasper just get way stronger?

Thinking about how powerful a 4 diamond fusion would be

Something I noticed about fusion is when gems fusion the resulting fusions seems to be like a multiplication of their power not addition. Take garnet for example, garnet is way stronger than just ruby and Safire sapphire individually.

The four diamonds individually are essentially gods to the other gems so them fused together would be an unstoppable force. The speed, the strength, the power, it would be a whole other level. I could seem them being moon level or even planetary.
I like to think the resulting fusion would make a black diamond.

Something I was thinking about is if fusion among the diamonds would be frowned upon in era 1/2. We know fusion among gems of the same type was considered normal but different type gem fusions were seen as abominations. The diamonds are all diamonds but they’re different types of diamonds and all look different.

We’ve yet to see any threat or even a hint of a threat in Steven universe that could possibly require the diamonds to fuse, but maybe we’ll see something new in Lars of the stars

Why do you think rose didn’t use her resurrection power more

At the start of the show lion is the only living pink diamond resurrected creature so why do you think she limited the use of this power?

I can’t remember right but I think this power was even a surprise to the other gems. She cared so much about organic life but didn’t use her resurrection powers on it.

Maybe she thought it was unethical?

Wish Nikki said she can’t be Nikki because Nikki didn’t love bear

In this intense scene where bear is pleading with wish Nikki to just act like normal Nikki, wish Nikki said “I can’t be Nikki”. This is right after wish Nikki says she can be whatever bear wants but she can’t only be something that love bear and Nikki didn’t love bear.

How do you interpret the uncanny scene?

The way Nikki’s mouth doesn’t line up and her face looks so weird. Why does it happen and what does it mean?

In era 3 it seems like yellow diamond is the only one doing something useful

She’s reviving shattered gems and fixing their broken forms; in comparison the other two don’t seem to be doing anything that great.

Blue diamond is basically a giant masseuse that helps gems relax by altering their emotions and white diamond is kinda just letting gems play around with her giant body.
