Steven Universe Future Episode 1!

What a good way to start the series off. A little bit of the past, a lot of the present, and a look towards the future. And Jasper! We’re starting off with Jasper! I wasn’t expecting that, and I definitely wasn’t expecting her to become a mentor figure. I like it, though! It’s good for both her arc and Steven’s. That was a great fight scene, too. I joked about it being anime as hell, but it was very Dragon Ball. I hope it’s a sign of more interesting fights going forward, ones that don’t end in just a few blows and have interesting choreography like Steven launching himself off of his shield in midair.
The pink glow is an interesting turn, too. And, again, very Dragon Ball.
Man. This really does feel like coming home. And it didn’t turn out to be some huge, high-stakes, explosive opening–it was…just more Steven Universe. That’s all it had to be, I’m realizing. This isn’t so much a new series as it is just…season 6, and I hope we keep that tone going forward.
Little Homeschool comes in at my new #1 for the season, of course, and my new #29 for the series, between Keystone Motel and Sworn to the Sword.
Up next is going to be episode 2 of Steven Universe Future, Guidance! I’ll be doing that on Monday. Up next for me is going to be a full weekend of Path of Exile. The new expansion launched today, and I’m already six hours later for the league starting. I’ll see any of you who want to play that in the community Discord server’s Path of Exile channel!
