By the way More Steven universe episodes in June

Well at least that "Summer of Steven" sounds promising quantity-wise - I expect there will be much more than just five episodes, like in the last Stevenbomb

And then there is seventh season of Archer that premiered while I wasn't looking - the first two episodes are all right and very... Archer-y.

Just finished watching Star Wars Rebels. I have to say, the end of season episodes are just fantastic. They also do Darth Vader really well.

Ok I was kind of underwhelmed by the whole Super Watermelon Island two part special and here is why

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The other issue that I'll bring up is that the show COMPLETELY dropped the tension with homeworld... and somehow is treating them like they are no longer a big deal (kind of). They could have put it into the background without making it seem gone... Show Pearl making more cannons or something in an episode as a second thing. Done!

Otherwise it is still a good show. Minor gripes in what is otherwise excellent.

Well, I dont think that Homewold threat being forgotten is necessarily a misstep. If it wasnt for the thing they stopped, it seems like Earth has entirely forgotten about Earth and has moved on. It would seem that the civil war was far more important to the few rebels then to the Gem Empire as a whole. I think that would be a pretty interesting thing to explore.

I am trying to watch the second episode.

I wasn't a fan of the first episode (though really good animation) mostly because non-sense, demotions, and hilariously bad hero speeches.

I just finished 11th episode.

It's not thoroughly good, but it certainly has its moments, and I love those.

WOW!!!

Steven Nuke...

In Mr. Greg... Pearl actually sings a song that might be the best song in the entire series.

Yes... She might have actually beat "Stronger then You"

The episode might have been a BIT weak overall... But dang that song!

I get the impression the reason the writers give Pearl the most songs is because as a singer she is by FAR the most flexible.

With Voltron going strong with a reboot, that reminds me that there's a Robotech live action movie being made. The similarity is that both series originated as "mash ups" of multiple anime franchises. The big difference is that the company with the rights to Robotech are mega douchebags. They've basically blocked anything related to the original source material being released in USA (which includes 30 years worth of sequels), to protect their precious "brand", while making the most Shit-Tastic "sequels" on their own. But the big joke is that they don't actually have the rights to most of the stuff people liked about Robotech, so their sequels have almost no "Robotechy" stuff going on. thus they fail hard.

For the last 10 years they've been trying to work out how you make a movie of a TV show when you don't actually have the rights to most of anything that was in the show ... Shoji Kawamori (the original mecha designer and director of the franchise) has actually said he wants to help out with the Robotech Movie, but I'm guessing this is contingent on them stopping from fucking him over on Macross distribution rights, so they've basically given him the middle finger by ignoring his overtures. Harmony Gold treat this as a zero-sum game - more macross = less Robotech, whereas Kawamori sees collaboration as an opportunity to grow both brands.

Anyway, the main news is that Warner Bros gave up on making this movie after almost 10 years in development hell, and sold the rights to Sony, who've announced a new director (in a long line of proposed directors). Will Sony still screw over the original content creators, or will they resolve the idiotic dispute and actually make a Robotech movie people want to see - one that contains Robotech Stuff, unlike the previous Robotech: Shadow Chronicles cartoon from 2006?

I get the impression the reason the writers give Pearl the most songs is because as a singer she is by FAR the most flexible.

Deedee Magno-Hall, Pearl's VA, is a former broadway singer and it shows. Only in 'Mr.Greg' she actually gets to show her A-game specialty and holy shit it was good. Estelle deserves another chance to lay out her singing credentials, her real life songs are pretty good and I'm not sure about Michaela Dietz, Amethyst's VA, being a professional singer but she has potential, so we'll see and it will probably be good.

Edit* About the episode itself, it seems like Pearl's ready to move on and find a new romance. She'll keep Rose in her heart but I definitely see them pushing her character development more in the next Steven Bomb. So, who do we want to ship her with? Not Greg, they're in a friendly relationship and I don't see it moving past that. Same with Garnet. Amethyst's more like a annoying younger sibling to her. Maybe they'll introduce a new human and we'll see how she reacts to being in the same situation as Rose?

And Steven Universe just... had an episode of Initial D.

You don't know the power of the Supremo?
