Whatever the next OT title is, it NEEDS to have Clod in there somewhere. Anything else would be unjust.

Fuck bombs. Gimme my gradually released content so that SU feels like a proper cartoon pastime again.
+1 This title is the reason I started watching. I just had to know why Obama chuckled. XD
I really want "Hit the Diamond" to go down like this. I mean,
he's clearly addressing an antagonist, and the worry in his voice suggests this isn't just some human character being weird... Granted, at this point, it may actually be a Diamond
I don't know if we're allowed to have misleading OT titles after the "Hotline Miami 3" one, and seeing how DiU is still ongoing, but yo, I'm all for this.
Bolded for best suggestion.
Do it. I actually just finished JoJo Part 3 anime today.

I vote for this one.
yup season 1 first 52 eps
season 2 next 26 eps
season 3 26 eps
season 4 26 eps
season 5 26 eps
and that is all that we know is coming.
basically back when we had seasons 1-3 confirmed and all 52 eps we had the same number of future eps as we currently do with 5 confirmed seasons
also if we are going the jojo route I would actually go with
Diamond is (not) unbreakable
as clearly she can be broken
Ahh thanks for clarification.yup season 1 first 52 eps
season 2 next 26 eps
season 3 26 eps
season 4 26 eps
season 5 26 eps

And yea that title works better

I swear to god I've seen the phrase "Diamond is Not Crash" before but now all I can find is Diamond is Unbreakable. Was it a Duwang sub or something?

I think that was actually how they translated it officially for a while.
Yeah "Diamond is not crash" was how people where translating the part 4 name for awhile that's where my "Diamond is not Clod" suggestions comes from
I think it would be better if the title of the OT is something more along the lines of "Diamonds Are Unbreakable."
I don't know, man.
Unless if Yellow Diamond is capable of shape-shifting her size to something more at a reasonable level, it seems more likely that it's Jasper. She is the only character in the series that Steven has not expressed some form of compassion with. If it wasn't her violent threats or intimidating stature, then it would be her incoherent fury.
I would like a list of essential Season 2 episodes, as I found the first guide to be extremely helpful when I was watching it the first time around. Of course, we have to wait until all the episodes from said season have been aired for television broadcast.
I probably wouldn't mind making another guide like the first one. However, from the feedback I've been seeing around the internet as the first guide was passed around I get the feeling most people don't agree that it's at all necessary, and they feel that people who want to watch the show and get caught up should start from the beginning and binge every single episode without fail.
And from a certain point of view, I have to agree: it's becoming increasingly pronounced that every episode will at some point be referenced again in the future in some way. As such, it's also becoming much less obvious which episodes are "necessary" and which should be considered optional: they all seem to matter at some point, in some way even if it's not readily apparent. Keystone Motel includes a brief ref to Cat Fingers ("The brushes feel weird on my fur."), of all things! How would you even know what Steven was talking about if you choose to skip Cat Fingers?
Of course, it was only ever a recommended or highlight list and not a "you have to watch only these episodes" list, and I included a disclaimer that it would be more beneficial to just watch every episode if you have the time. But you know how people are about these things, lol. All or nothing.

Yeah, at one point I went through and tried to figure out which episodes are complete stand-alone filler, and...there's very few. "Say Uncle", sure. More recently, maybe "Rising Tides, Crashing Skies". But even seemingly one-off stuff like "Sadie's Song" or "Love Letters"/"Historical Friction" introduces or develops characters that will likely show up again later.
Garnet's Universe is probably the only "true" filler as it seemingly has little to do with anything else in the show. I guess you can say it's the first episode to truly show Steven and Garnet bonding, but you get more of that later. And you could say that it's trying to foreshadow Ruby and Sapphire through Garnet's animal friends Hopper and Hoppy that Steven "isn't ready to know about yet". Not really overt enough, though.
EDIT: even then calling it or any SU episode filler is questionable, since that's not how real filler works. "Filler" refers to story and/or arcs in adaptations (animated, for instance) that distances itself from the original work (comics or manga, for instance). SU the animated series *is* an original work, and by definition could not have filler in the traditional sense. But when people toss around the word filler, they ostensibly mean a story/plot that shares no relation to the greater work as whole, or refuses to continue the narrative from previous installments. They only exist in anime to prolong a series after they reached a point where they can no longer continue adapting the original work without compromise, until they reach a point when they can. That's not really a problem most animated shows in North America have to worry about.

Garnet's Universe is also responsible for inspiring one of Garnet's new attacks: note that in Warp Tour she super-sizes her gauntlets to bust one of the warp pads, which she hadn't done prior - and also happened to occur immediately after Garnet's Universe.
Filler?
There's no filler.
The leaks continue heh.
This time a new SU spanish promo today is showing a couple of new spoilery! scenes in it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKfQEIvvHJ8

Man, I was even thinking "All right, what leaked while I was out?"
I can do it if Scrafty's unable to for any reason.
Holy shit was that the CLUSTER ???
That spanish ad.... it doesn't say how they're airing the new eps but if the old post from Reddit is suposed to be believed they're going to air one new episode everyday. If true they'll have spoiled the entire Summer of Steven before we even get to see Barn Mates!
Wanted to get his input because he made the last two OTs but he hasn't posted on GAF for the last few days.
EDIT: Hm, looks like Same Old World will be the episode airing the week after Gem Drill/Super Watermelon Island and not Barn Mates, directly contradicting the Toonzone schedule posted last week.

WATERMELON PUPPY! I WANT TO HUG THAT WATERMELON PUPPY!
Wait, when was the show NOT a visual feast for the eyes?

No, they air two episodes on saturday and sunday, I think. Not sure if it's only one or two.
From that spoilery ad:
lol
Good to know. Shouldn't be too bad, then.
that shot of Steven and Lapis flying over a city (Empire City, I'd bet), an episode titled "Same Old World"... is the whole episode going to be a riff on Aladdin!? I guess this is the episode where Steven tries to convince her to give Earth a chance.
lol

Gumball described a clicker and Darwin turned into one, he even said he got it from a video game. Didn't see it coming.Pretty sure at least someone higher up working on that show is a Naughty Dog fan:

Googling showed me that the show also had a judge character who was a knock-off of the one from The Wall.
Well okay then.

Steven Universe Season 3 |OT| Clusters, Clods and Color Wars OH my!
Watch season 1, skip 2, then watch 3 and 4. Season 4 is tops. Season 1 is meh.
I say skip season 1, skim 2, then watch 3 and 4.
Season 1's pretty different from the rest of the show, and season 2 re-introduces the characters, in a way. I mean, 2's not that great but at least it fits in with 3 and 4 better.
