Steven Universe (My take on it)
Good show, it’s one of those rare media you don’t truly appreciate how much thought went into every episode even the minuscule episodes until watching it twice to pick up on the foreshadowing and how the characters reference real events that happened in the past with Steven being the audience for the 1st time watching. He’s blissfully unaware in the early seasons.
There was some hiccups along the way ngl as some episodes where broadcasted out of order by CN rather than sugar themselves. Rebecca put a lot of emphasis on making the characters have complexities more so than any other cartoon I had seen at the time.
Steven universe definitely has flaws, don’t get me wrong. In personal opinion, I used to think anime, no less cartoons were moronic mesh made for children (yes I had this mindset). SU made me realize that animation is just another form of storytelling. Without it I’d probably be a grown adult who looks down at art. Su made me wanna make gemsonas and actually learn how to draw. Even though I wanted to be an animator, but atm I’m perusing law I really appreciate the show for creating a story with likable characters from different walks of life that create a found family. That even the purest looking person can also weave a web of lies (rose).
There’s other subject matter Su talks about in the series; abuse, and communication is one of the more prevalent ones. Instead having the fictional characters have a screaming match they just talk it out. Sometimes, there’s moments where communication doesn’t work out (Amy vs jasper). And I really love that message!
There’s so much more I could go off about how future is about Steven mentally collapsing because he tried to hard to be a pacifist like the image of rose everyone portrayed to him as a hero; only to find out she was a serial liar and thrown thousands under the rug destroyed him. Steven just wanted to be a normal kid, but everyone including his family viewed him as a freak of nature. Deep fucking show.
