CALLING ALL STEVEN UNIVERSE FANS!

It’s time once again to celebrate the premiere of our favorite show with the annual LoveLikeYou event! But this year is especially special -- this year, we can celebrate having seen Steven Universe in it’s entirety!

The show began in 2013 with ‘Gem Glow’, and ended in 2019 with the spectacular finale, ‘Change Your Mind’.

Since we can now view the series in retrospect (excluding the epilogue series SU Future,) this is the perfect time to celebrate all that made the show special to us! How it changed the way we view the world, the way we treat others, and the way we identify with ourselves. Steven Universe was a groundbreaking series that undoubtedly had a positive affect on so many of it’s viewers.

And that’s what’s kept this event running for 4 YEARS now! Thank you so much to everyone who has ever participated!! I’m a big fan of you all!

If you’re new, the goal of LoveLikeYou is to SHARE! We wanna hear your stories about SU, see your creations -- your fanart, cosplay, song covers, crafts -- to celebrate what Steven Universe means to YOU! (Whether you’re a new fan or old!)

So on November 4th, use the hashtag #LoveLikeYou2019 to share your memories and thoughts of SU, and to show the Crewniverse some love for these past 6 emotional, incredible years!

Happy anniversary, Steven Universe!!! #LoveLikeYou2019 💖

Long-ish Post!!

I know I'm late, but this composition shot took a while to do, since I filled up the entire page, and have been stressing about exams.

Still, won't stop me from singing the praises of my favourite cartoon ever.

I wasn't in the best place emotionally in late 2015, and was struggling to keep myself up as an artist, trying to figure out my style.

Then I watched this show, and something just... clicked. The style was something to me that seemed like fun the take inspiration from (easier than the Disney style I was trying to copy.).

But I was also taken aback by how... calm it was. Like yeah, there were fast paced comedic episodes and deep, dark ones, but Steven Universe was just so... gentle and reassuring.

I was in a constant state of anxiety and urgency. Peers, parents and teachers constantly asking questions like, what do I want to be in my life, what subjects am I gonna choose in school, when will I get a boyfriend?

Everything required me to make a choice right then and now, it all moved too fast, and I couldn't handle it. Saying "I don't know." back then, to me, wasn't an option.

But Steven Universe was different, Steven Universe told me, "Hey, it's okay if you don't know what you wanna do now, you've still got time to figure it out."

I found immense comfort in all the characters of the show, mostly in Steven, cause I could relate to him in growing up and becoming your own instead of what others wanted you to be.

I know it's cliché, but if I hadn't had seen this show, I probably wouldn't be here as the person I am today.

Everything I had been in a rush to figure out, my art style/career, my self/body image, my sexuality and even my future, Steven Universe told me to step back, take a breath, and take my time.

Steven in particular helped me realise that even if people don't respect you for who you are, that's okay. I don't need you to respect me, I respect me.

And even though it might seem bad now, the future is bright!

So here's to Steven Universe's 6th anniversary, and to Rebecca Sugar and The Crewniverse! I can't wait to see it to what's to come!

today, November 4th, is the annual #lovelikeyou event

https://snapbacksteven.tumblr.com/post/188801519802/snapbacksteven-calling-all-steven-universe

marking the day Steven universe aired on cartoon network. the has been around for 6 years(not including su future)

in this post I'd like to share what su ment(and will always mean!) to me

I'm guessing I discovered it around March 2015 ,probably a little earlier, based my first fan art posts

I think what sparked my interest was garnet's design, I remember seeing screenshots and art on tumblr and I was really drawn to her cool, futuristic, somewhat superhero-ish design

(might get a little heavy idk??)

oof idk how to explain why I love it so much ugh ,the characters,the messages,the music,the backgrounds,the designs,the story,the whole gem world and the concept of aliens based on minerals and other concepts/details...maybe because I was already interested in minerals as a kiddo and that it made me rediscover the hobby and fascination for stones

(who needs merch when you can have 300+ rocks amirite ??😎)

also su was something positive in my life in a very dark period of my life

I got depressed and dropped out of school

and along the way I got tested for a few different things, disabilities etc...

and I'm still not fully out of it yet,but definitely way better than when it all began

and although I dropped out of art school, thanks to su,making fan art and gemsonas etc it was one best things to push me forward as an artist and thanks to making art about it I got a lot of practice and progressed to most compared to the past

it was a creative outlet for me,not only fanart, but gemsonas and stories for them,cosplays, and crafts using different medias. ..wel it actually made me get into different art medias!

su has and still is helping me with self acceptance and my identity

accepting me for who I am,what I like,what I wanna do etc,not holding myself back/changing myself just bc I was afraid of what others would think

(during my years watching su I finally got to understand myself, that I was pan and identify as a demi girl, some years before that,probably early high school I just didn't know how to describe those things or how I felt )((also I have the big hots for all the quartzes hhvggdffgcgfggg///))

I relate to quite a few characters for other reasons but mostly amethyst (and other off color gems) bc we both had a hard time accepting ourselves when we got the news that "something is wrong/different " with you

also thanks to su,especially through conventions and cosplay, I made quite a few friends!or got to bond even more over ot with friends I already had when they started watching it

although I wasn't there from the beginning, it feels like su has been in my life for soooo long

and its messing with my head that actually it has already ended but...also not yet now su future is coming soon

maybe the fact that we know this is the last season is the thing that's messing with me

and although I will me a puddle of sad mush when it ends, I will stay in the fandom and keep making stuff and loving the show

I am looking forward to what future works rebecca,the crewniverse members and artists who got inspired by this groundbreaking show will make

....and the next generation of geologists lmao (including me question mark >:} )

for this post I wanted to share both old and new:digital and traditional art,cosplays,different crafts and a few of my pieces from my mineral collection!

[lupusartz]

First of all, this will be long so don't complain.

Okay so, I should start asking:

What Steven Universe hasn’t meant yet?

Because having this cartoon in my life was one of the best things for me. I don’t even know what I would be without it, I think I would be a completely different person than I am now. I remember as if it was yesterday when I first saw the series, I was a kid and I really enjoyed watching. I spent a good part of my childhood/teenage watching Steven Universe and I can’t replace that with anything.

With me being a very shy person even with family members, Steven Universe made me see that I should express my feelings whenever possible, and keep all these feelings and sensations stuck in my head isn’t healthy and can affect physically (yes, it happened to me) and can affect even close people. I still have some difficulties in having to express myself, but now I’m much better than before.

Not everything is solved with violence and it doesn’t need be this way, of course it doen’t always work, but it costs nothing to try. It’s always good to hear and understand what the other person feels, it’s a much healthier way for both sides.

It’s okay to want to be yourself, you don’t have to follow a pattern to make others to accept you, there will always be someone who will like you the way you really are. And as much as society tries to convince you otherwise, you must overcome and love to be yourself, regardless of what other people think of you.

Now, as much as Steven Universe is over and we will only have the epilogue of the series, I didn’t want it to end, but someday we’ll have to move on our own. And speaking of epilogue, I feel like I’m going to get even more familiar with Steven Universe Future because the synopsis itself is a definition about me: Steven having to face his own problems after solving people’s problems.

It’s basically me. I am that kind of person, I like to help other people and I want to help them whenever possible. I literally do everything I can to make the people that I love feel good and happy, but when the time comes for ME to have to face MY own problems, I try to do it alone. I’ve spent all year of 2018 suffering, and it was horrible. My friends and family wanted to help me and I just ignored them. Now I know that asking for help is a good thing and there will be people willing to do it, and I don’t have to do it all by myself.

I could spend all day talking about every single thing that Steven Universe has changed in me, but this post is already too big. These are the most important points and even after the series is over, I will keep it in my heart to never have to forget those special moments that came into my life.

Все еще под впечатлением от финала Вселенной Стивена решил оформить разворот под одну из лучших, по моему мнению, песен оттуда Я буду скучать по этому сериалу, потому что я буквально вырос на нем Вселенная Стивена научила меня любить себя, любить окружающих, уметь помогать людям, и не бояться просить о помощи, если я в ней нуждаюсь 🌺🌹🌠🌟💎 Спасибо, Стивен

Here is a little edit i made! Enjoy!

[relientlykrazie]

I don't have much to say but, Crewniverse, both current and former, thank you so much for making this show. It means a lot to me and a bunch of other people. Thank you for the laughs, tears, and heartfelt moments. Here's to whatever the Future might hold

Love Like You 2019

Today is the anniversary of Steven Universe's 6 years. Each year, the fandom organizes a little event: "Love Like You". We express to each other - and to the Crewniverse ! - our love for SU, and what it means to us.

All my dear followers know that this show is very, very important to me. I've been in the fandom since 2016 and my life changed a lot since then. I'm not the same person than when I started to watch it.

I lost the friend who introduced me to the show because of my anger issues. My grandma died during the Summer Of Steven. I had at least 3 important romantic breakups, and one of them was at a Jaspis-level. I felt back into depression again and I related to Lapis Lazuli a lot. I dealt with my PTSD and I projected myself in Pearl. I learnt to love my body and I felt comfort in thinking that I looked like Garnet. I explored my own gender and I discovered that I was nonbinary, like Rebecca Sugar, like Stevonnie and like all the Gems.

Thank you for everything, Crewniverse. Thanks for your beautiful art, your endearing characters, your moving songs. Thank you for your funny shenanigans on Instagram, your incredible podcasts where I learnt so much lore, and all the love that you give to your fans.

Thanks to you, I wrote a bunch of fanfictions and read hundreds of others. I befriended the artists that I admired. I found solace among other fans, especially on Discord. I created many cosplays, and photographied many more in conventions. I surrounded myself with posters, prints, pins or cushions of the show. I still think about it most of the time.

My heart is full of love for the Crewniverse, for the community, for the experiences I've lived and the creative processes I engaged in. For the first lesbian wedding on screen in a cartoon. For the first nonbinary showrunner of Cartoon Network.

I love all of this, with all my soul. You've changed my life, and I'm so grateful.
