Ok first of all for any steven universe fans that live in Britain like myself I strongly recommend using Dailymotion as the quickest way to see the newest episodes online. Second of all, uh...... What the heck? I mean holy mackerel that is evil. So Gem Shards are basically broken Gems, Gems that are broken are basically dead, however Gems don't really die which is even worse than death because as a result they can't form into a single being, they are just reduced to being living body parts which is horrifying. My guess is those shards are the gemstones of Fallen Gems who fought for the rebellion against the Homeworld. And what I just saw is basically the Homeworld's punishment for any Gems that fought against it and probably what would have happened to the Crystal Gems if Jasper and peridot managed to take them back to the Homeworld in jailbreak.

I have watched anime and have seen a lot of f'ed up stuff, and that was right up there, that freaking horrified me. Broken Gem Shards of Fallen Gems being forcibly stuck together, creating these Human centipede like monsters, Homeworld is evil. I am sorry but that was just pure evil. Its like a desecration of the heroic Gems that were broken fighting against the Homeworld, it was truly disgusting. Well we saw Peridot, that was nice I guess, I don't think she was responsible for this, it sounded like she was there for something else. But man that really did disturb me. So people question why there are light episodes before heavy story driven ones like these, I can see why. I mean jesus.
