What's this? Infamous troll and critic of Steven Universe actually saying something GOOD about the show? That's insane!

As most of you know, I despise SU with a burning passion. It's an awful show that gets way to much hype. A friend of mine asked me to help out with articles but if not for that I wouldn't hang around here too much. Almost every episode I watch is cringeworthy. However, buried within the rubble of Tumblr's favorite sit-com are a few good things. Allow me to share them with you.

1. Ronaldo. Ronaldo is on of the most fully developed characters on the show. A man falling into his own insanity. His lines are perfect as well. It's a shame he doesn't get much screen time. Then again, given how poorly written this show it, it's likely the writers would ruin him if he was on more.

2. Episodes are only 15 minutes long. I hear a lot of complaints about how Steven Universe episodes should be longer. Truth be told, aren't these things long enough? A 30 minute episode would be incredibly dull.

3. Jasper. Jasper is a remarkable person with a lot of depth to her. There's even subtle clue that she wants to join the Crystal Gems. Now THAT would be wonderful. Wouldn't save the show, but would make it slightly more tolerable.

4. Fandom memes. Okay, I'll admit. You guys are really funny when you want to be. Headidot? Pearleg? Those are priceless. Tumblr community is on point, man.

5. Rising Tides/Crashing Skies. This is the best episode on the series. One of my biggest issues with Steven Universe is that it tries to hard to be dark and edgy. It's not. When it tries to act mature it fails miserably. Rising Tides/Crashing Skies was a nice break from that. It was actually enjoyable. I felt like the series accepted it's limitation and went with it instead of trying to be cool. If it made more eps like that, it would almost be as funny as Teen Titans: GO! Not quite, but almost.

6. Fusion Cuisine. See point 5 by my reasoning is pretty much the same.

7. Steven Bombs. On the one hand, I despise seeing so many episode of this at once. On the other hand, the more steven bombs we have the sooner this show will be over and something that's actually GOOD can takes it's place. So I suppose I can suffer them. One Steven Bomb = one less month of SU.

Anyhow, that's all for now. I had to try really hard to find even this many reasons. SU is currently a 2/10 show that I hope is cancled soon. With all that said and done, cya soon.
