I hope so, I also hope she realizes the Crystal Gems are good eggs and joins up with them. I hope she and/or another gem get a frequent supporting character role in a later episode, or perhaps even a main character status. Not until maybe Season 2 though.

I feel if she does come back that she'll help Steven but ignore the others. I think that she was only sealed in the mirror to not die since a crack gem can lead up to death and her gem was really broken Are you sure broken gems are dead? I mean, yeah it prevents them from properly functioning, but even shards have some influence, such as in Secret team and the one with Steven's clothes coming alive (I don't remember the name of it). It seems the only possible way to kill them is to grind the gem to dust, and even then there may be a way to bring them back if you gathered most of the powdered remnants.

WOW, Gems are tough. I think they are called Gem Shards: http://steven-universe.wikia.com/wiki/Gem_Shards



Even though Pearl said, "We can still get hurt and die," but with the existence of Gem Shards that are considered "semi-sentient," I wonder if that is true unless Pearl really means when it comes to sentience (Like the human equivalent of being ‘brain dead.’). I don’t think it's been officially said yet, but I’m assuming “Gem Shards” are actually pieces of a gem’s gem that has completely shattered (Which makes the whole concept of gems using them to be part of their “zombie” army really disturbing.). Even if the Gem Shards used to be a gem and the resulting "broken gem" has pretty much ceased all their sentient function, is it still possible to bring back the "gem person" that was once lost? Not saying that it would be easy or that it wouldn’t take a long amount of time.
