Samurai Jack is the only other CN show that I think can compete with Steven Universe. Both shows are very similar, involving elements of sci-fi, fantasy, time, immortality vs aging, martial arts, drama, the list goes on. I'm comparing characters from both shows in my headcanons, and like to think that both shows have common origins in their status as anime-inspired western cartoons.

One show is more drama-laden and linear, while the other is action-oriented and episodic. Both shows are however impeccably directed, so I like to think they complement one another perfectly. I usually try to watch episodes from both shows back to back.
