Gonna have to disagree with you on the development there. While I get that it took “build up” for the new fusions, it wasn’t in a good way. If you want a good example, look at Smoky Quartz! That whole fusion took a string of episodes, and the character development on Amethyst’s part was on point. Amethyst and Steven actually had a good relationship (obviously not in a romantic way) that tied in great with how Smoky was introduced! The other fusions? Not so much. There was not a character build up in that case, there was a build up, sure (though, not exactly a good one), but nothing else. Those fusions in CYM were there for what? Two or three minutes for an introduction, then that’s it? Honestly, the only fusion in CYM that felt like it had a good build up was Obsidian, character and story wise. Honestly, as much as I love 2.0 and Sunstone, the only fusion that deserved to be there was Obsidian. 2.0 and Sunstone could have been introduced later, especially since the next time we see Stevey boi and the Gems it's after a time skip that would definately change their appearances (given how Steven has grown significantely and is wearing new clothes)
