That depends on if any new episodes are suddenly announce before Tiger Philantropist.
I just hope they don't start Season 5 IMMEDIATELY after S4 like they did with S4 and 3. I hate how Cartoon Network does that!

Yeah. That sounds about right. Kinda sad, too- After that, we have a maximum of 26 episodes of Steven Universe left.
And boy, have they ever got a lot of work to do! (It's times like this I REALLY miss half-hour shows on CN...)
Though I have to wonder if there will be a TV Movie/Special or mini-series to wrap up some loose ends
And that's a HUGE concern I have. the loose ends. If Season 5 is going to be like the rest of the series, I have no doubt that at least a third, if not half, of the season will be Beach City episodes that don't advance any of those remaining plot threads. Theoretically, that's anywhere from 13-17 or so episodes to finish these overarching plot threads. I've pretty much accepted that Bismuth and Centipeetle probably won't be coming back, but now I'm concerned if we'll even see JASPER come back...and that's not even getting into other things that've been set up: Lion, Pink Diamond, the remaining answers about Rose, Pearl's origin, that temple mural, etc., on top of our main plot at hand
Not to mention, Blue and Yellow Diamond have both only showed up twice so far, and White hasn't even been name-dropped this late into the game. This is bad... They're still in the dark about the Crystal Gems, too.....
I'd be fine with Beach City episodes if I was confident we wouldn't be left hanging on these plot threads, but now... Especially since the Rubies weren't picked up despite promise of that... I'm legitimately concerned. I can't be sure if any of these plot threads will get closure...
