The год is 2013. Fresh off of the threat of the end of the world in 2012, the political climate is getting pretty hot, and Adam Sandler graced the world with Grown Ups 2. Truly a horrible time to be alive. But hey, at least we got Pacific Rim. That was a good movie. But worst of all, Мультики on TV were fucking lame. Nothing of interest was on, and it didn’t help that Adventure Time was on Season 6 and Gumball on Season 3, which were both just… ugh, a mess. Hell man, even Regular Показать had it’s issues. But then comes a new challenger, Rebecca Sugar, with her own cartoon. A cartoon that took the world and Tumblr by storm: Steven Universe. I already talked in length about the Показать and how I like it, even with its flaws, flaws that I think are even еще present in season 5, but I don’t want to talk about that. I wanna talk about the twist with розовый Diamond, a twist that had the entire fandom split. Some considered it to be the dumbest thing they could’ve done and how it ruined the theme of the Показать while others considered it a nice twist. But me, I had my issues from the start, but after looking into it, розовый Diamond may be the most tragic character in the show. еще tragic than Pearl или Lapis или Greg или The арбуз Stevens или even Mr. Smiley. And with that said…
I AM ABOUT TO SPOIL SIX YEARS WORTH OF FORESHADOWING AND BUILD UP! THAT INCLUDES ALL SEASONS OF THE Показать AND THE STEVEN UNIVERSE MOVIE! THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING!
So with that said, розовый Diamond is Rose Quartz! Surprised gasp. Now that that’s out of the way, let us discuss the build up. Also, before we begin, Благодарности to Ryan for handling with research. He is a bigger Steven Universe nerd than I am, so thanks for that trivia, Ryan
1: The Image
From the start of the show, from episode one, we are told by the Crystal Gems just how great Rose Quartz is and how she is just the best at everything and how everyone loves her and how she was totally a better mom than yours even, true fact. From the words of the Crystal Gems, all we knew was that she was a rebel and a fighter, doing her best to fight the tyrannical Diamonds on their Главная planet. So in short, we had a Phantom Thief on our hands. But that’s it. We were only told about how great she was in story. Aside from that, we were as clueless as Steven and could only go off of stories told by those that knew her and the things she left behind, like her sword или her pet Lion или the video tape she made with Greg at the пляж, пляжный which is still the sweetest thing this Показать ever made. But slowly (And I do mean SLOWLY), the pieces are put together, bit by bit, brick by brick. We also hear about one of the other Diamonds, розовый Diamond, a Diamond that Rose was able to destroy and prove that the Crystal Gems were fighters, not cowards. And while this did put the Diamonds in their place, this caused a lot of pain to other gems. Gems that missed her, who mourned their fallen leader, and the other Diamonds like Yellow who doubled down on power to make the planet stronger или Blue who thought their actions were responsible for her demise или White who is crazy and horrible and actually Космос Hitler but we’ll пересекать, крест that bridge when we get to it. It’s kind of sad to see the admiration and Любовь these Gems had for Pink. But, surely it was all for the best. Rose wouldn’t cause this kind of suffering, would she?........... Would she really? Well, after a bunch of plot stuff and filler and Ronaldo being the worst, Steven finally finds himself on the Gems homeworld and finds out the truth, the horrifying truth, that his mother, Rose, was actual розовый Diamond. Surprise gasp. But why? How? It doesn’t make any sense! Why would Rose throw all of that away and become a rebel rouser and fight her own Главная planet? Well…
2: Revelations of the Image
розовый was always a carefree and fun loving Diamond, seeing the fun in life and always thinking with a wide eyed view on life. However, this is Diamond territory. No fun allowed. Time to lock Ты in your bedroom as Ты cry tears for hours and hours. Damn. розовый never really saw herself as valued by the Diamonds and that she was just setting herself up to disappoint them if she couldn’t be a leader. And that is where Spinel, the Cuphead DLC boss, comes in. One of the few Друзья розовый had made, a friend that she cared for, and a friend she was еще than ready to leave behind. розовый wanted to be the leader the other Diamonds wanted her to be. No childish games или fooling around. So, when the time came, розовый told Spinel to play their Избранное game, of standing in a spot until she came back… She never came back. Spinel was left on that rock for decades, waiting for a friend that was never coming to get her. Even when розовый became Rose and rebelled against the Diamonds, she still never came back for her. On one hand, this is a horrible turn of events that resulted in the destruction of Spinel’s innocence and her mental stability, turning her into a crazed villain that wanted to destroy Steven’s life out of vengeance, something that розовый could have avoided… But on the other hand, Other Друзья is the best song in the entire show, so it’s not all bad, I guess. After this, розовый was finally able to become a true Diamond, или so she thought. Bored out of her mind, she changed forms to explore the world below, unaware of the damage the Diamonds were causing to it and the inhabitants that lived on it. But for one civilization to thrive, another must perish. Rose, however, was not prepared for that, and so, with the help of her loyal Pearl, a fusion between a Sapphire and a Ruby, and an imperfect Amethyst, they became the Crystal Gems, ready to fight the Diamonds. And it was… pathetic, really. Very little was done, and of course not. They had no experience in fighting, and they were only brought together because of their mistreatment from the Главная world, but had nothing to combat that. That is until Bismuth, best gem, gave розовый the idea to fake her breaking, which would allow her to become Rose full time and give the Crystal Gems a threat. And it worked… But that didn’t change anything. The Crystal Gems were still inexperienced, and all this did was make them a target. And the end result was the Diamonds forced to use a secret weapon on the planet and retreat, turning all lifeforms on the planet into corrupted life forms and losing their sanity, wandering the planet and attacking anyone they saw. So Pink’s decision made her allies enemy to the planet, еще so than some already were, and caused others to pay the price. But, hey, casualties of war, right, или whatever rebels say to justify their cause. At least she still has her friends…
3: Destruction of an Image
Well, Rose never told anyone that she was розовый Diamond, no one except Pearl, who felt she was the only one Rose could trust. But anyway, now that they were on earth, away from homeworld, they could plan their Далее moves, figure out what they could do next, think of what they can do to better their cause… или Rose could go and continue her fun loving adventures on a new Главная world. She always thought humans were special creatures that she admired, admiring them even a bit. That is until one day, she met a very special man. Greg Universe, a wannabe rockstar who lived in a van, had no job, no fame, but at least he had a full head of hair. So why was it Rose was interested in this man, interested in him enough to make Pearl feel like she wasn’t special enough? What made Rose spend so much time with Greg, a large amount of time where Pearl started to feel jealous, fusing with Rose just to taunt Greg, only for it to not work in the end. Rose may not have been aware, but falling in Любовь with Greg broke Pearls heart, and it was a pain she felt for years, even after Rose was long gone, she was still not over it. She couldn’t get over it. The one woman she thought was the only one she trusted, and even still, she kept secrets hidden from Pearl, which devastated her. Pearl thought she was special to Pink, but she was no different from the others. Heck, Garnet was трещина, сплит in half when the truth about Rose came up, causing Ruby and Sapphire to need some time apart to think about the whole situation. And this isn’t even discussing Bismuth, who, though was super enthusiastic about shattering the Diamonds, розовый put her away in a bubble without a секунда thought или even discussing it, leading to Bismuth keeping a lot of anger bottled up even after being freed или how Rose’s rebellion caused Lapis to be mistaken for a Crystal Gem and be imprisoned for thousands of years and made an enemy just by being at the wrong place at the wrong time. But the thing about Pink, the most important thing, is a single quote by Steven in the Steven Universe movie. It’s a simple quote and could be mistaken as a joke, but it is a very depressing Комментарий regardless. “I can’t believe my mother would do that to you… Actually, I can believe it”. Steven has gone from a young wide eyed child, like his mother, who wanted to see her, who believed the stories he was told about her, about how great she was. But now, after all he’s seen, he sees her as a danger to herself and to others. Because after all, розовый hurt anyone who ever loved her. It’s almost like she’s a complete sociopath, as overused as that word is nowadays. But… not… completely.
4: The Tragedy
If Rose really didn’t care about anyone she ever met… why would she stay with Greg? Like Pearl сказал(-а) in the song, It’s Over, Isn’t It, the other best song in the show, she had met many other men in her life, but they never stuck around, and yet, Greg did? Was he just еще stubborn, или was he just a еще fun person she met, или did she actually fall in Любовь with him. I mean, who would fall in Любовь with a медведь like Greg- sorry not sorry. And despite her… lack of social skills, she expressed genuine joy to see Steven, to see what he would grow up and become. And yet, she never got that chance. She was happy to be with Greg and happy to welcome Steven into the world, and yet she was never able to meet him. And Ты think, was everything she did truly malicious или was it all just because she foolish, wanting to do what was best for everyone, unaware of the consequences, much like Steven, who, in the first season, was going around, making horrible mistakes all because he wanted to make his Друзья breakfast. розовый was never a person who did everything because it was for the good of her planet, или because she was so crazy, not that it would matter, because Steven would forgive her anyway- Okay, I gotta talk about this. White Diamond is worst Diamond
Nik, What Are Ты Doing: White Diamond Is Absolute Trash!
I’m sorry, does going around terrorizing everyone on your planet, corrupted a planets worth of your own people and hunting down any that are imperfect like we’re living in fucking Nazi Germany really warrant an apology. I wouldn’t get upset about this if Steven wasn’t quick to judge розовый Diamond, and while this doesn’t ruin that, it just pisses me off how much of a fucking baby she and the other Diamonds become. розовый may have fucked everything up for everyone she ever came into contact with and those sins are fixed only because her son was less of a fuck up, but my god, White Diamond has no depth. The grave that I dug and crawled into with zero intention of crawling out again had еще depth than this character…….. So yeah, season 5’s finale was just okay
розовый Diamond was a character that still has Фаны divided to this день if her twist was ingenious или if it was a stupid excuse to give the Показать something interesting to keep Фаны talking, but that’s not my place to discuss. I’m just here to discuss the tragedy that is розовый Diamond, a character that wanted to do what she thought was right, only to cause еще tragedy and suffering than she intended to fix, but was able to do right in the end, thanks to her son fixing her mistakes. розовый Diamond is in fact the worst Diamond, but that is okay, because even a Diamond can be imperfect… That was a fucking horrible sentence!
I AM ABOUT TO SPOIL SIX YEARS WORTH OF FORESHADOWING AND BUILD UP! THAT INCLUDES ALL SEASONS OF THE Показать AND THE STEVEN UNIVERSE MOVIE! THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING!
