How come there
isn't a thread for this already? This show already got insanely popular since the first season finale.

As Steven tries to figure out the secrets of his gem, he spends his days in Beach City doing activities with the other Crystal Gems, whether it's helping them save the universe or just hanging out.
This show might seem a little silly or slow at first, but trust me, it gets
much better. I love it, and I'll try to explain why. You see, this show actually manages to deal with serious themes
and lightweight at the same time, and it doesn't feel forced unlike
other shows (I'm looking at YOU, Adventure Time). It also got a quite interesting lore, likeable characters and it can really tug your heartstrings, I mean, one episode actually made me cry (
because I could personally relate to that scene, something similar happened to me
). It's the first time a cartoon makes me cry since forever. It might be the best CN show since Regular Show, and it's really worth a try. Just don't expect that much "action". There is action, but this show is more about subtleity and details, it might bore you but if you're like me, you'll love it. Again, this cartoon can deal with really serious and even depressing themes, and yet it does in a pretty lightweight but nonetheless effective way.
