Immediate reaction to The Test

This is definitely a good episode to watch unspoiled. Its point is wonderful, and it’s not a bad idea to make sure you see it fresh the first time.

We’ll have to mull for a while whether we want to call what we’re thinking of more concrete lore or more speculation, but this episode has …

Invader by Rice-Lily

More Peridot, this time battling two of the artist’s OCs with a very nice background. Check out the full-size version on DeviantArt!

What to expect from The Test

We’ve been looking forward to this. The preview has already made it clear that the test at the Lunar Sea Spire was just opportunistic, so the site’s namesake is still legitimate (though still unfortunately collapsed and underwater).

This episode could go a lot of ways. Really it’s a fantastic chance to highlight how Steven has …

New episode: Future Vision will air on January 29, 2015

This one should be good. Maybe if we’re really good the lore fairy will teach us a little bit about Garnet. At the very least we should finally get a taste for how powerful she actually is (which we’re guessing the answer is “really”). Be sure to check it out on Thursday, January 29 at …

Aivi and Surasshu post: Alone Together

Have we mentioned that we really enjoy how quickly these latest releases from Aivi and Surasshu are hitting us? Let’s cross our fingers and hope that we get the song from the opening sequence of the episode next, but Alone Together (0:52) is a very beautiful track.
