Ah, the dreaded character episode strikes again. (Then again, Out of This World had some serious lore bombs in it that we’re still planning on getting back to.)
Still, as far as character episodes go, what a thing to be coming to grips with.

GC13 and Sophia discuss the first of this string of weekly episodes: The New Crystal Gems.
This one was a treat. Connie wearing Steven’s shirt? Yes. Peridot wearing sunglasses? Definitely. Lapis doing her best Garnet impression? All of our want (even if her Peridot impression is lousy).
So no, there was no time skip from using the gravity engine on the roaming eye, but there was still enough time to cause some damage in the city. We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for the car wash’s new sign, for sure!
Also, bonus points for having Pumpkin in the episode, being the cutest pet anyone could ask for.

Steven goes into his room in the temple to look for answers.
Immediate reaction to The New Crystal Gems
The New Crystal Gems will be most interesting from a lore point of view in how it relates to the Out of This World event, but on its own it’s great to see Peridot and Lapis interacting with someone new. (It’s also great to see Lapis getting heavily into character—she’s so method.)
Preview for The New Crystal Gems
They got it to us late, but they still got it to us: here’s the official preview for The New Crystal Gems.

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter come back to discuss #StevenBomb 5 (the Out of This World event) a second time, this time after its official air date!
Fanart is always good, especially when it depicts trick-or-treating (sure they don’t have Halloween in Steven’s Earth, but they can start the tradition). That would be a good ending to the series, to be sure!
Seeing how the Diamonds relate to one another is great too, but nothing can compare to the Famethyst. (Carnelian isn’t even the shortest anymore, now that Amethyst has joined the crew.)
Then, of course, there are the zoomans. Living an idyllic life of pleasure, they leave us to wonder about some of the mechanics of their basic maintenance…
