Thursday next week will see another new episode at 6:45 PM EST. This one was initially known to us as Fusion Crime, but multiple sources are calling it Fusion Cuisine instead. As such, we’ve gone ahead and edited this post to account for that.
Fusion Cuisine
In an effort to win over Connie’s parents, Steven convinces the Gems to fuse together and pretend to be his mother.
Sadie is probably a teen, definitely knows how to handle herself in a fight, and we know sometimes she can get angry. What does that make her? A Teen of Rage! So it should come as no surprise that Teens of Rage is this week’s song of the week.

Right now on Amazon, there is a listing for a Steven Universe DVD. Its release date is set at January 13, 2015, and it has an MSRP of $15. It includes the following episodes:
It also features the pilot episode for the series.
The episodes are non-sequential, but that’s no reason to despair: when Adventure Time was getting its first DVD releases, they were similar to this. Eventually it got full-fledged season set DVDs and blu-rays, so hopefully Steven Universe has the same success in the home media market.
All times are EST.

We raised a question yesterday, brought up by Island Adventure. Unfortunately we have no answers for you: only speculation. It’s our lot in life, and it’s a good thing we enjoy it.
This one comes in via CNPreview. Fair warning: this one seems to spoil more than is normal for these previews. Though it does look like it’s from the beginning of the episode, it’s still written like a climax and makes it look like most of the episode will be flashback.
The scenery in Island Adventure was fantastic, as was the interaction between the characters. What did we learn about Gems, though?
Island Adventure is another Sadie and Lars episode that seems to have picked up right where Joking Victim left off. The feels are strong with this one, but the magical elements are a bit stronger thanks to the setting.
This was another lore-light episode, but we did get a new location to add to the list later. Unlike the sky spire from Giant Woman, though, the tropical island (underneath the molten lava—no! No singing!) isn’t obviously tampered with (aside from the presence of the warp pad, which signifies that it had some reason for Gems to come to it).
We (most of us, anyway) will get to see Island Adventure on Thursday. This is going to be another Sadie and Lars episode, and will feature another song from Steven (though unfortunately it lacks the phrase “on a tropical island” despite being ripe for the reference to Ms. Sugar’s work on Adventure Time).
The bulk of the action will take place on what looks to be a very Gem-touched island, with Steven, Sadie, and Lars trapped there (probably because Steven isn’t the warp master after all). We might see enough of the island to divine its purpose (we’re putting money on tourist destination, but don’t look at us: we don’t have all the answers—that’s the hula dancers’ job), but as is par for the course nothing will be dwelled on.
In the preview, the Crystal Gems are searching for a monster. Expect it to show up towards the end of the episode, probably cementing the bonding between Sadie and Lars we see in the song; there’s just no fun to the episode if they spend all of it putting on lotion, sitting by the ocean.
Until Thursday: get us out of this cave, because it’s nothing but a monster-Gem grave.
