Thoughts about Steven Universe
10 years ago
I'm hungry and have no idea what to eat, but that's not the point.
The point is - I am really surprised and happy to see that CN or Disney can produce cartoons of an exquisite quality - considering years of crap they put out, sudden change is something I didn't expect.
But here we are now with Steven Universe, Gravity Falls and Adventure Time (and Regular Show - the plot is there but developing very slowly, compared to SU or GF or even AT, and it's basically made for laugh, yet I'm curious where it will go in the future)
And the recent one I'm crazy about is - obviously - Steven Universe.
I had a negative approach toward this show as it didn't really appear as something for me to find interest in, but I was very positively surprised.
The story that this show presents is very mature. Topics it touches are rarity in cartoons, not to mention the way they are presented - for a children it's just gonna be a lot of fun, however adults will find the second meaning, sometimes wondering how can they put something that "heavy" into a cartoon.
Also what really got me in SU is how mature characters are, how realistic relationships they have. Everything is at it's perfection.
It's that good. And the worst is when you try to explain someone how amazing the show is, but they will neglect it no matter how good it is - only because it's just a cartoon. And cartoons are for kids, right?
It's very narrow-minded, but what can I do. I'm lucky to experience these shows ^ ^
