It’s interesting to me how Steven Universe never does the “last time on [name of show]” opening thing, which in other shows was always a dead give-away of which plot elements were going to play a part in the episode. Kinda sucks for first-time viewers but I guess with the interwebz and all, starting from the beginning isn’t really a problem anymore nowadays.
Would also suck up their short run times.
Oh yeah, I hadn’t even thought of that. Good point.
Even better though, it never does a “what will happend” thing that always spoils the next episode. if it did have one, it would be like “Will the gems be able to stop the cluster before it destroys the earth? find out next time on steven universe: cluster defeated”
