If you're evil and you're on the rise

You can count on the four of us taking you down

'Cause we're good and evil never beats us

We'll win the fight and then go out for pizzas

We are the Crystal Gems

We'll always save the day

And if you think we can't

We'll always find a way

That's why the people of this world believe in

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl, and Steven!

If you could only know, what we really are

When we arrived on Earth, from out beyond your star

We were amazed to find, your beauty and your worth

And we will protect your kind, And we will protect your Earth

And we will protect your Earth,

And we will protect you!

I will fight for the place where I'm free!

To live together and exist as me!

I will fight in the name of Rose Quartz!

And everything that she believed in!

I will fight for the world I was made in!

The Earth is everything I've ever known!

I will fight to be everything that everybody wants me to be when I'm grown!

The odds are against us, this won't be easy

But we're not going to do it alone!

We are the Crystal Gems!

We'll always save the day

And if you think we can't

We'll always find a way

That's why the people of this world

Believe in. Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl and Steven!

~ Intro Lyrics

Here we are in the future

Here we are in the future and it's bright

Nothing to fear

No one to fight

I can't believe we've come so far

Happily ever after here we are

Once upon a time, I thought I'd always be in my mother's shadow

Answering for her crimes I thought I'd always be in an endless battle

'Til I began to own

A power all my own

That I could feel growing stronger every day

And now I saved the world

Not just that, the whole galaxy saved

We did it!

Here we are in the future!

Once upon a time

I only lived to be of Pink Diamond's service

'Til the day the two of us snuck down to be on this planet's surface

We became our fantasy

And I was sure she set me free

But in the end, I guess I never left her side

And after love and loss and all the tears that I cried, I find that

Here we are in the future!

Once upon a time, a Sapphire came to Earth with her Ruby soldier

Sapphire's deadly fate was set until the Ruby rushed in to hold her

Suddenly they were fusing

Beautiful, strange, confusing

And there I was, a bundle of questions, so naive

That if you told me this I never would've believed you then but

Here we are in the future!

Once upon a time, I burst to life inside of the kindergarten

A product of a war that I had no idea I had a part in

I came out late and alone

Knew nothing but my home

But I know now exactly who I'm supposed to be

And it's a part of this family!

If I could just stop right here and be

Finally done

Finally us

Finally we are in the future

Here we are in the future and it's bright!

Nothing to fear

No one to fight

I can't believe we've come so far

Happily ever after

Happily ever after

Happily ever after

Here we are!

Background

Seasons 1-5

Steven Universe is an American animated television series created by Rebecca Sugar that focuses on Steven, the youngest member of the Crystal Gems, a team of magical guardians who protect the Earth.

The Pilot was released on May 21, 2013, on Rebecca Sugar's father's YouTube channel (but has since been removed). The show premiered on Cartoon Network on November 4, 2013, in the US, on January 6, 2014, in some parts of Asia, and April 7, 2014, in South America. On July 25, 2014, it was announced that Steven Universe has been renewed for Season 2, and on July 7, 2015, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a third season. On March 30, 2016, it was declared that these two seasons would be subdivided to create four seasons of shorter length, giving the show five seasons total.

In Steven Universe, the world is protected from evil threats by the Crystal Gems, a movement of Gems sworn to protect the Earth from the Homeworld Gems. Their powers flow from their gemstones; magical gems embedded somewhere on the host's body. The four Crystal Gems are Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Steven. Multiple gems, such as Peridot, Lapis Lazuli, Bismuth and a human, Connie Maheswaran has also joined the team. Steven is a young half-human, half-gem boy who inherited his gemstone from his mother, a Crystal Gem named Rose Quartz, who gave up her form to create Steven. As Steven tries to figure out the secrets to using his gem, he spends his days in Beach City doing activities with the other Crystal Gems, whether it's helping them save the universe or just hanging out.

Movie

Steven Universe: The Movie is an American animated musical television film based on the Cartoon Network animated television series Steven Universe. It was released on September 2, 2019. The movie is set two years after the events of "Change Your Mind" and features a visibly older Steven in his sixteenth year against a world filled with new developments.

After an introduction from the Diamonds and the story of Steven, Steven Universe (now 16 years old) greets the citizens of the Gem Homeworld and other colonies through a broadcast, announcing that he's done dismantling the empire and is going back to live with his friends on Earth. The Diamonds want him to stay to fulfill Pink Diamond's role as a leader, but he refuses. Back on Earth, Connie welcomes Steven back and he sees her off to space camp. Steven, Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst celebrate their newfound "Happily ever after".

Almost immediately afterward, a giant drill lands on the hillside of Beach City and Spinel, a deranged, cartoonish Gem, appears, announcing her intent to kill Steven and the rest of the life on Earth. Using a scythe-like weapon, she poofs Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst. Her attacks also weaken Steven's Gem powers, though his body is unharmed. Steven manages to steal her scythe and poof Spinel.

Back at the beach house, Steven calls his father, Greg, for help. The Gems regenerate their bodies (including Ruby and Sapphire separately), but their memories have been erased; with Pearl assuming that she is Greg's servant. With her memories gone, Spinel is a goofy and happy-go-lucky Gem whose role is to entertain her companion (Steven). Steven and Spinel take Ruby and Sapphire to seek advice from Peridot, Lapis Lazuli and Bismuth.

SU Movie 770Bismuth identifies Spinel's scythe as a "Rejuvenator", a device that can reset the mind of a Gem back to when it was first created. While Steven didn't reset thanks to his human half but is discouraged from the loss of his powers from his gem half taking the hit. The three of them encourage Steven not to give up. Spinel compares the situation to a puzzle, suggesting that they find the Gems' "missing pieces" to restore their memories, inspiring Steven to try to reenact Ruby and Sapphire's first fusion. Spinel's antics cause scaffolding to collapse, almost crushing Ruby; when Sapphire shoves her to safety, the pair fuse into Garnet, but she still has no memory of her life.SU

After Steven recovers Amethyst's memory by reenacting experiences the two had together, Peridot discovers that the drill is injecting a toxic chemical that will kill all life on Earth. They then come to the conclusion that Spinel would be the one to remove the Injector, so they need to bring her memories back. Steven remembers back when Spinel attacked them, Pearl seemed to know who she was. In order to revive Pearl's memory, the group takes her to a Sadie Killer and the Suspects concert, in the hope their music will bring back her memories of rebellion, but Pearl says that as long as Greg exists she will obey him. Steven uses what little energy he has left to fuse with Greg, which enables Pearl to recover her memory. She tells Steven that Spinel was once Pink Diamond's playmate; Spinel is suddenly overcome with sadness and flees.

After sending Lion for Connie, Steven finds Spinel crying at his house. She takes Steven to a desolate garden in space and reveals her backstory: she was Pink Diamond's playmate until the other Diamonds gave Pink her own colony. Pink told Spinel to wait for her and left her alone in the garden for 6,000 years until she learned of Pink Diamond's fate via Steven's broadcast from the beginning of the movie. Steven then tells her that she isn't the only one Pink hurt and that she should find a better friend who won't hurt her.

Steven Rediscovering His PowersBack in Beach City, Spinel turns off the drill, but when Steven begins shifting his attention back to everyone else, she accuses Steven of just using her and then abandoning her or planning to wipe her memory again after discovering that he kept the Rejuvenator with him (but in reality, had nowhere else to put it). She turns the drill back on and attacks Steven. As he tries to explain the truth to her, Garnet recovers her memory. Steven sends the others out to rescue the humans of Beach City while he confronts Spinel. Steven finally realizes why his Gem powers have not yet returned: his desire for an unchanging "happily ever after" has left him resistant to the very notion of growth and change, which he needs to re-experience. Embracing this fact, he regains his powers and battles Spinel. Their fight destroys the drill, and Spinel realizes that hurting Steven will not make her feel better, and relents.SU Movie 1998 The Diamonds suddenly arrive and state their intention to live on Earth with Steven. He introduces Spinel to them and they take an immediate liking to her and her goofy personality. The Diamonds accept her in place of Steven and she happily goes with them, now with people who will love her unconditionally. Steven and his friends gather to rebuild Beach City, thanks in part to Steven's healing powers undoing the damage of the poison. Steven, Pearl, Garnet, Amethyst, Connie, and Greg perform the Broadway-style song, "Finale​​​".

Future

Steven Universe Future is an American animated limited series created by Rebecca Sugar. It serves as an epilogue to Steven Universe taking place after Steven Universe: The Movie which itself is two years after the original series.

It premiered on December 7, 2019, with a one-hour special featuring the episodes "Little Homeschool", "Guidance", "Rose Buds" and "Volleyball", and ended with a four-part finale consisting of the episodes "Homeworld Bound", "Everything's Fine", "I Am My Monster" and "The Future" on March 27, 2020.

After saving the universe, Steven is still at it, tying up every loose end. But as he runs out of other people's problems to solve, he'll finally have to face his own. Haunted by the past and lost in the present, Steven begins manifesting new, uncontrollable powers that the Crystal Gems have never seen from him before.

Power of the Verse
