It’s depressing that Steven named Pink pearl after an object what’s purpose is to get punched around. Volleyball

I have a feeling that Aubergine pearl is still wearing dance clothes, just a more mature, toned down version indicative of a dance instructor rather than a practicing ballerina.

Volleyball : sweet Blue pearl : salt grain Yellow pearl : SALTY Rainbow / opalescent cabochon pearl (Bird mom) : *SALT FACTORY* Mega pearl : *Sweet and SALTY* Edit : more pearls Lonely pearl : _water_ Aubergine pearl / wisdom pearl : a salt shaker bottle. _Just the bottle_

Pearl, after watching Volleyball reminisce about pink: "Someone's still got it bad." Best line in the episode.

Imagine if blue pearl became an assassin. I feel like it just suits her personality.

I really want to see emerald even though they’re not in the show a lot

I find it interesting how pearls seem to be the only 'organic' gem, and are thus seen as a luxury. In a world where all they do is conquer and consume, something as finite and useless as the formation of a pearl is the ultimate symbol of status

I always liked how diamonds owned pearls, since the two are almost always grouped together in the same sayings for whatever reason (i.e. Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, "he likes my diamonds and my pearls" by Tierra Whack, and "Diamonds and Pearls" by Prince)

So... pearls are French. They earned their freedom by revolution. Vive les perles! Also, they’re all dressed like ballerinas, mega pearl’s costume, the pearls’ aquiline noses and yellow pearl’s snobby facial expressions at Peridot confirms this for me. 😏 🇫🇷

*[Yellow Pearl is the knight maid, capable of protecting her master at all costs, and obeying every single order no matter the consequences. Blue Pearl is the quiet pearl, only serving her master and keeping her emotions in silence. Pearl is... well, the maid that once served her master, but now is finally free to do whatever she wants, not fearing whatever comes in her way, except Onion. Volleyball was once a maid that served her maid, but due to... well... her master's agressive behaviors, she lost an eye and was welcomed to a new master]*

Let's see, we have: Gay Pearl If it ain't broke don't fix it Pearl Sass Pearl Art Pearl Tour Guide Pearl And Anxiety Pearl

1 Peal= Sailor Moon 2 Pearls = Revolutionary Girl Utena Fused= Rose of Versailles!

Y'all did the pearl's but no ruby squad SMH Edit:still waiting

You forgot lonely pearl from that su game

I think a pearl's servant class status is due to the fact that pearls are organic gems. The Gems clearly consider themselves superior to organic life forms, so any organic Gem on Homeworld would be seen as less than all other Gems.

I think the pearl that forms rhodonite is also a pink pearl, since her last owner was a Morganite , a pink variety of Beryl.

I love how Blue Pearl drew Yellow Diamond zapping one of the Zircons at the trial at 3:10

How does no one understand that our pearl is rainbow pearl since she has all the diamonds colors, aka she’s default pearl. She’s also represented with the color blue (in Stevens experience as a “ghost” in reunited) meaning blue was the one that gave our pearl to pink. By the way in reunited bismuth is represented by rainbow meaning she belongs to all the diamonds at the same time.

Don't they have such great pearlsonalities? heheh..... *okay I'll stop*

5:25 Pause and look at the top right corner, Pearl owns a shotgun

Mega Pearl, her fight scenes, and her design were a tribute to Revolutionary Girl Utena.

*That’s Right!* *I Am A Pearl!* -Pearl

3:54 YOOOO THEY BROUGHT BACK THE GIRAFFE YELLOW MEME JHESFJVSDI

Do Bluebird Azurite (the fusion of Eyeball (Ruby) and Aquamarine) next.

Has there been a video about gem placement symbolism?

So I've noticed that both blue and yellow pearl have their gem at the same place as their diamond. Volleyball has hers on her stomach and pink diamond had her gem there too. Does that mean that it is possible for our pearl to have first been made for white? I think that it is possible and then white decided to give her to pink after pink accidentally hurt volleyball.

I've always been in love with pearls! I don't know if it's there loyalty, knowledge or sweet demeanor but something about their physique with their cute elongated nose I found appealing and instantly fell in love with! Aside from yellow, who really is it good example of being a representative of they're influencer, I loved them all. I wouldn't want them to be submissive, but encourage them to embrace their individuality.

Fun fact: Not every Pearl in Homeworld has the same ability to store things inside their gems. We’ve only seen this because the pearls we’ve seen (except aubergine pearl) are from era 1 AKA from an era where recourses were still abundant. (Peridot said this in one episode)

I would've love if you would've talked about lonely pearl she's from a Steven universe game named fantom fiable. Please next do the garnets (Hessonite, pyrope and demantoid) or all the quartzes and jaspers 🥺

My OST Yellow pearl: sour Blue pearl: bitter Pink pearl: sweet Mega pearl: Sweet and protective Aubergine pearl: knowledge Pearl: protective

Fun fact: when u said pink pearl cleanses negative energy when pink diamond was throwing a tantrum she took it off on volleyball and that took away her negative energy from her cause volleyball got took away by white diamond and pearl came in and she didn’t know that pink diamond had negative energy

When you said, "Pink Pearl has a hard crush, on Pink Diamond" my mind automatically, put them into the label of "A Toxic Romantic Crush''! Yikes!

I like all the Pearls, but i think my favorite is Mega Pearl (The fusion between Pearl and Volleyball)

I feel like I would be a blue pearl because I do like to draw, sometimes I can be very very shy like in the mornings and stuff so I think I would be a blue pearl

Glad you're still doing this series

The pearls gemstones aren't necessarily made. Steven asks if the reef is where pearls are made, much like how quartz solders are made in a kindergarten. The actual gemstone is put into the ground of the kindergarten, to make sure of the right placement, cut, depth, etc. Chances are a similar thing happens with pearls. Although I may be completely wrong.

One of the things I wanted to see if only in the background in SU future was Garet and Rhodonite unfused on a double date. Mega-Pearl's outfit is a shout-out to Revolutionary Girl Utena.

Can we mention the fact that Aubergine has a different voice actor than the other Pearls?

I find it funny how Yellow Pearl, the classy, stuck up pearl, OwO’s constantly.

Just a fun fact, the outfit when fused looks like it's supposed to be an homage to Revolutionary Girl Utena, a shojo manga. They outfit is based off of Utena who rebels and the hair is that of Anthy, who was basically a lady in waiting, and a very depressed character.

I also realised that the pearls have the same gam position as their diamond, which gives me an idea that maybe Volleyball was Pink Diamond’s original pearl and pearl used to be White Diamond’s pearl, considering the gem position and colour

Oh, thank you! I was hoping for this.

I still totally ship Yellow Pearl x Blue Pearl

We've never seen any other pearl storing things in their gems, but we've seen Peridot doing it, she gets an electric detonator thingy to disable the robots in one of her first appearances. This might be an ability of gems with the stones in their foreheads.

Yellow Diamond extending her neck cracks me up every tine Also what about lonely pearl

“But hey, sweat pants are way less depressing when paired with cool graphic T-s!” *Everyone felt that.*

Actually thinking about it those traits that pink pearls are symbolic of fits the character's relationship with Pink Diamond pretty well(except for romance due to pink pearl not being there while the whole thing with Earth and Greg was happening)(some of those can be viewed as being negative ones as well).

I love how at 9:04 the sapphire was just looking at Steven and not shocked like the others

4:54 In Steven universe there are characters that are pearls, but not every loyal pearl has an owner. Such as rutiles, there is a type of pearl for navigation systems, they are called facility pearls. They have no owner, but are completely loyal. Also yes, she is adorable-

It would have been interesting if they showed off a black pearl and tied it to the real life mythology and rarity of them. There is a story about a pearl dealing family that finds a giant black pearl, and initially believe that the wealth and status will make their lives easier, but they just find it complicated their life. Additionally, there are superstitions surrounding whether they found "The Pearl of Heaven" or if they had stolen it from the "Manta Diablo" and will be cursed. (The book is "The Black Pearl" by Scott O'Dell in 1967.)

There is something I find sad about the way Blue and Yellow Pearl kinda immediately ditched their Diamonds after the Authority was abolished. I believe the Diamonds are still the rulers of Gem kind but without the cast system, the pearls felt clearly no desire to serve their diamonds anymore. Ofc the Diamonds weren’t amazing but there is this vibe that the Diamonds are close with their Pearls, besides White ig. Clearly they weren’t as close as we thought since we never really see Blue or Yellow interact with their pearls afterwards.

The Pearls gems (ones we know) are in the same place as their diamonds, maybe the pearl we all know was made for white

Since the Pearl and Ruby that make up Rhodonite were owned by a Morganite, which is a pink gemstone, I believe the Pearl had a pink coloration. Perhaps the Ruby did too. Pink rubies are really pretty. I should write a story about them...

my dad's a pearl (moonstone and I forgot the other one) and my mom's a garnet, and I'm a sardonyx and the paradox

Lots of symbolism in the show, just a little sad that it's finished

EEEK i looove the pearls! they're one of my fave characters from steven universe :3

someone: "We're all in this together" Me: "working together to be alone" someone: "what did you say? i didn't catch that." Me: "nothing"

You showed the “pink lasagna” moment :D

I wish we got to see more Pearls, especially at the Homeworld Era 3 Ball! Q_Q

Can you do a break down on Connie next? Connie is my favorite character and I think that she is very underrated. I would love that video.❤️✨

Once there was the introduction of the pearls, I was like yup Pearl on Earth belonged to white originally, but was given color motifs from all the diamonds so Pink wouldn’t feel homesick at her planet, further confirmed when when White removed all the color from her original pearl because, pink seemed to respect her as an equal (friend) but that also put her pearl in danger, as she was prone to emotional outbursts, other than the calculated behaviors of the other diamonds especially when interacting with their pearls

I have a theory that Rhodonites pearl piece is the same as the Aubergine Pearl in Future. Their skin tone and hair seem to be very similar. Along with Rhodonites bottom eyes being semi almondish.

I remember when I first saw pink pearl and white Dimond. I looked over at my friend and said "That's pink pearl." He was so pissed that I was trying to theory craft cus I guess Rebecca doesn't like it and I was like "Well she shouldn't have made it obvious. Blue pearl and Yellow Pearl have gem stone placements that match their diamonds. Our pearl is white and her gem stone placement matches White dimonds and white dimonds current pearl matches Stevens gemstone placement." Then he got even more made and told me to drop it. I just told him what ever if she doesn't like it she shouldn't have made the show because people do that no matter what.

I’ve (re)watched Steven Universe, Avatar the last airbender, Adventure Time, Rock and snotty, and The Owl House. What other really good animated series, current or past, do you recommend, especially those that also resonate with adults?

My fiance- "Hey, you know those Steven Universe breakdowns you like to watch? I think they just released a new one." Me- "WHAT!?" *quits everything that I'm doing to come find the video* Fiance- "I sent you the link on Facebook." Me- "I LOVE YOOOOOOU!!!!"

Pearl doesn't really act like Pink, she's more mature and controlling cause she was made by White

*[I’m the best pearl, everyone knows that.]*

I love this video! Especially since Pearls are important in my country, Philippines, we have a lot of jewelry with them especially thanks to the West Philippines Sea, and since our country is know as The Pearl of the Oriental Sea. Plus tbh the pearls coming into their own and being emerged in art totally vibes with us since Filipinos are known for being in the arts and we’ve been enslaved by so many colonizers for more than 400 years.

So we have bird mom pearl, punchable pearl, the quiet pearl, and superiority complex pearl. Did I miss any?

I love the pearls so much 🤩 they definitely should have had more scenes in the show👍🏽

Hello pink lasagna -Yellow pearl

Look at the positions of the gems on the respective pearls. While it makes sense that Volleyball was Pink Diamond's Pearl, because both have their gems on their lower torso, we could assume that Crystal Gem Pearl was originally White Diamond's Pearl, because both have the gem on their foreheads, and their personalities... match, to some extent. This makes me think that CG Pearl was passed down from White Diamond to Pink Diamond when Volleyball was decomissioned, while the upper Diamond kept the broken Pearl for herself.

mega pearl is also a reference to the conjunction of anthy and utena from revolutionary girl utena… in which both girls work to overcome the forces oppressing them by finding camaraderie and support in each other. together, they become free to shape their own future.

Love your headband, Kris. This quarantine sucks but I never get tired of this fascinating series

You should do bluebird azurite next

Can we see an analysis on Bait from the Dragon Prince?

Have y’all ever noticed that our Pearl has a pinkish pearl🤔 I love your videos 🤍

Okay... so it really is unsure of where our Pearl's owner is but I think I got it. If you look at the pearls, their gems are in the same place as their diamond's gems would be. ( example: pink pearl has her gem on her belly just like pink etc. ). So depending on that illustration, Pearl's owner should be... White Diamond. I mean.. her colors aren't off. And that was a theory for many other fans too. It was just SO subtle. Pearl's gem is on her forehead.. just like White. Blue Pearl has her gem on her chest, like Blue. Yellow has her gem on her chest like Blue Pearl. And we talked about Pink Pearl already.

I would love to hear stuff about Emerald! Although she’s only been seen once she’s stuff super interesting and also I just want to hear about my birthstone lol

5:07 Her: her eyes are almond shaped Me: *she's Asian*

Awww my beautiful pearls

In together forever when Steven is talking to Ruby you can see larimar Tak a notepad out of it's gym

They match up very well to their gem's symbolism. Blue is calm but brave enough to speak up, like when she welcomes back Pearl or tells of her interest in art. Yellow is all about being at the top where she can show off her smug cat-face. Volleyball was definitely very gay in a very romantic way

Poor Lonely Pearl was forgotten. ;-; Nvm someone already said that ._.

I really wanted to see more pearls other than the diamond’s pearls, pearl, and the new pearl we saw in the finale 🥺

"oh, the Dauntless is the power in these waters, true enough. but there's no -ship- pearl that can match the Interceptor for speed" "I've heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh uncatchable The Black Pearl"

Pearl and Volleyball fuse is based off Revolutionary Girl utena which is about being your own person and not being owned by anyone. she looks like Urnea X anthy fused which im sure what it was going for. If you never watched the show i HIGHLY recommend it

You didn't mentioned the process of bleaching pearls and how it could tie in to Volleyball's experience when she was under the control of White Diamond. Most white pearls that are sold have been bleached in some amount to enhance the white color. Bleaching makes them more uniform in color and increases the supply of the more popular white pearl instead of simply settling for the Pearl's original color. The entire process of bleaching the pearls is not for the health of the pearl or anything like that, but instead is a manipulation, changing it according to a specific person's wishes. Volleyball was controlled by White to utilize the resource of the readily available Pearl but was changed to her ideal by being turned white. Some Steven fans have even called the process of White controlling other gems "bleaching." Volleyball was all but literally bleached.

I understand by this video Thanks 😁

Pearl's do be rockin that personal wii shop menu

I like how in the intro of SU future: paparadatcha is like •D in the back I spelled that so wrong

Please do more of lapis

[Thank you. I wanted some spotlight]

3:58 Spinel: OH EXCUSE ME!

I think that our Pearl was White diamond's pearl. Because of the placement of her gem. The pearls have their gems placed on the same places as their owners. Pearl has her gem on her forehead, just like White diamond, and the same with the other pearls and diamonds. Just think about it... pink pearl was given to pink before our pearl. Maybe, when pink broke Volleyball, white gave her pearl to pink, it wasn't a problem for W.Diamond because she could control her like we saw on one of the last episodes of SU

I really love your videos and you were one of the KZfaqrs that expired me to make my own channel

Bluebird and Agate!

If you combined all the pearls, their weapon would be a huge Spear, with the Nose as the tip.

anyone also notice that the gems on each pearl are in the same spots as thier diamond overlords? pink pearl in her belly like pink, yellow and blue in thier chests, and pearl (probably white's pearl before volleyball's accident) on her forehead.

Did you guys do Zircon yet?
