Omg did anyone notice how white pearl's heels weren't touching the ground? If white is controlling her, and pearl takes whatever stance white has, then this makes sense, SINCE WHITE IS WEARING HEELS!

White Diamond is absolutely terrifying. This reveal did not disappoint. The threat of yellow and blue taking action on earth seems so tame now compared to the fear invoked by a few simple sentences from white. Can’t wait to see More of her

I can't even explain my feelings better than Roundtable already did. White Diamond is *THE* perfect foil for Steven, the emotion expert who has talked things out and reasoned with almost every threat he's ever faced. Lapis, Centepeedal (sorry, Nephrite), Peridot, The Cluster, Bismuth, *Blue and Yellow Diamond* . The only threats Steven hasn't been able to overcome with words yet are Jasper, Eyeball Ruby, and Aqua Marine, and they will most likely get off of Steven's case once they learn that he's essentially Pink Diamond. So, how do you create the perfect foil for someone with such emotional knowledge and experience? Well, with someone who has completely cast aside all emotion, has zero tolerance for any resistance, and will be virtually impossible to overcome with anything short of overwhelming, godlike, force. White Diamond is, *The Anti Steven*

I get we're all excited about white diamond but not one person has talked about what Garnet said earlier on the beach. Greg asks Garnet if he should be worried and she says "Steven will be fine." The PSYCHIC, BLUNT, FORMER LEADER OF THE CRYSTAL GEMS, ANSWERS GREGS QUESTIONS WITH A SIMPLE STEVEN WILL BE FINE. She could have said "We'll be fine" or anything else but she specifically says "STEVEN will be fine. And she says it with a blunt and somber attitude. I don't know about you but to me this is blatant and Obvious foreshadowing.

I've heard an interesting theory about the diamonds which states that each the diamonds represent a form of grieving: Pink : Avoidance Blue : Sadness Yelllow : Anger White : Denial I think that White Diamonds conversation with Steven fits very well into this whole thing. The reason that she acts so distant and delusional is because she is in denial, still predending that nothing has changed and cutting off Steven as soon as he tries to tell her overwhise.

Here's the thing, gems are basically light made solid. They don't need to breath, eat, blink, cry etc. but we see them do these things and we wonder why the fuck they bother. White is that idea made manifest. She is pure light. She is so utterly alien because she doesn't have any real organic tics like all the other gems do. Even her blinking feels unnatural. She's the perfect gem not just in type or cut, but because she is everything you would believe a completely inorganic, immortal, nigh invulnerable race to be. She's been alive for so long (eons apparently, which google tells me is maybe a billion years so heck) that to her 6000 years probably does seem short. Pink's rebellion probably sounds like a particularly rowdy spring break. If you ascribe to the theory that she was the first ever gem, it's like if you lived through all of world history you'd have a pretty skewed view of human wars.

Something is very wrong with White mentally. Many speculate her being a sociopath but I can't because Blue and Yellow Diamond said she had a bad temper and I know a few sociopaths very well and they don't really feel deep anger. She was dismissive of Steven but not happy. There a saying called "serenity before the storm". It means somebody may be very calm right before they flip out. It almost looked like she was being nice to Steven because he had just arrived but when Blue and Yellow Diamond step in all hell will break loose.

White Diamond is so terrifying because unlike every other villain in the series so far, Steven can get to their emotions and talk to them. But White diamond is quite literally emotionless and won’t let Steven say a single word. She’s the perfect contrast to everything that’s been established in the story so far.

Remember when Steven Universe was about a kid who believed ice cream activated his powers?

The T-Pose is White Diamond’s way of asserting her dominance.

THE WEIGHT OF HOW DANGEROUS AND TERRIFYING WHITE DIAMOND IS ACTUALLY MAKING ME PANICKED And the fact that her "temper tantrum" sent Homeworld split into THIRDS doesn't help either-

what surprised me the most was her outfit. it's very detailed compared to the other three diamonds, she wears sandals, lipstick and eyeshadow and her toenails look like they're varnished! (it was reminding me of 30's style, if anyone has an opinion about that) i understand that, her face being so white and so glowy, it was necessary to make her eyes and lips more visible. but still. this was unexpected to me. maybe i've been watching too much fanart trying to foresee her look. the other diamonds almost look dull now, compared to White.

That magnificent fanart of Yellow at the end reminded me: can we all just stop for a minute and give some appreciation to Yellow Diamond? Understandably, both Pink and White got a lot of attention lately, Blue got some screentime and beautiful animation (not to even mention that everyone love her emotional reaction over Steven) aaaaand Yellow... keeps being a meme. Like, c'mon, she is an icon! I love how different Yellow and Blue are; While Blue's emotions almost rules over her (duh), Yellow tries her damn best to be rational and hide what she feels. Which results in her tossing between being angry, cynical and petulant, but truly you can see that of course, she is annoyed and nervous - but also feels guilty, is deeply relieved and she freakin' loves Pink. I love how real her personality is. And I admire her Great Grumpiness, like damn, her face expressions, gruffy tone and sarcastic comments made this episode for me

i like to think white diamond is a sadistic sociopath i love her

She is like my mother when i was younger and we were out shopping or something like that she was always like *oh no sweety put that back* but with like that death stare 😂

Mother Gothel is White Diamond confirmed!!!😂 I rewatched Tangled after this episode and the two of them are so similar yet such opposites. Both are dominating and intimidating figures of power but Mother Gothel wants to shield Rapunzel from everything harmful while White Diamond thinks nothing of Pink like “ Yeah she ‘ran away’ but she’ll come back when she realizes there’s no internet outside of the house”.

Seeing White Diamond makes me understand Lapis’ fear SO MUCH MORE

Her lack of facial features besides her eyes and such creeps me out.

What's even scarier is thinking that maybe it is all a game even for Pink. Just her playing around being in a rebellious teenage phase of her Diamond life.

Lol what if onion was her spy

The Crystal Gem Star symbol may have been inspired by White's petname for Pink, Starlight.

FINALLY, SOMEONE ACTUALLY PAYS ATTENTION TO TO WHAT SHE SAYS😂😂😂 I've been watching so many videos of theorys and discussions and none have came to the same conclusion😂 THANK YOU

What's weird is that no one even bats an eye at the fact that PINK DIAMOND IS NOW STEVEN. Like, seriously! As soon pink's ship lands on homeworld, white Pearl comes towards the crystal gems and says she needs pink diamond. But without even thinking twice, she singles out Steven as pink diamond! What!? 😑

Too me it seems that White Diamond hates rebellion hence why she would not let Steven talk and why her pearl is so emotionless

I have a headcanon. So starlight is a type of pink diamond and I think that white has nicknames for yellow and blue like canary and halo (types of yellow and blue diamonds)

I've been WAITING for YOUR video Slice ;)

White Diamond is terrifying and scares me for two reasons: 1 appearance alone, and 2, she if transparently abusive. White pearl is a topic of her own but her dialog with Steven comes off to me as an abusive parent not allowing their teenage or even adult daughter to say what's on their mind or bothering her because she doesn't think anything she has to say is valid. Like White believes Pink is only a temperamental child that needs to be disciplined. Even if Roses behaviors on earth were by no means all Benevolent, she had an open mind and really tried to help people and take the time and effort to understand where they were coming from. White clearly doesn't Care, she doesn't think Pink's thoughts or emotions are worth anything, just what she should be doing instead. It's horrifyingly abusive in my eye's. I have had conversations where I was never allowed to get more words in than Steven did, It hurts to be so completely undermined, like my thoughts and opinions don't matter nearly as much as the other persons. Quite frankly, after seeing this interaction, I don't blame Pink for running away to live on earth, I would want to do the same if that was her life before earth.

Can we talk about how white diamond looks like a goddess. Blue looks like a mage. Yellow a knight. Pink a joker.

I have a theory. White knew about Pink being Rose Quartz, she knew she was the cause of the rebellion, but she never took it seriously, as such a long living and powerful being, she never felt threatened by it. However, when things came to a head with Pink's supposed shattering, (that she also knew was a sham), and with Blue and Yellow obviously furious and vengeful, she took an opportunity to punish Pink, by corrupting the whole rebelion, forcing Pink who she knows has the ability to avoid the attack, to watch all the rebellion be reduced to mindless beasts. And eventually be killed along with her beloved Earth by the cluster. Of course, neither Yellow, Blue, nor the whole of gem kind knew who Rose secretly was, nor did Yellow and blue know they would cause corruption instead of destroying the gems. But White did. She planned to secretly torture and then kill Pink, squashing the rebellion in the process. Now, of course, it seems she can no longer do that with Pink being confirmed alive all along, but if Yellow and Blue discover this, I have no doubt it will mean widespread gem civil war...

Yellow mama at the end is great

I have a theory, hear me out! What if the nickname "Starlight" is foreshadowing their origins? What if the light inside of them is like a soul and they simply "soul project." What if White diamond's light came from an actual star and she began to give light "life" from her own light! Hence the nickname for Pink "Starlight" because their sentient souls are from the light of a star/stars?!

When I first watched this episode, WD saying "Did you get everything out of your system?" sounded like she meant having fun and the Solar system, not "Are you gonna behave now?", and that sounded much more terrifying.

I cant stop thinking about how someone is gonna get shattered. It's coming soon, I can tell. And I have a strong feeling it's gonna be Pearl. Earlier in this episode, Garnet said "steven....will be okay", so he'll survive. Connie isn't a gem (unless she gets curbstomped or something which would be pretty graphic so no). I don't think it'll be Garnet since she has two gems, and their on her hands which are also her weapons, so I imagine it being pretty difficult to shatter her conpletely. I feel like amethyst would be too easy...(sorry) and that leaves Pearl. I feel like she'll do something crazy to try and save steven and get herself killed in the process. Just my thoughts though.

My theory is wd is the only thing holding homeworld together so she cant move. So her legs are actually her pearl so to speak she is controlling her pearl because she cant move which explains why her pearl is cracking and why her pearls va is the same as wd

I don't think with the talking to pinks gem theory that it's an expected conversation, more of her refusing to acknowledge Steven's existence and lecturing the gem who cannot even respond to her. Since she has absolutely no humanity from what we know, why would she give an organic life form the time of day aside from him basically being a vessel for pinks gem to her. Plus remember, yes Steven was the one in that telepathic world but poofed peridot and lapis weren't there either. So she could have been treating it as though pink was just that, poofed and bubbled by Steven's body.

I actually wrote a rant about this myself. White Diamond rant When White was asking those questions of Steven, we get a few shocking revelations. When she said that pink “gave them a scare but it’s over now” White revealed that from day one she suspected or flat out KNEW Pink wasn’t dead, right from the start. But then White asked if pink “got it all out of her system”. Yeah you could tell she was angry with Pink, but there’s much more than that. This implies that White never took the rebellion seriously. That right from the start, White saw it as just Pink playing some little childish game or some kind of phase! White had believed that pink would “play hero”, get bored and come to her senses and then come back home to go back to being the version of a diamond everyone expected pink to be! White had always viewed Pinks actions with earth as just an immature child playing make believe or only doing it to know the experience and then come back just to have bragging rights that “I got to do that” And the fact that White wouldn’t even listen or bat an eye when Steven tried to talk shows that White never once cared about Pinks actions or rebellion. To White it was that situation with a parent and child that goes... “You’re a child, I’m the grown up, and I’m always right” White is so set in her beliefs that she won’t listen to anyone but herself. That also leads me to believe that White never cared about life on any planet that was not the gem home world. Or maybe not even Gem life. It’s to early in the new season to know for sure because we only recently were introduced to White Diamond outside of gems gossiping, or talking about the past. The point is, White KNEW Pink was alive, viewed the centuries of Pink rebelling as nothing more than a childish game, and has absolutely zero intention of ever helping or even listening to Steven.

White maybe recorded a message and the real White Diamond is somewhere else.

What I found really interesting is Garnet's assertion of ""Steven" will be fine." with the emphasis on Steven. That makes me think that, unlike many previous theories, White Diamond actually does indeed care for her daughters, Pink included. If we consider White Diamond to be...similar, in some way, to our Pearl, or, maybe, a warped reflection of her, she becomes even MORE terrifying. Imagine Pearl with infinite power, far more arrogance, greater disregard for others opinions, with all her little insecurities stripped away. Then top it all off with Pearl's possessive nature. White Diamond may indeed love her Pink Diamond, but that may, in the end, make this entire situation even worse. "I'm only doing this because I care, Pink!" * wiping the earths surface clean of life *

Slice, so you're not gonna address those gorgeous, glowing, black nail polished toes and feet? K fam.

The reason why white was glowing so bright was because she was controling her ship same way stevens legs started glowing when he controlled the leg ship

I don't think White was talking to Pink either, like you said the pauses aren't nearly long enough, but I could see it as a possibility, if White is powerful enough to reach Pink's consciousness that could be laying dormant within the gem. I know some fans don't like the "Pink is still within the gem" theory but I like it

Can we acknowledge that white diamond has been abusing white pearl

What if White Diamond is an actual Primordial God! She possibly created the other two diamonds too; all so that she could even live as a sovereign and marvel(sort of) at the entirety of her own creation! She took a complex physical of her own design and made a planet and her own species which has been tested-in HER eyes JUST FOR FUN-in obedience and unity even split apart into four factions!

So, my theory is that White’s gem is litterally homeworld, and that homeworl ( aka white diamond ) is a carbon star. They are basically dead stars that leave a massive diamond behind with some other elements. Her birth probably ocurred millions of years ago, and she created other gems to make herself purer, extracting other gems so she would be nothing but carbon, a pure diamond. Then, homeworld got broken, and she got broken aswell, gaining her temper. She also despises cross-fusions, as it completely fucks with her perception of purity. Then she ran different colonies because she seed gemkind as the perfect race. Orgsnics are particularly hated because organic material is a union of carbon AND other elements.

One thing I'm worried about is her Pearl man *just look at her* 0____0 But I'm happy your back from having fun Otaku! 😊😊 *(hugs)*

I love your impressions of WD your voice is really cute you should consider being a voice actor lol

Yo, White is either 1) a sociopath 2) off her crystalline rocker 3) See 1 and 2.

Everyone is considering her to be the final boss, the ideas that she has mind control powers, but did anyone think of the idea that Steven is the final boss? Since we believe that she has mind control, wouldn't she control Steven himself?

The way you edit White Diamonds lip movements while saying her dialogue is soo much fun to hear and watch. And really gets me exited too see all the possible topics to talk about with White Diamond finally here after years of build up and teases.

Otaku STOP! You have me in tears MY GOD!!

While Blue and Yellow are considered Pink's older sisters Yellow being the eldest daughter and Blue the middle child, White is more like their mother (I think?). Which would make Steven Blue and Yellow's nephew and White's grandson.

So like, can Slice do dubs for White Diamond for every episode she appears in? That would be EVERYTHING!

I think white talking to pink is still very plausable. But other than u assumed i don't think pink was answering or something like that. I think she was just talking to the gem and completly ignoring Steven and since Pink can't answer in her current state she completly glossed over it.

Oml that yellow diamond in a bathrobe at the end tho-

White Diamond is a great personification of Lovecraftian horror. When I first saw that episode and appearance, those were the vibes I got. Major props to the show's creators for instilling such an emotion.

omg this just made me so scared for the crystal gems like wtf is white diamond gonna do to them not only that might the diamonds get punished to. She might be mad at them for not destroying the crystal gems on sight im shook...

i knew i would love white diamond and boy do i. im a sucker for powerhouse characters like jasper and yellow diamond but now it’s all about white for me.

WD is terrifyingly beautiful, and she knew what PD had been up to since the beginning. She's literally unbothered by what happened over the past 6000 years and I'm sure she is the worst kind of mad there is: Calm/Silent anger😨 Edit: Loving the Yellow Diamond art at the end😄

Christine Ebersole is the actress doing the voice of White Diamond and White Pearl. She has a great singing voice.

This might sound crazy but I believe white diamond is going to get shattered by a fusion of blue and yellow, with the help of Steven, Garnet,Pearl and,Amethyst. combined as one. There's going to be another civil war. And maybe white diamonds Pearl is going to set her up to her death.

I just thought about how gems can have powers, and that Sapphires, gems in low aristocracy of Homeworld (correct me if I'm wrong), have future vision powers. Watching your video made me think that, yes, White knew all about that, She is White Diamond, She is linked to Homeworld and IS Homeworld. Wouldn't it make sense for Her to also have future vision but more powerful that Sapphires' ? She remained silent because She saw why it had to happen (for what reason ?). Pink gave everyone a scare, they are all thrilled to see her back. But She saw all of it, She always knew how it would play out.

I loved this video! And I hope you had fun in San Diego and you practically read my mind on the first impressions of White Diamond/Pearl. I adore how you’ve analysed WD’s words and actions. Also I was so freaked out by her calming and terrifying words, White is truly a beautifully dangerous gem. She essentially doesn’t see anything that’s happened as a huge deal, she is definitely a antagonist for the show purely for her disinterest in what Steven attempts to say. I am looking forward to seeing more of her now.

"Shine bright like a diamond" oh she is already is a diamond, nevermind

I think the reason white’s Head is glowing is because well... Remember how Stevens legs were glowing while driving pinks ship.( her ship is a pair of legs) white’s ship is a head. Therefore her head is glowing. What do you think?

After watching this episode I was just glued to whites pearl. I believe that our pearl and whites pearl were originally switched and white is abusive towards her new pearl

I have a small speculation / theory that Pink is actually fully aware of EVERYTHING that is going on and has happen while still being part of Steven. There are some things in the show that hint at this to be the case. So White talking directly to Pink while Steven thinks she is talking to him, makes sense and take this to another level.

One thing is certain, she is going to be the most difficult antagonist in the show.

She's mad at the other diamonds, she didn't want to hear the others:blue and yellow diamond,so she just wanted to see pink because she is mad at her

Imagine if Slice was the actual voice actor for White 😂😂 I’m screaming rn 😭😂😭😂

I've been waiting for this video!!!! I love the fact that White is as eerie as she is, because for the first time, we have someone to truly fear. She isn't as emotional as Blue or Yellow, yet appears to be the most unstable (think Hannibal Lecter) this is perfect.

I'd like to see a theory on how Steven is actually going to get White to help cure corruption, or at least, how they'll get off homeworld and/or defeat her..

YES! The white diamond video is finally here! It was a little late so I tried the roundtable but it wasn’t the same

SHE IS MY QUEEN!

To answer your question on how ancient White might be: Blue said that White "hasn't left Homeworld in eons". I googled how long an eon is, just read for yourself. "Four hours ago is not an eon. Eon goes back to the Greek aiōn, "age." An age is not easy to measure, and neither is an eon. Both are just really long periods of time, but in science an eon is about a billion years." In scientific terms, an eon is a BILLION years. That's 1.000.000.000 years. And Blue said she was on Homeworld for EONS not ONE eon. And who's to say White didn't already exist before she decided to stay on Homeworld forever? Saying she "hasn't left" Homeworld in eons implies that she HAS left Homeworld at some point before that. Maybe White is so goddamn ancient, she was created by the Big Bang. So if "eons" can be taken literally, then yeah, 6000 years is NOTHING to White. To her, it probably felt like just a day or two since she's lived so mindbogglingly long. Which, if you think about it, is terrifying.

what if when rose/pd used her shield in the corruption blast it convinced white that it was really pink instead of rose. Like she didn't know that pink wasnt really shattered until the shield reflected or protected herself from the blast. White was the only one to see this because blue and yellow thought everyone was shattered. (this is also why she wasnt at the trial because she knew that pink wasn't really shattered) And now that the secret is finally out and has yellow and blue convinced white knew that pink would be in her possession again on homeworld explaining her cool toned infered knowledge of pink really being alive this whole time.

I would love a round table and slice of otaku collab tbh

HOW IS HYPE OF OTAKU NOT HERE WTF

I don't feel like we have seen white diamond I don't know Some thing about "white diamond" Seems fishy... She has no motion and she sounds like a recording of a person then an actual person She seems... Fake.

Conversation is a bit generous considering Steven didn't even get a full sentence out.

Love this yellow diamond drawing at the end

Am I the only one who want to see white diamond angry 😕

Maybe you could cover white pearl? There is definitely something off about her, and maybe even that is an understatement

Who would find a fight between White Diamond and any god or powerful being, in single combat, from any mythos (Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Roman, Cthulu, Japanese, Chinese, Warhammer, etc.) to be awesome or at least entertaining.

That white diamond impression though 👌😂

The fact that White brushed off everything Pink did and caused as “A game” says that she has seen worse. WHAT’S WORSE TO HER!?!? Something tells me we’re not gonna see Beach City for awhile.

In that episode greg questions garnet if there gonna be fine, and garnet said “Steven... will be fine.” But what about the others? What about Connie? Pearl? Amethyst? GARNET!?

I just think White Diamonds nonchalant words are to show how detached from feelings she is.

what if we were theorizing whites powers wrong all along. I mean if she is THE gem matriarch, what if all gem powers and abilities come directly from her in some way.

I'm so glad that I subscribed to this channel 😁 This channel is the best😍

I used to theorize that White had the ability to see through the eyes of other gems. Now, I don't know what to think.

Maybe White is hella mad she didnt figure out what happened and/or mad about being tricked by a low tier diamond? (Sorry Pink but you're way less intimating than the rest) and thays why shes so short with Pink/Steven

I think I can just feel the radiating anger and sarcasm behind that calm demeanor of hers, and it scares me.

Should Smoky quartz and Rainbow quartz be renamed?

If she knew that Pink Diamond was Rose Quartz, how could she let Bule & Wellow suffer?‼️

Love your video and the fan art of Yellow Diamond at the end ❤️💛

white diamond sent steven to pink's room pink you're grounded

Ultimate White Diamond hype man!

What if white diamond is a star and that’s why she’s so bright

Dayum yellow lookin like a straight snack at the end😂😂😂

White seems physically blind to me. She rather sees, not their physical form, but their gem, their aura. Because, to me, I feel like white would 100% comment on the different look of her. Maybe since she seems to have more mental powers she has seen the future, as a sapphire would but on a larger scale. I dunno, but I want to see more of her. I need it.
