Jaspers character is perfectly understandable. She was subjected to borderline torture as well as solitude. Her mental state regressed, and continued to do so sharper and sharper with each loss. Lapis, smokey, then stevonnie? Going as far as fusing with a monster, a corrupted gem? She was never an unbreakable wall, she was a cracked dam waiting to burst, as evident during her end. She was always sensitive about pink. She didn't slaughter crystal gems out of desire to hurt - she was hurt.

Pink diamond: love Blue diamond: greiving Yellow diamond: insecurity White diamond: maturity

I think White D might be the most emotionless and alien-feeling of all gems we've met so far. Like, Yellow will seem like a fussy kid compared to her. And she will be a great contrast to empathetic Steven. He just won't be able to relate to her, but that doesn't mean she's gonna be evil. She just needs to have things explained to her gradually imho.

"Garnet is off alone" She is never alone 😉😉😉😉 I will let myself out Edit: woah 150 likes! Holy crap! Another Edit: 200? Wow. Am I that funny

WATCH OUT MY DIIIIIAAAAMMMOOOOOONND

SU just needs to air an episode already. Idc if it's a filler episode, I just need more SU

I've heard people say that White was absent in The Trial because 2 of Homeworld's matriarchs were already there. I highly doubt one or more Diamonds are present during EVERY trial that's being held. There are probably gem judges for that, just like how there are gem lawyers (Zircons). But Rose/Steven is the most special and important case ever, so not one, but two Diamonds attended. That's two more Diamonds than usual. They had to stop what they were doing, probably something important, and make time for this. Steven's trial didn't need three Diamonds. Besides, White probably had other stuff to take care of. She was off doing something, conquering a planet, leading her Homeworld, whatever it is that she does on the daily. Someone needs to keep the rest in check while Blue and Yellow are busy.

Another parallel between garnet and white diamond is that they're COMPLETELY MISSING FROM THE PAST TWO SEASONS

Next thing you know .... she will just appear in season 6.

Garnet is never alone, shes got sapphire and ruby c:

Steven universe has taken 5 years (real time) to get this far, anyone else utterly over the constant hiatus'?

Blue doesn't have it with her to shatter her sister's creation

Understatement of the universe Blue Diamond is an emotional wreck

I think they should make a episode where it shows one of garnets solo missions. it could show how good the sound is cause garnet doesn't talk really

Maybe the diamond are just a projection of Stevens mind because he is in comma in a hospital somewhere

MY DIAMOND IVE ARRIVIED

I love the idea of White Diamond being a level headed leader who managed to move forward. But one thing that bothers me is the whole thing about Homeworld society frowning on fusion. Is it possible that Pink Diamond's shattering was actually a fusion accident? Here's a little story of how it might go, but know that I'm probably missing details or getting things wrong: Perhaps Pink Diamond's entourage was mostly missing because Pink Diamond herself attempted a bold move to catch Rose Quartz off-guard with only her Pearl and a few other gems accompanying her. Rose however was planning an ambush herself to catch some of Homeworld's forces off but ended up choosing where Pink Diamond was heading unknowingly. Before Rose could do anything, Pink Pearl really does shout an alarm, but in her attempts to block the incoming attack, Pink Pearl accidentally fuses with Pink Diamond. A fusion with a Diamond however is extremely stressful for both involved (Diamonds are really high on the hardness scale), and the strain, even despite the bond between Pink Pearl and Pink Diamond, resulted in the two shattering. Those who witnessed it only remembered Rose Quartz with a sword and something pink happening at the time of the shattering, but otherwise everything was going too fast for anyone to get a good look at and know what occurred. As a result, Homeworld assumed for the most part that Rose Quartz did it. As for White Diamond? She understood that fusion had something to do with it, but made the choice to let the assumption happen because they still had a war to fight, and convincing her subjects that the leader of this rebellion was willing to shatter their leaders might raise morale in the form of gems seeking vengeance. At the same time though, White Diamond started trying to influence her Homeworld Gems to shun fusion to prevent this from happening again. As for Rose herself? Rose Quartz saw the positive side of fusion, but was afraid that this incident would scare her fellow Crystal Gems out of experiencing such a beautiful thing. Because of this worry, Rose took the blame when relaying the news to her fellow Crystal Gems. Bismuth however knew that something was off, for Rose's sword could not shatter a gem, but this did inspire Bismuth to invent the Breaking Point. After all, Bismuth thought, if a Diamond could be shattered, why not use this on Homeworld leadership to truly end the war once and for all? I know this is a big one, but what do you think?

Anyone miss jasper ?

I agree with the parallel theory, BUT HERE IS THE NEXT QUESTION I POSE FOR YOU: If Garnet is literally the embodiment of love, will White Diamond also be the same or a different type of love? Or will she represent the exact opposite of love there by putting the very core value of the Steven's Universe at risk?!

1:43 holy crap thats a creepy face

maybe gems age mentally and not physically? White is the oldest of all gems so she's most likely the most mature

Wait, wait, hold on a second... I know it was just a throwaway line in the video but it's going to bug me... there are actually people who don't like Peridot's character evolution? What the heck? First of all, she was never meant to be a "cunning and clever" villain; she is intelligent, yes, but she is still a low-ranking mechanic who was sent to Earth to do grunt work. As season 2 went on, she was lost and straying further and further from her area of expertise, which is why her cold facade started to fall and she started acting scared and angry; then, when she befriended Steven, he helped her to be more open-minded and happy on Earth. Peridot, in my opinion, is a fantastic example of well-executed character development. She's happy and enjoying life with her friends now. Why would she still be cold and cruel?

Gems/Humans that have cried (Onscreen anyway): Lapis: No (And I don't think she ever did, but will probably cry when she's trying to leave Earth, or coming back.) Peridot: Yes Garnet: Yes Amythyst: Yes Pearl: Yes (Always) Steven: Yes (Or else it isn't my Steven) Connie: Yes Jasper: No (Because she's a Cheeto, and you can't cry when you're a Cheeto) Aquamarine: No Topaz: Yes Blue Pearl: Yes Yellow Pearl: Yes Yellow Diamond: Yes Blue Diamond: Yes (Of course lol)

So, since Garnet is only the leader by default, what if WD was not meant to be the leader? If Pink is a parallel to Rose, what if Pink was intended to be the main leader, but her untimely demise meant that WD had to take over the role and become the leader? Maybe, much like Steven, Pink was being trained by the rest of the diamonds to become the next leader so that White would no longer have to take control of the diamond authority?

9:16 Remember. Garnet is never alone.

White is the absence of colors. There's no way that White diamond would be a fusion. Black is all the colors together. However, I believe white diamond is obsessed with perfection. She may be a little ruthless, but not entirely.

Also if gems are made of light with the expection of water based gems like lapis aquamarine and blue diamond they have they would not able to make water from their faces

Wow this video made me SHOOK!

What if white diamond was really full of herself and the other diamonds just sigh as she waltz on in And the reason no one wants to talk about her is because everyone just hates her, or this already happened and she's an enemy to the diamonds Another thing could be she's secretly a fusion (if she is based off of garnet) and the other gem/gems r hidden

Dude, this is a perfect way to categorize her! If White underestimated her enemy and lost because of it, but Garnet's doing the same though, then she really needs to get her shit together and keep history from repeating itself or Homeworld will win. Also, UNLIKE Garnet, she has her gemstone on her forehead like Pearl and Peridot, therefore is more intellectual. I hope this shows alot, and that she's very manipulative. Hell, she might even find out Steven's literally half human and not fall for the whole "I have her gem so i'm her" schtick.

I have a huge question about Garnet when are we going to see those animals again in that dimension where she fought ultimate Ringo

Hay ur like the only theorizer I like watching for my faveriote show in da whoooooo world

This is what we thought. Instead we got a psycho obsessed with perfection resolved in a few episodes.

I love your theories there the only mental break I get from college

1:44 nuff said.

She's like the so called 'evil' Morty; Cold, Calculative & possibly 'heartless''

I think White Diamond will be calm, cool and collected, but also be a heartless ruthless tyrant at the same time. This would make her even more dangerous and would make her the greatest villain in Steven Universe. She can't be reasoned with, nor have her mind changed and will do anything to accomplish her goals. She'll be a gem that Steven won't be able to talk her out of her actions and it'll make him realize that there are gems that just have to be shattered for the sake of the safety of his loved ones and his planet.

Ok, I just got this thought in the middle of the video, but... WHITE DIAMOND SHATTERED PINK DIAMOND So, what I think happened is White was jealous of Pink ( I'm not sure why), shattered her, blamed Rose quartz, then disappeared, hence why we never see her. This probably isn't it though.

"We need to form a hypothesis" ITS 7TH GRADE SEICENCE ALL OVER AGAIN OH GOD

This hiatus will never end

i hope white is a mother-ish person, kind to her allies but strict, firm but fair, and unforgiving and ruthless towards anyone who'd hurt her children, and i hope when she's first introduced she does seem ruthless, maybe she's first introduced she meets steven for the first time and is ruthless towards him, trying to intimidate and kill him, never missing a beat and constantly trying to get under his skin and mess with him mentally (with well placed words, not powers) and succeeds because of the trauma he's experienced.

I personally feel like Jasper losing her edge is like Azula. She’s become so set on her goal, to destroy the Crystal Gems, that she just threw everything she had at once, instead of strategizing.

I was literally just watching that Slice of Otaku video

Sees that a white diamond theory was posted... sees it's by the roundtable. SCREW SCHOOL

I have a theory. During the steven universe opening when the song comes to the part where it says garner, amythest and pearl, and steven, change all the characters to the diamonds stated in this video it will be white diamond=Garnet, Yellow diamond= amythest, and Blue diamond= and pearl, and pink diamond= steven. This follows the pattern from strongest to weakest diamond. So this video might be 100% true.

This...this would be good..well thought out, but I disagree on the fact that White Diamond would be a fusion. The reason why I said this was because there is a mural of White Diamond on the moon base back in "It Could've Been Great" and "Back to the Moon" But...if the Diamonds are parallel to the crystal gems then what the diamond base on the moon is parallel to the temple, Garnet has a room and White Diamond has a mural...hm You might be on to something. I like it! Keep up this wonderful work

*"hElLo StArLiGhT, yOu CeRnTaInLy GaVe EvErYoNe A sCaRe"*

I think the reason why the Diamonds are so lackluster is to push the message that these characters are VERY unexpected. LOOK AT AQUAMARINE AND TOPAZ. We thought that Topaz was gonna be intimidating as heck while Aqua was just a bratty, annoying little kid. But nooooooo Aquamarine was pretty intimidating (SHE CAN STOP *ALEXANDRITE* AND 5 HUMANS WITH A TINY WAND AND TRIED TO KILL SOMEONE ONSCREEN) and Topaz is a complete cinnamon roll.

vox: this video is about white diamond also vox: WELL, JASPER

PLOT TWIST a random person from the future and spills the beans - WHITE DIAMOND IS A FREAKY GODDESS THING

HOORAY IM EARLIER THAN LAPIS's REDEMPTION

lol It's hilarious to watch these after knowing everything

white diamond is a mother trying to coop with the recently lose of pink diamond

I never felt the diamonds were disappointing. Although I agree that some of the other villains were disappointing, the diamonds were very satisfying. I thought their instabilities, immaturity and impulsiveness make them better. They’re relatable and unpredictable, and it works well. I think White Diamond’s gonna be really cool.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CAN HEAR THE RECENT PODCAST?

Not to be mean your my favorite KZfaqr

Pink Diamond was behind her own shattering in order to force the Diamond Authority to back off Earth. Even the rebellion was Pink Diamond's idea. Just a big show for the Authority. That's why all the defeated gems are bubbled, not shattered.

You have 1/4 of 1 mill subscribers! Crazy how time flies and how close you are to 1 mill. I know you're chanel isn't about the subscribers, but it's nice to see your content getting more recognition :). Keep doing you 👏

I still think the Diamonds still think they are superior to everyone else.

Su needs to come back, I'm beginning to lose interest in it.

Topaz was emotional because she was a fusion, aquamarine remarked that fusions get emotional, meaning that fusing too much (along with abnormalities in gem construction/growth perhaps?) could cause them to be like the crystal gems.

*Dammit you interrupted my body rolls*

I gave up on this show ages ago! Yet i still watch these videos! XD

The sound i made when i say this notification was very VERY INHUMAN

has anyone else noticed that the diamonds match up perfectly with the four temperaments? yellow is choleric - angry and forceful, blue is melancholic - sad and quiet, white would be phlegmatic - the mediator and probably very reserved, and pink could very well be sanguine - enthusiastic and social. the colors kind of match up too; when people thought that these temperaments came from various bodily fluids, yellow bile was responsible for choleric personalities, black bile for melancholic types, blood for sanguine types, and phlegm for phlegmatic types. I've been thinking about this for a while and thought it might be interesting to you!

I dOn'T bElIVe ShE iS tHe RuThLeSs TyPe If only u knew Lol

How many kindergarten is there

1:45 your new face scared me I don't know what to think about it but after a few seconds I just started laughing

Im so glad the theories about white diamond being a fusion is over. SO glad

Notification skwad

does this mean WHITE DIAMOND IS A FUSION OMFG thats just a thoery

I honestly love peridots character development, it really was amazing. It shows that she was always suppose to act perfect, have a goal and follow through. But when she met Steven, her whole world crumbles. She is shown to 'live in the moment' and be ' flawed '. She learns she doesn't need to be perfect and that she can experience new things. She is finally able to see life as it should be, as Rose wanted every gem to see it as : that life should be experienced and you should learn something knew every day. Granted, it creates heartache but it also creates love and happiness. That's why I love that she went from a mature and orderly gem to a child like g. Because she is experiencing everything as though she is a child and she is happy to have decisions. She is finally able to choose her own path ( it maybe a stupid path but life is about trial and error). Seeing her able to have passions and be flawed makes me happy because she truly understands what it means to be human.

I made a cruddy fan art a month ago talking about how I assumed White Diamond was a fusion, but figured it wouldn't be news to the community so I kept quiet.

First To like my own comment

Characters like Peridot Jasper and the Rubies make the original crystal gems seem BORING!

The feeling when you're actually one of the leaders on their Amino and you get a ton of people following you because of the Roundtable posting a video Rip me

What happen when you peeking when garnet go to a mission by herself(ruby and sapph): Garnet: I love you, i love you too. Do you know da way? I think i know

YO BITCH NOTIF SQUAD

Who came here before 100 likes?

I’m a time traveler from 2023 oOoOooOOoooOo! Also look at this 1:45 both tariffing and hilarious lol

When they do the corruption Attack, Yellow is the first to reach out in anger, Blue follows her sort of sluggishly/ distraught, but White seems to act with slow deliberations, and the others waited on her sign to attack. The revelation will probably be tied to the origin of gemkind

Not first

First

That theory I had for like a year and a half and this is the first time I've herd anyone even say it she never appears but pink is gone and that lead me to it and someone else realizes it now finally.

I feel like with Jasper's corruption and defeat by Sevonnie and Smokey Quartz, it was her gradual mental downward spiral that did, indeed, cause her to lose her edge. Sometimes characters becomes more dangerous and efficient as their mental health deteriorates, but for Jasper, I think it's very telling that when her mentail health goes, so does her normal prowess on the battle field. She can't handle herself, and thus, she can't handle two not as efficient fusions.

I have a feeling that White Diamond is going to appear as a scary, intimidating figure, but actually is a really funny, loving person trying to just be happy and pretend that Pink Diamond was never shattered.

Another Roundtable theory during the hiatus! Nice!

1. I love the face at 1.44 2. I never thought of how the diamonds are like the crystal gems so yeah i agree with your hypothesis on white diamonds personality

i think you right about white being like garnet. but i think she is more like there "mom"(the one creating them. like yellow and blue are moms to there gems) than there sister.

Oh starlight you have no clue how correct you are

So far, I've been running with the theory that the diamonds are all in different stages of grief. No one goes through any of the stages cleanly and each stage can be a mix of the others. Yellow is dominated by Anger, but she's taken denial to the level of trying to forget complete. Blue is a walking textbook example for depression, but is trying to bargain by being able to save Pink if she can just preserve everything Pink ever made. I think White will be acceptance. In cold case murder investigations, family members who have accepted the death of their loved one are resistant to reopen the wounds they've moved past and will often have no interest in attending the trials, which is what I think White is also doing.

9:32 *CHILL MOM WHITE DIAMONDDDD*

"The Shattering" sounds like a new horror movie.

Is steven ever going to explain to the gems how he got away from Homeworld or even how he got back to the gems?

Pearl is the senior member of the Crystal Gems but her grief over Rose was probably why Garnet stepped up to the task instead of her

When you said we cracked the code and played the patron outro I literally laughter the word "what?" Loudly😂

White Diamond could still be a parallel to Garnet in that, though she still misses her loved one, she has to move past it, accept it, and keep reason on her side. Garnet even states something like "I keep it together because I know the effect I have on everyone." That statement is probably the same for White. They have to appear in control and reasonable to keep everyone below them calm.

i want an episode where garnet freaks out and breaks down and steven helps her because why not.
