The diamons are the types of abuse blue is emotional abuse, yellow is physical abuse, and white is mental abuse. Pink is neglect. Theyre so in tune with there roles it shows even in their powers

*[Yellow Diamond is, and will always be, some yellow Giraffe Clod]*

Yellow's my favorite Diamond! I like how loyal she is for her close ones (I like that in villains) and how she didn't just have high standards for her subordinates but also herself. And she was honestly pretty damn patient with Peridot's call (that was very much against the rules in the first place!) at first considering she was overworking and she even offered to get Peridot a ride back. I can respect that. I think it would've been noteworthy that according to White, Yellow is especially weak for Blue (because yellow absorbs blue light). Seeing Blue hurt because of her attack really seemed to affect Yellow's change of heart.

"ironically, yellow diamonds are associated with Joy, happiness and friendship... hope and optimism" Then again this is the same diamond who's: -'motivated' enough to get work done (despite greiving the loss of a beloved little sister...in her own way) to the point of rushing 'Rose's' shattering. - hand-ship had strike a 'peace' sign in the end of the theme song reprise and... - laughed loudly at spinel's 'thousand year wait' joke.

Yellow diamond has another power She can run On sand With H E E L S

Fun fact, the four colours of diamonds are the same as the four hazard diamonds, and the yellow hazard diamond is used for instability. Yellow diamonds power is to destabilise gem forms

One detail I want to point out is that each of the Diamond's powers seem to be metaphorical for how they were abusive towards Pink Diamond. Yellow's power is that she can destroy the physical forms of gems. Yellow was also physically abusive towards Pink, and would yellow, grab, and throw her. Whether her abuse went beyond that, we may never know, since I doubt cartoon network would allow domestic violence depicted on their channel. Blue Diamond's power is emotional projection, and she'd hurt Pink by making her feel guilt and sadness for things that weren't her fault. White Diamond's power is mind control, and her form of abuse was making Pink feel helpless and have no control of her life or her own choices. I also think that Pink Diamond herself was sometimes abusive and manipulative towards her friends, and her aura power seems to be emotionally connecting with people, but this can be metaphorical for her own style of abuse as well. She'd connect with her friends, and make them feel like she cared about them, but after they outlasted their usefulness, she'd abandon them.

*_[the shocking, the glimmering, the radiant, the Yellow Diamond, My Diamond, the BEST DIAMOND!!!]_*

From what I got from Steven Universe, the diamonds sorta signify generational trauma. With white diamond being the source, passing it on to blue and yellow, and all of them putting a lot of pressure on pink. Like most people in the younger side of the family, pink rebelled, even started her own rebellion. And with Steven, he was able to make them realize the damage the diamonds have done. Especially in the scene with him and blue in the tower, when he asked how many times they locked pink in there. That’s what I think

Yellow is an antagonist with a good work ethic, and that's why I love her! I wish that she got more appreciation from the fandom, but I guess because she enforces Homeworld's rules the most, and she's not as "touchy feely" as the other gems (the hate existed even before we found out about Pink's abuse)

White diamond abuses pink by telling her that she is flawed and making her feel insecured. Yellow diamond abuses pink by physically hurting her. (I assume she sometimes poofed her too since she said "if you don't want to be in a bubble for the next few millenia") Blue diamond abuses pink by making her feel that everything is her fault and she is the one who should apologize. Wow if I were her I would run away too

I'm not first I'm not last But when I see steven universe I click fast

I think that the reason gems embody the opposite of what they theoretically offer to humans in the real world is because they give these abilities to humans through their colour and other stuff. Thus, by giving these things they remain with the opposite which explains their behaviour.

"Also, she got that stretchy neck!" I think Sugar got the idea of Yellow doing that off of a Japanese yokai called the Rokurokubi or Long-necked woman.

Imagine a minecraft update having actually some new ores that are White Diamond, Yellow Diamond, Blue Diamond, Pink Diamond, and make even tools and armors. That would be pretty epic for a gamer.

When she started to cry... it was too much for me 😭

I have a actual pink diamond. One day I want to cosplay as Steven.

Despite my absolute **hatred** of the color yellow, Yellow Diamond is my favorite character in this show.

Season 5 helped tie Yellow with Blue as my favorite Diamond, it was nice to see more of her patient & nicer side. although you could argue that we saw hints of it during Yellow's first appearance (up until Peridot ticked off & insulted her at least)

Yellow Diamond is also really good for making memes.

“We need to talk, about us!” - Yellow Diamond

Who disliked this. Damn clods.

Honestly, Yellow is my favorite diamond. We don't know much about her backstory when u think about it. She's in my opinion is the most interesting diamond.

*“SHE HAS SO MANY DIAMONDS......SHES RICH BIT-“*

fun fact? because diamonds are so hard, they're prone to breaking. Also, I'm looking forward to my favorite diamond - Blue.

The 4 Diamonds are the 4 Humors. Yellow is Choleric, Pink (Red) is Sanguine, Blue (Black) is Melancholic, and White is Phlegmatic. The 4 humors are based on old-world concepts of being out of balance with 1 of 4 bodily fluids, bile, black bile, blood, and phlegm. The "personalities" are divided on 2 spectra, "Introvert vs. Extrovert" and "Logical vs. Emotional." Choleric individuals tend to gravitate towards leadership positions naturally (as we see Y.D. do), and are the Logical+Extroverted types. Y.D. is constantly barking orders and is in constant communication with all her operations, while her opposite, Blue, is constantly by herself (save for her Pearl) grieving over Pink for thousands of years.

Is it possible that when the diamonds were trying destroy the crystal gems, it didn't work because there was no pink. The corruption of a gem links to which diamond was present like Yellow is the Form, Blue is the Mind, Pink is the "Heart"/ +Emotions and White is the Strength/Permanence Yellow Diamond is just vividly awesome 💎💛

It’s great to see character psychology!!

the diamonds are my favorite characters. especially yellow, just her appearance and cruelty are truly extraordinary

I used to dislike yellow diamond for some reason (I think it because of her temper or something) But then I see how broken she is because she is trying so much to play by a perfectionists rules even if it means hurting people close to her and herself. I always see her being the anger of the diamonds.

Yellow reminds me of Vegita when the electricity passed through her face before running or something

She's so cool I love her

1:31 Yeah yeah say that to white diamond

It would be really cute and great if in the next series of Steven universe yellow becomes more friendly, caring,and cheerful in her own way. Just like how yellow Damion symbolise

Yellow reminds me of the kid in a dysfunctional family who tries to keep things together.

Yellow's gem is a princess cut Blue's is a noble cut I like to think pink's is a rose cut And white is either a brilliant cut or a grace cut. If both pink and white are brilliant cuts I like to think pink is an old mine cut while white is a round brilliant.

Yellow Diamond will always and forever be my favorite diamond among the four.

I really like your gem breakdown videos, they're very educational and prove how deep things go in the background and creative process for these characters. Makes me respect Rebecca Sugar even more!!

maybe the yellow diamond meaning love and peace stuff foreshadowed the fact that she becomes happier in the end because there was more balance in between the four sisters

Yellow is power and that power is sexy! Cleveland: "WHAT you don't think power sexy?"

You should do blue diamond next!!

The best moment of yellow Peridot:YOU CLOD!!! Yellow daimond:>:(

Can we just talk about the faces Yellow Diamond make.

I think the diamonds’ new power represent them more.

Do Blue Diamond💎!!!!!

Yellow, is my 💎

I probably like yellow the most because I kinda have the same personality

Yellow diamond looks like an angry anime character on the thumbnail image.

Idk if Yellow actually has a really long neck or if this was a joke Kris is playing, meaning that she knows that Yellow's next isn't actually that long, and it was just Steven's dream.

Can you do Blue Diamond next?

Ugh, I love Yellow so much ☹️

Damn, even her voice is hardcore

Does anyone else want to see all the diamonds (and Steven) fuse

0:48 peri: ARE YOU JOKING THE DIAMONDS ARE THE GEM MATRIARCHS TOGETHER THEY MAKE UP THE GREAT DIAMOND AUTHORITY THAT GOVERNS HOMEWORLD AND ALL THE OUTLINE COLONIES we live to serve them

In this series, are you including the human characters, or is this series just anout the Gems? Also, are you doing seperate vids for Rose Quartz and Pink Diamond, or will they be combined? Also, are you gonna cover Steven? Sorry, I have a lot od questions and this series is really cool.

4:36 it looks like white is saying that

Me :*sees yellow for the first time and does the diamond thing* Me :*sees Blue Diamond for the first time and wants to hug her* Me :*sees White Diamond for the first time and shivers and has nightmares*

7:07 She attac She prottec She got all that nec

Yellow diamond gives gold .

How does this have 12 likes already?

*[do you mean Yellow Pineapple Diamond?]*

50 percent banana 50 percent giraffe I know it was from someone else's comment

Yellow: The Abusive Mother Blue: The Smotherer White: The Ignorant

Couldnt yellow have tried to put 'pink diamonds' shards back together? We've seen steven heal jasper when he shattered her and we've seen yellow put gems back together? They would have known it was a fake and that pink was alive

Technically the first take me to the first diamond

Yellow reminds me of Darth Vader. Darth Vader would try to occupy him self with as many tasks as possible. Yellow seems to do the same it's a way of not thinking about the people they lost.

AKA, Golden Frieza’s ex-wife!... Ex-wife, because Yellow (seemingly) turned over a new leaf.

"Joy, happiness and friendship" yeah that's accurate now

*ugly cries when Yellow finally cries* *EVERY time*

Ohh I mean *QUACK*

"Just scratching the surface," wait, with what? (Hardness joke)

1:16 “She has so many diamonds, SHE’S RICH B*TCH” Lmao 😂

"IM SO FANCY" **subscribes**

the fact that yellow can stretch that long neck of hers feels so uncanny to me😭😭😭💀💀

Yellow diamond is what peridot would call a “clod”.

Since she’s a military commander, what would she think of Earth’s well known conquerors like Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar or even Napoleon?

Then there's the fact that yellow can, if overabundant, supposedly cause people to become irritated and demanding, and it makes babies cry. That's the Yellow I'm familiar with.

The most intense yellow diamonds are found in South Africa Me: COUSIN GUESS WHO’S NOT SEEING YOU ONCE THEY GET TO YOUR COUNTRY

Yo BELLOW DIAMOND YO❤️

imma just try and recreate her into a cosplay for myself. might be a bit harder then I thought but I think I can make it work

You should do opal and her symbolism and if u already have then obsidian and fun fact obsidian is bigger than WHITE DIAMOND 💎

Blue diamond please!

Diamonds are the token birthstone of April - aka Aries - Hot-headed stubborn betties
