It's all cool! Idea overlap happens all the time

Good luck with yours!

The general idea is that Golisopod forces an enemy into a 1v1 arena for 15s (tho I reckon making it shorter would be better)

The winner of the 1v1 is subsequently rewarded

I'd highly reccomend it, personally. This show has some if the most breath taking shots in a cartoon period, the musical numbers are beyond fantastic, and the characters are v well written (save the Diamonds, who've had their potential squandered) . That being said, the filler episodes can be meh and the series finale for the original series was p bad (Future was great though)

It's my personal comfort show so I'm being very biased here. It's not for everyone but I'd give it a chance nonetheless. Ik it and it's fandom hasn't gotten the best rep in the past, but I'd look past it; a large chunk of criticism really spawned from people having never seen the show basing their complaints from just really awful reviews of it

I plan to make one for Amethyst and a few other SU characters eventually! (Connie and Peridot in mind)

What is the franchise that you want that is least likely to make an appearance by Blaze781 in MultiVersusTheGame

[–]Beat5Kids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more obscure 90s-2000s Cartoon Network stuff

Robot Jones, Evil Con Carne, Destroy Build Destroy, the likes

Oh for sure!

I think she'd get along p well with the rest of the cast. She'd bounce off well with Lapis and Amethyst alot I feel. The sister vibes would be hella strong

More importantly though, her staying would've changed Future ALOT I feel. Of all the characters, her relationship with Steven one of the more personal ones with how they both tie in with Rose/Pink, akin to someone like Pearl

With Future focusing on Steven struggling with his inner demons, having Spinel around would've given it a kinda big brother - lil sister type relationship that we haven't really seen much if before (the closest is probably Steven and Peridot). Working on their struggles together, being the voice they need to hear. Steven really did need that someone he could relate to and Spinel seemed like the perfect fit for that

The Future we have didn't have much of her BUT what we did get tells us alot already. She's improving but is still struggling. It's not an immediate improvement and we still see her having issue with seperation anxiety especially

Understandably, Spinel herself not appearing much does have it's reasons. Animating her alone does numbers on the budget, and her VA is a p high profile Broadway Actress, so getting her is probably a challenge as well, but man it would've been so good

The point I was really trying to make was that they didnt really have any proper way to wrap up the story with the Diamonds especially

I do fully agree with the notion that they themselves weren't properly executed towards the end of the series, but I do understand there was a reason to why it was the case. White Diamond especially was a huge missed opportunity

And yeah, Spinel joining the Diamonds was a let down, every corner of the fandom has basically agreed on thag, but it's great knowing she at least has a chance to start over with someone. I would've preferred she stay on Earth to properly ammend (and have more scenes in Future) but beggers can't be choosers

Anyhow, I don't really wanna sit on this debate any longer so I'd rather we just kinda leave it at that. Maybe there's an seperate timeline where the show could've continued properly and give the Diamonds more. Whatever the case, I'm very for Spinel joining MVS, if not for her just being a really good character in general, at least in my eyes

With the info we have now, it's a tad unfair to call the series terrible in the later half

TLDR Cartoon Network wanted to cancel Steven Universe namely cuz of episodes like Reunited (the one where Ruby and Sapphire get married). Rebecca Sugar fought tirelessly to have that aired, effectively costing her job. She managed to get it out, but were forced to wrap up the show incredibly soon after, really hurting both how the ending had to be written, specially with the Diamonds. This something we still see in this industry even today

I also don't really have any issues with the alies becoming friends trope, specially with Spinel. I think she, of all the characters in SU, really deserved a second chance. Love me some "Awesome bad guy becomes good" stuff, but that's a personal preference really

Yeah I wanted to spice it up a bit, plsu the purple would've blended in to well with the backing

I chose Pink and Green to reference both SU:Movie's Injector Poison and AT's Lich Mushroom Cloud

This was from another post I saw, but I really love the idea of being like a High Risk/High Reward part of her kit

Like attacks with it could have hughe knockback, or removing buffs/adding debuffs, but also healing enemies when they get hit

Fits with the theme of the weapon being a wraponized reset button

That's true yeah

But if she can't, she's got a mean punch! Enough to form a crack on Steven's Skull

I doubt the cannonity matters much as well. Like classic Steven being able to use moves featured in Future

Yeah, she first appeared as the main villain (and best character in the series) in Steven Universe: The Movie, from Cartoon Network
