This is my biggest video project to date, a 45 minute analysis on as much Steven Universe as possible. To facts you already know, to the most obscure.

FYI, I was not the one who created the Iceberg, credit goes to @bisrnuth on Twitter, I'm just here making a video on it.

    Small correction: Pearls secret rap wasn't made for the video, it's a real song featuring DeeDee made way before she was in Steven Universe
  • @CharlyQuinn7
    Naked Bismuth was a scene in which the artists literally forgot to give Bismuth pants. For multiple frames...
  • @iiawesomej
    I believe “clone connie” is referring to an animation error at the end of Change Your Mind where multiple Connies can be seen in the background at the concert.
  • @ikatulo_yt
    34:30 I'm pretty sure "leg" is referring to an edited photo of pearl where her entire body is replaced with just her leg. Like her neck just connects to a single leg that keeps her head upright. 😂
  • @beeshrooms
    Naked Bismuth is about a scene in the "Bismuth" special episode (during her sparring match with the Crystal Gems) where the animation team accidentally colored Bismuth's pants with Bismuth's skin tone. As a result, for a few moments when she speaks to Pearl, it looks like Bismuth is wearing nothing else besides her apron, haha. Cheeseburger Tree is an inside joke between Rebecca Sugar and, I believe, a writer about a scrapped story plan where Lars and the Off-Colors hear about this planet with a tree that grows cheeseburgers, so they go on a mission to find it. Rebecca Sugar didn't like the idea or they ended up just not going forward with it, but the writer would always jokingly bring it up to her, so it became a joke between them. I believe this is from one of the art books. I first heard about it in one of AwestruckVox/The Roundtable's videos that released after the series's finale. Thanks for the nice long iceberg video!! B) It mustve been a lot of work collecting the pictures and footage for and editing together

    The "Who sings Escapism" is a reference to how Sugar sang the song to the public months before the episode was released, but didn't reveal which character would sing it, so the fandom began trying to guess who the singer would be. Common guesses included Lapis Lazuli and Pink Diamond. The person who posted the leak about Lars' death was Zach Callison, the voice of Steven, but he quickly deleted it. He probably thought it was okay to share it, but then Cartoon Network called him and told him to take it down. The "Gregmethyst" one might be a reference to that moment where Amethyst says she saw Greg's junk before (she was referring to Greg's trash, but "junk" is also a slang for penis, so people started joking around that this meant Greg an Amethyst had sex). The Pink Diamond hot topic T-shirt did reveal Pink Diamond's design before it was in the show, but only her legs. When the shirt was released, we had only seen her upper body and didn't know what her legs looked like. "Blue Diamond dark hair" might be a reference to Blue Diamond's mural in the moon base having dark hair, so everyone thought her actual design would have dark hair. For a second I thought the "Delmarva-verse" was a reference to how several Cartoon Network shows take place in locations that are based in the same real world places (Steven Universe, OK K.O., Craig of the Creek) and people jokingly say that they take place in the same universe, but when I went to check, the meme is actually called the "Marylandverse", so this is probably referring to something else. "It's not an outburst dropbeat" is a reference to how the audio for that scene was leaked before the episode came out, but whoever leaked it decided to add some techno music playing in the background, probably to trick the website's detection so it would be taken down. "Barn'd" might be a reference to an old joke in the fandom that whenever a character was no longer useful to the plot, they would get barn'd (meaning they would go live in the barn and be kept out of the story). "Naked Bismuth" is a reference to the scene where she poof Lapis during the flashback (I believe it was in the episode Same Old World, but I might be misremembering it). You can't see bismuth's clothes in the scene, probably because they didn't want to fully reveal her design until she got her won episode. "Young Steven holding Spinel's gem" is a reference to a fan-made picture of pre-time skip Steven holding Spinel's gem. You know how you can pay to watch full movies on YouTube? YouTube thought that fanart was a real screenshot of the movie and used as the cover for the Movie for a while. "Crew loves Japis" is a reference to how some Crewniverse members liked to draw Jasper and Lapis in romantic situations just for fun. "Cheeseburger Tree" is a reference to how some members of the Crewniverse wanted to add an episode about Lars going on a space adventure with the Off-Colors to find a legendary cheeseburger tree, but it ended up never being made. "Channel" is a joke made on 4Chan. After the Movie came out, 4Chan decided to jokingly make Spinel their mascot, so they drew a green version of Spinel with different hair and gem (both shaped like the 4Chan logo) and wielding a hammer instead of a scythe. The name "Channel" is a mix of the word "Chan" (as in 4Chan) and "Spinel". "Pink Pearl is the villain" is a reference to how Pink Pearl was originally going to be one of the main antagonists in Steven Universe Future, she would activate the old Era-1 Pearls and use them to fight the Crystal Gems, but the writers changed their minds about that and made Pink Pearl an ally to the Crystal Gems instead.
  • @anibalscott
    Bro made an iceberg video and didn’t know 40% of them💀
  • The whole "Ruby is Blind" is a reference to a theory that Ruby is blind when unfused with Sapphire, but the line, 'Quiet, I can't see' is actually referring to how she can't use future vision, as stated by Rebecca Sugar.
  • @user-vc3uo3nw3n
    i think "pink pearl the villain" refers to that at one point, the crew had an idea to make pink pearl as a mini villain in future. it was talked about in Steven Universe: The Complete Collection DVD
  • @Jordan-pp5bo
    The Blind Ruby thing is a reference to Ruby saying "I can't... See..." In jailbreak It wasnt that she couldn't see, it's that she was so used to having future vision, and was commenting on how she could not just see where sapphire was using future vision, as they had been garnet pretty much constantly since Steven was born
  • fun fact: peridots, in real life, actually shrink, so peri becoming smaller isn't a mistake, they just did their research.
  • @RadarTheBrave
    4:07 Many fans believe the chest symbolizes Rose’s secrets being revealed. How during the series, it was always closed because everyone (except Pearl) didn’t know Rose was Pink Diamond. Then in the movie, the chest is open because at that point everyone knew her secret and it was no longer hidden away.
  • @Jepegish
    I think the "WE-" might be referring to Steven's song "We- are the crystal gems" but idk. Seems a bit tame if you ask me so maybe not?
  • @lalas181
    From what I remember, "Connie Clones" is likely referring to an old theory that in the episode where Steven and Connie went into Rose's Room to play-act a new ending for a book series they like, the real Connie wasn't the one that came out of the room with Steven at the episode's end. According to the theory, it was the Room's Connie that came out of the room, and the real one was left trapped in there forever or something. Again, the theory is really old so I'm probably misremembering some things about it, but yeah. That's the gist of it.
  • @I_love_dr_stone
    Gregmathyst canon probably refers to when Amethyst goes "I've seen your junk before" in Maximum Capacity
  • @rody73
    LChild Steven holding spinels gem “ it’s a fake leg that mikecat drew, it’s probably the biggest fake leak and was used in official press about the movie lmao
  • @beaniebean4885
    I'm surprised the whole 'skinny rose' thing didn't come up in this video.
