The thing about Lars is that he's deeply, DEEPLY insecure. He thinks everything he does and everything he thinks and every interest he has is cringey and embarrassing. And this not only hurts him, but the people around him-because if everything he likes is cringey, and he likes Sadie... In the end she's completely right about him: he's embarrassed to be seen with her. But he's also embarrassed to be seen doing anything at all. I don't blame the people who dislike him, because he's definitely an asshole in the episodes we've seen so far. But I really just feel sad for him.
But did you like him at this point in the show? Obviously post significant events he's much easier to love, but before we knew those things were coming I know I didn't have much patience for him. I think 'your weird mom!' Set me up to be harsh until drastic changes happened.
@@summer6100 while was hined a the farol episode was only in this episode that cliqued to me, "ho , they are going somewhere with him", so i keep open mind. i love slow character building, real character development, media in general usually goes by the easy shock to transform someone(that realistically would cause PTSD more often that a positive change) while that's not bad in itself especially when this is not the focus of the series, it really makes the difference when they go the extra mile
Among Sadie's video collection there was "Nightmare Hospital", with the cover showing a character who looks like Priyanka Maheswaran, leading to speculation that Connie's mom had a secret movie career while in college.
It’s not that they lose touch with their powers, it’s that they genuinely don’t believe they have them, and Gem society is too organized for them to ever be in a position to notice.
The way everyone reacted when lars was rightly freaked out over someone possessing his body and no one caring kinda shows why he's so insecure, even if it is valid to hate him
Steven Universe is so great to me because it does character writing so amazingly and so genuinely. Everyone feels real, Garnet feels like a genuine loving mother who makes time for her kid even though she works a lot. Pearl feels like a loving over stressed sister who raised her brother. Amethyst feels like a genuine big sister. Even Lapis she FEELS real I completely understand her reactions and how stand offish she is to the gems and Peridot. I fell in love with this show because how connected it made me feel to each and every character and their journeys
*looks at amethyst* ... good on you for being the only mature one who tried to comfort steven and help him feel better after finding out that his mother was pink diamond.
I'll give Lars this, he was right to say Steven should've minded his business. Even if he's a jerk and ignores Sadie (and his feeligns for her) Steven had no business getting in their business just because he shipped them. It's a harmful mindset
Hiya! Long time watcher so far, I do wanna make a small correction, Peridot doesnt have telekinesis, but more so metal manipulation. Just wanted to say that because telekinesis is more being to control anything, while Peri's power is more so to manipulate anything metal related. Just figured I'd say that!
Amethyst's hair changed almost entirely because of how storyboarder Jesse Zuke drew her. Zuke was known for adding a lot of cute flourishes and stray locks of hair to characters, but it _really_ made Amethyst episodes like *Too Far, Log Date,* and this one pop because of the obvious care put into making her... uhh hot
I think the redemption arc people are referring to must be in season 5. Or at least thats when I actually started to like him because he had no choice but to let go of all his insecurities since well they technically no longer existed anyway
@@hammyboy2417 yes I know that's why I said to think "like" magneto rather than saying it was the same. Ferrokenisis is a subset ability of what magneto is capable of.
Sadie is one of my all time favorites, her character get so fleshed out and is like the most "human" whatever that means. But I just love her. 💜 - - - And I actually like her songs they are so good, they get played on my spotify on loop(sorry if it may be a spoiler I don't think it is nor a big deal :p)
A part of me wonders if Lars' parents are to blame for his way of thinking. Like, they're lovely people, but you can see how lenient they are with him. You shouldn't be too strict with your child but you shouldn't coddle them either. They may have given him too much freedom when he was a kid, and because of this he became incredibly insecure. When a child has not boundaries, they don't feel safe. That mixed with how he saw his Fryman friend being bullied for who he was, likely set up some very bad insecurities in his mind.
@@deaubrymims2543well of course not.... He doesn't want to show his shame to avoid pity. Nobody likes being seen as weak so he uses being rude and obnoxious as an outlet it's the same for most bullies in shows and movies
Technically Peridote doesn't have Telekinesis, her power is to manipulate metal, which is called Magnetokinesis Just like Lapis (who is a user of Hydrokinesis) this is a elemental power We can also compare that to Ruby and Sapphire, both with thermokinesis powers, Ruby manipulating high temperatures and Sapphire low temperatures
Amethyst different style might be due to art change, Steven universe has many artists and they switch art styles sometimes. Also peridot has an actual twitter account, when they show was still airing. And Steven has a youtube. And I kinda had a feeling Peridot couldn't shape shift because she use to have limb enhancers for that
10:53: Yeah, it's a very cruel thing to do to someone? So it's best to just let go of people who do that hot and cold dance with you. I understand why Lars does it but it's still an awful way to treat someone.
Fun Fact! You’ll notice Peridot regularly says ‘wow thanks’ after Steven told her that’s what people say when they receive gifts
that’s such a neurodivergent thing to do tbh
Ha, wow, that is relatable
It's how she responded after he said "I love you Peridot" in the Gem Drill episode :,-) So beautiful.

I agree with you. I mean, I dislike him, but... I understand him.
fr, just because we feel bad and relate doesnt mean its okay n shi

is it bad that I relate to that? Like the first part, not the 'asshole' part.
Among Sadie's video collection there was "Nightmare Hospital", with the cover showing a character who looks like Priyanka Maheswaran, leading to speculation that Connie's mom had a secret movie career while in college.
I was thinking she knew a movie producer in Kansas that heard about the events in the Nightmare Hospital episode and got a movie based on it made
@fan yilipe that would be too simple! steven universe fans love over the top theories
When Steven first woke up as Lars don’t you think it’s strange that he was buck naked with a magazine on his face
😏
Yeah I can’t believe he didn’t catch that.
Wait WHAT!!!!!!!!! I never noticed that
Peridot's new power is ferrokinesis. It's like telekinesis, but she can only manipulate metal
Metal bending!
Yer a metal bender Peri.
It’s not that they lose touch with their powers, it’s that they genuinely don’t believe they have them, and Gem society is too organized for them to ever be in a position to notice.
Lars has nice parents, but that doesn't mean he has good parents. They seem to be too non-confrontational to properly guide him.
Agreed.
Spineless

“We haven’t heard from Lars in a minute” famous last words

So yeah, you can probably guess, but yes, in real life, peridot gems are magnetic.
I understand lars
He tries to be cool and everyone hate him, and steven does nothing and everyone loves him
That's why you be yourself, trying to act like someone you aren't is bullshit and stupid.

So she's Magneto, not Jean Gray.
Ferrokinesis.

"lars needs a reality check" *knows what happens to lars* uhhhh....Yes
Lars sure needs a reality check. For sure!

Regarding Peridot she doesn't actually have telekinesis it's ferrokenisis which is the manipulation of metal. Think like Magneto.
Didn't think about the fact that'd have its own word, thanks!
@@umeinui no prob bob
Well technically Magneto controls magnetic fields, not just metal.

lars gets done so right with his redemtion

3:54 phew. We avoided another cat mutant situation happening. Those finger cats just multiply without being able to be stopped except for water.
The show does eventually dive deeper into Lars' character, just so you know 👍
Yea
it's coming
i can say this now cuz he’s gotten to it at this point but it’s so fucking funny that lars’ redemption is when he literally dies
Scoot's got a crush on peridot I swear
BRO I HAVENT WATCHED STEVEN UNIVERSE SINCE IT FINISHED BUT THESE ARE SO GOOD TO LOOK BACK AT.
I'm really not sure how Steven got that, but he exclaims Metal Powers - basically Peridot can do like Metallokinesis. Move metal of any kind
I forgot she got metal power damn
How could you forget after what she did in the kindergarten 💨
@@umeinui i have no idea
Spoiler
Especially cause her flying was so cool even if it was a trash can lid
8:45 i actually hear Fuc* the first 6 times i heard it
anyone gonna talk about how steven woke up as lars naked with a magazine lmaoooo
Mmm Lars redemption.
I have the same personality type as him so he has to get better somehow, right?
(Right?)
*gives it up for the shorty squad*
This is fucking with my mind. Where's monster reunion??? When did he react to that??? Season 3 episode 14 is supposed to be monster reunion-

This is kinda the start of Lars’ redemption
Or maybe lars is ashamed of himself and doesn't think hes good enough to be with somebody like Sadie but guess we won't think about that right
That’s not what his actions reflect though
@@deaubrymims2543well of course not.... He doesn't want to show his shame to avoid pity. Nobody likes being seen as weak so he uses being rude and obnoxious as an outlet it's the same for most bullies in shows and movies

Not gonna lie. The show is kinda messed up for this one. Everyone tryna make Lars think he's wrong for being mad at Steven.
I love lars lol
Thanks for the WOW WOW WOWderful video my favourite amagic show
Also because patron already got it when UA-cam getting gravity falls?
I think it’s tomorrow for UA-cam
Scooty scoot !!!!😝
Lars and Sadie predate all the characters on this show
💚👽💚

that lars ep was weird

My favorite show of all time. Already seen it

Never been this early.
Frrrr

I don't like lars..... Yet.
I'll never like him
9:40: Pretty much!
