One Villainous Scene - "Hello Starlight" | Steven Universe 

The first scene with White Diamond has the energy of a Mom who is going spank their child, but won't do it right now cuz they're in public, this passive anger seeping out from behind her smile. "Did you get it all out of your system?" = "I thought you were dead for thousands of years, you little brat! You are in so much trouble!"

I truly shivered when White said, "Hello Starlight". It was beyond creepy, with the overwhelming feeling of 'wrongness' behind it.

tI loved how yellow and blue were scared of white's pearl as if her pearl is more powerful than them. IT makes me scared of how powerful white is

White Diamond sounds a lot like GladOS, and I think that's there to purposefully display how emotionally detached she is.

Not gonna lie but when she was first shown she was generally threatening yeah that whole scene was super unnerving. Also just wanted to point out that the build up to her first scene was what really made that scene pop. I mean earlier in that episode or the one before Steven and subsequently us the audience buy pearl and both diamonds that White was unlike anything that Steven has face up until this point. Which was Then followed up with two of the most powerful being that Steven had faced to that point literally cowering in fear of just her Pearl

I didn't know steven universe grew up to become a youtuber

This was a fantastic break down of this scene. For me what makes White Diamond such a great villain is just how condescending she is to Steven when she speaks to him. She treats Pink's rebellion, death and 'rebirth' as Steven, and all the efforts done to help Gems break free of Homeworld as nothing more than a child throwing a temper tantrum. She still sees Pink, and by extension Steven, as that bratty little child who whined and complained until she got her own colony and is ignorant of all the growth Pink went through to become Rose. It also really hits home because I've had family members talk to me exactly like that when I've argued with them about how they were unintentionally treating me pretty badly.

You get a bonus like for the Stephen costume!

Rolling out a chair for this. I am already on board. Also, the Steven Universe wardrobe is REALLY damn good

Great analysis! It really is amazing how they were able to communicate so much with so little screentime. I might return to this video if I ever write a villain for fun someday and need to remember what and how to establish them in their introduction.

9:34 considering people like Darth Vader exist it is possible to have a villain with merger time be an icon

I found white diamond a bit of a jerk for talking over and ignoring steven, she is defiantly the type of villain you're supposed to hate

When I first saw White Diamond, I described her to a friend as an "Eldritch Horror Soccer Mom". So goddamn unsettling!

very plesant to scroll through the playlist and find a steven Universe video all of the sudden. You explained the elegance of this scene remarkably well. Gosh, this is such a good show, I never stop finding new things to like about it,

Dude, your Steven Universe cosplay is ON POINT!

Tbh, I've never disliked White, I loved her and I still do love her, heck she's even one of my many comfort characters, she was my comfort character and my first fictional crush, when I was only 14 almost 15

The serialized format that shows run with...in other words, the format that Japan has been using for oh, around half a century?

3:34 Well, "hateble" they didn't made me hate her, they made me love her, so that's debateble

7:15 No that wasn't white diamond's fault. She was pink's diamond, but she abused her

I did a video on a video game villain since video games these days have better writing than most well-written movies

So what you are saying is white diamond is stuck in her head, while Steven is willing to do the leg work?..... I will see myself out

NICE!!

huh. I remember it more ominous. Also, hello new subscription :D

4:50 Yeah I am looking at her, and she's the most beautiful female character I've ever seen ^u^
