Forgiveness and redemption and everyone living up to the potential to better themselves are all very much in line with SU's themes though. I get being sick of the pattern throughout fiction as a whole, but SU is a weird show to pick out as the one to break that particular pattern.

To the extent that Steven Universe is an allegory, it's about dysfunctional families and other relationships where LGBTQ people are involved, not Black Lives Matter or Trump or emergent fascist movements. White Diamond's dysfunction is an uncanny mirror of some of my family dynamics. My very 1950s/1960s-values grandparents offered limited indulgence for me as queer young adult, but demanded that I button up and become a straight-passing professional and parent by 25. (They kind of won that battle on many levels.) People expecting White Diamond to be dragged before a tribunal are misreading the metaphor.

No offense, op, but this show is intended for eight year olds. What do you expect?

And no kids' media has ever had villains that weren't redeemed?

I would have loved to see her get at least a few more episodes to be the cruel, heartless matriarch she was built up to be. Unfortunately, CN is really bad about not giving shows enough time to progress naturally and the writers have to scramble to make due with the limited time and funding they have. I hate how so many shows seem to have such terrible pacing issues.

I mean, a lot of this show is also about how flawed people are despite their position on sides. So.

Watch Naruto, the one female villain is the only one Naruto does not even try to redeem.
