SUCH A GOOD EPISODE
blessed
oh no
i’ve heard that ruby was kind of two-faced but this is RIDICULOUS
Hit the Diamond synopsis from French website.
Steven and the Gems are amazed to see five Rubies, soldiers sent by
Yellow Diamond, leaving the ship-tracker. Garnet unfuses for Ruby to
infiltrate the group and discover what their real purpose is, but it
arouses the Ruby soldiers’ suspicions. To prevent them from searching
the premises and finding Peridot, Steven challenges them to a baseball
game: if they win, they will have the right to search, if they lose,
they will leave forever. This is a team of Steven, Pearl, Amethyst,
Sapphire and disguised-as-a-human Lapis, who faces the team of Rubies,
infiltrated by our Ruby…
The Ruby and Sapphire Peanuts promo
Wow, I didn’t expect so much anger over a cute picture of Ruby and Sapphire.
I’m pretty sure Ruby and Sapphire are supposed to represent Peppermint Patty and Marcie in the picture. Sure, “bestie” isn’t how you describe the relationship between Ruby and Sapphire, but what else could you really choose for this type of picture? Sure, you CAN do Steven and Connie, but you’d have to have one guy and one girl for both Steven and Connie. For something to represent Peanuts, Charlie Brown and Linus or Peppermint Patty and Marcie are probably your best options. I think the latter works. I mean, Ruby and Sapphire kind of look like they can fit in the Peanuts universe as well.
Tl;dr version: They’re trying to appeal to kids, and not everyone is going to be dating. No need to get mad over CN for it. Of course they’re aware that Ruby and Sapphire’s relationship goes much farther than being friends.
Marcie and Peppermint Patty were pretty gay anyway.
