A nostalgic breeze of air that slaps you on the face with a cat-shaped ice cream.

A random enjoyable episode.
Season 1, a season where episodes is fun and silly with Easter Eggs that was soon explained when the series goes on. Gem Glow is a good episode and where people became a Steven Universe fan.
An entertaining episode!
Well, I thought this episode was good because we are introduced to an interesting conflict about our protagonist and we are also introduced to the Crystal Gems, GOD I love them especially Pearl and Garnet.

Gem Glow
Gem Glow is the first official episode in Steven Universe. It shows the beginning of Steven's journey by showing him first summoning his weapon, his mother's shield, and trying to understand that power. The episode ties in the discontinuation of his favorite ice cream treat into that. It is a pretty good episode and does an alright job of setting up the future of the show. It helps show the differences in the personalities of the main three gems (Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst) and how they relate to story of Steven. As the first official episode of the show, it is likely the episode that got people into the show. Technically the Pilot was the first episode, but this is the first official episode and takes the animation style that would be used for the rest of the series. As well, it does bring some nostalgia for me.
