>>113685561Not that anon, but my issue with their worldbuilding mainly has to do with how they depict the situation on Earth.
The Crystal Gems have seemingly been fighting corrupted Gems on a roughly daily basis, with some basic math dictating that the world would logically be hellishly riddled with these monstrosities if they continuously fought this many corruptions. Humanity seemed to develop just fine however, despite how such a ridiculous number would easily leave the CGs overly occupied to where humanity wouldn't be able to rely on them for assistance.
Humans are also completely clueless and/or uncaring about the various extraterrestrial phenomena for no good reason, only being "vaguely aware" according to Sugar and would much rather keep their distance. This is honestly just bad writing that contradicts the most basic of human nature that nearly every other story of this nature understands. Real-life humans have studied and created the technology that led to nuclear warfare and power plants, so you can't just tell me that the show's modern-day humans wouldn't attempt to tear down the various extraterrestrial constructions to see how it works just because it's too spooky to them. The only person that dared to look into any of the Gem artifacts seemed to be Buddy Buddwick, only to have his discoveries shoved into some obscure library.
Now I understand that having an entire five episode arc about the evil human military knocking on the CGs' door would distract from the themes of the show, but just ignoring how humanity would react to the giant space hand crashing down on Earth while the trio of space lesbians try to hide the remains of it is too ridiculous to ignore. Either explain it to an understandable extent or pick a different setting to tell your story.
You can't encourage speculation of various elements in the show while neglecting the actual planet the show takes place on, which just consists of random trivia and a cheaply edited world map.
