>>120861828getting rid of her limb enhancers was a huge mistake and completely out of left field even for Amethyst. It was obviously shoe-horned in so they could have smol dot.
The concept of era 2 peridots being malformed is good and all, but making her smol caused a complete shift in her characterization. She lost all seriousness and turned into a total sperg. They bascally turned her into a kid, and I don't think it was even intentional. Just that such a drastic design change mid-show changed how the writers perceived her.
I really fucking miss disgruntled engineer peridot/b-rate villain peri
Her redemption really could have meant something if she had retained her maturity and technical prowess.
Instead they shoved her away in the barn, because they didn't know what to do with another annoying runt character.
We could have had crystal gem peri with her own room in the temple, learning how to summon a weapon, and going on missions/learning to be part of the team.
