I, too, am surprised that when lots of people are starting to demand diversity, complex women and gays in media, something full of diversity, complex women and gays has hit a nerve.

Steven Universe has also been on the air for almost 2 years and has yet to have a billion fan-made conventions, creep out/stalk/harass any of the actors, or have the fans make a documentary about how Totally Not Gay they are while television's John de Lancie sings about masturbating to a children's cartoon.

I mean poo poo, even T-Pain has a gemsona:

And I guess a tumblr page was set up by the animations of the show from that character's point of view where he put up some drawings of his gemsona and submitted it to some stephen universe fan wiki thing of original characters and it got denied lol

There's definitely something off about it. Heaps of its fan art is either self-insert, fetish or slash just like MLP's.

Shows like Archer, Adventure Time and Gravity Falls have been on longer, get their share of bizarre fan art, but more rarely provoke fans into drawing out their kinks.*

*I'm not saying they don't get any. No need to prove me wrong - or do prove me wrong, whatever. This is the weird fan art thread

Earlier in that episode, Uncle Grandpa declared that the episode is non-canon. Then he uses a cannon to launch his head ("headcannon") at a ship carrying two characters the fandom likes to ship, sinking it.

It's the exact same thing like Sonic the Hedgehog or My Little Pony. It's deliberately extremely easy to self-insert onto for kids to play pretend. (But this is the internet, where the children are 30 year olds, so a lot of sexual frustration gets mixed in too.)

Sure, just make them a kind of krieger clone.

While I don't which of them make up the actual couple, I've think I've seen enough combinations now that it doesn't matter.





Unrelated, what's it called when someone draws out their persona and then draws that persona boning their favorite character - I'm sure there's a more elegant term for that brand of self-insertion.

It's common sense, but doesn't go without saying: liking a thing is fine, but going overboard with it isn't fine. This applies to anything made, but it's loving hilarious when that thing is a children's show.

Also, Kreigersonas have already been made. They were all the SCP scientist self-inserts before the purge.
