Summary

Steven eats cookie cat’s and mistakenly thinks they have activated his gem.

Our Take

A decent enough starter that spends most of its runtime establishing the vibes of Beach City rather than telling much of a story. The Cookie Cat bit is charming, and Steven’s enthusiasm carries things, but the pacing drags once you realize nothing major is happening. Fine as an introduction, just don’t expect the show’s full personality yet.
