“Steven Universe Future” episode 15 & 16 are up next after a surprise announcement that "Future" did not end in just 10 episodes like what was believed. After going on hiatus for almost three months, episodes 11 and 12 were released on March 6 followed by another two stories on March 13.
Is the series concluding already?
It was really a surprise because fans have been looking forward to “Steven Universe” season 7 but what they got was the second half of “Steven Universe Future.” But then again, while it is nice that Cartoon Network brought new stories, it seems that it is not completely good news because Rebecca Sugar announced that this is the final 10 episodes of the series.
“I’m so excited for the final episodes of ‘Steven Universe Future’ to be out in the world, and so grateful to our audience for supporting our show for all these years,” Variety quoted Sugar as saying. “It has been an eye-opening experience to meet the community that has come together around the show: I have been so moved, and I have felt so seen.”
The show creator added that knowing that the show inspired many artists to draw and families watched it together, she is filled with awe and her love for animation was renewed. Sugar thanked those who followed the series and ended her statement by saying that even though the epilogue of “Steven Universe” is ending, “please trust that like us, these characters will always be growing, changing, and supporting each other.”
