Dec-scheduled episodes belong to Steven Universe Season 5, not Season 6

While ‘Steven Universe’ Season 5 episode 25 is slated to be aired on December 17, some are considering it as Season 6. But let us ensure you that the upcoming episode 25 titled “Legs from Here to Homeworld” is a part Season 5 (and not Season 6). The series went for a small hiatus after the airing of two episodes jointly on July 6.

The confusion regarding the upcoming episode is a part of ‘Steven Universe’ Season 5, and not Season 6, can be cleared from its Wikipedia page where episode 25 titled “Legs from Here to Homeworld” is noticeably mentioned as the part of Season 5 and the 153^rd episode of the series overall.

Many fans shared on Reddit their views on why the series creator went for a hiatus in July without completing the season. Many believe that the reason for the hiatus was the making of a movie based on the series titled “Steven Universe: The Movie.” Although the plan of the movie was announced on July 21, 2018 at San Diego Comic-Con, the team must be dealing with both the animated television series and movies in tandem.

As far as the returning of episode 25 in December is concerned, the viewers will come to know what happened next after Steven brought into highlight the outcome of Gem War to Blue and Yellow Diamonds, EconoTimes noted. On the other hand, fans will be surprised to see Steven going to Homeworld with Crystal Gems and Connie to search for White Diamond and ask for some assistance. The gang will try to enthuse her to heal the corrupted Gems for the purpose of saving the world. Now we need to wait and watch whether or not Steven and Gems become successful in saving the universe.
