"Steven Universe" season 4 has been confirmed to make its comeback on Cartoon Network, where the new episodes are said to discover Steven's new powers. Now latest leaks revealed "Steven Universe" season 4, episode 7 titled "The War." This is being speculated to show more of Steven's potentials as he is reportedly coming back in a much older persona. Meanwhile, as season 4 initially gathered lower viewership, a fifth season for the hit animated series is said to be impossible for now.
Previous reports said that Yellow Diamond and Blue Diamond are set to pay Steven a visit in the upcoming new episodes of "Steven Universe" season 4. With the leaked episode 7 titled "The War," fans have been quick to conclude that the war will follow the speculated stint of Yellow Diamond to collect the Crystal Gems. It has been said though that she will fail in her attempt to capture the gems.
However, a second theory came out claiming the war will feature Rose Quartz's past bouts to protect the earth from her co-gems. It can be remembered that past reports have been speculating the new episodes to heavily feature Rose Quartz. Along with her starring the show, her past is said to be rediscovered and fans will learn more about Gem Homeworld.
More spoilers for "Steven Universe" season 4 revealed that Steven will manifest new powers. As previously teased by series creator Rebecca Sugar herself, Steven will come back in his older version, leading to theories that he will showcase a more matured level of power. Also, in the promo video that Sugar released at the NYCC 2016, Steven can be seen helping Peridot and Lapis Lazuli in their problems with a pumpkin. This then led to the revelation of Steven being able to create and control things.
None of these theories are yet confirmed by Sugar and Cartoon Network, but fans can look forward to further revelations as "Steven Universe" season 4 is rumored to continue airing new episodes this November until January.
Meanwhile, "Steven Universe" has indeed been attracting a large fanbase, but its viewers gradually decreased when season 4 premiered. Compared to the first three installments of the popular cartoon show which ranged between 1.5 and 2 million viewers, "Steven Universe" season 4 only retained less than 1.5 million of its audience. Because of this, its renewal for a fifth installment is said to be far from happening. Yet again, no confirmation about the said rumor has yet been made, so fans can keep their excitement for their favorite boy wonder's return.
