Anyone else notice her pop up on youtube with a lot of new stuff recently?I thought she was kinda semi-retired after steven universe but I was sorta pleasantly surprised her stuff pop seemingly out of nowhere after years of radio silence except minor cameos like in amphibia.Her new song from 4 days ago that I think was how I found that she started posting a bunch of new stuff on the channel.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J77yQcT517EAnd she has a whole bunch of others there too recently.Her new short film from 11 days ago.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OarSVfiSKYAnd she's been posting a ton of shorts discussing inspiration for the music and designs she did for steven and adventure time, mostly yapping about her love for ocarina of time lol.https://www.youtube.com/@rebecca_sugar/shorts
>>150183946does rebbeca go anything else than feel good escapist shit?
>>150184023I mean it's kinda half and half, she likes sappy/love stuff but she also likes to make dark and depressing stuff too.I mean she's basically the definition of artsy calarts girl.
>>150183946>Rebecca Rea Sugar>July 9, 1987 (age 38)There was no way in hell someone with her level of acclaim and popularity was gonna say semi-retired for long, especially when she clearly has a genuine passion for her work.There's like, an itch at that point. You have a job, you're good enough at that job to get tons of praise and the spare cash to coast on, and sooner or later, you're not satisfied because so much of your life was that job to the point your social life and ability to keep yourself occupied takes a massive hit when you stop
>>150184099I mean yeah art in general and especially animation has been dying so I wouldn't be surprised if she just peaced out.I mean making songs on youtube is kind of the definition of semi-retired type content, I doubt she'll get a new show or anything crazy like that.But retiring to just be a once in a blue moon youtuber seems to fit her vibe.
>>150184023> does rebbeca go anything else Most artists find a niche and explore it. You experiment when you're younger and a student, but at some point in your career, it's a good idea to find a path and follow it. Most artists will still explore on the side, but the public may not see much of that. The typical advice is that you want to be the person people go to for a very specific thing instead of being a jack of all trades. If someone wants to order a feel good escapist show, they'll go to Rebecca Sugar, not someone who does it all. And if they want a slice of life with a touch of surrealism show, they'll go to J.G. Quintel, not someone who does it all. Being versatile is good when you're young and learning since it can help you grow but when you're at the point that you're building a career, it's better to be a specialist.
>>150184137>I doubt she'll get a new show or anything crazy like thatshe and Ian have been soft pitching the idea of continuing Steven Universe. I don't think another show (SU related or otherwise) is out of the question. She's in the position where she can be choosy, though. I don't think she'll do a show just because the opportunity pops up. I think she'll do one if the opportunity happens to coincide with something she really wants to do.
>>150184137>>150184469Were you two living under a rock?https://deadline.com/2025/06/steven-universe-sequel-in-works-prime-video-1236430497/
>>150184784she's just an executive producer on it though, so she's not actually involved in making it
>>150184469A Lars of the Stars spinoff is officially in development. Sugar is also co-writing Matt Braly's film at Sony.
>>150184784>if it makes it to greenlightLmao this won't come out until the end of the decade
>>150184023That's like asking if Cormac McCarthy writes anything other than run-on sentences.
>>150184927Isn't he dead, though?
>>150183946>Her new short film from 11 days ago.That's an HD upload of an older work.
>>150184891Pretty sure the IP has just sorta depreciated in value at this point so the networks are gonna hesitate on the trigger. The movie and Future were both meant to be swan songs for the series after the whole "gay wedding" debacle. Say what you want but it's very clear there was someone along the corporate ladder who would have had to go up to bat for them for either of those to even happen considering they were blatantly told that the Wedding episode would lead to cancellation.
>>150183946Sex with Rebecca
>>150184833I would be *genuinely* surprised if she contributed nothing creatively. Not only is it her own franchise, but her name doesn't carry weight in a vacuum. Her name carries weight because it implies a certain level of creative quality she's known for.
>>150185308Gross, she looks uncanny.
>>150185308https://co.llection.pics/post/list/rebecca_sugar/1
>>150184833Pretty sure Rebecca Sugar confirmed she's developing it alongside Ian JQ. Steven Universe is Sugar's baby. The show wasn't perfect, but I admire how she remained heavily involved from beginning to end.
>>150186059Nice
Based Sugar keeping cartoon sex appeal alive
>>150187764Bros... I think I'm in love...
>>150184859the SU movie was actually really good so looking forward to that one.
>>150184784No I knew about that, but I did forget about it. These days I wait until something actually airs for it to be official. Still plenty of time for this to get cancelled due to some merger or changeover in execs, or literally any other reason at all. But you're right, so fair point. >>150184859Same thing with the Braly/Sugar film. Hirsch was working on a series at Netflix too until they decided to just get rid of the whole fucking department. I hope the Braly/Sugar film happens but who knows these days?
>>150188953>These days I wait until something actually airs for it to be official. Good call. I feel like ALL three major projects Sugar's attached to were announced too early. Loads of SU fans don't realize the Lars spin-off hasn't actually been greenlit, Matt Braly's film still hasn't gotten its title or estimated release date unveiled, and it's looking like that Adventure Time movie might go the way of Pen's failed attempt a decade earlier.
>>150183946>worst song gets the fully animated MV
>>150184784>>150184833She’s developing it but it’s not officially greenlit yet. Nobody from boarding and writing department is involved yet outside RS and Ian. Don’t expect it til 2028.
>>150184859>BralyOkay so it might be good
>>150190709yeah, "developing" is just corporate-speak for fucking around.. She's probably drawing and brainstorming ideas, but until a contract is actually signed it means absolute dick. And even then...
>>150183946That Singles short is old, she's had it on her channel for years. This is the 'HD' version which is why the upload is "new", but the short itself is not new and was a student film of hers from 2009https://letterboxd.com/film/singles-2009/https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1493180/https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/255411-singles
>>150184784>inb4, Steven’s POV is swapped for Lars’ so interesting flashbacks are still screwed>inb4 new gem designs still look like they just shat colorful, androgynous blobs on a piece of paper>inb4 magical element the series once had is still abandoned and its sci fi aspect is still all over the place>inb4 human townies get swapped for gem townies and they’ll still waste episodes on human townies
>>150191499There's a music video for a track called "Ice Water" that just came out 5 days ago. Jellybox (the studio that did the guild negotiation PSAs) animated it. https://youtu.be/J77yQcT517E
>>150192789Very cute animation, but knowing these angels are based on real people and how she's portraying them in this video is kinda odd. Like I'm autistic and I would not portray friends of mine from art school as beautiful women always on my mind.
>>150193128I don't really see the problem here. Seems pretty obvious that it's an homage to good friends. It feels way more nostalgic than sexual to me.
>>150183946Ian gets to tap this every night
>>150194183>gets to
>>150194183Rebecca is a non binary tumblrina and Ian is a black nerd hamplanet.They both strike me as asexual.
>>150195127they probably frot like crazy
>>150191499I had no clue Ian voiced the sandwich guy all this time
https://rule34.paheal.net/post/view/844131#search=Rebecca_SugarThe fact that she drews this among a ton of ed edd and eddy porn and hasn't been cancelled is still baffling to me when others have been literally blacklisted from the industry for far less.
>>150196322She was a student at the time so no one cares + she's non-binary so they can't cancel her even if they tried, since it would backfire.
>>150183946Don't really love how she looks irl but this is a very cute design. Taking requests.
>>150196793requesting the angel girls from the mv revealing they all have very big ducks to plap her with
>>150183946Can Sugar really sign and what is up to now?
>>150197767i dunno she probably signs for a lot of fans at conventionsshe's making lars of the stars
>>150196322These are also very old. If we found out she was still doing those during SU’s production and to this day, the conversation would be different.That being said very rare people have been "blacklisted" for drawing porn, every artist has their barely disguised kinks.
>>150197121Well since you're the only one who asked then sure anon, I can make something for that.
>>150196793The black angel asking angrily if Rebecca based Garnet off her without credit
Why Rebecca doesn't have a musical career?
>>150198042I thought she is?
>>150184023>>150184418I don't really follow the cartoon scene but I liked Rebecca Sugar's comic stuff so I watched some of SU. It's funny that she has her rep for cutesy feel good stuff now when I remmeber her as the depressing comic person who did this and the Simpsons car accident comic.
>>150198402>Chubby>MarriedSomething not's adding up. Also got any more?
>>150198444well rebecca is chubby and marriedwhat's not adding up?
>>150198444anon have you just never seen a fat wife?also no, it's a one page comic. Buy you can find a few of her other comics out there
>>150183946Someone post that blog post from John K. where he says Sugar is the only modern/rising artist with talent.
>>150195127Do asexual people draw fictional characters fucking? I genuinely don’t know
>>150196793how about a back view of a flustered rebecca holding a towel that only covers her front
>>150198514Okay correction, I didn't mean they're both individually asexual, they strike me as asexual as in they're porbably not fucking.She's probably getting railed by butches with strap-ons though, sure.
>>150198542>She's probably getting railed by butches with strap-ons thoughI haven't even gotten the faintest indication that she'd have any interest in sex in any form with anyone. They both seem disinterested. She and Ian probably just jack it to cartoons in their own personal work spaces of their house, and then meet up afterwards in the kitchen to make pancakes.
>>150198629you don't just make mountains of pron of boys fucking each other in the ass and not have interest in sex in any form
>>150198629>I haven't even gotten the faintest indication that she'd have any interest in sex in any form with anyone.didn't she draw art of pearl and greg fucking and it made lesbians seethe
>>150198402Every artist was at one time a very angsty teenager, and I think every artist carries a part of that around with them for the rest of their lives. Not in the sense that they're necessarily arrested in development (although some are like that too), but the well of intense emotions you felt at that time is a great resource to tap. We tend to feel things extremely intensely at adolescence due to hormones triggering emotional responses we hadn't previously felt while simultaneously lacking the ability to compartmentalize and cope with those adult emotions yet. I think even the cutesiest of cutesy artists have the ability to go dark. That said, SU isn't all fun and games and I think glimmers of the same person who made this comic poke through every now and then. I wouldn't mind seeing what would happen if she made a series for adults at some point.
>>150198653She can have an interest in the idea of sex without wanting to actually have it. It's possible that drawing fictional male characters porking is her way of exploring sex without feeling any sort of threat of having it since the characters are both male and also not real. As mentioned, I could imagine her preferring masturbating in the safety of solitude over actually having sex with another person. >>150198697>didn't she draw art of pearl and greg fuckingIf she did, you'd think that would be the sort of thing that anons would constantly repost in every SU thread. I'm not saying that it doesn't exist, but if it did you'd think we wouldn't be questioning whether it existed or not. Artists have definitely done that so I'm obviously not questioning that art like that exists; I just haven't heard about anything from Sugar.
>>150196322Why do people say she drew this Finn + Jake drawing? That's not her art & it looks nothing like her style
>>150198844>if she didbut she did, search 'sugar pearl greg art' and it comes up immediately.
>>150199107I'm not going to have that in my search history, but at some point if someone happens to catbox it, I'll take a look. Still, if it's true, it's surprising that some schizo doesn't post that in every SU/Sugar thread.
>>150198464Chubby doesn't come to mind when I think of Rebecca Sugar. She seems kind of thin.
>>150199432she seems bigger in her recent vidsshe is getting kinda old, metabolism slowing down, it happens
>>150183946Are songs not supposed to rhyme?What the fuck is that chorus?She's just saying words.
>>150195902Learning just now it was part of a trilogy Sugar planned with her classmates was a trip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um9uc7pDdDs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFFC0BNDNOA
>>150199453she also doesn't strike me as a fitness buff. I think she'll age alright but as you get older simply going for walks after dinner is not going to cut it if you want to maintain a shape that resembles your youth. You can kind of skate through your 20s and most of your 30s, but as you approach 40 it's best to establish a real fitness routine or you're going to get frumpy.
>>150200727>Are songs not supposed to rhyme?They don't have to. Sometimes the rhymes are internal where the middle parts or middle of words rhyme. Nicki Minaj does this a lot (not the case here). In this case, eschewing the rhyming scheme is kind of a musical "surprise". They do this a decent amount in modern musicals where a rhyming pattern is established and then broken to make the section stand out a bit more. It can make things feel a bit less cliche, but is a trick that needs to be used sparingly.
>>150200952Well it sounds terrible
>>150183946angelic~
>>150201461Thanks for sharing, Corky. We'll keep that in mind.
>>150200888Eh depends on the personI know some old people who don't even walk and don't get fatIt's just genetics
>>150200822I love how obvious it was whenever Sugar drew for an episode specifically, even the ones where she's not credited as storyboard artist
>>150198493I'm curious what she thinks of the new Simpsons episodes
>>150203258when it comes to weight, genetics play a very small role. It has a lot more to do with environmental factors and habits. The elder people who don't walk and don't get fat are almost definitely eating a lot less than other people. A huge part of that is probably that they were raised eating less in general. Metabolic rates can be calculated and, as it turns out, there's not nearly as much variation as a lot of people think. When it comes to weight, that has more to do with how much you eat than how much you exercise. The classic aphorism is "you can't outrun a bad diet" or "six packs are made in the kitchen, not the gym". If the goal is to lose weight, calorie restriction is key. However, if the goal is to have good health as you age and not start falling to pieces as soon as you turn 40, regular exercise (plus a good diet) is important.
>>150183946Lol I predicted back when the movie came out that she'd be back by 2025, I imagine she's been working on this stuff since '22.
>>150204208Someone should put together a compilation video
>>150206267Would help kill some time before the Lars spinoff
>>150206598we've got YEARS to spend while waiting for the lars spin-off. it hasn't even been greenlit yet.
>>150206635This is Pen's "Adventure Time movie" all over again isn't it
>>150193128Who said they were all women?
>>150208486Repulsive.
>>150183946>Yes, I can see that's your angle here.>Don't you realize how many lives have been ruined thanks to Sugar?
I hope to learn about anything she's involved in so I can avoid it.
>>150208938>>150208994u mad?
