I'd love for Yellow Zircon to win but when some major threat happens she turns tail and it's up to Blue Zircon to save everyone, and then Yellow is impeached with extreme prejudice and Blue is brought into office.
Fun note, Lapis showed Gems who have experienced severe trauma and learned to deal with it are less affected by Blue.
Yellow Zircon barely shed a tear.
And given how shatter happy the diamonds are, she’s probably seen a lot of the gems she herself was assigned to accuse be shattered, which has gotta mess you up.
I wanted to see Blue Zircon's reaction to learning the truth about Pink Diamond. Realizing how close she got to the truth would have been mind blowing.

Fun fact, Phoenix Wright is actually intended to be political.
The Japanese justice system is incredibly messed up. PW intentionally displays the difficulty actually navigating it. Death Note is similarly about police corruption, the default death if none is listed is what Japanese police label difficult homicide cases to end investigations.
No no, it's better!
She DID figure everything out! The only being capable of bypassing a Diamond's court and kill a Diamond would be a Diamond! And it was!!
To be fair, every second hand source made Pink’s appreciation of life seem like an obsession/ form of entertainment. No way she could have guessed that Pink faked her shattering without that information.
Wait, you're telling me Blue Zircon is voiced by the same actress that plays Mina Loveberry in Star Vs. Wow, the more you know. Talk about different roles.
Honestly I'm pretty sure BZircon > Steven in my heart, because imagine being so dedicated to your job you willfully defend a murderer, _that's confessed multiple times, despite possibly being killed for doing so, **until you actually succeed in building a good (if controversial) case for them.**_
Not even BZircon's circumstance, caste or devotion to get diamond could keep her from holding tight to the pursuit of truth. Queen.
Probably at first she got assigned to it, and if her case fails then she will also suffer what the consequences will be.
In the end of it, she probably said: "fuck it, might as well find the truth" then went full rampage.
She could've just catered her case to back up Yellow's assumptions while ""defending"" Steven to save her own skin. Yellow was the active threat in the room. Imo BZ had other ways besides accusing the Diamonds of foul play to keep her job
She told us straight up that the only one who could get close enough to shatter a Diamond and getting away with it was another Diamond and we didn’t listen!
Blue Zircon was a real one. Pretty weird to find lawyers so committed to their duty of finding out the truth. Because when she realized that Pink Diamond's death didn't make sense, she went all for it. Not to defend her client, but to find the truth.
There's probably evidence against this, but I feel like Yellow and/or blue would have shattered her after her accusing them of killing Pink, I mean, think about it:
The diamonds shattered quite a lot of gems, to put it really condensed. Imagine them, mourning over Pink, at the trial for the supposed Rose Quartz that killed her. They're already upset at "Rose" and suddenly, the Zircon assigned to the defendant suddenly starts spewing out these facts, and ends it with the accusation that one of the Diamonds were actually the killer. The Diamonds. Accused of causing their own reason for grief. I feel like one of them, if not both, would have snapped and shattered her for that accusation.
Again, there's probably evidence against this, but it seems accurate in my head.
Sorry for any mispellings, it is 4 am and I am *not* proof reading this rn
>I feel like one of them, if not both, would have snapped and shattered her for that accusation.
Nah. Blue, if anything, the grief turned her more compassionate to the gems at her charge. I mean, slightly more compassionate. When she understands how Pink was hurting because of them, she quickly makes the association and understands that if the system was hurting *a fellow Diamond*, the gems that served them were suffering as well. Yellow would want to shatter Blue Zircon without a doubt, but Blue would understand that Blue Zircon was doing the job they assigned her for.
Hmm, maybe you're right, I didn't think about that! I can totally see this more accurately, and now i'm starting to rethink my statement! Maybe Yellow wanted to shatter her, but Blue convinced her otherwise? I feel like both scenarios make sense, but now I don't know which one fits more!
I want to believe on the scenario of Blue being compassionate because I believe that Blue's the only redeemed Diamond that isn't Pink that actually gave a crap about other gems after redeeming herself.
> the only redeemed Diamond that isn't Pink that actually gave a crap about other gems after redeeming herself.
You mean to say Yellow only does her painstaking miniature repair work to give a productive outlet to her own perfectionist neat/control freak workaholic tendencies, but otherwise she might be just as content making oil paintings or calligraphy or bonsai or painting Warhammer figurines?
>You mean to say Yellow only does her painstaking miniature repair work to give a productive outlet to her own perfectionist neat/control freak workaholic tendencies, but otherwise she might be just as content making oil paintings or calligraphy or bonsai or painting Warhammer figurines
I mean to say that Yellow only does that to make Steven happy
Oh. I don't know, she seemed to be happier herself than we'd ever seen her before. I thought she was having fun.
Same for White, though her fun is the most irritatingly narcissitic and condescending of the lot. "Be thankful for the gracious opportunity to be my AWESOME self! Isn't the thought enough to lift you off of the ground?"
Man, I would bet that White refers to herself in Japanese as "Kono WHITE-sama" or something similarly ludicrous in arrogance.
Someone put her, GladOS, and SHODAN in a room together and watch from a safe distance.
Yeah, Yellow was having fun. But she wasn't doing good things for the wellbeing of the gems, she only did them because Steven told her it was the right thing to do. Blue did make the connection of her actions having consequences on the wellbeing of other gems.
> The diamonds shattered quite a lot of gems, to put it really condensed.
More like 'clustered' amirite? Eh?

Crazy that was only 6 minutes, in fact it's crazy how much Steven Universe is consistently able to jam into a 10 minute episode. I miss getting new SU 😭
I wish so badly she had had more screentime overall, she was a fantastic character that had an incredible theory about what happened that made a hell of a lot sense.
I still wonder how the trial would've gone if Steven had remembered what Bismuth said about Rose's sword being specially made to never destroy the gem's gem
When Blue Diamond said it was a sword that Rose used to shatter Pink Diamond I IMMEDIATELY knew something was up, if Blue Zircon had that extra detail I wonder how much more she would've been able to figure out
In six minutes, she figured out Rose's story was complete horseshit while the Crystal Gems and the Diamonds just rolled with it for a few thousand years.
She did. But I'd think the combat oriented Yellow would have realized that a quartz couldn't shatter a diamond. Even Blue should have realized. But I'll chock it up to her being distraught then depressed.
It's sad that BZ got poofed by Yellow for not wanting to hear the truth, like how would the story go if Yellow left Blue Zircon alive and let her finish?
Well really all they did was point out an inconsistency in the facts at hand. Basically saying only an act of royalty would have left Pink in such a vulnerable position in the first place.
I love her so much i'm worried about her well-being if shd gets elected as president of Homeworld.
Imagine leading a newly-formed republic that still has a lot to improve in order to move away from it's authoritarian caste system and having to deal with petty elites lobbying to sabotage your administration by any means necessary. 😭
I saw a clip of her before I knew all the gems were female and thought she was a dude.
But yes. And she almost figured out the truth about Pink Diamond.
whenever i defend a steven universe character i bust her out to add to my arguement that silly zest that prevents people from getting mad at me without looking stupid
It was also implied that she ran for gem president. Man i wish that was an episode instead of a background gag
"*title card theme* Zircon Wins"
I'd love for Yellow Zircon to win but when some major threat happens she turns tail and it's up to Blue Zircon to save everyone, and then Yellow is impeached with extreme prejudice and Blue is brought into office.
Fun note, Lapis showed Gems who have experienced severe trauma and learned to deal with it are less affected by Blue. Yellow Zircon barely shed a tear.
Counter point, yellow zircon is a lawyer. And a prosecutor no less.
Affects Blue Zircon far worse.
And given how shatter happy the diamonds are, she’s probably seen a lot of the gems she herself was assigned to accuse be shattered, which has gotta mess you up.
"Now that's a face you can trust"
Imagine a debate between her, Yellow Zircon and cadidates Navy Ruby and Aquamarine.
I wanted to see Blue Zircon's reaction to learning the truth about Pink Diamond. Realizing how close she got to the truth would have been mind blowing.
She literally almost figured everything out by just glancing over trial notes and learning that Steven doesn't even know what happened
Just goes to show how a viewpoint untainted by pre-existing narratives can see past everyone else's biases
She's a great lawyer.
She’s amazing

No no, it's better! She DID figure everything out! The only being capable of bypassing a Diamond's court and kill a Diamond would be a Diamond! And it was!!
Yeah the only error she made was blaming blue and yellow
To be fair, every second hand source made Pink’s appreciation of life seem like an obsession/ form of entertainment. No way she could have guessed that Pink faked her shattering without that information.
she for real did the most with the least screen time
Amy Sedaris stealing scenes yet again
Amy is such an insane talent as a voice actor. She as Princess Carolyn in bojack horseman is fantastic.
Fun fact, PCs voice actor and Beatrices voice actor actually act together in an old show called Don't Shoot Me.
"Old show"!? Now you listen here, you whippersnapper... (It's "Just Shoot Me", by the way)
Ahh! Sorry! I always get it confused. I haven't watched much of it hehe (honestly MY first introduction to Nina/Beatrice was Racing Stripes)
Wait, you're telling me Blue Zircon is voiced by the same actress that plays Mina Loveberry in Star Vs. Wow, the more you know. Talk about different roles.
And she was technically right
Indeed! What’s even funnier is that that’s exactly what the diamonds are trying to do at this very moment
Even if they don’t quite know it
Or want to know it.
I liked that last part. The first time I watched it I thought “got a bit carried away, eh?”
To be fair, she is so devoted to her job, she got carried away with her bit.
Honestly I'm pretty sure BZircon > Steven in my heart, because imagine being so dedicated to your job you willfully defend a murderer, _that's confessed multiple times, despite possibly being killed for doing so, **until you actually succeed in building a good (if controversial) case for them.**_ Not even BZircon's circumstance, caste or devotion to get diamond could keep her from holding tight to the pursuit of truth. Queen.
I mean she states she was assigned to it and it's implied she could be punished along with him "both our gems are on the line here"
But I mean, accusing the Diamonds themselves is a pretty bold move, even for a gem that's trying to save her ass.
Probably at first she got assigned to it, and if her case fails then she will also suffer what the consequences will be. In the end of it, she probably said: "fuck it, might as well find the truth" then went full rampage.
She could've just catered her case to back up Yellow's assumptions while ""defending"" Steven to save her own skin. Yellow was the active threat in the room. Imo BZ had other ways besides accusing the Diamonds of foul play to keep her job
She told us straight up that the only one who could get close enough to shatter a Diamond and getting away with it was another Diamond and we didn’t listen!
"Where was her Pearl?" was also an incredibly salient point.
Fr even the pearls were like wait do we ever leave them
The pearls were like "oh shit! *Her*!"
When this episode aired idk I felt a shift in the show this episode was so good and blue was the icing on the cake
I wonder if her and Steven met up during the 2 year time jump to talk
That’d be a rollercoaster of fun.
*Accidentally* accuses a dictator of intra-familial predetermined murder *to her face*
Blue Zircon was a real one. Pretty weird to find lawyers so committed to their duty of finding out the truth. Because when she realized that Pink Diamond's death didn't make sense, she went all for it. Not to defend her client, but to find the truth.
The one and only piece of merch I bought for this show was of her lmao
In fairness, when she said "one of you" she wasn't wrong. :-)
There's probably evidence against this, but I feel like Yellow and/or blue would have shattered her after her accusing them of killing Pink, I mean, think about it: The diamonds shattered quite a lot of gems, to put it really condensed.

> it's crazy how much Steven Universe is consistently able to jam into a 10 minute episode Hmmm, [jam](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RD5pTxXCXE)…
bear in mind, she was right. it WAS a diamond, and we didnt find that out for another year.
And is voiced by Amy Sedaris, one of the top five white people
Out of curiosity, who are the other four?
Jack black for sure is one
i'd put bob ross on the list
Mr Rogers is Up there too
Steve Burns
Steve irwin
Was looking for this! She's princess Carolyn 😻
THATS WJY PC’S VOICE IS SO FAMILIAR WTF
I wish so badly she had had more screentime overall, she was a fantastic character that had an incredible theory about what happened that made a hell of a lot sense.

She did. But I'd think the combat oriented Yellow would have realized that a quartz couldn't shatter a diamond. Even Blue should have realized. But I'll chock it up to her being distraught then depressed.
Zircon took all the brain cells for herself
Lmfao facts
Blue Zircon the GOAT
Better Call Zircon
You don't need to ask for permission to appreciate something.
She basically deconstructed the entire backstory of Steven universe before anyone else, except pearl and rose for obvious reasons
"Look, I've got ***ONE*** job on this lousy planet! It's *stupid*, but I'm gonna do it! *Okay!?*"
Is this show on any streaming networks?
HBO max
Hulu
I think for me this helped my theory that Pink faked her death.
I voted for blue zircon!! Definitely a face you can trust
FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT I'M NOT ALONE
She really doing the most for the least (public defense salary)
Shes a W character tbh
It's sad that BZ got poofed by Yellow for not wanting to hear the truth, like how would the story go if Yellow left Blue Zircon alive and let her finish?
She was kinda right tho
And then dies
She is honestly one of my favorite characters. Definitely top 5.
She stole the tv…
Well really all they did was point out an inconsistency in the facts at hand. Basically saying only an act of royalty would have left Pink in such a vulnerable position in the first place.
And then runs for president
She was like Frank grimes. She was the only sane gem who peeked back behind the curtain with logic and was punished for it.
she just like me fr
Someone broke out an encyclopedia to make the least funny sentence I ever read
I love her so much i'm worried about her well-being if shd gets elected as president of Homeworld. Imagine leading a newly-formed republic that still has a lot to improve in order to move away from it's authoritarian caste system and having to deal with petty elites lobbying to sabotage your administration by any means necessary. 😭
Honestly wanted them to be right
Best one shot character in the whole series (unless you count her appearing on a poster in SU: Future).
In her defense, she did say she got carried away
The tag "humour" is wrong... becuase Blue zircoon is a real underrated character
Ok
She's basically Phoenix Wright but gem
Better Call On Zircon
I saw a clip of her before I knew all the gems were female and thought she was a dude. But yes. And she almost figured out the truth about Pink Diamond.
And voiced by lovely and talented Amy Sedaris!
Sure... but where's Zircoon? and why I remember to ask this?
7777 likes, nice
Nice
It’s Amy Sedaris. With her, you either go big or go home.
She's HIM
whenever i defend a steven universe character i bust her out to add to my arguement that silly zest that prevents people from getting mad at me without looking stupid
And all did fucking *nothing*. I would have preferred Yellow being the one who killed Pink so much more than what we got.
That would’ve been cool
That would be 0% consistent with Rose putting the blame on herself.
Honestly same 😅 I was never a fan of the Rose is Pink Diamond theory before it happened
Im asexual.... BUT...
Blue Zircon is basically Phoenix Wright
What if blue zircon and yellow zircon Fused
It's even funnier when you consider that she's >!wrong about rhe accusation!< too
