Opal is formed underwater, like Pearls, and rich in silicon, like Amethysts
cramer floro that’s really cool!
cramer floro I DIDNT know that!
Rebecca really does her gem research
bryan diaz varela um.. have u seen any of the missions the greg went on
cramer floro Yes true but fire opals are formed in lava. (Or at least that’s what I’ve heard from the internet) also my gemstone is opal UwU
In my opinion, I think that Opal is so forgetful because she is mostly only focused on keeping her fusion stable. If the slightest things slips out of her hand (literally and metaphorically) you loses that balance and unfuses
Thats me
If that's true, then I relate to Opal since I'm always trying to keep myself stable emotionally.
@@Noah29431 at this point, me too
This also would explain why she is so quiet
I don't this is the cause tho. Opal is just too carefree...
If that was the cause, it would indicate repressed internal conflicts. Which is a problem in the nature of Fusion itself, and it counter intuitive against the behaviour of how peaceful and rather calm Opal is.
Opal looks like an EXTREMELY down to earth yoga instructor
Yeah ikr I was thinking that as well
Since pearl has sand manipulation and amethyst has fire manipulation, wouldn’t it be cool if opal had glass manipulation?
U mean powers the crew forgot about
Does Garnet have any power of nature?
Darpth Dethyn water
OH MY G
@@area52ron No, electricity.
It's probably due to Aimee Mann's singing, but she seems to project this wonderful warmth.
m3rrys0ngstr3ss agreed!
It's more like Aimee Mann's voice. She projects these patented good vibes her voice. You should tune into some of her podcasts.
Opal is one of my all time favorite gem fusions in Steven Universe.
The fact that u didn't type garnet amazes me
@@Fish_plz Actually Garnet is one of my favorites too, in fact i actually like all the gem fusions in general, but since the video is about Opal it felt appropriate to say she was one of my all time favorites.
Opal is my favorite fusion
Same aside from Rainbow 1.0 and Sunstone !!
The Commenter Dragon same!
Also! If you watch the animated shorts that were with dove, in one of the shorts opal is constantly asking what her next line was. (Following that she is forgetful) :>
I love how Steven Universe treats Gem’s extra body parts as completely functional and with purpose. They don’t look out of place when Opal uses her four arms to shoot an arrow.
I just realized that the 3 main crystal gems (Amethyst, Garnet, and Pearl) each represent a different position of time. Pearl represents the past with her always reminiscing about her time with Rose, Amethyst represents the present with her living in the present, and Garnet represents the future with her future vision.
Didn't even think of that?!
THAT'S SO COOL
Also, i noticed their outfits kinda match the time period. Pearl wears sorta old-timey clothes, Amethyst wears modern clothes, and Garnet wears futuristic clothes.
I know its 5 days later since the initial upload so this probably won't get noticed but a fun fact about Opal is that it breaks down if it is not maintained with a certain level of salt contact (which is why people encourage people to rub their opal from the salt that is on their hands) this is also symbolic of our fusion Opal as she needs a certain amount of cooperation from Amethyst and Pearl in order to maintain herself
pearl is also salty
*[All i wanna do... is turn myself into... a giant woman...]*
Lapidot
Fuse with Lapis!
Fuse with Amethyst I beg you don’t let my ship fall
@Ite Vt Slot scREE NOOO
We All do
Steven Universe is an essay made up of metaphors in the shape of a story.
Thesis: "If every porkchop was perfect: we wouldn't have hot dogs."
Conclusion: "I don't need you to respect me I respect me, I don't need you to love I love me but I want you to you can know you can know me is you change your mind.
If you change your mind.
If you change your mind.
If you change your mind.
Change your mind."
*" i don't need you to respect me they say, i don't need you to love me they say"*
*_-Steven universe future 2020_*
It’s a damn shame that during the series Pearl and Amethyst didn’t get along as well and had a hard time cooperating without Garnet. Makes you think how many times we could’ve seen Opal throughout the show. Like when they fused like nothing in front of the diamonds. Their relationship grew so much as the series ended. I’m glad we got to see her again in the movie. And in future but she shape shifted.
The actors of Steg and Opal have a band! Explains the voice sync
Edit: WOW TYSM FOR LIKES THE MOST I EVER GOT BEFORE WAS 5
They do?
@@entimoreng Yep, it's called "The Both"
@@Project32HMT32 ok
Hoih2
This was stated in the video itself,
@@HellaFuckingKawaii but i always scroll throught the commrnts during the vid
You all realize that Pearl and Amethyst hasn’t argued for sometime
*I’m always thinking of that...*
bryan diaz varela no
The hindu divinity she is ressemibling of would be Parvati, the charitative form of the consort of Siva, rather than Kali, the terrifying aspect of her. Shinato also makes sense, since it is based on Shinatobe, a heavenly deity (like, the place we see Opal first is in "Heaven Mountain") from Japan, and is summoned by ritual in the game. Another inspirational divinity would be Artemis, the greek goddess of the moon and hunt (since Opal has its white pallor, and she is also armed with a bow and arrows). Excellent video, she's ever been one of my top faves from the show
I love opal gemstones and I was always told growing up that unless it was your birthstone(or a 14th anniversary gift) you couldn't wear one as it would invite death into the family (so I'm glad my birthday is I October 😁)
The October scorpios (me) and libras (my BFF)
Opal barely appears in the series 😂 and it shows bc they showed quite literally every clip/appearance of her 😂
Well she did get a song in the movie
@@jammy9597 justice for an injustice just cancels out
I like how since Pearl and Amethyst need to be at "Peace" with each other to be Opal it causes Opal to be one of the most calmest fusion we know
since even a little bit being out of touch would just unfuse her
Opal is one of my all time favorite fusions from Steven Universe! She is so cool! I wish we could see her more often!
Haley Mitchell the fact that you didn't say garnet astonishes me
Katkit Oh shot! You’re right but I love Garnet too! She is my favorite fusion and couple!
@@Fish_plz this video is about opal not garnet
Do Sardonyx next
I second that
Waddle Dee welcome to the harem- oops I mean i wecome that suggestion
Goood Evening everybody!
Can I join the ha- i I mean can I join the suggestion
I'LL SAY THIS EVERY TIME I WATCH ONE OF THESE: IF GEMSTONES ARE SUPPOSED TO HELP WITH EMOTIONAL BALANCE, WHY DO I CRY WHENEVER I THINK ABOUT STEVEN UNIVERSE
Because you're too emotional and the stone can't contain it.
Amethsyt and opal 1:07 had me gone for a minute
she's one of the most underrated Fusion ever.
The funny thing about opal is that it’s the most fragile of all the gemstones
My personal favorite fusion. Involving two of the crystal gems.
Do Bluebird Azurite next please.
Yeah, a fusion of two of the characters with lesser lore throughout the series would be so interesting to watch...
@@meralmaray2795 lol
malachite would be a much cooler video than bluebird 🤢
I’d love to see more of Opal in the show, she’s beautiful 💙
If anybody in the comments is reading list if you want to try and make your own jem you should go to this game called gemstone maker
I never even thought about the connections between Opal and Shinato. And you described ritual summoninf pretty well Kris
Nino Mitchell thank you!!!
The reason Pearl and Amethyst can't stay fused for long is because if Opal existed too long, her beutiful voice would serenade everyone and cause a love-pocolypse
If you say “standard set of gem abilities” one more time, I will go insane!
Steven has a specific type.
I always found it funny how garnet is bigger then most gems as a fusion between ruby and sapphire but then gets dwarfed by most the two gem fusions.
I love how mysterious Opal is
We need an episode where Steven and Opal fuse and they are voiced by an Aussie because Opal is Australias national gem and Mary Poppins was written by another Aussie
Opal is my birthstone and also happens to be my favorite fusion next to Garnet and Rainbow Quartz
Reason why I love opal
1) she adorable
2) she my birthstone
What is a birthstone?
@@Didyouknowthatiexist it’s a type of gemstone that is assigned with a month
For example mine, I was born in October so opal is my birthstone
7:17-7:20
I've heard that too, but it's not bad if you buy and Opal for yourself ONLY if your birthday is in October.
Opal is one of my favorite fusions I love her hair and all her powers
Can't wait to see Obsidian explained.
It was fun to see Opal singing back some of Steven's song.
Opal: (chuckles) all you wanna do, is see turn into.
She’s probably my fav fusion.
I think pearl, just like sugilite and sardonyx loves to show off to Steven and definitely gives off big sister vibes in a way! She live in the moment with Steven and have fun with him, do all the stuff he like like riding roller coasters etc… like amethyst often does but is careful and focused like pearl! The perfect stablely unstable fusion!
I love this series u do so well making it

Thanks Nerdwire for making this video - Opal is my favorite fusion!!! :D
My dnd character is called opal and her color scheme is similar to opals (from Steven universe) and her hair is the same too but the ponytail is a bit smaller
Do a video about Hessonite or Prism from Steven universe Light
I just wanna ad that in France, close to where I live, there's a place named "The opal cost", supposedly because the sand is close to the gem color
I've been binge watching these
no one:
people giving presents on somebody's 14th wedding anniversary: here have a death stone
Opal is one of my fave fusions from steven :)
I was impatient about this video *-*
I may be fairly late, but would you rather spend a day with Amethyst, Pearl, or both of them as Opal (none of them is an option, too) and what would you do?
Hope we can soon get a video on gems and mental disorders comparisons
Kellie The Star Child I’ve actually done that in past videos! Huge focus on it with Spinel!
Kris Carr Will we possibly get more gems in the future?
Anyone notice opal got new forms
I really wanna see sardonyx next
Is it weird that I take "see you space cowboy" as a personal message. Yeah I thought so too 🤣😂
Opal had more Lakshmi vibes than Kali. Sugilite, is faaaar more Kali energy!
Pearl: you’re just too much!!!
Sugilite: Maybe you’re just too little!!
I love all of your videos
dont over sell this to me cris..
i love it so much
Honestly, Opal is my favorite fusion.
As a Yugioh expert I can tell there are fusion cards it was really a missed opportunity for steven universe’s creators that they pronounce made a fusion based of a ritual card interview of a fusion card
At about 1:00 they say Steven trys to make amaypheyst and opal fuse lol
all i wanna do is see you make an *opal vid *The giant woman
“Ill never stop making videos about these space rocks”
1 year later
*stops*
Oooooh! My birthday is on October 5. Cool!
the mistake in "pearl and opal" makes me wonder what would happen if two pearls fused with amythest
Thats my birthstone finnaly you made it
Opal my fav fusion
Can you PLEASE do Sugilite next?
"She's not really in this episode. Do we still need to pay her? Fair enough"
All I wanna see is turn into a giant woman a giant woman all I wanna see is turn into a giant woman a giant woman
Isn't it "all i wanna do is see you turn into a giant woman" instead ?
Uhhh i think you mean " you" instead of "is"?
*all I wanna do is see you turn into a giant woman
Wooo🥳🥳🥳 this was amazing!
magentha 123 thank you 🥰
Have you ever heard of Fire Opal? I think it would've been made by a Jasper and Carnelian
Or maybe yellow pearl and jasper or carnelian
Opal is my favorite fusion as well Rainbow Quartz
Libras are diplomatic
My sister walks in kitchen: how do I look
Me : you look horrible
U forgot Slovakia we have opal mines, the biggest in the EU but because of hard rocks it is easier to mine them in other countries
You said " while on a mission to the sky spire steven encourages amethyst and opal to fuse" I am confused
Sardonyx next?
I want to know what every fuse in that includes Ruby and sapphire missing either ruby, or sapphire
The Great Opal rant with Producer Brett!
Meg McCune I was dying 🤣
*[you'll be broken for this!!!....]*
I love Opal she is totally my #1 favorite fusion.
Sardonix and Lemon-Jade should have videos!
Cluster arrows, that's new
Tbh, do gems that don’t fuse for love get more arms?
Can you please cover sugilite?♥️
4:10 "gianter women!"
MY FAVORITE FUSION!!!!
These vids are great
5:18 that doesn’t look much like a symbol of peace
Chris: Opal has blue skin
Me: *lilaaaac*
Opal is so pretty (the gem and the character)
Who else tought that opal had purple skin?
What colour is her skin then?
i love u opal.... forever my queen
All right cool now I know my months birthstone
0:08 BWOMP BWOMP
