Later, the display acquired a Emmy nomination in 2018 for the episode "Jungle Moon" centered all-around Stevonnie, a non-binary character. She also noted that non-binary creators these as herself have added problems, likely by means of a environment were non-binary persons are dehumanized, and hoped that "seen queer written content and several queer creators indicates no one has to come to feel isolated" in the ways that she did. She also stated that apart from threats and backlash from homophobic viewers, she feared that her identity and material in the present could direct to its cancellation if she spoke about it brazenly, noting that support for the display was "typically pretty capable and hurtful". Sugar reported that being at the forefront of LGBTQ representation meant that further than what they were making there was "very very little queer written content". Sugar explained the series as "reverse escapism": the idea that fantasy characters would turn into intrigued in actual lifestyle and would want to participate in it. Steven personifies the "appreciate affair involving fantasy and reality". Whitbrook characterised the collection as getting "about like-all kinds of enjoy", like non-classic kinds such as the motherly and pleasant bond concerning Steven and the Gems, and Garnet as the "physical embodiment of a lesbian romance".
