"Off Colors" is the third episode of the fifth season of the American animated television series Steven Universe, which premiered on May 29, 2017 on Cartoon Network.
Continuing immediately after "The Trial", Steven Universe (Zach Callison) and Lars Barriga (Matthew Moy) escape the Diamonds via the abandoned lower area of Homeworld.
A Gem called the Rutile Twins (Ashly Burch), who has two conjoined bodies from the waist up, helps save them.
Club writer Eric Thurm argued it was one of the slower episodes of the "Wanted" special, but praised the handling of Lars' death.
Lauding its graphic portrayal and emotional weight, he wrote that "It's stunning that the Steven Universe team got away with depicting this in so much detail—what's the last death you can remember in a cartoon or movie that was this explicit?"
In the same review, he praised the episode's unexpected revelation of Rose Quartz's resurrection abilities and the show's unpredictability, stating that "for the first time in a while, there's no way to know what's going to happen on Steven Universe—and it's thrilling.
