can we talk about how disturbing is that some of the past stuff actually lead to multiple cranial fractures?

No wonder Steven is visibly tortured whenever struck with any anti-gem weaponry, it's his gem powers that are holding his broken flesh self together, take that away and he's just a kid who just got hit by a truck.

Some animes even intentionally evoke that someone is manipulating their powers to literally hold together their spintered bones and torn muscles just long enough to finish the fight.
