The Dubbing Database

Steven Universe is the Turkish dub of the show of the same name. Produced in Istanbul at Ak'la Kara Stüdyoları, the dub premiered on Cartoon Network in Türkiye on June 2, 2014. After the season 3 episode "Steven Floats" aired on June 21, 2016, no new episodes would premiere. After October 10, 2016, reruns of the show were pulled entirely, and the dub would not be continued further.

The first season of the dub was made available to stream on Netflix, excluding the episode "Jailbreak", despite it being dubbed. The episodes on the service feature censorship through the edits of the UK and EMEA feeds, and not the additional edits of the Turkish feed, which are written below. It was removed from the service on April 14, 2020.

Eventually, the fourth and fifth seasons would be dubbed entirely uncensored in 2024, and were released on Netflix on April 30, 2024. These seasons feature an almost entirely different cast than the dub of the first three seasons, despite being dubbed by the same studio. As Netflix only hosts the last two seasons of the series, the unaired episodes of season 3 remain unreleased.

A Turkish dub of the film would later premiere on September 19, 2021 on Sinema TV, but with a different voice cast.

Censorship[]

In addition to using the EMEA master edits also used in other European countries, the broadcast of Steven Universe on Cartoon Network Turkey was edited for content even further. Here is a list of edits that were applied to the CN Turkey broadcast of Steven Universe:

  • In "Laser Light Cannon", Garnet's line, "Stop that!" along with Pearl's line, "It's no use!" as Amethyst forces Steven onto the light cannon were cut. These scenes were uncut on Netflix.
  • In "Frybo", the shot where Steven's butt is visible was cut. It was uncut on Netflix.
  • In "Island Adventure":
    • The scene where Sadie and Lars hug during the song "Be Wherever You Are" was shortened, cutting the scene where Lars pushes Steven out of the hug.
    • The entire kissing scene between Lars and Sadie was cut.
    • Steven's line, "use your fish-murdering skills!" was cut.
    • All of the scenes above were uncut on Netflix.
  • In "Jail Break", Sapphire kissing Ruby before their fusion dance was cut. This was uncut on Netflix.
  • In "Cry for Help":
    • The scene when Garnet and Pearl are close to each other in the fusion dance was cut.
    • The scene where Pearl and Garnet's faces are close to each other after unfusing for the first time was shortened.
    • Before fusing for the second time, Garnet's line, "I hope you're ready" and Pearl's line, "You know I am." was cut.
    • When Sardonyx unfuses for the second time, the scene when Pearl and Garnet's faces were close to each other was cut, and a part of the song was also cut due to this.
  • In "Keystone Motel":
    • Ruby's line, "I am an eternal flame, baby!" was changed to simply become "I am an eternal flame!".
    • Ruby and Sapphire making up was severely cut down. Everything from after Ruby says, "I know" right up to Steven covering his eyes was cut.
  • In "Onion Friend", the entire scene where Onion shows Steven his birth tape was cut (a span of 33 seconds).
  • In "Sadie's Song":
    • The close-up of Sadie's butt when Sadie is singing along to the radio was cut. This also cuts the line, "they're hypnotized by my way of walking".
    • The entire scene where Steven performs "Haven't You Noticed (I'm a Star)" at Beach-a-Palooza in Sadie's clothes was removed. This is a cut of 43 seconds.
  • In "Catch and Release":
    • Peridot's line, "Stop talking!" was cut for unknown reasons.
    • Peridot's line, "That's right you DIRT BOMBS!" was cut.
  • In "The Answer", the song "Something Entirely New" was cut down, removing the part where Ruby and Sapphire hum the chorus to "Stronger Than You" together, except for the ending where they fuse again. About 25 seconds were cut.
  • In "Super Watermelon Island", the part where Alexandrite says "you two should spend some time apart", before shooting the arrow to Malachite was cut.

The season 2 episode "We Need to Talk", as well as the season 3 episode "Hit the Diamond" were left unaired, likely due to romantic themes.

The show itself would be end up being removed entirely from Cartoon Network Turkey's schedule in October 2016 after airing the episode "Steven Floats", alongside the Arabic-dubbed broadcast of Steven Universe on Cartoon Network Arabic and Cartoon Network MENA in the Arab world. The exact reason remains unknown.

  • After 8 years break, Gülnur Badakal, Seda Özelsoy, Ceren Gedikali, Esra Baycan, Taylan Atlıhan, Işıl Kılıç, Mert Aydın, Yasemin Varyemişçi, Fatih Özacun, Elif Acehan, Bedia Ener, Tugay Erverdi, Ali Hocaoğlu, Fatih Özkul, Gökhan Akçakara and Berna Başer reprised their roles for the last 2 seasons of the series.
  • In the first three seasons, almost all songs, with the exceptions of "Cookie Cat", "Lapis Lazuli", "Stronger Than You" and some parts of "Peace and Love on the Planet Earth", were not dubbed and left intact from the original English version. However, in the fourth and fifth seasons, almost all of the songs were dubbed, with the exception of "That Distant Shore".
    • A 2nd version of the theme song, dubbed by Harun Can and Ali Hekimoğlu , was used in some episodes of seasons 4 and 5.
