Sorry, Talon, that's easily one of the worst episodes.

Only because it was so horribly disappointing.

And the weird out of character moments.

I'm going to have to go with Talon, Best Night Ever was a great episode, and the only weird out of character moments were from
Spoiler: show
Rarity and Fluttershy. I don't really even consider them weird; Rarity had a moment of maturity with "AFRAID TO GET DIRTY!?" and Fluttershy's classic "You're... going to LOVE ME!" was proof that deep down she has the capacity to be more than just shy and gets flustered just like anyone else.


Or maybe I'm over analyzing a children's cartoon again.

Best Night Ever gave us two pretty darn good songs, but other than that it was a total write-off to me. The end even felt a bit like Rambo-
Spoiler: show
Celestia had sent them into a situation because she expected them to fail
and it probably wouldn'tve bugged me so much but it was the season finale. No ponies for months and the lasting images of all of the 6 were of them having a miserable time at what they were all expecting to be the best night ever- Fluttershy in particular was absolutely jarring and I hated it (though on subsequent watches it does have some humorous parts- Rarity's slipper destruction was hilarious).

Spoilering because Raichu will likely get up to this ep in the next day or two.

No, "jarring" is hardly the word I would use to describe that. "3-dimensional," "character-building," and "absolutely epic" would be the words of choice. I'm not going to cram a "LOVE IT!" pill down your throat, but ...

Spoiler: show
... how can you call it jarring? When you'd already seen her do something incredibly similar in Episode 17? Or was that jarring too? Why is a character losing their cool not allowed in MuyoLand? Why is someone who is ordinarily soft-spoken not allowed to lose her cool? Do you even know any people like Fluttershy IRL? I kinda question it if you're going to say what amounts to "Man, that was so jarring. I feel scarred. I am sad that that is canon. I am sad that that writer has ruined Fluttershy."

For once I agree with Talon. Especially for a girl's cartoon, it was an awesome episode. Instead of being all
Spoiler: show
Prince Blueblood realises how awesome Rarity is awww and changes aww and Fluttershy totally gets the animals without needing to do anything aww
it cemented the fact that these were three-dimensional characters.

Also,

"Run"
was awesome.

I saw that too. Trixie, NMM, Pon-3 and Zecora? Not to mention show accurate 'tia?

I must say, I'm impressed. Trixie better come with a robe and wizard hat.

Yes I do know somebody like Fluttershy IRL, and I know her pretty well too, thank you for asking! And I don't have a problem in general with characters losing their cool- Pinkie's freakout was both heartbreaking and greatly beneficial to her character, while Fluttershy's was just jarringly out of character, considering we'd seen her incredibly frustrated and had difficulties with animals before with nothing even remotely resembling the psychotic break that BNE showed. Even in telling off the Dragon in Dragonshy, she was asserting herself (but with some compassion) but didn't freak out with that level of rage that she lashed out at the nervous animals with. That's like Twilight Sparkle screaming at Princess Celestia for not paying enough attention to her. Fluttershy is also apt to blame herself for everything: for "arguing", for entering a shop that says "open", etc. In my opinion it was a terrible characterization of Fluttershy, you're allowed to like it if you want, but I found it incredibly jarring and entirely out of character.

I don't understand the love for Luna prior to Luna Eclipsed... she had all of 30 seconds of screen time and one line "I'm so sorry!"

That being said... became a full on New Lunar Republic convert after S2E4. Have you accepted Luna as your personal lord and savior?


Also not a Rarity fan (as previously mentioned), but Tabitha St. Germain is a fucking VA goddess.

I don't think I shared this, but at any rate, I will now. One of the most heartbreaking pieces of fanart I've ever seen for anything ever... I first saw this 3 months ago, and I won't lie when someone may have been cutting onions near me (YES I KNOW IT'S FUCKING MY LITTLE PONY FANART)

Spoiler: show

At first glance, it’s just a very nice, detailed piece of art depicting an elderly Twilight riding through Ponyville on Spike’s wing, seemingly on parade. Spike and Celestia are tearing up as she appears to be in her final days, this is somewhat depressing.

But then you see the apple next to her, the butterfly (and blue feather - thanks cellophane-rose) above her, the balloon above the butterfly, and a cloth with Rarity’s cutie mark hanging out of the satchel on Spike’s tail, and it hits you all at once. Twilight, last of the elemental guardians, leaning against Spike for support, who after all these years still hasn’t stopped clinging to her books wherever she goes, manages to crack one last smile, knowing she will soon see her friends again.

The title of the piece - “One Last Parade”

Never thought once in my whole life I’d be left horribly saddened over My Little Pony fanart, but here we are. All of my sad, just take it.

Ive seen first 5 of season 2.
Luna eppy was epic. it was fun hearing Tabitha changing the vocals there
loved the Rarity and Sweetie Belle eppy. interesting looking parents they have

was nice hearing John de Lancie as Discord in the first 2 eppys

also, the love for luna came from seeing Muyo's avatar and learning about her VA
and I liked that eppy too, cause she was saved from her dark side

I didn't cry, or get depressed about it. I see only love, solidarity of friendship, and beauty. To me it's not sad, just beautiful.

Beauty has a harder time making me cry than sadness.
