Well, the first part is just supposed to lead in to the presumably epic second part.

Royal Wedding is my favorite episode of the entire series, it wouldn't be fair to compare it to that.

EDIT: Fuck you, Rainbow Dash. Worst pony ever.

Thanks Hub for spoiling major plot points for later season episodes in your commercials

Indeed. Was a pretty good episode, but I'll be honest, the worst of the three openers IMO.

My problem -

Spoiler: show
They played up this villain from the very first five minutes like he was the worst villain Equestria had ever seen, made of pure evil and hatred - and did NOTHING with him. At all. He basically sat around until the last five minutes to just fly in and say "Surprise!" and IMMEDIATELY get blown to pieces.

Nightmare Moon, Discord, and Chrysalis all had lengthy roles to play in their respective episodes.

I also didn't much care for the entire thing was just "be a diversion in the form of a fair while Twilight does the cool adventure part". I understand WHY she had to do it alone, but it just wasn't as interesting as it could have been.




BUT THAT'S OK I'M HAPPY WITH NEW PONIES

Spoiler from the ad
Spoiler: show
How many Pinkie Pies is enough?




Spoiler for the ep.
Spoiler: show
I liked the ep quite a bit, though it did seem to be setting things up more for the rest of the season than just being a self-contained two parter intro like Discord's eps. We didn't really get to learn anything about the villain this time, which was a shame after having three pretty excellent villains in the previous multiparters. I'm excited for the rest of the season, I just wish it wasn't so short.

Also, LUUUUNAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I can't believe they still make that shit. I'm surprised some kid hasn't died from playing with it and they haven't ceased production or something in the twenty years it's been around.

What product from 20 years ago are they going to change nothing about and market to us next week? Better blocks (With glow in the dark better blocks if you call now)? Zzand? Floam? Stretch Armstrong? The possibilities are endless!

There were a couple commercials for Floam, actually.

I know right? Next thing you know they'll reboot My Little fuckin' Pony or something. As if anyone in the 80's and 90's even cared about that...

In case anyone missed it, it will be uploaded here whenever it's done, including the Floam and GAKGAKGAKGAKGAKGAK commercials.

Wow, I can't believe they're marketing Floam AND Gak again.

EDIT: Just watched the episode. I really liked it! Not sure if it was better than the wedding, but it was a really great episode. Love the atmosphere of it.

It irked me that Twilight was more upset that she didn't recover the heart than happy for Spike. I dunno, it was weird since, ultimately, she acted selflessly for the greater good, but after King Somber was defeated, she was more caught up in the fact that she "failed" her test. Fuck, I feel like what I typed does not convey what I'm feeling but I'm not very eloquent.

Yeah, that's a good point. She should have been like "Holy shit I just guided and single handedly stopped motherfuckin' KING SOMBRA", but instead she was just crying that she instructed Spike to do it and didn't do it herself. Which was a bit ridiculous, but she's still best pone.

Working dat way up to Alicorn status

All's well than ends well.

Spoiler: show
Twilight passes the test and will almost certainly become an alicorn or something and people like me will lose their shit...plot twists are still borrowed from Harry Potter(Seriously, even a kid who's read Prisoner of Azkaban saw that coming)...Rainbow Dash remains best pony. All's well that ends well.

I never analyze things I watch because I'm not smart enough, but I saw this and it made me appreciate the episode a lot more. I mean, I think it was supposed to be kind of obvious (since his name is Somber), but I didn't get it until I saw that.

Sombra, not Somber. Megan McCarthy herself pointed that out, but I do like that theory.

Man, I haven't even gotten around to watching the new episodes yet. My "weekends" are just too Celestiadamn short

Woah, T-Dos, Dash is my least favorite of the Mane 6, but what brought that comment on?

No, I'm not looking at the spoilers
