Wonder Trade:


Spoiler:
RD and Fluttershy's story reminds of that one episode of Ed, Edd, & Eddy where the Eds promised several trades in order to get a chicken egg to make their omelets. Both trades ended in a disaster, although we do get a heartwarming conclusion on the pegasus' side. Rarity and AJ get into yet another fight against each other, only this time assisting who should get the antique they value the most. Both didn't end up getting what they want, but they are thankful they still have each other. Pinkie Pie is best salesman, enough said. I'm still concerned about Twilight's library running out of space now that she decided not to trade her old books.

Here's an interesting article I found at EQD regarding a popular youtuber user reviewing the MLP blind bags (warning: the video in this article isn't for the faint of heart): http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/04/ashens-reviews-mlp-blindbag.html

I follow the Tumblr of one of the background animators for the show (like extreme background animators, where no one really knows of the work she does until she admits it) and she revealed these two ponies.

Spoiler:

They're Bioshock Infinite-inspired ponies! She's a fan of the games, so she put them in to the background when she worked on the scene.


I just thought that was awesome and wanted to point it out in case anyone else felt the same.

Well I've got two MLP-related articles today. One is good, and the other, not so much. The good article explains how bronies are helping Hasbro, and the bad article talks about an adult brony getting into serious trouble, which could potentially tarnish our community's reputation.

I need to find that tumblr. I'm really amazed as to how many pop culture, gaming, and life references are in that show. The amount is too high lmao.

Hi there. Can I join this club?
Username: MainecoonCatLover90
Favorite Pony: Fluttershy
Why Fluttershy is my favorite: Because she's such a sweet pony.
Welcome, deary! What would be your reasoning as to why you like Fluttershy, aside from being a sweet pony? Do you have a favorite moment of her in one of the episodes? Tell us! Fluttershy is a pretty cool pony too, as I share a trait of kindness to animals from her.

Sparity Episode:


Spoiler:
How Rarity handles her criticism in the beginning was hilarious. All that ice cream she eat to keep herself in check, I'm surprised that she hasn't gotten fat (unless it was low fat ice cream). The rest of this episode gave me this Evil Dead vibe, and bit of TF2, because of that spellbook Spike found from the old castle, minus the whole demon spawns. That book has really gotten Rarity mad with creativity. I understand Spike's reluctance to tell her the truth that what she's doing is wrong, because I usually get into a similar position myself whenever one of my online friends does something that could hurt them in the long-run, in terms of being honest, or when I try to get a crush's good side, in terms of being supportive. Seeing DJ-PON3 and Octavia in the same episode is definitely going to leave the fans raves of happiness.

Inspiration Manifestation:

Spoiler:
I think I love Rarity a whole lot more now. Her expressions were priceless and it's fantastic to get more Owlowiscious (...how do you spell that, omg) screentime. Spike too, of course, but the owl! I'd almost forgotten he existed.

Lots of laughter was had towards the end of the episode where Twilight comes in all messed up and angry from having to clean things up. Hehe, poor girl.

And oh! om nom ice cream = best part.

I got caught up with the two episodes on Saturday. Weeeeeeee. I actually liked both episodes, they were both laugh-out-loud funny.

Spoiler:
In "Trade Ya" the Mane 6 visit Rainbow Falls for a trade exchange. This episode puts a test to Rainbow Dash's loyalty element as she wanted the first copy of Daring Do & The Sapphire Stone book, having to trade SO MANY THINGS in order to get what she wanted, but that would also cost Fluttershy. I also didn't understand why Twilight had to trade away all of the books she never needed when she realized all the books she "didn't want" reminded her of her friends. That also puts a test in loyalty as well.

I'm just glad Pinkie Pie took the role of a sales person...she is p. good. xD


Spoiler:
In Inspiration Manifestation, I could relate to this all too well, especially since at the beginning of the semester this year I felt that my efforts in English class weren't as recognized as I wanted to be, especially since I worked hard on my things. However, as Janna mentioned, I am so glad Owlsowlicious got much more screentime, I was waiting for that to happen sometime. It became a lesson for Spike to LISTEN TO THE DAMN OWL because they do talk. xD


also, I'm surprised there wasn't much talk about this other than the past few spoilers...but anyone watched the trailer to Rainbow Rocks? Apparently it's going to debut in the fall of this year.

Finally, the Equestrian Games:


Spoiler:
And it turns out to be a Spike-centric episode; wow, two Spike episodes in a row. Looks like our favorite dragon sidekick is getting some more love, especially how this episode portrays him as a hero to the Crystal Empire for saving it from King Sombra, only to screw up his reputation via stage fright and perhaps the most cringeworthy national anthem you'll ever hear. He later redeems himself by saving the day again, though he still thinks it's no big deal. I can easily relate to his situation already, because I've been there before. It's too bad we never get to see the rest of the Equestrian Games, which is why this episode is getting mixed receptions from fans at EQD, but hey, at least Derpy got some screentime.

I meant to respond last night but I was way too tired. lol

& Welcome to the club, Cassafrass! So many Rainbow Dash fans out there. :) What else do you like about RD, and what do you like about Fluttershy?

Season 5 was already confirmed at the beginning of the season, I believe. Unless the one I reported it was a rumor at first and the writers FINALLY added more confirmation to it? All in all, I am purely excited for this! Will it have a November debut date like this current season? I hope so! It'd be a wonderful birthday present.

haven't watched last weekend's episode still...aaaaahhh

The Grande Season Finale:

Spoiler:
Twilight Sparkle is starting to become fully aware about her alicorn princess status not being a big deal throughout the whole season, and is feeling really disappointed about her role. Luckily, the other alicorn princesses are there to cheer her up in song form *cue fans screaming to hearing Luna sing for the first time*. Meanwhile, we have witness the return of Tirek, the original antagonist of the MLP franchise. He's manipulated the master troll, Discord, back to the dark side to help him gain back his powers, only to eventually backstab him and steal his powers away too. The battle between Twilight and Tirek was epic, as both were equally matched, thanks to the princesses giving their powers to Twilight to hide them from Tirek. While it was inevitable that the Rainbow Powers would defeat Tirek in the end, but at least he's still alive to escape another day, for the comics and fanfics of course. And Discord has been forgiven after his betrayal. With Twilight's library gone, she now has a new castle to replace it.


I wonder if this club will still be active as we wait for Season Five.

aaaaghh this one was great

Spoiler:
The action/fighting scenes in this episode were epic and not the kind of thing I expected from the show. Twilight put on quite a fight and it was very amusing watching her struggle to control the excess magic she received. It keeps surprising me in such good ways. (: What got me was Discord towards the end, though, since he finally admitted that he appreciates his friendship with the mane ponies and thyhthtsggs then he gave Celestia bouquet in the end. Discord x Celestia shippers can die happy, ehe.


@Murkmire: you definitely should; it keeps getting better and more adorable.

I really liked parts of this episode, especially the Dragon Ball-esque fight scene between Tirek and Twilight. Just like Janna, it definitely wasn't the kind of thing I was expecting to see in a show like this, but that made me enjoy it even more. I also love anytime Discord shows up, these episodes being no exception. Even though he had a moment of weakness in siding with Tirek, he showed that he truly does care for the ponies both early on with Twilight's journal, and once again when Tirek turned on it. Either that, or he had it planned all along, and he's just that good at playing the fool with Tirek (why should we expect anything less from the embodiment of chaos?).

Oh, and while only kind of from the episode, I had a good laugh when I saw this...

Spoiler:



I do kind of feel that I jumped on board this whole thing at the wrong time though- now we have to wait until sometime in 2015 for Season 5. Though, I guess we will be getting Rainbow Rocks between now and then.

I loved the Play Your Part Song. It's nice having the Princesses doing a musical number together.

For a minute, I thought Luna singing sounded like Rarity. Tabitha St. Germain should be singing as Rarity more often. Then I found out Kazumi Evans also voiced Luna singing. xD

Okay, after sitting down and watching the entire thing after 5mins of download, I have to say it was great. I can't explain how amazing the writers and Studio B team really did, no words can truly explain my feelings.

In all honestly, I think the 'return' of Tirek was great. I, for one, loved the G1 and seeing this was icing on top of the season finale cake called Season Four. The DBZ styled fight between Twilight and Tirek was amazing as well, and we can see how the 'Rainbow Rocks' thing it going to play a part from this finale.

So all in all, this episode did its job. It was a Twilight focused episode, it was a season finale and it had a very impressive villain role filled. While not perfect, it was as great as it could be (in my opinion).

This episode gets a 9.5/10.
