Well that was neato. · 5:55pm Feb 16th, 2013
Rushed as all hell, oh my god shut up with the songs, and boy do these horses like forming impromptu parades, but not terrible. Better than what a lot of people were probably expecting, but worse than I'd hoped. I wonder how many butthurt fans are going to immolate themselves in protest of the ending? You weren't supposed to read that go away
My only issue with it, predictably, was the lack of Discord. At least have him floating around in the background or something. They said they had use for his magic for good, I wanna see what's up with that. Unless the purpose was just to make me happy, because it did, very much so, then... I lost track of where this sentence was going. Uh, rabble rabble rabble Discord rabble.
I like to imagine that Discord wanted to go, but Celestia said his dress was too revealing.
Well, that's it until the two-part premiere next season that will conclude this three parter.
Enjoy the wait
They always use songs to move the plot if they need to get a point across that would otherwise need to be represented by several events, but would also take too much time. I guess it's just because a song can be much more abstract in its progression of events. I still think Keep Calm and Flutter On could have been two whole episodes.
But anyways, it made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. The songs were appreciable, at least. If this is how they introduce Twilicorn, then I guess I'm more okay with it than before.
