Twilight's Seven: EPISODE 200: Short Thoughts · 4:16pm Apr 20th, 2019
First of all, holy shit, 200 episodes! What an accomplishment.
Now to the episode:
Yep, my favorite one so far. Everything worked to perfection. This was a clusterfuck that somehow managed to pull itself together by the end and still have the feel-good moments that it needed. What a crazy series of events; completely unexpected, then expected, then unexpected! Definitely one of the best episodes IMO. Love the dynamic of everyone trying to work together. I know people will bitch and complain that this didn't "service the fans", but let's get something out of the way: that wasn't the point. The point was a thank you to the main voice actors, so much so that they wrote the episode too. For a varying group of ideas; it managed to make a cohesive story. Great episode. Loved it.
SPOILERS:
Spike fans rejoice! The genius plans devised by him and Luna were amazing! The subtlety of the sibling rivalry among others was a nice touch. Fluttershy and Zephyr as well as Luna and Celestia. That final flashback was a pure work of genius.
Oh, hello Maud, glad to see that you made it in here.
Oh. I just realized that the title was a reference to the Ocean's films. Cool.
