My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale 🦄 S1 E62 | Nightmare Market | Halloween (my commentary) · 11:33am Oct 20th, 2023
We start with chemical warfare. Everypony is happy to finally leave the cruel life behind.
"Get your cauldrons! You too can build a gas chamber at your home."
Zipp thought happy thoughts to herself, When I become the queen, I know what I'll do when somepony disagrees with me.
Hitch's head looks big even without the distorting mirror.
Alphabettle is trying to groom Misty. Either that or I'm missing some canon from the 3D show.
Dad? Apparently, Alphabittle Blossomforth loves it when she calls him daddy.
And there are breezes, and everypony except for me seems to be familiar with them...
Everypony is impressed by the balls of poison.
Oh, never mind. It's just poisonous glitter.
And they're foals again. We're still in the first season and they're already recycling episodes?
Sparky seems to be immune to it.
Misty became too young even for Alphabiddle.
Misty tries to run away from the predator, but he won't have it.
He doesn't want to capture just Misty anymore but all the foals. Is his basement even big enough for all of them?
Sunny eats an apple from Thundercats?
And explodes into a million pieces.
Pipp turns into a bat pony. She can't fly though because she's still fat.
Izzy becomes Starswirl the Bearded. Just gayer.
Alphabittle starts pimping foals around.
And crystals apparently make you smaller. Why didn't Spike in G4 ever turn microscopic, given how many crystals he ate?
Man, this episode is fetish galore. So many fanfictions to write...
"I am too old for this!" is something Alphabettle should have said to himself before the crime, not after.
The Mane 5 become superheroes with incredible powers. Opaline comments, "They're weak."
Cutiemarks? What about the dragon flame and rainbow beam or the magical lantern? Make up your mind, Opaline.
Jade, Taco? New minions? They can't be worse than Misty was. She ruined everything.
Alphabittle has trouble transporting all the foals to his basement, but that's nothing some chloroform couldn't fix.
Turns out that foals don't like chloroform.
Actually, the problem was human cups that were made with fingers in mind. And since foals only had hooves, they couldn't operate tea cups.
Opaline doesn't want tea either because there is no straw in it.
Turns out that Opaline is actually Starlight Glimmer. She's doing what she knows best: stealing cutie marks.
Didn't make your mark had Posey Blossom had her cutie mark stolen?
and no Starlight Glimmer is not Princess Opaline... it is 100% impossible.... due to the story of the Make Your Mark series.... Starlight Glimmer would have to be super old in g4 to begin with... and if this is true then by all means g4 is ruined... and g5 killed it.
G5 is getting to be a shame for this. Well, it's now known that g5 has just killed g4... due to lore and other stuff.
5751416 I used to resent G4 for every episode being static with no growth or influence on other episodes.
But seeing how super confusing G5 is, I think I didn't give G4 enough credit.
The Starlight Glimmer comment was mostly because they're recycling ideas from G4. We've seen it all before.
...I wonder if anyone else picked up that Morning Mood remix.
No wonder there's no foals at the Night Market, that place is dangerous and stupid. All the product they have are open on display and the ponies in it (Alphabittle) seem to have forgotten that they can use magic. Look writers, I know magic makes up some BS logic that can allow it to do anything, but you can make up anti-magic BS as well. State it for the audience and follow through with it at least through the full episode. The entire series would be the best choice, but no amount of magic is going to save you from screwing up somewhere.
Oh that poor voice actress. Reduced to improvising baby impressions. Well at least her tone sounds believable.
Onyx: HeEeYyY, wHaT aRe YoU dOiNg To My CuTiE mArK?
Unlike some performances where I can see them rolling their eyes as they say the line.
Opaline: You're next, Sunny.
Or biting a chair's leg to create a corny sendoff.
I'm going to take Youtube's captions as the definitive name we both misheard. It seems to work with the theme better than 'Taco'.
Their names are Jade and Charcoal.
5751780 I sometimes think writers of Tell Your Tale put less time into their work than I do in my fanfictions.
Regardless of what their names are, I find it funny how fast and easily Misty got replaced.
