Heh... see what I did there? With the title? Y'know... *cough* nevermind...
Now, before we get started...
SPOILERS!!!
Let me just start out by commenting on just how freaking bad-ass this episode was. Am I right? For the first time in cannon-pony Hasbronian history, Equestria is at all-out war. (if you don't understand the significance of this... please refer to the blatantly obvious picture below).
That was what really hit me. (So did RD's new mane, but in a much more... ummmm... uhhh... let's just move on, shall we? 
)
Also... the long-awaited return of Chrysalis... perhaps my second favorite bad-girl ever! That was pretty cool. Discord was fun. Nightmare Moon was one act too old. Tirek was overkill. Sombra was... well... he was... did anyone else thing his animation was a bit jerky? Cuz it looked a bit jerky... not quite fluent. Shadows should be fluent. I think. I watched this while I was concussed.
Also. Zechora. War paint. Zebra go all kamikaze on yo' ass. Awesome. 
But that ending. Oh my great glorious cookies that ending. How many of you watched that ending with a serious sense of deja vu? *cough cough* Pony world- *cough* needed their own- *hack cough* version- *cough cough* of Sunset Shimmer *cough*
In all seriousness though. That ending, if you think about it, was actually some pretty heavy stuff for a little girl's show. (Granted, a little girls show with a raging war, but still). You are given this scenario of everything those ponies know and love is gone, with no easy way to fix it. A deep, moral choice to be made... 
...gives me shivers every time I think about it. NO! NOT THOSE KINDS OF SHIVERS, Mr. ASTRAL CLOUD QUILL-WING!
Anyways, those are just my personal thoughts and opinions on the episode. Much better note on ending the series than with a make-shift Lady Gaga randomly popping up out of nowhere...

You might want to take the rose-colored glasses off.
Let's see.
Op unicorn that's stronger than an alicorn: Check.
Writers wrote themselves into a corner that's only solved by an eleventh hour redemption where side character has a change of heart on the verge of wining that goes against her own characterization: Check.
Really cool shit that's all non-canon because it's all time travel related and didn't happen: Check.
Completely ignores pre-established canon because magic: Check.
Side character we didn't know that much about throwing huge hissyfit and destroyed word, not punished in the slightest: Check.
Characters overly accepting of side character and invites her to be their friend simply because of her OPness: Check.
Yep, it's a really, really, really bad fanfiction story. Completely ignores prior continuity and changes everything simply because the writers what it to happen. Op unicorn that's op for the sake of being op. Main character shown up simply because. Op unicorn's backstory is nothing more than the biggest temper tantrum who never grew the fuck up from the age of 10. No explanation for how the fuck she's more powerful than a god damn alicorn. Main characters not only OVERLY accepting of her at the end, but FLAT OUT ADMIT they're only going to be her friend because of her phenomenal god-like power. (Great lesson to teach kids here btw, you can be friends with a princess too, but only if you're really really really really really special.)
Scale of one to ten? Two. Worst two parter in the show and worse than some one part episodes. (crusader for the lost mark)
Sunset Shimmer 2.0.... WHY? JUST WHY? I guess on the plus side this mean we'll never see Sunset return to Equestria. I mean why would they when they have her carbon copy already canon and part of their group.
But come the fuck on, Applejack FLAT OUT SAYS they're only going to be her friend to keep an eye on her. She's psychopathic and was going to willingly and KNOWINGLY destroy the word for her own vendetta. THIS is a good addition to the cast? THIS? Are you shitting me?
Again, take the rose-colored glasses off.
In fact, now that I think about it, I'm wondering if this is just part of her plan. She saw the side damage her first plan caused, so now she went along with this so she could destroy their friendship from the inside. Hell, that'd make more sense than what this turd gave us.
This is so bad it needs it's own trope... Hmm... I'm going to co with captainpudgemuffon's name. It shall be dubbed the: Let's befriend this tumor in hopes it doesn't give us cancer trope.
I wasn't even thinking about those kinds of shivers until you said something. But now that you mention it...

AKA liking something while acknowledging it's faults, but to turn a blind eye to everything it does wrong is delusional.
3584983 Did it? Did it really?
3585035 Well then...
Ah'm delusional

Well, good luck with that then. Without being able to spot your faults, you have no hope of growth or change. You can't get better at writing without being able to spot when something goes wrong.
Your way leads to stagnation. And we all know where that goes.
3585161 I thank you for your continued support with my delusional mind.
