Review of No Second Prances · 12:51am May 1st, 2016
So far, No Second Prances is my favorite episode of season six. The humor was well done, the emotional moments were well done, and Starlight, Twilight, and Trixie all got good character development. Plus we got to see Cranky's overly hairy nose. What more could you want?
One of my favorite things about this episode is seeing Starlight trying and failing to make new friends, often because of her incredible talent at magic. I've speculated that one of the main reasons Starlight got so obsessed with "equality" was that her power made it difficult to make friends, hence she regretted her special talent that made her "unequal" to other ponies. This episode doesn't confirm that, but it makes it seem more likely.
I'm also glad that Celestia is showing up much more often than in season five, although it would've been nice if she got a line in this episode.
Overall, I'd rank the episode 8.8 out of 10.
