My Review of Stranger Than Fanfiction (Preview: WOW) · 4:54pm Jul 30th, 2016
What a great 22 minutes. A hilarious new character who is alternately annoying/ useful, plenty of meta-humour with lots of shout-outs to the fandom and best of all... lots of DEADPAN SNARKING!! This is going straight to the top of my list of favourite S6 episodes. Rating: ****
Definitely one of the best of Season 6, and probably top ten or top fifteen material.
While it was great, and fun too. I had a big issue with the continuity problems in it. There were larger than normal holes in the plot that just left me wondering if the writers even watch the show they make.
4122284 Hmm... great impression of Quibble you've got goin' on there. Are you available for conventions?
4122289 LOL no no, Like I said it was really funny. The big problems I had was two main things.
1)RD has been captured by Calavera before, He should have known her.
2)RD has been on the COVER of one of the Daring-Do books. Shouldn't just about every fanpony be all over her because of that?
4122305 They probably just think Rainbow Dash is a bad OC.
4122305 I dunno... sounds like there are two perfectly logical explanations for your misgivings. Read them down below...
1. The competition in the Calavera cos-playing stakes was so hot that year, even Rainbow Dash got confused by the likeness of the contestants.
2. Perhaps the attendees simply thought that Rainbow Dash was just another visitor to the fair in costume. I personally think she should be more famous as one of the six saviours of Equestria, even at a Daring-Do convention, but that's just me..
There ya go. Now you can love the episode as much as I, without any reservations or pretensions. You're welcome.
Best episode of the season so far! No offense to my fellow bronies, but I'm not crazy about S6 so far. They've had a few good episodes, but nothing that really stuck out.
Stranger than Fan Fiction, however, now this is a winner. If you haven't seen it yet, DO IT NOW. It has something for all of us: adventure, Rainbow Dash, a new male character that I feel is about to get a lot of fan time, Daring Do, comedy (COUGH - Not that one!)...fan fiction...hello?
I'm gonna watch it again!
