An entire episode dedicated to Twilight and Shining?

BRING IT.:pinkiehappy:

I literally can’t wait.

I await an episode of pure fluff. Especially since this is episode 200. Episode 100 was literally titled 'Slice of Life,' sooooo... yeah.

I really want to hope that it's Shining playing against Twilight in Ogres and Oubliettes since that was his thing in the comics, but they already did that with Spike, Discord, and Big Mac, so I doubt it.

Twilight definitely wants to ride Shining Armor, if you know what I mean.

Can you please not because I have not I repeat not watched the season 9 😒😒😒

I was told there would be pony.

I haven't seen the episode yet. I'll just say it's ironic. When Shining Armor was first introduced, he had an impossibly ideal relationship with Twilight Sparkle 'We never had a single fight', etc, (never mind she never so much as mentioned him until the writers wrote him into existence), but now that we're in the final season, (I had hoped we'd be done with New Playset junk now that they can't be canceled twice), they retcon this NOW (?!) to them having flaws and teasings.

And it being episode 200, the last milestone the series will have (for the better, it's way past time to lay this zombie to rest), it's just odd they chose this for the plot.

According to Jim Miller on Twitter, this episode "is a thank you to the 5 voice actresses who brought us this far".[2]

Now everything makes sense.

Then it might be smart to... well, not click on these site news posts.

5046858
I don't know if I would consider friendly competition a 'fight,' but if there's teasing involved, yeah, that might be pushing it for a 'perfect sibling relationship.'

Well that rivalry answers a few questions about Twilight amazing skills

5046869
That they aren't so amazing after all?

Starlight's thinking in the cold open, I'm glad I'm an only child.

5046871
No they are. They are just obtain through hard work and talent.

Sisterly tension, I love it

Okay, this is a little different. I like where this is going.

This episode was written by the voicestaff.

That's a first.

Season 2: "We never had a single fight."
Season 9: "We competed over everything."

Holy dang! So much defensive!

5046877
I think the fight meant the negative kind not the competitive kind

5046877
Just wait til the end for the ultimate contradiction.

5046873
How do you figure?

This is exactly (well, not exactly) what a few friends of mine do for a living—they're paid to try and break into companies' online security systems so they know what they need to reinforce.

I really like this. Not only is it competitive for the siblings, but it's for the good of Equestria's capital. I want to see where this goes.

Especially if we see Crazy Rarity again. :rainbowlaugh:

5046880
Reading books, being Celestia student, spending time with her friends, competing with Armor, Cutie Mark, desire to please Celestial, and desire to be prepared.

5046865
Probably stop being a smart ass

Suddenly Zephyr 0-0

I was right that this episode would have Twilight doing literally nothing. Really selling her as a leader, staff.

5046886
he was strutting more than a peacock. lol God i love this episode.

5046883
Sorry, but it's not so much being a smartass as much as using logic. You don't need to click into here if you don't want to know what's going on.

5046879
When you pick nits, any contradiction is important.

5046888
Twilight does nothing cause it's something shiny expects. So it is complete understandable

5046858
I never bought that "never had a single fight" line. In a show about talking magical Unicorns, THAT'S what broke my suspension of disbelief.

PLOT TWIST!!!

though fluff, this was amazing fluff.

5046898
Luna brushing her geese evily

They never accounted for betrayal...I really hope it’s not foreshadowing.

5046892
Still, totally selling that leader-and-not-a-figurehead thing. Because "nothing" is not what figureheads do. At all.

Nice for the little siblings to finally get their moments to shine together. Spike and Luna are such a great pair.

"You thought it was a Twilight and Shining Armor episode but no, it was me, a Spike episode!" :moustache:

Spike is a goddamn criminal mastermind, and it’s awesome.

5046903
Has Twilight not thank her friends for helping in her times of need?

5046907
> Canterlot was an inside job

OK...best episode of Season 9 so far, and probably one of the best episodes ever.

Everything about it was perfect! The strengthening of Canterlot's Security, the banter, Luna's backstabbing, Spike...seriously, if that wasn't the show's way of saying "Spike isn't worthless" I don't know what is.

10/10

5046901
kinda reminds me of that unikitty episode lol.

Also, I wonder where Flash Magnus was during all this.

So, does anyone else think it's the mother of all coincidences that this episode aired right on the heels of Joker from Persona 5 becoming playable in Smash Ultimate? No? Just me? Okay. :duck:

This episode was a treat. Humor was on-point, the twist was unexpected yet believable, and it's nice to see some sibling rivalry between Twilie and the BBBFF. My only complaint is that I wish they played this during the commercial breaks on the stream:

5046918
good question, maybe he was asked to set this one out.
