We return to the ongoing adventures of Trailblazer, deep in the thick of things on the distant island of Midgard.
After more than half a year of G5-engendered delays, we are finally able to return to Moonstuck, just in time for the final boss fight. Let’s throw down.
And so, finally, I can try to get this episode reviewed. Let’s hope the new laptop’s motherboard doesn’t also go the way of the Apple parents.
No, it’s not about a Jabberwock made of Legos. That would be a Hearthstone card blog. The first Tell Your Tale special is about the extreme lengths and depths Izzy will go to to overcome a creative block. Let’s take a look.
Well, that’s what the Discovery Family site’s calling it. Though to my surprise, they've manage to contain themselves enough to stop posting the videos there after putting up a quarter of them over the course of a week. That means I only have enough material for one of these before returning to the comics next week with a long-overdue look at the 2013 annual now that I actually have a copy. (Thanks again, princeps!)
If you’re surprised to see this, you clearly didn’t read all of Friday’s blog post, nor did you check the calendar at the time. For shame. No, I’m not quitting Magic or ponies any time soon, though the former did mean that I missed the TV broadcast of the latter, which means I can do a quasi-live reaction as I watch.
I have commencement tomorrow, and I go to Rutgers. Obama’s the commencement speaker, so I have no idea how early I’ll need to leave ahead of time. As such, this one’s going up a day early. Ahem:
Starlight Glimmer apparently has phasing, which makes sense given her dabbling in chronomancy. This week, she’s phased in, and we’re dipping into the stock plots for a bit of out-of-seasonal cheer.
This week, ponies young and old have lessons to learn, delivered by some very unusual teachers.
Between hearing things and Pinkie Pie, this week’s theme appears to be insanity. Let’s see how nuts it gets.

Well, that was fun. The macro-plot progresses, best pony returns, and griffins continue to be a thing.
(That said, I have seen a very good point regarding Butch Deadlift Big McLargeHuge Stan Johnson Bulk Biceps: Why is somepony who qualified for the Wonderbolts Academy having so much trouble now? The answer, of course, is the demands of the plot and dramatic tension, but in that case, the story shouldn't explicitly reference the episode with which it conflicts.)
Greetings from Brooklyn! Visiting my sister for the weekend, so there may be some Group Precipitation delays. However, I made sure to get the card blog ready over the week, and she and her wife are much later risers than I am.
Going to need to make this relatively quick, and apparently out of chronological order. (And yes, this was quick. I only got my replacement laptop about four hours ago. Love and care go into these blogs.) In any case, it’s time for perhaps the most metareferential episode the show’s ever given us.
This week, there’s a mystery afoot. Ahoof? Something along those lines. Point is, it’s off to the big city.
Others have mentioned this, but there’s something important to note about “Dance Magic.” It was originally intended as a prequel to Legend of Everfree, which would make vastly more sense in terms of the timeline. Doylistically, they switched gears mid-production (hence the spring dance after summer camp,) but Watsonianly? I’m going with my standard policy for bizarre temporal phenomena in pony: I’m blaming Starlight Glimmer.
Season 8 premiers next week, which means we must again bid farewell to the comics for a time. So, let’s see if they can go out on a high note as…
We open with Jay Fosgitt.
Welp. Let’s hope that’s not an omen.
Ugh, completely forgot this week was going to have a double feature. Maybe I should’ve just gone with the Australian release…
In any case, precedent says the protocol here is two episodes, one blog. Tiime for some serious quality time with the Student Six.
A shovel solves a lot of problems, but it can’t do much against a generation gap the size of the Grand Canyon.
This week, Fluttershy takes her self-confidence too far in the other direction, and she doesn’t even need a minotaur to do it.
