Well, the screaming monkeys are back. If you read my review of Friendshit Games you know that that means.

That was easily the worst season finale I've ever seen. (And no, not just MLP)

Between:

Starlight's entire backstory being one big temper tantrum of her friend leaving. (Seriously, did she not write him a letter? Go visit? Did SHE NOT GET INVITED TO GO TO CELESTIA'S SCHOOL FOR GIFTED UNICORNS?!)

It's been a long time since I did this list, but while my opinions of the princesses might not have changed (I still can't wrap my head around the premise of "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows" and Princess Cadence's actions just don't make sense to me, at least when Princess Celestia was withholding information from Twilight, it was because she knew Twilight needed to reach the conclusion on her own to save the day. The existence of the Tanterbus may make Princess Luna's lessons

My comments on the season finale; spoilers below.

Haven't updated this one in quite a while because my opinions on the CMC hadn't changed since the end of Season 6, until now that is. There's actually something positive I can say about Season 8, and that's that it was able to change my opinions on some of the CMC for the better. As a quick note, I'm only including official CMC members from the show, so obviously Diamond Tiara and Pipsqueak don't count despite sharing episodes with the CMC. And Lilly Ambermoon and her sister don't count either,

If you've been attentive, you've seen that I've never even once mentioned cutie marks. Since half the ponies wear armours, it could have just been plain laziness on my part, but it's actually a choice.

So let met explain why there is no cutie mark in The Mare in the Warp, Battle Report and probably most of my future Warpony 40K writings.

One final update for the CMC, even though it's not an overall ranking and more how they fare after what Season 9 gave us to work with. Like with my mane eight ranking, there's a journal on my DeviantArt account if you want to see the overall rankings, specifically this journal. Like always this list is purely the result of my personal opinion so please respect it.

“Seriously, that’s it?” Sid asked.

“What do you mean?” Starlight replied.

“That’s your emotional scarring backstory?! That’s your great tragedy?! Starlight, I had at least some of my morality and sanity literally taken away from me by a horrible accident with one of my inventions, and you’re telling me that you just lost one friend that caused you to act like this? Really? That’s all you got?”

I'm pretty sure this one is in the "drawings I used most time on"-category!
But this one was completely free-hand, it started out as a sketch of an eye!
What do you guys think? I know the light on Scootaloo and AB sucks, I might change that later. And also Scootaloo's eyes

I did some soul-searching, and I realize the problem with The Mane Attraction is Coloratura. She's got Princess Cadence Syndrome. Here, let me show you what I mean.

A Canterlot Wedding

Me: "Hey, who's this Princess Cadence supposed to be? Why should I care about her?"

Show: "She's an alicorn princess!"

Me: "Um, excuse you, there are only two alicorn princesses, I do not want another. Also, she's a bitch."

Show: "That's not really her, though!"

Here are some thoughts on the Season Five finale that I wrote while watching, including my immediate reactions as the episode was ongoing and a summary of my reaction to the episode as a whole.

Hello there. Another week another episode. This time we see the Crusaders building carts to ride in a derby. However, it doesn't go to plan when they ask their family (honorary and real) for help. This episode resonated quite a bit with me. When I was attending community college, I took an English class wherein we had to write a final paper about whatever we wanted as long as it was connected to one of the other papers we had written that quarter. I chose domestic service in the United States.

One of the most promising changes made in season 5 was the Cutie Mark Crusaders finally acquiring their cutie marks. Although the trio had already been shifting towards more varied episodes after two seasons of grating repetition, gaining these cutie marks not only put an end to their most significant character arcs, the exact nature of these marks also paved the way for new stories, as the trio consecutively gained cutie marks which showcased how they applied their passion for cutie marks into

So regarding the last post I figured I'd give you guys a little extra.

This is Sombra's cutie mark. The horns on it are supposed to be a little more circular rather than curved but I'm not much of an artist and basically threw this together in Paint.

According to MLP wiki

Cutie Marks are unique picture-like symbols located on the flanks or haunches, and it is also reminiscent of. The mark itself is positioned where livestock branding is usually performed. Cutie marks are often related to the personality, proclivity, or talent of the character.

The cutie marks are obtained when ponies discover a unique characteristic that sets themselves apart from others.

While I do enjoy the Cutie Remark, I do think the episode needed a better ending. So here's a thought:

When Twilight and Starlight land in the Crystal War timeline, King Sombra's forces actually manage to kidnap Starlight (he detected two very powerful magic users in the vicinity and became interested). He learns she's a time traveler and wants the spell. Starlight refuses to hoof it over, but Sombra keeps her contained and unable to cast. He's going to rip it from her, one way or another.
