As you may well know, I always get giddy when my stories and the show's canon align. And with this latest episode, it has happened again (albeit in a roundabout way). But this time, it's more than just "oh, I wrote a thing, and it turns out that thing is canon in the show. Neat." This goes up to a whole other level.

Well, here we are again. An episode made of so much win that I can't say just one thing about it. Discord hasn't been around for a while (and I'll get to my theories on where he's been once my cover artist has finished my request), and he's made a most welcome return in this episode. Anyway, I'm just gonna gush about this ep for a bit and talk about what I found interesting.

I've gone on record saying that Josh Haber has not been my favorite writer this season. The only thing I got out of Castle Mane-ia is that Rarity apparently thinks castles are sentient, and Simple Ways was just too easy to riff on, making me think that the episode was worse than it actually was. Sadly, these problems have not seemed to alleviate themselves in this episode.

So, after Tender Taps, the CMC have finally gotten themselves a new client. Why aren't there more episodes like this one? I'm more interested in seeing the Crusaders tackle Cutie Mark problems than building go-carts or selling prank cookies.

I find myself once again unable to talk about just one thing with this episode. I've been anticipating this ever since Games Ponies Play, and it did not disappoint. So, let's go through the list:
1. Back when Magic Duel came out, I made a joke about making a drinking game out of the number of callbacks in the episode. If you tried that with this episode, you'd probably end up plastered halfway through.

Well, I didn't think we'd have one of these episodes this early in the season, but here we are. I've got a lot to say about this one, and it's best not to waste any time. Let's get right to it, shall we?
Okay, so Green and I watched the most recent MLP episode. It was nice. Yes, Starlight memeface; nice to see the CMCs as always; oh and also... this thing. There's something... unsettling about this pony.

Oooooh boy, from the thumbnail I can tell which episode this is. One of those early releases that had half of the Internet put into a state, as it seems to be the much awaited Royal Sisters Shenanigans episode all been desiring these past years.
I managed to keep myself in the dark about this one beyond glimpses of gifs showing the sisters being all cute together. So time to get the context.
Let’s do this!
I think this’ll be the last early release episode for today, still plenty left but yeah. Anyone can get overload, both me watching and how much you guys can care to read my reaction posts right after each other.
Again, rushing in on these to avoid spoilers slipping through, I have no clue what this one gonna be about. Just how I like it.
So let’s do this!
A bit late, been a busy weekend and I just got home now to try catch up on the latest episode. Been hard to avoid spoilers on this one, although what I’ve seen made me curious at least.
Now let’s just sit back and give it a watch myself and see where it’s really going.
So this was a fun episode. I have some things to say.
Spoilers. Of course. And still no pictures. That ish's hard, yo.
In no particular order,
Now we know for sure that Pinkie is at least a twin. Judging by them all being around the same size in the flashback last time, it's even more likely that they're quadruplets. What an interesting thing for Pinkie Pie to be and never bring up. Maybe it's just really common for ponies (or maybe just for earth ponies?).
Alright! I can assume from the title that this must be about the Student Six but with a focus on Yona, possibly.
Let’s see where this be going, shall we?
Oh Silverstream.
Return of Ocellus’ pony OC form!
My dearest and oldest friend, Tyrie from dA, has a crazy scary timing. He noted me with access to the latest episode JUST as I was starting the posting process for this week’s episode reaction before I would go hunting for the new episode. Scary.
Anyways. Let’s get on with the show and see what this week’s episode holds for us!
Dang, more and more spoilers are slipping out all over from the early releases outside the US. And here I sit still watching by American schedule, while being a foreigner, because of the sources I rely on. Oh well, I can only keep on doing my best to avoid spoilers as usual.
Let’s see what this week’s episode got in store for us.
