Usually don't bother doing a blog post about episodes because I don't have much to say, but given the storyline significance of the episode and the fact it is the 5th anniversary I guess it makes sense.
In case the title didn't clue you in then warning, spoilers ahead.
Note her erect wings!
I know I'm sick in the head special, but I can't be the only one who saw this, right? Right‽
First we have the 100 episode special tomorrow. Then we have the return of Steven Universe on Monday with an epic Steven Bomb. My body can't handle all this hype.
My body isn't ready.
ANNOUNCEMENT: THERE HAS BEEN A TRAILER FOR EQUESTRIA GIRLS 3: FRIENDSHIP GAMES. PLEASE ENTER THIS BLOG AT YOUR OWN RISK OF SPOILERS.
OMMN
Spoilers below the break!
Following the tradition of my more recent reviews, I'll just cut to the chase. I really liked this episode.
Quite a fun episode, the script was fantastically written. I got quite a lot of good laughs from this one, although the moral lesson had definitely stepped out of the spotlight.
However making a short episode review isn't why I've made this post. More or less, it's has to do with the ending, mainly concerning about Spike, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie and their RPG class picks.

I kid you not, this is the best description I've heard.
I have mentioned it before, but I am saying now very clearly.
I will not be continuing the Shard series. I know some of you are disappointed and I'm sorry.
If someone else wants to take some of the ideas in it or continue it in their own way, go ahead but give me notice when it first gets published.
However, since I'm not continuing it, I am going to share what was planned and going to happen. There are going to be a lot of spoilers since this is what I had in mind but never written.
To start with, I’m impressed. Not a minute in and I found myself overwhelmed with such a sense of pride I almost couldn’t stop the tears from flowing. I was honestly shocked, that a character I’d hated in the beginning had grown so much that I was actually proud of her.
After two weeks, I've finally managed to get off my butt and do a review. Also, this post is hella long, so enter at your own risk.
Well, the next few days will bring into being one of the last steps on my road to recovery from the events of this past summer. I'll be moving out of the temporary vacation home I've spent the winter in and be moving to a permanent or at least long-term living situation.
According to this video, the spoilers in in the video from my previous blog apparently are true
Well, I've been a busy boi. In the past week, I have written a whopping 16,000 words on both the main and side story, though mostly the side story. I've worked on two chapters for that, with a brand new one completed at 11k words. Though at that length, there's a good chance I'm going to break it in two, and then turn what it describes into a three-chapter arc. That would give me no less than five finished side story chapters, and put us on track for a Memorial Day weekend (late May) publish
Titled “Upper Crusted” and sitting at 7.5k words long, it’s with prereaders now. The chapter will go live when they’re done with it and I’ve completed my usual pair of editing passes, most likely tomorrow. As promised, the chapter centers around Midnight’s punishment of Upper Crust but starts with the well-earned ending of the Pinkie/Ember scene.
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.
