This week has seen a massive amount of news about upcoming (or freshly released) official MLP: FiM content, with previews! Which means there is lots to analyze right now and I will cover all of it in three separate blog entries! Here is Part 1, about the "Rainbow Roadtrip" Special:

So, this episode really wasn't what I was hoping for. I don't hate it, of course, and I still like what it turned out to be. Even love a certain aspect of it, more about that below.

This episode hit all the right chords with me. All of them. It deals with a lesson for life that is important, but underestimated by many in this world, in a society where people are quick with throwing old things away:

I guess anger is like other feelings. It's not about having them, it's what you do with them. - Autumn Blaze

This episode got very special to me, a gift in times where I need it most.
It contains two very important lessons:

Getting angry and letting out your anger in controlled ways is not wrong.

and

You can only have positive feelings if you have negative feelings as well.

.....certain things keep me occupied right now:

I'm busy analyzing what is going on there (and in the other teaser too) and this is taking up my time currently. But I want to get "Princess Flurry Heart, Destroyer of Worlds!" done before Season 7 starts, so, there WILL be another chapter this week, which I will be writing tomorrow and on Sunday.

I'm sorry for this awful, negative title. I still love this episode, for the reasons you can read about below, but coming up with titles is something I suck at a lot and I just couldn't think of anything better.

This episode brings with it a great loss. For almost nine seasons, we know about Spike's legendary crush on Rarity. And now that crush is gone, because Spike's heart has found someone else than Rarity. Sparity is a thing of the past.

I can finally write my review for "Molt Down" today! And with this episode, M.A. Larson returned to wing another creature, this time under his super-secret pseudonym "Josh Haber", continuing his neverending mission of bringing anger and despair over this fandom with the power of Change!

By all fillies in Equestria..... Rainbow Dash was a MASSIVE douche today. I mean, it's not exactly surprising. We've seen her like this in the past. Rainbow Dash always had a douchebag attitude in certain moments. She even used to be a douche to Fluttershy (!) and to Scootaloo (!!) way back in the past. That is her. That is Rainbow Dash. That is one part of her and we all know that some things never change.

"Frenemies" is finally here! The long-awaited episode to see more of Grogar's plan! And, wow, it dropped SO MUCH epic stuff on us! And it delivered a lot of interesting hints what could await us in the future and what we might see in the season finale.

And with this week it finally happened again, the thing the show needs these days: A Student Six episode! :D Nine months Seven weeks they left us waiting, but now they have given us another episode focused on the sextet of awesomeness! :D
And what an episode it was! Silverstream and Ocellus were heroes, Yona delivered another one of her punchlines and..... But let's start at the beginning.

Season 8 is finally back and it's already off to an excellent start, with another Friendship School episode! A Friendship School episode in which we see Starlight Glimmer losing it and killing Discord..... What? No, I'm not kidding. This actually happened!

A few days ago, I was rewatching "School Daze" to give the episode some more thoughts, because there is quite a lot to see in it and a lot that invites you to deeply think about it. One sentence in particular stuck out to me:

So, despite this being an old-fashioned Pinkie Pie episode, I actually find myself a little bit more interested in this one again than it's usually the case with Mane Six episodes these days. I'm still quite a bit peeved over it that it isn't a Yona episode, even though the title implies this to some extent, but this is one of the rare episodes where we can still see a new side and some personal development from a member of the Mane Six, so I enjoyed this one more.

This episode is a revelation. And a blessing. I was waiting for something like this, getting an insight into Angel's mind. To see how he truly ticks.

Because Deviantart randomly decided to nuke them from my Stash. I had them saved in there, now there's only Part 1 left anymore.....
I can't tell when they will come now, as I don't have time to try and remember all of it and then write it down again this week.
And I'm currently too frustrated by it that I lost everything I've written to write it again, so Part 2 and Part 3 are delayed until whenever I am able to do that.

On Tuesday, Volume 1 of the first, official, english manga for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic got released! I have this volume pre-ordered for months now, ever since Equestria Daily reported about it last year. Unfortunately, I still have to wait for quite some time until I can read it, because Amazon UK only gets it on July 1st for whatever reason (and because I didn't ask my local comic shop if they can order it, because I'm only used to buy the official comics there, so I forgot that

After some delay due to a certain rise of depressions, here are now my belated afterthoughts on "Surf and/or Turf":

- Right at the beginning of the episode, I noticed something interesting about Sweetie Belle's reaction over it that they get send to Mount Aris. After she said "Wow, that's almost", she paused for a very short moment and only then continued with "off the table!". And she was flinching slightly during that pause and seemed confused.

So, this episode has a message I did not expect to see in the show! Granted, a lot of messages in MLP: FiM have surprised me, but this is one I genuinely expected to never see in it, as it is such a fixated thing in human society that I simply did not think anyone would criticize it:

The old belief that clothes make a person.

So, the hints for my observation that the attack by King Sombra was just a giant ruse by Celestia and Luna to test Twilight and her friends before they retire that I expected to see in this episode weren't there. But nothing that contradicted my observation either, so I'm still on point with it.
