I've caught up! (AGAIN) · 4:53pm May 16th, 2018
FYI Spoilers
So according to the amount of pictures, the School has been open for about nine months. I'd say the school is doing quite well! SUCK IT NEIGHSAY!
How does Fluttershy keep winning?!
Oh, this is a reference to Flutters being voted Best Pony isn't it?
OH WILL YOU TWO JUST KISS ALREADY?!
Wow, Pinkie throwing shade!
Sadly, I think so.
Synopsis
Applejack and Rainbow Dash take the Young Six on a field trip to learn about teamwork.

Not much to say on this episode, just dull and annoying. Rainbow and AJ regress their character development to Season 1, which Twilight even lampshades, the Tokens offer a couple quick quips but are pretty much accessories to a Rainbow and AJ episode, to the point where in the bridge building they stood still and watched as Rainbow and AJ worked. We're just watching AJ and Rainbow compete and be stubborn. But I agree with Rainbow, shed building is a lame field trip, it's more like a normal
Rainbow Roadtrip, mid-Season 9 special
Remember Student Counsel, and how Trixie was flipping out at Starlight? How Trixie was talking about the difference between buying a cake and making one, and we were all impressed at how funny they made it? Rainbow Roadtrip was like that, except if they were unable to make the mundane funny. For half and hour. I just stopped watching. Around the time RD meets her fanclub.
Grading Scale:
A (fantastic episode)
A- (an excellent episode with at least one flaw)
B+ (a great episode with a couple of flaws)
B (a good episode which still could have been better)
It’s about time we got back to focusing on the Student Six. We're an episode behind the point that Season 5 gave us the first two-pony map mission, so we're overdue on the show revisiting this season’s new gimmick.
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.
