Can't wait! :o

Solid episode.

Very rushed.

The fact that it's rushed just makes it even better haha

The tear I dropped was a yawn tear! I swear!

One of my new favorite episodes, easy. Rainbow was very likable in this episode, and Scootalo went from a nopony to a pony with ties with Luna and Rainbow. What a great start for her.

*SPOILERS*

Hmm...new theory behind Nightmare Moon. Luna has the power to go into people's dreams to help them face up to their nightmares. What if one of those nightmares was too strong, or if too many of them ended up corrupting her? It would be a nice set up seeing as she ends as NIGHTMARE Moon.

Or perhaps her original plan was to put everyone to eternal sleep so she could torment them for all time.

Oh man... First reactions, as usual, which means they're still just as disjointed and jumbled as ever.

So there were some really awkward poses in this episode. Seriously, the whole Lyra sitting pony thing was cool all of one time. Anyway, that's probably my biggest gripe with the episode, which overall was very enjoyable.

Luna stole the show. I'm not sure if that's because of her role, or because she's Luna. Maybe a bit of both. I got all excited when I caught a glimpse of her earlier in the episode and I spent the rest of the time waiting for her to show up.

I was afraid I'd end up not liking Rainbow Dash much after this one, but the end proved me wrong. The whole Rainbow Dash/Scootaloo thing has been beaten to death by the fandom, but damn if that ending wasn't adorable...

I love Rarity, but poor Sweetie Belle... She's so enthusiastic about being with Rarity that she doesn't care about being Rarity's pack mule. Sweetie Belle is still best CMC. I wish they had used Michelle Creber (Sweetie Belle singing voice, in case anyone doesn't know) for the song, though. I get that it was intended to be annoying, but Sweetie Belle is supposed to be a really talented singer.

At first, I thought that Scootaloo's debut was going to be a crazy pony episode, after the first night of camping when she woke up and reminded me of Twi from Lesson Zero. Glad that wasn't the case. I'm not sure where this episode sits in my rankings, but it is definitely one of the better ones.

Unrelated to the new episode, I just read a fanfiction containing the amusing idea that brown hair dye is the pony equivalent of hot pink.

“Brown?” Rarity asked, raising a single eyebrow [...] “I know the idea is to make Sparkle stand out, but let’s not beg for attention, shall we?” [...]

“I think she’d look good in brown!” Pinkie Pie insisted, sliding up next to Sparkle and fluffing her mane. “All edgy and punk!”

“That may be, Pinkie Pie, but somehow I can’t help but think that Sparkle’s interests might be better served by a nice, soothing electric blue,” Rarity said.
