tacobob Posted April 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 It was a fun little episode.. We finally see what Twilight considers Spike to be...Her 'Little brother'. loved the bit with Applejack's previous singing career. Or was it? This episode was basically a bunch of bits the writers and voice actors wanted to do. And seriously. Baby Spike. So dang cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szalhi Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Lol, the best way to protect the crown is to stand near it. Who would have guessed? Nice work Shining Armour. The shards of the throne are supposedly anti-magic yet Starswirl just levitates them like it's nothing. Do they have some sort of toggle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacobob Posted April 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Might be a special anti-magic spell that only stops harmful magic..Or they needed to be turned 'on' to work via a spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelEagle Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 This episode was super fun. Apple Chord was so much fun, as was...pretty much everything else. You can tell the sort of passion that was put into it that it was special for them as well. The VAs always do great work but listen to the way Rarity says, "re-evaluate", the various blanches by Rainbow, Shining and Spike- not to mention the animation. Everything was up a notch. Very special, very fun episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacobob Posted May 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 And a geeky side note...AJ's goofy country outfit was based off an costume Dolly Patron wore at a concert...I'm too lazy to find the pic...Parton was also the inspiration for AJ's accent....Parton even did a Applejack song...But that AJ was a guy.

SteelEagle Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Yeah, Ashleigh Ball spoke about much of that early on. One of many reasons I really wanted more Applejack songs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
