What didn't you like about it?

Also, I just got done watching it, so I don't know what /mlp/'s consensus was on it.

The first half had the only good episodes. After the hiatus ended, it's been shit after shit.

Gauntlet of Fire was okay, Saddle Row Review was shit. If you wanted to properly refute my claim, you should have said Hearths Warming Tail and Newbie Dash. Even then, a couple of episodes being good doesn't mean the rest weren't some of the worst in the series.

I don't understand /mlp/ at all. When the episodes are good, you say they're shit. When they're shit, you say they're great. Do you people do this shit just to have an excuse to argue? Is this some kind of great meme I'm not in on?

>>28491890
Everything about this episode was retarded, from Twilight helping a psychopath to get even more powerful to the part where starlight accidentally brainwashed her friends and saw it as a good thing.

Now go back the fuck off to your room to keep farting, Jim.
You fucking fail as a director.

For me every episode after the wingz is fanfiction tier.

Well she dies at the end of this season if that makes you happy.

>>28492174
There's no problem with shitting on bad episodes (28 Pranks Later, Cart Before The Ponies etc.), but the criticisms that /mlp/ gives of some of the good episodes is just being cynical for the sake of being cynical.

The show has not changed at all; it's the fandom that has. It's retarded to conflate the two.

Are you just memeing? Is this a thing people actually believe?

Shitting on every episode without fail is as dumb as praising every one. Opinions and preferences disagree, what a shock.

>>28492132
Oh my goodness, there was conflict? How dire. I can't believe Twilight would do such a reckless thing as to actually teach her pupil.
>>28492134
>character development happens instead of a constant status quo

It was kind of stupid, but that was the show's way of making a point of her becoming a princess. Obviously it only happened because of toys, but I don't find it that big of a deal now that I've gotten used to it.

She's mostly been a burden upon it, but she actually had a meaningful purpose in this episode.

The show has changed, but it's still good overall.

They only disagree when someone is wrong.

at least the finale this season may have her getting the fuck out of ponyville with her mane 6 2.0

Pacing issues for the most part hurt episodes that could have been better, especially the opening.

>>28492264
Except people shat on car before the ponies and 28 pranks later and the rest of the shills still said but I rike it xD
Seriously, fuck this fandom and board. You all just want a fucking drone that praises everything no matter what and still sounds genuine. Every episode is 8/10 and that's it or leave because UR A SAD FUCK SO U DUN LIKE PUNIES!!!!.

Wouldn't the Predator pone or whatever this creature is have noticed somebody taking this picture? Especially since everyone seems to use flash photography.

S5 finale was bad? Other than the fact that it added Starlight to tye cast as a reacurring character I think it was the best of the 2 part episodes

>>28494423
Yeah, fuck people for liking things. If only these cringey hasdrones were self-aware like us, they'd be sad and miserable too.

S6 finale Starlight gets wings

>>28494505
For sure. S5 as a whole set the bar really high for quality. That's likely why episodes this season have felt safe because newer writers are afraid of not being able to live up to expectations.

>>28494346
That's actually one think I really loved about ELTSD. I think this is the best they've ever done with pacing. They were able to put a lot into the short 22 minutes they had without it feeling rushed in the slightest.

>>28494527
Nope, she'll die with Discord in the S6 finale.

>>28494528
Totally, the decline in quality from the season 5 finale and season 6 premeire is almost insulting

>>28494527
I was expecting Starlight to play a bigger role this Season. Was plesantly surprised that she didn't

Calling it now, Starlight will be the one to become Chrysalis' first friend. She'll be able to redeem her because she understands where she's coming from: megalomania, mind-bending, Equestrian domination and all.

The first half was mostly fine, some great, some okay, some meh EPS as usual. The rut was post Hiatus till around the Discord ep or so.

>>28494564

Their just massively different types of 2 parters, hard to compare something so much more low key like the Crystalling to the over the top mess of Cutie Remark.

For what it's worth i think the Starlight and Sunburst stuff was great but the Flurry Heart stuff was really meh.

>>28494743
>The first half was mostly fine
No it wasn't. I was legitimately afraid I stopped enjoying FiM altogether, I was going to hate all the new episodes regardless of what happens, and it wasn't just a drop of quality.
>The rut was post Hiatus
Wrong again. It was immediately better after the hiatus, even Patton's episode was better than the vast majority of the first half of the season.

>>28494827
If they had made Starlight the A plot and Flurry the B plot then the episode would have been that much better.

I actually made a promise to myself and a friend that if she gets wings at the end of season 6 I will rage quit life.

Can't wait to see an article about someone killing himself because his least favorite character became a princess.
