Best Episode by No. in Season (Episode 4)

>>28953917
Difficult to decide between Applebuck Season and Luna Eclipsed IMO.

>>28953917
Luna Eclipsed, obviously.

>>28953917
Applebuck Season was good, but Luna Eclipsed wins here

S1 and S2. I prefer S1 Applebuck Season because it's just hysterical, but Luna Eclipsed was a wonderful episode that put Luna in a lovable, sympathetic spotlight.

Best to worst:
>Luna Eclipsed
>Daring Don't
>One Bad Apple
>Applebuck Season
>On Your Marks

Personally none of these are really standout

>Bloom and Gloom (8.1)
This was a cool psychological exploration on Applebloom and the CMC's desire to get their Cutie Marks without being overblown.
>Luna Eclipsed (8)
Nice fun episode with Luna. Was much better than her ultra emo fanon personality
>Applebuck Season (7.5)
Fun, comfy s1 ep with some great character interactions and probably AJ's second best ep behind TSSCS6000
>One Bad Apple (7)
An alright ep bumped up by a unfairly cute and catchy song. JUST LOOK AT THEM HNNNNNNNG
>On Your Marks (5)
Really average, neither disliked or liked it.
>Daring Don't (4.5)
Wouldn't go as far as call it bad because it has a really good lesson but it was kinda dumb

This is a hard one, I like many of these. But, I'm sorry, I'm going to go with season 4.

I usually don't like Dave Polsky episodes, and making Daring Do real was a really bad idea. But the truth is, I actually enjoyed that episode more than any of the others here. So Daring Don't is my final answer.

Bloom and Gloom is my all-time favorite episode.

I agree with what >>28954027 had to say on it. The added depth it showed for her was cool. I understood how she felt and could appreciate her feelings a bit more. The fear of abandonment that was later shown again in On Your Marks is interesting to me, and Luna's lesson at the end was a great one. All the dwelling and anxiety that Apple Bloom was going through was relatable to me more than any other episode that I can think of, and she was likable and easy to sympathize with throughout. I believe that anyone who seriously dislikes it for reasons other than the idiotic opinion that "Apple Bloom's so boring!" are mistaken in their complaints. Apple Bloom wasn't dumb to have unrealistic fears manifest in her nightmares, or have cutie marks work weirdly in there. That's what dreams do. They go against logic and operate on feelings, and she was feeling bad.

I'd wished that I could have enjoyed On Your Marks as much, because it did have a great song and nobody was characterized badly, but finishing it never gives me a sense of satisfaction like I was happy with what I'd just seen. It had quite a bit in common with my favorite episode and was focused on feelings, which I love, but I can't say I love that episode.

Any more?

Once read, it took me 1.8 seconds to discard your opinion

Why? It's not like it's a terrible ep.

A lot of people here just seems to dislike Apple Bloom herself and refuses to give any episode starring her a chance. It's like, if she gets a lot of attention, it automatically loses 4 points to them, and a flawless, thoughtful, and meaningful episode about her would just be a 6. I don't understand it, but that seems to be the case, especially if you look at the episode ranking threads with sorters.
