Are you retarded or what? Of course the parents exist, and we know they're going to appear next week.

How the fuck does it "fuck your life"? the question is wether or not they're dead, and considering that AJ DREAMS of them, with her as a BABY its even more probable now.

Watching it now.
Pointing out that it has never sent just one before does not change that there was a dam good reason it always sent two. Still I am optimistic.

MY PENIS CAN ONLY GET SO ERECT

Personally I think it was a really solid episode, an easy 8/10 for me
+Starlight was barely a part of it except for fucking up in the beginning
+Celestia showing a motherly side again with making breakfast every morning for her and Luna
+Luna eating shit like whole pineapple and banana peels
+Luna worrying about how she might have possibly hurt other ponies like the school foals
+Celestia showing her worrying side again when she found out she had to work alone
+Celestia talking to herself
+Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon death battle
+Celestia and Luna becoming closer again
+Overall great moral

-Poochie fucking up
-Poochie getting away with it
-Celestia and Luna still bickering like teenagers after this many millenia
-All those inconsistencies

I can see the faults but it didn't bog down the episode for me

Where were you when TwiDash was made canon?

What's with this fuckery?

So far this is one of the best seasons of all time. Nearly flawless run.

I'm getting that feeling again, guys. You know the one

>>30126034
This is actually good reasoning. Personally I'd rate it 7/10 but your points hold true.

>>30126035
>Little did anon know, it was actually the dream of a lone human wandering the lands of equestria, who shipped them together

Twilight was probably up all night worrying about Celestia, so it was Dash.

So let me get this straight, the animators bother to make the lavander wither but don't do a fucking research to check that the black spot on Luna's flank is not part of her qtmark but some kind of birthmark

>>30126131
It's literally a being cocked up in Glimmer's mind. Celestia herself says she doesn't exist.

That's the definition. NMM on the otherhand is real.

I thought one of the major talking points of the episode would be how the map actually called Starlight.
But so much happened I feel that's going to get lost.


Anyone else find this completely bemusing? The map which was directly born from the tree of harmony, which contains the Elements of Harmony. Starlight isn't an Element. She doesn't even have a throne.

Yet the map called her. How does this work? Has her tampering with the Map connected her to it somehow?

>>30126034
>+Overall great moral
I agree with you on the main moral, which funnily enough can be applied to all those commie retards who think CEOs just spent the entire day jacking off on their office.

Now Glimmer realizing she was correct in fucking up the two most powerful ponies in Equestria to solve the problem is a terrible moral.

>Shit eaters stick their fingers in their ears and go "LALALALA" when confronted with an actual flaw.
Don't be surprised. Even DHX seemed to realise how BS that was, given that they just start out with the map calling her, and they never dive into why it's doing something completely different seemingly without reason (you know, the most basic of script-writing). Not even a "Hmm, I could guess X, but we can't know for sure", just straight up ignore it.

Actions behind closed doors.
VS
Actions in a public venue.

Pastors of churches are more susceptible to this very thing.

>>30126267
but like a few others said the map did send the mane 6 to Starlight to begin with
Is the tree alive? Is the tree Starswirl's grave?
>had magic even after the elements were taken out to contain the Everfree and fight off Discord's magic vines for millenia

>>30126224
Starlight's pissed off the map by fucking with it one too many times. Starlight is henceforth Map-Bitch.

>>30126287

With the parents episode we could hope for a videogame reference, that'd make it double.

>>30126263
I'd switch princess SoL with Glim episode.
The season premier was a (Princess) Twilight/Celestia episode more than a Glim episode, and also pretty much slice of life because no Statu quo was changed

>>30126299
We don't even know what the elements of harmony or the map are, they can do whatever they like with it as long as they use it to tell some good stories.

To resolve a problem, which they did. That in itself doesn't really connect her to the Map. When the Castle and the Map was made, we hadn't even heard of Starlight

It must be the mane, but Luna looks super sexy here.

>>30126263
I don't understand how glimmer fucked up though. She was right. The princesses even said as much at the end. Or is it just because that's how it appeared at first?

>>30126343

Imagine twilight trying to handle that situation, wouldve been horrible.

Not really, she only had one episode dealing with that, and even then it was more "friendship takes time, don't take the easy way out" than don't use magic.
The moral of all bottled up is don't bottle up your anger, not don't use magic.

solid 8/10

the design of Day-breaker was bad and they should have used the TCG design
the tasks Luna was given seemed trivial given Celestia's position
Celestia's quick turnaround bugged me
the episode should have been a two-parter because it felt so short
lastly, It should have been THE PRINCESS OF FRIENDSHIP that solved the problem rather than poochie
other than that it was a pretty good episode

How about you learn about good story telling instead of defending shit simply because it has a Hasbro logo on it. Or better yet, drink a tub of bleach and livestream it to make everyone happy, including your parents.

>>30126071
That you're a homo fag with shit taste?
Because this season was mediocre so far, and with this episode breaking both Celestia and Luna's characters, it is officially awful

>>30126487
>don't bottle up your anger, not don't use magic
I agree, but at the same time at the end of the episode Starlight says "haven't you learned anything about using magic to solve your problems", implying that in fact the use of magic is a bit of a problem

>>30126550
So, the answer is yes either way?

You don't hate them or have anything against them, but your also don't really care that much if they have a nice day or not.

>>30126596
this would have been a perfect opportunity to shatter it when she is forced to act, though.

This episode conveniently forgets that Celestia took over Luna's duties, in addition of her own, for a thousand years, and had no problems.

>>30126611
All Celestia did was raise the moon, she never had power over dreams.

>>30126611
I get the feeling she just let all the ponies have nightmares. The foals seem really happy to have her around which would seem to indicate they suffered from nightmares before her return.

>>30126439
Nope. I did too.

Is it the first time the map sends someone solo and not with another pony?

>>30126611
This. Shouldn't the crux of the problem focus more on the dreaming aspect rather than the night duties and raising the moon? Because she obviously hasn't run the kingdom into the ground this past millennium.

>>30126631
mirror pool again?

>>30126611
I don't think she handled dream duty though
The unforgivable one is the moon raising one, that's something she did consistently while Luna was gone

>>30126611
I guess you could say that celestia just didn't address nightmares and raised the moon without a cutie mark for it, thus never actually knowing what it was like when luna did it.

>>30126637
I feel like I've made this point a dozen times yet people can't understand it
It's pretty damn easy to follow. It's clearly stated how short Luna's to do list is in comparison. But Celestia never did any of it.

>>30126611
I've actually always had the headcanon that, except for raising the moon, Celestia didn't do any of Luna's other duties

>>30126659
this. She didn't assume the job of dreamwatcher

>>30126664
It does raise the point that for the thousand years she was gone, no one was governing the realm of dreams and it's not like that caused any major problems we know of.

Glimglam wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it would be. I'm fucking glad the writers focused on the princesses like it should be

so it WAS actually a royal sister epsode, glimmer and her quirk were just plot devices huh.

>>30125929
This was a very comfy episode and I like Glimglam she's a pretty good horse actually.

>>30126034
Those negatives and still an 8/10?
You got some low standards.

Luna and Celestia still fighting like this is pretty retarded to begin with after 1000 years of regret. Most of your positives are what should be the bare minimum for these characters, not what we give any praise for. It would be like praising the writers for remembering Rarity likes dresses.

>>30126224
it might be that since she fucked with the map, the map intergrated her magic into itself and has thusly made her its bitch

>>30126688
Well did we see those 1000 years? Not at all really.
It's not fair to say.

I mean, if Celestia had visited the Dream Realm for 1000 years there'd literally not even be an issue of defeating Daybreaker because she'd know how to deal with it

>>30126728
I think waifufag anons are just mad she's getting better episodes and overall development than the Mane 6 got in the first few seasons.

can anyone defend Starlight being called? It makes no sense with the map being connected to the elements of harmony

BEHOLD THE GLORY OF A NEW SUN

Well, now that I've watched it without the lag, lets read the thread. Here's my rating before I do so.

9/10, coulda used less Glimmer. The only reason she's there is to switch the cutie marks, which didn't even need to be done because you just could have had the princesses switch duties for a day anyway. They clearly would have been up for it. There was no reason to have her there.
Well, I guess her dream also counts,
but it also could have just as easily been Twilight's dream, or Luna's dream, or anyone elses.

10/10

so many people thought this episode had 'bad' written all over it and i've been saying non-stop that the premise was great

i feel so vindicated
in your faces morons

>>30126745
It can be explained by Starlight having messed with the map back on Season 5

>>30126688
How many ponies have we met that are neurotic messes? how many of them could of done with Luna dropping in during their childhoods to help them work through their shit like the CMC?

Wait, wasn't Parental Glidance todays episode?

>>30126722
Chinese cartoon plot-twist-tier

>>30126738
>barely know anything about the princesses personalities
>they should have a bare minimum
this episode practically set up who the princesses actually were for the first time in the series or dyewts?

>>30126656
You know what, I'm just coming to see something.

Did you know that Celestia makes pancakes based off of what fruit Luna ate the prior morning? She's trying her best to appease her sister by giving her pancakes themed off of her favorite fruits.

You will never have a smiling Celestia make you strawberry pancakes after she catches you eating a strawberry from the fridge sometime during the previous day.

It hurts.

>>30126224
Element of magic passed in Glimmer??

>poochie the serial mind rapist is at it again
>this time the princesses get violated
She did it on reflex too. She really is an incurable sociopath.

>>30126740
The need for the dream world to be safeguarded implies the existence of a threat. Perhaps it was just luckily sealed away somwhere since before Luna became corrupted.

>>30126751
Yes.

>>30126771
more like murican

>>30126745
Nope, it's officially just a plot element for any pony who they need to push. Oh wait, except Starlight will be the only non-Element pony it'll call on because they need to push her toy sales.

>>30126739
The perfect defence mechanism for a weird doombending machine. I would read a story about it.

>>30126589
Do you have an archive for all the episodes?

>>30126756
celestia needs luna's magic to enter the dream world and switching cutie marks gave her that ability.

>>30126627
She just had an epiphany, seriously it's everywhere.

Shit and FALSE.
That's fucked up. Talentless fags scriptwriters once again brought armories to eat fucking stories about the main character of the series - Starlight Glimmer, about the duties of princesses, about the winter. It would seem, a fucking theme, after all, we rarely (though of what I'm never) show a story about the life of princesses. And in this series, it was the relationship between the two sisters. "So why the FUCK, you fucking pig?" - will ask me the announcement. The answer is that we are being quarreled and uneasy relationships presented as old ones, and as I said, in the previous series there was not a single hint of it.
The second claim: I do not like how the writers apapyut strength and arrogance Starlight. She just took it and calmly, psihanuv, changing their cutie marks. A princess that, can not spell this? Fuck then need such a princess?
We proceed further:
1) I do not think that the ability to cut a ribbon is somehow pumped during a lifetime.
2) Scene with a smile - fucking shame. She knows how to smile, like nyashka at my peak.
3) And she can talk in her usual voice. The use of TCG simply did not make sense. Well, except that I laugh the brunettes.
I do not understand why this is considered difficult for the moon. And although I know: I needed a reason for the two sisters to repent for underestimating the work of each other, although objectively, Luna did more work than Celestia, because the first one jumps like a dick on other people's dreams, Nightmares and still gives advice, while the second is photographed and eats cakes.

>>30126628

>>30126815
Although the scene with the two fighting Nightmasters is happy, it's completely pointless, its only function is to let Celestia understand how she underestimates the work of the moon. Joint forgiveness, tears, pimples return to their places. The end.
The series, of course, is not the worst, but definitely bad and meaningless. I do not understand why everyone will be drooling because of her. Because of the Twilight ballerina? Because of the new phap-object in the form of ... Em, another Celestia? Because of the past, the sisters, their mutual growing up? And, fuck, this was not in the series, fucking. But the series could have turned out much better if it had been shown that the cause of the srache originates from their childhood.
Their childhood could show, we would have seen the foal-sisters, the old Equestria, their mother and father, for example. That's when I would say 10/10! And so ... And so the series gets its 3/10, unfortunately.

Poochie was chosen to star this episode because of her cutie mark switching bullshit powers, but this was entirely unnecessary. Celestia and Luna didn't need to switch marks to assume each others duties.

Truly a horrible result.
It makes some sense considering how naturally panicky ponies seem to be.

I thought that at first, but after rewatching, the cutie mark switch also switched their magic. The colors for when they're using magic also switched. Luna mentions that she has Sunbutt's magic, which doesn't work in the dream world.

I'm not sure why people act like this is a negative when it's the most believable part for me. People get irrationally upset about trivial shit all the time.

Bear in mind they never bothered to fix the reasons luna went mad. They just beat her up. makes sense it would start to fester again.

This is why Starshit will never be a liked character. The writers already committed several times the worst sin one can make when introducing a new character, making the old characters look bad so that the newcomer can look good, instead of making an effort to make the new character likeable on their own right. No, that's too hard.

Just finished watching it, have some random thoughts.

>Even Twilight calls bullshit on glimmer being called by the map.
>Celestia is being oblivious to the feelings of the sister she was forced to banish after being oblivious to her feelings.
>The source of Twilights pancake fetish is discovered.
>Starlight is apparently a big expert on social interactions now.
>Starlight is able to, on impulse without prior planning and in a sudden burst of magic, switch the cutie marks of both sisters yet this is apparently a documented spell that cant be reversed for 24 hours.
>Luna hasnt done shit in terms of the day-to-day running of Equestria since her return, Celestia literally handles everything.
>Starlight is advising her, instead of the ponies / pony whose literal job it is to do this and that we've previously seen in the background and comics (Their place in canon irrelevant).
>Celestia forgets she raised the moon for a 1000 years.
>Celestia never realised Luna did her job all alone.
>Talks to herself constantly.
>Starlight just fucking told Celestia that the Princesses cant see why they both need eachother.
>Celestia does not say "Of course i love my sister." to this or even visibly react
>Daybreaker, awesome name.
>Laser fight, neat.
>MOTHERFUCKING STARLIGHT being the one to say that both princesses are needed for harmony, celestia still not commenting.
>Poor Luna, possible children of the night reference.
>Luna's just pulled out of her dream without even a "Are you okay?" and her nightmare isnt commented on at all.
>Stock "Your job is actually hard, no you." resolution.
>Starlight encouraged to keep fucking things up with magic, despite the multitude of ways this could have been accomplished without said fuckup either with Starlight or without her if the map sent someone else.
>Twilight spergle is autistic.

Cant give it more than a 5/10, good episode but it's faults are pretty glaring to me.
Overall, i'm disappointed.

I think that was a reference to how long we haven't heard of the elements anymore.

>Instead of Twilight/Celestia/Luna interactions we get Celestia/Luna/Poochie.
Twilight was acting like she's scared of Celestia despite being a princess herself, raising/lowering the sun/moon in that Tirek episode, the "you'll play your part" shit, etc.
It's like Twilight hasn't made any progress at all in her relationship with Celestia. What happened to Twilight's stress management she learned from Princess Cadance? I guess we're just going to forget that too.
Then again this show hasn't bothered with consistency except by accident ever since they retconned a princess into Twilight's pre-cutie mark foalhood.

Be prepared for a pretty good episode. Featuring Wow! Glimmer.

>>30126487
You're just going to skip over the part where Glim's magic brainwashes three ponies into attacking Trixie and is instantly forgiven for it?

Are all of you this intellectually dishonest?
