Anyway, here's what I thought of Just for Sidekicks, in blog form:

 

An interesting episode Just for Sidekicks was. I think this episode showcased just how young Spike really is, as he's still learning to control his greed and hasn't quite learned responsibility yet, for both his own possesions(the gems) and other ponies' stuff(the pets). I think he still has a ways to go seeing the ending though, because he actually got away with all the trouble he got himself into... if there was supposed to be a clear moral here, I'm not seeing it. The CMC were also in this one, and they were pretty cute, but Spike just kind of used them... again, it goes to show that he's still got a lot to learn, but I don't like that he did that. The best bit of the episode. In my opinion was that the Crystal Empire was back briefly in all of its visual glory- well, somewhat at least, but since it seems the last 2 episodes will involve the area, so it's a nice bit of continuity, possibly the start of a sort of story arc? Also, I should also admit there were quite a few funny moments in this one, like Pinkie and Rainbow Dash interacting with their pets in particular, which were very entertaining. So yeah, not a super-fantabulous episode like last week's but pretty good nontheless, although naive and childish Spike is naive and childish, probably my least favorite episode in his case but still not bad. Decent. :huh:

I agree with most everything you say SBB, EXCEPT:


This episode, even if it was only pretty good and not by any means  great...

It's still better than Dragon Quest.

Nah I kid, that's just your opinion(Dragon Quest is awesome imo though). :P

Wait. I don't get why you think it's just decent. 

 

You said all this good stuff about, not a single negative thing, and it's just decent? What was so just decent about it?

Eh, I just think it could have been better. Mostly because of Spike, I explained that I didn't really like his behavior, and since he was the core of the episode I believe that warrants a bit of extra criticism. I liked it, but I didn't love it is all really.
