Dark Qiviut

Maybe watching Act 3 helped my mood and changed my perception, but afterwards, I began enjoying A Trivial Pursuit much more. The faces, dialogue, witty (and snide) wisecracks, AJ vs. Dash, Twi getting the deserved short end of the stick, etc. A loose plot joined with a heartfelt lesson of just relaxing and treating a game for fun. This episode’s Twilight at her worst, but like a Rarity in a Sonic Rainboom, she does so without becoming unlikeable.

Twi cracked under pressure in LZ and then learned to breathe in Games Ponies Play, but in both episodes, her friends are the ones to learn the lesson, and her breathing practice was small in the plot’s scale. She sorely needed to learn this lesson on taking things easy and enjoying life more.

I don’t know what grade to give yet, but right now, it’s B/B+.
