  1. Did watched the episode today. I did liked Pinkie Pie's characterization in the episode (to the point I consider this her best characterization since Pinkie Pride), Twilight's nervousness showed her development through many things, but pacing and the yaks are especially problematic in this episode.

      @Hypno and Fawkes. Ty, but I must feel there is something more about me and my rep on this forum, another side that views me negatively as I feel without that side to argue with me, I worry about how it would impact me.

      Why are you suddenly so worried about that Nuke?

      It's because II'm feeling a sense of unease that has led to my concern. It could just be my paranoia however.

  6. Now I'll agree with many stuff on here, mainly on the tonal issues this episode presented. These points I'll present are ones I believe on the other hand differently. 1. Alright, first point I want to contest is your point on Fancy Pants. You assert that Fancy Pants is ooc because he reacted hastily and harshly to how things have happened at the Equestrian Summit among other things. Here's one issue I'm arguing against, why is Fancy Pants asking Princess Twilight to see if she'll grant him VIP passes for himself and whomever he chooses a bad thing? Especially considering how he reacted to Spike's refusal in Twilight's name with an appeased attitude despite not getting what he wanted and that Twilight is the one heading the summit and was the one he scheduled to meet with to discuss on getting those passes. His anger is also more understandable in the form of these points: A. It was he who ordered the the trees to be trimmed but yet finds that not only they weren't but the reason why his order was disobeyed was according to the tree cutter Twilight's orders them not to have them cut down. This is further built upon with a possible implication that he may have ordered the water pipe to be fixed only for it to be disobeyed in favor of Twilight's orders as well. B. Fancy Pants: "I'll not let Princess Twilight give Canterlot a bad name in the eyes of Equestria! Come on, everypony! Let's go give her a piece of our minds!" Here, we're presented his motivation and reason to be angry, his home city's name is degraded by Twilight's poor decisions in front of a summit where representatives from across Equestria are seeing right before their eyes. How do you think those representatives are going to look at Canterlot that had a water pipe burst, trees falling down, and their meeting hall drenched in water from the water pipe on the day of the meeting? Not very highly I'm afraid. To make matters more personal for him, because his orders were disobeyed to have them fixed only for Twilight to say nope don't fix them, how do you think anyone's going to react knowing that not only were their orders superseded by someone but that person's decisions led to a disaster for everyone involved? Understandably peeved. That's not including whatever is going on behind the scenes with the upper class in Equestria that again are not going to look Canterlot favorably after what had happened and thus he's likely going to suffer a hit to his reputation and especially the city he represents unfairly. C. He finds that there were many ponies who were also not pleased with Twilight's decisions as well who are just as ticked at their own results and how the meeting turned out. Thus of course he'll be leading an angry mob of ponies who share their disappointment in Twilight's decision making that has caused many bad outcomes on that day, even if he didn't called for it, I'm sure many would follow him to the tower regardless. 2. On another matter, your criticism on the ponies meeting solely with Twilight instead of the other princesses suffers a couple of issues in my opinion in the form of: A. We have no proof other than Cadance later in the day of the Princesses being available. For all we know, Luna and Celestia are probably working their butts off handling another group of ponies or other things to keep the delegation and day well at Canterlot and Equestria. To assume that Luna and Celestia should be at fault because they're not there in the episode after the prologue is to me unfair for them. None of them received any advance warning that their meeting is called off so why should they change their schedule to meet with someone else instead? Cadance has a bigger fault for it because she actually was the one who not only tells her sister in law to sleep for the day, but rather than tell Spike what he should do should any of Twilight's delegations come or even tell the meetings to be postponed at a later time she doesn't do any of that, and to a lesser degree, Twilight because she should've planned better than to spend three whole days without sleep dealing with the meeting. B. Why should they not expect their princesses to give them answers they seek in their meeting? Not only is it shown to be a responsibility for the princesses to do but it is something they've come to expect with good results after how long Celestia has been in charge handling those delegates and how Twilight has handled with various situations in Ponyville and Equestria as well. 3. About the issue with the two worker ponies who were busy working with important assignments, they were explicitly ordered from Spike representing Twilight who had wanted to keep things quiet for Twilight under Cadance's orders to stop their work. You can critique about how they should've thought with initiative like Spike did when put on his own, but considering how they were ordered by Twilight to not to do their work for at least a few hours. A thing is that when you're ordered by your leader to not do this at their request, you probably have to obey or so lest you face discipline for disobeying orders most likely even if you believe it is the most idiotic order imagined. 4. I believe he did closed the windows considering we see Spike through a closed window looking to see the polo (one thing I know I'll need to edit in my review) playing ponies that were actually shown disturbing Twilight's Sleep as she was moving annoyed by the noise. Thus he had every right to act on that situation. As for asking Celestia for a sound proof barrier, that's assuming such a thing exists, she actually knows doing such a spell, and she wasn't busy elsewhere that he can reach her. Other than that, many of your thoughts in your excellent review I agree with on many points. This is merely something that I wanted to add below this comment section with what I consider wrong in the review. It is my personal opinion of course.
  7. Hmm, perhaps that may convince me that Nightmare Moon is worst villain in the series. Nj, Coffee Pony.
  8. I agree that Nightmare Moon and Sunset Shimmer are my two weakest villains on the show and I won't mind which of the two is preferred. Nightmare Moon for being utterly stupid and not quashing the mane 6 as quickly as she could and should have. Her idea of impeding the mane 6 were just a bunch of contrived plot points rather than effective traps is especially damning. Sunset Shimmer needed tons of plot induced stupidity and contrivances for her plan to even get as far as she did, which was fitting that her plan was stopped via deus ex machina.
  9. DQ, may I post a counter to some of your points please? It would take some time of course to write a case but I'd like to rebuttal some of your points.
  10. https://mlpforums.com/blog/1500/entry-17140-fim-princess-spike-episode-review/ Here's my review for Princess Spike. Come and discuss what you guys thought about my review and offer your thoughts in agreement and disagreement. Either one, I'll welcome it and wish to hear it.
  11. I'm in agreement with Phineas and Ferb as while I thought the rather formulaic plot can wear a person down, but I did liked the characters and I especially loved the musics these guys do, even getting freaking Slash to guest star on their show (that's probably just as good as getting Weird Al on our show). Still, I definitely consider this one of the few genuine good shows from the mid 2000's and I'm happy to end on a rather good note and avoid becoming Disney's Spongebob as I feared it was going to be.
  12. Awesome to hear those guys return

    I should've clarified that I mean if he ever combined SSJ with Kaioken.

    I know, but that is more showing just how fast DBZ characters are rather than Instant Transmission itself. I know power levels are not just a strength measurement but a whole power measurement in every statistic imaginable. Does he use Kaioken after he got SSJ?

    Instant transmission is teleportation and teleportation isn't considered a feat of speed as activating and using it is very dependent upon how fast said person is with the spell. The reason why DBZ's instant transmission is so famed for it is because the DBZ characters are already very fast where teleporation is often a means for much slower characters to move from one location to another.

    The issue is that many websites have tried to crunch calcs and numbers for how fast and other measures is DBZ, which is a series rather infamous for being very difficult to calculate since it has very few actual cacluations to use for such manner. The only thing I've heard is that Battle of the Gods is the only time in the series thus far where a legit FTL calc is found.

    @Asbel Lhant actually that lightspeed claim from Raditz was actually an english dub error. It does not appear in other dubs or in the manga. Piccolo actually was referring to how Raditz managed to dodge his attack that had light in it rather than telling how fast Raditz is. This also gets further disproven in the Snakeway speed feat and others in the DBZ that don't show them being at FTL speeds. It would only be found in the Battle of the gods.

      A great taboo has been made

  20. Boast Busters is hated for the following reasons: 1. AJ, Rarity, and RD were picking on Trixie's bragging when it's very much part of her whole shtick as a magician to entertain the crowd through a boisterous persona. Trixie is unfairly cast as a villain for the episode because it is bad. 2. Those three ponies tried to discredit and upstage Trixie when she has done nothing wrong and yet we're still expected to view Trixie as the villain when those three were far more antagonistic. 3. Twilight's conflict is poorly thought out as being afraid to use magic because she didn't wanted her friends to hate her despite it being obvious that they didn't like Trixie's manner rather than her ability to use magic, especially when Rainbow Dash, AJ, and Spike all but confirmed that they wanted Twilight to use her magic to battle Trixie for who is the superior unicorn. 4. Snips and Snails were the ones who caused the damage to Ponyville and ruined Trixie's career by believing in Trixie's lie and than deciding that what better way to prove how great she is by actually summoning a dangerous creature for her to battle against. And they were never called out for it but yet Trixie's the one who is still the villain.
  21. I don't as the reason why Dragon Quest failed so much was because they decided to make Dragons into negative masculine stereotypes just to contrast with the positive feminine pony portrayals. None of the episodes problems were caused by Spike and if it wasn't for him, I would've considered it the worst episode in the series. They need to go back to those dragons and actually develop them properly rather than cow away from this much needed development for Spike I believe.
