Juggerpony

THis was the funniest thing I have ever read, it is so stupid

Why, hello, everypony, and welcome back to an episode of..... huh, I actually dont have a creative, unique title for my blogs. That is..... Kinda sad. I cant just keep calling this the Juggerpony Blog! I need something new, something unique. VoR has "MLP: What Works". Firebrand has "Taking *Insert Episode Name* Too Seriously". I need something.... something that poeple will remember. Can you people in the chat help? Post a comment as to an original idea I can use because.... I am not creative in the slightest. Enough of that jazz, I am here to bring you an episode review, and I just had to say that the fandom had..... mixed feelings about it. Some thought it was great, some thought it was horribe. Some even compared it to Double Rainboom (That.... THING). However, I am going to do something different today. Instead of telling you my thoughts on the episode (Whether it was good or not) right here, I am going to talk about the episode first, then give my overarching opinion of the episode at the end. So, without further a do, ladies and gentlecolts, grab yourselves a can of Moxie and a packet of Hostess whatever, because we are diving in! We start off with Rainbow Dash encouraging ponies the start of Winter. Great call back to that one season 1 episode that escapes me for some reason. Oh, and her pet tortoise, Tank, is with her. RD suddenly starts noticing that Tank seems a little more tired than usual. Consulting Fluttershy, it is revealed that Tank is going to hybernate. Rainbow denies it, saying that Tank just needs to get some blood pumping. When the other Mane Five question Dash, she blows up in there face, giving us a hilarious new pic to convert into a meme. Can someone create that meme? I cant, for some reason. After Rainbow storms off, she deduces that, since Tank can only hybernate when it is cold, that to keep Tank she has to stop winter! Shes a mean one, Rainbow Grinch. Yes, I laughed at that reference. Because..... comedy. Anyway, Rainbow does everything in her power to thwart the Weather Ponies attempts to bring winter. And that means she gets a SOLO SONG! Her first solo song in the series and, just a quick critique at it, it was really good. Not something I would listen to over and over again, but still, something I would probably play on a Spotify playlist. Anyway, back to the Episode. Over time, Rainbow find out that to stop winter, she has to stop it at the source. AKA, she is going to take out the Cloudsdale Weather Factory. And, with both a homage to Rainbow Factory and Metal Gear, she breaks in and takes out the water supply. After a bunch of things go wrong, and a Game of Thrones reference, RD actually makes winter come quicker. This leads Rainbow to go into a MULTIPLE WEEK LONG DEPRESSION. Like.... wow. Anyway, her friends go to cheer her up, with little success. Until Fluttershy, being the great friend she is, tells Rainbow that her winter is going to be petless. This results in Rainbow Dash crying. Fluttershys explanation was that Rainbow just had to let all her feelings out. And, after a good, genuine soun ding crying moment, Rainbow comes to her senses, and lets Tank hybernate. And now, my thoughts on the episode. Ok, so story wise, I thought it was great! The pacing was good, the humor was amazing, and the emotional moments seemed genuine. The humor was both centered around standard and referencial humor. There were SO many references, I couldnt count them all. But it helped the episode out a lot. A lot of critisism has been thrown at this episode, especially towards Rainbow. People are saying that she was acting out of character, just like in Double Rainboom. But I actually would have to disagree. This didnt really seem like a character assasination, but more like character DEVELOPMENT. Now, lets delve into that. Ok, so Rainbows over reaction. People have said that she was reacting like Tank was going to die or something, not go into hybernation for 3 months. Well, we have to take into consideration a few things. 1. Off screen action. It seems like Rainbow and Tank are very close, and this was probably developed through off screen action. I mean, look at it this way. RD lives alone in her Sky mansion. Her onyl other companion, besides her friends, is Tank. We have heard Rainbow say in this episode that she does a lot with Tank when they get the chance. He reads with her, sleeps with her (Shippers, dont even think about it!), and keeps her company when she is alone. And now she had to get rid of that comfort for 3 months. 2. Their Relationship. We havnt really seen much on Rainbows family, and the closest people we have seen to Rainbow is her friends. A lot of people take pets as genuine family. I had a cat once, and he was family to me. When the cat had to be put down, I cried. Granted, i am like Applejack, and I cried on the inside, but I was still heartbroken. Granted, Tank isnt dying. But still, RD is giving up family for 3 months. That is especially hard. Another critisism to this episode is that Rainbow, supposedly, caused thousands of bits in Cloudsdale property damage, and got off scott free. Which I also have to disagree with. First, I dont think anyone caught her. Nobody knew it was her that caused all that damage. The weather ponies probably would just think that it was a machine malfunction. And if she was caught, then there is another explanation, and that is found in a line of dialogue our dear Princess of Friendship said. "You havnt been acting yourself for the past few weeks". PAST FEW WEEKS!?! Guys, in those few weeks, Dash probably could have been doing community service, or doing something to fix that damage done in Cloudsdale. So overall, I like this episode. Not my favorite this season(The Cutie Map gets that honor), but still, there are more good things in this episode than bad. So why do so many people hate this episode? Post in the comments! I want to argue..... I mean, Peacefully debate with you. Well, guys, Thanks for reading! Comment, subscribe to the blog, whatever. I love feedback, and I want to know what I should write next. Whether it is an episode, a fan work, or even a fanfiction, just comment. Each comment submitted will give this cat a watermelon. Guys, this cat really wants to buy a Rainbow Dash plushie, but cant! In his world, Watermelons are currency. So, each comment given will get this cat one step closer to his plushie. HIS PLUSHIE, DARN IT! THINK OF THE KITTENS. And that is all for today. Oh, and before I forget! I am starting up a Brony Skype Group! People should join! We will talk about the show, do collabs, and everything else fun in the world! PM me if you are interested.
