Myung

Unpopular I guess (?) but I wasn't really a fan of this premiere. The pacing just felt completely off throughout both parts and I disliked the way the Mane 6 suddenly lost their intelligence and their powers where the plot suited it. Twilight suddenly remembers how to teleport to get into the castle but couldn't do that multiple times before. The other villains had no screentime at all after their first appearance and the end of the episode. The princesses retiring came out of the blue. The lesson about "having the elements within" is rehashed and has been covered multiple times. Just in the season 1 premiere in fact, Nightmare Moon destroys the elements but the Mane 6 realise the power is within them and defeat her. Probably my least favourite premiere but maybe it just needs a rewatch.

Too late to join? I'll opt in if not.

Yona, because she's cute and unlike other yaks is friendly (yaks tough, just not nasty), and doesn't intentionally destroy everything. Only unintentionally. Also, hugging Rarity (best pony) is a plus. The bows Rarity tied in her hair are cute too, I hope she keeps them.
