I assume you'll be posting the Canadian one from YouTube again?

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

I'm admittedly not that enthusiastic about this premise, but there's some promise with this one. As long as it plays it's cards like the Flurry Heart ep did; it should be just fine.

Eeyup.

[Prospekt 11,018]

As long as this doesn't trash Rarity's character like Applejack in Somepony To Watch Over Me, I'll be happy. No more of that overprotective nonsense. Been there, done that.

As someone who's favorite CMC is Sweetie Belle and has always enjoyed the dynamic between her and Rarity, any episode focusing on the two is a welcome sight.

Especially seeing how Sweetie Belle hasn't had an episode sense season 4, and has only had 2 episodes focusing specifically on her, while Apple Bloom gets the lion's share of CMC screentime.

So this is clearly an episode that I am looking forward to.

I think it can work, as long as it dosen't seem too forced or cringy. If it turns out good, i even expect a really adorable episode.

Agreed. ^^

Apple Bloom is usually the CMC who gets episodes of her own, so this is a nice change of pace. Sweetie Belle and Rarity are a great combination that hasn't been seen near enough. Put them together for a nice story about realizing how much time has flown by and how much the younger sister has grown, and that's a great recipe for a heartwarming episode.

Certainly. I am not as big of a Rarity fan as most people on the forum, but Sweetie Belle is my favorite CMC and that alone makes this episode a must watch for me. :3

[Buttonmash1973 1,026]

I love Sweetie Belle and I'm hyped for this.

[Ganondorf8 11,303]

Sweetie Belle is all grown up now much to Rarity's surprise.

[Dark Qiviut 22,396]

What I'd love to see here is a moral about growing up.

Spoiler

You growing up doesn't mean you can't enjoy lifelong or "kid-like" activities or hobbies.

 

[Lambdadelta 1,462]

I want Rarity and Sweetie episode for so long, i am exciting to see this episode xD. Please be good, please be good, please be good, please be good.

Bonus: I hate the last ep so much (ep 5), hope this ep can improve my mood.

[Dark Qiviut 22,396]

When someone uploads it onto YT.

Zipporwhill shows up, and she, too, has a mark: three paw prints!

Sweetie Belle not feeling it watching the puppet show w/ Rarity.

Pretty okayish episode

BOOYAH! BOOYAH! I was right about the Age lift in the first place! They did with Digimon season 2 and King of the Hill with Breckin Meyer voicing Joseph!

[Mesme Rize 15,683]

I got this strange feeling, that the writers tried desperately to fit 2 episode ideas into one and in my opinion, it really didn't work well and also feels very off at times.

Shouldn't Rarity kinda know what Sweetie Belle likes and shouldn't the mexican pegasus (sorry forgot the name) know that her puppy got old? This all feels kinda stupid in my opinion. I found the balloon maker nice though and Raritys flower outfit reminded me of Peter Gabriel.

All in all though, this episode did nothing for me and was in my opinion this seasons worst so far.

[Buttonmash1973 1,026]

I love this episode. So much flahshback.

[Jeric 46,851]

I have a lot to say about this episode thus far. 

I need to ruminate further before I really consider how I feel about this moral. They distilled a complex concept, which they can do well at times, but this time they must have distilled it too much. 

 

[GrimGrimoire 4,973]

Really cute episode from what I saw. I really enjoyed it. The streak continues.

Spoiler

Although the CMCs appear to be still fillies, it is made apparent they are getting older, and as such maturing. I actually felt really sad for Rarity as well, since I know them feels wanting something to stay the same even though it is changing right before your very eyes.

I don't always know what my own kids like as they have a lot of likes that are fluid. So that I can give a pass to. 

[Goat-kun 2,527]

Lesson of the day: big dogs ain't for little kids. Dogs are smart, but they are also beasts with a one-track mind. If a dog doesn't recognize your authority and doesn't' obey your orders you're screwed.

 

I have a feeling there was something else. I can't remember.
