RaphLuna 307 March 31, 2018 Share March 31, 2018 (edited) season 8 is not as great as i hoped... Very disappointed. It is sadly so scattered and it is obvious they are running out of ideas. Thy are just trowing random stuff at us now., in a sad desperate attempt to keep their audience interested. The first 7 seasons are the best, however i feel that season 8 will be their last. They start out a friendship school. Then traveling solving problems through the map. and skip to a play with a princess involved.. I fear they will loose their audience... In their sloppy mix of mess.. If they decided to turn season 8 into a school to teach friendship why splash random stuff in the mix. hard to be interested, or follow, when some of the episodes has nothing to do with the school of friendship... i hope they do get Equestrian Tales on board. It would be beautiful to see the childhood of the 2 princesses when they were fillies.. Sad really .. The show is to easy to figure out how it ends before it even ends... I sadly feel. Season 8 is their last.. Am i the only one who feels this way.. .

Marimo 555 March 31, 2018 Share March 31, 2018 It's been three episodes. And of course they aren't going to stick with the school for all the episodes, just like how we didn't have a key arc covering every episode of season 4, or map episodes for every episode of season 5 and 6. It's to introduce a new element to tell stories, but that doesn't mean they have to make every story about that same thing or even drop older plot points. Even from the show's beginning, it wasn't supposed to be purely adventure or purely slice of life, it's supposed to just be able to tell a mix of stories.

Quote season 8 is not as great as i hoped... Very disappointed. How many episodes have you seen? If it's just School Daze and Maud Couple (and avoided the leaked episodes), there's much more coming.

Shrug 9,953 March 31, 2018 Share March 31, 2018 I think you should probably wait a little longer than just 3 episodes to come to the conclusion that S8 is a disappointment overall. I’m sorry but this just seems like a massive overreaction to me. :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In no season did all of the episodes within that season tie in to the overarching plot. Even when the Cutie Map was introduced, not every episode had to do with the Cutie Map. I'd say be patient. You may be disappointed with the three episodes out now, but there's still plenty of ground to cover with this season. You should also note that aside from the premieres and finales, all of the episodes are meant to have their own cohesive story so that if you watch them out of order, you won't be missing so much that the plot of that episode will be incomprehensible to you. Them "skipping around" like this is a result of this approach of continuity being there, but not being the focus of every episode. TwiDash, Promptis & Sonadow. RC Enthusiast. OC: Canary Wing.

They are OK however nothing Wows me.. However everyone is different.. To each their own Keep in mind that the leaked episodes if you saw them were incomplete. You're not getting the full experience with any of them. Lots of elements that are present in completed episodes were missing from those leaks, so you shouldn't judge the final episode's quality based on them. And even if they do turn out to be lackluster in their final stage, that is still only eight episodes. That's not even half of the season, assuming it's your average sized season which is 26 episodes. EDIT: was ninja'd, but my reply still stands so i'm just acknowledging i saw that quote.

smk.png 181 March 31, 2018 Share March 31, 2018 I know right? When Twilight said outside of Equestria, I thought this was a crossover of some kind. But sadly, no ponified Valt Aoi. All of right-thinking humanity is on my side. Sandwiches are meant to be cut in half. You would never, unless under extreme duress or madness cut a hot dog in half. Picture yourself at a ball park, or even at a restaurant, cutting a hot dog and you will feel an instinctive, entire repulsion at the very thought of it. You can get a soup with a half sandwich, but you’d never serve a half hot dog with a soup. It’s the equivalent of cutting a pizza with a knife and fork. Pashman says anything “sandwiched is a sandwich.” He’s using the derivative verb to describe the sandwich, so he is proving the premise with itself; it is a complete logical fallacy. I hope they’ll openly boo him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
