Should We Have Gotten A Body Swap Episode?


Denim&Venöm

Recommended Posts

It's a common trope in kids shows where two characters will have their minds swapped into different bodies. Dexters Lab, Jimmy Neutron, Kim Possible, Teen Titans, Power Rangers, Marvel's animated universe, have all done it. So should MLP or EQG have followed suit? An episode with a spell gone awry and evrey pony has to do the others daily jobs and master their special talents? 

Personally I'd watch it just to see the VAs takes on other characters.

Edit: Apparently 'She Talks To Angel' was a body swap episode and obviously I haven't seen it yet. 

So instead, should we have gotten an episode or short with the whole main cast being swapped or did STTA do a good enough job with the premise?

"She Talks To Angel" was a body-swap episode with Fluttershy & Angel Bunny. 

Now I can't wait to see the episode, and I haven't even started season nine yet! God, how I love Body Swap episodes!

Okay while everyone are saying the same.obvious.thing as the next person, I think it would be fun to watch. I mean the "magical mystery cure" is somewhat near a body swap, but after seeing that example above, I would be interested to see how that goes in a long run.

I think one body swap episode is enough, and "She Talks to Angel" was one of my favorites in season 9. :) An episode with a body swap between the Mane 6 would probably have been very similar to "Magical Mystery Cure" (which @TBD already referred to).

I found it more interesting that such an episode involved not only one of the Mane 6 but also a character who hasn't appeared that much (the pets haven't really been in the spotlight a lot lately). Especially since Angel's previous portrayals haven't always been the best...

I'd be interested, but I could already see them being swapped with the most obvious characters(Rarity and Applejack, RD and Fluttershy, Pinkie and Twilight)

While we didn't get a canon Mane Six swap episode, we DID get Fluttershy and Angel one, though.

A Mane Six body swap episode would of been... interesting.

Actually, I don't care for those gimmick type episodes unless the gimmick help heighten a problem they are already having. For example, they had a body swap episode in Gravity Falls where the main characters are trying to win the rights to a newly discovered bedroom, but after they body swap they realized they could sabotage the other's efforts. That was really engenius.

I LOVE body swap episodes!

"Walk a Mile in my Hooves"

While categorizing magical artifacts. Princess Twilight and her brother Shining Armor have what is a true rarity for them. An argument! 

"I wish you could see my side!" They both yell as an artifact begins to glow.

Before they know it, they are occupying each other's bodies!

 

The race is on to reverse the spell, before Shining Armor's romantic anniversary dinner with his beloved Cadence. Can they find the counter spell, before Twilight becomes much MUCH closer to her former foal sitter and sister-in-law?

(Yes, that's how my addled mind works!)
