I love this episode. Zecora is a great character, very distinct from the rest of the ponies. She knows what's up and the secret of the Everfree Forest, which makes for a great backup tutor for the Mane Six when magic is not the main solution. Applebloom being the reasonable adult in a town full of grown ponies is very funny to me. Poison joke is also a great way to make fun of everyone, Spike just had a blast with it.

8.5/10, best episode so far.

Zecora as a character is someone I really wish had more lore/backstory on her. She's so interesting and her perspective is such a welcome one in the show. This episode feels like almost feels like a faux-pas socially at first glance, but the way it's handled it with such care and understanding that not having it -- especially in a show about friendship when you're going to encounter people radically different from yourself, is so important. 

7/10 - Gimme a spin off of Zecora backstory, pls.

Pinkie Pie up on the table with her forehoofs in the air and panting heavily after her...musical number...is literally one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen. 

Who would have thought that Ponyville had developed a touch of Xenophobia. It should have been obvious to them that Zecora was at the furthest, a first cousin of theirs.

Zecora is an underrated character, and I think her characterization mirrors the real life prejudices humans have to deal with from time to time. I have respect for Zecora and the fact she uses her magic for healing, not wanton destruction proves that the rumours about her were unfair. This isn't the only time Pinkie Pie made up bad rumours about somepony in the show, she did it again in Luna Eclipsed, the second time she did this, did irritate me because it meant she failed to learn an important lesson about giving others the benefit of the doubt. On some level I do sympathize with Pinkie Pie's carefree innocence, she may not be able to help some of her behavior and could be ADHD related, but this is still wrong. Because the show is about Friendship, Equestria should be about helping individuals work through their problems, not inflict more pain on individuals who did not have it coming. I do imagine Equestria as this cool fictional paradise I wished I could exist in with others here who truly desired the same of their own volition, but this is not the reason why, I don't like prejudice, Zecora deserves better.
