SapAppleJamer 7 January 10, 2014 Share January 10, 2014 This episode was confusing as can be. I liked watching it ok but i'm not rushing back for more. Digibrony makes an iterating point in his video out op ponyvrese episode 2. He states that sence we never see Rainbowdash recover from hitting her head at the beginning of the episode the whole episode is a concussion induced dream. This would have saved to episode for me. I would have absolutely loved this episode had this be cannoned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winona the Dog 1,984 January 11, 2014 Share January 11, 2014 Digibrony makes an iterating point in his video out op ponyvrese episode 2. So you heard it too? I can kind of agree that maybe a fantasy episode where nothing actually happened would've either made or break the episode so I guess it wouldn't matter if the whole episode as a dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have absolutely loved this episode had this be cannoned. The idea that it's all a concussion-induced dream seems awfully far-fetched to me - if that was what the writers intended, they did a poor job of conveying that, IMO. Little animation cues would have helped, such as a screen swirl or fog in part of it to indicate we weren't in reality anymore, or some sort of wake-up at the end, etc. Also, if that HAD been the case, was the fact that Rainbow ended up on the cover of the next book also part of that dream sequence? (In which case we ended the whole episode still in the dream?) To be honest, while I like the "it was just a dream" idea more than what I believe they actually did, the idea that they simply made a bad choice sounds more realistic. Unfortunately.

Singe 2,111 January 13, 2014 Share January 13, 2014 (edited) I enjoyed the episode. Daring had some awesome lines like "Now, Ahuizotl, you know I love you, but I can't give you the ring 'til I've properly proposed.". The other one where she gave the cat a black eye. Rainbow Dash was good in this episode. Edited January 13, 2014 by Singe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilightlicous 53 January 17, 2014 Share January 17, 2014 It was pretty good. Episode include alot of Indiana Jones refferences.

Hanibal94 218 January 18, 2014 Share January 18, 2014 I liked the episode. Action, hidden Easter Eggs (such as Rainbow making a Derpy face on the book cover at the end), and surprises such as Daring Do being real, or Twilight losing a nerd fight to RD (WOW!). The only bad thing I have to say is: Why didn't the Mane 6 try to help Daring Do when she was being attacked in her house? I know Daring said she didn't want any help, but they should have at least done something after the thugs grabbed the ring and were getting away - instead, they all just stood there and let it happen. What the heck? This is not a signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance64 7,053 January 19, 2014 Share January 19, 2014 Gave this episode another shot last night, and you know what? It's really not that bad! It's a really fun action-filled episode actually, I think even non-bronies/fans would enjoy it. I guess nervousness really got to RD here too, she really wasn't as annoying as I thought she was the first time I watched this, realizing just how star struck she really was by Daring. Plus, Twilight and Raibow Dash arguing about their Daring Do fandom is just fantastic social commentary on our part, as is Dash's impatience for the next book coming out. The rest were a good supporting cast too. Also, one of the best jokes ever with Ahuizotl asking for the ring from Daring, can't believe I forgot about that! Overall an amazing episode actually, I kind of love it now. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quill Waver 1,408 February 8, 2014 Share February 8, 2014 I love episodes that have references in them, and this one was no exception! As could be expected, I would say this episode was a solid 8/10. While it was nice, there are some things that I don't quite agree with as being possible. (Prepare for hate comments, Asterian...) I do not see how the Mane Six -- or at least Twilight and Rainbow -- didn't spot the similarities between "A. K. Yearling" and Daring Do. Even past the glasses and other garments, they should have guessed by her eyes and coat color at least.By the same token, how does a beard of leaves fool a band of thugs? "Time is just an illusionary factoid that all natural things are bound to. It has the power to crumble even the mightiest of mountains into little more than dust, yet if it is an illusion, why is this so? Because people waste a lot of time, only wishing they had more. Little do people realize an inescapable fact: Time governs those who wish they had more of it. By wishing you could use it better, you govern time, and you can get all the time you'll ever need." — Starfall, Quillwaver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pixel Stick 927 February 23, 2014 Share February 23, 2014 (edited) I haven't taken the time to re-watch this episode yet, but as of Episode 15 (Twilight Time), it's been relegated to "worst episode of the season" for me, with Twilight Time being a close second. :/ (And these are both Dave Polsky episodes - coincidence?)

Firehearted 120 February 28, 2014 Share February 28, 2014 I just noticed something! Look at the image below! Look the book RD has at the end. Google it. You see RD has a baseball hat. Now look at the temple behind them. Baseball hat and temple? Hat = Short Top from Temple of Doom. That hat reminds me so much of him. Yet another referance to Indiana Jones! 1 Aloha from sunny and/or rainy Hawaii!

True Rarity 1,240 March 8, 2014 Share March 8, 2014 This episode was quite interesting, though it seemed obvious that A.K. Yearling was Daring Do from the beginning. And that face Rainbow made... Also, at the beginning of the episode, when Rainbow Dash was excited because the book came out in only four more months, she reminded me a lot of myse-Wait, the next Heroes of Olympus book comes out exactly seven months from today?! Ohmigoshohmifoshohmigoshohmigoshohmigoshohmigoshohmigosh... *ahem* Anyway, it was exciting and I hope to see more Daring Do in the future. Favorite part: When the Mane Six played keepaway with the ring. Favorite line: "Oh Ahuizotl, you know I love you, but I can't possibly give you the ring until I've properly proposed."

Pastel 7,630 March 30, 2014 Share March 30, 2014 It was excellent, the sequel of my favorite episode..........until we find out the writer of Daring Do is Daring Do. It doesn't make a lot of sense, that the Daring Do universe exists for real... I prefer when it was pure imagination. Great episode, but this bothers me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen 1,387 April 9, 2014 Share April 9, 2014 Daring Do is very tricky and amazing, it do to help with Rainbow Dash to get all the rings out in the temple (the last one ring left is very heavy) before the temple is going collision in the near end of the episode. I think it's awesome, though! Princess Twilight Sparkle always do legendary stuff with magic in Equestria.

Button_Mash 16 April 18, 2014 Share April 18, 2014 Rainbow Dash beat Twilight in a nerd-off. 2 Wanna know why I'm Button Mash. Because he is literally a ponified version of me. His life, his likes, his personality, his style, everything. Honestly, when I first saw Button's Adventures I first suspected that they were stalking me ((okay, that's not entirely true. First I laughed at how much he resembled me, and then I jokingly considered the possibility to myself, only to realize it can't be true since Jan isn't anywhere close to where I live and couldn't find out this stuff about me)) All credit goes to Kyoshi and his amazing artistic skills: If you want to find me on deviantART, I'm over there as AskButtonMash. I'm also on WCRPG (you can guess my name for that site) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayvid_Reader 77 May 12, 2014 Share May 12, 2014 I loved this episode!!! I loved having Daring Doo in the episode as a real pony! It's always epic to see that Rainbow Dash looks up to someone even with an ego as big as hers is. I also loved how it pretty much showed that no matter how great you think you are you can always use help once in a while. My favorite was the fact it showed that no matter how awesome/great/perfect you think someone is they have flaws that makes them just as pony as you. 1 Education is the best weapon against stigma.
