“Need I remind you how Nightmare Moon came about?”

Princess Celestia: “With the return of Sombra, Princess Luna and I felt it was time to reinforce the castle’s defenses”
 
Are you suggesting diverting our taxpayer money from the treasury to expand the Equestrian military budget??!
 
Princess Luna: “I said we could do it ourselves, but some ponies are a bit stubborn”
 
There’s the pony who will fight back against the military industrial complex!

@vevans0009  
Well, I’m just trying to be cautious of what I consider to be in character or not.
 
@Nightweaver20xx  
That is true. All I’m just hoping is that the ending didn’t imply things got ugly with them later on.
 
@genervt  
Yeah.

The staff is pulling all the big guns for this season: wacky faces, good lines, great interactions from lesser characters…
 
Also, if this episode can make a grown man laughs hard, I can have the best hopes for this season.
 
I´m really gonna enjoy this last season.

@Red-Supernova  
Even the best sisters can argue sometimes.

Two Best Sisters Play.

@Red-Supernova  
Well, I mean, most of the time. But they’re sisters. Sisters act like… well, sisters toward each other. Competitive and occasionally tired of the other being in their space.

@Red-Supernova  
Sounds like Stepford Wives or something. They need to act like siblings from time to time. x3

@Nightweaver20xx  
Even when they’re not in the public, I still visualized them to usually be upbeat and respectful of one another.

@Red-Supernova  
Nah, this was pretty much them when they’re not forced to be “on” for the public.

Just to clear my doubts, does anyone think Celestia and/or Luna was OoC in this episode?

@RAMMSTEIN45  

 
Yah. I am not one for TOTAL fanservice.

@RAMMSTEIN45  
So they decided to not go down the full-blown fanservice route this time  
…  
:/

@RAMMSTEIN45  
Well, in terms of serving up some delicious fanservice directly to us, yes it was. It was not episode 100, that’s for sure. But that’s not the point. This was an episode that the VAs wrote, something they wanted to do for awhile (they said as much), so I give it high marks for being quality on those grounds. So yeah, I’d say you’re probably one of the few who were disappointed by it. But you’re welcome to whatever opinion you have of it.

@PonyPon  
I mean it was a fun episode but compared to episode 100, this one was a major letdown.

Luna’s actually saying, “She who smelt it…”

@PonyPon  
Exactly what I said

@RAMMSTEIN45  
Not really.
 
But it was better than I expected.

Their sibling dynamic is increasingly adorable!
 
 
@RAMMSTEIN45  
I was expecting to be disappointed because the whole “Twilight and Shining having a sibling rivalry” synopsis seemed rather, well, sudden… but I found this episode pretty fun in the end!

Am I the only one who thought this episode was really disappointing?
