Anthro Flutters eating a cookie

Disclaimer: I liked the episode, I just didn't think it was as good as expected.

Here's why.

Way about half a साल ago, at a टट्टू convention, I'm sure most if not all of आप are aware of the animatic that was shown there; the animatic for the premiere song of this episode: "I'm just a pony."

Now, that was a RAW version of the song. untouched द्वारा any final edits as far as I knew.

In that raw form, however, there was a VAST amount of emotion behind it. It felt powerful, it felt pure, it was simply amazing.

And that right there sums up why I wasn't too invested into this episode: It didn't live...

After इंद्रधनुष Dash briefed me on my assignment, Nikki went in for her briefing.

Nikki: So, what is my अगला assignment?
Rainbow Dash: I assigned Sean to watch out for any suspicious activity in Ponyville. I want आप to do the same thing in Canterlot. If आप find any ponies working for ISIS, kill them.
Nikki: Will do.

Meanwhile, I was at Sweet सेब Acres with Applejack.

Sean: *Watching a part of town with binoculars*
Applejack: आप should take a break. If आप look through those things too long, you'll ruin your eyesight.
Sean: Okay. *Puts away binoculars* Nothing interesting is happening anyway....
