Pretty good, but very anti climatic.

King Sombra really wasn't even a character. :|

So, was it any good? I couldn't resist reading the thread, and I think I have an inkling of what the plot was like.

Passed with honors. Well, I quite enjoyed that, espeically the crystal ponies. So Cadance is the Crystal Princess? Neat. G3 had crystal princesses too.

Was there any moral at all? I guess Celstias thing at the end.

@The Freeman - Same here.

As far as the competence goes, I have to give it out to him for trying to do as much as he could.

Dang, it looks like hints of an ongoing plot.

Gotta say the Spike-Twilight interactions in this one were really nice.
That would be running a punchline into the ground.

Think about how Ginger feels, he must be livid right now.

Yeah, other MLP villains were more memorable. Not a bad episode, not at all; but I enjoyed others more.
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

Alright, Sombra... that was acceptably awesome. I still wish he would have had a bit more presence, but he made up an at least acceptable villain.

Luna's book of night is neat at the end, too... definitely looks like we're getting an over-the-season plot again.

Maybe the book is the Crystal Empire history book?

Ok, now to go back and read all the posts while I was watching the show.

And I need to read the old spoiler thread.

I think the biggest disapppointment with this season premiere was that we were expecting Sombra to be...... a character! It wasn't very epic this way.

Sombra might not be all dead, if a certain thing in the spoilers thread is what I think it is.

So yeah, that two-parter wasn't really all that good.

Diamond Tiara looks deep next to this villain.

What, that Sombra gets reincarnated as Trixie?

Exactly. Twilight thought it was so important that she do it all herself. It was when she decided to let others help her that things turned out well.

Sombra was a tad disappointing. He really had all the personality of a giant blob of shadow. Definitely no Discord...
I have a message from another time...

I'm banking on Sombra coming back.

#300919 from Over there. Maybe?
I was wondering why there was a book.

And yeah, Sombra was a bit lackluster. Maybe the villain wasn't the point of this one.

Twi is gonna level up!

I liked this two part premiere. However, as far as villains go, King Sombra is pretty generic in motivation and personality.

Glad I kept my expectation was low.

We saw his horn fly away as he was destroyed, but as established, even parts of him can spread, even when in pieces!!!!! He'll rise again.

Yay, Spike gets to be the hero for once.

Was it just me or was Rarity flirting with everyone today?

Sombra has let a thousand years degrade his wits, poor guy's nothing but a smoozelike shade.
