...yes. Dream Warrior Princess Luna.

That would be a great anime.

I love AJ poking holes in RD's story.

I honestly didn't like this episode much at all. The plot was predictable, Dash was an unlikable Mary Sue (and her claim of being scared as a filly didn't help), Luna felt shoehorned in, nothing really scared me save for that one Scoots face (and it still was too tame for me), and it just left me with a bad taste in my mouth. Especially Rarity.

Remember that we saw the episode from Scoot's POV more or less. OF COURSE she's gonna paint Dashie in a better light than normal :P

I can kinda understand the bits about Luna, but I really don't see how RD is a Mary Sue. Like, at all.

Yeah, predictability is never something I fault the show for. Rarity I get.

Not really. They have just enough curveballs :V

Besides I doubt many would have expect Luna to REALLY CANONICALLY rule the Domain of Dreams.

@ Super Gex

What makes you say that?

@ Rainbow

I have to say, the triple tree kick was amazing, but now I'm wondering, does this mean she's now stronger than AJ? Or is this just momentum from flying?

Bah...it's the barn all over again! tongue[lol]

I felt Rainbow was a Mary Sue because there was nothing that portrayed her in a negative light throughout the story.

yeah, the overall plot of almost every episode is rather predictable, but they execute them so well and have enough little details pop up that it rarely feels like it

[up] you really have clue what Mary Sue means do you? then again EVERYONE overuses that term to the point it's basically become "character I don't like"

Given that ending the episode any other way would have caused the fans to RAGE (seriously, there was no way that it wasn't ending with RD and Scoots being close), I can't really blame them.

@Gex: Except for the fact that for 90% of the episode she's plainly oblivious that Scootaloo is utterly terrified? That, and RD gets such a bad rap in most other episodes, seeing her be entirely nice for an episode isn't something I'd consider a problem.

Yeah, Scootaloo has always looked up to Rainbow, so the idolization isn't surprising. And RD was sort of oblivious here.

Not sure how it not being scary enough is a legitimate complaint. There's limits on how scary they're going to make an episode of My Little Pony.

You mean the fact that she was as brash and uncaring as usual for the majority of the episode wasn't enough?

@ Gex: Apart from completely ignoring Scootaloo's blatant terror?

@Apple: Obviously it's a combination of knowing martial arts, hanging around AJ, and her momentum. Also I wouldn't put it past her to target dead and brittle trees, all the easier to kick apart.

Luna likes to wink at the end of episodes.

@ ace

I guess so. I just must remember FWF and TMMDW. AJ is canonically stronger...but flying must really help.
