I know, the way they animate the expressions seems different.

I'm going to rate the episodes out of ten. My ratings must always have the mean of 5 so I'll be changing them around as we watch more episodes.

The Mare In The Moon 4/10
The Elements of Harmony 6/10

Didn't feel all that different to me.

Or maybe I just don't have the eye for such things.
Are you not entertained? Is that not why you are here?

Nightmare Moon is back on top for favourite villain in my eyes.

It kinda reminds me of Chang-E only that time it was Chang-E's own confounded fault.

Also they've gotten better with the parallex scrolling

Okay, was it me or did Twinkle Shine sound a bit snobbish when she said the line about being more interested in books than friends?

looked a bit flatter, more stiff

could REALLY tell with the background ponies, they just stood still or cycled the same small animation loop over and over. I mean it's still amazing, but Season 2 just took it even further

[up] not really, she understood books, she didn't understand freinds.

Well, she kinda was. That was the whole point.

To some point I still hold that Twi has bad memories of being bullied and also avoids socialising to evade suckups who want to curry favours with Celestia's Faithful Student. She certainly isn't hopeless in society because Shiny and Cadence looked after her.

How are you guys noticing all this stuff? (More to the point, why can't I?)

We need a proper flashback episode for the whole Nightmare Moon saga.

With hindsight it's clear Twi at that point was still sour on socializing after being bullied in school.

Yeah, it did a good job of introducing the characters, but that also meant that there wasn't a lot of room to spend on the plot proper, hence why Nightmare Moon ends up getting taken out rather easily.

I doubt she was ever bullied, at least not in any overt way she would notice. Hell would YOU mess with your God-princesses favorite student?

So... the one with the changelings had the benefit of not having to reintroduce everyone?

yeah, it had more time to build up the tension, lay the foundations and just have more plot, less expostion / character introduction.

For clarity, I was talking about this line:

Twinkleshine: Does that pony do anything except study? I think she's more interested in books than friends.

[up] yeah a bit. But also just normal puzzlement over somepony that you don't understand.

@Sera: I suspect she was bullied at some point before entering Celestia's tutelage, or least before ponies realized she was the Princess's protege.
