YMMV / Ask Twixie Genies

Go To

  • Broken Base: Twilight's Disney Death in "Rough Diamond". Some found it an effective Tear Jerker, while others considered it a contrived Ass Pull done solely to dole out drama and shock value to an already pretty dramatic arc.
  • Genius Bonus: The incantation that Twilight is tricked into saying in order to become a genie ("Sumere volo locum tuum") is in Latin. If you can translate it, you'll know why Twilight should never have said it.
  • Moe: Trixie has rather moe-ish qualities at times, which are only further enhanced when she puts on glasses to read the mail. Sadly, Rarity took those glasses back.
  • Portmanteau Couple Name: Never used in the comic itself, but it's in the title. Twixie = Twilight + Trixie.
  • The Producer Thinks of Everything: Genie bottles (at least for pony genies) display the cutie mark of their occupant, and this remains consistent throughout the comic even when genies are being transferred to and from bottles. Notably, Twilight and Trixie's shared bottle has a cutie mark that's a combination of both of theirs (you can even see it changing after Twilight moves in), and when Trixie is later taken from the bottle, the cutie mark reverts back to Twilight's.
