I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

@Crimson It's true, I cannot tell you how many times I have to refresh the page when an episode is airing.

The Mane-iac seems to be a standard Joker-style supervillain where they get regularly defeated but always come back. It would kinda weird if she was powerful enough not to be defeated.

@ Enlong, I really doubt it was the first reason. It was just, as I said, you can't have a true 'hulk-Out" moment without clothes getting shredded by the bulging muscles. it's just, not complete without that.

Honestly, Fluttershy's costume survived a lot better than Hulk's clothes usually fare.

I wonder how closely the Power Ponies actually match the mane six. I mean, the powers are all strangely appropriate, is this another Daring Do situation where they all look suspiciously similar? When did this comic come out? I get the feeling someone decided to rip off the national heroes for their comic.

Nah it was a common enough set of superhero powers, that the Mane 6 just got put into the one they best matched.

If you guys are going to be like my old forum when a new episode aired, when it was at it's height, I'll have a hard time keeping up with you guys.

Though, with the Hulk, his clothes (initially) tended o tear because Bruce Banner didn't intend to Hulk Out, so he wasn't prepared, clothing wise.

For a superhero actively usng that sort of power as an intentional weapon, you'd imagine she'd have a cosume made of some sort of unstable technobabble to compensate.

That said, it really isn't complete without the clothes tearing, no mater how much more logical it would be.

I have a message from another time...

I just caught the episode this morning. The one thing that surprised me was how much Spike's situation in the castle cleanup mirrored Twilight's in the Winter Wrap Up from season one. So I wonder why Twi didn't empathize with Spike more.

And from Spike's perspective, that about-face must have been irritating. "No, Spike, you can't read your comics. You need to be well-rested so you can help us fix up the castle tomorrow." "No, we don't need your help, Spike. Why don't you go read your comicbook?"

It might have just been because they were leaving early, not because they actually expected him to do anything.

I specified "from Spike's perspective" because Twilight probably did think there would be work for Spike to do. Until she got there and saw how the others had everything under control.

That is also true. I know my parents would do that sometimes. "You have to wake up early so we can go the X". Then we arrive at X and I sit there doing nothing for an hour.

@Japanese Teeth Same here that always happens when my mum wakes me up early for me to go to college. Story of my life right there.

Alright. Time to do Christmas shopping.

Yes, I did leave that for the Sunday before Christmas. Yes, I'm an idiot.

I was hoping to cause some mayhem with the mistletoe...

Sorry, Baldir's already dead.

Somehow that changed the program so now I can no longer launch it.

I just don't know what went wrong

Same here, it's on the 70's and raining.

Over the last day I've gone from massive storms tornado watch and flooding, to light snow.

So now I've switched avatars, and I decided to go with the best unicorn. Speaking of which, while the mane 6 are all equally awesome and adorable as well as having great designs, I can't help but think that Rarity's probably the most pretty out of any of them. I don't know, there's just something really beautiful about her design.

Well, that kind of was what the artists were going for with her design so, guess it worked.
