Odd page topper is odd.

Is it just me, or does this season have a disturbingly high number of Naughty Tentacles incidences?

Awesome episode.

Finally, we have more pics of Flutters in that adorable explorer's outfit.

Was I the only one who thought she looked like she was headed to a Daring Do convention?

And the first of the epic Tatzlwurm art surfaces.

I expect the fandom to ride this pony hard, and will be very disappointed if it doesn't.

Yeah, there have been a crapton of tentacles this season. Case in point. Not sure why Sibsy gets blamed, though.

Also, The real reason Flash Sentry appeared.

No idea.

The only thing I know of that Sibsy herself actually took 'blame' for creating was Twi-cane.

Of course! But it's the Dune crossovers I'm really going to have a hard time waiting for.

The Fremen could work as griffons, I suppose. it would be an interesting spin if the bene Gesserit were in fact alicorns, using methods to push the pony form to it's potential. And the Kwisatz Haderach could be their attempt to create a male alicorn.

NOTE: this ep reveals more of the world-building. We have another Starswirl image (abite, another illustration), and Equestria's edge, or at least one of them, is uninhabited in a mountain range and full of dangerous creatures.

I wonder if Daring Do's world is actually outside of Equestria. Maybe there's a whole wilderness out there.

Well, going by the map in Daring Don't, it seemed to be pretty close to the border.

Well, in Alpine European folklore, the Tatzelwurm was said to be a stumpy lizard like creature that resembled a cat with the end of a serpent with two stumpy legs that half walked, half slithered and was said to spit poisonous goo that stunned and disoriented it's prey .Just if anyone was curious.

Also, this could be taken to mean that the further away from Equestria you are, the more wild and untamed areas become, until you find civilization. So there could be a lot of chaotic land along the way where Cadence and Twi went.

Yeah, their Taztlewurm seems to be pretty far from the mythological version. It's more like a sandworm than anything.

Changelings, windigos, now the tatzlwurm. What's with the writers and lifting monster names while turding on the concepts? Don't get me wrong, the new monsters are awesome, but would it hurt them to be faithful to a legend for once?

Edit: I've never seen Tremors, is it worth watching or is it stupid?

Ahuizotl is pretty faithful to the mythological concept, if a bit exaggerated.

Some mythological concepts are relatively close. I guess some they just change because they liked the name for a pun or they want to do something diffeent.
