@Ako Voice modulation no doubt. I didn't think it was Brian Drummond at first until I discovered he was replying to a tweet that Andrea Libman had posted on Twitter about him playing Seabreeze.

My issue with I Ding Sea Breeze's gender was his muzzle. Looked far like a mare's nuzzle than a stallion's. I understood the squeaky voice was due to size.

Brian Drummond's been in pony since season one. Notably as Mr. Cake and Ahuizotl.

As for Twilight's transformation spell, I was mostly "wow, did not expect that" than "ew, they're trying to sell me mane 6 breezies".

I had the transformation spoiled, so I went straight to the second thought.

but the episode made it look like Seabreeze was the only one who wanted to go home at all

At first I thought it was building to a reveal that the Breezy home planet is not actually that great a place. Especially that one moment where Sea looked sad about going home.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IS BEST FANFIC

I saw a pony version someone did, though I haven't actually read either.

So someone pointed out that Twilight's new spell seems to have upgraded her magic aura a bit.

I noticed that too. It's not the first time she's had multiple layers to the aura, but it's the first time they've been different colors that I can recall (since the originall took place in season 1 back when magic was all different)

they should see an episode of g1 and just how much merch-pushing got in the way of characterizatiion and a balanced cast.

I remember a friend descrbing one scene in G1 as 'they loose their castle, so they go around looking at different toysets, I mean new houses to move into'.

Which just shows how much range the dude has. Seems to be an Ocean thing that your required to voice a whole cast on your own.

I'm not asking for a link, just if anyone knows how long it took them.

I don't remember. It's about 300megs, so not instanteous. I just left it and came back.

What I'm really wondering is if they made the source code available anywhere.

Hmm, my only real thought about the last scene was "well I guess we gotta pad this out somehow". Otherwise, I just thought the episode was kind of bland with nothing really wrong with it otherwise.

Seabreeze is a dude, apparently. I thought she was female too. She certainly doesn't sound male.

wild mass guess Seabreeze is a transgender female to male that identifies as lesbian, obviously. The foal's adopted. wild mass guess

@Dark: If Seabreeze is a Ft M, how could he identify as a lesbian?

Or is this like an Eddie Izzard, 'Lesbian in a Man's body' thing?

... Lesbian in a Man in a Woman's Body?

Okay finally saw the ep.

I now have no problem with the Breezies being a possible excuse to create a new toy line. They served more than that in the story. .......... NOW I have a problem with the MANE 6 Breezies being a possible excuse to create a new toy line!!! >:

I think that shininess from Rarity when she took her cloak off... kinda made my brain go into naughty thoughts. :D

Very good new episode, with a moral that I wish more people with small dogs would learn. Sadly, some people forget that small dogs need to be trained too, and it gives them a bad reputation that I hate because I LOVE Pomeranians and don't like it when they get branded as an entire breed of obnoxious spoiled brats when the problem is the humans who think it's "so cute" when the tiny dog acts growly or give in when the dog is begging for food. I know it's hard to resist a dog's puppy eyes (that's where the term comes from, and dogs are experts at it), but it's even harder to get a dog to STOP begging once they've gotten the idea that they can sometimes get scraps of your food. I've found that out the hard way in my 20 years of living with dogs, especially with our first dog, Aggie, who I don't think ever learned to stop begging (although it seems to be harder for my parents to avoid giving in to the dogs begging than it is for me, and it shows with the way the dogs beg from them more than me). Plus, of course, the flip side that speaks to me as a dog person is that simply scolding them isn't enough, you also need to show them love and praise them when they are being well-behaved (as in giving them positive reinforcement).

When they said portal, I intially wondered if the breezies lived in the EQG verse.
