MLP: FiM Thread 420: Aria Blazed

[Ash Kingston]

Ya know, I really liked this one. Twilight actually got to do something, Fluttershy was fairly entertaining (the miracles of not being an episode revolving around her introversion!), there were some good gags, and while it was predictable in a few spots (neither side knowing the cause of the feud, the cake being a lie), it could have been so much worse. I even respected the fact that they didn't know who Twilight was, because they're in the middle of Buttcoitus, Nowhere.

Anyone notice how Twilight seems to be developing an ego? Don't know if it's on purpose but she's throwing around the, "I'm the Princess of Friendship!" thing a lot lately.

Seems to coincide her marginalised role in this season, possibly.

That's almost exactly my thoughts on this episode as well, a good solid 8 out of 10.

[Krazee]

I know it's late but I give the last episode a 6 and I give the latest episode a 1

It felt like it should have been a filler comic issue rather than its own episode

[Ash Kingston]

...so, I haven't kept up with the comics, what's this about a siege on the Crystal Empire?

Currently the Crystal Empire is in control by the resurrected King Sombra who was brought back to life by his childhood friend, Radiant Hope.
She assembled a group of villains (well, some of them) consisting of Queen Chrysalis and the Changelings, Iron Will, the Flim Flam Brothers and Lightning Dust who helped her in stealing the Crystal Heart and buying her enough time to give new life to Sombra.

Currently Celestia and Luna have been turned into stone, the mane cast and Shining Armor are in a cage and only Cadance is on the loose.

Dammit Lapis! Nikki Heyman, you need to control him better!

I regret nothing

Fluttershy must have taken a long time to teach them how to read...

Aw dang forgot about the german dub of maud pie running on tv today. i wonder if the voice actress manged to nail mauds voice right

What Rarity would have said: "Oh Opal, these are the ugliest ponies I have ever met..."

[Eunös ✈]

Good mornings and other stuff

Exciting times, off to the Airport Hotel later today.. Will be up in the air in less than 24 hours time (Hopefully these Scottish Hurricanes stay up there otherwise it's going to be a bumpy take off)

Last minute packing and paranoia despite double, triple, quadruple checking I have everything coming up.

But before all that.

Let's complete Pony Rumble V's line up..

If you've followed the last 2 days, there honestly is no Big mystery here

Let's go!

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}

G3 baby Scootaloo makes her Pony Rumble debut, Oh my god what horrors have just been released?, Will Baby Scootaloo annoy everyone by winning.. God we hope not but find out in January to see if this is the case D:!

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}Nah, I'm just f***ing with ya ;D

[Eunös ✈]

Laptop, You are not welcome to freeze on me after I've typed shitloads in the description.. f*** you, now I have to do it again and I bet it wont be as good 2nd time.. dickhead of a machine.

Anyways

Let's try this again

We complete the Pony Rumble V line up (Unless they make this a 40 Rumble than 10 more Ponies will be brought in) with the reveal of our 30th participant.

If you've done the math than you probably already know.

But here we go nonetheless.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}

Joining her fellow dazzlings, The idiot of the group Sonata will join them in this Pony Rumble, Also brought into this universe and transformed into the Pony, Sonata actually seems to like the change more than her 2 other colleagues, None the less this Pony Rumble is the 1st of a Plan to take over equestria, With all 3 of them competing they have a 3 out of 30 chance of being successful, Sonata is not the brightest but that could in a way work to her advantage, Victory could be awful news for Ponyland.. Or maybe not, who knows?, Will Sonata be the last Pony Standing when all is said and done?, Join us in January and you shall see.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}

So there you have it, that's your Pony Rumble V line up.. Thoughts?, Opinions?

I must admit it's getting tougher choosing the line ups, There are Ponies I really wanted to stick in there but there is just no room, For Pony Rumble 6 I think I will definitely have to introduce the Qualifying system.. But for now, here is your line up

(But seriously though it saddens me deeply that I had to sacrifice Apple Fritter this time around )

[EoE: Workin On My Night Cheese]

It'd be easier if Royal Rumbles were capped at, like, 100 people. Then you could put in everyone you want.

DAZZ-LINGS ROCK!

[Eunös ✈]

100 Pony Rumble would be awesome.

But I don't think WWE has 100 people

and if they do most are injured, fallen out, or wiped from history.

Or 108 like this one battle royal from Japan Nikki Heyman and I watched. Featuring Tajiri, Kai En Tai, a blow-up doll...and one very flirtatious homosexual wrestler.
