    I thought Rockhoof's story in how he suddenly gotten stronger was a bit of a deus ex machina. But I think the moral of the story is that through his sheer will and determination, he uncovered his new strength. As for Mist Mane's culture, it's actually more Chinese than Japanese. As for the curved horns, it's actually very inspired by the "qilin", the mythical Chinese "unicorn", although the qilin has more of an antler than an actual horn. I think I like the moral of Mist Mane's story the best: True beauty lies within us when we take love and share it with the world. and yes, I agree with you on Rarity's character development. She's actually my favorite character out of all six of them, but I really enjoy seeing how much she grew. Like you said, she used to be easily disgusted, but now she's learning from her mistakes and saw beauty in little things.

    Ah nice this was fast! :D
    I was so happy seeing the IDW comics get integrated in the show. About time it happened! And Mistmane was my favourite. She's definitely based on ancient East Asian culture, but especially ancient China's, it would seem. And as a person of Chinese descent, that makes me extremely happy!
    The unicorns there also appear to be based on the qilin, a Chinese unicorn that can look like it's half-dragon, with antlers and curved horns. 👌
    My only concern was people mistaking it for being only Japanese-inspired, since a lot of people seem to forget China's rich history and how it served as inspiration for both Korea and Japan.

    • @sylvette.astoria
      @sylvette.astoria 7 лет назад +11

      kuku88 as a Chinese Indonesian myself I really am pleased that mistmane's legend explores on the Asian culture, design, and especially that qilin-kirin design because it's based on the eastern Chinese unicorn! I mean the music and inclusion of dragons is clearly Chinese and sable spirit was wearing black and red which are Chinese imperial colors! And I have to agree with you there, usually China gets overlooked compared to Japan so hopefully this episode can bring more recognition to the Chinese culture:)

  • @FoxNinja4000
    @FoxNinja4000 7 лет назад +10

    Hey Applegeek. I think the unicorn with a curved horn that you are thinking of but can't remember is King Sombra. He had a curved horn just like the unicorns from Rarity's story except his horn is also red while the rest of him is a dark gray and black color. King Sombra is the only unicorn I've seen with a curved horn in MLP until now. (I don't remember any others.)
    Sometimes legends are based on real life events but over generations after being told many times the facts are clouded with exaggerations. I haven't read the comics but I'll try to check them out later. However for now this is what I think.
    Rockhoof somehow being able to grow not only in size but also strength reminds me of when Tirek stole everypony's magic. Clearly when Rockhoof was trying to save his village he somehow tapped into his earth pony magic and unlocked his true power. (maybe the light was meant to originate from Rockhoof's body and not the shovel. You know to show him unlocking an earth pony's true potential but perhaps the animators just animated it wrong.)
    Mistmane was an interesting character and her mane and tail flowing on its own only strengthens my believe that if a pony's mane and tail flow that it means they are very powerful. Heck the comics show Celestia and Luna to be far stronger than the show lets on. It's just the plot requires for them to seem weak to make the mane 6 look good and if given the chance they probably win a fight. Saber Spirit (That's what she was called right?) looked like an adult unicorn version of Scootaloo after she was returned to normal.
    Flash Magnus looks familiar to me. He has an orange coat color with blue eyes but a red mane and tail. Oh I know! Just change his mane and tail color from red to blue and make his cutie mark a blue shield with a lightning bolt and replace his armor with gold colored crystal guard armor and guess who you get? Another Flash, Flash Sentry! I believe Flash Magnus is Flash Sentry's ancestor and that Flash Sentry looked up to his ancestor and was probably even named after him due to the similar appearance. I also believe Flash became a member of the royal guard in order to live up to his ancestor's legacy. (I personally hope we get some character development on both the human and pony Flash Sentrys.)
    Loved the reaction, keep up the good work.

    This was a pretty fun episode; I love the lore that they brought with this episode it was a lot of fun. Also nice continuity there with the last time they went camping, that's always fun to see. Rarity's story was probably my favorite, which is weird since Rainbow is my favorite character; but Rarity's story just resonated with me in a certain way. But Rainbow's story was definitely my second favorite story. Applejack's story was fun as well, but I just personally preferred Rarity and Rainbow's story myself. But all three were good. Also the moments with Rainbow and Scootaloo were just adorable, loved them! Great reaction and can't wait for more! XD.

    I truly enjoyed how this episode explores the legends and expands on the background culture of the ponies! Mistmane in particular is my favorite. Her Asian (Chinese and Japanese fusion, but especially ancient Chinese) background, horn design that's probably inspired by the Chinese unicorn 'qilin', and the moral behind her story with her sacrifice and ability to see inner beauty within things..... It's no wonder it's rarity's favorite legend, she takes after mistmane in her beauty and generosity! "Beauty isn't everything, but it has the power to make ponies smile" is a wonderful and powerful line:) it's also a good thing to see the sisters bond develop so well this episode! I can't wait to see more future reactions from you applegeek! :D

    Again, great commentary as usual. I agreed with everything you said in your commentary. As someone who does struggle with PTSD, I think you in right in Scootaloo being more traumatized and reliving a very fearful & impactful event in her life from the last camping trip. Rainbow & Scootaloo's sisterly interaction were fantastic. Loved aeeinthat side of Dash. Mistmane's legend was also my favorite of the three. I definitely saw the cultural influences and the unicorn horns front Mistmane's time could very well be based on a katana like you said, I can see it now myself. And Torch said himself that he has been Dragon Lord for a very very long time, so that very well may have been him.
    I love watching your videos, and thank you again for doing what you do. Take care, Applegeek Sir!

    Here's an idea I had and mentioned in another videos comments.
    We have seen a almost total lack of Diamond Tiara since she was redeemed. I always thought Starlight would make a great older sister type figure to her. God knows with a mother like Spoiled Rich, she could use one.
    And it would continue the tradition of Starlight gaining the Friendships of all the redeemed villians/antagonists. And bring DT back into being an actual character in the show again instead of just a background pony. Seriously, I think they missed a lot of potential storylines with a redeemed DT.
    I think I just thought of a good premise for an episode for the CMC that would finally have them interact with Starlight, while bringing Diamond Tiara back into being a secondary character instead of a background one. Picture this:
    Knowing about how poor a female role model Spoiled Rich is, the CMC decide to help find a older sister type role model for Diamond Tiara. Heck, maybe DT asks for their help in finding one because she is envious of the relationships they have with their older sisters. Or even make it a friendship problem given to them by the map. After going through several choices that fall flat (Pinkie Pie, Derpy, Fluttershy, ect) a chance encounter with Starlight helps them realize how much in common Starlight has with DT. And maybe Glimmer Glam is also envious of the family connections the rest have (We have no mention of Starlights family). DT and SG hit it off. Then you see them doing things with the other three Older sister/ younger sister combos.
    I always got this sense Starlight was either never really close to her family (neglect?) Or might have no family at all (Orphan?) It would explain why it seems nopony comforted her when Starburst left. That she really had nopony else.
    Or maybe I think to much into this. :)

    You know I don't know why this episode is really that hated. I've read a lot of comments saying how this episode was useless, not needed, and even outright hated by some.
    Honestly, I found this episode quite enjoyable and I love how the sister Dynamics between the three pairs has only grown stronger with each season. And I like how Scootaloo hasn't truly gotten over her fears in just that one episode; it makes her so much more relatable, just like with Fluttershy.
    I absolutely love the Legends. I haven't read the comics but as a standalone each story was interesting for what they were. They reminded me of the shorts that Disney made a few some odd years ago.
    We got to see three different types of cultures that Equestria might have to offer and a little world-building is always a welcome endeavor. A nice breath of fresh air is what I would call this episode.
    Also, nope spider is just NOPE! Flying spiders, no, an entire swarm of flying spiders . ...there truly is no God in Equestria.

    This season 7 is rocking really hard. So far I loved all the episode. It's really going to top all the previous seasons. I wonder if Chrysalis is going to be in the finale.
    About this episode, I liked it. Lot of world building in it, great stories. I also loved how in each stories the main protagonist basically represents the storyteller's element. Like example: in the first story the protagonist was honest to his village/hometown, like Aj. The second one was showing off her generosity by giving all of her beauty power to her enemy, like Rarity. In the last story the main protagonist was loyal enough to risk his owm life just to save two of his friend, like RD. So yeah, overall this was a great episode.

    Wonder how old these stories are. They each showed a story from their tribe, and from what looked to be a time before the windigoes.
    As the same time I wonder if these three, or at least the later two were their generation's holders of Generosity and Loyalty?
    I guess the big question about Mistmane would be if her country still exists and she came to Equestria or Platinum's nation later or if all Unicorns used to have that curved horn back in the day and that was Platinum's nation pre-windigos.
    Mistmane also reminded my of the Story of Gaia Everfree, just leaving flowers over gem dust in her wake. I wonder if their is a connection there somewhere.

    42:52 I was about to point that out too, because I've seen the whole Loyalty thing going on in Rainbow Dash's story, as well a s Generosity in Rarity's story. But Applejack story kinda breaks out from the pattern, because I couldn't see anything about Honesty in her story, so I gave up that idea entirely. (It either works for all of them or the theory is wrong.) Unless you have some ideas where's the Element of Loyalty hidden in Applejack's story perhaps? :q

    • @adolfodef
      @adolfodef 7 лет назад +2

      I think it has more to do with Integrity (one of the 3 Celestia´s "older elements" from S3E13).
      -> The idea was to fight for the place you live, because if nopony push themselves through the hardships of seemingly imposible tasks, miracles will never happen [it reminds me of the "extended" Apple Family tenacity on the Cider 6000 Flim Flam episode of Season 2].
      It is different from Loyalty in the sense that is not about protecting your family/people,, but rather what makes their life worth living for (as it was a key element in that story that the farmers had no other place to go, unlike the warriors who could fight for others in another place and took the boat).

    • @bonbonpony
      @bonbonpony 6 лет назад +3

      Yeah, the finale makes this connection between the "old" Elements and the "new" Elements even stronger, but still it doesn't explain how is strength related to honesty :q
      There's one more "connection" I'd like to point out, though: Remember the season 3 finale when Twilight got her wings and came down to Earth, and Celestia was explaining the situation to her? She said:
      "Since you've come to Ponyville, you've displayed the charity (cue to Rarity), compassion (cue to Fluttershy), devotion (cue to Rainbow Dash), integrity (cue to Applejack), optimism (cue to Pinkie), and of course, the leadership (cue to Twilight) of a true Princess."
      which sounded like a new, more virtuous, higher-level version of the Elements. Hmm....

  • @lathier
    @lathier 7 лет назад

    One thing I love about this episode is that it confirms my theory that the show is an anthology told out-of-order, and so far, the events have all taken place within a 2- to 3- year span.
    For one, the time being 3 years is much more reasonable than, say, the 7 it's taken for the show to come out. It makes sense chronologically because the CMC haven't really grown very much physically, and neither have any of the other kids.
    And then there's the actual tangible ways you can mark time, by annual events (the Summer Sun Celebration, holidays, and now this), and characters being around (Discord, Thorax [Steve]) or developing certain characteristics (the CMC with their cutie marks, Twilight's wings). There have only been two Summer Sun Celebrations, and as they said in this episode, the last time they took this trip was in the episode Sleepless in Ponyville. And this also means that the events in the EQG world correspond with timings right, but then give us a sense of timeframe of when in the show they happen.

Rarity is fairly strong for being a unicorn and she wouldn't want Sweetie to be a weak unicorn. Even if Sweetie does know an increasing amount of spells, she should also be physically adapted.

    • @sylvette.astoria
      @sylvette.astoria 7 лет назад +7

      Daniel Antony I believe so, though it's more of mistmane and the other unicorns are more than likely based on the mythical creature 'qilin' which is another name for the Chinese unicorn (it's known as kirin in Japan) which are one of the mystical creatures in ancient China. Plus the Asian setting itself seems to be a fusion of both Chinese and Japanese culture and aesthetics though the Chinese influence is particularly stronger due to the presence of dragons, music background, and architectural design. It may not be 100% precise with ancient Chinese folklore (because there are TONS of stories, mythical creatures and legends to exactly pinpoint all references that may be included) but I can say as a Chinese descent myself that there's definitely a huge influence of Chinese culture in mistmane's story setting and the unicorns are most likely based on the qilin themselves
