@@MotoroidARFC No, each other's safety was probably their top priority. They likely cared too much about each other to stay together and risk one of them getting injured. For them, staying with their different races was the best option to ensure that they both made it out.
Around a table as the main 6 talk about their battle. "I transformed my party cannon into a bazooka!", "I sent the Geese to attack Cozy.", "I used my perfect Lasso Skills to tie up Cozy.", "I used my great magic to confuse them.", "I used my Speed to interrupt them!" ….Rarity looks around..... "I THREW A ROCK AT THEM!" Everypony slowly looks to Rarity.... "It was a big rock...." Honestly that is literally all that went through my head. It felt very un Rarity. Not to happy that she was shown to be tired after that. I swear she had done stuff like this before and wasn't tired after it. also Marshmallow eating contest.... That wasn't subtle at all Twilight... We all know what you want to do with the marshmallow....
@TKHulk (ToonamiKusagari). I also like how Tirek was really the only team player. Not once did he give any indication he was gonna back stab them. Chrysalis was pretty blatant it was all about her and Cozy made it pretty obvious when she got Discord's magic that she would betray them the instant she was more powerful than them.
Except that he never drained Starlight or the the Mane 6 of their magic after they were caught. If he had, Starlight wouldn't have been able to distract them and give Spike and the others the chance to escape
He’s seems to be the only one who actually learned mentally from his defeat, where as Chyralis honed her individual talents and no longer relied so heavily on minions.
"Trying to summon some windigos?" HOW DID YOU CATCH THAT?! Literally *no one* saw that coming, and you called it the very instant Chrysalis started sowing the seeds of racism lmao
@@ljuc Well, yeah. I'm sure *someone* thought of that, but that's the first reaction I've seen where they weren't like "Oh shit, the windigos are back?!" lol
@@DJCosmicLatte Not a reactor so yeah, but I was talking about the wendigos not actually being destroyed back at the Hearth warming event. I did love them bringing back the wendigos though. It definitely was a great callback though. Though thought it would be something Sombra would have wanted to use. Didn't think they were just going to appear.
@@takugenji490 The hearthswarming event, if we are on the same page, was never said to DESTROY the wendigos. It wasn't really a CALLBACK the wendigos are just FACTS. If earth ponies, pegasi, and unicorns split and turn on eachother, the wendigos return until peace is restored, simple as that. Why would Sombra think of using the wendigos, as if he cares? He wants to rule Equestria, not let an untamed magic that could be trouble for HIM roam free! And they didn't just appear out of no where, cause obviously all the pony races were split up.
PhonicBoom/ CosmicLatte the only other times I can think of where he laughed like that were in his reaction to the episode Newbie Dash during the part when RD imitated Rarity, and his reaction to a video called “The Tale of Rarity” by Drowning in Horseshoes
Antonio Greene oh I’ve definitely seen those. I was just naming some specific moments off the top of my head where he basically had a laugh attack. Another one I just remembered, and this is a pretty old video of his, was his reaction to Fluttershy plays Can Your Pet
Oh god, here we go. This will be the big one !!! Rarity Dash, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your amazing reactions so far. Thanks to you, I encountered many of the fandom creations You always make me have a good laugh. I will edit this comment when you actually watch episodes but because of time difference, it will probably be lost among the others
52:15 As Tirek explained in an earlier episode, he can only drain magic from living things, thus not the magic the bell already holds. Also it seems when he drains magic it simply becomes his own, he doesn't gain unique properties of the magic (hence back when he drained Discord he didn't gain chaos magic powers), whereas Grogar's bell retains the properties of the magic it drains.
@@SuperNova_5482 It was just taking so long. I've never seen him go this long in between. I'm just so happy he can see the beautiful ending of this series.
@@phantomslay5612 He actually did upload this the same week the finale aired i think, he just had to wait out the copyright, and maybe find a good time to do the premiere
I am one of the request tier patrons, yes, but that doesn't come with anything other than me getting to choose a video for him to watch. The reaction to the finale was never published, if that's a miscommunication that's happened. RD said that he watched it nearly right away, if I recall correctly.
Those images show all the characters that had an impact on the main characters is massive symbolism. The farther back and more noticeable they are and bigger means they are the ones who had the biggest impact on their lives. Twilight image and Celestia, Luna and Candace in the back center and right in front of the princesses is Sunset Shimmer in pony form. I just realize something. Sunset Shimmer was the first villain twilight ever clashed against as an Alicorn. And sunset actually help her get used to being an Alicorn. Sunset has rightfully earn that spot.
And Sunset Shimmer is the only irrefutable evidence that Equestria Girls is canon (apart from Meghan McCarthy's word, but some people don't trust that I guess). The sirens in Shadow Play could've been explained away as "they could've been sent anywhere!", so there wasn't any real winner on either side until this episode.
@@milesedgeworth132 Moments written in the finale to support the hopes of fans is fanservice; not remotely a bad thing tho. Then again the OP was about the whole epilogue which I guess RD called fanservice in the video?
@@milesedgeworth132 its not because its an epilogue that its fanservice but the bulk of the content was fanservice because its to confirm popular ships its fanservice
Honestly Discord's plan in the finale makes perfect sense considering his thinking has always been twisted. Of course it would seem dumb to someone normal but Discord is the spirit of chaos he doesn't think like a normal person would & never has. And let's not forget that his plan was actually reforming Tirek, Chrysalis & Cozy too. If chrysalis hadn't been there or hadn't realized quick enough this finale could have gone very differently.
The way I look at it is he was trying the Celestia method of teaching without the wisdom or experience needed to do it right. Mix is his chaotic nature to life in general and while it was an interesting plan I am not surprised it failed.
Actually the way his plan failed makes perfect sense in every way, to the point it's actually a callback to his original defeat back when he was a villain. Consider this; Return of Harmony: Discord completely discounted the Mane 6 as a threat, started toying with them, and then when they managed to actually find, activate and use the Elements of Harmony on him, he stood there in shock until they turned him back to stone. The Ending of the End: Discord completely discounted the Trio as a threat, started trying to reform them, and when they managed to actually find, activate and use Grogar's Bell on him, he stood there in shock until they drained his magic.
Discord wasn't trying to reform them, he was trying to make them into a formidable force of evil for Twilight to defeat in order to gain her confidence back. He explained the whole plan himself.
1:35:32 Lyra and Bon Bon got married!!!! WHOOOOOOO!!!! And.....Pinkie got married to Cheese Sandwich, Granny Smith peacefully passed away, Flurry Heart's the new leader of the crystal empire, Rainbow Dash is the new captain of the Wonder Bolts, and the magic of friendship goes down from one generation to the next.
@Solus Digur I disagree mainly because Appledash is actually CANON. So is Fluttercord. It is ok to not LIKE the ship, as anyone is allowed to have OPINIONS, but you can't just pretend it doesn't exist and that they don't love eachother. Just saying. That's just ignoring facts, not having an opinion.
And then there's me who's still bugged that nobody acknowledges the distinct symbolism of the past, present, and future when the pillars, mane six, and young six begin to float around twilight at the ending battle.
Not only did Lyra and Bon Bon propose to each other, but their wedding was published in the Ponyville Gazette, along with the defeat of the Evil Three, and Twilight's Coronation. It is presumed that unlike Discord, when the Evil trio was 'stoned', they would not experience time passing like Discord did. So, Lyra-Bon is a thing. Discord and Fluttershy is a thing. Apple Jack and Rainbow Dash is a thing. Yona and Sandbar is a thing. Sugar Belle and Big Mac have a foal... and related to that, Applejack was wearing Grannie Smith's shawl. Gallus becomes a Royal Guard. Silverstream works at the School of Friendship. All through the last episode, you get to see just about every pony and other creature ever depicted in the series, with the notable exception of 'villains'. In the Castle scenes, you get to see new windows... one of which seems to be Flurry Heart's empowerment as an Alicorn during some feat (probably will be revealed during the Season 10 comic book series). Or her own Crowning as Empress of the Crystal Empire. To the left of the 'Young Six' window, is the one for the Pillars of Equestra. Yup, the newspaper... Derpy opens her own Muffin Shop. Lyra Heartstrings and Bon Bon's marriage. The defeat of the Evil Trio. Yup, the Gorden Ramsy pony to the left, and Saffron Salla's father from the Tasty Treats restaurant. Note that Tempest (Fizzlepop Berrytwist) is standing right next to Zecora. They would form a friendship, since both know how it feels to be 'different' from most ponies. After we see Pinkie and Little Cheese... we get a scene with Pinkie and Cheese Sandwich riding a grown up Gummy. And Little Cheese running and being hugged by the grown up Cake Twins at Sugar Cube Corner. Rarity seems to have never found her 'prince'... but she's THE fashionista of Equestria and Beyond. Rainbow Dash now has Spitfire's job as Wonderbolt Trainer, and leader of the Wonderbolts. Although during Dash's scene, we only see four Pegasai, and that's not a 'bad' thing... I would liked to see a Griffin or a Hippogriff. Starlight is Head Mare of the School of Friendship, aided by her long time friend Sunburst. And I guess also aided by Silverstream as well. The Crusaders are adults and teaching classes, and even Trixie is a teacher. We also see that Apple Bloom has on Goldie Delicious' Shawl. Ocellus and Smoulder MIGHT be a 'thing' also. Ocellus would not make fun of Smoulder's occasional liking for 'girly' things, and would and could join her in enjoying them together. So, at least a friendship there, if not more. Although only seen during the 'rainbow dance' during the final song, we all KNOW that the Octy-Vinyl ship is there. living so long together as friends and sharing a house, one can easily infer that ship sailing along nicely. Starlight Glimmer NOT being a part of the Council of Friendship is probably a good thing. She has her hooves full at the School, and could easily be called upon if direly needed. Ditto for the Crusaders, the Young Six, and any other pony or creature that is friends with the Twilight and the Throne of Canterlot. Oh, the initial scene with Spike... reporting back to Twilight... about the Abyssinian - Diamond Dog peace talks... we all know the Diamond Dogs, but the Abyssinians are Capper's race. And during the 'rainbow dance' we get a peek at Sunset Shimmer (as a pony), so both the Equestria Girls and the My Little Pony Movie are both 'cannon' as of this final episode. And finally, the Series and Final Episode end the way it all began... with the Book of Equestria. Only closing this time. Fitting, I'd say to visually cap things off like that. Just me, being me, and long winded as usual, the Frank Pony
It’s Been one hell of a ride RD, and I don’t just mean MLP. I’ve watched you experience so many amazing works of art, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Thanks for everything man, and here’s to many more amazing years 🥂
Everyone thinking he thought Lil’ Cheese was the twins daughter, when he could’ve just assumed she was another cake kid, as Mr. Cake has curly hair and a yellow coat, and Mrs. Cake has pink hair. It’s not that big of a stretch to assume he just thought she was their little sister.
Been here for many years now and don’t plan on going anywhere! It’s been amazing to see this Channel grow and evolve over the years! Here’s to all the reactions to come with the future 👍🏻
When Cozy Glow Failed at Chaos magic was hilarious, not to mention pleasing to me, because it confirmed my theories on why when Tirek first stole magic from Discord, he used it like normal, but when from the Bell it is uncontrollable. To me, tirek only eats the energy to make Logical, structured spells, like LAZERS! But the bell give the mechanics and nature of the energy, wich reacts to thought processes. Hence why Discord (and later Pinkie) were the only ones able to use Chao s even remotely close to their intented results: to Wield Chaos, One must Know Chaos, Think Chaos, BE Chaos!
Tirek steals POWER, the bell steals MAGIC. While Discord is very powerful, he also has a very specific type of magic that I believe is only wielded by him.
The thing with Discord is that he is the God of Chaos. He lives, breathes, thinks, and is chaos. In his mindset, as he explained, he thought he was doing the right thing through what he knows and is: Chaos. There was also a theory I saw where someone showed that it was plausible the real Grogar is dead. I believe the main point was a skull in the desert that was very similar to what Grogar's skull would look like. But I dunno.
He could very well have mutated into that creature after Gusty stole his bell and used it to steal his magic. Heck, that might explain why he tried to steal the Griffon's treasure. Maybe he was delusional due to the transformation and mistook the idol for his bell
5:44 *S9 E22*: Growing Up is Hard to Do 27:59 *S9 E23*: The Big Mac Question (35:46 As Equestron has said multiple times "Lyra and Bon Bon are totally together, and I am okay with that) (48:29 Nice one Applebloom) After giving some thought about it, I came to a conclusion: Big Mac and Sugar Belle might not have met or gotten married if Discord didn't betray the Mane 6 and Spike back in season 4. 50:14 *S9 E24*: The Ending of the End, Part 1 (50:57 RarityDash unintentionally foreshadowed Part 2) (55:22-55:42 This is one of the reasons why Princess Twilight and Spike are my favorite G4 duo) (1:00:04 The only success that Discord has manipulated was in "The Beginning of the End, Part 2.") (1:00:16-1:00:22 Good intentions, but not so good execution. However, it does raise the question of how this episode would have played out if Discord's chaos magic wasn't stolen). 1:11:40 *S9 E25*: The Ending of the End, Part 2 (1:18:38-1:18:48 Never say that Rainbow Dash. Also, RarityDash's prediction from Part 1 came true) (1:24:51-1:24:59 Well that's a dark moment for a show rated *Y-7*) (1:29:26-1:29:42 Chaos Pinkie is both best Pinkie and scariest Pinkie) (1:31:40-1:31:46 Both of them are right) 1:32:00 *S9 E26*: The Last Problem (which is a twist on the first problem) (1:34:07 Remember Spike, Twilight was in the exact same position over 20 years ago) (1:43:13 Once again, never say something like that, EVER) (1:46:10 Pinkie Pie is now a mother) (1:49:36 Epic and Emotional Finale music number? Epic and Emotional Finale music number) (1:50:58-1:51:16 Sunburst's Beard definitely grew, Starlight and Trixie have some nice new outfits, the CMCs look exactly like they did in episode 22. Also, they went from tutors to teachers) (1:51:28 Applejack and Applebloom are aunts, just like Twilight) (1:51:54-1:52:01 Reference to the theme song) (1:52:19 Bright Mac and Pear Butter/Buttercup)
Oh man, “The Last Problem” really was a wonderful way to close Gen 4 of MLP! Seeing every creature in their older years (not too old mind you) was very cool and I also like some of the outcomes that have taken place for the characters too. Among those highlights are Pinkie and Cheese being a married couple with a young foal of their own, Big Mac and Sugar Belle also having a kid, Fluttershy living with Discord (implying that they are a couple), and even Yona and Sandbar still being an item. It was nice to see a flashback of Twilight’s second coronation ceremony and being able to see most of our favorite characters attending it. And of course, the final song (“The Magic of Friendship Grows”) was the thing that sealed the deal with this epilogue episode. The music itself gives me “We’ll Make Our Mark” vibes and it feels SO wonderful and beautiful, enough to bring myself to tears of joy. I loved how we were able to see the majority of MLP characters that we’ve come to know in this generation from start to finish, within the backgrounds of the Mane 6 moving across the screen. The way the song ended with the melody of this show’s theme song and how we zoom out of that last shot of the Mane 6 and Spike, with the famous book from episode 1 closing up, that was pitched perfectly in my opinion. MLP FIM has been an amazing ride for me in more ways than one and I’m really glad that I was able to watch this fun TV show from beginning to end. P.S: For future reference, I’ve enjoyed your reactions to MLP, RarityDash and I thank you for that! It has been a fun ride watching this show with you and as always, I look forward to more of your content.🙂
So actually heard a few other reactors wondering what became of Twilight's old castle but remember she left it to Starlight earlier in the season and she and the other teachers still need a place to live so its obviously still gonna be needed.
A beautiful end to an amazing series. Live on RarityDash. Live on Bronies everywhere. This show is never truly gone. It's as AJ says. "It's something true to pass on down to generations to come."
Crazy how far this show has come,amazing how this finale was and man its crazy this series actually ended.never really knew anything about this show ending but that was just amazing. Always sad to see a longtime series go but yeah. Im amazed.
RarityDash. I know you don’t answer comments very often, but here goes: I never joined the MLP fandom until Season 5 was still fairly new in 2015. But what got me hooked was the introduction of Countess Coloratura and her songs. As someone good on the piano, her songs were the ones I began playing and helped reignite my skills in so long. I have to thank MLP: FiM for allowing me to start the piano again.
And at first I was confused about why tirek was against taking Discord’s magic but then I remembered he turns the magic he takes into energy to fuel his own power he doesn’t actually use it
Yeah, I noticed Raritydash confused on this part. What you said is pretty much accurate. Think of Tirek's power as using Osmose in Final Fantasy VI; you're just sucking away the target's MP for your own use. However, Grogar's Bell is more like equipping a Magicite in Final Fantasy VI; you absorb the power of the Esper to acquire the same magic they had.
Episode 22 is a good one. Though I initially thought that we’d see the CMC all grown up in the finale, it was pretty cool to see them prior to it. Their canon designs as adults are not too far off from the show accurate fan art we’ve been getting all these years. I also dig their last song together, it’s one of my favorites from the collection we already have.
Anyone else get Steven Universe: The Movie vibes from the finale? You got Twilight talking about keeping things the same, then villains with the ability to nullify attack, Twilight's personality resets to her former one as a result of learning the truth, Twilight is left alone to solve the problem, the world is set to come to an end, then once she gets her friends back, Applejack tells Twilight, "Bad things happen. No matter what you do, there's never going to be a time when everything is perfect, but that don't mean you quit trying." Then they beat the villains, and then... um, Here We Are in the Future?!
Huh, interesting when you speculated on G5 slotting in post-coronation and not the "many moons later" time, cause we got implications in the Make Your Mark series that, while it is in the distant future, it may be in an alt timeline/canon where it's just like that! 😮 After all, we did see that projection of Twilight in her non-Celestial form, warning about the rogue student stealing magic and kicking off the Unity Crystal Saga. (Ohhhh, nice name for this whole current leg of the series! I hope the series involves more than that so we have more Sagas! Like the DBZ Sagas!) 😄
when you endanger the entire timeline of equestria, as well as causing countless suffering for thousands if not millions of ponies and become the sole student of the princess of friendship, but try to turn equestria against each other and make the windigos briefly return, ending up getting turned to stone for eternity
Peppermint Swirl this old shit again? How do people manage to miss the fact that Starlight didn't mean to do any of that, and showed remorse? Whereas Chrysalis meant everything she ever tried to do and had no remorse whatsoever? How is this hard to grasp?
@@PeppermintSwirl Seriously though, I feel like context just doesn't exist in this fandom with how many apologists of straight up villains try to justify their unfounded belief in their favorite character by pointing out stuff redeemed or good characters did. Starlight didn't even KNOW travelling to the past to remove Twilight would do anything to Equestria. Once she did learn what would happen (And was convinced enough to believe it), she GAVE UP. Straight up gave up her plans of revenge to avoid harming innocents. Also, "try to turn equestria against each other and make the windigos briefly return", lol. Saying like that's something small. I like how we've ignoring that the three personally blew up the castle in Canterlot (And we have no proof that it was evacuated beforehand), and brought about a chain of events that would most likely cause most of Equestria except for small pockets to freeze to death. And for what? For comparison, Starlight did what she did because she truly believed she was doing the right thing, as crooked as it looked to sane people. Chrysalis did it because her kingdom overthrew her shitty governance and she got pissed off about it. Tirek did it because he's an entitled noble who wants to rule over everything. Cozy Glow did it for absolutely no reason except for personal enjoyment... and none of the latter three showed a shred of remorse the whole time.
I'm going to miss this show..I loved this show when I was young, and now it have ended 😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔💔💔 Goodbye My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, you're one fantastic family show ❤️
funny how equestria is usally so peaceful because if they weren't ancient horse spirits would freeze them all to death... Humans also have a similar thing with nuclear winters, but it doesn't seem that effective
The book is not a story of princes celestia but what twilight's story of becoming the leader and the book closing represents luna and celest having passed on...
1. RarityDash hit the nail on the head with this one. The CMC are a little too mature for this episode. 2. That moment with AJ hearing the story was very cute. But seriously, why isn't Starlight there? 3. Hold on a second, aren't marshmallows made out of hooves!? 4. All Blink-and-you'll-miss-it Lyrabon moments: successfully noticed!
More things: The furthest left mural has Sweetie Belle and implies the rest of the CMC are on there. That dragon giving a flower to a pony. Keeping Spike's dream alive. Gives me Blue Rose of Illium vibes. The two older ponies with Little Cheese are the grown up Cake Twins, not the parents. AJ and Applebloom are wearing Granny Smith's and Goldie Delicious's sashes respectively.
While it is true the CMCs should know better I will give them just a touch of leeway on this one, they suddenly have the ability to do stuff they have always been told "you are to young for" and lost perspective. Kind of like an 18 year old who just got a license and can finally drive anytime they want without parent or some such in the car with them. I also like that this shows how peer pressure can happen with a group of friends, Sweetie Belle obviously wanted to just wait for the next train but she got talked into going along with the other 2.
8:03 Rarity, it's been over FIVE YEARS since Twilight moved to Ponyville. Your sister and her friends aren't freaking toddlers! They're young mares. YOU, especially, should know this well since it was the moral of Forever Filly! Not to mention, HOW many times have the CMC gone off on their own and been fine? 9:12 okay, that's another audio mix up. That was just Scootaloo's previous "we know". Really? 9:37 🎶tale as old as time🎶 9:42-9:53 Gah! The CMC just went G3.5 on us for a second there! 11:54 question is, if the Flower loses a petal every time a wish is made on it, and it looks like it originally had 4 petals, who used the other 2 wishes and what for? And did you notice Scootaloo's wings are still the same size as they are as a filly? Proof she's got a disability, but not necessarily that she won't ever be able to fly. After all, if Bulk Biceps can fly with his tiny wings despite his FAR larger than adult Scootaloo size, Scootaloo should have no problems at all. 12:31 wait. How is Scootaloo's helmet still able to fit her when it was designed for a foal with a head much smaller than hers is now? 13:35 well, if nothing else, the hassle the CMC's wish caused at least resulted in Scootaloo helping that clearly stressed mother calm down and cheer up her baby. 18:02 uh... yeah, like he said, your face and mane style are kinda looking familiar AND you're a pegasus. You... wouldn't happen to have a distant relative by the name of... Cozy Glow, would you, Spur? 22:54 hello, Dorothy Gale pony. Still getting sucked into tornadoes no matter which world you're in I see. Now I understand why your last name is *Gale* 😆 Though, it is odd the CMC didn't ask too many other ponies to take them to the fair beyond their sisters, Fluttershy and Twilight. Sweetie Belle's parents, Scootaloo's aunts or even Mrs. Cake, who literally was at the fair, so could've easily taken them with her. My only guess is that they did ask other ponies, we just weren't shown them all. 29:07 huh. So either she's bi or that was back when she was still trying to understand what side of the spectrum she was on. ... Though how'd YOU find out about it, Discord? What, did you read her diary or something? 35:46 LyraBon completely canon! This ship is setting sail and can NEVER sink! 😁 And I'm not the least bit surprised they ignored all the chaos happening around them during their proposals. As their dialogue in Slice of Life suggested, they're far beyond used to it by now. Lyra casually: there's some monster attacking Ponyville. Bon Bon deadpan: what is it THIS time? Creature from The Everfree Forest? 43:07 hello, hilarious Star Trek reference 😉 49:01 hmm. I feel there's a certain unicorn missing from Sugar Belle's guest list here. 49:11 and in the exact same place too. 😁 50:49 honestly, I'm surprised he fell for that so easily. Hey, hornhead! This isn't freaking before the first Hearth's Warming! Even if it were true certain Earth Ponies are hoarding food and saying such things, they'd be in the minority, not to mention it would hardly do anything. Earth Ponies aren't the only farmers in Equestria anymore. Not to mention there's plenty of food. You're not in a freaking famine like it was back then. How this unicorn just blindly started hating unicorns after this is one of the few nitpicks I have with this episode. 53:34 oh, hey. It's the Flash Stone from G1. That could be a dangerous item in the wrong hands considering an evil Octopus used it to subjugate the creatures of Dream Valley. ... You know, reading that over just reminded me how damn weird G1 was. 🤨 54:19 I say it's Discord's own fault he got revealed and lost his magic to the bell. He had plenty of time to teleport out of Cheese Legs' mucus, but instead he flailed around as if it was out of the his power. Even still pretending to be Grogar, he could easily have broken free and avoided getting zapped by the bell. 58:05 okay, unicorns becoming untrusting of Earth Ponies or not, this is APPLEJACK, a very known savior of Equestria and good friend to the incoming new ruler of Equestria. Something tells me this guard's either always had a hidden grudge against Earth Ponies or Applejack herself for a long time and is now using the rumors Cheese Legs has been spreading as an excuse to let his true feelings dictate his actions . Twi, fire his ass once you're in charge, okay? 1:01:11 so, if I've got this right, and I've had over 3 weeks to think it over before the official airing, the real Grogar is dead and he was defeated not by Gusty the Great merely stealing his Bewitching Bell, but by stealing it and draining his magic with it, making him vulnerable and was killed by the Early Equestrians, likely in a war that had all creatures of Equestria, Griffiths, Hippogryffs, Kirin, Ponies, Dragons, Diamond Dogs, you name it. 1:02:56 you aren't sure the baby can do much? Are you forgetting this is FLURRY HEART you're talking about? 1:06:22 as I mentioned back in The Summer Sun Setback, the animators either forgot or just didn't care that when Tirek fully drains a pony of their magic, their Cutie Mark vanishes too. It's even more glaring here though, since they remembered Rockhoof's over abundance of Earth Pony magic is what gives him his massive size and losing it reverts him back to the scrawny pony he was before... yet still has his Cutie Mark. Somnambula too, when her magic is drained. 1:09:01 pot, meet kettle. 1:09:16 they missed the chance with that line in the dutch dub, so I am extremely happy they used it here 😁 1:09:41 your ass was LITERALLY saved at the last second there, Cozy. Had Cheese Legs and Tirek taken even half a minute longer to get there, Discord would've already gotten his magic back, as would the Princesses and you'd have been SO screwed, with neither of the other two likely bothering to help you because they'd have to fight everyone else because of your failure to beat them on your own, even with two Alicorns and the Lord of Chaos already out of the picture. 1:12:29 this line confused me the first time I saw this episode, but then I realized, after the throne was destroyed by the overload of love energy back in season 6, it's properties were altered to effect all magic, not just everything other than Changeling Magic. Plus, Cheese Legs doesn't only have Changeling Magic anymore. With a third of the real Grogar's magic merged with her own magic and coursing through her body, she is now just as vulnerable to the magic canceling effects of the shards as any other non Changeling even if it still drained all but Changeling Magic. A nice detail to include that one wouldn't know unless they've had a long time to try and understand the lore already established. Plus, it also helps hint that the Changeling Kingdom was originally Grogar's kingdom, as he was all about draining other's magic, which is exactly what the throne does. 1:14:45 this is the first time in the show anyone other than Scorpan is mentioned from Tirek's family by name (we don't know who his Gram Gram is, so...) ... which then asks the tricky question of whether or not his story from the Fiendship is Magic comics is canon or not. The Changelings and Sirens issues of those comics clearly are no longer canon (the latter thanks to their banishment being shown in the season 7 finale and the former because we've actually seen the Changeling Kingdom in the season finale before that and it was NOTHING like in the comic), and likely not Sombra's either, as his personality is VERY different in the show compared to what it was in that comic. 1:15:01 wow. It occurred to me watching reactions, Starlight breaking out so the rest of the Mane 6 and Spike can get away, and in turn eventually lead to the 3 villains' defeat, truly is all Tirek's fault. And not simply because he took Discord's obvious bait by using Tirek's daddy issues, but also because he didn't bother to drain Starlight of her magic before they locked her up. Wow. The most competent of the villains, the one who kept pointing out what they logically should be doing throughout the whole episode, is the reason they lost.
Yeah. Cmc have had responsibilities now and although this kind of behaviour would definitely be characteristic of the younger cmc this is definitely a stretch.
Same reason I watched all the leaks quickly... though I did put them off for a week since I was still trying to adjust to having moved shortly before the leaks happened
1:17:18 man, Sugar Belle is really lucky she and Big Mac already got married two episodes ago instead of after this one. With all the animosity the Earth Ponies are feeling towards the unicorns and pegasi right now, if she weren't a member of the Apple Family, I don't think she'd have been safe in Ponyville. But, since she is, nopony is willing to touch her. I mean, would you wanna risk angering Big Mac? Because I sure as fuck wouldn't. Anypony who'd go after *Big Mac's* wife now would have to be beyond idiotic or they have a death wish. 1:18:34 okay, yes, Twilight, you're kind of right regarding THIS season... but how can you say NOTHING you've ever done matters? You defeated Nightmare Moon and in turn freed Princess Luna, reuniting her and Celestia after a thousand years of being separated. You defeated Discord back when he was evil, no small feat as it has been hammered in again and again since season 3 that he is the most powerful being in the Universe. You helped Cadance and Shining Armour defeat not only Cheese Legs but Sombra too. You stopped Sunset Shimmer and set her on the right path. You stopped Tirek after he'd absorbed ALL the Alicorn Magic in Equestria. You saved Sunset Shimmer's world from the Sirens. You saved Equestria from an unforeseen end had Starlight's village ever expanded to Canterlot and the Princesses' Cutie Marks get taken, thus killing everything with the end of the day and night cycles. You saved time and space itself from being ripped to pieces by Starlight. You were able to stop the Pony of Shadows and banish him forever while also managing to free Stygian from it. You cannot say NOTHING you've done ever mattered just because of two instances of a set up for you to win. 1:21:50 yeah, that couldn't have been more obvious a reference to Pinky and the Brain besides having Neighsay say it 😏😆 1:22:22 😑 no. You'd be frozen to death along with everything else, Cheese Legs. 1:25:35 AVENGERS... Assemble. 1:30:27 ya know, it's probably because she's still a filly, but I almost feel bad for Cozy. Almost. 1:32:19 Fun fact: Apacinians are Caper's species, so Spike was literally making peace between cats and dogs 😆 1:34:20 that stained glass window is sadly the closest we get of seeing an older Flurryheart. 1:35:32 they are MARRIED! It is done. Signed, sealed and delivered. The ship has not only sailed, it is far off to sea 😊 1:41:09 honestly, this part hit way too close to home for me when I watched this episode for the first time... and still does if I think too much about it. I had literally just moved house myself, moving away from my family and the area I'd lived in for over 20 years, since I was 5, so I really connected with Twilight in this moment. 1:42:35 I only noticed Rumble cooking in there on my third watch. Guess his special talent is in cooking if he's being allowed to cook for a coronation. 1:43:15 🤦♀️ Twilight, the last 4 episodes have made it ABUNDANTLY clear you should NOT SAY STUFF LIKE THAT. When will you ponies ever learn? ... Well, I guess you did during the 20 year timeskip. But my point still stands. 1:46:28 oh yeah, that is the playful bickering of two ponies married. AppleDash is canon. Surprised you took it so well. 1:46:45 I do have to say, the rest of the Mane 6's immortality chose a very interesting time to kick in, thus leaving them at their current physical states. Yes, I know there's no confirmation that the Mane 6 are all immortal, but there's no confirmation that they AREN'T all immortal either, plus Twilight IS now ruler of Equestria so either she is immortal and the others are too or she would have to find an heir herself as it has been stated over and over that she will not outlive her friends. With what we've been shown, to me, that means all six of them are immortal. That's my interpretation and that's that. If anyone doesn't agree with me, that's their decision but they cannot prove to me otherwise. 1:51:07 hello, Spike's daughter. And here's a hint: Rarity isn't her mother 😉 1:52:25 Sunset's in the show! Sunset's in the show! It is literally a blink and you'll miss it moment, but Sunset is right there in the background. Now, beyond any Shadow of the smallest doubt, NO ONE can say Equestria Girls is not canon to the show. The Sirens appearing in season 7's finale started to quiet down the argument, but THIS ENDS IT. Sunset Shimmer has officially appeared in the show, solidifying the movies and show are one in the same! This, combined with every else in the episode, the confirmation of ships, the just vague enough suggestions of other ships to be open to anyone's interpretation, seeing how so many of the characters' lives are in the future and, finally, ending the show by closing the book that literally started it all. This was a brilliant end to an amazing show. MLP has changed my life for the better in so many ways that I never could've imagined 8 years ago. I am a better person for it and I want thank Hasbro, Lauren Faust, Tara Strong, Ashleigh Ball, Andrea Lidmen, Tabatha St. Germain, Cathy Wesluck, Rebecca Socheit, Nicole Oliver and all the other voice actors who brought this show to life and made it so amazing.
And thus the end of a great ear, one that will never be replicated, has come to end, except for the Equestria Girl stuff, Thank you FiM for everything. :)
There are so many things the finale throws at you it's nearly impossible to see all of them upon 1st viewing. One detail people seem to miss is that future AJ wears Granny smiths scarf and Apple Bloom wears delicious's scarf. forgive any ignorance about the name of the accessory(s)
And I have a little theory remember how grogar was said to be banished by gusty the great who also stole his bell what if she used the bell to take his magic and that’s how it got in there
I can imagine that Rainbow Dash is just bunking with Applejack to help her after the recent death of Granny Smith (lets hope she was around long enough to know her great-grandchild). Rainbow Dash is helping with the chores probably because AJ threw herself into farm work, which is not healthy when mourning a dead loved one, so RD tries to finish all of them in record time so AJ can have some to herself, but like AJ mentioned, she was not doing it right
If that epilogue never existed and it was left open-ended, then it would’ve left it to the viewer to decide their own ending, leading to the possibility that there are still several adventures left to keep it going.
How does this epilogue prevent the Mane 6 from going on more adventures? It looks like something between 10-20 years have passed looking at the aging of the young characters, so there's plenty of time for stuff to happen before the Epilogue happens.
Paradoxical Outcome Because judging by the fact that a “Season 10” will now only be in comic book form and not animation (as well as ending Season 9 with an epilogue), there’s got be more adventures or backstories during the 10-20 year timeskip. If the epilogue must happen, then it should’ve been saved for S10.
@@twist58 I mean, as much as they want to label it "Season 10", comics and other non-animated stuff have always been semi-canon (Or at least, I treat them as headcanon generators where I can pick and choose what I want to believe). You can just ignore them if you want to make up your own adventures. Besides, we don't know how long this "Season 10" will be and how much of the post-show period it'll eat up.
Paradoxical Outcome On another note, it’s fandom-based animations that can closely resemble the TV designs is now the way to go. Brutal Weather, Argol, and Minty Root are of the few examples that are help keeping MLP: FiM alive.
twist58 Yup. Though I would note that it isn't really a "new" development; the fandom has been able to mimic the show's quality and style pretty much since the very beginning. It is less of an improvement in talent (Though that has certainly happened) and more the talented people being more willing to make fan content closely resembling the show after the shadow of copyright started dissipating more and more as it became apparent that the show was on it's way out. I would say the increase in show quality fan content in the later 1/3's of the show's life has been the end of the fear of mimicking the show's style a little too much (See Button Mash's Adventures for the results of that). Not really anything opposing your comment, just wanted to say it.
Growing Up is Hard to Do seems like something DWK would tear into, because it reaffirms the trend set in Season 6, namely that adults aren't always right and more often than not will give kids shit advice. :3
So since there aren’t any more spoilers to worry about, are you going to be reacting to the “A Decade of Pony” behind the scenes special? Or did you already react to it, you just haven’t posted it yet?
I really loved the future Spike role in Equestria since I always felt he is the one that has brought the most allies. Thanks to him they brought the dragons under Embers rule and he convinced her of friendship between ponies and dragons. And he was the first one to befriend Torax who would then become king. Honestly Spike is the most connected character in the show. Thanks for the reactions Edit: looking forward to DWKs version of these since his Maud called it with Rarity marrying her career. Also thanks for not being confused on who the distraction was. I didn´t understand why so many where confused since I feel they needed the fastest and strongest distracting these guys so that nobody would die. Did you notice that Luster is Starlight and Sunburst daughter or did you mentioning it flew by me?
Pretty sure there's been no mention of Luster Dawn's parentage... Only things I've seen are fan theories saying she's PROBABLY Starlight and Sunbursts kid
well in case she isn´t then her cutiemark is really missleading since it is really similar to Sunburst´s plus I imagine any offspring between Starlight and Sunburst would have really strong magic in my opinion
Hey RarityDash... I presume by now, this is something you know... but did you notice during the flashback scene the Power Pony comic's front page? A Super Powered Pony holding up a wagon? Shades of Action Heroes #1 with Superman and a car? I'd even bet the name of the character was SuperMare. Or, possibly SuperColt. the Frank Pony
I am sad to see the end of this gen of MLP but am glad they chose to go out on top. While the finale was great I think that the Big Mac Question is my favorite, followed by The Last Problem. Those 2 just carry so much of the heart and genuine kindness that has made MLP so memorable over the years.
As badly as discord messed up, i think some of the opinions people have on it are extremely harsh such as he should be turned to stone for s9, despite the fact that he was only was tryna be a good friend to twilight in his own way and didn't try to put the mane 6 in real danger as he stated he would have been a safety net w his powers, also important to remember that his plan did actually work in the premiere and is just a case of u should have stopped while ahead because of his already established traits of arrogance and not thinking things through. He also risked his life to deflect a beam from tirek that could have easily killed him to help the mane 6 escape and stayed behind without any powers throwing rocks which looks funny but still putting himself in danger to try to make up for his mistake the most he can. And for all the people who gave discord undeserved hate and the villains undeserved sympathy, its important to remember the villains are in control of their own actions and discord wasn't trying to sadistic doom/rule over equestria for his own will like they were shown to be doing here.
You kind of missed the Starlight VS Chrysalis quotes. Such as Chrysalis: "You'll pay for that!" Starlight: "Put it on my tab!"
Well, that's the cost of being a reactor.
One thing I didn't hear mentioned:
AJ is wearing Granny's scarf and AB is wearing Goldie's.
They passed on, finally reunited with the parents.
I dont think any reactor actually noticed those details at first, unfortunately
Oh I never noticed thats so sad
Yeah nobody notices that. It's sad.
@@alyssabullock6421 applegeek did
And most likely grand pear too
I love the Lyra and Bon Bon proposal because right after Lyra proposes, Bon Bon pulls out a ring because she was gonna do the same thing
Funny how the most speculated ship in all the show's history is now a thing
But then they separated during the finale so it seems racism is greater than their love for each other...at the time. Hopefully they've overcome that.
@@MotoroidARFC No, each other's safety was probably their top priority. They likely cared too much about each other to stay together and risk one of them getting injured. For them, staying with their different races was the best option to ensure that they both made it out.
That moment when Rarity throws a large piece of the destroyed castle at the Terrible Trio though, that was awesome! Go Rarity!!
Think about it, if she didn't throw that rock, Twilight would have literally been vaporized.
@That Grey Peanut tom-ic
A rock was her destiny afterall
Around a table as the main 6 talk about their battle. "I transformed my party cannon into a bazooka!", "I sent the Geese to attack Cozy.", "I used my perfect Lasso Skills to tie up Cozy.", "I used my great magic to confuse them.", "I used my Speed to interrupt them!" ….Rarity looks around..... "I THREW A ROCK AT THEM!" Everypony slowly looks to Rarity.... "It was a big rock...."
Honestly that is literally all that went through my head. It felt very un Rarity. Not to happy that she was shown to be tired after that. I swear she had done stuff like this before and wasn't tired after it. also Marshmallow eating contest.... That wasn't subtle at all Twilight... We all know what you want to do with the marshmallow....
@@takugenji490 you give one of the best référence ^^
It IS Pinkies kid man, the two Ponies were the babysitters and btw. the cake twins
pinkie actually even said so when she entered. She said it's so hard these days to find a babysitter for little cheese and then brought her to the two
I’m still don’t understand how you thought the cake twins were lil cheese parents.lol
I guess there was too much to process during the epilogue
GoT influence ?
Dumbass lol. God damnit raritydash. 🤭
Duusu Fan MLB that’s not very nice
Babysitters
Tirek really was the only one with common sense in the trio.
Totally.
@TKHulk (ToonamiKusagari). I also like how Tirek was really the only team player. Not once did he give any indication he was gonna back stab them. Chrysalis was pretty blatant it was all about her and Cozy made it pretty obvious when she got Discord's magic that she would betray them the instant she was more powerful than them.
@THulk (ToonamiKusagari). To be fair, the truce is on until Equestria is destroyed. So, that could be her just being pragmatic.
Except that he never drained Starlight or the the Mane 6 of their magic after they were caught.
If he had, Starlight wouldn't have been able to distract them and give Spike and the others the chance to escape
He’s seems to be the only one who actually learned mentally from his defeat, where as Chyralis honed her individual talents and no longer relied so heavily on minions.
"Trying to summon some windigos?" HOW DID YOU CATCH THAT?! Literally *no one* saw that coming, and you called it the very instant Chrysalis started sowing the seeds of racism lmao
By no one you mean those who does reaction videos?
@@ljuc Well, yeah. I'm sure *someone* thought of that, but that's the first reaction I've seen where they weren't like "Oh shit, the windigos are back?!" lol
@@DJCosmicLatte Not a reactor so yeah, but I was talking about the wendigos not actually being destroyed back at the Hearth warming event. I did love them bringing back the wendigos though. It definitely was a great callback though. Though thought it would be something Sombra would have wanted to use. Didn't think they were just going to appear.
@@takugenji490 The hearthswarming event, if we are on the same page, was never said to DESTROY the wendigos. It wasn't really a CALLBACK the wendigos are just FACTS. If earth ponies, pegasi, and unicorns split and turn on eachother, the wendigos return until peace is restored, simple as that.
Why would Sombra think of using the wendigos, as if he cares? He wants to rule Equestria, not let an untamed magic that could be trouble for HIM roam free! And they didn't just appear out of no where, cause obviously all the pony races were split up.
Damn, those final notes that echo the opening theme - the first song we ever heard - get me every time...
me too (;
I've never heard you laugh like when Pinkie had the bell lmao
PhonicBoom/ CosmicLatte the only other times I can think of where he laughed like that were in his reaction to the episode Newbie Dash during the part when RD imitated Rarity, and his reaction to a video called “The Tale of Rarity” by Drowning in Horseshoes
You thought he laughed this hard in this one, watch any of his Totally Legit Recap reactions
Antonio Greene oh I’ve definitely seen those. I was just naming some specific moments off the top of my head where he basically had a laugh attack. Another one I just remembered, and this is a pretty old video of his, was his reaction to Fluttershy plays Can Your Pet
So in another universe : Rarijack is canon .
While in the pony universe : Appledash is canon.
Best of both worlds for Scribbler Productions and The Lost Narrator 😉😁
Applejack just b out here ruining our ship lmao 😂
I was thinking about that 😂😂😂
At least Hasbro isn't limiting it 😅💙🧡💜
ehhhh not sure about that
Solus Digur 10/10
Oh god, here we go. This will be the big one !!! Rarity Dash, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your amazing reactions so far. Thanks to you, I encountered many of the fandom creations You always make me have a good laugh.
I will edit this comment when you actually watch episodes but because of time difference, it will probably be lost among the others
52:15 As Tirek explained in an earlier episode, he can only drain magic from living things, thus not the magic the bell already holds. Also it seems when he drains magic it simply becomes his own, he doesn't gain unique properties of the magic (hence back when he drained Discord he didn't gain chaos magic powers), whereas Grogar's bell retains the properties of the magic it drains.
Confirmed Ships - SugarMac, LyraBon, PinkieCheese
Implied Ships - YonaBar, AppleDash, FlutterCord
About time. I was worried he forgot all about it. Oh man, this is gonna be emotional
You really think he would forget about pony? The foundation of his channel? He was dealing with copyright.
@@SuperNova_5482 It was just taking so long. I've never seen him go this long in between. I'm just so happy he can see the beautiful ending of this series.
@@phantomslay5612 He actually did upload this the same week the finale aired i think, he just had to wait out the copyright, and maybe find a good time to do the premiere
@@SuperNova_5482 I didn't even see an alert that day. Are you a patreon?
I am one of the request tier patrons, yes, but that doesn't come with anything other than me getting to choose a video for him to watch. The reaction to the finale was never published, if that's a miscommunication that's happened. RD said that he watched it nearly right away, if I recall correctly.
Those images show all the characters that had an impact on the main characters is massive symbolism. The farther back and more noticeable they are and bigger means they are the ones who had the biggest impact on their lives. Twilight image and Celestia, Luna and Candace in the back center and right in front of the princesses is Sunset Shimmer in pony form.
I just realize something. Sunset Shimmer was the first villain twilight ever clashed against as an Alicorn. And sunset actually help her get used to being an Alicorn. Sunset has rightfully earn that spot.
And Sunset Shimmer is the only irrefutable evidence that Equestria Girls is canon (apart from Meghan McCarthy's word, but some people don't trust that I guess). The sirens in Shadow Play could've been explained away as "they could've been sent anywhere!", so there wasn't any real winner on either side until this episode.
Its the last episode. It's not fanservice to have an epilogue lmao
Having an epilogue isn't fanservice but the content is
@@herbiek4922 It's not fanservice to show where characters went. It's literally how growing up works.
@@milesedgeworth132 Moments written in the finale to support the hopes of fans is fanservice; not remotely a bad thing tho. Then again the OP was about the whole epilogue which I guess RD called fanservice in the video?
@@milesedgeworth132 its not because its an epilogue that its fanservice but the bulk of the content was fanservice because its to confirm popular ships its fanservice
@@milesedgeworth132 it depends.
Honestly Discord's plan in the finale makes perfect sense considering his thinking has always been twisted. Of course it would seem dumb to someone normal but Discord is the spirit of chaos he doesn't think like a normal person would & never has. And let's not forget that his plan was actually reforming Tirek, Chrysalis & Cozy too. If chrysalis hadn't been there or hadn't realized quick enough this finale could have gone very differently.
Absolutely true.
Plus, if you actually go back and look through the season, you see foreshadowing about this all over the place.
The way I look at it is he was trying the Celestia method of teaching without the wisdom or experience needed to do it right. Mix is his chaotic nature to life in general and while it was an interesting plan I am not surprised it failed.
Actually the way his plan failed makes perfect sense in every way, to the point it's actually a callback to his original defeat back when he was a villain. Consider this;
Return of Harmony: Discord completely discounted the Mane 6 as a threat, started toying with them, and then when they managed to actually find, activate and use the Elements of Harmony on him, he stood there in shock until they turned him back to stone.
The Ending of the End: Discord completely discounted the Trio as a threat, started trying to reform them, and when they managed to actually find, activate and use Grogar's Bell on him, he stood there in shock until they drained his magic.
Discord wasn't trying to reform them, he was trying to make them into a formidable force of evil for Twilight to defeat in order to gain her confidence back. He explained the whole plan himself.
1:35:32 Lyra and Bon Bon got married!!!! WHOOOOOOO!!!!
And.....Pinkie got married to Cheese Sandwich, Granny Smith peacefully passed away, Flurry Heart's the new leader of the crystal empire, Rainbow Dash is the new captain of the Wonder Bolts, and the magic of friendship goes down from one generation to the next.
@Solus Digur I disagree mainly because Appledash is actually CANON. So is Fluttercord. It is ok to not LIKE the ship, as anyone is allowed to have OPINIONS, but you can't just pretend it doesn't exist and that they don't love eachother. Just saying. That's just ignoring facts, not having an opinion.
Rarity saves Twilight
Rairty saves Spike
Spike saves Rarity
Discord saves Starlight
Starlight save the imprisoned
Everyone saves everyone
True, but can we agree Rarity was the MVP of the finale, because her actions allowed Twilight to escape.
@@LordNanfoodle eyyyyyuuuuuuppp
There's a lot of rarity in this equation and I like it
@@LordNanfoodle yesssss we can rarity is mvp and best pony
Look closely at apple bloom an apple jack around there necks
And then there's me who's still bugged that nobody acknowledges the distinct symbolism of the past, present, and future when the pillars, mane six, and young six begin to float around twilight at the ending battle.
Kinda upset you didn’t notice older Pound and Pumpkin but either then that great stuff!
@TKHulk (ToonamiKusagari) 😅
@TKHulk (ToonamiKusagari) That's not incest though. Pinkie isn't related to the cakes.
Not only did Lyra and Bon Bon propose to each other, but their wedding was published in the Ponyville Gazette, along with the defeat of the Evil Three, and Twilight's Coronation.
It is presumed that unlike Discord, when the Evil trio was 'stoned', they would not experience time passing like Discord did.
So, Lyra-Bon is a thing. Discord and Fluttershy is a thing. Apple Jack and Rainbow Dash is a thing. Yona and Sandbar is a thing. Sugar Belle and Big Mac have a foal... and related to that, Applejack was wearing Grannie Smith's shawl.
Gallus becomes a Royal Guard. Silverstream works at the School of Friendship.
All through the last episode, you get to see just about every pony and other creature ever depicted in the series, with the notable exception of 'villains'.
In the Castle scenes, you get to see new windows... one of which seems to be Flurry Heart's empowerment as an Alicorn during some feat (probably will be revealed during the Season 10 comic book series). Or her own Crowning as Empress of the Crystal Empire.
To the left of the 'Young Six' window, is the one for the Pillars of Equestra.
Yup, the newspaper... Derpy opens her own Muffin Shop. Lyra Heartstrings and Bon Bon's marriage. The defeat of the Evil Trio.
Yup, the Gorden Ramsy pony to the left, and Saffron Salla's father from the Tasty Treats restaurant.
Note that Tempest (Fizzlepop Berrytwist) is standing right next to Zecora. They would form a friendship, since both know how it feels to be 'different' from most ponies.
After we see Pinkie and Little Cheese... we get a scene with Pinkie and Cheese Sandwich riding a grown up Gummy. And Little Cheese running and being hugged by the grown up Cake Twins at Sugar Cube Corner.
Rarity seems to have never found her 'prince'... but she's THE fashionista of Equestria and Beyond.
Rainbow Dash now has Spitfire's job as Wonderbolt Trainer, and leader of the Wonderbolts. Although during Dash's scene, we only see four Pegasai, and that's not a 'bad' thing... I would liked to see a Griffin or a Hippogriff.
Starlight is Head Mare of the School of Friendship, aided by her long time friend Sunburst. And I guess also aided by Silverstream as well.
The Crusaders are adults and teaching classes, and even Trixie is a teacher. We also see that Apple Bloom has on Goldie Delicious' Shawl.
Ocellus and Smoulder MIGHT be a 'thing' also. Ocellus would not make fun of Smoulder's occasional liking for 'girly' things, and would and could join her in enjoying them together. So, at least a friendship there, if not more.
Although only seen during the 'rainbow dance' during the final song, we all KNOW that the Octy-Vinyl ship is there. living so long together as friends and sharing a house, one can easily infer that ship sailing along nicely.
Starlight Glimmer NOT being a part of the Council of Friendship is probably a good thing. She has her hooves full at the School, and could easily be called upon if direly needed. Ditto for the Crusaders, the Young Six, and any other pony or creature that is friends with the Twilight and the Throne of Canterlot.
Oh, the initial scene with Spike... reporting back to Twilight... about the Abyssinian - Diamond Dog peace talks... we all know the Diamond Dogs, but the Abyssinians are Capper's race. And during the 'rainbow dance' we get a peek at Sunset Shimmer (as a pony), so both the Equestria Girls and the My Little Pony Movie are both 'cannon' as of this final episode.
And finally, the Series and Final Episode end the way it all began... with the Book of Equestria. Only closing this time. Fitting, I'd say to visually cap things off like that.
Just me, being me, and long winded as usual,
the Frank Pony
It’s Been one hell of a ride RD, and I don’t just mean MLP. I’ve watched you experience so many amazing works of art, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Thanks for everything man, and here’s to many more amazing years 🥂
Everyone thinking he thought Lil’ Cheese was the twins daughter, when he could’ve just assumed she was another cake kid, as Mr. Cake has curly hair and a yellow coat, and Mrs. Cake has pink hair. It’s not that big of a stretch to assume he just thought she was their little sister.
Been here for many years now and don’t plan on going anywhere! It’s been amazing to see this Channel grow and evolve over the years! Here’s to all the reactions to come with the future 👍🏻
When Cozy Glow Failed at Chaos magic was hilarious, not to mention pleasing to me, because it confirmed my theories on why when Tirek first stole magic from Discord, he used it like normal, but when from the Bell it is uncontrollable. To me, tirek only eats the energy to make Logical, structured spells, like LAZERS! But the bell give the mechanics and nature of the energy, wich reacts to thought processes. Hence why Discord (and later Pinkie) were the only ones able to use Chao s even remotely close to their intented results: to Wield Chaos, One must Know Chaos, Think Chaos, BE Chaos!
Nice
Tirek steals POWER, the bell steals MAGIC. While Discord is very powerful, he also has a very specific type of magic that I believe is only wielded by him.
who would like to see him hear the leaked audio footage from the actors/audio
The thing with Discord is that he is the God of Chaos. He lives, breathes, thinks, and is chaos. In his mindset, as he explained, he thought he was doing the right thing through what he knows and is: Chaos.
There was also a theory I saw where someone showed that it was plausible the real Grogar is dead. I believe the main point was a skull in the desert that was very similar to what Grogar's skull would look like. But I dunno.
He could very well have mutated into that creature after Gusty stole his bell and used it to steal his magic.
Heck, that might explain why he tried to steal the Griffon's treasure. Maybe he was delusional due to the transformation and mistook the idol for his bell

Epic and Emotional Finale music number) (1:50:58-1:51:16 Sunburst's Beard definitely grew, Starlight and Trixie have some nice new outfits, the CMCs look exactly like they did in episode 22. Also, they went from tutors to teachers) (1:51:28 Applejack and Applebloom are aunts, just like Twilight) (1:51:54-1:52:01 Reference to the theme song) (1:52:19 Bright Mac and Pear Butter/Buttercup)
Oh man, “The Last Problem” really was a wonderful way to close Gen 4 of MLP! Seeing every creature in their older years (not too old mind you) was very cool and I also like some of the outcomes that have taken place for the characters too. Among those highlights are Pinkie and Cheese being a married couple with a young foal of their own, Big Mac and Sugar Belle also having a kid, Fluttershy living with Discord (implying that they are a couple), and even Yona and Sandbar still being an item. It was nice to see a flashback of Twilight’s second coronation ceremony and being able to see most of our favorite characters attending it. And of course, the final song (“The Magic of Friendship Grows”) was the thing that sealed the deal with this epilogue episode. The music itself gives me “We’ll Make Our Mark” vibes and it feels SO wonderful and beautiful, enough to bring myself to tears of joy. I loved how we were able to see the majority of MLP characters that we’ve come to know in this generation from start to finish, within the backgrounds of the Mane 6 moving across the screen. The way the song ended with the melody of this show’s theme song and how we zoom out of that last shot of the Mane 6 and Spike, with the famous book from episode 1 closing up, that was pitched perfectly in my opinion. MLP FIM has been an amazing ride for me in more ways than one and I’m really glad that I was able to watch this fun TV show from beginning to end.
P.S: For future reference, I’ve enjoyed your reactions to MLP, RarityDash and I thank you for that! It has been a fun ride watching this show with you and as always, I look forward to more of your content.🙂
I love that the flim flam brothers were there helping with the unicorn shield at 1:25:56 very left behind Tempest
WATCHING RARITY THROW A BOLDER AT TERIECK MADE MY DAY -
When Rarity chucked that boulder at Tirek, Cozy and Chrysalis, the first thing that came to my mind was: “Oh Raritydash is going to go ballistic.”
So actually heard a few other reactors wondering what became of Twilight's old castle but remember she left it to Starlight earlier in the season and she and the other teachers still need a place to live so its obviously still gonna be needed.
Right nextdoor to the school and vacant.
A beautiful end to an amazing series. Live on RarityDash. Live on Bronies everywhere. This show is never truly gone. It's as AJ says.
"It's something true to pass on down to generations to come."
Can't belive Raritydash didn't realize who the baby cakes were.
Tarponpet Secord ikr
I think I’m gonna cry.
Correction.
I KNOW I’m gonna cry.
Crazy how far this show has come,amazing how this finale was and man its crazy this series actually ended.never really knew anything about this show ending but that was just amazing. Always sad to see a longtime series go but yeah. Im amazed.
I'm never gonna forget this show, NEVER
Me too 😢😢
Not sure if anyone said already or if you figured it out, but the two ponies you saw at SugarCube Corner were the Cake Twins.
Thank you RarityDash for reacting to this show. The entire series ended really well. MLP FIM is always the best of your reactions videos! : )
1:33:19 Well, she's got Celestia's side eye down
All aboard the feel train everyone!!!
Tissues will be provided for you!!
*Gives tissues*
And remember THE RIDE NEVER ENDS!!!!
Thanks for the tissues.
@@SpacialRend7 No problem mate.
Right you are. Live on dear bronies. Live on.
That depressing moment you notice applejack wearing granny smiths bandana/scarf thing
It’s finally here. The moment we’ve all dreaded but all waited for.
RarityDash. I know you don’t answer comments very often, but here goes:
I never joined the MLP fandom until Season 5 was still fairly new in 2015. But what got me hooked was the introduction of Countess Coloratura and her songs. As someone good on the piano, her songs were the ones I began playing and helped reignite my skills in so long. I have to thank MLP: FiM for allowing me to start the piano again.
And at first I was confused about why tirek was against taking Discord’s magic but then I remembered he turns the magic he takes into energy to fuel his own power he doesn’t actually use it
Yeah, I noticed Raritydash confused on this part. What you said is pretty much accurate. Think of Tirek's power as using Osmose in Final Fantasy VI; you're just sucking away the target's MP for your own use. However, Grogar's Bell is more like equipping a Magicite in Final Fantasy VI; you absorb the power of the Esper to acquire the same magic they had.
Episode 22 is a good one. Though I initially thought that we’d see the CMC all grown up in the finale, it was pretty cool to see them prior to it. Their canon designs as adults are not too far off from the show accurate fan art we’ve been getting all these years. I also dig their last song together, it’s one of my favorites from the collection we already have.
Anyone else get Steven Universe: The Movie vibes from the finale? You got Twilight talking about keeping things the same, then villains with the ability to nullify attack, Twilight's personality resets to her former one as a result of learning the truth, Twilight is left alone to solve the problem, the world is set to come to an end, then once she gets her friends back, Applejack tells Twilight, "Bad things happen. No matter what you do, there's never going to be a time when everything is perfect, but that don't mean you quit trying." Then they beat the villains, and then... um, Here We Are in the Future?!
'adds a bookend...' quite literally. ended with the book we saw from the beginning of s1 ep 1
You actually uploaded this on my birthday
Happy birthday!
happy birthday!! >w
Huh, interesting when you speculated on G5 slotting in post-coronation and not the "many moons later" time, cause we got implications in the Make Your Mark series that, while it is in the distant future, it may be in an alt timeline/canon where it's just like that! 😮 After all, we did see that projection of Twilight in her non-Celestial form, warning about the rogue student stealing magic and kicking off the Unity Crystal Saga. (Ohhhh, nice name for this whole current leg of the series! I hope the series involves more than that so we have more Sagas! Like the DBZ Sagas!) 😄
Thank you! Only because of you, now I got, that Pinkie is the only one who can use chaos magic. Thank you!
"Poor Chrysalis" Nah, she had it coming ever since the end of season 6.
I had more hope for Tirek at this point honestly.
when you endanger the entire timeline of equestria, as well as causing countless suffering for thousands if not millions of ponies and become the sole student of the princess of friendship, but try to turn equestria against each other and make the windigos briefly return, ending up getting turned to stone for eternity
Peppermint Swirl this old shit again? How do people manage to miss the fact that Starlight didn't mean to do any of that, and showed remorse? Whereas Chrysalis meant everything she ever tried to do and had no remorse whatsoever? How is this hard to grasp?
Antroid it’s super hard for close minded people
@@PeppermintSwirl Seriously though, I feel like context just doesn't exist in this fandom with how many apologists of straight up villains try to justify their unfounded belief in their favorite character by pointing out stuff redeemed or good characters did. Starlight didn't even KNOW travelling to the past to remove Twilight would do anything to Equestria. Once she did learn what would happen (And was convinced enough to believe it), she GAVE UP. Straight up gave up her plans of revenge to avoid harming innocents.
Also, "try to turn equestria against each other and make the windigos briefly return", lol. Saying like that's something small. I like how we've ignoring that the three personally blew up the castle in Canterlot (And we have no proof that it was evacuated beforehand), and brought about a chain of events that would most likely cause most of Equestria except for small pockets to freeze to death. And for what? For comparison, Starlight did what she did because she truly believed she was doing the right thing, as crooked as it looked to sane people. Chrysalis did it because her kingdom overthrew her shitty governance and she got pissed off about it. Tirek did it because he's an entitled noble who wants to rule over everything. Cozy Glow did it for absolutely no reason except for personal enjoyment... and none of the latter three showed a shred of remorse the whole time.
It’s been 3000 years
2 hours of reaction? This is gonna be a fun ride
*the ending 😂Oh god raritydash your making me cry 😂*
1:06:40
You're right Tirek, Somnambula is the perfect dessert...
I regret saying that..
Authors threw RainbowJack in there just because they wanted to do so. So it was their own headcanon coming to life.
I'm going to miss this show..I loved this show when I was young, and now it have ended 😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔💔💔
Goodbye My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, you're one fantastic family show ❤️
And it’s officially confirmed those cocoons come out of chrysalis’s hands and mouth
🤮
Autum Breeze I know
funny how equestria is usally so peaceful because if they weren't ancient horse spirits would freeze them all to death...
Humans also have a similar thing with nuclear winters, but it doesn't seem that effective
15:47 it's just mourningwood from Fable 3 (this is an old reference by now)
The book is not a story of princes celestia but what twilight's story of becoming the leader and the book closing represents luna and celest having passed on...
Well, we don't get confirmation their dead by the end
@@autumbreeze1129 true true...
This reaction was one Emotional Roller Coaster🎢
I broke when you teared up at the end...
When she sees what happened to her friend, Fluffle Puff will not be happy
Someone actually made a Fluffle Puff video recently tackling that very subject.
"friend" 👁️
1. RarityDash hit the nail on the head with this one. The CMC are a little too mature for this episode.
2. That moment with AJ hearing the story was very cute. But seriously, why isn't Starlight there?
3. Hold on a second, aren't marshmallows made out of hooves!?
4. All Blink-and-you'll-miss-it Lyrabon moments: successfully noticed!
More things: The furthest left mural has Sweetie Belle and implies the rest of the CMC are on there.
That dragon giving a flower to a pony. Keeping Spike's dream alive. Gives me Blue Rose of Illium vibes.
The two older ponies with Little Cheese are the grown up Cake Twins, not the parents.
AJ and Applebloom are wearing Granny Smith's and Goldie Delicious's sashes respectively.
While it is true the CMCs should know better I will give them just a touch of leeway on this one, they suddenly have the ability to do stuff they have always been told "you are to young for" and lost perspective. Kind of like an 18 year old who just got a license and can finally drive anytime they want without parent or some such in the car with them. I also like that this shows how peer pressure can happen with a group of friends, Sweetie Belle obviously wanted to just wait for the next train but she got talked into going along with the other 2.
Also I like how they referenced the comics with tirek
I 💙 the song at the end.
same. gs
Me to
Blue heart = sad love
I'd say Fluttershy's moment was sympathising with Twilight when she was scared.
8:03 Rarity, it's been over FIVE YEARS since Twilight moved to Ponyville.
Your sister and her friends aren't freaking toddlers! They're young mares. YOU, especially, should know this well since it was the moral of Forever Filly!
Not to mention, HOW many times have the CMC gone off on their own and been fine?
9:12 okay, that's another audio mix up. That was just Scootaloo's previous "we know". Really?
9:37 🎶tale as old as time🎶
9:42-9:53 Gah! The CMC just went G3.5 on us for a second there!
11:54 question is, if the Flower loses a petal every time a wish is made on it, and it looks like it originally had 4 petals, who used the other 2 wishes and what for?
And did you notice Scootaloo's wings are still the same size as they are as a filly?
Proof she's got a disability, but not necessarily that she won't ever be able to fly. After all, if Bulk Biceps can fly with his tiny wings despite his FAR larger than adult Scootaloo size, Scootaloo should have no problems at all.
12:31 wait. How is Scootaloo's helmet still able to fit her when it was designed for a foal with a head much smaller than hers is now?
13:35 well, if nothing else, the hassle the CMC's wish caused at least resulted in Scootaloo helping that clearly stressed mother calm down and cheer up her baby.
18:02 uh... yeah, like he said, your face and mane style are kinda looking familiar AND you're a pegasus. You... wouldn't happen to have a distant relative by the name of... Cozy Glow, would you, Spur?
22:54 hello, Dorothy Gale pony. Still getting sucked into tornadoes no matter which world you're in I see.
Now I understand why your last name is *Gale* 😆
Though, it is odd the CMC didn't ask too many other ponies to take them to the fair beyond their sisters, Fluttershy and Twilight. Sweetie Belle's parents, Scootaloo's aunts or even Mrs. Cake, who literally was at the fair, so could've easily taken them with her.
My only guess is that they did ask other ponies, we just weren't shown them all.
29:07 huh. So either she's bi or that was back when she was still trying to understand what side of the spectrum she was on.
...
Though how'd YOU find out about it, Discord? What, did you read her diary or something?
35:46 LyraBon completely canon! This ship is setting sail and can NEVER sink! 😁
And I'm not the least bit surprised they ignored all the chaos happening around them during their proposals.
As their dialogue in Slice of Life suggested, they're far beyond used to it by now.
Lyra casually: there's some monster attacking Ponyville.
Bon Bon deadpan: what is it THIS time? Creature from The Everfree Forest?
43:07 hello, hilarious Star Trek reference 😉
49:01 hmm. I feel there's a certain unicorn missing from Sugar Belle's guest list here.
49:11 and in the exact same place too. 😁
50:49 honestly, I'm surprised he fell for that so easily.
Hey, hornhead! This isn't freaking before the first Hearth's Warming!
Even if it were true certain Earth Ponies are hoarding food and saying such things, they'd be in the minority, not to mention it would hardly do anything. Earth Ponies aren't the only farmers in Equestria anymore.
Not to mention there's plenty of food. You're not in a freaking famine like it was back then.
How this unicorn just blindly started hating unicorns after this is one of the few nitpicks I have with this episode.
53:34 oh, hey. It's the Flash Stone from G1.
That could be a dangerous item in the wrong hands considering an evil Octopus used it to subjugate the creatures of Dream Valley.
...
You know, reading that over just reminded me how damn weird G1 was. 🤨
54:19 I say it's Discord's own fault he got revealed and lost his magic to the bell.
He had plenty of time to teleport out of Cheese Legs' mucus, but instead he flailed around as if it was out of the his power. Even still pretending to be Grogar, he could easily have broken free and avoided getting zapped by the bell.
58:05 okay, unicorns becoming untrusting of Earth Ponies or not, this is APPLEJACK, a very known savior of Equestria and good friend to the incoming new ruler of Equestria.
Something tells me this guard's either always had a hidden grudge against Earth Ponies or Applejack herself for a long time and is now using the rumors Cheese Legs has been spreading as an excuse to let his true feelings dictate his actions .
Twi, fire his ass once you're in charge, okay?
1:01:11 so, if I've got this right, and I've had over 3 weeks to think it over before the official airing, the real Grogar is dead and he was defeated not by Gusty the Great merely stealing his Bewitching Bell, but by stealing it and draining his magic with it, making him vulnerable and was killed by the Early Equestrians, likely in a war that had all creatures of Equestria, Griffiths, Hippogryffs, Kirin, Ponies, Dragons, Diamond Dogs, you name it.
1:02:56 you aren't sure the baby can do much? Are you forgetting this is FLURRY HEART you're talking about?
1:06:22 as I mentioned back in The Summer Sun Setback, the animators either forgot or just didn't care that when Tirek fully drains a pony of their magic, their Cutie Mark vanishes too.
It's even more glaring here though, since they remembered Rockhoof's over abundance of Earth Pony magic is what gives him his massive size and losing it reverts him back to the scrawny pony he was before... yet still has his Cutie Mark. Somnambula too, when her magic is drained.
1:09:01 pot, meet kettle.
1:09:16 they missed the chance with that line in the dutch dub, so I am extremely happy they used it here 😁
1:09:41 your ass was LITERALLY saved at the last second there, Cozy. Had Cheese Legs and Tirek taken even half a minute longer to get there, Discord would've already gotten his magic back, as would the Princesses and you'd have been SO screwed, with neither of the other two likely bothering to help you because they'd have to fight everyone else because of your failure to beat them on your own, even with two Alicorns and the Lord of Chaos already out of the picture.
1:12:29 this line confused me the first time I saw this episode, but then I realized, after the throne was destroyed by the overload of love energy back in season 6, it's properties were altered to effect all magic, not just everything other than Changeling Magic. Plus, Cheese Legs doesn't only have Changeling Magic anymore.
With a third of the real Grogar's magic merged with her own magic and coursing through her body, she is now just as vulnerable to the magic canceling effects of the shards as any other non Changeling even if it still drained all but Changeling Magic.
A nice detail to include that one wouldn't know unless they've had a long time to try and understand the lore already established.
Plus, it also helps hint that the Changeling Kingdom was originally Grogar's kingdom, as he was all about draining other's magic, which is exactly what the throne does.
1:14:45 this is the first time in the show anyone other than Scorpan is mentioned from Tirek's family by name (we don't know who his Gram Gram is, so...) ... which then asks the tricky question of whether or not his story from the Fiendship is Magic comics is canon or not.
The Changelings and Sirens issues of those comics clearly are no longer canon (the latter thanks to their banishment being shown in the season 7 finale and the former because we've actually seen the Changeling Kingdom in the season finale before that and it was NOTHING like in the comic), and likely not Sombra's either, as his personality is VERY different in the show compared to what it was in that comic.
1:15:01 wow. It occurred to me watching reactions, Starlight breaking out so the rest of the Mane 6 and Spike can get away, and in turn eventually lead to the 3 villains' defeat, truly is all Tirek's fault.
And not simply because he took Discord's obvious bait by using Tirek's daddy issues, but also because he didn't bother to drain Starlight of her magic before they locked her up.
Wow. The most competent of the villains, the one who kept pointing out what they logically should be doing throughout the whole episode, is the reason they lost.
Yeah. Cmc have had responsibilities now and although this kind of behaviour would definitely be characteristic of the younger cmc this is definitely a stretch.
Decided to get them all out of the way at once I see lol. I don't blame you, I watched 18-26 in one sitting, myself. Got paranoid about spoilers.
Same reason I watched all the leaks quickly... though I did put them off for a week since I was still trying to adjust to having moved shortly before the leaks happened
49:01 every other member of the apple family is busy
1:17:18 man, Sugar Belle is really lucky she and Big Mac already got married two episodes ago instead of after this one.
With all the animosity the Earth Ponies are feeling towards the unicorns and pegasi right now, if she weren't a member of the Apple Family, I don't think she'd have been safe in Ponyville.
But, since she is, nopony is willing to touch her.
I mean, would you wanna risk angering Big Mac? Because I sure as fuck wouldn't.
Anypony who'd go after *Big Mac's* wife now would have to be beyond idiotic or they have a death wish.
1:18:34 okay, yes, Twilight, you're kind of right regarding THIS season... but how can you say NOTHING you've ever done matters?
You defeated Nightmare Moon and in turn freed Princess Luna, reuniting her and Celestia after a thousand years of being separated.
You defeated Discord back when he was evil, no small feat as it has been hammered in again and again since season 3 that he is the most powerful being in the Universe.
You helped Cadance and Shining Armour defeat not only Cheese Legs but Sombra too.
You stopped Sunset Shimmer and set her on the right path.
You stopped Tirek after he'd absorbed ALL the Alicorn Magic in Equestria.
You saved Sunset Shimmer's world from the Sirens.
You saved Equestria from an unforeseen end had Starlight's village ever expanded to Canterlot and the Princesses' Cutie Marks get taken, thus killing everything with the end of the day and night cycles.
You saved time and space itself from being ripped to pieces by Starlight.
You were able to stop the Pony of Shadows and banish him forever while also managing to free Stygian from it.
You cannot say NOTHING you've done ever mattered just because of two instances of a set up for you to win.
1:21:50 yeah, that couldn't have been more obvious a reference to Pinky and the Brain besides having Neighsay say it 😏😆
1:22:22 😑 no. You'd be frozen to death along with everything else, Cheese Legs.
1:25:35 AVENGERS... Assemble.
1:30:27 ya know, it's probably because she's still a filly, but I almost feel bad for Cozy. Almost.
1:32:19 Fun fact: Apacinians are Caper's species, so Spike was literally making peace between cats and dogs 😆
1:34:20 that stained glass window is sadly the closest we get of seeing an older Flurryheart.
1:35:32 they are MARRIED! It is done. Signed, sealed and delivered. The ship has not only sailed, it is far off to sea 😊
1:41:09 honestly, this part hit way too close to home for me when I watched this episode for the first time... and still does if I think too much about it.
I had literally just moved house myself, moving away from my family and the area I'd lived in for over 20 years, since I was 5, so I really connected with Twilight in this moment.
1:42:35 I only noticed Rumble cooking in there on my third watch. Guess his special talent is in cooking if he's being allowed to cook for a coronation.
1:43:15 🤦♀️ Twilight, the last 4 episodes have made it ABUNDANTLY clear you should NOT SAY STUFF LIKE THAT.
When will you ponies ever learn?
...
Well, I guess you did during the 20 year timeskip. But my point still stands.
1:46:28 oh yeah, that is the playful bickering of two ponies married. AppleDash is canon.
Surprised you took it so well.
1:46:45 I do have to say, the rest of the Mane 6's immortality chose a very interesting time to kick in, thus leaving them at their current physical states.
Yes, I know there's no confirmation that the Mane 6 are all immortal, but there's no confirmation that they AREN'T all immortal either, plus Twilight IS now ruler of Equestria so either she is immortal and the others are too or she would have to find an heir herself as it has been stated over and over that she will not outlive her friends.
With what we've been shown, to me, that means all six of them are immortal.
That's my interpretation and that's that. If anyone doesn't agree with me, that's their decision but they cannot prove to me otherwise.
1:51:07 hello, Spike's daughter. And here's a hint: Rarity isn't her mother 😉
1:52:25 Sunset's in the show! Sunset's in the show!
It is literally a blink and you'll miss it moment, but Sunset is right there in the background.
Now, beyond any Shadow of the smallest doubt, NO ONE can say Equestria Girls is not canon to the show.
The Sirens appearing in season 7's finale started to quiet down the argument, but THIS ENDS IT.
Sunset Shimmer has officially appeared in the show, solidifying the movies and show are one in the same!
This, combined with every else in the episode, the confirmation of ships, the just vague enough suggestions of other ships to be open to anyone's interpretation, seeing how so many of the characters' lives are in the future and, finally, ending the show by closing the book that literally started it all.
This was a brilliant end to an amazing show.
MLP has changed my life for the better in so many ways that I never could've imagined 8 years ago.
I am a better person for it and I want thank Hasbro, Lauren Faust, Tara Strong, Ashleigh Ball, Andrea Lidmen, Tabatha St. Germain, Cathy Wesluck, Rebecca Socheit, Nicole Oliver and all the other voice actors who brought this show to life and made it so amazing.
What I Don't Understand Is Why Hasbro Would Turn A Child To Stone
And thus the end of a great ear, one that will never be replicated, has come to end, except for the Equestria Girl stuff, Thank you FiM for everything. :)
Grogar: The Mandarin of MLP
MCU Mandrarin, specifically
There are so many things the finale throws at you it's nearly impossible to see all of them upon 1st viewing. One detail people seem to miss is that future AJ wears Granny smiths scarf and Apple Bloom wears delicious's scarf.
forgive any ignorance about the name of the accessory(s)
And I have a little theory remember how grogar was said to be banished by gusty the great who also stole his bell what if she used the bell to take his magic and that’s how it got in there
And so the theory is...?
Autum Breeze I just said it
The emotion is real guys, the end is neigh
Come come on! I can't wait. These were some of my favorites from this season!
I can imagine that Rainbow Dash is just bunking with Applejack to help her after the recent death of Granny Smith (lets hope she was around long enough to know her great-grandchild). Rainbow Dash is helping with the chores probably because AJ threw herself into farm work, which is not healthy when mourning a dead loved one, so RD tries to finish all of them in record time so AJ can have some to herself, but like AJ mentioned, she was not doing it right
Yes, Pinkie has a kid. The other two ponies were Poindcake, and who ever his sister is named.
Granny Smith and Grand Pair are dead.
Goldie Delicious too
The two people who were playing with lil cheese were the cake twins
Oho all 5 remaining episodes at once.
This is gonna be good!
If that epilogue never existed and it was left open-ended, then it would’ve left it to the viewer to decide their own ending, leading to the possibility that there are still several adventures left to keep it going.
How does this epilogue prevent the Mane 6 from going on more adventures? It looks like something between 10-20 years have passed looking at the aging of the young characters, so there's plenty of time for stuff to happen before the Epilogue happens.
Paradoxical Outcome Because judging by the fact that a “Season 10” will now only be in comic book form and not animation (as well as ending Season 9 with an epilogue), there’s got be more adventures or backstories during the 10-20 year timeskip. If the epilogue must happen, then it should’ve been saved for S10.
@@twist58 I mean, as much as they want to label it "Season 10", comics and other non-animated stuff have always been semi-canon (Or at least, I treat them as headcanon generators where I can pick and choose what I want to believe). You can just ignore them if you want to make up your own adventures. Besides, we don't know how long this "Season 10" will be and how much of the post-show period it'll eat up.
Paradoxical Outcome On another note, it’s fandom-based animations that can closely resemble the TV designs is now the way to go.
Brutal Weather, Argol, and Minty Root are of the few examples that are help keeping MLP: FiM alive.
twist58 Yup. Though I would note that it isn't really a "new" development; the fandom has been able to mimic the show's quality and style pretty much since the very beginning. It is less of an improvement in talent (Though that has certainly happened) and more the talented people being more willing to make fan content closely resembling the show after the shadow of copyright started dissipating more and more as it became apparent that the show was on it's way out. I would say the increase in show quality fan content in the later 1/3's of the show's life has been the end of the fear of mimicking the show's style a little too much (See Button Mash's Adventures for the results of that).
Not really anything opposing your comment, just wanted to say it.
So glad u did the screen shots
Growing Up is Hard to Do seems like something DWK would tear into, because it reaffirms the trend set in Season 6, namely that adults aren't always right and more often than not will give kids shit advice. :3
Oh discord don’t forget Tirek talks to his gram gram in his sleep
So since there aren’t any more spoilers to worry about, are you going to be reacting to the “A Decade of Pony” behind the scenes special? Or did you already react to it, you just haven’t posted it yet?
1:29:27 That laugh though XD
I really loved the future Spike role in Equestria since I always felt he is the one that has brought the most allies. Thanks to him they brought the dragons under Embers rule and he convinced her of friendship between ponies and dragons. And he was the first one to befriend Torax who would then become king. Honestly Spike is the most connected character in the show.
Thanks for the reactions
Edit: looking forward to DWKs version of these since his Maud called it with Rarity marrying her career.
Also thanks for not being confused on who the distraction was. I didn´t understand why so many where confused since I feel they needed the fastest and strongest distracting these guys so that nobody would die.
Did you notice that Luster is Starlight and Sunburst daughter or did you mentioning it flew by me?
Pretty sure there's been no mention of Luster Dawn's parentage...
Only things I've seen are fan theories saying she's PROBABLY Starlight and Sunbursts kid
I'm pretty sure they confirmed somewere that she's not
well in case she isn´t then her cutiemark is really missleading since it is really similar to Sunburst´s plus I imagine any offspring between Starlight and Sunburst would have really strong magic in my opinion
omg the pinkie and the brain reference I'm dying
Hey RarityDash...
I presume by now, this is something you know... but did you notice during the flashback scene the Power Pony comic's front page? A Super Powered Pony holding up a wagon? Shades of Action Heroes #1 with Superman and a car? I'd even bet the name of the character was SuperMare. Or, possibly SuperColt.

I am sad to see the end of this gen of MLP but am glad they chose to go out on top. While the finale was great I think that the Big Mac Question is my favorite, followed by The Last Problem. Those 2 just carry so much of the heart and genuine kindness that has made MLP so memorable over the years.
Remember, Remember....The fifth of November

I was hoping to have someone continue the poem
As badly as discord messed up, i think some of the opinions people have on it are extremely harsh such as he should be turned to stone for s9, despite the fact that he was only was tryna be a good friend to twilight in his own way and didn't try to put the mane 6 in real danger as he stated he would have been a safety net w his powers, also important to remember that his plan did actually work in the premiere and is just a case of u should have stopped while ahead because of his already established traits of arrogance and not thinking things through. He also risked his life to deflect a beam from tirek that could have easily killed him to help the mane 6 escape and stayed behind without any powers throwing rocks which looks funny but still putting himself in danger to try to make up for his mistake the most he can. And for all the people who gave discord undeserved hate and the villains undeserved sympathy, its important to remember the villains are in control of their own actions and discord wasn't trying to sadistic doom/rule over equestria for his own will like they were shown to be doing here.
