I haven't watched anything from this season yet (tbqh, with the exception of the Granny Smith Goes Carousing episode, none of the recent season has struck my interest), but this one's actually piqued my curiosity.
It's a random ship, between two random characters, which nobody expected which, somehow, managed to get me a tiny bit invested in it. And I was a big fan of the episode that jump-started this particular pairing, so to get a sequel to it...
I mean, I might actually have to watch this season now.
Bruh, you gotta check it all out; you're missing a good season here. I missed the last couple before catching today's, but that's more a function of my SatAM schedule than the entertainment value.
Besides, how we gonna get more Poshfics if we don't have mommy episodes and daddy episodes getting together in your head and making googly-eyes at one other?
I actually liked this one, mostly because of a surprise inclusion that just from the synopsis I wasn't expecting at all.

Yeah I'll admit this whole season hasn't really been my favourite. The whole "Friendship School" premise is just so poorly thought out (though I do love all the student characters. They're adorable) and the plots have been rather predictable and generally lacking in substance. However, I really enjoyed this episode, as the emotion actually felt pretty sincere, not to mention there were some pretty good gags (the whole "leaning" thing cracked me up).
On another note, it's really good to see you still alive and kicking. It's been so long since you posted anything at all I was afraid for a while that you were gonna just disappear for another few years. Please don't toy with my emotions like that!!!
Horse Play and The Parent Map were great episodes honestly and I would definitely recommend them. However, this season overall is kind of lack luster overall. I think the School concept has been poorly integrated especially since we already had two aspects: the map and Pillar Six, that do have a lot more potential. I would say to at least give each episode at least a watch, but if I had to just say so, the two I mentioned are definitely worth it.
