...Pinkie Pie. The line "Yeah, yeah. We get it. Light her up ladies!" from Forgotten Friendship gave me the laugh that I had been needing all week.
That made my day!

......and let me just say..... it was the BEST Equestria Girls Special EVAR!!!!!!!!
Pretty good. I liked it alot. Also.
I ship it. A lot. Look ast those sex eyes.
Also also.
I might write a story about Sunset finding something unkiddie friendly in Wallflower's bag.
But yeah. Good episode.
First off, I've been having technical problems. Sorry for all resultant delays. (They are still ongoing.)
Second, some people thought that I was unfair in my characterization of the human six in Forgotten Friendship vis-à-vis their treatment of Sunset after forgetting pretty much everything she'd done of note since the end of the first movie. Not all of that conversation took right here and in public, so some people might be wondering what in Tartarus I'm talking about.
Holy cow, This one had some ups and downs for me. Get your snacks, this review is gonna be a long one.
There are a lot of things that I liked about this EQG special, but also have some... things I question at the same time. Let's just talk about what happened first, then I'll list out the positives and negatives.
Lots of people have already said this, but: yeah, it was great. Second best EqG thing after Rainbow Rocks. Lots of good things, eg PONIES! Also Celestia not instantly being okay with Sunset. Also world-building. Also Trixie. Also... etc. A few bad things, eg the forced lyrics in the first song. But overall, great. ★★★★
I didn't think it was possible. But there is actually a character I hate more than Starlight Glimmer.
"Forgotten Friendship" is an....okay movie. It's not without its flaws, but not so bad that it stopped me from enjoying it, it has an interesting concept, and I genuinely felt that the stakes were high for Sunset.
That said.....Wallflower Blush. HOLY CRAP, Wallflower Blush!
Finfine mi spektis Forgotten Friendship, kaj mi havas opiniojn pri ĝi. Mi ankaŭ estas ebria do mi esprimos ilin (mi ŝatas viskion, ĉu mi iam diris tion?). Wallflower Blush estas laŭ mi nur kaculo. Ŝi forigis memorojn de Sunset kiel venĝo kontraŭ ŝi, ĉar ŝi estis sola. Nu mi tute ne havas kompaton por ŝi. Mi mem estis tute sola dum la gimnazio, kaj mi ne forigis memorojn de iu (kompreneble, ne eblis ke mi faru tion, sed tio estas nur detalo--eĉ kun la kapablo mi ne uzus ĝin tiel).
*breaths in and out* I love it! It was soooo good! Everything went well in that special and I love how it progressed. We call all feel what Wallflower gone through, the wanting of being notice, the knowing that you exist is a thing at least most of us feel right? I won't spoil all of it but I will say BEWARE THE FANART STAMPEDE. Beach scene plus fanbase equals a lot of fanart.
I'm excited, are you excited?! AH, I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED!!
I got it set to record on DVR tomorrow. I can't wait to see it!
Warning: This blog post contains mild spoilers for the new Equestria Girls special.
I mean, the last time we had NEW PONY was back in October, between the movie and the season finale and all.
BUT. I guess with Hasbro Toyfair and/or PresentPerfect's enthusiastic endorsement, I've been watching more of this silly little pony show lately. Catching up on old eps I missed the first time around, for one.
So, yesterday I watched EqG Forgotten Friendship for the 2nd time, and when I think I couldn't love Sunset Shimmer more, she proves I'm wrong. Before the special/film, I read the book and to be sincere they don't go so long from the 'original material', and this is a good thing I think.
Anyway, about this film (I'll call this way, if you don't mind), what I can say except that I loved it, but jumping all the less interesting things let's talk about a few memorable moments:
Yeah, I ended up watching it by some magic.
I thought you were supposed to be cleaning.
I took breaks and watched! And you're no less guilty!
Hay! I had no cleaning that I needed to do!
Okay, fair enough. Warning, there will be spoilers beyond this point. DO NOT READ AHEAD IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN FORGOTTEN FRIENDSHIP.

Today was the debut of an Equestria Girls special, "Forgotten Friendship", in which the Humane Six have somehow forgotten everything good that Sunset Shimmer has ever done. Sunset, not sure what was going on, asks Princess Twilight if they were still friends and if she was nice. Twilight affirms this, and Sunset travels to Equestria. Twilight tells her that there's one pony who would know. Sunset asks who, and then makes a realization.
I haven't seen "Forgotten Friendship" in full yet, but from what bits I saw on YouTube, my own headcanon got screwed (namely, that Sunset never got back to Equestria and never saw Princess Twilight and Princess Celestia until the events of Fallout: Equestria Girls).
Expect some retcon. There won't be much, but Chapter 31 at least will have to be re-written a bit.
...that Hasbro is doing the shipping for the brony community. After watching Forgotten Friendship again today it dawned on me that Sunset x SciTwi is a canon ship. If it wasn't, Sunset would've acknowledged all the girls instead of just Twilight. Then to add to that Twilight was the first one to hug Sunset after they regained their memories. Therefore, SciSet is the OTP.
(I know someone somewhere has already posted this, but I'm kinda slow sometimes. )
I’m thinking of writing a fic about this alternate ending tv Tropes pointed out
If Sunset hadn’t jumped in front of the beam from the memory stone the humane 6 would have ended up as middle/elementary schoolers in high schoolers bodies.
Would that fic be well received
I’m terrified to post it
Hello all!
Lightning Striker here.
I am so excited for Forgetten Friendship, with the awesome and amazing Sunset Shimmer in it!
What am I in?
Huh? Oh, hi Sunny!
Hi. Now what am I in?
Nothing. It's the other Sunset.
Ooooohhh. Okay.
Yeah, it comes on in just a few minutes.
Aren't you supposed to be cleaning?
