My thoughts on: "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?” (MLP season 5 , episode 12) (SPOILERS) · 9:44pm Jul 11th, 2015
I also found some aspects of this episode a bit lacking– the dreams were a bit odd, creative in some aspects but a bit annoying in others. I think if the dreams were more similar to scenarios like in the Nightmare Rarity comic, than I would have enjoyed them more. I liked Pinkie and Rainbow’s dreams but the over-absurdity made it work, especially Rainbow’s. Ponyville’s dream featured much of the same absurdity that PP/RD’s had (but better because the lack of a scenario/character specific features works because it is a very stretched shared dream) I found it so ridiculous it made me laugh and therefore I enjoyed it. I feel like this episode would have more impact if it spent more time in each of the mane six’ dreams.
So Princess Luna created the Tarantula because she was punishing herself for being Nightmare Moon? That’s…that’s…actually, that’s pretty cool. Seriously, that’s not a bad idea at all. Again, it probably should have come earlier than the the middle of Season FIVE, but that’s honestly kind of awesome.
Over all it was a good episode, I give this episode, a three (and half) cutie marks (out of six).
Personally we needed more Luna episodes. Celestia has been done so much, and poor Luna only gets 1-2 second cameos, so she barely has any development. Using this episode to explain that she has been punishing herself. Is a good explanation for me as to why we rarely see her.
What about Filthy Rich? His was the best!
3229616 OMG I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT HIM. I GOT TO SAY BETWEEN GIANT DERPY AND Sailor Macintosh xD. His riding money remind me of a bit of Dragon Ball ( as in riding cloud).
