F-F-F- I have no words, damnit, damnit, damnit! I wasn't hyped for this episode but I am now, goddamnit! Aaaah, when is saturday coming!? Two days!? I can't wait! *ZAPS IN TIME*
Brace yourselves the Starswirl/ Doctor Hooves stuff is coming. Ok so this looks like it might actually be a serious thing... but how much you wanna bet it's because Twilight freaks out that she gets all banged up? (Time paradoxes are fun!)
Technically Twilight just broke a law of Time Travel, "Never come in contact with your past self and if you do make sure past self does not recognize or make contact with future self." So yeah depending on which time travel rules you follow, Twilight just caused riff in the Time Space Continuum. GREAT SCOTT!
And once again, I am super hyped for this Saturday. If this simple preview was epic, just imagine the rest of the episode. Wow! Come at me, Saturday! I'm ready!
SWEET PRINCESS CELESTIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TWILIGHT JUST SAW HER FUTURE SELF!!!!!! ANOTHER IMPORTANT EPISODE TO THIS DATE!!!! I MUST KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AND FUTURE TWILIGHT WEARING BLACK SUIT BUT DAMAGED!!!!! I HAVE TO SEE IT!!!!!!! ^_^
*sqqqueees* This is fantastic! I love the John Conner/Solid Snake look to Future Twilight. I figure it'll be a case of causing the problem by trying to prevent it but I'm really hoping for a huge love letter to all the sci-fi/time travel fans out there.
Twilight's surroundings flared and twisted around her, and she watched helplessly as her past self disappeared from view. The time spell's duration had ended, and with it her chance to save her past, present, and future.
"-go back and try to warn yourself about the future," she finished lamely. "It makes you freak out and cause the very apocalypse you were trying to stop oh what was even the point?!"
YOU are not scientifically possible! I'm gonna have to remember that... Also, now that wars are recognized by ponies, I suppose wars have occurred in the past. So many questions, future Tuesday Twilight, why did you have to leave so soon? Tuesday? So they use the 7-day week system as well? So many questions for less than 1 and a half minutes.
I think I am gonna watch this episode with my gun. as soon as it's over, I'm just gonna off myself because my life will be complete and I will die happy.
Future Twilight looks pretty badass. I'm disappointed though that the message was "whatever you do, don't..." That pretty much seals it as a self-caused mess of overreaction in my book. I'll hope to be pleasantly surprised though, and either way I'll be sure to enjoy more Twilight on the ride.
Things I like about this 1. Continuity reference to a off hand bit of dialog. 2. 80's Scifi reference. 3. The phrase "Epic pony war in the Distant Future."
I have a strong feeling that the future Twilight is trying to say don't go to pinkie's costume party on Tuesday. either that or she is just trolling her past self
Is it just me, or is future twilight's voice a tiny bit more high pitched then normal twilight. I'm taking a guess it's not a very significant issue either. They like driving poor twilight insane though. =X
I will say that I don't see how it could be "Whatever you do, don't use the time travel spell"...
It just doesn't make any sense with the way that scene was written. Present Twilight doesn't believe time-travel is possible, know how to do it or where the spells are, and future Twilight tells her all of these things and shows only mild impatience in doing so. They aren't important details to her... but if her whole message was "Don't ever use them!" then it's just too much carrying of the idiot ball for me and the delivery seems all wrong.
I suspect instead it will be something non-cataclysmic and yet important enough to Twilight to use the spells in the first place... missing an assignment, forgetting Celestia's birthday, whatever... and the damage of future Twilight will all be achieved over the course of the episode as she panics.
also twilight's immediate assumption that her future self's condition was caused by warfare, as well as the way she calmly made that assumption implies that wars are not unheard of in equestria's history
Solid Snake Sparkle looks SO BADASS. I really want to know what the hell happened to her.
I mean, I know that there's almost no way that it isn't going to be her doing it to herself while panicking about the future, and then going back in time to try to tell herself not to worry, but still.
It tells you this is an episode clip right at the start, and saves any major spoilers until you CLICK on it...why would you even LOOK unless you knew/wanted spoilers?
Ah, I knew I would regret watching this. Friday is going to feel like a giant waste of time.
I'm hoping they go with something more creative than the self-fulfilling future ending, but even if they don't Twilight looks to be in top form here and that's enough for me. I've missed her presence in general this season.
That was probably the single weirdest scene I've ever seen in this show ever. I almost thought it was some really well done fan animation, not part of the actual show...what in the HECK?? Beat-up Twilight, mentions of war, Star Swirl the Bearded, Twi acting crazy adorkable...my brain can't handle it.
BTW anyone noticed that the BGM used in the clip uses a melody similar to that from "Return of Harmony pt 1" specifically when TS is trying to decipher Discord's riddle.
YESSSSSSS I WAS EXPECTING oh god caps lock. I was expecting Twilight to just get a LETTER or something from the future, not to actually bodily time travel! Here's a blank check, just write in however many YES's you need. I'm willing to give all of them.
Of course she's going to end up repeating the same mistake self-fulfilling prophecy style, it's no use patting yourself on the back for being so deductive; it's a common time-travel trope.
The lesson in the end ought to be interesting, I can't wait!
She didn't even aged and got bruised and eye patch and all....very weird Oh about that warning.....darn it! Whatever it is...twilight have to be very alert about it! This episode is worth a wait
@Atomicmonkey >>also twilight's immediate assumption that her future self's condition was caused by warfare, as well as the way she calmly made that assumption implies that wars are not unheard of in equestria's history
--Yes I took serious note of that too. Though Twilight's calmness would also seem to suggest that while the concept of war is known to ponies it's a distant enough concept that a modern Equestrian can't really conceive how terrible it would be, though it could also be that Twilight is simply too busy nerding out over the whole time travel is real scenario to waste brain power on anything else. After all, it's not like ponies are secretly a war-like race who are only biding their time with jolly frivolities until the next great chance to earn honor by shedding blood on the field of battle :-)
Anyway, I don't normal watch preview clips, preferring not to taint my viewing with spoilers, but had a good feeling that for this plot it would only be the setup scene, so just this once I did and now I am so stoked for this episode. Saturday cannot get here soon enough.
Also, inb4 the message was going to be "Whatever you do, don't get all paranoid about potential bad stuff happening!", thereby making a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I am SO PSYCHED about this episode! Looks like it's gonna be even better than Lesson Zero. Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait!!
I wonder if this episode is partially a nod to Fallout: Equestria? And I can't wait to see how this story unfolds. An apocalyptic future? Future Twilight having to learn stealth abilities to get by? Present Twilight going mad again? This might be my new favorite episode. 8D
Wow,just wow. I think this episode, ifStudi B does everything right, gonna be the closest thing we´ll ever get to a perfect MLP episode. I mean, look at that FutureTwi or how PresentTwi reacted! Also Scars! And War! And EVERYTHING! Wars are canon, ponies can actually bleed and get scarred (we haven´t seen anypony with scars till now, correct?) and time travel is possible...i think i need new pants, please excuse me.
If Twilight can survive multiple heavy objects falling from above and crashing onto her head, and then look none the worse for wear in the next scene, just what kind of craziness has to happen for her to end up losing an eye? Only thing I can think of is that she tried helping Rarity make some costumes, and things went epically wrong.
And here's some words I never thought I would say: Wow, I can't believe it has been so long since the last Twilight episode!
Lastly, people, CANNON is a weapon, CANON is that which counts, in terms of continuity. Example: Celestia's moon CANNON is not CANON. This PSA was brought to you by Ben and Jerry's, whose dessert does not last long in the desert.

ReplyDeleteHYPE LEVELS TO THE MAX!
ReplyDeleteOh, shit I am so fucking excited.
Even though I think this episode will be pretty predictable.
"Is there some sort of epic pony war in the distant future or something..."
ReplyDeleteIt Shalll be done.
Nice job breaking it, present!Twilight. :P
ReplyDelete@Arcane Scroll
ReplyDeletePresent Twi: Is there some kind of epic Pony war in the future?
The writers trolling the fanfic epics SOOOOO HARRRRD with that line! And I love it! XD
And the next line: I'm from next Tuesday.
I lost it and was bellowing laughter in the lab.
Looks like Old Snake.
ReplyDeletesaw it before it got posted. such a hipster

ReplyDeleteDAT FALLOUT EQUESTRIA REFERENCE.
ReplyDeleteActually, I'm from next tuesday morning.
ReplyDeleteYYYEEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

TWILIGHT. SPARKLE. IS. BEST. PONY. PLEASE.
This looks incredible can't wait to wath the hell out of it, I love hearing Twilight talk too much.
ReplyDeleteNext teusday morning? Shit must really be going down for her to look that badass.
ReplyDeletenow THIS!!!! is what a call a good trailer
ReplyDeleteThat HAS to be some shout out to some fanfic. I'm putting my money on Fallout: Equestria with a bit of Snake thrown in...
ReplyDelete@Yellow 13 The message Future Twi was trying to say: Whatever you do, DON'T LET PINKIE PIE CARRY THE NITROGLYCERIN!!
ReplyDeleteTechnically Twilight just broke a law of Time Travel, "Never come in contact with your past self and if you do make sure past self does not recognize or make contact with future self." So yeah depending on which time travel rules you follow, Twilight just caused riff in the Time Space Continuum. GREAT SCOTT!
ReplyDeleteWar is cannon!
ReplyDeleteWar is now cannon for all you beat nicks
ReplyDeleteWow; they must've really fucked things up in a week.
ReplyDeleteHoly shit, I am PUMPED to see this now.

ReplyDelete@crazyredemu
ReplyDeleteWar. Cannon. Me laugh.
Eyepatch? Scar? Time travel? Mention of war?
ReplyDeleteAnd it's hilarious?
Aa-a-ck...*gurgle*
Can I induce a coma until Saturday morning? Seriously. This looks brilliant.
@Jimperator Twilight's future self was warning her not to try making waffles.
ReplyDeleteYou know what happens when Twi tries to cook. ;3
this has me far more pumped for the episode than Iron Will did for the last one.
ReplyDeletemaybe because this still leaves a ton of mystery as to what happens unlike the Iron Will clip.
Man, now I can't wait. Twilight Sparkle being even more awesome? My head will just explode from awesomness.
ReplyDeleteNo, really. We need a "No Spoiler Mode". This is really aggravating. :/
ReplyDeleteTwilight, you nerdmonger! You blew up the future because you can't let yourself have a word in edgewise when you talk to yourself!
ReplyDelete@SparkCloud There are dozens of stories that involve a huge war/the apocalypse xD
ReplyDeleteBut FO:E is probably the most famous.
just noticed both this and lesson zero occurred on tuesdays... Tuesday derives it's name from Mars the god of war... that means... crazy fan theories
ReplyDelete"Whatever you do... DON'T BLINK."
ReplyDeleteFallout Equestria is cannon

TWIME TRAVEL
ReplyDeleteTwilight! You've created a time paradox! You can't go changing the future like that!
ReplyDeleteOh wow. Saturday, get your ass over here NOW!
ReplyDeleteSeriously wasn't expecting that. Holy wow.
ReplyDeleteIs it a case of save the cheerleader, save the world or the future refused to change?
ReplyDeletealso, WAR!
*sqqqueees* This is fantastic! I love the John Conner/Solid Snake look to Future Twilight. I figure it'll be a case of causing the problem by trying to prevent it but I'm really hoping for a huge love letter to all the sci-fi/time travel fans out there.
ReplyDeletePONY WARS ARE NOW CANNON!
ReplyDeleteThis episode will be amazing.
ReplyDeleteI have been waiting all my life for this episode. ALL
ReplyDeleteMY
LIFE.
...
AND YES.
"Whatever you do, don't-"
ReplyDeleteTwilight's surroundings flared and twisted around her, and she watched helplessly as her past self disappeared from view. The time spell's duration had ended, and with it her chance to save her past, present, and future.
"-go back and try to warn yourself about the future," she finished lamely. "It makes you freak out and cause the very apocalypse you were trying to stop oh what was even the point?!"
"What ever you do... don't use the time travel spell."
ReplyDeleteI called it first.
The eyepatch, the sneaking suit, the mullet and the scar is classic 1960's era Big Boss.

Someone on the team is a fan of MGS3 :)
OH GOD YES.. SOOO MUCH YES!
ReplyDeleteSo Future Twilight is from NEXT Tuesday Morning!!!The future has been rapid and deadly already???? :O
ReplyDelete@Dr. Orbital Death-Ray Plus, she also has the typical facial scar, headband, and messy hair!
ReplyDeleteAnd the time limit not letting her get enough of the message out to make sense!
All the tropes in one! G-knee-ous! ;D
:O That is all I can say/do when looking at this.
ReplyDeleteFUCK MAKING INTELLEGENT AND/OR FUNNY COMMENTS
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS THE GREATEST THING
I'm going to guess that future!Twilight's warning is: "Don't use time-travel spells, it's a bad idea."
ReplyDeleteYOU are not scientifically possible!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to remember that...
Also, now that wars are recognized by ponies, I suppose wars have occurred in the past. So many questions, future Tuesday Twilight, why did you have to leave so soon? Tuesday? So they use the 7-day week system as well? So many questions for less than 1 and a half minutes.
WOW WOW WOW
ReplyDeleteWIBBLY WOBBLY TIMY WIMY PONY WONY!
ReplyDeleteAlso..oh Twilight..why u gotta be so adorkable!?
...Yeah, this is gonna be a fun episode.
I think I am gonna watch this episode with my gun. as soon as it's over, I'm just gonna off myself because my life will be complete and I will die happy.
ReplyDelete"What ever you do... don't use the time travel spell."
ReplyDeleteI called it first.
W... WOOOW
ReplyDeleteFuture Twilight looks pretty badass. I'm disappointed though that the message was "whatever you do, don't..." That pretty much seals it as a self-caused mess of overreaction in my book. I'll hope to be pleasantly surprised though, and either way I'll be sure to enjoy more Twilight on the ride.
ReplyDelete@Naahdude HUZZAH!! TWILIGHT HAS BEEN DOUBLED!!
ReplyDeleteOh, now I'm so hyped about next Tuesday... I mean about Saturday. This is going to be so awesome, I can hardly wait!
ReplyDeleteNEXT TUESDAY REFERENCE !
ReplyDeleteI CRIED
Things I like about this
ReplyDelete1. Continuity reference to a off hand bit of dialog.
2. 80's Scifi reference.
3. The phrase "Epic pony war in the Distant Future."
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T TRY TO PREVENT A CATASTROPHY!!!
ReplyDelete"You're not scientifically possible"
ReplyDeleteHnggg....ehh...I need some medicine for this headache. "Epic Pony War"; those words will live in infamy imho.
I have a strong feeling that the future Twilight is trying to say don't go to pinkie's costume party on Tuesday. either that or she is just trolling her past self
ReplyDeleteTwilight, you've created a time paradox!
ReplyDeleteThis has epic potential.
ReplyDeleteIn semi-related news, Konami has announced a new Metal Gear game, titled Metal Gear Twilight: Harmony's Horn.
TERMINATOR REFERENCE? IN A GIRLS CARTOON?
ReplyDeletethis is too good:

ReplyDeleteCANT WAIT GOD!!!!!
If that line isn't a reference to Fallout: Equestria I don't know what is.

ReplyDeleteinb4 massive debate on Saturday about whether show's depiction of time traveling made sense.
ReplyDeleteI'm very excited for this episode! So excited!
ReplyDelete@Naahdude
ReplyDeletehmm.... nah.
i didn't even make it.
id say it has way more MGS references than eq. fallout and terminator (lol)

ReplyDeleteYou came into the topic. The clip doesn't autoplay. No excuses, you spoiled yourself.

ReplyDelete*ding*
ReplyDeleteTime wimey detector detected stuff!
all I have to say is....
YES!!!
THAT TWILIGHT!
And let the overreaction begin.
ReplyDeleteHeh, I can't wait to see how this plays out.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me, or is future twilight's voice a tiny bit more high pitched then normal twilight. I'm taking a guess it's not a very significant issue either. They like driving poor twilight insane though. =X
JUDGEMENT DAY
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for this episode
She looks very Snake Plissken here. Yeah, that's right, Plissken, I know who Big Boss and/or Old Snake's look was based on... :P
ReplyDelete@Rising Comet
ReplyDeleteBehold the glory.
Let the fan art begin.
ReplyDeleteAlso, more metal gear ponies.
I will say that I don't see how it could be "Whatever you do, don't use the time travel spell"...
ReplyDeleteIt just doesn't make any sense with the way that scene was written. Present Twilight doesn't believe time-travel is possible, know how to do it or where the spells are, and future Twilight tells her all of these things and shows only mild impatience in doing so.

inb4 1.000.000 fanfics about timelines
ReplyDeleteepic pony wars are canon!
ReplyDeletealso twilight's immediate assumption that her future self's condition was caused by warfare, as well as the way she calmly made that assumption implies that wars are not unheard of in equestria's history
Solid Snake Sparkle looks SO BADASS. I really want to know what the hell happened to her.
ReplyDeleteI mean, I know that there's almost no way that it isn't going to be her doing it to herself while panicking about the future, and then going back in time to try to tell herself not to worry, but still.
SO BADASS.
Cant wait to see what kind of pics are going to be posted lol
ReplyDelete"Whatever you do, don't..."
ReplyDeleteYou can hardly get less clear than that.
@CrispyYoshi
ReplyDeleteIt tells you this is an episode clip right at the start, and saves any major spoilers until you CLICK on it...why would you even LOOK unless you knew/wanted spoilers?
It's not really rocket science here.
@ MyBoyJ
ReplyDeleteYou are now my new best friend.
So Future Twi is a Badass Bookworm? That makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteAh, I knew I would regret watching this. Friday is going to feel like a giant waste of time.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping they go with something more creative than the self-fulfilling future ending, but even if they don't Twilight looks to be in top form here and that's enough for me. I've missed her presence in general this season.
@Rising Comet
ReplyDeleteNo problem.
Metal Gear?!?
ReplyDelete"Actually, I'm from next Tuesday morning"
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!
@Arcane Scroll
ReplyDeleteThat would certainly qualify as an "epic pony war!" XD
YES, YES, and YES!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait until Saturday!!!!
ReplyDeleteTo the Canterlot archives (Starswirl the Bearded section)!! We will remedy that problem.
Allons-y!
@Sneaky Beeftaco
ReplyDeleteMetal Gear?
And then Balefire Bombs.
ReplyDeleteMake this happen. Make this happen hard.

ReplyDeleteOH MY DEAR SWEET CELESTIA...
ReplyDeleteSaturday can not come fast enough O.O
ReplyDeleteYES YES YES YES
ReplyDeleteIs Canterlot burning?
Ooh, I hope it is...
Big..... boss?
ReplyDeleteThat was probably the single weirdest scene I've ever seen in this show ever. I almost thought it was some really well done fan animation, not part of the actual show...what in the HECK?? Beat-up Twilight, mentions of war, Star Swirl the Bearded, Twi acting crazy adorkable...my brain can't handle it.
ReplyDeleteNow I really can't wait to see the full ep! :D
BTW anyone noticed that the BGM used in the clip uses a melody similar to that from "Return of Harmony pt 1" specifically when TS is trying to decipher Discord's riddle.
ReplyDeleteBUT THE FUTURE REFUSED TO CHANGE.
ReplyDeleteTwilight Snake is best Snake. All of my want!
ReplyDeleteMost underrated part in this preview: At 0:39, present!Twilight's adorable back leg twitch.
ReplyDeleteMost underrated part in this preview: At 0:39, present!Twilight's adorable back leg twitch.
ReplyDeleteIt is destiny. It was foretold in the stars. The hands of the gods have guided mankind forward through countless generations and civilisations...
ReplyDelete...just so it can witness this one episode.
My body is not ready, and yet my body has always been ready.
This episode is going to be awesome.
ReplyDeleteYESSSSSSS
ReplyDeleteI WAS EXPECTING oh god caps lock. I was expecting Twilight to just get a LETTER or something from the future, not to actually bodily time travel! Here's a blank check, just write in however many YES's you need. I'm willing to give all of them.
Calling it now:
ReplyDeleteStable time loop, and all that stuff that was wrong with "future twilight" was self inflicted due 'overreacting'
:O
ReplyDeleteI cant believe what I just saw. EPIC PONY WAR!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletelol, this looks amazing. I definitely was expecting it to be some kind of prank where we don't actually see it.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited, but just remember, if you get your expectations up too high, nopony can live up to them ;)
That clip sums up why I have no doubt that Twilight is best pony. Sorry AJ - time travel + absolute geekness is just tooooo good
ReplyDeleteDON'T DRINK THE PUNCH!!!
ReplyDeleteTIME PARADOX!
ReplyDelete@Path Finder
ReplyDeleteC'mon man, she's a magical unicorn that demands SCIENCE!
Of course she's going to end up repeating the same mistake self-fulfilling prophecy style, it's no use patting yourself on the back for being so deductive; it's a common time-travel trope.
ReplyDeleteThe lesson in the end ought to be interesting, I can't wait!
She didn't even aged and got bruised and eye patch and all....very weird
ReplyDeleteOh about that warning.....darn it! Whatever it is...twilight have to be very alert about it!
This episode is worth a wait
awesome !!
ReplyDeleteOH MY DEAR SWEET CELESTIA...

DONE !
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S IT
GAME OVER.
WE OFFICIALLY HAVE REACHED THE PEAK OF AWESOMENESS
THE SHOW CANNOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS.
I'm throwing my money at my screen, but nothing is happening! can someone help?
ReplyDeleteInb4 twilight +future twilight shipping
ReplyDeleteEven the clip we saw is also from the future lol
ReplyDeleteInception!
In the grim future of next Tuesday there is only war.
ReplyDeleteso whats with future twilight going all big boss/naked snake?
ReplyDeleteAlso, inb4 the message was going to be "Whatever you do, don't get all paranoid about potential bad stuff happening!", thereby making a self-fulfilling prophecy.
ReplyDelete@midnight_quill
ReplyDeleteAll of my agreed's!
How wibbily wobbly. I hope her eye is ok.
ReplyDeleteeye patches now cannon
ReplyDeleteWhats the bigger/better reference Terminator or Metal Gear Solid
or epic pony war
also how about that BG music? sounds pretty sick to me
"Actually Im From next Tuesday Morning"
ReplyDeleteMe: fuckin hell she must have had some weekend!
I Want it! I Need it!! I Really like her Mane !!!
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who thought that the riff when Future!Twilight started talking sounded like the 11th Doctor's theme? :3
ReplyDeleteOhmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh!!!
ReplyDeleteI am SO PSYCHED about this episode! Looks like it's gonna be even better than Lesson Zero. Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait!!
I wonder if this episode is partially a nod to Fallout: Equestria? And I can't wait to see how this story unfolds. An apocalyptic future? Future Twilight having to learn stealth abilities to get by? Present Twilight going mad again? This might be my new favorite episode. 8D
SO MUCH TOLERATION TO THAT CLIP.
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY ADORE HOW TWI HANDLES HER FUTURE SELF, MUCH USE CANTERLOCK.
No really, that was cruel to show me that, now all I want is to skip friday!
To the Star-Swirl Wing!
@Flutterfan Its Time Travel it never makes sense. Unless its Back to the Future
ReplyDeleteWait! There are time travels spells in the Canterlot Archives!?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteLet's all break into Canterlot, steal the spell, and time travel to Saturday morning!! That makes sense right? ':)
Wow,just wow.
ReplyDeleteI think this episode, ifStudi B does everything right, gonna be the closest thing we´ll ever get to a perfect MLP episode.
I mean, look at that FutureTwi or how PresentTwi reacted!
Also Scars! And War! And EVERYTHING! Wars are canon, ponies can actually bleed and get scarred (we haven´t seen anypony with scars till now, correct?) and time travel is possible...i think i need new pants, please excuse me.

ReplyDeleteI've heard that they aren't supposed to read fanfics.
If Twilight can survive multiple heavy objects falling from above and crashing onto her head, and then look none the worse for wear in the next scene, just what kind of craziness has to happen for her to end up losing an eye? Only thing I can think of is that she tried helping Rarity make some costumes, and things went epically wrong.
ReplyDeleteAnd here's some words I never thought I would say: Wow, I can't believe it has been so long since the last Twilight episode!
Lastly, people, CANNON is a weapon, CANON is that which counts, in terms of continuity. Example: Celestia's moon CANNON is not CANON. This PSA was brought to you by Ben and Jerry's, whose dessert does not last long in the desert.
ho shit that was epic
ReplyDeleteOh, and btw, pony wars are now cannon!!
ReplyDeletesqueeeee!!!!! :)
