S4 E25-26: Another Door Opens

What a fucking ending. That fight was incredible, the villain was a ton of fun, and they didn't overdo it. The whole alicorn thing was a huge overreaction last season, and I like that this entire season touched very little on her role as a princess right up until the last couple episodes. So what do they do? They make her official role the same thing she's been doing. "But wait," say the naysayers, "what about her status compared to the other five?" Her throne room is the fucking Council Of Friendship. That was so cool. I don't know, I feel like this whole thing was handled very well. Nothing felt over the top (except the crazy awesome fight), and developed in a logical, reasonable way. Tirek was a cool throwback to gen1, and made a fantastic antagonist. We really got to see the characters put everything on the table to beat an enemy they had no chance of defeating. And it paid off.

And let us not forget, LUNA SANG. LUNA GOT TO DO SOMETHING.

Also, my suspicion is that the chest/seed of harmony expended itself making the Fortress of Friendship, so we might not see those god-awful designs again. Why didn't I draw rainbow-Twilight for the final image? WHY DO YOU THINK?

As with last season, I am going to put together a season compilation image, so I shall save my closing words for that. Look forward to it, and thanks for viewing.
