>I mean really, I have never felt so spit.
understandable and I emphasize with that. Despite the length of the special, I have had a much clearer mindset towards episode 13 and Rainbow Roadtrip as I have mentioned several times, becoming much easier to review than this episode but, what should one think about this in the end? The conflict shown in that episode was really simple and one would laugh at us for thinking too much about this premise but it´s so confusing at the same time because of its context that the laughs become background noises.

>it's pretty stupid. I don't like how it was pandered for pride month in media circles and /pol/'s hatred all the same.
I blame both sides. One cannot downvote the episode by itself but a part of my mind, leads you to do so because the staff and the fanbase (part of it) circlejeks lead to an artificial drama that one has set aside,forcing more effort from the reviewer while dealing with this episode.

>I;m not sure how this random couple over Lyra and Bon Bon or Octavia and Vinyl Scratch makes much sense. From what I hear it was the writers who requested it. it could easily be a calculated risk on Hasbro's part
whatever but calling it a risk,really?In the West?in 2019?I don´t know what´s worse: making it a huge deal or make it seem as a brave movement from the staff.Honestly this topic bores e a little bit because there is nothing deep nor productive to deal with over here.

>Figuring the social environment was safe enough that they get some protection from the twitter mobs and just never accepted (or writers ever thought they could get it through) before with the others. Oh well, shiping straight or otherwise I have never cared for. Personally though I think I like the aunts tbh.
well, the aunts don´t bother me at all. Although now that I think about it again, how many lesbian pictures are there on Derpi?Nearly 78k pics, beating Spike´s tag.That and countless threads about pairing characters at random so I suppose the fanbase got what it has been asking for.

>it skews more positive in opinion in some of the other corners. I have seen fair bit questioning the parents.
with the 2nd watch, I have had more positive views because I have checked that it´s pretty much a fairly standard CMC episode so by itself, it doesn´t bring much room to ruin it or make it more interesting.
