So, I have recently given to this episode another try and comment about it even though in comparison to what´s coming next, it will feel somewhat short for reviewing it. Nonetheless, it does bring a few aspects that certainly were unexpected:

So, here I give my replies: She Talks To Angel (Season 9,Episode 18)

>>4687
>Angel Bunny in Fluttershy's body was not something I ever wanted
I don´t think that anyone has asked for that. I man, what could come from that plot device? Maybe there have been fans of the body swap fetish with plots that change the voices of the ones involved.

They will be disappointed with this episode because Andrea Libman keep delivering the same voice all over the episode (even though she makes it apparent with the changes of tone and arrogance) and Angel doesn´t talk at all.

>but man it was much more awesome then expected.
which means that you don´t need to have exceptional settings in order to entertain and deliver a message of empathy. Going to Seed did this as well and it only involved the Apple Family and the Sweet Apple Acres. For this episode, there have been two protagonists and two supporting characters and that was it (except the moment when Twilight and Spike appeared but that served as functional sign for telling that Fluttershy was desperately asking for help)

>It may sound a bit strange but I thought they nailed Angel Bunny. I couldn't believe how much it felt like another character in Fluttershy's body over just making it sound like Fluttershy was simply being rude. This is more interesting then it first seems because Angel Bunny's character itself really hasn't been explored much beyond "Angel Bunny is a jerk and pest"
that´s the key point. This drives to a question of: where do we draw the line about non talkative animals/species being rational or not? I mean, we have seen Angel acting like a jerk most of the time (Putting Your Hoof Down comes to my mind) to Fluttershy and it´s really ironic that he has that name when the actual results show literally the opposite. Sure, he has had personal preferences and tastes but was that enough to tell that the brain works enough to be expressive and go beyond intuitive responses?

The question even gets more twisted when the ordinary characters are colourful ponies in this universe.... God, my brain is going to implode if I think too much about this.
