    Really? I hope that "Saddle" is the name of the ruling family (or, if it's part of Equestria, the family to whom power has been delegated by the diarchy), then. If "Saddle Arabia" is the name of a piece of geography and not the name of a polity or subdivision, I'm afraid I will have to rage.

    well...as for Littlest Pet Shop...
    meh so far...better than i feared but nothin special
    will give it a couple more episodes to try and grab me
    Ponies not only make ME want to be a better person than I was before they entered my life, they make me want to HELP OTHERS be better people too.

    And that is a GOOD thing by any definition.

    Not at all. It's on the level with pretty much all the other 2-parters, as others have said. Sure, there are a couple logical holes, and a couple things are clearly there for the purpose of selling toys, but those are small. Though I do plan on rewatching it in better quality to pick up on the things I missed.

    Now, for my other thoughts:

    The hints of Twilight's destiny have gotten even stronger. I really hope that pays off well in the future, in a way that does not involve alicorn Twilight. I also want to see exactly why Luna is feeling apprehensive.

    I forsee much RariLight. The way she put her hoof over Twilight's at the end was just very... shippy.

    And speaking of the end, I think that song is going to be playing through my head for a while. It was a bit of a pleasant surprise, really. I do love me reprises.

    I would like to see a bit more about Somber/Sombra. Whether its in the show proper or in fanfiction doesn't matter quite so much.

    So we see Trixie statues in the ads, and Twilight performing magic in some kind of arena (levitating animals). The scene with Celestia and those ... horses seem to take place at that event, so Celestia is there to withness Twilight competing against Trixie? That seems ... bigger than I would expect. Trixie must have been really busy planning and arranging this

    I doubt they care enough to specify that sort of thing. And aren't required to follow our reasoning behind names.

    Then again this show has reference Aztec mythology so they might.

    Totally Arabian horses though.

    I suppose. It still seems flimsy to me, though, and hard to reconcile with the comment by one of the Crystal Ponies about King Sombra "coming to power". That, to me, suggests a coup rather than ascension via whatever means was legal in the Crystal Empire a thousand plus years ago. That, in turn, suggests that the Crystal Empire was just as important to his plans a thousand plus years ago as it is now, and that his motivations go beyond simple covetousness.

    I'm aware that I'm treading into territory not really touched on by the show at this point, on the basis of highly circumstantial evidence. But that's the point, and where we agree. For Sombra to be effective, we should know either a lot more, or nothing at all.

    Unless I missed something (which is entirely plausible), I don't think that competition is something Trixie planned, I would say it is more like the Unicorn equivalent to the young flyers competition.

    I don't know, I meant De Lancie sold the character. He played chaotic tricksters before, he did a lot to make something not very different from Sombra (Discord could have been unintelligent storm of chaotic magic energy and it would change little in episode's plot) work. Remove this (by dubbing in other language) and a lot of reason of it working is gone.

    Had Sombra been voiced by James Earl Jones, the actor alone would have the character 20% cooler and brought comparisons to his previous roles, but as it is, Sombra is what Discord could have been. But scarier, IMHO.

    I agree, and don't forget what Celestia said about the Crystal Empire. Namely, it has powerful magic that effects (affects?) the entirety of Equestria. In fact, if it's as powerful as it seems to be, then taking over the Empire should be the first step to any plans of conquest.

    Its nothing to do with the episode but Gak is like this a softer brighter colored silly putty ooze... that was heavily advertised in commercials today. Like with 4 in row in a break.

    Its 90s and its back.

    Why Am I feeling that the first two episodes are
    Spoiler
    Show
    just the beginning for last two episodes. Maybe King Sombra grew from the horn and began to wreck havoc on Equestria (See Desolated Apple Acres and Carousel Boutique Screenshots might be either his rule or nightmare and fear of Applejack and Rarity).

    On the speculation:
    Spoiler
    Show
    What is the beginning of Crystal Ponies?
    - Earth Ponies who were mutated from Crystal Hearts.
    - Product of Extensive Unicorn- Earth Pony interracial romance, ala Bretons from Elderscrolls.
    - Magic Shampoo that shines when they are happy.
    Scootaloo is
    - an orphan?
    - a pegasus raised by earth pony parents, thus her inability to fly (Maybe she fell from the clouds as a baby and fell into a cabbage patch).
