Ah. Almost feels like a way they are trying to overcompensate fr her becoming a princess perhaps? Kinda due to the backlash and all they nerf her far too much.... I bet you can't figure out who my favorite character is . I have to watch it still. Waiting till nobody is on to interrupt.
I'm afraid that for people such as I, today was Doctor Who day, which overshadowed MLP. But what a magnificent day with both that and these opening episodes, and just to add some frosting, there was a Doctor Who reference in it!

The Kasrkin were just men. It made their actions all the more astonishing. Six white blurs, they fell upon the cultists, lasguns barking at close range. They wasted no shots. One shot, one kill. - Eisenhorn: Malleus

Also, do you think they deliberately foreshadowed next episode with Rainbow Dash's line "We're almost at Celestia and Luna's old castle," which is what the next episode is about.

Also Im curious as to where the plot juice came from. I am to assume Zecora must of pillaged it from the ruined castle. i wonder what else she has taken from there

This links up to the fact the Alicorn Amulet turns the bearer more evil...
So many questions about them now...
Perhaps alicorn magic is really just a title for high born magic that is restricted to the creme' of the crop? A possibility mind you. That or they were just reuising some old resources to make it easier. Oh anyways, overall I really enjoyed the season opener. Up until they enter the forest the pacing is phenominal. Once they go in it kinda falls off as the standard problem of they have to start rushing things they really shouldn't appears (also 3 minute luna tia battle is short). And yeah Twilight was a damsel in distress that seems to have mystically forgotten she is one of the greatest spell casters in all of Equestria (and probably ahs the potential to be not only the best of all ponies but one of the greatest of their world). But yeah overall it was great and I was kinda glad Spike is getting a more prominent role.
good to see they're back to making good episodes ^^ the end of season 3 was a huge dissapointment but this was just amazing and gave the writers plenty of scope to expand the MLP universe

My only real gripes with the episode were that it was far too contrived (really they all conveniently go into the dreaded forest at once to the same place but only them?), it felt like the journal was a tad bit shoe horned in (although a good concept), and it seemed to be trying to continue the story before promptly making it a gag slice of life episode that really jarred with it (but I don't care because Twilight gushing over books)
Ah just reminds me of just how memeprone that whole entire season opener was... really? A scepter of Twilight? Discord in a maid outfit? A drink that was white liquid? Tentacle vine thingies? Oh dear what the internet will do xD
