    Celestia's confidence was shaken when she got blasted unconscious by Queen Chrysalis, and is fearful of loosing her empire now. She stepped in and fought Chrysalis in Twilight's place because she didn't believe Twi would be strong enough to defeat her on her own, and probably was terrified that they had lost everything when she woke up in the cocoon. She had always planned that Twilight would be their protector, but at this point decided that she had to stop being so soft on her and push her to become stronger so she could face threats that were beyond Celestia's power.

    • @MLPSilverQuill
      @MLPSilverQuill  10 ปีที่แล้ว +59

      A good idea, and I'd like to challenge it to go further:
      The Mane 6 have been the strength behind Twilight in every conflict, and Twilight couldn't have won without them. So why would Celestia forbid her former student from enlisting their support?

    • @Galhar
      @Galhar 10 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Because as an Allicorn she's immortal, she must learn to do it without them eventually. Better to do it now than to fail when she needs them and they're too old to help.

      Ah! No one has said she's immortal. Even if she were, I doubt she'd stop making friends over her life.
      And she needed their help in the end, so if the goal were to teach her to act alone then it did not succeed. She won because she chose her friends over power.

    • @Galhar
      @Galhar 10 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Most generally assume Allicorns are inherently immortal, since Celestia ruled for over a thousand years but I suppose it's true that immortality is unconfirmed for Twilight. As for her choice, maybe that was the point. Maybe Celestia knew they needed one more key, expected Discord's betrayal and in turn Tirek's betrayal of Discord and engineered a situation where the friends would be hostages so she would get the key.

    The part where she battles Tirok never bothered me. Before she was trying to control how much magic she used so as not to seem different than before but was unable to because it was the combined magic of four alicorns. The magic could be contained like before resulting in controllable bursts of it. During the battle Twilight was not trying to control it, she was giving it her all and letting it all run loose and besides I think shooting a beam of magic is all simpler than teleportation.

      Do people really complain about that? Not only was it epic, but her library just got destroyed! She only just managed to save owlicious! That's a big deal! However, it would have been better if she reverted to her nightmare form during the fight. I am quite sure she has one.

    Twilight Sparkle is concerned about her Butt and is feeling depressed. But there's no time do dwell as Equestria's in danger from the evil butt and the royal ponies cannot help. Twilight travels to farts to try to help, where she becomes separated from her friends and all seems lost. The villain's arrogance creates an opening, and her friends reunite to defeat their enemy with the power of butt.
    That conveniently solves everything. Twilight learns a lesson that answers her personal dilemma, as she's rewarded with the new Butt.

  • @moonallmoon
    @moonallmoon 9 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    5:10 I'd like to bring a different perspective to light. I interpreted the song in a different way - instead of the theme being 'You are a princess now, therefore everything will be fine', I saw it as, 'You will find a way to make things right, as you have done before; that is why you are a princess'.
    We've seen Twilight struggle with conflicts before. While I can think of no problems that exactly fit this one, we've seen that she is capable of beating the odds and pulling through to a good ending. She became a princess BECAUSE she was able to fix a problem, and the song could simply be saying that she has proven herself strong enough to deal with this situation.

    She lost her friends, she lost her, family, she lost her mentor and now her home and precious books. Before she was nuking it (as we say in the Navy) and over thinking as she was trying to control it. Now she is pissed and with ostensibly nothing left to lose she just lets loose, no holds barred.

      Plus, as for Twilight not being known by him, I believe that Tirek would've stayed out of the public's eye for sometime since a creature like him would stick out like a sore thumb, cloaked or not. As such, he'd miss Twilight's coronation.
      Plus, Discord has this "but you didn't ask" thing when it comes to this sort of stuff and Celestia knows that well enough to bet on it.
      As for the window stain? It was a bit of a rushed plan. Oversights were likely. Though it'd be hilarious if there was a scene with the princesses and it dawns on them.

    Hey, I know folks rag on the whole "Everfree losing its teeth" thing but did anyone give this a thought?
    The Tree of Harmony was supposed to be keeping back the Everfree Forest in the first place. Zecora's Plot Convenience Potion showed Celestia saying that "Even without the Elements, the tree will have enough power" to keep doing so.
    So from the sound of it, the tree has been holding back the forest while running at partial strength for over one-thousand years. And then at the start of this season *Twilight and the others put the Elements back*.
    My head canon? Recharged Tree with Elements equals Everfree Forest falling under a lot more control than before. Which is why it's been so much less dangerous in Season 4.

    Funny thing about the Aizen Syndrome.
    Think about how you play videogames, especially RPGs. When the enemies have your level, you carefully plan your party, carefully pick your spells and budget your resources. But when you are stronger, you just mash the attack button.
    Discord manipulates for the sake of manipulating, but for Tirek it is just a tool to achieve his goals.

    Surprised I didn't say this when I first watched this review, but there could be another intention behind the DBZ fight.
    Notice how Celestia makes sure never to have to actually get violent? Now look at the end result of Twilight going all out with the power of all four Alicorns. Total destruction of the area the fight took place in.
    Perhaps a main reason Celestia doesn't get involved is because she is fully aware that if she lost control of her emotions during a fight, she could very well kill everyone and everything around her.
    Just a thought.

      It's hard to say because we don't know how magic effects other creatures. Timberwolves are definitely magical. Maybe Tirek would have gone after them next. The thing about greed is that it's never satisfied. Tirek would always hunger for more.

      I rather liked that they brought back a G1 villain but he kinda scared my little one at first. I never really noticed how violent kids cartoons were back in the day. Sometimes i wonder if they are still even trying to write for little kids. As a brony myself I can see both sides to wanting more for the show and yet keep it simple and kid friendly. I think they are finding a nice balance but it seems to be a really fine line.

    Welp... Not the first time Q has lost his powers. Some of you may try and correct me and say it's Discord but let's face the facts. Discord has very similar powers, an identical personality and tendency to teach the main characters a lesson through some rather roundabout and unusual means, and the same actor, John DeLancie. It's also known that Lauren Faust based Discord on Q from Star Trek: The Next Generation and wrote him with John DeLancie in mind to play the character.

    I still find it stupid that people complain that Twilight was able to use the alicorn magic so well in the fight. She wasn't trying to control it she was trying to hide it people and when Tirek knew she had it there was no point in hiding any longer so she let it all out. Sure she didn't have much control over her teleporting and flying and she also had trouble lifting the sun but those are easily explainable. Say you just suddenly got super strength and were suddenly crushing stuff and punching holes in the walls, you have control of your strength, you just can't hold it back. Its like Dash from the Incredibles holding back his speed at the end to not blow his cover. He could control his speed he just had a hard time slowing it down. As for not being able to list the sun well that isn't her talent and even with god mode she has never done it. Of course she is gonna have trouble with it.

      Personally I like to connect the problem with Twilight using the magic back to Season 1. Specifically Boast Busters. When Twilight is doing a spell on Spike she requires IMMENSE CONCENTRATION. But since we know ponies can only have X amount of magic equivalent to Y amount of concentration. It was only after Tirek blew up her house was she able to devote her full attention TO him. In other words she was CONCENTRATED on him thus she was better able to use the magic.

    9:29-10:27 Most seem to dislike Celestia, Luna, and Cadence giving their alicron magic to Twilight. If you ask me, that was a smart play.
    Reason(s): If the pricnesses (minus Twilight) fight Tirek when he arrives in the Canterlot castle, there's a chance he steals their magic too. And if Twilight's friends still get trapped in a cage and have their magic (and eventually Discord's) stolen, then Twilight would stand no chance of even being on par with Lord Tirek. Not only that, but Tirek only considers a trade (which ends up being Twilight element challenge) because Twilight with the magic of 4 alicorns is just as powerful as Tirek with the rest of the magic in Equestria

Twilight travels to farts to try to help, where she becomes separated from her friends and all seems lost. The villain's arrogance creates an opening, and her friends reunite to defeat their enemy with the power of farts. That conveniently solves everything. Twilight learns a lesson that answers her personal dilemma, as she's rewarded with the new farts.

    4:31 i didn't see it so much as placing focus on titles as it did state how while each of the other princesses have a main and important role, twilight does nothing, this shows her desire to be doing something worthy of being a princess. yes this connects to her title of princess, but for anyone in a role of any kind, it is a lesson to step up and do something worth while with the role you've been given instead of just sitting back, doing nothing, and just accepting the benefits of said role.

    My interpretation: When Celestia had all of the alicorns give their power to Twilight, she was betting that one 12 was better than four 3s. She was desperate, yes, but she also wanted to avoid Tirek doing a divide-and-conquer on the four alicorns, taking each one's power one at a time, becoming even more difficult to stop with each consumption. With Discord there, it was perfectly plausible that Tirek could win if he could eat the meal in four bite-sized chunks rather than one giant bite. Either that or she thought Twilight would be more adept at using her magic to fight than the others, which is a reasonable assumption given that Twilight's talent is magic.
    I... don't really get why she couldn't tell her friends or why Celestia wouldn't take a hammer or something to the stainglass windows of Twilight, but whatever.

  • @ChariMahariel

    • @taddad2641
      @taddad2641 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      and the plan might have been intentionally flawed by design. considering the desperation and the nature of tirek's vampiric abilities, fighting him was too damn dangerous. he was strong enough to confidently attempt to steal celestia's magic when he charged in. more than likely the fight would have been a defeat if he simply got his hands on just one of them to tip the scale. and twilight and cadance would be far more vulnerable targets compared to celestia and luna.
      a desperate plan has a thousand flaws and even more risks. the stain glass and discord were overlooked because celestia had focused on tirek's threat. heck we have seen before that when her focus is too divided she overlooks things. the canterlot wedding swituation was her dealing with her neice's wedding and focusing on a threat against canterlot as well.

    Oh so that's why everyone was asking me in the comments of my review why I didn't mention Dragon Ball Z. Everyone else had done it!
    Yes because that's really what makes for a original review, copying everyone else!
    I don't get why people harp on about the new castle as just a new toy to sell, isn't that exactly what the treehouse was?
    One other minor thing, Twilight looks in her books for something about the box because that's what Twilight does. When she needs to know something, she looks in her books. I don't think it's inconceivable that there might have been something like the box before.
    I was hoping you might talk about her new title "princess of friendship". Also odd that you don't seem too bothered by how the new castle looks, but more by how it came to be. Which I don't think really matter in the long term, it's what they plan to do with it that matters.

    • @MLPSilverQuill
      @MLPSilverQuill  10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Indeed, every local from Sugarcube Corner to Carousel Boutique is a playset waiting to happen. I think the castle draws more attention because they made a greater spectacle of its appearance.
      Don't really go for the castle's crystal look (rustic aesthetic and all that), but I get that crystals are the in thing with MLP right now. Thing is, I really do believe you can sell the toy better if there's more weight to it. A gift from a nation has more meaning than a gift from a detached magical source.
      As for "Princess of Friendship", that mostly falls under the episode's reliance on titles. Until we get to see how Twilight acts, it's really nothing more than a slogan. Gotta see what happens in season 5, as you say.

    • @WyvernYT
      @WyvernYT 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      MLP-Silver-Quill I have to agree with you on the crystal castle; it looks pointy and uncomfortable. Twilight's old home actually suited her well. Does this princess live in a castle? No, she's got a loft in the local library; it's kind of frumpy, filled with books, and has a bunch of random trinkets all over the place. This isn't the home of a politician, it's the home of a smart mare who's done well being the studious nerd she is.
      I'd have been content if Twilight moved into the old castle after the library got blown up. That would make sense, it had been foreshadowed since the beginning of the season, Twilight would like being at the next-largest library in the area, and it's probably a good idea to have someone near the Tree of Harmony anyway. I'm not a fan of the Tower of Uncomfortable Angular Chairs.

I really miss when the finale didn't have to be so flamboyant since the season one finale just had a simple event featuring the mane six. But I also thought the season 3 finale was good but the staff didn't follow up on it.
      Guess what I'm trying to say is that the designs are good as long as they have a purpose.

    I just had one problem with this video. At 17:13 with the round table you can see the smaller chair by Twilight's. Silver Quill has been going on about Spike and all the stuff he has been through in season 4 and that they could do more with his character. Well he did not say anything about it, nor did he say that Spike might get a bigger roll in season 5. All in all great video as always and lets hope Spike really get to shine as Twilight's number 1 assistant in season 5. (If its not obvious I have bad grammar skills)
