13:32 [Celestia starts laughing] Harley Quinn: I’ve never seen you laugh before. I don’t think I like it. [Celestia continues laughing] Harley Quinn: Cut it out! You’re giving me the creeps!
I'm curious about his thoughts on that episode too. Personally, I loved it. It was a Starlight episode for one thing, and those are rarely bad, and I liked that it was dedicated to the Royal Sisters and their own personal relationships with each other.
See I noticed the beard, but chose not to bring attention to it because its really inconsequential to the video overall and it doesn't really take away from my enjoyment of the video
I loved the episode because we finally got depth into Celestias character and how she found Twilights friends in order for her to start her journey ^^ Awesome work guys ^^
I was laughing my ass off at Josh's remark about how all of us hate his beard and that's everything that we talked about funny thing really I like his beard
13:14 OBJECTION!!! You, Mr Antony, have a map of middle earth and a star wars poster on your wall! You could be accused of fishing into other fandoms of your own sir! So to you sir I say "One fandom at a time!"
BEST intro skip idea ever!! Now all we have to do is wait for his review on the episode "A Royal Problem". Maybe "The Perfect Pear" also, but I don't know?
"fishing around some other fandoms for some cheap brownie points, are we?" says the man who went out of his way not 5 minutes ago to reference dragon ball z abridged.
17:02 Was that a doctor who reference with the "ALL SHALL BE HARMONIOUS, ALL SHALL SURRENDER TO THE MATTER OF FRIENDSHIP"? Also, the batman beyond return of the joker reference and the emperor's new groove clip were hilarious.
Do to the light reflecting off the poster, it looks like Luke is kicking his leg up like a chorus girl. 11:49 That, or his Shwarts is glowing, and growing. "May the Shwarts be with you!" ~Yogert
Antony's face on the fantasize comment. Pretty sure that was everyone's reaction XD Watching the rest, jesus christ, this was the best vid' I've seen in a LONG time
To be fair...Thorax is as good or bad a choice as any of the Changelings since the only leader they've ever known is gone. Although, sometimes those who are used to doing things a certain way *could* benefit from someone who's inexperienced, but has new ideas. It almost worked in Transformers Armada.
I feel like that was a bit of an unfair complaint to make with Thorax, he became a king literally an episode ago. We're not given an exact time frame between the finale and this premire but can't have been too long a wait to do this celebration. So yeah I can see Thorax still needing to adjust to things and get comfy with his new position.
I mean Thorax was the only good changeling soooo... Also outing any of the other changelings in charage wouldn't be fair considering no other changeling had any experience in friendship also. I don't think any other changeling would have ever given up their love for fear of dying of starvation. ~ Mintstar
Hm. Now I'm curious as to what would count as a good leader in Josh's book, just because I want to know if qualities I thought might make for a good leader are correct or not. With Thorax, I can understand the annoyance, but I agree with the others who commented here - I might just be a bit more forgiving about it cause he's new and no other changeling has been shown to have the chops to replace Chrysalis or even challenge her in the first place besides Thorax. Also, when I was watching the Power Rangers movie (which I legit enjoyed when watching it, but can understand others not liking it), I didn't get the sense that Jason was a bad leader (inexperienced, sure, cause he's a teenager and going after Rita without being able to morph was clearly a bad idea - something that they all acknowledged in character during the movie no less -, but not necessarily bad - he was the one making the calls as the team was forming and got the others to listen to him as I recall, standing up for the others - like when he was defending Billy or talking to Kimberly about her past - and he also was the one to mobilize the teenagers against Rita when they got kicked out by Zordon and Rita was killing people). In addition, I didn't get the impression that anyone else in the team could work as a leader besides him - Trini and Kimberly are too slow to trust the others (specifically thinking about the campfire scene where Kimberly refused to explain what was up with her and Trini's general questioning of whether or not they were friends) Billy's too panicy (thinking about the times he was talking nonstop out of nervousness when he was in a stressful situation), and Zack is too reckless (his joyride of the zords). And I doubt that if they could just go find better candidates for the ranger coins on such short notice - or that the ranger coins would have chosen the teens in the first place if they weren't the best option available at the time. (Of course, maybe my sense of good leadership is just off or something and my assessments here are bad ones, which is why I would like to have some sort of comparison/definition of what makes a good leader).
Honestly I thought Josh was harsh with Thoarx but at the same time I can understand where he is coming from as well. I mean Thoarx just became king in a episode and he doesn't have any training at all.
You two are both adorable! And had me laughing through the whole video. Hope to see more from you both, you'll definitely need to do another co-lab together when Antony gets caught up ( like seriously dude where have you been??).
I agree with the POWER RANGER reference. In Gen. 1 although Jason was the official leader KIMBERLY came up with more strategy in the first season then "the leader" did in the entire series.
I have always loved your reviews :) there are so informative and funny. I love all the jokes you put into them. I also love when you do collabs because it makes it all better and funnier. More jokes, more points of view. Keep doing what your doing :) your doing good ^_^
3:23 Finally, thank you! Someone says that the purple heart is awarded to those who are wounded in action, which was completely inaccurate in this scene for what the real life equivalent is.
"I'm touched by the amazing amount of trust you keep in your student who apparently saved your life, Purple Smart." To be fair, I wouldn't trust Starlight to run a bath without committing some unconscionable crime that spits in the eye of nature and decency.
12:33 Anddddd I start getting Fullmetal Alchemist flashbacks. I was about to say you missed the chance to put a Fullmetal Alcemist joke, and then you make that reference, and I was very happy
This was a great duo for analyzing. I love these episodes. Also, Antony almost having to duck to get out of the room and then popping back into the room? Hilarious!
It really gets under my skin how often they do expository dialogue in this show. As if they think kids are too stupid to remember what happened in previous episodes. At the very least they could start trying harder to make the exposition sound more natural.
Watching this made me smile, especially with how you skipped the intro. Also, thank you for not making the song deafeningly loud when you did that bit ;w;
Well it is a pretty nice beard Mr. Scorcher. fyi it was fun to see you Antony C review together. I tell you my favorite part but I enjoyed the hold thing and your beard is cool.
*Z-O-M-FREAKIN' G, JOSH!! YOU HAVE A BEARD!!!* In all seriousness, you and Antony did a fantastic collab. with some hilarious back and forth banter, and thoughtful discussion. I too am glad that this episode exists. not just because we finally get to see a new layer to Celestia's character we were overdue to see for 7 seasons but it sets the mood for the series to come, re-affirming Starlight as a recurring character. While i'm not saying they have to cram her in every single episode ever, in retrospect, i think Season 6 didn't have enough episodes for her to develop, something that Season 7 fortunately does have.
I knew you and Antony C doing a collab together would be really funny Josh! right up there at the top for me of one of your best collabs with the ones you did with Thespio, Voice, and DRWolf.
I don't see what's wrong with your beard, if you want to grow, it's your choice to do if you'd like. Nice video, not too keen on Anthony in my opinion, but even though I never saw season 6 prior to this, I was able to follow what happened just fine. If I had seen this myself, then I might've found to be decently good as well. Your editing and commentary are sharp as always (and was that an SAO abridged by the end? Awesome).
I'm never gonna get over the fact that Anthony made his entrance into this collab by just saying the word *"Beard."* If you can make me laugh in literally 2 seconds going into the video - and by just saying the word "beard" for that matter - you KNOW you're funny XD
5:07 your rant about leadership. I think that "poorly developed leaders" are probably in a better position to be leaders. You mentioned you're a Christian in previous videos? Think of Moses, he wasn't a very well developed leader either; yet he lead an entire people to freedom. I think for the most part, that's why the media chooses to portray that character arc in movies and TV shows such as this.
"There is no wrong way to fantasize."

FANFICTION WRITERS, TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!
WRITE! YA FANFICS
Celestia your owner Lauren ruined our fun with a episode title poor people who can't draw a pony... and the horse looks ugly. Me seeing my ugly horse
I can't art my story the pictures are ugly what to do
Don't encourage them !!! They will write so much shit the whole internet
will fall :DDDD
...And THAT was said on a children's show
13:32
[Celestia starts laughing]
Harley Quinn: I’ve never seen you laugh before. I don’t think I like it.
[Celestia continues laughing]
Harley Quinn: Cut it out! You’re giving me the creeps!
I swear AntonyC could play a doctor who.
Red Cross
One Fandom at a time, sir.
Ponies. PONIES!
He looks almost like a younger Peter Capaldi to me, it's the hair. XD
The Doctor, not Doctor Who, god damn it.
I'd pay to see that, to be honest... 😏😆
I so agree. I almost mistook him for Dr wolf for a moment.
The best part of this episode was Antony completely lost because of new characters and events. Made me laugh everytime
That intro skip was the funniest one yet.
Some
*BODY ONCE TOLD ME*
One of the funniest ways to skip your hated intros
Agreed!
That is a *much* better opening song
Zdude2017 its great because of his beard
11:05 Antony’s Troll Face will NEVER fail to get a laugh out of me! 🤣
Antony C + Josh Scorcher = best review
I don't have epilepsy but 7:15 -7:20 might need revision or avoid it completely if you read this. upvote so people see this plz
This isn't reddit it isn't "upvote" it is "like"
I am now waiting for the review of A Royal Problem
I'm curious about his thoughts on that episode too. Personally, I loved it. It was a Starlight episode for one thing, and those are rarely bad, and I liked that it was dedicated to the Royal Sisters and their own personal relationships with each other.
Samuel Johnson he tweeted and called it one of the best eps I believe
Michael McJunkin Not to mention the episode was very expensive to animate. The Twilight rotating animation alone cost the animators more than usual.
James W srsly
It was a starlight and a princess sisters episode which sums it all to: "Killin two birds with one stone".
"Is this show getting awesome again?" Can't believe I'm saying it, but yes, Antony. Yes it is.
For those who missed it
3:08 "I Wanted to Give him a moustache, but the blessed tracker wouldn't work"
I needed to slow it down to quarter speed and still missed it two times =_= Damn split second editing.
how cute, I missed it seventeen times and the ocd wouldn't let me leave it be.
Ghostlyruins I have yet to pause it and confirm what it says.
Thank you
99.9% of the comments: OH NO! HE HAS A BEARD!!! *purge mode activated*
Me and the .1%: Huh. he grew a beard. looks good.
Josh has more of a baby face appeal to me like Elijah Wood. If he has a rough prickly beard it ruins the whole image.
I mostly use his stuff as a podcast, like basically the rest of youtube.
Patrick Dees I am that .1% percent
See I noticed the beard, but chose not to bring attention to it because its really inconsequential to the video overall and it doesn't really take away from my enjoyment of the video
Patrick Dees I prefer him without the beard, however, if he wants to keep the facial hair then who am I to judge him for what he wants to do?
the beard is good. but more important the review was fantastic! great to see both josh and antony in excellent form. outro music was great btw
Erie Perry Josh has more of a baby face appeal to me like Elijah Wood. If he has a rough prickly beard it ruins the whole image.
i think it gives him a more mature look.
Erie Perry
Which of the songs was used for the outro? do you know?
Outro Gabriel's Assumption intro Kronos Unveiled. Scorcher has good taste in music
Twilight watching Starlight die twice was a little bit unsettling.
Josh and Antony should team up permanently. XD
YES! YEEEESSSSSS! He only finally went and did it. I've been waiting forever for Josh to colab with Antony on a review. Thank you Josh and Antony.
Probably the best intro skip ever.
Austin Smedley some
*_BODY ONCE TOLD ME THE W O R L D IS GONNA ROLL ME_*
CrasherX 2000 what are ya doing in me swamp!! Lol
I loved the episode because we finally got depth into Celestias character and how she found Twilights friends in order for her to start her journey ^^ Awesome work guys ^^
Great video Josh. I rate this review a BEARD/10!
Master Vidxad 58 pro Jared reference?
I reckon so.
So that's why i give that reference..... a toby out of 10.
Boooooooooooooooooooooo
HA! Thorax totally sounds like goku abridged
Someone should go tell MasakoX. I think he is a Brony as well.
Both Goku's sound the same to me.
It took this video and now I can't unhear it XD
19:17
The Recent Equestria Girls Episodes would like to have a word with you AntonyC.
BEARD!
MY EYYEEEEESSSSS! MY EEEEEYEEEEES!
B҉E҉A҉R҉D҉!
*heavy celebration from crowd*
Okay. That’s it. It’s coming off.
"Is this show awesome again?"
It stopped at one point?
I was laughing my ass off at Josh's remark about how all of us hate his beard and that's everything that we talked about funny thing really I like his beard
13:14 OBJECTION!!! You, Mr Antony, have a map of middle earth and a star wars poster on your wall! You could be accused of fishing into other fandoms of your own sir! So to you sir I say "One fandom at a time!"
"Goes to snarky spike!"
Me: HAVE A COOKIE! *throws a cookie* 🍪🍪🍪
BEST intro skip idea ever!! Now all we have to do is wait for his review on the episode "A Royal Problem". Maybe "The Perfect Pear" also, but I don't know?
If you gonna make a big deal out of a small thing-
Me: That's the internet, my fiery friend.
Sorry Josh I'm mentioning the beard, but I really like it you sort of look like Obi-wan Kenobi.
PurpleRose Deses That's where it looked familiar! Thank you.
No problem ^-^
i love the intro because of the "my eyes" part
0:15 BEARD! *B҉E҉A҉A҉A҉A҉R҉D҉!!*
this was well edited and it includes a lot of good references. bravo, Anthony and Josh
"fishing around some other fandoms for some cheap brownie points, are we?"

I love the beard! Please keep it! And please do more Antony C stuff! You two are great paired up.
13:30
Harley Quinn: I've never seen you laugh before. I don't think I like it.
The beard looks nice.
You're also great at reviewing!! Keep up the good work Josh!
Do to the light reflecting off the poster, it looks like Luke is kicking his leg up like a chorus girl. 11:49

I mean Thoarx just became king in a episode and he doesn't have any training at all.
Lol I love this, you and AntonyC are funny together like you and Thespio. Also your robotic voice sounded like a Dalek. Nice!
I was waiting for him to slip in an "Exterminate!" in there. Shame he didn't.
I thought you look great with a beard on dude
Christopher Ocampo I really dont like the beard, I miss his hairless face.
WeegeeSlayer well maybe he likes it that's all
he looks like a young obi wan kenobi from star wars
Christopher Ocampo Really? Josh has more of a baby face appeal to me like Elijah Wood. If he has a rough prickly beard it ruins the whole image.
Christopher Ocampo Same
You two are both adorable! And had me laughing through the whole video. Hope to see more from you both, you'll definitely need to do another co-lab together when Antony gets caught up ( like seriously dude where have you been??).
Celestia: There is no wrong way to fantasize.
YOU ARE GOING TO REGRET THOSE WORDS.
I agree with the POWER RANGER reference. In Gen. 1 although Jason was the official leader KIMBERLY came up with more strategy in the first season then "the leader" did in the entire series.
That opening scene was priceless! You guys are awesome!
I have always loved your reviews :) there are so informative and funny. I love all the jokes you put into them. I also love when you do collabs because it makes it all better and funnier. More jokes, more points of view. Keep doing what your doing :) your doing good ^_^

12:33 Anddddd I start getting Fullmetal Alchemist flashbacks.
I was about to say you missed the chance to put a Fullmetal Alcemist joke, and then you make that reference, and I was very happy
Took Josh 7 minutes to fanboy over Tia. Took longer than I expected.
Great collab guys, your personalitys play off each other really well, hope you collab again
I actually like that he has a beard, it looks good on him.
Loved the new way to deal with the theme song that and the puppy noise made me giggle.
I notice no one in the show points out that a lot of Celestia's plan involved throwing Twilight in front of every crisis & hoping for the best
This was a great duo for analyzing. I love these episodes. Also, Antony almost having to duck to get out of the room and then popping back into the room? Hilarious!
Apparently everyone forgot what a goatee is.
That is not a beard, that is a goatee.
Antony C. has become the Mad Max of the horse-analysis community: The wandering reluctant hero, more myth than man.
Ok, so we've had Josh colab with a few Americans, a couple of Canadians and now a Brit. Just one question: When is Josh going to colab with an Aussie?
ThugKing25 actually, Antony C is Australian
Casey .Tyler well that explains why the “totally dude” section was pretty accurate
At least Thorax has cause for being an underdeveloped leader, he was kind of just thrust into the position after Crysalis buggered off
It really gets under my skin how often they do expository dialogue in this show. As if they think kids are too stupid to remember what happened in previous episodes. At the very least they could start trying harder to make the exposition sound more natural.
Great review Josh. These are my favorite of your videos honestly. 10/10 would clop again.
And now we wait for Josh to tackle A Royal Problem.
Watching this made me smile, especially with how you skipped the intro.
Also, thank you for not making the song deafeningly loud when you did that bit ;w;
Can I just say how much I love Thorax's new design?
I'm gonna write a letter to the editor. About how much of a sick burn that was.
Last time I was this early, there was only one Sunset Shimmer.
Now to see how our dear Antony C handles All Bottled Up XD. This was great man, i love watching the collabs you do btw.
Can you review the Equestria Girls movies?
He already has.
(singsong) Not *all* of theeeeem!
He already has.......sort of.
Well it is a pretty nice beard Mr. Scorcher.
fyi it was fun to see you Antony C review together. I tell you my favorite part but I enjoyed the hold thing and your beard is cool.
Why is green arrow and some guy talking about cartoon ponies the show.
BEHOLD...the only reason I scroll down anymore.
"Naughty joker NAUGHTY!" 13:10
The British accent makes it 10 times better 😂😂😂
0:17 Is that clip from when the Chicago Cubs won the World Series?
TexasBrony93 Yep😁😁😁. And about time too.
Why does the music sound so familiar?
The collab nobody knew they wanted till they got it. Great job, guys!
Props for the SAOA reference
Antony has the best facial expressions. It's like watching a real-life cartoon character. :Dd Excellent review, you guys are hilarious!
God I've missed that outtro :) good to see you again mate
I think this was both one of the best Josh videos and one of the best Antony C videos. We need more of this ham to ham combat.
There reaction when Celestia's laughs was priceless
Thank you! Thank you for the fma reference! No one that I've watched had done that reference! Thank youuuuuuuuuuu!
Josh we already have enough Shrek memes.
Josh, as always, I love your funny, awesome intro skipping sequences.
I don't know why people are freaking out about your beard, Josh. It looks cool.
It's less of whether it looks good or bad, and more about OMG HE HAS A BEARD.
Fair enough.
I liked that the episode gave an explanation for one of the weirdest decisions Celestia made: Not sending Twilight to ponyville earlier
Did Josh make a Doctor who reference? NICE.
*Z-O-M-FREAKIN' G, JOSH!! YOU HAVE A BEARD!!!*
In all seriousness, you and Antony did a fantastic collab. with some hilarious back and forth banter, and thoughtful discussion. I too am glad that this episode exists. not just because we finally get to see a new layer to Celestia's character we were overdue to see for 7 seasons but it sets the mood for the series to come, re-affirming Starlight as a recurring character. While i'm not saying they have to cram her in every single episode ever, in retrospect, i think Season 6 didn't have enough episodes for her to develop, something that Season 7 fortunately does have.
Am I the only one that things that AntonyC sounds and looks like the 9th Doctor?
I knew you and Antony C doing a collab together would be really funny Josh! right up there at the top for me of one of your best collabs with the ones you did with Thespio, Voice, and DRWolf.
I don't see what's wrong with your beard, if you want to grow, it's your choice to do if you'd like.
Nice video, not too keen on Anthony in my opinion, but even though I never saw season 6 prior to this, I was able to follow what happened just fine. If I had seen this myself, then I might've found to be decently good as well.
Your editing and commentary are sharp as always (and was that an SAO abridged by the end? Awesome).
Celeste Irizarry Josh has more of a baby face appeal to me like Elijah Wood. If he has a rough prickly beard it ruins the whole image.
Him with a beard just makes his voice feel slightly...off. It's like his voice face doesn't match his face face anymore.
I'm never gonna get over the fact that Anthony made his entrance into this collab by just saying the word *"Beard."*
If you can make me laugh in literally 2 seconds going into the video - and by just saying the word "beard" for that matter - you KNOW you're funny XD
BEST REVIEW EVER!!!
So glad to see I am not the only person that thought of full metal alchemists from her and sunburst
12:51
Haha
Hahahaha
*Hahahahaha*
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHA*
i'm not okay.
Thorax = Thor + Ax
Anthony = Ant + Toe + Knee
LOL that's my favorite part xD I couldn't stop giggling for like 10 minutes!
wait did celestial laugh
Silver Clode Yes
YAY!!! TWO OF MY FAVORITE REVIEWER ARE DOING A COLLAB!
(*faints, distant siren wails*)
11:23 Best bit.
Josh + Beard =From me and .1% of his fans: You honestly look pretty good with a beardFrom the rest: oh noooo. Not change. *freak out plays*
5:07 your rant about leadership. I think that "poorly developed leaders" are probably in a better position to be leaders. You mentioned you're a Christian in previous videos? Think of Moses, he wasn't a very well developed leader either; yet he lead an entire people to freedom.

you two need to do more of these together! I loved it.
