>>34408352Season 6 is where the show started a bit wobbly, on the largest level. Now that Starlight Glimmer is a "pupil" of Twilight Sparkle, friendship lessons lose their personal touch. It's nowhere as artificial as with the School of Friendship, but the begin is there. I wouldn't have mind if Starlight decided to return to her town after the finale, coming back from time to time but not occupying permanent space in the main cast. S6 has also some of the worst episodes back to back: The Cart Before The Ponies and 28 Pranks Later.
Now on to the good stuff. To Where And Back Again is a very good finale, with an unlikely crew. I'm not even mad about the Changeling metamorphosis. I like the idea of a elven gay bug deer race being corrupted—although their design definitely could have been better. Gauntlet Of Fire, The Saddle Row Review and Top Bolt are very good, and Starlight and Trixie have great chemistry. Now that Glimmer is on the main cast, it's good that she's getting a unique circle of friends. I am happy.
Best episodes: The Saddle Row Review (10/10), Gauntlet Of Fire, Top Bolt, To Where And Back Again
