Really good episode, might be my favorite of the season (or that might still be the premiere - but it's honestly the first episode that's even challenged the premiere for my favorite of the season thus far). Nice to see Mt. Aris and Seaquestria in the show's style (they did a good job of scaling it down so it still looks good in the simpler Flash animation, as opposed to the rich detail of Toon Boom Harmony). The animation was a little bit wonky at points, for some reason, but it's easily forgivable.

I liked how the music for Seaquestria kind of reminded me of the music of the movie - I thought that was a nice little touch, and the Harmonizing Heights was lovely as well. Other than that, the only thing that stood out was the song, and I really enjoyed it (even if, right now, it probably is my least favorite of the season).

I can see how people would see the conflict as a kid having to decide which parent he wants to live with when they're divorced, but personally, I saw it as more of a thing of a bi- or multi-cultural kid, trying to decide which culture they want to live in, become a part of, with the lesson of having to decide that for yourself, but don't feel obligated to just choose one and stick with it - feel free to be a part of more than one. Just do whatever works for you. (I think I mostly explained that well - but if I didn't, it's because it's 5 in the morning ).

Also, I had wanted the CMC to be called by the map practically ever since they got their cutie marks, so that was quite satisfying to see.
