Talk:The Mean 6/@comment-4531340-20180610104622

I've gotta say, that was a fun little episode. While the first act was kind of slow, it really picked up nicely in the second and third acts, when the Mean 6 and Mane 6 started interacting in various forms - those were a lot of fun, and it was also fun seeing how much trouble Queen Chrysalis had with controlling the Mean 6. My favorites of the Mean 6 were Rarity (simply because of how wonderfully hammy Tabitha's performance was) and Twilight (she had an impressive presence, and really did feel kind of menacing and dominant).

This was an episode all about the character interactions and dynamics, and thankfully, in that regard, it succeeded admirably. Plus the reasons Guildmaster Grovyle elaborated on below are also pretty cool.

If season 8 continues this pace in the second half, I have no doubt it will overtake season 5 as my favorite season.
