Talk:Crusaders of the Lost Mark/@comment-24266508-20151011163424

I don't care much for musical episodes (But I do like  Magical Mystery Cure very much though), I see them as a hindrance to character development. Even though the cutie mark crusaders had plenty of episodes to develop their characters its not their development that is hindered here but Diamond Tiara's. She was left with a generic parents with high expectations of their child scenario. Losing her only friend wasn't even emphasized and neither what her cutie mark suppose to mean. Was it suppose to tell you to spend your parent's money on others? Does it reflect of how nice of a person she really is? does it reflect her keen observation of other people's traits and helping them to utilize it. Again we are denied all that for the sake of making this a musical. Again musicals are fine for already well established characters with time to be developed but not so much for undeveloped characters like Diamond Tiara.

I have one more last bone to pick with the episode and that is the bad design of the long waited cutie marks. They look like stickers. Yes stickers they bought from a store and put them on their flanks. They are  small, indistinguishable and similar in design. If they were a bit bigger they would be fine at least.

But hey, at least there won't be any more CMC episodes going into loops about finding their cutie marks anymore.
