Talk:Luna Eclipsed/@comment-1961216-20120213144358

i'd like to apologize for the last time i commented on this episode, if any of you remember i was a bit violent.

however i still hate it and it is by far my least favorite episode in the show, and the only one i actually despise - i've "disliked" episodes before but never more than mildly. this episode was terrible the moment luna opened her mouth and stayed terrible from then on.

i'm not sure what happened. if st. germain had just used either of the voices she'd used back in friendship is magic pt. 2 luna would've sounded fine, but for some reason her voice was PHYSICALLY SICKENING to listen to, even when she didn't have the loudspeaker distortion on. She sounded like she had never spoken English in her life and was learning from the perspective of a caveman who only knew grunts and growls.

all of her lines are great in writing but the voice kills them completely, and they even cut a rarity scene that could potentially have saved the episode from being absolute crap.

luna's design isn't terribly interesting or inspired either, but this isn't much of a problem until the episode attempts a frontal shot of her, because the characters are all designed from the side (even ones not intended to get any toys) and they look awful from any other angle.

what's sad is that this episode killed my interest in the show entirely by reminding me of all the things in it, big and small, that disappoint me. i haven't even watched any of the newer episodes since Hearth's Warming Eve (an episode that also irritated me with the voicing thanks to Spike.)
