Talk:To Where and Back Again - Part 2/@comment-25270260-20161211002556/@comment-24908786-20161212020036

I thought it was anti-climatic because of how there was not much footage of what happened in those few seconds that the throne blew up and freed everyone, kind of like with when Celestia was freed of her cocoon back in A Canterlot Wedding as it all happened off-screen.

I know there's only so much that can be done in 44 minutes, but they could have removed some of the banter between Discord and Trixie to allow room to show everyone's cocoons falling and breaking open once the throne and ceiling went.

Plus, this is the second finale to not call on the Elements of Harmony/Rainbow Power to save the day, but it is the second time the Power of Love was the savior of Equestria.
