Talk:My Little Pony Best Gift Ever/@comment-10390252-20181027180926

I actually think that this is the best Hearth's Warming episode that the team have ever done. There was plenty for long-term fans and all the characters were written perfectly in-character.

Things to love:


 * Derpy living up to the fan concept of being an absent-minded mailpony who always sends things to the wrong address;
 * DHX poking fun at Hasbro's toys division's cynicism; Making Flim and Flam essentially be the 'buy our toys' division was gutsy but funny!
 * The Pie Sisters interacting so nicely; I really wanted to give poor, heartbroken Marble a hug!
 * FlutterCord and Rarijack Shipping;
 * Rarity as the Bearer of the Element of Generosity very well done;
 * Rarity reminding us that she loves Spike as a little brother that makes his crush all the more poignantly sweet.

They even made the old hacksaws of Twilight having an OCD breakdown and Discord being a 4th Wall-breaking pop culture troll work for them.

Overall? Probably one of the best episodes of this season.
