Talk:Twilight's Kingdom - Part 2/@comment-26036369-20150210204030

Here's something I noticed about the episode:

You know how, by the time this episode was released, many analysts were being very negative and nit-picky over this's episode's "inconsistancies", well, I think I can explain one of them, so it can't really be an inconsistancy.

I noticed that when Twilight was practicing her newfound magic given to her by the alicorns, when Tirek pops up and threatens Twilight, she starts to get suddenly better at controlling it, and therefore, has no problem facing him. I think I can explain that.

Before Tirek showed up, Twilight clearly had problems controlling her magic, where she would just teleport randomly, accidentally blew up a door, and had trouble moving the sun and the moon, but as soon as Tirek appears, she suddenly has better control over her magic and when he destroys her treehouse, she has no problem whatsoever taking him on. I think this is because Twilight was at a life or death situation with Tirek, and naturally, when faced with that particular situation, she had a much better focus on her magic. This kind of thing has happened before when you think about it.

Twilight was under no danger before Tirek showed up, which means she had less focus and at the time, wasn't taking it too seriously. She had a perfectly controlled teleportation spell, but then it started to mess with her. That's because, at that moment, she lost focus and her magic got out of control. When she has more focus on her magic, she's able to control it better, especially when Tirek blew up her home, and became angry, and because of this, she had a much better focus on her magic, but also use violent outbursts of it as well. Plus, I think it's safe to say she was also really caught up in the moment, and had forgotten about it by the time it happened. I think that's totally believable and relatable with her.

Besides, even if her magic was inconsistent, it would only be nothing but a REALLY minor issue in the grand scheme of things in an otherwise amazing episode.
