![]() Oh wait! She learned that cloning technique, so maybe she’ll use that to burn through all five of them and get Twilight off her back for a while! Wait, that’s NOT what happens? THEN WHY DID THEY BOTHER SHOWING US THAT BAD ASS NEW SPELL!? Instead, she just calls them all to the castle and assigns them each to a room so that she can duck in and between them. Okay, I get that she doesn’t want to be doing these friendship lessons which is conflicting with her desire to impress Twilight, but I’d figure that would be an excuse for her to coast or find a creative solution instead of doing five assignments at once. I’m certain that things won’t turn out EXACTLY like that episode did! At least this time, Starlight has the semblance of a plan namely try to hang out with the rest of the Mane6 at once… for some reason. I’m pretty sure Twilight should have learned by now the detrimental effect that a deadline can have when trying to find friendship problems to fix, but whatever. So what does Twilight have planned? Well, being the hands off teacher that she is, she gives her one day to solve a friendship problem while she and spike are at the Celestia’s school giving another lecture (if she spends any more time up there, she should be up for tenure) and leaves it at that. ![]() ![]() “DOUBLE FRIENDSHIP!? IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL!!” Starlight clearly has been keeping up with her magic studies, going so far as to develop the Shadow Clone Jutsu, but she must face her greatest challenge yet! FRIENDSHIP!! Wait, what? Didn’t we already get this resolved? Well I guess she IS due for a bit of practice considering we haven’t really seen her do anything since No Second Prances (even Twilight points this out), so while this unfortunately isn’t going to be another Trixie episode, maybe they can find something for her to do to do that takes advantage of her unique position in the group. Which one of us wanted to have a wizard duel in the middle of study hall? Don’t you have a battle arena in here?” “I’m pretty sure that’s in the basement next to the reanimation lab.” “What was that?” “I MEAN IT’S RIGHT NEXT TO THE BAKERY!” “What the hell, Starlight!?” “Oh I’m sorry. It’s not clear if Twilight is holding back, but Starlight has no problem keeping up with her moves which is unfortunate for the library once things start to escalate. The episode begins with Twilight and Starlight in the Friendship Doom Fortress, seemingly having pulled an all-nighter considering how tired they look and getting ready to test their spell casting prowess against each other in what I can only assume is what Unicorns refer to as a horn measuring contest. Can they recreate that magic here, or will this latest effort prove to be a non-starter for Starlight who will be relegated to the background like so many other ponies in this show? Let’s find out!! It’s probably a bit too late at this point to turn that into a reality, but it is always nice seeing her do something, especially with No Second Prances being such a high point for the season. We’re back with another episode of the Unbearable Starlight-ness of Being! It seems like the show kind of forgot about her for a while there despite her becoming Twilight’s student seemed to be the overarching theme of the season.
