Elements of Disharmony. Treachery, Lying, Greedy, Cruelty, Despair. What’s the opposite of magic? Science?

tree: "i'd like to be a fluttershy"

Evil Twilight would be such a great villain! She’s definitely my favorite of the mean six

Everyone has their dark sides~ That filly evaded my accusation this time, but she'll slip eventually. I know it!

Chrysalis has basically become Sunset Shimmer before reformation. She's not a mastermind anymore, she's not a supervillain, she's just mad. She's angry and just wants to win. She'll be the one to change herself. The mane 7 (because starlight is part of the team) will probably be saved by Chryssi. At least I hope so. If done right, it'll be heartwarming and may even make us shed liquid pride ☺

This was a fun ep, and love Chryssi going so nuts with being alone she has to monologue to herself. Also her prancing and the eye twitching, she was glorious!

Anyone gonna acknowledge how utterly insane Chrysalis has gone?

I am so in love with the fact that the opposite of awkward friendly Twilight would be a great villain. A genius who is confident in her power but not too arrogant to fail by overlooking important details? Heck yes!

Cozy Glow; The Mastermind behind it all.

This is an important episode. Chrysalis is now desperate. Desperate and revenge hungry is not a good combination. This is where she now does something at the end of the season that really fucks everything up.

Anti-Twilight:The Element of Intelligence Twilight:The Element of... Stupid? XD I mean that anti one can't be anti-magic because at the end she had a battle with Cristalis and she *won*

It just seemed so incomplete, i agree with the cliffhanger, i mean, I would have been really satisfied, if they had just seen chysalis as she fled

Kindness:Meaness Laughter:Boredom Honesty:Untrustworthy Loyalty:Betrayal Generosity:Greed Magic/Friendship:Unfriendliness

Foolish poniesis priesiouse is MINE...every time mean Rarity speaks I see her as Gollum from Lord of the Ring xD

If anyone is wondering why the the tree did that the mean 6 is because tree can't be fooled it knows it's not them

After the betrayal of the mean six and their short lived time, Chrysalis be like: “Curses, foiled again!”

15:57 it's the movie all over again

Blank Slate, what if there was even a evil doppelganger of Spike?

just, retrieve THE ELEPHANTS

And now we wait for episode 14-26 FeelsBadMan

"I think we can handle anything the world can throw at us" Yep, definitely foreshadowing if I've ever seen it.

22:46 *mean 6 turns into wood* Me: hu.. looks like it’s morning ...no wait, they are girls

I was waiting for the queen of the changelings to come back!

Honestly I wish that either the mane 6 met and realised the mean 6 existed. Oh well hopefully something happens with the tree getting mixed up with the opposite element bearers like the elements are corrupted or something

Anti-Rarity takes the #1 spot for most batshit crazy faces and mentally unstable mutterings. Chrysalis takes #2 for most adorable angry faces and growls. You gotta love those chops; teeth for days and sparkly sharp.

Mr. Blank Slate, do you have an opinion on Dr. Wolf's theory that the Mean 6 might return and take control of corrupted Elements of Harmony, which will lead Chrysalis to decide if she would rather save Equestria than let Mean Twilight destroy it?

Cysalis has finally lost it.......and now she has annoying kids made of wood

Pretty sure the Mean 6 were 'discorded' because Chryssi used trees from the Everfree, which is super saturated with Discord's magic (see plunder seeds).

I expect great reaction, as always ^^

I really hope for the season finale we get something epic like a Tirek and Chrysalis team-up that would be insane!!! Would love to see that

I did not expect that... The mean 6 could definitely come back in the future though

Thank Celestia I wasn't the only one that got the 127 hours reference.

Oh no queen chrysalis is at it again quic get fluffolpuff gun we need the Buffy pink pony

If Fluffle Puff was a canon character in this, she would meet Chrysalis and play with her

5:39 the jist of this expository scene: Twi: “I made a schedule for the thing we’re doing.” Dash: “Schedules? I don’t like schedules.” Flutternutterbuttershutter: “I don’t like loud noi-“ Ponkerpoe: “I DO!” Rarity: “I like stuff, but I didn’t bring it. Applejack: “I don’t like stuff, but I did.” Twi: “You do one, Starlight!” Starlight: “Guys, can’t we just assume they’ve all watched the show?” Twi: “Why do you have to be such a contrarian pain in the cunt, Starlight?” Starlight: “Ha! I made you do it before me.” Twi: “Nice job dude, well played.” Starlight: “I’m next level, bruh!”

If you thought the defeat scene was bad, it’s actually the *cencored* version. In the original they really look like they’re melting.

Blank: “A villain that’s both powerful *and* smart.” We’ve never had a villain that wasn’t powerful but was smart. Cozy is an exception, but you could argue deception to be power, not intelligence.

15:49 strangely fluttershy reminds me of me when people are mean to me and some of my bestest friends try to comfort me but people treat me differently cause I’m different mentally but physical I’m normal but mental I’m different (I wish people could stop treating us ASD’s like they want us to be) it’s quite difficult in life when you have ASD that comes with aspergest and people treat you like a outsider so I spend most of my time alone but when my friends are near they tend to talk to me and I like talking to people about me and what I’ve been up to but I just hope I can survive in the outside world in a few years time but quick answer (fluttershys my favourite)

I just love how everyone is so caught up in laughing at the way they portrayed Chryssie, or else complaining that the episode didn't end on a cliffhanger that they've missed the obvious. SOMETHING happened to the elements, and, frankly, actual living beings or not, draining away somecreature's lifeforce like that hardly seems to be the sort of thing the Elements of Harmony would be known for doing, anyway. And, personally, I viewed Twilight's ending comment that ". . . if we can survive a day like this, I think we can survive anything", as being more than a tad bit foreboding. I think the last half of the season is going to reach out and slap all of us in a way that this first half really didn't. I think they were really just taking their time and setting us up for whatever is going to happen next.

Copy Rarity and Copy Fluttershy were definitely the funniest of the mean six. It's just funny seeing Rarity be all greedy and Fluttershy all mean. Also the part with Copy Rainbow Dash just falling asleep under the tree while Copy Twilight and Chrysalis are fighting was just hilarious to me!

I wonder....Maybe at the end the tree was rejecting the mean six after they showed the exact opposite of the elements?

Oh god she's cracked...she's gone nuts...and if she's corrupted the actual tree of harmony Equestria's had it

did anyone else hoped that they actually meet each other at the end? XD i also expected a cliffhanger, the copies were great XD

21:05 “everypony likes me again” hold on i gotta go cry

OMG I SAW THIS A BRONY CON AND IVE BEEN WAITING EVER SINCE!!!

been waiting ur reaction for this for quite a while

What’s strange is that The Mane Six never find out about The Mean Six. The conflict in the episode is solved without them, usually it doesn’t get solved until they make it happen.

Oh no it's elements of insanity you know rarifrut

Remember those days? When chrysalis had a corrupted voice

I wish they didn’t censor the melting scene.

YAY I WAS WAITING SO PATIENTLY FOR YOUR NEXT VIDEO . I LOVE YOU BLANK CHECK!

I watched every episode from season 7 to 8 from you!❤ 😁

Yeah, I think Chrysi has gone off her rocker by this point X3

Did anyone see the evil rainbow dash cute marks is upside down. And her tail is off color.

Twilight(evil): You runied everything Soooo twilight knew and had a plan on how to get the elements but the others just got to the tree first and twilight got distracted by crysalis

Yes! More Chrissy for the win! I have a feeling this isn’t the last we’ve seen of her, seeing that she flew away without having taken her revenge. I hope we see more of her, because I love me some Chrysalis!

I’ll admit, when I first saw episode 12, I was sure she was just there to help the CMC, and also teach them a lesson, as AppleGeek mentioned in his review, but around the time “What Lies Beneath,” was released, I kind of started to see that Cozy Glow was actually being very deceptive as a villain.

End my suffering. Send memes. I’ve heard it always works when you just can’t even with life... But hell is soon over (school), so I’m happy...

I like how this all turned out. The tree killing the clones due to them being unworthy of the elements was a great way to end this. This perfectly showed how far Chrysalis has fallen and that she is still blinded by her own desires for revenge, despite it perpetuating her own ruined life. In desperation she devised a plan without all of the necessary knowledge and it backfired. Think about it if the tree hadn't stopped them, Queen Chrysalis would have been finished off by the product of her own hatred and only avoided this by dumb luck. Due to how Chrysalis managed to sabotage herself because of her own negative feelings, I honestly wouldn't mind her being redeemed later while also not needing a specific outcome to be happy. As long as its done well, I'm fine with whatever direction they take.

Damn...that ending got fucking DARK for a kids show! That tree down right MURDERED THEM!!! @_@

I love how all of your predictions for this episode were way better than what actually happened.

Fudge. I actually have already watched this episode cause I was trying to watch the first episode of season eight and I watched this thinking it was the first episode. So, I just spoiled it all for myself. Crap. Oh well, good episode though and I love your reactions.

Awesome episode Mlp is the best

I just now, 2 minutes into your video (after having seen the full episode previously) noticed that the photographer's cutie mark is a ladybug XD I absolutely adore the attention to these details that they put in there...

One thing for sure is that the finale is gonna be interesting. We have these two villain and a potential one working together to destruct the school.

Loved it like always

This is episode is one big showcase for the voice cast to absolutely FLEX their talent. 🤣

I waited to watch this with you~

Is it just me or did it look like the evil mane six were being absorbed into the tree of harmony?

Awesome video too !

I thought of a clever alternate title for this episode: “Into the Moods.”

Mean rarity is me my entire life

It is cool to know that the tree of harmony is sentient enough to see through the clones. Which means something in the tree is alive enough to keep the peace and be the real bodyguard of the elements.

While part of me does like that the Elements of Harmony were able to defend themselves from the evil doppelgangers, a greater part of me wonders why the same thing didn't happen to Sunset Shimmer? Is it the proximity of the other bearers? is it their proximity to each other? Was it Discord having a laugh? Was it a spell that Starswirl placed on it so as to protect the product of the seed he and the other Legends planted? Is it like a Sword in the Stone "only the worthy may retrieve them from the tree" sort of thing? I love the little bits of world building that is done in MLP when questions arise. But i like things to be consistent at this doesn't seem to fit that bill very well yet.

13:08 "I hope you all freaze in the winter" Blank check: *laughs* Me: SAVGE

In the leaked version of the episode the melting scene was a little bit more “graphic”

03:55 that's probably the worst exposition monologue we have seen in the whole show, I mean just listen to it, every time I hear it I laugh because it's so bad XD

nice sea's waves on background Blank Check) + cool video

The melting scene was orignally much more graphic in the leaked version.

I wouldn’t really call me greedy, actually now when I think about, no one else would call me that ether But, I can really relate to mean Rarity’s insanity

18:27 Cue the music:”I’m not here for your entertainment, you don’t really wanna mess with me tonight!” Also, I didn’t catch that reference to that hiking accident, nice catch!

I love your vids!!

Who knows, maybe this was just the beginning of something bigger......*I hope*

10:55 Pinkie being stupid, come on writers you can do better than that

Pinkie was using her tail to sweep! So cute!

This episode be my new second favorite episode of S8(that didn’t last long for “Molt Down”). I like how Chrysalis showed up in the middle of the season instead of a two-parter finale. It’s a pretty cool twist to get the mane six opposites again but, in a different manner of bringing them back(Chrysalis performing alchemy to resurrect them). This episode was very funny, definitely one of the best of the season in my opinion!

this was a real good ep. I liked it.

Better plan instead of Chryssi’s: Break starlight’s spine, and force her to watch as they torture and murder her friends in the most painful ways imaginable, even some you can’t. But no, no, that’s not how evil plots work, or the megalomaniacal villains they’re attached to. There’s got to be machinations at work, and then a big reveal, where the villain’s like “Remember me?” and then they’re like “NOOOOO!” and then you get all the hugs-er I mean servants. All the servants.

And when Twilight said “you could of just of pulled their manes!” I was like but she did!

I’ve avoided everything about this episode until now BUT I STILL KNOW CHRYSALISS IS IN IT THANKS KZfaq THUMBNAILSSSS 1:02 I don’t trust the tiny lady horse either 2:41 yo why she taking hair samples she a voodoo queen Few seconds later OH SHIT SHES BACK THE BUG QUEEN IS BACCCCCC 4:24 I love this fangirl talk Like she’s talking to her pick aa 22:51 HOLY SHIT WHAT THE HELL

2:29 pinkie's mane (you have to pause the video) And also, you can tell the difference between mane 6 and mean 6, and the colors difference, and they are opposite

2:51 Admit it Blank Check....we all would like that photo of Rainbow Dash.

i got major rarijack energy from this episode lol. the way they were both worried about each other was sweet. especially when applejack was rude to starlight and then rarity was like, “we’re gonna have a serious talk later.” she wasn’t yelling at her but she was clearly angry. i wish they were canon jdjdjsikd

6:32 I said "Kites!" the same time he did. 😂

*Sees the video* my prayers have been answered

22:46 (Rainbow Dash comes in, picks up wood, returns to campsite) "Uhhh...guys? Is it just me, or does it sound like the campfire is screaming?"

Its a good episode. I liked the return of the opposite versions of the Mane 6, but the ending was a bit anticlimactic. I mean, Chrissie was pretty much right next to the Mane 6 and Starlight right at the end. I'm a bit surprised nothing happened. All in all, pretty good

I really love what they did with chrysalis' evil plan in this episode! I really hope they do multiple episodes where she comes back with more evil plans and have all of them fail in equally silly ways! That would be an awesome recurring thing they could do.

It was a cliffhanger!!! Crystatias left the tree into the moon at the end probably with the elements

This episode was woefully underwhelming. For such an epic buildup, it was disappointingly hollow. There were some good laughs and info dropped in relation to my theory work but really not what I expected. As per the Elements possibly corrupting, I think not. I think they just sensed darkness and purged it.
