Okay, so I was right, there was more to Flash Sentry's appearance in this special, but was cut due to time constraints for the Discovery Family airing, as confirmed by the following tweets. My point from the commentary still remains though, in that his appearance was still basically just a cameo. I really wish they could figure out a way to give Flash a more meaningful role in this world. twitter.com/nickconfalone/status/966207325915795456 twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/966510337867444229 twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/966511014337368064 twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/966512981369483264 twitter.com/isitlunchyet_t/status/966513240908865537

Wallflower is mad that her Sun-pai won’t notice her. She should go make friends with Starlight. Starlight understands *exactly* how she feels.

When Twilight begged to stay and help Sunset by screaming "DON'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME!", I was thinking "that's exactly what I'd say!" Never get between a girl and her books. Rainbow Dash may be my favorite MLP character, but I relate to Twilight the most in this show.

I like how Princess Twilight was losing her mind when it came to the restricted section of the library.

"twighlight used wing slap" Applegeek used pokemon reference

Applegeek was so excited he held the check mark the wrong way! XD

Sunset and Celestia Reunion. The fandoms biggest wish fulfilled! Loved your reaction to that bit. Also, watching Twilight having a nerdgasm over the restricted section was hilarious XD

30:50 "That'll work." *flicks recording button in a way that doesn't tip off the audience* OMG that detail

"Maud, don't ever stop being you." -- Applegeek Magnifid=cent point. :)

Best Equestria Girl special ever! Best moment was Sunset making things right with Celestia and both of them hugging! I was so happy I had tears coming out my eyes!

Anyone notice the face Luna made when she and Celestia opened the restricted section and looked back at Twilight? Luna looked almost scared, like "Oh boy is she gonna go crazy now" and Celestia was all calm and amused. Great little detail.

Kind of sad we didn't have Starlight here as well. Wanted to see Starlight, Twilight, and Sunset all together. Maybe add Trixie to make it the full group.

Strictly speaking, the Memory Stone is now the oldest known instance of Equestrian magic to exist in the human universe, predating even the Sirens. This is one magical situation we absolutely can't blame on Midnight Sparkle's destruction of the horse statue.

41:26 I really like how even Wallflower was horrified of what she had just done.

I think Applegeek's reactions have become a full part of my MLP rituals. I look forward to them all the time. I don't pay much attention to fan-made stuff, with the exception of FluffyMixer, of course. But every episode/special of FiM and EQG I see comes with at least one thought for Applegeek. When I first watched this special and saw they were reuniting Sunset and Celestia, I immediately thought "Applegeek is going to lose his mind!"

Yay it is finally out! I was waiting for your reaction! BTW You are my favorite reactor keep it up dude!

I'm honestly surprised they didn't give Wallflower her own superpowered transformation. I mean, I welcome the change, but really, Hasbro? You're giving up the chance for a new TOY??

This special is probably better then the latest eqg movies

I like how part of the message pretty much equates to what my mom always told me. "It's not enough to 'not try to' when you make a mistake when it comes to caring for others and NOT hurting them you have to TRY NOT to." It was just a message that felt very close to home and made me happy. (Also you can actually see Sunset turn on the drone just after she reads the note from twilight and before she asks wallflower about her garden. During the "Invisible" song you can also see the blinking red light on the drone).

Good to have you back, man! This show is so good, and this has been one of the best EQG specials yet!

Aww. Thought you were gonna say a little more Twilight's ADORKABLENESS. I love her to death. FREAKEN LOVED HER HERE! Regardless, I'm so glad to see you back again, hoped you enjoyed your break cause SEASON 8 is a comin!! Keep up the good work my good man.

38:57 That was a very convincing System Error box! For a moment I thought that was coming from my computer and not the video.

Notice how Wallflower's colors make up the hues of classic camouflage. I assume its to further emphasize how she manages to just blend into the background. Also how her mark is a plant. They often symbolically refer to attention as light(spotlight, limelight, day in the sun). What happens to a plant that is deprived of light/sun; it withers and dies. Wallflower is slowly dying from her loneliness. Glad you're back posting videos. Was looking forward to your react action to this one since it aired.

00:10 Do not worry about your recent lack of videos. It is the S7/S8 hiatus; if ANYTHING had to happen to you, better now than in the middle of season 8.

35:20 They cut the song short so you buy the album when it comes out, of course!

I find it a little wierd that this is the one episode that a lot of reactors who posted a reaction to this episode on KZfaq have never been spoiled about, unlike pretty much every season premiere and finale as well as the movies for this franchise! Way to go MLP Fans!

2:50 Why is Angel so much nicer in this world than in the other one?

"Clever. Oh, Clover the- yeah, I got there" I couldn't help but reference Thorax there XD

42:40 I thought she said "Light 'er up, ladies!"

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SOOOOOOO LONG HELL YEAH

Pony Twilight might not have had TOO much screen time here, but man did she capitalize on it! I couldn't stop laughing when she was losing it! On a related note, since she doesn't usually like being called "Princess Twilight" when you don't really need to, i rarely call her that.

Can i just say something? You're such a great (and powerful xD) person, your reactions are really entertaining and, probably most important, it makes me really happy to see you happy, you always manage to bring a smile to my face whenever you get excited about something, it's honestly so adorable to me, please don't ever change 💙💙 You actually feel like a friend to me, even though i don't really know you You've become one of my favorite youtubers, thank you so much for being someone i can realate to and making me happy when nothing really can anymore If you ever doubt yourself in the future, aways remember that you're amazing just the way you are and there are so many people that truly enjoy and appreciate your videos 💜

The odd cutie mark on Sunset's journal is a hybrid of Sunset and Twilight's cutie marks. I'd assumed it was PriTwi's way of showing her close friendship with Sunset in the gift of the new journal in Mirror Magic.

Wow, just wow!!! Best EG special! Period! Nothing to say. We have all been waiting for the reunion of celstia and sunset and it finally happens, twilight's reaction to the restricted section is priceless and the moment when sunset lost her memories and goes back to square one give me chills every time i watch it. The moral is just fantastic and i can totally relay to that. Me too i have those awkward moments i want to erase but it's better that way because without them, it's more difficult to make friends because it can work both ways. I can compare myself and wallflower, we have lot in common about that. I was just thinking, how in the world did you know that it was wallflower the one who stole the memories so fast? I was convinced it was trixie because of her been so jalous about the yearbook. Props to the authors about that and they also have done a really great job with sunset pressing record on the drone and making it "invisible" to the audience (pun not intended to the song but screw it i don't care). I didn't noticed that the first time i watched it. As usual, love your reaction to it and your one hour talk about that. Wish we could talk IRL about this because i have also a lot to say about it. Once again, bravo for that and hope to see ya soon at the season 8 premier. Until then, toodles and have a nice day everypony. *Bro-hoof*

30:20 There is also a little Internet/4chan humor present in that design. Wallflower is supposed to be that anonymous background character that nobody notices. When artists on 4chan depict an "anonymous" character in a pic they always use a dark or light green as the skin color. Also she's visually similar to Vivian James, the "official mascot" of the video games board on 4chan. Same frazzled hair, same striped sweater but with different colors. Okay they probably didn't mean for any of those similarities but they're still there.

Faculty lot = UNLIMITED POWER

30:48 After watching it for the second time, I noticed we can actually *hear* Sunset turning the camera on. Awesome! :D

41:44 that is seriously messed up when you really think about it. Wallflower didn't even realize after she was warned that, if you erase ALL of someone's memories of high school, they essentially become middle or elementary school kids in teenagers bodies, who suddenly find themselves 4 years older, somewhere they possibly have never been before and no idea how they got there. And the same applies with Sunset losing all HER memories of high school too. It's not just that she's mentally 4 years younger, but she's also now a pony suddenly finding herself in another world as a whole different species and no idea how she got there or why she's not a pony anymore. It's seriously messed up. 43:30 THAT right there is why I cannot fully forgive Wallflower Blush's actions. She wanted to get revenge on Sunset for not noticing her... which only happened because Sunset COULDN'T notice her because Wallflower kept erasing Sunset's memories of her. 1:16:10 don't forget the shorts. At least one short had Equestrian Magic cause a problem

So misc stuff. The pony stuff was the best, and Book Horse going full Book Horse was AMAZING! Also, so, now Clover was a dude? Celestia, thinking about it, I do think that Luna being back, and having other Princess to help share the burdens with and to support her has helpped Celestia loosen up and be more willing to indulge her trollish side. But that it was never fully gone. She's always seemed willing and wanting to remind her ponies to not take everything so seriously, to lighten up and have fun. BUT I do think that for Sunset, with NMM's return being so close, and Sunset looking like the best hope of freeing Luna, Tia might have been a bit harder, stricter, more no-nonsense then she otherwise would have, which did help push Sunset away. Twi, she loosened up, plus Twilight is the type to revel in that type of academic pressure. Though not without her neurosis. Still think there are SO many ways they could have dealt with the memory think, like, why didn't Princess Twilight pop over real quick to tell the Humane 6 "Hey, yeah she's telling the truth, you all got hit with Equestrian magic... again." Or press how nothing over the past yea makes any sense without Sunset playing a roll. Who talked down Twilight, who talked them into embracing their magic, who got Twilight to reopen the portal? Though rather touching note, this erased all happy memories of Sunset right? And all Twilight remembers is being yelled at at the games, meaning, every single other time Twilight has been around Sunset she's been happy. Shipping YAY! Flash, I like him being kept as a background joke, just shoved aside and forgotten other then to be mocked. Overall, a really really good story, great fun, even if it had a few issues. Still amazing!

Yay, welcome back bro! So good to see you again. So many people left the fandom... Great reaction!

Im so excited ive missed ur videos

Your reaction on this video was friggin epic. Hoping this isn't the last EQG video/movie. Would love to see a return of Twighlight or SunSet or StarLight in either world in the tv show. That would be epic.

28:36 The eyes exam chart with only E does exist it call a Tumbling E chart altho they supposed to rotate the E more than that.

APPLEGEEK!!!! I was having a really bad night at work, but it brightened up enormously seeing that you posted a video!! I understand completely about getting overwhelmed with life. Still, it is great to see you and know what is going on with you. I am also glad to see you are feeling better. Oh, and just to let you know, I was watching your reaction much more than the special. It is a great reaction as always.

Loved the reaction! Seeing this finally pop up on my home page was one of those "eh, I didn't need that extra hour of sleep" moments. XD Side note, unless I'm far mistaken they've actually dealt with two of the magic orbs. The one from mirror magic and the one that infected Twilight's watering can in My Little Shop of Horrors. Still plenty of them left though! ^^

You were holding your check mark plush backwards lol so that's how happy you were that reaction was LOL XD

i've been waiting, it has been awsome, thx

Great Reaction Apple Geek! Glad to hear your over the flu. I just went through the same thing myself. Not fun!!! What a special though, could of been longer, but still good! That Celestia hug moment gave me a tear, so precious!!!

Finally! Love it!!! ❤️❤️

Yay! You reacted to this! Awesome reaction as always by the way!

this special just gets better and better every time i watch it

This is your best video yet! Your reactions are priceless!

Celestia did hoped that Sunset would return and asked for her guidance in the first movie.

Nice to see a video form you again ^^ I'm definatly a wallflower... So I could so easy relate to her.

Hey man your reactions are awesome. I love watching reactors cuz it's like watching things you like with other people. Espeshaly cuz not all of my friends watch the same things I do. Keep up the awesome job.

Yes! I was hoping that there would be a reaction to this! I mean I was sure that there would be, I was just really excited. We finally got it! The reunion between Sunset and Celestia that we've been waiting for, and it was in my opinion anyway worth the wait! Plus seeing Twilight be adorkable was great, actually seeing being Celestia being a little bit intimidating towards Sunset at first was actually great to see, just really loved this one. Probably my favorite of the shorts/specials so far. Just loved it.

Yay!! I’ve been waiting so long!! Finally here!! :D :D I cant wait to watch it!!

Dear Applegeek, I love Your reactions! Thank You so much! =)

I'm the same way because I'm autistic i can't talk to people sometimes because they would laugh at me for it

I still wish you could have reviewed the first one. I'm sure your reaction to Pinkie summing up everything in one breath would have been priceless.

Notice after Sunset Shimmer is hit with the memory stone at the end, her voice changes to a younger sounding voice, as she forget years of her life. She also said somepony help me

I love your vids you should be famous you are awsome 😉😉😉

This may be to sappy but here it is. You are the reason I made my own MLP channel. (Crimson Shield) Because of you and your channel gave me the inspiration to try and give it a shot. It's not a good channel by any means but I'm learning. And I think every video gets better. All thanks to you.

Yay i was hoping to se this reaction from you! Hope your feeling well now.

12:57 She get's it in 'Mirror Magic' (the 3rd of the specials after *Legend of Everfree* ) She finished the book Celestia gave her and had to get a new one. This one's from Twilight, so it Sunset's and Princess Twilight's Cutie Marks merged into one

I just thought of something... I get that the girls think Sunset's photos are fake, but shouldn't they also have some evidence on _their_ phones? Surely they'd have to wonder about all the past text messages with her. Generally, a memory spell like this doesn't seem like something that would work well in the modern age.

That was awesome! Best line: Twilight: You have magic you do not understand, but its not match for the magic of- Pinkie: Yeah, yeah we get it. LET ‘ER RIP GIRLS!!

17:18 I know, right? the Twilights reactions have been absolutely glorious thus far

Old Ponish was apparently a half dead language used only by a few ponies even in Starswirl's time (hence why Celestia and Luna don't know it very well despite having lived in that time), so presumably the scroll Clover wrote is in that shared language the ponies and humans seem to have. Either that or Wallflower translated the scroll/learned to use the stone through trial and error. And given everyone still had their negative memories of Sunset, I think Flash would still remember breaking up with her.

Twilight was so adorable 😍

Best lines: This faculty lot you speak of sounds like a place of great power. Don't take this away from me! Sunset, that's when it gets good! Light'er up girls!! No student parking in the faculty lot!

That was me - I was just like wallflower blush in high school and later on too. And I only got out of it, by making friends - especially the right kind of friends who told me to stay true to myself and that I was an amazing person. And yes, I can relate with being depressed too.

12:26 Exactly. Many of those memories don’t make any sense without sunset. The humane six apparently remember midnight sparkle being defeated by nobody and their song against the sirens being completed by nobody. I bet that if they were told on the spot to recall those memories, their heads would explode or something

I love all his reactions during Sunset in Equestria :'D

That AJ shirt is adorable.

It's Morphin time, its Morphin time actually it's 12:30 sombody kill me I had to too!!😂

YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG!!! THANK YOU APPLEGEEK!!!!😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😁😁😁😁😁😘

its always a delight watching your videos

I just noticed Luna's lavender hanging on the pillars when they're walking through the corridor

I am so glad you turned down the volume when you scared cause i knew it was coming by the look of your face and i was getting ready for my ears yo explode *BTW I was wear headphones so I was really terrified for what i thought was going to come to be of my ears*

Don't forget about the choose your ending episode they have.

When Celestia said restricted area, I was like, *THAT'S LEWD!* LOL

I'm in the hospital right now so thx for making me feel happy

38:53 Good 2 know dat both Trixies are getting better with their magic. Warms my heart.

I wanna say something that I think you didn't realize but when sunset's memories of high school got erased her voice actually changed a little bit also something else to note is that when she lost her memory she didn't mention stealing twilight's crown so it makes me wonder how far did the memory stone erased in sunset cause it felt like it erased her memory of stealing twilight's crown too meaning this sunset that we see after her memory got erased is sunset when she was still celestia's student and before she had the thought of stealing twilight's crown.( if anyone wants to continue the discussion in the reply comments I'll allow it)

"No, go away please, Twilight," lol

I think there was a missed opportunity to have the rest of the Pony!Mane Six, Spike, and Starlight Glimmer appear in the Sunset-Shimmer-returns-to-Equestria portion of the special, even if just as silent cameos. Nonetheless, it was still a very enjoyable special to watch.

I reeaaallly wish the would have kept her motivation as natural as it is and a relatable spot for people to be in instead of explaining it was bcause of her reckless use of the stone that brought this about, effectively turning an understandable reaction into "Noone remembers me because I deleted all their memories but you are still at fault so I am destroying your life for that" which doesn't make any sense at that point. As for her song even if they don't release a full version it is luckily cut off right at the note that would be a perfect loop so it would be easy to edit a long one out of it.

I’m also a wallflower. Wallflower Blush is very similar to me in high school, and that mindset she had can lead to dark places. It definitely did for me. On a brighter note...Sunset and Celestia reconcile!!! (Cue the Ode to Joy music). My reaction was pretty much the same as yours. That image of Sunset and Celestia hugging is now my wallpaper.

I felt that way at bronycon when I seen you in the venders hall applegeek.

no ever expected this one. #1 friendship games#2 Forgotten friendship#3 Legend of everfree#4 Rainbow rocks.

YES! As soon as I saw, I knew Applegeek was going to ROFLMFAO so hard when Sunset went back to Equestria!

When you saw the Canterlot Castle what came to my mind was Doctor Strangelove due to your reaction.

42:39 Oh, this whole time I thought she said; "Light 'er up, ladies!!!" XD

Oh Gott, finally! I was waiting so long.... :-D Nah, kidding, I'm just glad that you're back again with the best of health. Was a kind of worried. I know sometimes it'z can be tough with a job + sickness and so on, so just glad that you're back. :-)

used some ancient evil, tried to destroy the main 7's friendship and ultimately got defeated, yep a new friend right on time

7:30 school doors lock from the inside during school lockdowns to prevent people who might have the intention to kill out. The principal and janitor have the key that unlocks all doors from outside.

when sunset shimmer and celestia hug each other, I pictured them as damien wayne and bruce wayne when they hug in batman vs robin.

I love your crazy reactions.😂😂

that's amazing reaction, keep it up! ^^
