I just loved how Rarity just had that strawberry-loving pony up her sleeve just waiting for the right moment to teach Applejack a lesson.

Let's be real though, Strawberry Sunrise's roast was the most savage thing I've ever heard. Also, including her, all the new secondary characters were awesome.

The scene where Strawberry Sunrise insults apples and makes Applejack angry is the funniest part of the whole episode. While I will admit that Strawberry Sunrise was a little too harsh saying all those mean things to Applejack, the latter pretty much deserved it.

This will teach us that Brutal Honesty can be harmful when you come off as insulting and not using tact.

This episode is a perfect lesson in this day and age, respecting other peoples opinons and points of view even if you do not like it nor agree with them. But at the exact same time when giving an opinion be more considerate to others hard work.

Cowboy hats are actually a purely practical functional item for farm folks, especially older farmer types. They help keep the sun out of your eyes and your face/ears from burning in the hot sun when you are spending the entire day working outside in the sun. Helps to keep you a little cooler and also keeps at least some of the dirt and mess from constantly getting in your hair.

11:49 Rarity is the Metal Queen😂❤

A lot of people compare Inky Rose to Maude while I'm just sitting in the back saying "That's obviously Wednesday from the Addams Family"

11:46 what I got out of this scene was the writers expressing just how stressed Rarity was through music.

14:34 yeah. applejack took over spike's role as the element of BRUTAL honestly in this episode

Rarity is the best guitar player on the planet

I liked this episode. Some people dislike it and say Applejack was "out of character" or "flanderized", but I think it's just a side of her showing that we don't get to see often. Kinda like in Hearthbreakers, she seems to be so sure of her values and views that she looks down on things she doesn't understand. In that episode it was the Pies' "weird" traditions, in this one it's fashion. And to be completely fair, she WAS asked to be honest, and the opinion that fashion is ridiculous isn't even that strange. As for flanderization, personally I think that most of the mane 6 actually STARTED pre-flanderized, so to speak, and have been gradually getting de-flanderized throughout the seasons. A lot of their personalities have gotten less one-dimensional, for example, RD is much less of a stereotypical dumb jock than she was originally (she's gotten way more mature), AJ has this new traditionalist aspect and not just "yeehaw apples honesty", Pinkie quickly got depth to her with the "smile" song, Fluttershy's overcoming her shyness, etc etc. Edit: Also, the moral is great, though some people seem to misunderstand it. It's not "lie to be nice", it's "if you don't like something it doesn't mean it's just bad, some people might care about it a lot, be nice". Kinda. Anyway, a pretty essential lesson XD (and now allow me to list episodes and characters of this show that just suck and anyone who likes them is wrong)

11:48 BEST REACTION TO THIS SCENE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now if only we can get punk Rock Rarity to shred on guitar.

10:03 Inky: "It's to create a distressed look." AJ: "More like an _old_ and tattered look!" Uh-oh, she said old. I think Rarity just got triggered.

Well Applejack, you've reached SugarCoat levels of honesty...and even I think she wouldn't be THIS blantantly honest

Moral of the episode: If you are fall out with someone, you can kidnap and tied them until they do not want to make up with you. So children, if someone does not wanna be friend with you, kidnap her and talk her into want to be one.

11:50 omg!! This scene is mind-blown!! Guitar rift babe!

Anyone else notice how when Applejack said "My closet is nothing but 20 versions of this hat" And Applegeek put the screencap up there, there is exactly 20 hats in the closet? (Yes, I paused and counted them)Also, Applejack has become Apple Cowell.

I like episodes when Rarity learns something, but I really love it when Rarity is the teacher. Rarity for the win!

16:27 If we never see Strawberry Sunrise again after this episode, I think I'll know why.

Reminds me of the episode where they have a sleepover at Twilight's old Tree house.

Applegeek. I have to say you are one of the few reactors for MLP to really has good things to say. You may not be an analyst or reviewer and I like your most neutral approach to these reactions. You showed how to see a series just to have fun as well as the lessons it teaches us at the end, and despite your love for Applejack you are not biased as the vast majority is because it's A or B character the episode or story is bad. I like Starlight, Flash and Equestria girls but people would then come and say that I shouldn't and I'm wrong for liking them, heck i would get maybe an eyebrow raise from you since well I'm not a fan of Applejack. Anyway love your reactions as well as the after comments of each episode keep up the great work, and Can't wait for the next one.

AppleJack: Element of BRUTAL honesty!

16:27 AppleJack should've said "Well, next time you have a heart attack, you only have yourself to blame for not eating a single apple in your life." Apples do in fact help with your heart, so I have heard.

You know, I actually figured out the subtle differences in the two belts. The one Photo Finish holds is a lighter shade. It's incredibly subtle, but it's definitely there.

Rarity's punk guitar solo.. totally lit!

Another episode, another round of highlights: 1:01-1:10 Yeah. Just happened to be. Of course. 1:12 No, he certainly isn't. 1:13 Classic Pinkie humour. 1:25-1:31 That's a very sweet idea. Although Pinkie says "awesome". 1:36-1:45 Again, that's so sweet of her. 1:46-1:50 I agree. Selfless, generous and awesome. 1:54-1:57 Two characters we're eager to see return. 2:05 We wish. Also, why is she still using the "countess" name, I though she dropped it after The Mane Attraction. Did she revert back to it? 2:07 We've already seen her this season. 2:08 You wish. 2:11-2:33 I'm with everyone here. WHAT?! 3:03-3:10 Plus, we just had a title sequence, Rarity. She has to say it for those just tuning in. 3:11 Your reaction to the title. 3:17-3:28 I'm with Pinkie on this one. 3:43 This is true. Also, it looks like Rarity didn't need to buy her that new one (Made In Manehattan). 3:52-5:58 She didn't mean that literally Pinkie. 4:12 That's honest and true. 4:17 Not at all. 4:34 That's a cute hat Applebloom. Also, she and Rarity now tie for most appearances so far this season with 6. 4:46 I do wonder why he just gave that look and didn't say "nope". 4:56-4:59 As useful as a who on a whatnow? 5:23-5:38 I'll admit, that is adorable. 5:44 And Bingo was his name-o. 6:06 Here she is. 6:10 Him too. 6:15 Saying "kiss" as you kiss. 6:18 Oh yeah, she is. Although, Ashleigh and Andrea have done that in the past, too. Fall Weather Friends and Buckball Season, respectively. 6:22 Another character callback. How many are we going to have in this episode? 7:01 A historic moment! Also, a funny joke. 7:06 I think that's the point AJ. 7:09 A funnier joke. 7:15 Rarity: "Applejack, shut up." 7:21 Funny dramatic fainting. 7:32-7:41 And the jokes keep on coming. 8:25 That stereotype. 8:37 Yep, she has no idea what's going on. 8:43 Is he meant to be based in someone? That voice sounds familiar. 8:59 Vampire/Goth pony. 9:06 My thoughts exactly. They're almost twins. 9:12 Because she doesn't know what's going on. 9:47 Nope. 10:00-10:14 I totally agree with Applejack here. I've never understood why this is fashionable either. 10:25-10:33 Another reasonable point. 10:39 That face and puppy moan. 10:47-10:53 Ouch! 11:05 They're confused and upset. 11:28 That guitar only has two strings. 11:49-11:55 That was unexpected to say the least. 12:11 Nice Dragon Ball reference. But I think a Stone Cold Steve Austin one would've been better. No one says "What?" greater than him. 12:25 Harsh, but honest criticism. 12:36 Wow, that's a lot of buttons. 13:07-13:30 I agree that's too harsh. Especially considering how long and hard she worked to get it that way. 13:50 She's been in this situation before. 14:14 The nail in the coffin. 14:21-14:26 Agreed. There is such a thing as too honest, Applejack. 14:48 She can't think of anything to say, so she just coughs. 15:01 Too honest, AJ. 15:27 Answer: she's not. 15:36 That is technically true. 15:44-15:48 So don't say it to begin with! 16:00 Strawberry Sunrise? She's not inspired by Strawberry Shortcake is she? Lawsuit Hasbro? 16:03-16:34 Applejack gets a taste of her own medicine. 16:20/16:27 Also, these comments and your reactions to them. 16:34 Nice meme. 16:37 In your face, Applejack. 16:52 And Bingo was his name-o (again). 16:54 Oh boy, indeed. 17:05 Applejack learns her lesson. 17:30-17:56 Kidnapping...and more kidnapping. I thought you wanted to get on these ponies good sides AJ? 18:09-18:13 Well... 18:16-18:22 A good message that everyone should respect and follow. 18:44 Oh. Also, your reaction. 18:59 I think she did. 19:11-19:16 Whoops. 19:26 Now you're getting it. 19:30 Oh Applejack, the sacrifices you make! XD 19:50 Our thoughts exactly. 20:48 Can't even what? You keep saying that! Give us some context! 20:58 An emotion she doesn't understand. 21:11 That's what I was going to say. 21:29 And of course she chooses all three. How could she possibly decide between them? 21:49 You're trying too hard Applejack. Overall, another fine episode. Although it is getting harder to write my comments, Applegeek. You and I literally think the same things most of the time. I look forward to watching the next episode.

18:55 serves you stallions right after what you pulled back during Fluttershy Leans In

I kinda was expecting Applejack to say something bad about strawberries, but than I remembered that she likes them cause she ate some on her pancakes in the episode Castle Sweet Castle.

I want to see that goth pony in the future. How about an episode where the cutie mark crusaders buy gothic clotes from her and go to school dressed as goths? Imagine the look on Cheerilee, the other students and the main 6 faces. And how would Diamond Tiara look as a goth? I bet Spoiled Rich would really freak out.

Lily Lace (If that’s how you spell it) reminds me of Rarity when she says “I CAN’T EVEN”...😂😂😂

If you listen to how she says some things, AppleJack was honestly seeing all of the outfits as to how it could benefit/be against farm work. She wasn't taking in how some ponies might just want to look/wear something nice and instead thought everything should just be work related.

Generally, farm hats are made to protect the head from the sun and prevent heatstroke. It can also keep the sun out of her eyes

10:43 AJ roasts the best, tis episode is full of burns now that i think about it.. also i didn't know rarity can do rock music c:

I love the moral. it's OK to have a true honest opinion, but there's a difference between saying your opinions and being rude and saying bad things about it. it's better to give constructive criticism and still be kind. other than flat out saying "awful! no one would wear that!"

You know what I'd like to see? Maud Pie, Inky Rose, and that one unicorn from "Canterlot Boutique", the one who was drawn to the dress inspired by Luna, all forming their own "Deadpan Goth Group." The fact that one's an earth pony, one's a Pegasus and the last one a unicorn, well... Also, yes: Maud said she could shred on guitar like nopony else (she might have been joking, but with Maud, its always hard to tell), so she and Rarity jamming out together would be *epic*... heh, maybe they can include Inky Rose and Goth Unicorn Girl (did she even have a name?), and Rarity can don a goth getup? I mean after all, Rarity was/is a member of that one quartet group, why shouldn't she be apart of another singing group? XD

AJ seems to have missed the point that a 'healthy dose' of something isn't just about having enough of it, but also not having too much

Your own reaction to Rarity shreading Pinkie Pies guitar, was priceless and was my exact same reaction to that. Its a good thing that Rainbow Dash wasn't there to see that, or Rainbow Dash would have giving up playing the guitar.

For a minute I thought Applejack was going to say " That dress conjures up images of...that time I tried to make dresses when we got our cutie marks swapped."

rarity must've been super stressed playing the guitar like that.

Now that I looked at Hoity Toity more closely. his ear is long.

finally someone is actually talked about this and I've been trying to get this through peoples heads about what you're saying right here about everyone having their own opinion and all that. because you're right people just flipped out big time on the internet and be careful you could always get thrown in there and have no way to escape other than to basically find the notification button for that thing. well if there is any at all. so basically you gotta be careful on the internet on what you say. because it could always come back with a full out heated argument between you and who knows how many others. I think you're the first one to do this I've ever seen not even Dr wolf said something like this or even talked about it at all. so I'm actually very surprised you're the first one but also anyone ever did it not just you.

I loved the "over 9000!" Dbz joke! Nice one A.G.! 😆

1:11 [He really is not going to give up on his crush, is he?] Not until the day they pry Rarity's body from his cold, dead hands.

11:50 absolutely love it!

19:52 interesting about the picture at the bottom is that I watched The Princess Bride a few days ago. Such a great film

YOU NEED TO WATCH EPISODE 10 NOW! YOU WILL GO CRAZY

I REALLY like the dark outfits, plus I just got inspiration for character groups. :)

I completely lost it at photo finish saying," KISS KISS KISS"

11:50 Rarity really killed it on the guitar with a hint of electric guitar solo. Applegeek's reaction to her playing got me dying 🎸🎸🎸🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣

oh I can't wait for him to watch the next episode

Those designers are quite characters. Lily Lace specializes is fancy, lacy, gowns & dresses, yet has a Valley Girl accent. Star Streak has a fancy posh accent, yet he looks like a mad hipster scientist and makes "future" clothes (most them look more retro than futuristic but what's old is new these days). Inky Rose though true to her gothic attire, yet is a bit of an anime junkie (some of these clothes look like they came from animes) & was the only that designed men's clothes in the contest (and I'm guessing Tunnel Web, her model, is also her boyfriend 😉🤭).

Sparity is a total guilty pleasure for me. It's absolute wish fulfillment, not that they'll get together, that's dumb, but that "functional infatuation" is sustainable. I know it's bad for me and everyone else, a cancerous idea that will give anyone a bad experience if they're ever stupid enough to try it IRL, but I just melt every time I see it. sigh.

11:50 WHAT IN THE...

I love the part when Strawberry Sunrise insulted Apple jack and I love the clothes the designer ponies designed.

Strawberry Sunrise was just amazing!

3:40 - Did they say in one episode that AJ's hat belonged to her father and they implied that that's why she always wears it? (Or was that a fan fiction?) 7:01 - Yes! And they look so -- so pony-like! So normal! So -- so CUTE!!! 9:06 - Oh, Maude would LOVE this dress! And probably the pony who designed it, too! (But she'd probably want to find a way to add rocks.)

the one line I remember of photo finish Vat just happened off when fluttershy became famous

19:00 It take 4 stalion to put down the light but 1 mare to bring it back up.

In my opinion the part where Rarity played Pinkie's guitar was the best part of this whole video. (Especially considering that it only had 2 strings to play it)

In the episode babs seed apple bloom was crazy of how she looked to first meet her cosin so might want to review that a lil for futer refrence just a suggestion but then that trait aj mention would make more sence =3

11:50 - 11:55 WHOA! YOU GO GIRL!

I've been waiting to see your reaction to this episode, and you did not dissapoint. Rarity guitar shred for the win :D Truly a mare of many ( hidden ) talents. Also Apples vs Strawberries XD The Feud is Real!

haha applejack is like simon cowell when it comes to judging

Hiring Applejerk to judge a fashion contest is just like hiring Zesty Gouramand to judge a baking contest

Here it is!!! I checked my notifications every second for the last, like, 2 days!!!

btw. i would call the band "the carousel stones" guess why :'D

I walked out of the room at that Rolling Stones joke. Idk how I didn't think of that before.

the funniest thing about Spike's crush on Rarity is Cathy Weseluck Spike's voice also voiced Rarity in

Now we need an episode where twilight is to magical, or pinkie pie is to laughter-ey

I will never get over how adorable Applebloom is

I liked this episode, it's just that Applejack was a bit too much; especially when she ruined the mare's hat with the feathers on them. Feel free to call fashion ridiculous (Because it can be ridiculous at times) but don't ruin someone's hard work like that, that part made me really angry at Applejack for that. But, I did like that she learned her lesson, and Rarity shredding on the guitar is just amazing to see. The fact that it wasn't fan made was also awesome. Great reaction and can't wait for more! XD.

At 5:17 Apple Bloom trips on her scarf made out of her bow!

This is probably my favourite after-reaction talks from you. I agree with pretty much 100% of it all

MLP logic: You can legally tie up people with a lasso and kidnap celebrities.

"The Rolling Stone" text got me to the core

I am greatly enjoying season 7!! Especially, seeing your reactions :D

19:00 Nope. They lowered it slowly for a reason. Though they could’ve just done it with one, they had to be careful. Plus they’ve been at it all day. Applejack, however, could’ve broken or damaged it by yanking it that hard.

your reaction to rarity playing guitar was PRICELESS

great reaction, I love this episode so much

My mom: Materials, like wool an tulle. My brother: Colors and accessories. Me: Function and practicality. Fashion can have function, and beautiful should be practical.

AB's hat is like your hat.

Meanwhile, I can tell that you won't be prepared for Episode 10.

One thing I noticed was representation of the three tribes: Lily Lace, a Unicorn Star Streak, an Earth Pony Inky Rose, a Pegasus :D

This was a fun episode and one of my favorites this season, great reaction.

love the episode and love rarity on pinkie's guitar

6:06 The 2 stallions are a reference to Picture Perfect Pony song. They are literaly the same stallions xdxdxd

We've seen Applejack's multitude of hats and Applebloom's multitude of bows before. They have an entire 'hats and bows' closet.

1:31 pinkie just shoved that guitar- actually its pinkie. *dont question her.*

20:02 "Please start now!"---Photo Finish, 2017 XD

Rarity is a Metalhead!!!!

Applejack: WHAT!! Pinkie pie: WHAT!! Spike: WHAT!! Rarity: What???

Or they could include Rainbow Dash in the band. Her, Rarity and Maude could be the Stone Temple Pilots.

APPLEGEEK DONT WATCH COMMENTS! JUST WATCH THE NEXT EPISODE! SAVE YOURSELF FROM THE SPOILERS!

I totally agree with you this lesson and episode was great just wait till you see episode 10

"20 versions of this hat in my closet" If you want to take that a step into the meta, they got 20 different hat poses ready in their animation rig bin. ;) I think Rarity just let out her anger through that guitar (rather than swearing). Your reaction was priceless, and the Rolling Stones joke just made it for me! XD Also, the name Inky Rose sounds familiar... Drop the y perhaps...? Or add a p...? ;) Looking forward to your next reaction. XD

7:02 I know right it’s so epic

Photo Finish should react to these episodes. She'd make a great reaction partner for you.

at 20:24 through 20:34 this stallion wearing the fashion clothes looks like the Gothic version of spiderman, Damien dawn, and male version of raven from teen titans. also nega ben from omniverse in the episodes 'and then there were none' and 'and then there were ben'. I like the stallion design and the clothes by inky rose.

Your intro always makes me smile.
