It's ok, I actually teared up a bit myself when I watched this episode earlier.. they portrayed Moondancer's emotions so accurately, its no surprise that it affected many people like that.

Kayter Tot "Panda" I did too. mostly because I've been there. my mom always said "never exclude anyone." so for my 8th birthday I invited my whole class to my birthday party. I made party favor bags and everything. the day came and out of 12 students.... only one showed up. it was the last party I ever had until I turned 13. it was only made worse when the next school day happened because the rest of the kids waited till that day to put the invitations in the classroom waist bin. I feel her pain.

The donut shop scene has a bit of symbolism hidden with Spike and Joe in the background. Twilight is freaking out that her friendships need to be renewed before they expire, Spike is just catching up with a buddy he hasn't seen in a while.

For those of you who think, 'well, big deal, Twilight was just one pony; who cares if she didn't show up!'... Moondancer is an INTROVERT, and it's implied that she saw and respected Twilight as her idol, her hero - the student of Celestia, a pony to be admired, respected, looked up to, someone she could follow, aspire to be like - and so... to have this pony - an extremely important figure in her life - not show up to her party... for an introvert like Moondancer this would be DEVASTATING...

YES! Especially since it's the first time she put herself out there. As an introvert myself, I can speak from personal experience, it makes so much sense that this devastated her. She would've felt rejected. Like she didn't matter to Twilight. A similar thing happened to me. I was devastated. Also, I don't take rejection well

23:03 - I *do* know what you're talking about. I wasn't a very social person growing up either, due to also having high-functioning Aspergers; Just like Moondancer, I too was the introverted, lonely bookworm, often left alone, mostly picked on for being different. But sadly, the one time I finally put myself out there and won all of their acceptance was the last night we ever spent together. :( And you're not alone, Luffy. I too almost cried when Moondancer finally realized that she still has friends who care about her. And Spike's present finally being revelaed hit me right in the feels! So don't feel ashamed if you almost cried, because I almost did too, for similar reasons ^_^

It’s good that they showed that despite how much Twilight has grown and become a Princess, she learns that her actions have consequences to other ponies. If Twilight hadn’t gone to Ponyville, she would have ended up like Moondancer. The door to her home was a nice symbolism for her heart.

Pretty much the same reason why I loved this episode. I don't think it personally resonates with me quite like it does with you, but you took the words out of my mouth when you were relieved that her friends weren't jerks. I got a bit nervous when Minuette was first introduced with Twilight but afterwards my worries were calmed down. I really appreciate that all of the characters were respected in this episode.

Awesome reaction. I almost cry when Moondancer started to cry. Sometimes we dont realize that the ones that needed more help were the ones that were closer to us. We all relate to Moondancer because all or most of us have experienced something similar in one part of our lives. I love when the show explore this kind of things. Also, great way to connect the seasons and is also nice to see Twilight with her old friends, as someone said once: "Make new friends but keep the old; one is silver and the other is gold".

Right in the feels with this one. I always had trouble with making proper friends and being social, so I'd always bury myself in a book like Twilight and Moondancer. In fact I am still socially awkward. I have to say you are one of my favourite reviewers on youtube, it's like, finally someone who has experienced similar situations to what I have experienced. and it is nice to see a reviewer who gives every episode a chance for a proper a review, instead of hating an episode simply because it didn't turn out the way they thought it should. I can't wait to see more reactions from you!

"No Fitting Songs, so no intro." .....You've got a friend in me?...... I wish I was better at communication. The fact that I struggle to write what I want to say is frusterating, especially since I seem to know what I want to share, but I lose that surety as I apply my thoughts to words, and it takes me longer than it should to compose what to say. I wanted to tell you Luffy that I relate with how you resonate with Moon Dancer. At first, I felt that her breakdown was a little forced, but I thought deeper on how she would have felt. The fact that her friend closest to her personality left without even saying good bye while deciding not to attend to her party; staying away for a long time, making new friends, and eventually getting rewarded for it by becoming a princess - Moon Dancer must have felt completely worthless, especially since she is so emotionally sensitive. It makes me root for her to do great things in MLP.

Oof. I was not expecting the feels near the end of the episode. Kudos to Kazumi Evans for that breakdown as Moondancer! She's got range and good emoting! I was similar to both Twi and MD, except instead of studying I was obsessed with playing video games. It also may have been my Asperger's. I didn't really open up to many people as a kid and only sorta started to open up in high school. I loved this episode too. Gotta love full circle closure.

02:46 The background music in this part is enchanting. I also love how much they paid attention to the little details, like, how the sound of her voice reverberates in the room, making it feel more cold and empty, which is amplified by the lighting of the night time. Or how the crickets are being heard far from the outside through the doors left open, or when there's some open window visible in the "camera" view. Or when in 03:22 the camera goes outside the building and the crickets are being heard loud and clear, while Twilight and Spike are behind the glass, so their voices are more dull. And the sound of the glass when Twilight bumps her head on it. And the lighting. Really well-made. Not overdone as much as in the S5 premiere or the Octavia-Vinyl scene where the ponies weren't much visible through all the lens flares and glows. Here, on the other hoof, it does its job very well. Also, am I seeing things? Or that constellation behind the window looks pretty much like a horse head? :P It's also interesting how the hourglass is all run out. It only deepens the mood that no pony actually been there for a long time. 03:43 Yup, it means that there are not many ponies who read books in Canterlot. And it's funny because there was a short fan art (a web comic) about exactly that ;J 05:00 Some pony seems to have wing fetish in here... :P (Trust me, I can tell, I live with Lyra ;J ) 05:12 You would get more answers, Minuette, if you actually let Twilight to reply to your questions, don't you know? :P 06:07 Another well-played little detail: Notice how Minuette breaks her donut at the precise moment when she says "you've moved on". As if she said: "your moving on has broken our circle of friendship" :> Very sneaky symbolism indeed! :> Which only makes you think that they're actually not so happy about that as they try to appear :J 06:55 Spike seems to have found some pony on his intellectual level :P 07:32 This is not a beaker. Beakers are cylindrical and they have...well, beaks. This one, on the other hoof, is called "Erlenmeyer's flask". 07:40 Filly Lyra! ^_^ 08:16 Haha I was thinking the same thing when I first saw this part ;D But it seems that it's not very original thought, since I saw two other reactors who did the same regard in this moment :) Or perhaps this was all set up so that we thought that :) 09:21 This comparison of Twilight and Moondancer was ingenious! She's how Twilight might have ended up if not moving to Ponyville and making some friends. 09:41 Same could be said about Twilight, if not the fact that she actually lived in a library, which was then her house. So she didn't have to move to do exactly the same ;J 09:45 Celestia's cutie mark branded sunglasses ;) Perfect fit for Twilight :J 11:34 Way to burst her bubble :P 12:14 +1 for you for knowing that :> 14:16 Oh hai SG :) 15:12 The faces of those ponies when Twilight materialized right before them - priceless :) 15:25 Exactly :> That's why she looked very much like Twilight recolour earlier. She must have been looking up to Twilight much. And her personal hero / best friend had let her down royally (no pun intended). 16:50 You can't hide, they will land upon you anyway :P What a better soft landing than upon another pony? :J 17:28 BUUUURN! Once again! :D And another proof that Pinkie should be the Element of Honesty ;J 19:04 I just waited when she will beat Twilight with that bat :D And even Twilight seems to be concerned about that in the next shot ;D

Moral: no matter what, never turn your back on your friends even if you don’t know much about them or if they sometimes make you feel dad, doesn’t mean they don’t care you. So always be there for them and appreciate them, in the end no matter what happened in the past, they will be their for you. And never miss a friends party if you can’t help it, you don’t know what effect it will have on them or yourself. If you follow this no matter what happens you’ll always have someone buy your side.

I've seen many beautiful animations from this fandom that got me in the feels, but I've never seen an actual mlp episode as emotionally powerful as this one. Twilight and moondancer's conflict already got me hooked up with this episode. The flashbacks, especially when moondancer was waiting for twilight just make me feel guilty inside. I literally broke into tears too when moondancer finally let her emotions out. The ending of the episode also gave the impression that twilight must leave her childhood friends behind again after being reunited with them for such a short time like a fading memory. Even though we sometimes forget about our old friends, we always cherish the time we spend with them. I must admit that I underestimated Larson's skill in writing such a heartbreaking and heartwarming episode, and I will always love and remember it.

This episode now has a special place for me as I also have had problems maintaining friendships with people I care about. My best friend, whom I've known since my freshman year, has always kept in touch with me along with her mom; who is generally a great person. But they've now stopped talking to me, even though I tried to call or text them. I was feeling hurt, especially at one time I was supposed to have a sleepover, but they'd changed their plans without telling me and while I had a good time, I was still upset that I didn't got the time together lime I wanted. Now, since she's attending college and her mom's busy with her new baby, I just feel forgotten. From what my mom had noticed before, my friend is pretty absent-minded and it didn't help when her mom doesn't seem to care. So I feel for Moondancer since I also know how much it hurts for someone you admire and care about as a person and friend but they don't seem to return the appreciation you give them. I ended up no longer talking to them when they didn't say anything nice when my birthday came up.

Moondancer was so relatable. I have a bit of a problem keeping friends. I rather stay inside than go out to see them. Friendships can be a little messy. Especially if drama splits your friend group apart at a young age. So I ask myself 'why keep friends, if they're just going to let things come between them anyway?' Therapys helping me though. At the moment.

As an extrovert i never really had big problems making friends. However i always stuck with the friends groups i had. Maybe it's because it's hard for to form a new bound with someone new that's a bit put off by my eye but that hasn't stopped the friends i have now. I made friends better online because they can't see my eye therefore they don't know about it. I even skyped with some of them after knowing them for so long and they already knowing about my eye won't as shocked as a complete stranger. This episode really related to that struggle. The friends i did make were friends that looked past or didn't even care about my eye. I may not talk to any of them as much today but doesn't mean I can't relay on them when i need them. A handful of my friends live in different parts of the country now one even moved to Canada so not like we can hang out but meh. I'm going to txt one of my old friends and see how she's doing.

I think the last time I got really excited about an episode concept was "Simple Ways". I mean, Rarity’s love interest having a crush on Applejack, which makes Rarity act like Applejack to get his attention? How hilarious is that? …Unfortunately, my high expectations for that episode were not fully met. In this one though, the opposite is the case. :) I never would have expected them to even remember Twilight’s old friends, and the way it was done was simply amazing.

EP 12 I love this episode largely because of the continuity and great characters. I love that Spike and the show brought up that Twilight Sparkle used to barely have friends before the show started. When Twilight Sparkle said start at the beginning it is awesome that it is literaly at the beginning the first episode. I was like awesome Colgate and Lyra even if they couldn't use Minuette’s fan name. I don't know why Spike is surprised Twilight Sparkle stayed up all night to find information. I fucking love Minuette’s personality it’s adorable. I love that Larson found a way to make a plausible explanation for why these 3 and Lyra are everywhere. I love the epic burn against Twilight Sparkle that she always blew people off before the show. I love the flashback because we get to see filly Twilight Sparkle who is adorable and I see Tara Strong’s Bubbles voice is coming out. I love that Moondancer is a palette swap of Twilight Sparkle and WTF was with Lemonhearts in the beaker. I started to get worried when I saw Moondancer’s house especially the interior and what she looked like. I love the comparison between Twilight Sparkle and Moondancer in that she is Twilight Sparkle if she never made friends. I love the “disguises” Twilight Sparkle and Minuette wore and that Spike doesn't even bother. Also as Twilight Sparkle can see a life without friends would've been very lonely. I love Twilight Sparkle’s attempts to interact with Moondancer. Also Twilight Sparkle should've know appearing in her book would make her look crazy. I love that because they are both so smart Twilight Sparkle and Moondancer get along. When I heard that Twilight Sparkle left behind a gift from Moondancer I wanted to facepalm. I love that Twilight Sparkle gave Moondancer her old home and that she is trying to teach someone about friendship like Celestia before the show started. I also love that Twilight Sparkle had to resort to using bribery on Moondancer. I like how awkward the dinner is. Also I did not see this the first time watching but holy shit Starlight Glimmer is in the background. I do not think this is some throwaway thing by the animators so my theory is that she has been stalking Twilight Sparkle to find out weaknesses and possibly ponies to corrupt. Although I do think Twilight Sparkle should've gotten wanted posters made of that crazy bitch. I think the flashback of the party was for the audience and how Twilight Sparkle thinks the party went. I love that Twilight Sparkle brought Pinkie Pie as her secret weapon and that Pinkie Pie knows Minuette. I also love that Pinkie Pie and Minutte seem like a great team. I love that they got Moondancer to the party with a trail of books. The speech Moondancer gives is heartbreaking for her and Twilight Sparkle. For Moondancer because she seemed like she had a very low opinion of herself and for Twilight Sparkle because she didn't mean to cause so much pain she just didn't understand friendship. I love how they all brought Moondancer out of her depression. I love the photo Spike gives to Moondancer at the end. I like the theory that Moondancer was so upset Twilight Sparkle didn't come to her party and left without saying goodbye was because she had a crush on her. Also that the streak in her hair like Twilight Sparkle isn't natural and she dyed it for her and kept dyeing it because it was her last spark of hope.

I can honestly relate to Moon Dancer quite a bit I was always the sort of weird kid growing up and in junior high I lost a few friends but it really hurt when one my best friends since elementary school didn't want to hang out or be my friend anymore because they wanted to be friends with the "cooler" kids . Even though that was years ago and I never think about it that scene in the 3rd act where Moon Dancer broke down and cried stirred up a lot of old memories and stung a little.

I finally got around to watching your reaction to this episode... This episode really hits you like a ton of bricks, doesn't it? I don't blame you one bit, but you know what I loved about it? It's the first time we've seen a character have an emotional breakdown in this show that was NOT played for laughs, nor was it dragged out, like with Rainbow Dash in 'Tanks for the Memories.' Sorry, I know you love that episode, but I felt that crying scene went on a lot longer than necessary. For one thing, they've never had a character just lash out in such an intense, emotional manner, and I have to give props to M.A. Larson for portray! I bet he re-watched the very first episode one day, and was like "Man, Twilight used to be such a bitch! Maybe I should write an episode addressing that..." Honestly, I would go as far as to say that Moondancer's outburst was on par with Steven Universe, which is a show that REALLY excels at portraying characters in emotionally distressed situations. Not to knock on MLP or anything (I AM a brony, after all), but I would LOVE to see more realistically-portrayed feelings from the characters in the show. Anyway, that's enough rambling, I loved your reaction!

A great episode and a sincere and amazing reaction from you Luffy! I’ve enjoyed all your reaction vids. I wasn’t a MLP fan till the last 3 weeks or so; seen all the seasons, a lot of reactions and most of the fan vids by now… the show is really good and kinda deep themed for a kid’s show and now I’m a fan. The show and fan work has left a mark in me… so thanks for your video :) No need to excuse yourself! I loved your reaction and can relate to it too; and I’m pretty sure a lot of ppl can too… Maybe you could react to some other fan animations? That would be pretty cool. Keep up the amazing work Luffy.

Even when I never was exactly in Moondancer's situation, I can totally understand how she felt. That's the reason why this episode is one of my favorites from S5, the whole situation feels so so real. I legit wanted to hug Moondancer tbh (Also now I wanted to see your reaction to _Flight To The Finish_ but it's no longer in YT. Where can I find it? o.o)

I really enjoyed this episode for similar reasons. I was a little nervous about the idea of going back to the beginning and exploring what Twilight was like before discovering the Magic of Friendship, but it was handled very well. It was very powerful to see Moondancer and realise how much of an impact a bad friendship or even a single bad experience can have on someone's development. I can relate to being hurt and wanting to push everyone away like that. And I've also been in the position of growing apart from someone and not knowing how they felt about that. This also seems to be the second time somepony tried to solve a longstanding problem with a big gesture but in the end talking it out was the real solution. As the same thing happened in Lost Treasure of Griffonstone. I wonder if that's going to become a recurring theme?

Thank you for sharing your reaction to this episode As always, it was enjoyable to see. This was quite a well put together episode with both it's callbacks to the past, and possible foreshadowing of the future, as well as one of the best emptional messages in the show to the date. This episode did inspire a genuine emotional reaction from me, and to be honest, I almost wish I hadn't watched it (as per usual for me, I watched it for the first time in your reaction, as it alliws me to A, compare my reaction with that of another, untainted by spoilers, and B, it allows me to act like I know people with similar interests). I feel a lot of empathy for both Twiligjht Sparkle and (Moondancer? Moon Dancer?) in this episosde, as I've been on both sides of the problem, and this episode really hit close to home. Sinxe I've already typed this much, I guess I my as well air out my full dirty laundry coated in self pity. For most of my life, up to a few years back, not coincedently the point I started high school, I was a shitty friend. While at first it started out okay, my social life quickly died. To do a number of reaspns, I was forced to look outside of high school for friends, so I decided to check on my "old friends". Some of them reminded me of my prior conduct, and informed me that they had moved on, and were not interested in my company any more. Some of them, on the other hand, straight up ignored me. So yeah, this episode was pretty much a gut punch, and then another gut punch, and then a another gut punch, and then a (happy ending that I don't get in real life) FATALITY.

Luffyiscool I can relate to this as much as you, Luffy. I'm at my 2nd year in college and I haven't made any college friends yet. (I have highschool friends, but they study at different colleges now.) I really can't relate to any sort of social stuff any other college students do, that's why I can't place myself out there to get acquainted to anyone else. Watching this episode makes me feel I'm watching my own shadow, it just feels weird to me. M.A. Larson really is the best princess!

Though it isn’t entirely twlight’s fault for what moon dancer became, twilight DID play a big role in what moon dancer becomes. My point, people gotta accept that twilight is a key piece to what happened to moon dancer. Twilight didn’t even visit, she completely forgot about moon dancer and the others. What matters though is twilight is also the reason moon dancer managed to recover.
