Can't wait to read it.

I'm hoping his pony self shows up in season six. Since they've done some major status quo shaking up in season five, maybe they could continue on and give Flash an actual presence in the next season.

But Moon Dancer was an excellent choice in the end. Let's hope we see a little more of her in season six.

I'm a sucker for time travel stories, and this one hit all the right buttons. Seeing all the different presents where the villains won was pretty interesting (though that last one, where Equestria was just a wasteland, was plain disturbing). I know a lot of viewers think Starlight's backstory is weak, but childhood trauma is one of the hardest things to get past. And since Starlight didn't even try to work through the loss of her best friend, and just shut herself off from making any new friends, it's no wonder she ended up so tweaked, having nothing but her pain for company all those years. And it's perfectly fitting for the theme of the show to have Twilight reach out to Starlight, and convince her to give friendship another try. Deep down, Starlight was still a hurt little filly. She just needed somepony to help her find the right way. Ultimately, having Starlight join the Mane Six as Twilight's "student" raises some decent possibilities for season six. For example, it has been mentioned that she is unusually powerful. Maybe there's a reason for that, set to be revealed later on. And maybe we'll see an episode where she meets Sunburst again. He too seemed to have a lot of magic in him. Maybe there's a future plot point there. We'll just have to wait and see. All in all, I really enjoyed this. I think I speak for all of us when I say "Bring on season six!"

Look at Sunset Shimmer. She never really had much of a motive for her villainous actions, outside of wanting power, glory and conquest. Even if her comics origin is canon, it still isn't much in comparison. She just wanted to be a Princess, with no real reason for it other than pure hubris. And don't forget that Sunset was forcefully purified by the Elements of Harmony. If anything, Starlight's reformation is more "real" in that she came to it herself, rather than it being forced on her.

But it's still his loss. It's not like he can find another mare with incredible musical talents just standing around that he can make a star out of and then leech off of. He'll have to go without massages for a while...

That last shot was probably meant as a final hurrah.

Lena Hall was just great as Rara, and "The Magic Inside" was such a beautiful song. As pre-season finale episodes go, this was top-notch.

But seriously, I've always liked time travel stories where the past gets all changed up, and the heroes have to fix everything. I just hope Starlight gets her comeuppance for this.

It made Rainbow look a little mean for ignoring/hating the poor, love-struck guy.

And at least she didn't hold a grudge over things in the end.

She really is following Twilight around..

Maybe next year, she'll be a tin mare...

Both Limestone and Marble were opposites to Pinkie's friendly, outgoing personality.

Seeing her struggle to keep the secret held in just got funnier and funnier. And I thought it was pretty cute how Pound rode on Gummy's back and gave him his pacifier.
