Celestia scared of chickens. Why am I imagining a young Celestia having a Legend of Zelda moment with chickens? That was pretty scary to experience when I was a kid.
Nope. Clearly she had a terrifying run in with some cockatrices as a filly. It's another long day of being cooped up in the Castle of the Two Sisters. Another day of taking boring royal lessons and studying all day. Celestia is feeling restless. She asks the teachers about taking a break and exploring the Everfree Forest but they forbid it. Frustrated, after she sets the Sun and Luna raises the Moon, Celestia voices her concerns over dinner. Luna is sympathetic but says that if what she's seen in people's dreams are anything to go by the Forest is full of monsters. Celestia is unconvinced, mostly because of how exaggerated dreams tend to be. While Luna acknowledges that ponies's dreams are not always true to life she still maintains that they come from someplace real. So, just to be safe, Celestia should maybe find some other way to unwind. Unconvinced, while Luna is fighting dreams, Celestia sneaks off to go play hero in the Everfree Forest in search of her own adventures. A few hours later, just after busting up some Timberwolves, Celestia feels satisfied and tries to head back to the Castle before anyone realizes she's gone. But she soon realizes she's lost. Celestia stumbles around trying to retrace her steps and accidentally disturbs a cockatrice. Panicked, lost, and turned to stone, Celestia is trapped in the forest with no hope of escape. After a long night of busting nightmares, Luna goes to wake her sister in one of her dreams only to find that Celestia is having a nightmare about the Forest. Only after briefly dispelling the terrors pursuing Celestia in her dreams does Luna learn that she is trapped in the Forest. To save her sister Luna will have to leave Celestia to deal with this on her own but promises to save her. While Celestia tries to make it through this nightmare, Luna races to find her in the Forest. Once she does she searches the surrounding area for the cockatrice responsible. Then she uses what she has learned from various nightmares, foreshadowing her eventual transformation in Nightmare Moon, to intimidate the cockatrice and get it to undo Celestia's petrification. Terrified and exhausted, Celestia stumbles forward while Luna catches and soothes her, letting her know she's got her and that it's finally over. Celestia gets time off from classes as Luna helps her to cope emotionally and have more fulfilling time to herself. Celestia now reads about adventures and they play games and have fun together as sisters. The end. ...or at least that's what happens in my head. I don't know that we have anything canon on hand. I still like the idea though. And hey, why not? I think it definitely adds something to their individual characterizations and relationship as sisters. And I like it. Anyway, laters.
One thing I liked about this episode, is that it emphasized that the sisters are RULERS. They spend their time in the castle, attending meetings, and delegating. The running meme that they “never do anything” is kinda false, they are constantly working hard to maintain a kingdom. It’s like getting mad that a president isn’t personally arresting drug dealers. Besides, when you think back to most of the premieres and finales, Celesia and Luna either weren’t in a position to help, or were incapacitated. There were only a couple times where they intentionally stayed on the sidelines.
Celestia and Luna definitely needed the vacation they took in this episode, especially since they had no experience with living the live of normal civilians, which of course now they do.
4:34 Wish they could do that to a lot of bridges in New Jersey! Most of them here are dilapidated! 4:59 Blank’s epic laugh returns. 8:31 Luna getting giggity is so cute! 19:51 Luna’s “naked”
This is easily in the top 5 of my favorite episodes of the entire series. This was brilliantly written and plotted and I was smiling and laughing the whole time.
I am glad to see I am not the only person who loves the tiny details like faces and horn crossing. My favorite thing is the micro movements. Usually movement is from one position to another, but adding a small movement or multiple really adds to expressions
Excellent reaction. Was it recorded at BC, considering the "No, you're breathtaking" reference? Either way, it was great talking to you briefly at Bronypalooza. Thank you for doing what you do, Blank.
Fandom from Day One: WHY DON'T TEH PRINCESSESSESSES HALLLP Mane 6 This Episode: O GOD MAKE IT STAHHHP 4:34 I'd complain on behalf of the engineers and construction workers who got cheated, but if they built that original bridge they need to get de-jobbed anyway. Its construction rivals the crane made of nailed-together lumber in The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well for public endangerment. Even if it's not quite as awful as the bridge on which Apple Bloom sings in On Your Marks. 9:08 "Because that's something that can only be done from the castle. ...Uh, and that spot where the Golden Oak Library used to be."
I love your Blind Commentary. My favorite seen is 16:23 were Twilight is Pumping up the Bubbles. Her face when Fancy Pants walks in is adorable. Have a wonderful day Blank Check.
9:55 Dash: "One question: WHY??" Twilight: "It doesn't matter [...]" Me: "Actually it does. We already covered that in season 6, 'Applejack's Day Off' I believe. The whole point of that episode was to make sure you aren't doing stupid things that don't matter anymore."
Long ago, the ponies of Equestria lived in harmony. Then, everything changed when literally all the villains in the series attacked. Only the royal sisters could stop them. But, when Equestria needed them most...They vanished and left the job to Twilight and her friends.
"You think i LIKE that kind of pressure?!" So you're more worried about the pressure than not have your sister at all? Priorities, Celestia, sort them out!
I’ve watched this but I always love to see blank’s reactions I have a biased for him cuz his OC’s hair is grey/white and Kakashi Hatake is my favourite character in naruto so... Anyone with grey or white hair I have a biased to lmao
1.Oh, are you trying to bring up a reference to avatar the legend of Korra and the last airbender?2. Celestia and Luna are me at different times of day when I am on vacation.3 this is me with my brother.4 love zip lines.
9:52 If yellow armor symbolizes the royal guard for celestia... and the midnight like armor solidifies lunas royal guard... what does that black armor stand for?
I personally have mixed feelings about Celestia acting normal. What made her so likable in the early seasons was how Ruler-like she was. She was wise, proper, but still had a subtle playful side. Key word: Subtle. She just felt like a powerful ruler. Seeing her acting so normal just kinda demeans her character for me. Luna always had an overly playful side starting with Luna Eclipsed so it's not as weird with her
I havent watched MLP in a few years. This popped into my recommendations. Suddenlt seeing princess celestia acting like this was kinda staggering but I think I can get used to it.
For beings more than 1000 years old, they are both incredible bad in telling others stuff in due time. Twilight is like a hundred times better in it and she is like 20 or so😅 Seriously Tia, Twilight was your Student for years and is supposed to take over for you and you NEVER TOLD HER there are subjects for the jobs for her to delegate? Yeah, complete fail on her part...
"so this is how you rule equestria" -Twilight skip to 5 days later Twilight sits upon his Dark throne, as everypony else being worked like slaves. "I think you may have gone a bit too far to the other direction" -Spike

Guess Celestia won't be visiting Ponyville with Scootaloo around.
Abi Sain use the moment in game grumps where Arin gets dan to blindly try and kill a chicken.
@@YoukuroKageStudios Scootaloo is Luna's secret weapon against Celestia when they fight. :3

THANK 👏 YOU 👏

@@paan4261 No they're not
Celestia and Luna definitely needed the vacation they took in this episode, especially since they had no experience with living the live of normal civilians, which of course now they do.
Luna in the post office is precious. I really love her more and more enjoying the small things in life.
When is Luna NOT precious!? (except when she's Nightmare Moon!!!)
That was one of the most adorkable moments in the whole series, for certain.
Michael A Burns luna spent a millennium on the moon. Everything that’s mundane to us would be exciting to her.
It's my opinion, but I simply HATE Luna

I like how Rainbow points out that the princess's have not helped them in these situations until now.
I'm used to seeing Celestia and Luna as royals so much, seeing them acting like normal ponies is actually kind of surreal.
On the Chicken thing, clearly at some point Celestia has been to Hyrule.
Or on Plunder Island (from Monkey Island) where she met El Pollo Diablo.
Either that or she punched one in Skyrim & discovered the unending wrath that is the town guards once they're triggered.
@@HereticDuo they will literally go three oblivion just to make you pay for stealing cheese XD
6:05 I would love if Luna and Celestia had to solve a friendship problem
for some reason i am kinda terrified if that happened lol
@@SaraSong-mw3zm its because it never happened before
YESSS

Or he/she is picking up on some gossip by listening in😂😂😂😂
@ 10:51 You can see Capper leaning on a tree on the background.
Mystic Frostgem Thanks.
I noticed it this time too! How did I miss him 3 times?
*Season 9 Has been pretty good so far, loved almost every episode, and blanks reactions make them even more enjoyable😁.*
Im pretty sure Blank could make Watching paint dry enjoyable haha.

I think twilight needs redstone, gold and iron for that Timepiece at the end, and a crafting table.
Hahaha!!! Nice episode!!

19:52 that’s the most “nude” I’ve ever seen Luna be in the show
Oh gosh your right, every other time we seen her and her sister wear royal jewelry. It’s weird.
Opening scene: Never fails to drop a mention of a Lion Turtle or Torterra
I was thinking about Torterra when I saw that thing
I was thinking that as well!
Luna:YOU MEAN BOSS AROUND
Celestia:CALM DOWN LUNA
Luna:NO 😂😂😂
10:49 Capper in the background!!!
Shoutouts to the movie!!!
This season reminds me of old animation, they show much more expression and most animation now of days don't
HELL YA IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!
Same here...same here
Luna being the designated chicken-scarer is ironic, given the events of "Sleepless in Ponyville".

The new faces are like Season 9A-12 SpongeBob levels of exaggerated

This episode is a lot of fun
Good seeing you at BronyCon! Sorry we couldn’t get a pic, but it still added to an amazing weekend. :)
BEST EPISODE EVER AND DDID THE COVER OF THE CUTE SONG OF SISTERS! YAAAAAY! ♡♡♡♡♡♡ LUNA LOVES WICKED! YAAAY@
Oh hi Rose!
Dude Capper is in the background at 10:51!
02:44 I just now noticed how spike landed XD
10:49 HOW DID I miss Capper there? OMG.
11:47 And Celestia bought a couple plushies.
Loretta Bes dang
Have you noticed that Luna's mane during agruing was nearly turning into Nightmare Moons?
"You think i LIKE that kind of pressure?!" So you're more worried about the pressure than not have your sister at all? Priorities, Celestia, sort them out!
"There, fine, they're doing stuff now, HAPPY?" -Hasbro, probably
I’ve watched this but I always love to see blank’s reactions
I have a biased for him cuz his OC’s hair is grey/white and Kakashi Hatake is my favourite character in naruto so...
Anyone with grey or white hair I have a biased to lmao
Ms UltimateCringe where did you watch it?
Saul Is a person

CELESTIA AND LUNA ARE ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING *a few seconds later* NOW THEY'RE DOING TOO MUCH!
In Finland its now about 1.50 am but I live for mlp so I'm awake.. Lol
Now thats dedication
In my opinion the only way to express how much yes is in the episode is a Viking screaming YES
The following episode was brought to you by 2snacks. XD Yeah, definitely feel as though they got inspiration from there.
I am laughing SO MUCH in this review!
Imagine either the diamonds or their pearls going on a vacation.
Great reaction!
Sincerely Littlepip from Stable 2
Don't pull this "Fancy Pants is a condescending asshole" bullshit...
Who here remembers Sweet and Elite?
Their bickering near the end mirrors that of the animosity between Starlight and Trixie in the episode "Road to Friendship."
We all know what this means:
Celestia is scared of scootaloo
I’m sorry... that’s such an old meme 😂

I've been wanting an episode like this... for 8 fucking seasons. Well better late than never.
This is basically a fan animation with the real cast and great animation.
Me first glancing at the episode: Yep defentily a DC writer.
i was lauphing when celestia got scared of the chickens and the rest of the moments of celestia and luna were funny
