When Spike said that Twilight it gave me the same feeling when I heard Gumball say to Darwin "You are not my brother you are just a pet who grew legs!!"
I'm really surprised but happy that they did an episode like this. Yeah the whole the parent isn't really their parent is a big fat cliche, but it worked. I love Spike's character and love how he's been developing, he really needed something like this for his character. Seeing Twilight's actual heart breaking was just, it was a punch to the gut. Even though I'm not adopted I can totally understand where Spike is coming from though; I mean he was defending the guy because he thought he was his dad, someone that he never thought he'd get to meet. I see this as an episode that it doesn't matter who or where Spike's parents are, but that Twilight is his true family and that's all that matters. Would I love to see an episode about Spike's biological parents? Heck yeah. But to me it isn't as important as this message was. I love that MLP still continues to do mature lessons like this; I thought something like this would be a little too mature for little kids to handle, but I think it's good that we have this for the ones who maybe are going through something similar or would like to know their true biological parents, this lesson is there for them.
18:50 basically confirms that Twilight does think of Spike as her son. I know Spike is young and he didn’t mean what he said but come on man, the mare raised you for 13(?) years and this is the thanks you give her? I always hated stories where a character meets their biological parent and forgets about their *real* adoptive parent who raised them.
Spike seems to often treat Twilight as fairly equal rather than a 'mom', but he loves her just the same-- but like real kids, he's sarcastic about it. Yeah, though, he really needed to be more sensitive to her, I think he got carried away. The Kung Fu Panda movies were the best, IMO, in dealing with adoptive relationships.
DW A lot of adoptive kids do that cause they are so excited to meet the parent who birthed them. It's just something that happens, many of them want to meet thier biological parent and get carried away.
julie martinez No I understand why Spike acted the way he did, I’m more complaining about the trope in general and when the character doesn’t learn this lesson by the end.
Personally i dont think of Spike as a kid though. Sure he is young by dragon standards but he is also almost as old as Twilight. If she was 5 when she hatched him and is 25 now, then that makes Spike 20 years old. Just some food for thought.
Well if you see it from his respective what he said really wasn't that bad as he doesn't think of Twilight as a mother I believe it was in the episode winter wrap up while he's sleeping he talks about "Mommy" but when Twilight wakes him up he says you are not Mommy which strongly implies that spicies twilight's mother as Mommy and not Twilight herself
3:03 "I like how Smolder was just sitting there, just watching." Free entertainment! All she needed was some popcorn, but unfortunately neither Starlight nor Pinkie happened to be around at the time.
I understand where he's coming from. I mean imagine if that was his real dad? He was still taking advantage of Spike, so if that was his real dad that would have been even more messed up.
1:54 "Trust me, Spike, it's understandable. It's very hard to do a flip." (crashes into tree) "It's very hard to watch where you're going." If Rarity were here it'd be five times worse, I guarantee it.
4:03 "Hopefully this is what this episode's about, bringing up the fact that... Spike's parents are probably still out there. They're probably not dead." Most likely, since A) dragons are really long-lived, and B) they don't have any natural predators (once they reach adolescence, at least)
I usually only get strong feels when bad things happen to Pinkie Pie, but that moment with Twilight was hard to take. I don't blame you for getting emotional, John!
I didn't think of the parallels between Sludge and Martin Mertens. Good catch! When watching, I briefly thought he was trying to repay Spike in a weird way (Potterbrony thought this too). That could've been an interesting twist.
Glad you like. This episode i was great . Also two episodes of miraculous ladybug just released and i got to say thery are some of the best episodes the show produced cant wait for you to react to them
Yeah, as nice as it would have been, they couldn't have gotten Martin's arc from Adventure Time done in 20 minutes...also, this show really doesn't feel like covering "asshole parents" as a plot point
I can only hope that Twilight has a more brutal side that she don't like showing to us, and it only appears when the cameras aren't rolling. That'll help justify any glorious headcannons I can come up about how some time after the episode, she got madder then we're ever see her be, fly off in a rage to hunt down Sludge while covered in flames like she was during "Feeling Pinkie Keen", and blast that lying, lazy Dragon all over Equestria for what he did to HER boy.
Oh yeah. When I made that comment, I forgot Twilight can enter that kind of kick-ass mode almost all of us wanted to see her to show to Sludge. I don't feel like editing the comment this time, since I do it enough as it is. So I'll just say here that I wish she show that side of her that she MOSTLY don't show, on-screen, anyway.
I hope cozy glow turns out not to be evil and it's all misdirection. That would be awesome! or it turns out she was evil but her evil plan is foiled in the cold open of the final, and then the real villain would show up (I'm thinking the real villain is the tree of harmony). anyway that's what I'm hoping for please don't spoil it if she really is evil I'm waiting till Saturday to watch the final.
Joshua Brony Why would the Tree of Harmony be a villain or evil for that matter? The Pillars grew the Tree in an effort to protect the light of the realm from evil. And sense the Elements of Harmony are an extension of the Tree’s power, they too serve its purpose to protect Equestria from evil doers.
TheFlamin' Brony92 I understand that but, why would the Tree give the Young Six friendship tests if it really was a “villain”? The Tree must’ve took notice that the Mean Six were evil and wiped them out before they could do harm to Equestria.
Sorry if someone's already pointed this out, but you posted the wrong Patreon link. Only people manually guessing it's supposed to be DYWTBA_Universe will be able to find the page.
0:01 - well, right off the bat, at least you're honest. Yeah...what do you call a content creator that creates a Patreon account? A sell-out. :p And one who _pitches_ their Patreon site? *_E_* -begger. Nah, I'm just joking. :p ...kinda.
Hey so wanted to point this out again but your Patreon link isn't working it just takes you to an error 404 page. Hoping to donate the 2 bucks for the Sunday reaction request.
Since there is only 1 season left in MLP you should either try reacting to Sophia the 1st or at least react to this Sophia/ MLP song. "On My Own - Sofia the First Forever Royal PMV"
Could u react to " the royal tutor ", I wanted to recommend this anime on your patreon but unfortunately I couldn't get to the page . ' 404 page not found ' 🙏 🙅👈

Sell out? You're not a sell out. Don't understand people who call people that.

So far this is the only thing to mention Klugetown, the name of the desert town in the movie.
3:03 "I like how Smolder was just sitting there, just watching."
Free entertainment! All she needed was some popcorn, but unfortunately neither Starlight nor Pinkie happened to be around at the time.
34:22 “I’m kinda really happy he wasn’t his real dad, and just a guy trying to take advantage of Spike”... Okay.
I understand where he's coming from. I mean imagine if that was his real dad? He was still taking advantage of Spike, so if that was his real dad that would have been even more messed up.
I wonder if spike tried to stop Sludge from tossing Starlight out the window.
While it started slow, the last few minutes had a great emotional payoff. It's moments like that which make this show great.
That heartbreak. I felt that.
1:54 "Trust me, Spike, it's understandable. It's very hard to do a flip."
(crashes into tree)
"It's very hard to watch where you're going."

11:08 OBJECTION! There is a huge contradiction in this testimony.
So Sludge was a big fat liar, but have we seen the last of him? And are we going to find out more about Spike's backstory? Maybe next season.
Glad you like. This episode i was great .
Also two episodes of miraculous ladybug just released and i got to say thery are some of the best episodes the show produced cant wait for you to react to them

15:59 Starlight Glimmer : What the Hay! No No No No No!
First? I really loved you reactions! Poor Twilight and Spike! Now for the finale!
I can only hope that Twilight has a more brutal side that she don't like showing to us, and it only appears when the cameras aren't rolling.
That'll help justify any glorious headcannons I can come up about how some time after the episode, she got madder then we're ever see her be, fly off in a rage to hunt down Sludge while covered in flames like she was during "Feeling Pinkie Keen", and blast that lying, lazy Dragon all over Equestria for what he did to HER boy.

Have you seen the latest EqG music video, The Other Side, yet? If not, that is _definitely_ a reaction-worthy one.
8:47 - ...yeah, that was f*ckin' annoying, Pinkie, lol. Love your reaction though. :p
I hope cozy glow turns out not to be evil and it's all misdirection. That would be awesome! or it turns out she was evil but her evil plan is foiled in the cold open of the final, and then the real villain would show up (I'm thinking the real villain is the tree of harmony). anyway that's what I'm hoping for please don't spoil it if she really is evil I'm waiting till Saturday to watch the final.

@@SpacialRend7 I think he's talking about when the mean 6 got zapped back to wood. They could have been absorbed into the tree.
TheFlamin' Brony92 I understand that but, why would the Tree give the Young Six friendship tests if it really was a “villain”? The Tree must’ve took notice that the Mean Six were evil and wiped them out before they could do harm to Equestria.
Twilight is Spikes Mother! Confirmed
