I loved the episode it was brilliant, and everyone was adorable ^_^ I'd like to see more of Coco Pommel.
Alot of older characters made an appearance. Others i noticed were Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, Saphire Shores, and Fancypants. And adding the newly introduced Prim Hemline, that's alot of fashion ponies in the series right now. *squee*
I'm watching the episode as I'm typing this. So far i don't really like the "girly" basis of this episode, as in i don't like how its based around a fashion show. although it is a show meant for girls, so w/e. also i just got to the part where Rarity sarcastically says ISNT FRIENDSHIP MAGIC!? and i laughed really hard at that bit. Also, what is this pony's name?
You saved me a lot of typing. I also think Rarity takes advantage of Spike by making him carry all her stuff. Heck, even if each pony carried one piece of luggage it's still much less for him to carry, even without taking into account, you know, Twilight being able to lift a whole ursa minor with her magic. I also didn't like that she won at the end. I think that was a bit too much of having your cake and eating it too.
