Time for another "What's New and Hot" Post! With Maud Pie returning, she was starting to climb the ranks, but Tree Hugger won out in the end. Yep! Hippie Jokes aplenty! Discord was still holding strong, along with THE SMOOZE and we got a new pairing in the form of... Fluttershy&Tree Hugger! <_< Nice! Anyways... Here are the marathons leading up to tomorrow's episode. http://www.equestriadaily.com/2015/05/mara...ding-up-to.html Why do they put Sonic Boom SO early? It's like they WANTED it to fail. ![]() Due to work, the only thing I'll be able to catch is Pokemon, it looks like. Might be interesting to see it when it airs for once. Well, I've got work! See ya later!

LIVE STREAM POST! About to head off to work, but I have just enough time to put this in! We have another adventure happening due to the new map we got in the first episode! Today, we get the kingdom of the Griffons. It was also announced on Facebook that Gilda returns! Summary: Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie are called by the map to help at the ancient kingdom of Griffonstone! However, the two have a conflict as to the reason they were sent there! Been a while since I last saw Gilda! I wonder if being away has made her a better individual. We'll see! ![]() Here's the link to the Live Streams! Season 5 Episode 8 Live Streams Well, I've gotta go! See ya later!

After 94 episodes, Gilda finally makes her second appearance in the entire series. Not only that, but also we finally learn some backstory about the griffon homeland. I also couldn't help but notice that every griffon we now know of has a name that starts with G, so I wonder what that indicates about their culture. The next episode (episode number 100!) won't air until three weeks from now (June 13). Sure, that seems like a long time to wait, but considering some things I've been up to lately, I'll gladly take advantage of this large break to get a few things done. |

Alright so quick thoughts on last week's episode: good. Stoner pony was funny, reminded me of Saints Row 2 Shaundi and Discord was as awesome as always. Smooze was also a lot cuter than I thought he/she/it would be. Now for this week's episode. Just finished watching it and I thought it was virtually flawless. I really can't think of anything I didn't enjoy about it. I like that the map played a role again and it seems to me like Lauren Faust's original goal to make the series more adventure oriented could still come true. I was pretty surprised to see Gilda back(I guess I shouldn't have been too surprised since the episode was about going to the griffon kingdom). I loved the flashback with Dashie and Gilda as fillies(I don't know what a baby griffon would be called) and little Gilda was SOOOO ADORABLE!!! It was nice seeing Gilda reformed and actually get along with Dash and Pinkie. I hope we'll get to see more interactions with them. By the way, is Pinkie ever going to realize that Gummi has an attention span that makes a goldfish look attentive

Contrary to my usual habbits of waiting for quite a while until I watch a new episode (preemptive joy and all that ;)) I already did watch The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone today. When I read that it featured Gilda again I was too curious to delay since both, a return of Gilda and the Griffin kingdom have been on my list of things I hope to see in future MLP episodes (posted about it in a German forum). I found this episode to be really awesome. Rainbow Dash's immitation of Twilight was hilarious, we saw Pinkie Pie at her best, I loved how they messed around with the probable expectations of the audience with regard to the Griffin kingdom turning out to be a "...total dump". Another thing I really love is how the show makes fun of itself. In spite of the good story and all I couldn't help thinking that they were pushing the "friendship is good moral button" in a somewhat clichee kind of manner when Rainbow Dash simply worded my thoughts: "Whoa, Pinkie. That was... really sappy." That was just awesome. Same as Pinkie Pie we saw RD very much in character and her ending up in kind of a wind channel where all her flying abilities by themselves couldn't solve the problem was rather awesome. Same as the preceeding episode about Discord this one ranks among my favorites of the current season so far On another note, I have by now reached page 228 of my MLP fanfiction "Lessons in quirks" part of which I have posted at fimfiction.net, if anyone is interested and has the time and leisure for it I am always happy about new readers and their feedback

REVIEW POST! Okay, sorry I didn't get this up until now, but I just finished watching the episode. The reason I didn't get to it yesterday is because I got sick last night. I'll explain in the "How are you feeling" thread later. Anyways, this was a good episode. I have to admit, when I first saw the title, I was half expecting Griffonstone to be somewhat akin to Ancient Egypt. Boy did they kill my expectations. Rainbow Dash saying it was a "total dump" pretty much summed it up. I'm actually glad that they didn't bring Twilight. She would have been devastated if she saw what Griffonstone had become. (Not to mention the state of the library might've made her heart stop in a bad way.) Though I do admit I liked how Rainbow Dash made fun of Twilight. Hair-do and all. ![]() Gilda returns, and MAN was she still resentful! Not to mention I think she got a voice actor change. I really didn't like many of the griffons. They were SO greedy that they didn't do anything unless you gave them money. Heck, money was more important than saving someone's life to the tour guide. Not to mention that Pinkie was just being her usual silly self. The way she helped Gilda in making friends was kind of creative. It's definitely something I wouldn't have thought of. Finally, the point where Gilda chose her friends over some idol. I will admit it felt a bit forced, but was done rather well despite that. Oh, and I did enjoy the flashback of young Rainbow Dash and Gilda. All in all, a good episode that I can't hate in the end. They did a good job. Next up is the 100th episode! Let's hope certain fans at least give it a chance despite it not focusing on the Mane Six. I'm planning to take the whole week off when it appears just due to E3. Hopefully, I can talk to my manager about it. Well, see ya later!

I liked the episode overall. It was fun to watch and had many funny moments. Pinkie expecting gummy to finish the cake. her calling that gryphon statue old charmer, and others. To bad RD and Pinkie didn't stay for a day or so with Gilda, and I do hope Gilda appears again in the series. |

Yet another good one, season 5 has yet to disappoint. Gotta love all those griffins and their designs, I'm specially fond of Grampa Gruff, he's like a turkey vulture. I loved how the griffins were given traits and elements of Southern European and Asian cultures, given their mythical origins. They're somewhat like the Toydarians from Star Wars lore as well. Gilda's return and redemption is well handled too, and it's great to see she and Dash are friends once again, not to mention she'll hopefully help Griffonstone go back to its former glory showing friendship to everygriffin. Fun Fact: Arimaspi are a race of cyclops-like monsters from Greek mythology who were at war with griffins and constantly attempted to raid their gold. That's the creature seen in the flashbacks. Also, Pinkie X King Grover statue is now my OTP |

Let's also hope they bring back her REAL name, and when they are judged for it, they keep it rather than what they did the last time. <_< |

While that would be pretty cool I'd say it's pretty unlikely that they'll use Derpy's real name again. They might just end up calling her Ditzy or something else. The writers probably just see it as too big a risk now after what happened. |

I've not seen the trailer or preview. They may call her that, or maybe something like Ms Hooves, Ms. Doo, or whatever her official canon last name is. |

A certain character from way back in Season 1 is returning for the 100th episode! http://www.equestriadaily.com/2015/06/expe...aracter-to.html Wonder if he still has that part of Rarity's mane on him.
