Revision as of 02:49, 8 August 2014
- Alternate Aesop Interpretation: Showing that even years after the fact Fluttershy is psychologically damaged by childhood bullying and teasing could certainly be seen as a message about just how badly that kind of thing can hurt someone.
- And the Fandom Rejoiced:
- Derpy is back after a conspicuous absence from the last two episodes. Some had speculated that Derpy may have been completely removed from the show as fallout from Derpygate.
- Fluttertree became canon (though it was technically canon from the start, as it originated from a conversation in "Over a Barrel").
- Spitfire shows up near the end.
- This episode finally shows Rainbow Dash in a very sympathetic light after the treatment she had been getting through much of the season.
- Same with Angel after his behavior in "Putting Your Hoof Down".
- Having another Fluttershy episode was certainly nice.
- Big Lipped Alligator Moment: The muscular pegasus appearing for a few seconds and screaming YEAH! Never established in previous episodes, has a Non Standard Character Design, and barely acknowledged after an appearance.
- Character Rerailment: Angel seems to be more sympathetic towards Fluttershy, considering his behavior in his last appearance.
- Rainbow Dash also got her Heart of Gold back, after several episodes where she was written without it.
- Crazy Awesome: Referred to by name by Rainbow Dash.
- Ensemble Darkhorse: The massively-muscled pegasus with the tiny wings, who had fanart within about ten seconds of the preview clip airing.
- Harsher in Hindsight / Hilarious in Hindsight: Fluttershy breaking down after everypony laughs at her? Be glad she didn't become a psychotic killer.
- On the Hilarious in Hindsight angle, several months before this episode, there was this piece of fan art shipping Fluttershy and an OC named RGB, whose cutie mark is a tornado.
- On the Harsher in Hindsight side, Getting Back on Your Hooves had a Circle of Shame flashback to flight school disturbingly simular to Fluttershy's in this episode, only with Rainbow Dash, despite the chapter being posted about two weeks before the episode aired.
- Moe: Rumble, Thunderlane's little brother.
- Nightmare Fuel: The very Hitchhock-ian scene of Fluttershy feeling everypony's eyes on her.
- Rescued From the Scrappy Heap: Angel.
- Visual Effects of Awesome: The tornado scene.
- Tear Jerker: One scene in particular, not helped by the background music:
Rainbow Dash: Fluttershy, wait! So some punks poked a bit of fun at you and you got stage fright, big deal. You're not gonna go quit just because of that, are you? |
- The Woobie: Fluttershy, to unheard of levels.
