For me, Chapter 6 was easily the most disappointing MLP entry this year.
The “ending” was kinda anticlimatic and rushed, but it was expected.
What really pissed me off, though, is the way Misty was written, especially in the second part of the finale.
||To begin with, she feels ooc to me in this episode, especially when she says to Opaline that “she actually feels sorry for her”. She doesn’t even sound empathetic here, it’s more like she’s only mocking Opaline or trying to insult her, which just feels off somehow. Please, don’t get me wrong, I like how Misty finally stand up against her former abuser, but some of her lines still felt jarring. I mean, her element supposed to be “empathy”, after all.||
||Not to mention, that she didn’t even try to go after Opaline when she went to Bridlewood. She followed her to Zephyr Heights but not to Bridlewood, where her dad, Alphabittle was? I mean, she looked kinda sad when Opaline took her cutie mark, but she didn’t look worried the slightest, when this evil, dangerous alicorn went to his dad’s hometown. No, all Misty worried about here was “her tree” and her cutie mark, and that’s about it. Even Pipp and Zipp flew to Zephyr Heights as instant as they’ve heard that Opaline’s there, because they were obviously worried about their homeland and their mom.||
||This scene alone took everything they’ve tried to build up in the previous chapters with Misty and Alphabittle, and threw it out of the window. But at least in TYT she clearly cares about him in her own way.||
||I was also hoping that we’d have seen some kind of interaction or confrontation between Opaline, Misty and Alphabittle, some kind of actual tension and character drama, yet it didn’t happen.||
The reason why I wrote 6 is that it feels rather sad that until Chapter 6, every chapter felt like an improvement over the previous one. I think I’d be much more forgiving if this wasn’t the last officially confirmed 3D and story-centric content for G5. Or if instead of the Secrets of Starlight special they’d have gave us a proper conclusion at least for this arc, in 1 or 2 additional episodes.
