Don't get me wrong, I'm loving season four as well... It's just that, well, I find that episodes like Bats! Power Ponies and Castles-maneia just feel out of place when compared to say Flight to the Finish and Princess Twilight Sparkle. The contrast in terms of visual style and tone just feels off to me.

I kind of feel the same way.

The comics are very much the same.

I'm drooling at how Power Ponies and Bats! could be done in the comics now :lol

A miniseries where the Mane 6 and Spike travel between Comic books? A Western comic, a Sci-Fi comic, a Manga and a My Pretty Gecko comic for the sheer meta?:lol

Being that this is a forum for Power Rangers/Super Sentai, I hope someone takes footage from Power Ponies and puts it to the theme music from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!

Personally? "Bats!" is now my favorite episode.

Already been done! :lol

Bats was really good. For some reason I wasn't that excited about Pony this week, and Bats rekindled that fire. I love you ponies! :lol

Why wouldn't you be excited? D:
