Description:
And now here we are with the final season of the whole show, Season 9. Oh, God Amìghty....
Just like Season 8, this season is just downright awful.
Once, the Mane Six are absolute jerks and idiots here.
Many episodes were cruel towards the poor Cutie Mark Crusaders.
Big Macintosh marrying Sugar Belle was just terrible. Personally, he should married Marble Pie since they have a lot in common. (And no, I don't think that Applejack and Pinkie are cousins).
The Student Six (Apart from Ocellus) are, again, boring, dull and easily replaceable.
Princess Celestia and Luna retiring was just stupid and dumb. It's said Equestria needs FOUR princesses to rule it! You can't expect Cadence and Twilight to look after EVERYthing!
The songs (With the exception of The Magic of Friendship Grows) are easily forgettable.
The Legion of Doom was absolutely pointless. I think that Chrysalis should have been reformed, Tirek can still evil and Cozy.....she can just burn in Hell!
Oh, but that's not where it gets worse! Oh, no! There's another thing makes Season 9 really bad, that is Discord! What the flying f--k they did to my favourite reformed character?! Faking his own death, disguising as Grogar and bring other villains together?! Have the writers forgotten what happened in Twilight's Kingdom?! MisAntroPony talked about it ruined Discord and I agree! Link to video: https://youtu.be/wRX34nMTP-c?si=DdqT631bQ7ZELzKT
However, just like Season 8, there are some gems here and there.
The fighting scene with Chrysalis and Starlight was really cool and gave me vibes to Dragon Ball Z and Super Mario Bros Z.
Fluttershy acting a mother to the eggs was pretty cute.
Cozy getting caught in the giant snowball was really hilarious and satisfying! That's what you get for failing your test on purpose and blaming the CMC, b---h! >:)
The Magic of Friendship Grows is a beautiful song, although I think that it should have been used for Season 7 and the 2017 Movie (As I consider them to be the REAL series finale to MLP).
No favourite episodes this season as they're all rather bad.
However, there some episodes I'm neutral to.
Between Dark and Dawn is an alright episode. I do chuckle at Celestia being scared over a chicken. The montage was pretty amusing too. However, for my version, I would have Celestia and Luna taking a holiday (Similar to the Fat Controller taking a holiday in Sir Topham Hatt's Holiday and Thomas and the Magic Railroad) instead of them planning out their "retired life", plus I would make Twilight less stupid in my version.
Sparkles' Severn is a other decent episode. I will admit that I did chuckle at Luna and Spike revealing their plan to everypony (Delightfully devilish, guys!😈) Mind you, that Cutie Mark Crusaders, Bon-Bon/Sweetie Drops, Lyra Heartstrings, DJ Pon-3/Vinyl Scratch, Octavia Melody, Derpy Hooves and Moondancer also should have been in the episode by the helping the girls with their plan. Also, for my version, I would have the Mane Six's parents in place of Shining Armour. And finally, I would have Raimbow clocking Zephryr Breeze in the jaw! That spoiled stallion can go f--k himself!
For my least favourites, they are Growing Up is Hard to Do, The Last Problem and The Last Crusade.
For Growing Up is Hard to Do, it's a pointless episode! A terrible way to end the CMC's arc! Not to mention that Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow are complete idiots here! Saying to their little sisters that they're "young to understand" and not allowing them to go by themselves?! Um, hello?! Applejack, didn't you find put thay your little sister was able to care of herself in Somepony to Watch Over Me in Season 4?! Rarity, didn't you learn to accept the fact your little sister is growing up in Forever Filly in Season 7?! And Rainbow, didn't you say that your little sister is a foal of her own decision in The Washouts LITERALLY A SEASON AGO?! God, did you three mares take stupid pills this morning?! Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow are nothing dumbass in the episode! https://youtu.be/atwzcoRRcy8?si=oBDFmH9SENwi4DAK
Next, The Last Problem, it's an awful series finale! The whole going into the future was completely unnecessarily (And personally I think that it's overrated), Luster Dawn is really annoying and pointless and the future designs for the characters....UGH! They look so ugly! They make the designs for Thomas and his friends in All Engines Go look more pleasant! Granted, the song at the end was really beautiful, but still.
And finally, The Last Crusade. To me, Snap Shutter and Mane Allgood are just really terrible. The fact they leave Scootaloo for so long and when they finally come back they’re like “Oh we’re going away again and you’re coming with us and we don’t care if you miss your friends or not”. Those are the kind of parents you don’t want in your life. Now, some say that Aunt Holiday and Aunt Lofty make the perfect parents, but I disagree. They’re nowhere to be seen when Scootaloo gets her Cutie Mark or does her report is just awful. To me, they’re just as bad as Snap and Mane. Not to mention Scootaloo said in the episode Parental Glideance “ Growing up, I never thought I’d be the best at anything, because nopony ever told me.” This could indicate that she has badly neglected by all four ponies. This is why Bow Hothoof and Windy Whistles make the perfect parents for Scootaloo. Sure while they somtimes go overboard with their support towards Rainbow, their hearts are in the right places and at least they’re actually there for her. If they did the same thing but with Scootaloo, that would have been great. To me, it was completely unnecessarily to bring Snap, Mane, Hoilday and Lofty into the show. Bow, Windy and Rainbow are Scootaloo's REAL family. As Kyle Broflovski from South Park said “Family isn’t about whose blood you have in you, family is about the people who cared about you and took care of you.” Sure they’re not the same blood, but Rainbow loves her little sister. And so do Bow and Windy. For my headcanon, Bow Hothoof and Windy Whistles adopt Scootaloo and make her their 2nd child and Rainbow's official little sister.
Overall, Season 9 is, not only the worst season along with Season 8, but it's the worst series finale too in my opinion.
And that's it! Those were all my tier rankings for all the seasons of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic! Hope you all enjoy them and let me know what your favourite episodes from each season are down below!
