Real talk though, why does no one learn how wrong it was how Ponyville was treating Luna? All it talks about is the lesson Luna learned, but she wasn't the only one who needed to learn something! All of Ponyville was being so insensitive!
Maybe because Luna came in with the huge booming voice and scared the crap out of everypony? That coupled with Pinkie Pie constantly egging everyone on. Also as we'll see in another episode that centers around Fluttershy, the ponies in Ponyville can actually be pretty mean.

They basically want her to relive her past and her worst-side of herself. It's kind of a mean episode. I mean think about it when Celestia visit no one dare treats her like that I know Celestia hasn't gone dark before but still regardless they all have so much worship over her, and they'd never treat her like they do to Luna. It's kind of not hard to see why Luna change in the first place. She was always seen like this even before she became nightmare moon. They were very insensitive to Luna. But Luna has been gone for 1000 years she doesn't know what this celebration was about either, no one explain that they are supposed to be scared, but in Luna's eyes they have always been scared of her, so she felt they were disrespecting her. They should have learned to show some love towards her too.
Luna: Surprise!!! I just now got all my powers back from before I was Nighmare Moon! Tia told me to get out of the castle and mingle, so here I am. Please like me, I do try!
@Oo-De-Lally Really? I always figured it was because she kind of ditched Applebloom because Twist got her cutie mark while Applebloom was a blank flank, and that seems a lot more likely than assuming a large number of people dislike a character because of their appearance. I mean, I think we can all attest to there being far less aesthetically appealing characters in the show than Twist.
We had that happen in front of our house on 4th of july once. My dad had PTSD from the military and nearly went out with a gun to shoot the kids. He didn't, thank goodness. But it was a hard night for us all. I was 8 and I still have issues with loud noises because of that night.
Edit: We lived out in the country, with the closest other house still about half a mile away. These kids came from a nearby town and went down the road doing this shit.
Hey PonyBro. I know, you probably know everything I am about to say, but some don't. So here goes. Luna was away for a thousand years. Before that, she was the 'mailed hoof' behind Celestia's diplomacy. She was 'Tia's General. And Equestria would not be what it is without Luna's contributions 'behind the scenes' in those early days. Because of all of this, Luna was all about planning battles and waging wars to defeat Equestria's foes. And due to that, she had little or no time for 'fun'. As we see in Luna's arrival at Ponyville, she has her traditional 'bat ponies', aka: Thestral Ponies, as her Royal Guards. Given the 'backstory' on them from both Hasbro and Fans, the Thestrals originally were fruit eaters, but over time, some evolved to be blood drinkers. To channel the aggression of the blood drinking types, Luna put them to work as her Guards and Nocturnal Army. As the series progresses, we see Luna grow and change... although not totally from her pre-banishment self, as seen in later episodes. Specifically Season 7, Episode 10. And even later in Season 9, Episode 13. Now, on to something we all know... the opening of most episodes in the first few seasons... At first, a wagon is seen being pulled by a random pony, but very quickly this changed to Big Mac pulling the wagon with Granny Smith near him. Originally it was an orange stallion with three blue horse shoes as a Cutie Mark. On the train: I will skip the first car behind the Engine for now... it's a double decked car. The next four cars, excepting the final car's 'porch' at the rear, have random ponies looking out the windows. In that porch area at the back of the final car are the CMCs. Now, back to the double decked car behind the engine... in the lower section we see three ponies from the Ponyville retirement village, and in the cupola (top part) we see Derpy, aka: Muffins, aka: Ditzy Doo peeking out of it's window. I only got into the MLP fandom due to near constant suggestions by a roomie that was staying with me at the time. About halfway through season 5, I finally broke down and watched every episode up to that point because I had plans for a vacation fall through and suddenly had several days of time on my hands. By the time I had finished season 3, I was hooked. And I've seen every episode since, many times. One thing though... While I was 'binging' MLP, my roomie came home from work later than usual to find me watching the series. He was a bit 'smug' about it all, until I mentioned something even he missed. You see, although he had seen all those episodes, and opening theme song animations many times over, he had never seen Derpy in the cupola. So, in a way, I 'got him back' for hooking me on a kid's show. Speaking-Frank-ly, Rhymer, the Thestral.
„[...] We go around and we just light fireworks in front of people’s houses at like midnight.“ Isn’t that what you do normally, though? I mean, maybe not. I just assumed the 4th of July is basically like the German New Year’s Eve... 😅
I'm kind of glad they only did the Knuckles thing with Luna's personality in this one episode. It was a fun standalone episode, but it would've been weird if she stayed like this, especially with some of the later songs.
Star Glitter Glow Hmm I guess that’s true. Although looking back, I don’t know why I hated pip this much XD. But yeah, considering all my spike abuse I guess you’re right. The female ones are just too cute to get mad at I guess lol (usually)
Spike must have an identity issue because he must think he is a pony at times, I mean he is a dragon and yet he dressed up as a dragon how does that make sense?
1:36 im 12 and im still awake and it's 4:26 in the morning for me ...oh wait... i forgot i have a disorder that makes sleeping absolute toucher... i really need some sleep... 😓
12:14 It took me forever to realize the CMC are among the trick-or-treaters (Nightmare Nighters?), but their costumes are brilliant.

1000 years of fear does that. And twilight said they learned some people may originally be scary, but they can be totally different
0 likes@Rekushi_ Well, it's hard to tell when they do that since they seemed genuinely scared when it came to Luna when she tries to fit in with the society.
