I love how Snails actually began to exist in this episode. Suddenly he has a purpose.


13:55 "Wait, did Snails have his horn in that frame?"
He really worked his horn off in practice.  :)


The episode that actually managed to make snails... not annoying or aggravating. That's an accomplishment in and of itself. My personal highlight is Fluttershy's outburst. As much as it should bother me to see Fluttershy so upset, that was badass.


16:06 - 16:30 Pinkie and Fluttershy switched personalities. Usually, Fluttershy is the timid one, and Pinkie freaks out if she's angry.

And it makes sense if we consider that both share the same voice actress, Andrea Libman.


14:51 "You guys need to be like Snails."
There's something you never thought you'd hear yourself say.  :)


This is a good episode. The concept of buckball is interesting. The dynamic of the characters is interesting. Fluttershy really snapped here.


I consider this episode to be one of the funnest I’ve seen this season. Fluttershy and Pinkie are the best parts of this episode to me, they show a lot of adorableness here and I love it! And having Snails being a likable character here is really great too.


Dude, getting hit with those "little rubber balls" hurt. Unless you've gotten pelted in the face by a kickball at full speed then hush. Because I totally have.


I think this might've been the start of AJ and Applebloom using "apple" as a stand-in for a swear word, which I feel like the writers might've borrowed from fan content after a while.  AJ says "What in the apple happened to those two?" here, and Applebloom says something like "What the apples..." in the next episode.


I never noticed that animation error, you have got a good eye(you also spotted starlight in season 5 in the background on first watch). Great merchandise you bought there


The puff ball hairstyle really suits pinkie.


And another guest appearance from Bloomberg in the background. Glad to see him getting recognized (but not seen by Ponybro).


When Fluttershy wasn't the first plushy showen, I was a little worried.<br>Never should have doubted.

22:10 "There's so much ass usage in this."
I wish we had a sport that worked that way.  I think the closest thing we have to that is hip checks in hockey.

This is episode made me like snails a lot more.

Josh Blackwell Snips is really the bad one. Snails is just the Silver Spoon of the pair.

Josh Blackwell Same here. It amazing how this show makes you like some of the characters that are considered annoying or downright mean.

I don't know why people dislike them. What wrong they did? They were more evil in Equestria Girls when they were demons with Sunset Shimmer but here what they did?

@@princessstarlaixyarixes8103ik this is rlly late but theyre just super annoying lol there doesnt need to be a big reason


Geez, fluttershy was VERY ANGRY. Don’t mess with flutters xD

Never mess with shy people in the first place. A quiet person isn't always gentle.


Its going to get harder and harder for you to hide this from your roommates lol glad your really enjoying the show


Derpy was both intentional and an error. She was put in on purpose, but there was supposed to be another pony to go with her but they didn't show up in the final product.

Right.  It was more of a layering error than an animation error.  There was supposed to be another pony layered in front of Derpy before the final animation was sent off to Hasbro.  She was only supposed to be visible while the animators were working on the project, for a laugh I guess.


This episode was cool.  Buckball is awesome (coming from someone who isn't really into sports here), and yeah, a LOT of people compare it to Quidditch.  Yeah, Snails' horn is FAR from the first animation error.  From clipping tails to missing horns, or sometimes random, meaningless alicorns hanging out in the background, this show is chock full of things like that.  XD


0:15 "I got a Twilight plushie."
Careful with those wings!  They can be rather sensitive, if you catch my drift.  ;)

"That drained my wallet; part of the reason I can't afford Bang anymore."
Ponies are better for your health than energy drinks anyway.


5:47 - that Pinkie's smile is infectious...


Snails has a voice identical to the one Mr. jinks had in those 1958 to 1961 Hanna-Barbera cartoons I wonder if that was the voice actors inspiration for the voice


5:42 "Why is Fluttershy goalie?"
Well you wouldn't put her on offense, would you?


I dunno, man... that many plushies?  I mean, that's a big responsibility.  You sure you're ready for that?  There's a lot of hugs involved.


23:48 “That’s the first animation error I’ve spotted.”

Well there was “Games Ponies Play” where you saw that Fluttershy had Twilight’s cutie mark.


21:42 well, for some reason he has a snail as a cutie mark and he's even called Snails


I'm at 10:48 and already I see where this is going. The competitive nature of AJ and RD are going to put on the pressure and suck the fun out of the game so Pinkie and Fluttershy aren't as good as they were when they were having fun. I'm exactly the same way lol

I have to say, this is probably my favorite episode so far, and I'm not even a sports guy! It's such a cool idea for a game!


From most of your commentary, I expected a Lyra plushie...


So i guess you could say Team Andrea is > Team Ashleigh at Buckball.


Fuck yeah! 4th Dimension makes some of the best plushies!

And yeah, their Pinkie Pie plushies are pretty rare, eg. expensive.


Snails didn't have his horn in that scene - he must just not have been horny then.


AHHHH I LOVE THEM 0:14 to 0:35
I wanted some like thaaat for a while agoo OMGG


Omg, i never noticed Snails don't have his horn...


that fluttershy prob stands up on its own


and a multi million bits sports was born,  ponies become enthusiastic about it and a championship very lucrative contracts was born.<br>or i like to imagine that happened.

Where did u get those plushies they look dope lol , I've been a fan for years and have bought 0 merch lol I def want some but more chance for ppl to find out lol gotta pass on that 😂


0:31 if he uses it in bed as a teddy bear while sleeping, I'm not surprised.

Let’s be honest here: Who <i>wouldn’t</i> use a Fluttershy plushie like that? :P

Let’s be honest here: Who _wouldn’t_ use a Fluttershy plushie like that? :P

Is wearing a unicorn costume like Blackface or something? Appropriation?
