You're not alone.  Cozy Glow rubbed everyone the wrong way when this episode first came out.

And the fact the the finale was going to have a villain named Cozy Glow was leaked before this episode came out definitely didn't help.

@@AwkwardSegway95 I was fortunate enough to avoid the leaks in this case, but by then, it was pretty obvious because of how she had been acting.

Part of me feels like she wasn't always this bad, but she learned everything in the wrong context, hence probably getting the idea of "friendship is power" from things like friends doing things for you, giving things up for you, etc

I avoided the leaks thankfully. However I think it's safe to comment my thoughts on her. I think Cozy Glow has a cutie mark problem as well as a friendship problem . I wish they could've reformed her because I think Twilight and her friends and the CMCs could've done it. I mean maybe after leaving her in Tartarus in a separate place from Terek, they could let her out and then try to reform her. I mean if they reformed DISCORD they can reform Cozy Glow. I will be posting a similar comment on the episodes where it is more relevant.


Cozy Glow may be the only true psychopath among all the villains they've faced in the show.


Rarity: “I’m going to call you Repeatie Belle!”

Me: Congratulations Sweetie, you’ve earned another nickname for yourself!

So, what's her full name by now? Sweetie Squeaky Repeaty Dictionary Belle?

That line was ad-libbed by Tabitha. She went off script again and they decided to stick with it.

And Rarity's real/full name is Rarita Conchita Juanita Belle ;)


I liked this episode, but didn't like how Twilight was so quick to assume the worst in the CMCs. Sure, they had just been acting immature in desperate attempts to get in the school, but what she was accusing them of was downright evil. Still, that "your mom" joke helped lighten the mood a bit. Never thought I'd hear that in MLP.

Yeah, she could have at least investigated the case some more before jumping to conclusions, being a Princess of Friendship & all :q

@@bonbonpony I'd stay stressed but then I remember she's the princess of friendship and has been on this school for months. But then I remember she's Twilight and she's a princess so yeah, I dunno


19:30 A meme is born.
Also, this episode made me realize that Starlight's voice could work for ASMR. I can imagine the themes could be "Starlight Counsels You in Friendship," "Starlight Welcomes You to the Gulag," or "Starlight Soothes You As She Removes Your Cutie Mark."

The face that took the internet by storm in but a few hours.

My friend has that meme face on a coffee mug.

A meme face that was done by Fluttershy first in "Make New Friends but Keep Discord" ("We went to the store and got two cakes").

But of course, when Starlight did it, it became a meme because of all the rabid Starlight fans.

@@AwkwardSegway95 True, Flutters did originate it. But Starlight's version is a lot more quotable.


18:42 Starlight saying welcome will never sound innocent
 18:48 I want some empathy coco too
19:32 Starlight know how to appreciate a devious plan


Ah Cozy Glow. Probably my favorite or second favorite villian in the show. Just love how manipulative she is to make up for how conventionally powerless she is on her own.

Also love the moment the element of magic shines in her eyes. That was the moment I knew I'd enjoy her as an antag.


It's a rule of mine that nobody says "golly" unironically. If they seem to say it unironically, then they're either a conperson, or evil.

In my life on this planet, this rule has never failed me. Cozy Glow was no exception.


I can't believe Twilight so quickly to blame the crusaders for Cozy glow failing.


2:16 "I wanna go to Fluttershy's class."
And then you wanna be asked to stay after class.  ;)

WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?


Watching this episode makes me feel a bit for Cozy... like she actually defended the CMC and I think even considered them friends? Ah well

Of course she did!!! Why wouldn't such an innocent bundle of adorable cotton candy not do something for the friends she holds dear and will always cherish!?!?!

@@blueblur02 Yeah, it's all that Mrs. Cake's fault, and her triggering sprinkles ;)

I think it’s her just trying to project a false sense of security for them


@@estebanbr7596 she was gonna murder 7 creatures while imprisoning equestria's heroes for all eternity


Ahh this ep is concrete evidence  that paved the way for the gniess foundation of a rock solid friendship that will be forever set in stone.


5:13 why does nobody catch the Dead Poets Society reference there? "Oh Captain, my captain"

Some people did, just not here, I guess.


Imagine someone clipped the cozy glow scenes from marks fot effort, and then glued them to the ending of the end ones and showed that to someone


21:07 "She... she's just too innocent.  She just rubs me the wrong way, I swear."
Cozy Glow does give off some weird vibes, doesn't she?

21:07 "She... she's just _too_ innocent.  She just rubs me the wrong way, I swear."
Cozy Glow does give off some weird vibes, doesn't she?


So, now you've met the "Golly Loli".  Things can only get better from here.  >:)


This is a great episode. Right from the start I became suspicious of Cozy Glow. The way they resolved the conflict is interesting. The way that Starlight played a role is fantastic.


Hit list of Friendship, I can dig that for homework!


A rook for a cutie mark? Not a roc, at least, that would probably give Spike anxiety issues.


18:43 So Starlight still has some village life memories...


Never forget that Twilight's chair is not actually a swivel chair


04:07 Not something you would wanna have in class , eh? :q
05:15 Resurrecting some dead poets, I guess? :J
07:22 That pony looks like if she's been Sugar Belle's younger sister :J  Speaking of which... it bugs me to this day if Sweetie Belle and Sugar Belle might be related in some way :q
07:29 Hey, it's Shining Spectacles – the librarian with a mysterious past :D
09:09 Once you learn Friendship, you cannot unlearn it :J
09:23 That explains the sound :D
10:10 Hello, Shirley Temple / Darla Dimple pony ;>
11:28 That little snake was plotting against me all along :q
12:00 Me and my friends call it "being nice into your ass" :J
12:47 You thin this is hard? Try separating poppy seed from sand, as in one Polish fairy tale :J
16:00 She's really messed up in her head, isn't she? ;>
16:20 Well, the kite would have stopped at that bush anyway :q
18:48 This better not be sociopathy cocoa ;J
20:07 Well, if they stuck it in there previously, it's only fair if they now have to clean it up :J  How else would they learn to never do that? :q
20:24 The best way of removing gum is to freeze it ;) (e.g. with ice or cold compressed air). Then it's not sticky anymore :J  It becomes crunchy.
20:41 Twilight is slowly turning into Principal Cinch :q (by slowly turning in her chair)
21:15 Goood ;>
21:28 You didn't know it's possible? :D  You realize there's an entire business of selling diplomas to people? ;>


Don't know why but her been so adorable makes me worry


Dude im drunk af..and i gotta say this episode is awsone


Ahhhhh, yeeeesssss.  Here we go.  The epi I've been waiting for.  :)


12:07 - heh, I always knew Bon Bon didn't like pricks, lol

She likes pricking uninvited guests with her cactus.

@@fusionomni305 Ah yes, that makes sense. Nice to see you here.~ ^_^


I can forgive Angel being a fatass and eating that fruit, but only because of Cozy Glow.

However, it inconvenienced the CMC, which puts him back on my shit list.

Although in saying that, it's highly probable that they got enjoyment from the sharing lesson, which puts him ever so slightly in the green for this overall. Angel Bunny did good work this episode.


2:54 Scootaloo flying into that hoof bump tho ^_^


This is another season 8 episode where Twilight's behavior rubs me the wrong way.  For her to immediately jump to accusing the CMC of screwing over Cozy Glow on purpose, even after all of her history with them, without giving them any chance to defend themselves, is utterly absurd.


Actually dude Cozy Glow actually is based off Shirley Temple as her voice actress confirmed it.


14:02 in this moment my google assistant has been activate XD


She's too cute and nice...Something is wrong with Cozy...


Cozy Glow is the best. Hug the crazy filly


18:54 Maybe save those midnight confessions for your girlfriend, Glimmy. This is starting to feel a little uncomfortable.
