I kind of liked this episode, actually, Lightning Dust was an interesting character. I liked the moral they had for the end. There's one thing I didn't like about the ending, though, and that's that the episode ends with RD staying in the academy, which doesn't make sense from a writing perspective. Since we're probably going back to business as usual, this creates problems for future episodes. Are they going to take place while RD is still there? Will she still be able to see her friends and interact with them? What happens next?

The ending somewhat confused me, I couldn't tell if Dash was officially made a Wonderbolt, or just a lead pony in the camp. Lightning Dust was a great character. Very realistic as an antagonist, you could see where she was coming from every-time she did something wrong. Spitfire was encouraging her reckless behavior during the beginning of the camp. She is a competitor, so she continued to stay reckless, and was then punished without warning. I kind of felt bad for her, especially because she didn't have any beef with Rainbow Dash, she was trying to become good friends with her. Spitfire getting screen time was pretty cool. The tough coach persona works pretty well for her, although it confused me at first, because whenever she has spoken outside of this episode, her personality did not at all reflect that she was a hard-ass coach.

Even though I liked the episode for the most part, there were still a couple things that I didn't like. The ending was altogether pretty weak and unclear. The Pinkie bits in between seemed a bit excessive, but I guess they held my attention. Given, they did help support the other storyline, but not very well. Once the balloon popped they weren't in any realistic dangerous. Twilight could have easily cast a spell to save all of them I am sure, and Fluttershy has wings for crying out loud. If they would have just put Applejack and Pinkie in the balloon, there could have been more of a realistic sense of danger. The part where RD quits the academy was great. However; they could have made the ending a lot more clear. Did Lightning Dust get kicked out of the camp or just demoted? Is Rainbow Dash a Lead Pony or an official Wonderbolt? Either way, I feel that the episode was strong. Not the best of the season, but I did thoroughly enjoy it.
Also... Masters! Your round 6 pairings are up!
