MLP:FIM The Hearth's Warming Club S8 E16

So a Christmas episode in August. Well, why not? After all I am used to it from this show and the episode is delightful.


This episode is the second written by Brain Hohfeld (the first being Surf and/or Turf). It was storyboarded by Kat Dela Cruz and Ward Jenkins. Both have been boarding for the show since Season 6.

This is an excellent episode. It really shows how in such a short time, the School of Friendship's student have become as characters. They all feel completely real and devolved here. They also all play off each other perfectly. That is a real rarity is enjoying seeing the characters together just as much as on their own. Each tell about their own backstories and Holiday celebrations here, and they are all extreme well thought out and even quite touching at times. All in all this is just a pure delight of an episode.
