I'd say my favorite thing about the special is the expansion on Allura's character. I'm glad they are touching on the fact that she has to contend with a new climate while being in Maretime. It's nice that we a softer side to giant kitty, not just with her showing how much she cares for Twitch ( 19:16 Look at that face 😻) but also about her home. I did not expect her to be homesick. Her design screams "Rebellious" to me with her hair style and ear piercing. Really brings "rebellious teenage phase" to mind. I like to think it's because of her desire for complete freedom. Being able to whatever she wants, wherever she wants. She doesn't want to be tied down or stuck in one place, which is why she wants the nova charm. With it, she could go between any and all the realms she wants whenever she feels like it, with her brother at her side and Twitch tow. Because of all that, seeing her seem to miss home was interesting. Perhaps that's where her brother is. Stuck in their home realm like how Allura is stuck in Maretime bay. I really hope we get more on who her brother is and where their home is. A also appreciate the parallel Allura has with Izzy with being stuck (Izzy's creative block and Allura struggling to adapt to her new climate) and the message of pushing forward with the help of others. Izzy goes on a quest to find new inspiration with friends old and new and Allura is able to make a temporary home because she trusted Twitch's advice. That was nice. Its cool seeing another creature and a sea pony no less. I also like the line about laughter being magic. Reminds me of when the element of Laughter, Pinkie, made a connection with Skystar in the 2017 movie, (I don't know if that was intentional but I thought it was neat none the less). Given how we have Opaline and the dragons to represent fire, Allura and the auroricorns to relate to ice, The third element could be water with Destiny and the sea ponies, perhaps a villain will also be a water elemental. PS I really hope we get more on the Jade sea, Isle of Scaly, and Starlight Ridge before finding new locations. Work with what you have before bring in new stuff and all that. Side note: I love the new auroricorn, Stardance, and Destiny. They’re fun I hope we see them again soon. The board trot is really exciting and I can't wait to see what the nova shards bring out. Speaking of magic areas, Izzy says "Crystal B, you think of everything" when she puts on her scuba mask, as in Crystal Brighthouse. Which pretty much confirms the Bright house is now sentient, and I am totally find with that. The songs we have are definitely energetic, especially feel the magic. That song really does feel like something you would wake up to. Let your Magic Run Wild is defiantly my favorite, not only does it include all six members, but it is so grand, epic, and powerful.

I suspect that Destiny might be a natural Seapony and not descended from the Hippogriffs. On the other hoof, the G5 staff seems determined to give every sentient race a cutie mark (branding, of course). I don't really expect to see Destiny show up in the upcomng Set Your Sail comics mini, though she might turn up later!

I love the songs! And maybe its a special magic shield where only certain ponies can go through? 🤔

You’d actually be surprised by what you can make with just citrus fruit and ice. You can make a whole thick sweet thing out of it, called Dole Whip-which is pineapple and ice. You could totally make a smoothie with that recipe (strong blender, ice, fruit).

17:37 Lol “I want hug “The” Izzy” reminds me of my sister and her cat! His name is Carmel but my sister calls him nidge for some reason and she says “I want to hug the nidgey” you remind me of her

Hello! Gosh, I love your reaction! Thanks for your positive response, I enjoyed your reaction! I see you're so attached to Comet, so I'll help you with this: She's going to be appearing in the next special episode. How do I know? Lets just say this episode is "special" for me. Keep up the good work!

2:08-2:18 quite a role reversal! Am I right? 😂

[@alexnguyen4549]

31:47 am I the only one who thinks Izzy’s walk cycle is cute?

[@alexnguyen4549]

15:22 don’t you mean, Izzy “Does” It?

[@blueblaze7312]

11:58 Hella late, but did anyone notice Allura having a cutie mark?!

[@maverickbna]

You say it's Make Your Mark in the title. Could you do a second proofread? Thanks!
