It was also asked of them what they wanted their characters to do in the series, like tabitha wanted noir rarity back, andrea wanted pinky to go to space, ashleigh wanted applejack to have this singer alter ego etc
This was the 200th episode of MLP and that's why I think they allowed the voice actors to write it because they wanted to most out of their characters for such a momentous occasion. Also like how they introduced cameos of Maud & Zephyr Breeze and how Spike finally received respect & rightful recognition from his closest ones.
"Uprooted" instantly became one of my favorite season 9 episodes, it was good to see the Student 6 come together to restore the tree of harmony although the fact that the tree took on a completely new form after the Student 6 made it into a tree house, that was just Hasbro's way of saying "BUY OUR TOYS" even though a Treehouse Of Harmony play set was never created for the official FIM toy line and i loved Silverstream and Smolder's dreams, i could totally picture Silverstream as a Wonderbolt although she was right she would have to be fitted for a uniform and it was nice to see Smolder in her tea party dress again, she still looked gorgeous and looked like a princess and the Student 6's song became one of my favorite season 9 songs, too bad this episode was sadly the first and last time we would ever hear the Student 6 sing though. Fun fact: "Sparkle's Seven" was meant to be a tribute and a thank you to the main VA's for all the years they've been participating in the making of the show, They considered it their one last hurrah before the fim series finale it was the one and only time the voice cast was given a chance in the writer's chair! and I loved all the references and themes in this episode especially the James Bond villain reference and of course when RD kinda looked a lot like Meg from Disney's Hercules when she had that hairstyle and dress, and the plot twist at the end with Spike all I could ever say about that part was that Spike truly earned that crown!
The school was forced the upon the team by Hasbro but I honestly like the student 6. Yes the school arc is pretty weak in comparison to other seasons but they are still pretty solid characters. I especially love Yona and Gallus. Plus Smolder is a great mentor/ sister for spike kinda like Ember.
All the Spike is a “little brother” stuff came out of absolutely nowhere and made no sense. He’s always been treated like a good friend and never before has there ever been any hint that he felt slighted.
Scoot! Love ur vids! Can you please react to the great gatsby the musical songs? Especially the ones: better hold tight, only tea, roaring on and new money?
