Not loving that the setup for the grand finale is just a United Underground "the Joker, Catwoman and Penguin are all working together" thing. The resolution to this episode was just blah at this point. The Tree of Harmony went down way too easy and then it was only a crisis for a few minutes before friendship bomb solved it. I guess that's why I liked the S5 two-parters the most; they're the only ones that didn't rely on a magical Super Saiyan Twilight friendship bomb or magic MacGuffin resolution...

They at least acknowledged that the "Twilight taking the throne" outcome was cliche... but I'm guessing they might not have a choice in that being the ultimate ending.

Discord was awful and exhausting in this episode.
