Apparently, Princess Luna is popular.

@retl you have no idea

@abigpony I hadn't even the vaguest idea. :B She was the star character of my least favorite FiM episode so far, so I never really thought much of her. But she has neat colors, and people want her, so she's the pony who I will pay to have drawn.

@retl You didn't like Luna Eclipsed? pfft. Whatever.

@abigpony Not one bit. Either Luna's recall and experience was significantly warped by her time in the moon (that she had to ask what IS fun), or times in pre-NMM Equestria were tough (Think about what kind of activities must have been commonplace for a swarm of spiders to be considered entertainment.) Pinkie was shown to exceptional obnoxious levels beyond anything Season 1 pushed prior, and Luna stole Trixie's fanfare. It also doesn't help that I've never been fond of RL Halloween, so having a parallel in the ponyverse with Nightmare Night isn't any better. All of this following on the tail of Lesson Zero (which was an awesome starter) and the Discord episodes (which used a different intro, and had a multi-week gap between it and Lesson Zero, making it feel more like a end-of-Season-one bonus than a start-of-Season-2) made for a terrible impression on me. Then again, we got to see Zecora again, and Pipsqueak came into existence. Which was nice.

@retl Well I think the "Fun" thing and "spiders as entertainment" thing were for comedic and plot effect more than anything else, but also used to stress the fact that she is behind the times. I loved Pinkie in that episode more than pretty much every other episode not only as a character, but also as a plot device. I don't really see how Luna stole Trixie's fanfare, especially since she's kind of a princess and it kind of IS HER holiday they're celebrating. I also disagree on opinions on Lesson Zero and stuff, but that's neither here nor there. If you want to watch it in synchtube or something, I'm probably gonna rewatch it now again as well.

@abigpony By fanfare, I meant this tune. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHQHPAdOdtU

@retl It's just a fanfare sound bit. It's not HERS.

@abigpony But that was on broadcast day. Maybe I'll like it more if I try watching it now. I'll load it up momentarily.
