Honestly i loved watching this episode, the lore on Equestria. Through it has been a while since i rewatched it. It might because of nostalgia i never minded this episode at all.

The task of raising the moon and sun took ten Twilight level unicorns.

oh no, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy this one very much! As far as I know, it's generally very liked lol. Also, the character Twilight plays "Clover the Clever" mentions her mentor "Starswirl the bearded", which is the wizard from pony history that Twilight dressed up as in the Halloween episode

This is one of my least favorite episodes. But a lot of that is that I just don't like it when cartoons have the main characters play other characters to tell a different story. I'd rather have seen the actual characters from that time.

When Spike first starts narrating, he specifically says this is before the time of Celestia and Luna. So yeah, it was 100% up to the unicorns to make it happen.

6:32 they are *now*, spike at the beginning of the play: long before the rule of celestia...

I personally liked the episode, so does the fandom generally. I get that if you don't like seeing characters arguing over petty things it can be hard to watch but it served it's purpose in the episode in the end.

We learn a lot u just can't see it: - Before Celestia and Luna ponies was divided. (That was never said in the show but in G5 - they come from other land where Alicorns are born) - Starswirl the bearded (Twilight Halloween costume) was living in that times. - Equestria wasn't their first home but a new one made by all of them. - Friendship and Harmony aren't just pep talk - they really need them bc there are creature that feed on hatred and divisions. - Luna and Celestia took burned of rising sun and moon from unicorns. - Windigos are real

The MLP versions are Windigos, similar to Wendigos from Native American mythology, though obviously the writers tried to make them their own distinct monster. Slightly more kid friendly, just as fatal but without Donner party vibes.

I’m surprised you disliked this one so much! I know Mosco really liked it, and generally it’s a beloved episode in the fandom. I feel like the squabbling made sense considering the episode was all about the conflict between the three tribes. Also pretty realistic, for leaders lol. Of course mainly this episode was favored for the lore drops! Until now, we didn’t really have any glimpse into past equestria. Now we know the pony races used to be factions, and that Equestria was founded before Celestia and Luna’s time. I do think it’s weird that the ‘founding’ flag still depicts Celestia and Luna though, lol. I think that’s just an oversight. They should’ve made an ‘Early Equestria’ flag design for this ep. Also, yeah, it’s revealed in this episode that Celestia and Luna aren’t actually needed to raise the sun and moon! Alicorns are just extra-powerful, so a single Alicorn is enough to do it. But before their time, it would take a whole group of unicorns to perform a spell together to raise the sun. So you could say Celestia and Luna “took that burden away”, so to speak. Also, this episode reveals a sort of magic for the Earth ponies, which I think is neat. Until this episode people assumed Earth Ponies were the race without any special abilities; basically just normal horses. But this episode revealed that they have a special ability to tend the land, seen when Applejack is holding that sprout and it grows really quick! Also, do you remember the Halloween episode, where Twilight was dressed as Starswirl the bearded? In this episode, Twilight plays Clover the Clever, who says that Starswirl is her mentor! I just think it’s neat to get a sense of the timeline. Oh, and the wendigos are awesome. Do not forget them!
