Rarity takes Manehattan review

First post of the year! yay!
But there's no time for chit-chat, we must review.
-Summary-
Manehattan

Rarity is going to Manehattan for a fashion show, and her friends go with her to cheer for her. As a "thank you" gift she gets tickets for a musical.
In Manehattan she sings a song about generosity. She loses track of time and drives to the show rehersal as fast as she can with the help of her friends and other ponies whom she helped out. 
She meets Suri Polomare, a mare who stole her awesome new fabric. Well not stole, she asked for the fabric and Rarity gave it to her...

Anyway, when Rarity understands that her designs won't be original she decides that she'll make a new fashion line. And then she kinda exploits her friends and they miss the musical they were all looking forward too.


Rarity storms out, and the ponies are feeling sorry for her, so the stay up all night and sew. Next morning she collects the clothes and rushes to the show, which turns out to be a huge success.
Only then she understands what she done. Rarity thinks that her friends went back home, but they didn't- they overslept.
Suri lies to make it seem that Rarity lost, but she doesn't care, everything's great as long as her friends are there!
My new fave pony. Sorry Sweetie Belle!
Suri's assistant, Coco Pommel, comes at tells them that Rarity won and gives her a gift- magical, mysterious spool of rainbow-colored thread, which glows in a strange way...
-Music-
Loved the song, it was so catchy! And I loved that we say that Rarity IS generous. It's obvious that Fluttershy is kind, we saw Dash be loyal, but Rarity didn't get a chance to prove herself since season 1!
-Personal Opinion-
I think that this is the episode that saved the season for me. Honestly all the past episodes were kinda... "meh"... But this! Maybe it's my love for Rarity or for fashion, but I seriously think that this was magnificent.
Cool stuff in the episode:
- Rarity is a Unicorn, Twi is an ALICORN, can't they carry the bags? No, let's make the BABY DRAGON carry them!

- Grumpy Cat pony. End of discussion.

- Probably one of the coolest things in this episode was the variety of pony designs. Coco Pommel looks rad, and don't make me start on Prim Hemline!

- Another thing- even though we didn't get to see most of the line, but I adore the way the creators came up with all these awesome dresses and costumes! Every time the episode has something to do with Rarity or fashion, you can be sure that the details will be amazing!
- I don't know how rich Rarity has to be if she leaves and ENTIRE DIAMOND as a tip...


- That spool of thread looked really suspicious, I wonder if we'll see it again sometime. 


- Doesn't this look familiar?

Maybe she's the next alicorn...?

-Overview-
LOVED the episode. 10 out of 10
Have a good night\day!
