My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1/E07 Dragon Shy: Difference between revisions

 

----

 

* [[All Animals Are Dogs]]: The dragon whimpers like a puppy after Fluttershy stands up to it. No wonder; it certainly seems like the natural reaction in the circumstances.

** Of course, then Fluttershy has her turn at Scolding A Dragon...and it ''works''.

*** Fluttershy even Defied the trope by pointing out that just because the dragon could kill the Mane Six doesn't give him the right to, and that he could have handled being kicked by Dash (which barely annoyed him) better.

* [[Continuity Nod]]: Fluttershy's face-off with the Manticore in the second episode is mentioned. It's one of the only nods to the pilot episodes given, at least in Season 1.

* [[Don't Look Down]]: Spoken unwisely to Fluttershy as she's jumping over a chasm, although since she's not using her wings one would think she was surely going to fail the leap anyway if she did now. {{spoiler|Fortunately, the distance between the cliffs, which had hitherto never been shown both at the same time, is then revealed to be short enough that she just ends up balanced with back and front hooves on different sides.}}
