AW’s thoughts on “It Ain't Easy Being Breezies”




            Hello this AW also known as AlienWarhead and I’d like to share my thoughts and analysis on “It Ain't Easy Being Breezies”. This episode was alright, it had some good jokes like Rarity’s shiny fashion, and I liked the breezies, but I thought the episode overhyped the cuteness of the breezies. I thought they were cute, but not as cute as everyone in the episode said they were because I thought parts of their design were weird like their long legs. Other parts of their design were cute like their simlish or Celtic like voices even though the cuteness of their voices made Sea Breeze sound female despite being called male. The most interesting part of the episode for me was the key/element of kindness lesson.

            It seemed that Fluttershy got her key this episode and had her lesson on her element like Rarity in “Rarity takes Manehatten”. Fluttershy has being overly kind to the Breezies and her kindness was hurting them because the Breezies were getting use to Fluttershy’s kindness instead of going to the safety of their home. Later when Fluttershy had to be mean to the bees to stop them from hurting Sea Breeze the episode showed that sometimes you have to mean to someone for their own good and too much kindness can hurt someone. This lesson seems backwards for the element of kindness, but I feel this is a realistic lesson about kindness like the lesson from “Rarity Takes Manehatten” that states that people will take advantage of your generosity, but don’t let that stop you. You could also argue that Fluttershy being mean to the Breezies was kinder than being overly nice to the Breezies because the Breezies needed to go home before the portal closed and it was hard for Fluttershy to do the right thing by telling the Breezies to leave. It seems like the episode is favoring being mean over being nice, but the episode shows being mean doesn’t always work by showing the Breezies not listening to the overly mean Sea Breeze. I really liked this lesson, the rest of this episode was fine, and I thought the ending were the Mane 6 turned into breezies was surprising, but I didn’t hate it.


            I hope the next key episode will have a lesson as good as this one and I’m guessing it will be AppleJack because I think Twilight’s key will last. I haven’t posted an article in a while because I lost interest in analysis and I’m not sure if it’s completely back and if I’ll keep doing this. Thanks for reading this and one more thing, the show had a big Doctor Who reference for no reason in the form of Doctor Whooves wearing 3D glasses and hanging out with Roseluck. This is a reference to the Tenth Doctor episode “Doomday” were he worth 3D glasses for part of the episode and Roseluck in this instant is probably a reference to one of the Doctor’s companions Rose Tyler.
