This episode defies description. It should simply fall flat on its face...but it doesn't. It seems to recognize how stupid and silly the whole idea is and, rather than try to make something serious, just runs on whatever the production team thought was amusing at that moment in time. While a couple of the fandom references were glaring (most especially the Twicane's unwelcome return), the sheer amount of jokes, characters, and action bouncing around means the episode is never dull or lacking for content. Throw in a few new ideas for the show, like Bon Bon being a secret agent, Gummy's existentialism, and Celestia and Luna bickering like sisters, and you have something terribly amusing.
This isn't going to go down as one of the best episodes, but it was still a fun way to celebrate one hundred episodes of this iteration of pony. Hasbro, DHX, congratulations on reaching a milestone few animated shows have.
