"Sonic Rainboom" review:
The episode opens up with Rainbow Dash trying to tell Fluttershy to be more assertive. She keeps trying even taking in a breath but still says it in her feeble little voice. This opens the theme.
The episode opens back up with Rainbow Dash practicing the "Sonic Rainboom" by doing 3 phases. The way it works is she has to gain enough speed to break the sound barrier and this creates a rainbow. Hence the name "Sonic Rainboom". She doesn't get enough speed and is thrown back by the force and drops in on the others.... literally. Fluttershy stop being less assertive. Rainbow Dash is mad at her for not being assertive.
The best young flyer competition is why she's practicing. Its a competition where all the pegasi compete to see who can impress the wonderbolts. Pinkie Pie tells us this. Rainbow Dash wishes they could be there. And Pinkie Pie tells her of the Rainboom. They even tell her that Rainbow Dash did it as a filly. She says she can do it even in her sleep.
They go to prepare even Fluttershy who needs to be more assertive. Rarity asks Twilight Sparkle to find a spell that will let them go to Cloudsdale since they have no wings. Uh..... Pinkie Pie how'd you find that so fast? Oh it hit you in the face when Rainbow Dash fell in. She casts it but it only lasts for 3 days. She casts it on Rarity. It works.
Meanwhile Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy arrive in Cloudsdale only to have Rainbow Dash be picked on bullies from when she was a filly. They call her "Rainbow Crash" and say she can't do the "Sonic Rainboom" and Fluttershy tells them otherwise and tells them to wait till the best young flyer competition. Rainbow Dash sure looks nervous and Fluttershy makes her even more nervous when she says she'll be doing it in front of everyone and princess Celestia.
Fluttershy sees something and says "Rare" and Rainbow Dash says "Yeah its rare" but Fluttershy says "Rarity" and Rainbow Dash turns around and sees Rarity.... flying? Is she an alicorn now? Nah its just the spell Twilight Sparkle used to give her wings. She also cast a spell to where they can walk on clouds.
They came to cheer her on. This eases her anxiety a bit. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash decide to take them on a tour of Cloudsdale since its still a little early. They come to the entrance. Rarity is admiring her wings during this. So does everyone else and Twilight Sparkle warns her to be careful since they are very delicate but Rarity brushes it off.
Applejack wants to see how clouds are made in Cloudsdale and they take them there. First the snow room where they make snowflakes. Rarity ruins this by flapping her wings. Next is the rainbow making room. Pinkie Pie tastes the liquid and she says its spicy. I guess it has to be since it is very powerful. I never even knew rainbows had a taste. Rainbow Dash points out that rainbows aren't known for their flavor. Yeah they come after the rain so it makes sense.
The bullies are back and they say Rarity's wings are better than Rainbow Dash's. This makes Rainbow Dash more nervous. Next up is the cloud making machine. Well this makes sense. water does evaporate into the air. The workers are admiring Rarity's wings which again she starts showing off. They insist on her entering the young flyer competition.
Rainbow Dash is more nervous than ever now because of her.
The competition is underway and Rainbow Dash is nervous especially now that Celestia is there. Along with the wonderbolts being the judges. Rainbow Dash is so nervous she starts switching numbers so she doesn't have to compete just yet. Even Derpy Hooves. The last 2 are Rarity and Rainbow Dash.
As Rainbow Dash starts her phases for the "Sonic Rainboom" Rarity showing off keeps screwing it up. Eventually Rarity goes up above the clouds near the sun which Twilight Sparkle said to be careful and her wings disintegrate from the extreme heat. The wonderbolts try to save her but are knocked out with her flailing about.
Rainbow Dash to the rescue. She flies so fast to rescue them she pulls off the "Sonic Rainboom" and rescues them. And Fluttershy is finally being assertive. Rarity apologizes to Rainbow Dash and thanks her.
Celestia comes in and congratulates Rainbow Dash even the wonderbolts and she wins the young flyer competition. This time Rarity learns a lesson.
This week's lesson (Rarity in person): Don't be a show off and just be what your supposed to be and be there for your friends. The bullies apologize and congratulate her to end the episode as she leaves to be with the wonderbolts.
Good Points:
-Rainbow Dash was awesome in this episode.
-Seeing Cloudsdale for the first time was great.
-"Sonic Rainboom" need I say more?
-Rainbow Dash winning the young flyers competition was awesome.
Bad Point:
-Rarity showing off. Just wow.
Above all not a bad episode. 9.9/10. Next up is the "Stare Master" review.
