I'd have to agree about the villain. I can live with the fact that he looks like a bad OC, but he sort of pops out of nowhere without any backstory, and they failed to build on it throughout the entire hour long episode. "Lol, this is King Sombara, he ruled the crystal empire for a bit, it was bad."

I don't know why they made the Crystal Heart look exactly like Cadence's cutie mark either, and I have a feeling I'll never know.

Where did you hear Discord is coming back? That sounds like one of the worst ideas I've ever heard (I guess I don't watch cartoons enough.)
