** For those who felt the Nightmare Forces from the comics devalued Luna's being TheAtoner, this episode qualifies, given the Tantabus is the literal embodiment of her guilt.
** Also, fans have long wanted to see the GodEmperor princesses cut loose, but anytime something that would require the level of power we expect from those who control the sun and moon -- and hear of them having used in the distant past -- shows up, they end up suffering TheWorfEffect, or never acting beyond exposition duty at all. ''Not today,'' as we truly get to see Luna take action, showing herself quite powerful though not without limits. One sequence was much like fans have discussed wishing had happened at times like "A Canterlot Wedding"; a role that lets the Princesses not seem so useless by holding down the fort in one way while still needing the Mane Six. In this case, Luna's mindlinking ''the entire city,'' which limits, but ''doesn't'' fully eliminate, her ability to act directly.
** It could also be seen as this for the fans who disliked "Luna Eclipsed" for allowing Luna to let her past define her, instead of leaving it behind, in order to gain friends.
