Hilariously in the former and poignant in the latter and the episode excels in not going over people's heads while not dumbing down at the same time. There is a perfect balance of humour and pathos, both done brilliantly individually. Animation is colourful and elegant as ever and the music fits without problem throughout tonally and in placement. It was lovely seeing how the ponies got their marks and seeing them younger (Pinkie Pie sure had a cute look when younger), making for some character moments that makes one squeal with delight, like the entrance exam, Rarity being dragged over mountains by her horn, Fluttershy singing, Pinkie Pie's first party and seeing Twilight Sparkle so happy and innocent. That was another great thing about "The Cutie Mark Chronicles", it is just so adorable but doesn't go excessive with that (which it could easily have done). Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie are also interesting, so cute without being sappy (especially the latter). Rainbow Dash was my favourite and how she and the character interaction are written have a lot of emotional impact. All of them are treated with fairness and honesty, no bias or character distortion here. Achieving without any problem the difficult task of making all equally interesting and equally well developed rather than one or two being more so than the others and one neglected, doing that better than a lot of origin episodes for any show that focus on one character. As an origins episode it doesn't get much better, not just focusing on one member of the Mane 6 but all of them in a beautifully and always coherently structured story without being episodic. Not only is "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" a brilliant episode it is also quite a special one. Actually found it very interesting and touching, while also delivering on the entertainment value. Despite the title too, this is not Marked Crusaders-centric. Don't think from the title that it will be one of those episodes that is too cute with no depth, neither of those is the case here. One of the best episodes of the first season, one of the clear high-points of the season's less consistent second half and the best episode since another season and show high point "Sonic Rainboom". "The Cutie Mark Chronicles" sees the season, and 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic' even, on brilliant form again. Of the previous 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic' Season 1 episodes, the only one to do little for me (the only below average one) was "Over a Barrel", which actually started off well but fell apart badly quite quickly and that was a real shame. In some cases, the nature of the item means that it is non-returnable, for example, due to hygiene/health and personal care/wellness/consumable nature of the product.Most of the previous Season 1 episodes, of one of recent years' best and most addictive animated shows, to me are pretty good to brilliant, with a few average but still watchable disapppointments along the way.
