Text Review Roundup: "To Change a Changeling"

Off we go again! I'm pleased to say that The Southern Nerd is back this week, so we have a decent complement of reviewers on board. Join me below as we discover whether Cuddlepug will give us an actual review, Derpy News will surprise us by disliking an episode or Alexander Thrond will surprise us by liking an episode...

ArthurCrane – positive ("the bond between Thorax and Pharynx is a well-balanced, endearing depiction")

Batbrony Reviews – extremely positive ("yet again another amazing addition to an already amazing season")

Cuddlepug – probably negative (graded C-, but there isn't much actual complaining in the review!)

Derpy News – very positive (graded A-; "a very good episode thanks to the humor and the [character] dynamics")

Louder Yay – positive (three stars; "Starlight and Trixie ... make an amazing double act ... more good than bad" but mildly iffy about the message on bullying)

TheDragonWarlock – fairly positive (graded B; "good characterization ... jokes are pretty good [but has] character issues, particularly with Trixie, and ... feels too similar to The Times They are a Changeling.")

The Southern Nerd – positive ("interesting because of the mistakes Starlight made")

Thrond Media Pony Corner – mixed (rated 53%; "saved by its good dialogue and solid comedic timing, because what's here story-wise mostly falls apart under any scrutiny")
