the book twilight has was a fake tho to look like it too hide some objects inside, durr :D !! |
| Mattatatta #512600 10 months ago |
^It was Discord's magic that made the book hollow. Either that or he secretly loves destroying literature to create hiding places...
Either way, my mind is full of explosions |
| Karazor #512601 10 months ago |
Unless Discord stuck a dimensional pocket or something in there. |

Is the point that the cover unicorn is mirrored?
Eh, don't know. Error? Fanon explanation: that's the back cover; she's holding the book upside down. |

@Anon610: The point is, rather than "back where you began" referring in a somewhat lame way to Ponyville (as is the in-universe explanation), it refers to the very first shot of the very first episode of the series.
I feel pretty stupid for not getting it before, but yeah. Mind blown. |

Fanon explanation: You enter the book at the beginning, that book contains the portal to Leave Equestria, therefore it is backwords. |

HEADCANNON: The book itself is magical and alive.
It knew to tell Twilight about "The Mare In The Moon", setting her off on her journey, and it also hid the Elements of Harmony inside of itself to help them. The book's pages change by themselves to help them by any means nessessary, so perhaps a completely different story or item will be found next time Twilight opens it. |

Jesus, it's just a animation error they didn't pay attention to. |

Good find. |

But the one on the right:
1. Has turquoise gems on the corners 2. Has the horse head in the opposite direction. D: |

Now THIS is meta as all hell. Nice of you to notice! |

Fanon flips over animation inconsistency. More at 11. |

really... people are blown away by this? I thought it was kinda fucking obvious... |
| Anonymous #512715 10 months ago |
It could be either:
A disqorded version of the book. An animation error A binding mistake by the book publisher A different edition of the book The list is endless.... |

I noticed this when I first watched the episode. |
| Saufsoldat #514243 10 months ago |
I thought this was kind of obvious what with the book's unique look and all. |

#512624 People didn't get that? How'd have the riddle made sense otherwise? *headscratch* Sorry guys, if this counts as mind blowing then you need a less combustible mind. |
| Anonymous #514643 10 months ago |
Oh Discord, you so meta. |
| Anonymous #514651 10 months ago |
@Vree
Thing is, the riddle only made sense in a meta context, and nothing in this show has been shown to be like that. It's just an awesome coincidence due to the animators reusing old assets (and frankly makes the riddle even better). Only taking the two-parter into consideration, the riddle felt weak/lame. Twilight called Discord correctly on that. |

I was not expecting the answer to the riddle to break the 4th wall. =p
I was expecting it to be in the room (like on the ceiling or in a corner where no one was looking). Or in that old castle where the elements were created. |
