Verve’s Top 100 Friendship is Magic List - #55-#51
Verve’s Top 100 Friendship is Magic List - #60-#56
(Song Used: The Way - Fastball)
By the end of this part we will have reached the halfway point of this list! The first 56 episodes will have been covered with another 56 to go. We’re finally rising up the ranks where we’ll be getting close to the really good stuff
(BTW I am aware that Season 6 is starting sooner then we thought. When we get to the week of the 21st of March. There will be two parts going up on the Monday (#30-#26, #25-#21), Tuesday (#20-#16, #15-11), and Thursday (#10-#6, #5-#1). So that the countdown ends only a few days before Season 6 begins)

(Song Used: Blow Me Away - Breaking Benjamin)
We’re one quarter into the 100 now (And 1/3rd into the entire series. 21 Parts, this is the 7th one). In this grouping is our first appearance from a two-parter and mostly Season 1 Episodes
Verve’s Top 100 Friendship is Magic List - #80-#76
(Song Used: Unkind - Hurt)
This is the point where Season 6 would have to be near perfect in every way for any of these episodes to be under threat of going under 100. But every season has their ups and downs and it’s pretty much assured there will be a few duds here and there. Now it would be cool if Season 6 was utterly perfect in every way as that’d mean we have awesome stuff every new episode then. But each season except for Season 3 was 26 episodes, that’s a lot of work on the writing staff and for every really good idea they manage to pull off they can sometimes rush and/or become a bit lackadaisical about some others. But anyway, this is also the point in the Countdown where the episodes are starting to get to that point where there’s a lot of episodes around the same level. I’d say from this point until #55-#51 is the part where you could probably switch it all around in any order and I’d be fine. Every episode of FiM even the best ones have some flaws and/or things you could nitpick to death. So while I can try to say which ones are better or worse there is a point where it’s hard because some episodes are at about the same quality that is really up the “Which would you rather watch” preference. And even that’s not clear because there may be an episode from this part that I may want to sometimes watch again even over episodes that are ranked in the 50’s cause of something in particular.

A little further now, though these episodes are still very in trouble of being out of the 100 when Season 6 is over. Cause it only takes nearly half of the Season to knock these episodes out. And every season has had it’s fair share of good episodes that’s it’s likely that most of these will also fall out.

(Song used: Fire It Up - Thousand Foot Krutch.
Forgot to put this in the last one but in case you didn’t know the song for the Bottom 12 one, it’s Untitled by Simple Plan)
Now we’ve reached the beginning of the Top 100 after getting the 12 who were unfortunate enough to not even make this list. Though with Season 6 not too far from coming. The episodes from #100-#90 will really have to hope Season 6 completely fails in order for these episodes to stay within the Top 100. Because all it takes is a few good episodes in the next season to knock these episodes out of the 100 as well. These are the episodes that weren’t bad enough to not make the list in a 112 episode list but also weren’t good enough to get very far beyond that. That 112 Episode list will become 137 (An additional 24 [Assuming the opener and finale are Two-parters again] episodes + Equestria Girls 4) by the end of this year that’s nearly 1 ½ of full seasons that can’t even reach #100. So Spot #100 is only going to get harder for some episodes to squeak by and get. When we get to #75 and above, for the most part those episodes can rest easy as Season 6 would have to be an absolute perfect Season for those to even come close to being put down to anywhere near #100. But the episodes in this set of 5 as well as the next are near guarantees to fall out unless once again Season 6 proves to be a horrible season. Which I see no signs of which yet (No, Flurry Heart being an Alicorn is not one of them. Nice try :P) Without further adieu, let’s begin the Top 100!
