**Blazing Scarlet and Cybernetic Violet** (Japanese: **ブレイジング・スカーレット サイバネティック・バイオレット**) is a special episode that serves as a follow up to the *Blazing Scarlet and Cybernetic Violet* Saga.

## Synopsis

*Welcome back to the world of the Multiverse! Like always, magical adventures and great friendships await us!*

*Something's recently gone wrong: all the magic and colors within the Multiverse (especially Paldea) are gone, and it's throwing the annual Friendship Festival into a tailspin! Can Rella work together with Princesses Nina Starscout, Lily Fuller, Cherry Yolanda and Elfreda Thornbush to figure out what's going on before it's too late?*

## Plot

*This is the short version of the summary. For the full version, see here.*

Months after magic has returned to Equestria, Sunny Starscout and her new pony friends are excited to celebrate their new lives on Maretime Bay Day. While their group may have adjusted to magic's return, plenty of unicorns and pegasi are still having trouble mastering their powers, frustrating the non-magical earth ponies who wish to return to how things were before.

The division between pony tribes worries Zipp, who notices that the Unity Crystals have begun glitching, disrupting magic for everyone. Zipp begins investigating, discovering the glitches seem to be happening more, their chaos further dividing the ponies of Maretime Bay. She tries to convince her friends that the Unity Crystals are acting unusual, but they think she is worrying over nothing and do not believe her.

They witness a pegasus falling out of the sky onto an earth pony themselves, and this spurs outrage from the Earth Ponies, who threaten to boycott Maretime Bay Day if the town is not made a magic-free zone. Now on her side, Zipp explains to her friends her discovery that magic is glitching when ponies are not treating each other with kindness. Their mission now is to throw such an amazing Bay Day that everypony comes together in harmony to stabilize magic again.

But as the Earth Ponies air their frustrations with the inclusion of pegasi and unicorns in a holiday they see as their own, the glitches escalate, bringing about a massive magical storm that threatens to swallow the town. In the end, it is only the power of Nina and her friends working together that saves the day.

As magic stabilizes, the earth ponies discover they now too have magical abilities, specifically those controlled by their hooves. Feeling included and having seen the error of their ways, they apologize and come together with the other creatures in harmony to celebrate the rest of Friendship Festival together.
