Official My Little Pony topic

I liked the idea of Rarity's generosity reversing Spike's greed. I was pretty satisfied with the episode, all in all.

Also, anyone in here read Hiatus?

More like Spike's generosity reversed his own greed. The more Rarity I see the less I understand how she got assigned the element of generosity. But it's a kids show. It doesn't have to make sense.Episode was overall okay. The best part was easily Applejack's 'get my rope' line.

 

If you haven't noticed, all the main six display aspects that completely go against their element at times. I like it, it gives the characters more depth so they can't just be summed up in one word. Sure, Rarity coerced Spike to give her that gem, but she also gives clothes to her friends... well, just twice. But still.
I'm not opposed to characters going against their element (it's the only thing so far that made me interested in Pinkie Pie), but for Rarity it seems to go beyond that into being her entire personality (at least in this season). But your point still rings true, I'll admit. If these characters were the perfect embodiments of their elements they wouldn't be very fun to watch, would they?

I don't ever recall any instance where Twilight hasn't represented Magic, Pinkie Pie hasn't represented Laughter, Rainbow Dash hasn't represented Loyalty, or when Fluttershy hasn't represented Kindness. The only ones I can see going against their Elements are Rarity (that usually only comes with very rare gems) and Applejack (see The Show Stoppers. And I guess that one doesn't really count, because she didn't say anything to the CMC), and that's not counting Discord's corruption, of course.

Twilight - Her misuse of magic in 2.03, I think, goes against what magic is supposed to stand for judging by Celestia's angry glare when she arrived on scene.Pinkie - See 'Party of One'Fluttershy - See 'Best Night Ever'Rainbow Dash - See 'Griffon the Brush Off.' It takes a while for her to find her loyalty towards Pinkie.Applejack - See 'Applebuck Season.' Part of honesty is being honest with yourself.But with Rarity it goes beyond a small one time event and is a pretty large part of her personality. Edited by Vorahk1Panrahk2

I noticed there was a lot of pony stuff going on here...thought it was a fad. After a while, I decided to find out what's up with this, with good old Google. Decided I might as well see this thing myself. Love it. Though definitely not as much as Harry Potter.I guess I can't be a brony, 'cause I'm a girl, are there any puns for teenaged girls who like this?Also, this is a ridiculously large amount of pages...=)

Welcome to the herd and yes we do have a title for girls who like the show. They're called a Pegasisters, but some consider Brony to include all genders.

Twilight - Her misuse of magic in 2.01, I think, goes against what magic is supposed to stand for judging by Celestia's angry glare when she arrived on scene.Pinkie - See 'Party of One'Fluttershy - See 'Best Night Ever'Rainbow Dash - See 'Griffon the Brush Off.'

Thanks for not making me write that out.I would also point to Twilight's obsessive use of logic, which can kind of take the magic out of things - most notable in Feeling Pinkie Keen.

Yes, welcome to the string, pegasis. :)As for Spike, he's a cool enough character. Particularly in the episodes that focus on him, like when he was competing against Owlicious.

Does anybody here dislike Spike? I've never understood why he's in the series, and he just seems like a bad character to me.And the fact that he's three years old and some sort of servant is really weird. It's like they're promoting child labor or something. hehe.png

I've always felt like he was sort of the "voice of reason" whenever one of the ponies goes loopy. (Which is essentially every episode.) Plus, some librarians do have assistants, so I guess that's sort of normal-ish.And dragons do age differently. Apparently.But yeah, I see where you're coming from. I don't dislike him, but he's not a favorite of mine either. There's really no great quality about his character.

USPS has nothing on Spike. XDAnyway, I liked the new episode. I knew he was going to shrink back down, but I really, really wanted to see Spike stay an adult. =/ Ah well. And Rarity cannot feel any romantic intentions with Spike! D= Remember FancyPants, Rarity! FancyPants! XPAlso, finally got my other brother, Akano, to watch My Little Pony. He's starting from the beginning and watched the first three episodes. It is only a matter of time. XP

Oh wow, I'd pick Art of the Dress or Becoming Popular, if only because they were Rarity songs. (and she has such a great singing voice.) Probably the former though. I'm not exactly sure what I should write though.

So... Who thinks were gonna get more of the SpikexRarity shipping in later episodes?

I doubt we'll get anything too extreme... he is still just a baby. But it'd be cute if they started doing more together. In any case their relationship should be a little less one-sided now.

I got to much on my hands to do this, but At the Gala, and Art of the dress.Because:-Rarity's singinng was in both of them (Dang I love that voice!)-The gala was another song to showcase every main pony, loved RD's solo, but everytime Fulltershy sings...reminds me of Madeline...- Idk why spike doesn't singSo yea.

I've waited since I saw the first episode for this!

I, representative of the BZP staff, can't keep people from mentioning it since it does not break any rules. I'm also not going to go all George Orwell over the use of the word "Cupcakes", because that's just silly.You just can't, obviously, discuss it at length in this topic.

Ok, here I go, I'm gonna get it over with. I'm reading Cupcakes today, please try to talk me out of it. :P

Eat cupcakes while you do it. It makes it so much better.If it won an Emmy, that'd be epic.
I hope it never does :wired: Holy skyrim theme!? Awesome /)^3^( <I love that face

this topic is getting more pages of posts than the ones that deserve them.no, i don't hate my little pony. i'm a brony. just saying that this is soaking up poeple's time on things that need it.

What needs it more? Really, I love reading this topic after browsing the rest of BZP. It provides a nice contrast to the people still butthurt over BIONICLE ending, or the cynics who'll criticize anything that takes its place. Here you have people just talking about something that genuinely makes them happy.
