I finally caved and started watching this. I'm about 3 episodes in. I'm starting to see why it's popular it is awesome and hilarious and Spike is adorable.

As for everyone having a favorite pony... sign me up on Team Applejack.

Episode 7 now. Episode 6 renewed my interest.

Since there's always bias my favourite pony is Twilight, use to be Fluttershy but...I thought otherwise. My view probably might change due to character development and further episodes.

WHAT A STORY TWIST, MAAAN
awp
Good episode, but the problem, as you say, is that the "twists" are always way too predictable

damn you, kids show
Quaraezha
True, but the previous twist with Muddy Rarity was really unexpected for most fans.
If they didn't notice the eyes, at least.

Oh and I found this adorable fanart:

Yeah that was the only thing that tipped me off, and I didn't notice until halfway through the contest. That one was kind of clever.

They also sort of had her horn there. But the fact a western cartoon kept something like that for that long of a time was a little off putting. Things like that are usually 2 minutes tops.

I wish I had the power to not watch a few episodes of something and then forget it forever because I can't make time to watch it.
NotShinta
I figured out the muddy Rarity 'twist' because it wouldn't make sense for them to show the sequence otherwise, rather than eye colour. I never notice eyes, aren't I so cool and hipster

However, the last episode bugged me far more than it should've. Maybe Rainbow's arrogance combined with popularity produced too much of an emotional response in me, or the moral's poor delivery, or the predictable twist was too silly (the others coming up with an elaborate plan that could potentially damage Dash's self esteem before actually talking to her about their concerns. What?), or something. I think too hard about a kid's show. It just generally could've been done better.

Also, Quara, source? The artist seems quite good, despite my usual avoidance of fanart.

Okay so I was derping around and decided to draw Humanized Twilight Sparkle.
Been a long time since I last draw something so I'm really rusty.

I finally got around to watching it and I thought it was fairly good. I felt like it came to an end too quickly though, like there was more that they could have explored. In fact, it feels like this could have been a two parter if they fleshed out the story a bit more. Otherwise it was a good episode, just condensed.
Quaraezha
Meanwhile, UnanimousDelivers uploaded a new video!

awp
For a Rarity episode, that one was very good

Tried making a Twilight Sparkle last night. Kinda fucked the proportions on it so the colour of the drink more closely matched Rarity's hair than the purple intended for Twilight. It was delicious, but cost 15 dollars to make so I doubt it'll be a regular thing. 15 dollars is way too much for a litre of 10% alcohol

(It was delicious though)

Probably a bad place to start, actually, considering each of the characters were acting out a story that isn't particularly FiM-y. Still not a bad episode, anyway. Certainly better than that other Merriwether episode
awp
Eh, that episode was okay, but in the weaker half of season 2 imo.
hoihoisoi
Darn, now I'm browsing youtube for my little Pony episodes already.......
awp
Start with Season 2, episodes 1 and 2 for a taste of what the show's like if you want to get right into the good stuff. If you have the patience and the manhood for it though, I'd just start from the first episode (of season 1) and go from there, with the promise that it picks up at around episode 4.

Starting with Season 1 episode 1, currently at episode 2. Seriously, didn't expect it to be not as half bad as what I'm seeing.

My first experience with MLP:FiM was magical (excluding that initial "what is this about" on youtube)

I drove for about 8 hours to hang out with Cheese, Mogsy and Remmy in a cheap (but quite nice) motel in some little town in Vermont where we watched the first five episodes over a few beers.

It was episode 4 that really solidified my suspicion that it was a show worth watching. "Holy shit, the redneck pony is on like a two-week bender"

thanks to symbolism I'd argue that's completely SFW

however it still manages to be extremely disturbing.

I'm not a fan of Fluttershy, but I do admit that when she has her moments, she really shines.
NotShinta
If I were to compare them, Fluttershy would be my favourite, but it's very possible, likely even, that I'm subconsciously projecting my own, shyness-filled life onto her. I don't think that she's the cutest thing ever, or that she's far ahead of any other character, though.

I never understood why people liked shy girls. Somebody who is strong and is flexible in social situations instead of panicky is clearly someone more likely to be successful in life. Honestly, what's cute about somebody having a panic attack and breaking down? That's borderline sadistic.
Maybe it's just that you guys can't score not-shy girls or something...
And there are usually less shy girls that are actually cute IRL. The few that I have met are usually clueless about absolutely everything for some reason.

Not sure where the boundary between shy and weak is.

But I'm with you there. It sounds too high-maintenance/high-effort for my tastes.
silmarilen
im shy myself, guess thats why i like shy girls

not in anime/cartoons tho.

i dont think shy and panicky are the same tho. someone who is shy would just stay quiet and try to avoid social contact and when it cant be avoided try to act normal, not go panick and hyperventilate or something.
Topic Starter
Pokebis
But still, what is appealing about someone who would rather avoid you? And those shy ones that like you and act all fidgety, asking you random questions and apologizing for everything and then "squee'ing" when they feel embarrassed. I'm almost positive they think guys like that and I'm blaming you guys for making them think that because it annoys the hell out of me.
hoihoisoi
Well, the general idea is that shy girls are cute,but there is a limit to how shy a girl can be until it starts to get out of hand. Apologizing way often and fidgeting and stuff like that is kinda over the limit already. in any case, I think that shy fetish of mine only appear in cartoons and anime. If a girl were to be as shy as fluttershy I'd honestly don't know what to say to her in any given time, you know might hurt her feelings and stuff. But being shy in moderate, is somewhat okay. Something as in shy to do stuff she has never tried before, I mean I find girls who have a fear of roller coasters or shy to cosplay in public kinda cute, you know as in shy to do something daring. But not shy to the point where she can't even say hi to your friends, that's kinda out of hand. But probably it's just the general idea so people say it but they don't actually mean it (Probably). Just a personal opinion here.
YellowerYoshi
Oh my dear lord, my friend drew this for me for Christmas and it is too freaking adorable. MUST SHARE WITH OTHER BRONIES.

NotShinta
I also don't think shy tendencies are 'cute', and they alone obviously aren't enough to decide who to go out with. Not all shy people do want to avoid you though, but rather could just be a bit too scared to say and do what they want; I can see why that would be annoying, but it obviously means that they need some help, and I think that can make them appeal to some guys. If they do get too self-indulged in it and play it up a bit that can be a problem though. I've been 'shy' for as long as I can remember and couldn't be less proud of it, I don't care what some girls might think.

Somewhat. I actually did enjoy some of the G1 stuff when I was young, never followed it extensively though. But I did find out about the FiM series about a month into it's run before it really took off. It's kinda weird going back and imagining the fandom back then without sites like Equestria Daily and such.

I like Apple family themed episodes, but we really need an Applejack focused episode. Applebuck Season was one of my favorites.

We need an Apple family themed episode that explains what the deal is with AJ's parents. I really want an explanation for how Apple Bloom went from not existing to living with her brother, sister, and grandma. Where the fuck are AJ's parents? Either they're dead and Apple Bloom is adopted, or they had a kid, dumped it on granny, and disappeared without a trace

Seriously
NotShinta
In an early concept, Big Mac and AJ apparently inherited the farm according to the Faust, implying their parents died somehow at some point. They probably wouldn't stick to this explanation were they to reveal any more backstory in the show, but still.

Studio B animated Episodes 1 and 2 (Discord Arc) of Season 2
While Episodes 3 to 26 were animated by Top Draw Animation

Episode 3 (Lesson Zero) was originally Season 2's Episode 1, but the staff decided to add 2 more episodes, but since TDA is already busy working on the other episodes, Studio B animated it.
