Meh, thought they were going to take this in a different direction, honestly. mini/eh
Wasn't impressed.
Luna and Pinkie Pie humor were the only things that kept me watching.

Luna is now best pony. Sorry Twi.

Yeah, it wasn't a particularly well-written episode (I cringed when Luna questioned what fun was, it was out of place and a bit obvious in such a relatively naturalistic show. The only character who can get away with that question is Plankton) but I found Luna to be really likeable.

THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED

Re: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic - Appreciation Thread

I liked it. Best parts were with Fluttershy and Derpy, but of course that goes without saying. A little too much ditzy Pinkie Pie for my tastes. And no Rarity. mini/sad

Still leagues better than the cringe-worthy Wild West episode.

Every season of every television show I've ever watched has at least one episode like that. Let's hope this was the [only] one for season 2.

Re: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic - Appreciation Thread

I think Rarity wasn't included because it would have been a bit easy to mix her voice up with Luna's, which would be a bit of a problem on Luna's first outing. They've both got the strange American-British hybrid accent, which is to be expected as they are both voiced by Tabitha St. Germain. All the other doubled-up voice actors' characters (Appledash, Flutterpie) at least sound different enough from each other.

Also, EqD has informed me that there's finally a brony meet-up I'll be able to go to! Anyone gong to the London MCM Expo this weekend (which is precisely zero of you), see you there! I'm hoping to go as Rainbow Dash.

Actually, they were going to put her in the episode, but they didn't manage to put her in the episode time. Therte's something about it in EQd.

Re: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic - Appreciation Thread

I've entered the WeLoveFine t-shirt contest, if anyone liked my design and wanted to vote. Link is in my sig.

I am saddened by the prospect of the pony-less week ahead. On the bright side, I did enjoy the Luna episode and was rather happy with her characterization. Unfortunately, I can't help but suspect that, given the way the plot was resolved, she won't be coming back for anything more than the occasional silent appearance beside Celestia (if that). Hope I'm not correct.

Re: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic - Appreciation Thread

Huh, I actually voted for your design while I was browsing through the entries. (I was planning to vote for them all like I did last time, then after about ten minutes of this I realised I had 945 left to go.) I think I gave it a 4 or a 5. There are an awful lot of bad designs in there burying the good stuff, now I know how the Review Panel feels.

Also, new avatar. I am Pipsqueak, the British pony.

Was that...the first episode...

without twilight? And it was shocking news knowing that grey little pegasus isn't Derpy's little sister.

Loved it. Not sure if better than Lesson zero, but close enough for me.

Dude. Derpy is Dinky's mom.

Why does EVERYONE think that they were sisters? So gross

Oh, Derpy's a mum? Well congratulations then...
She looked too young to me (but I don't know anything about ponies aging process), that's why I thought they were sisters.

According to you, that would make Screwball Derpy's daughter as well.

Well, from all the Derpy fanfiction, comics and roleplays I've read, Derpy is Dinky's mom.

You know those sources aren't canon, right?

(For the record, I don't like My Little Brony. They never give any credit to the authors. mini/frustrated )

I don't see why Rarity gets such a bad rap in general, I think she's hilarious. She deserves more love than certain other ponies.

Since there isn't a canon explanation, I just think of them as mother and daughter. Derpy and Dinky probably aren't even related, but it's just the fanfics and comics I've read with them being related are soooo cuuuuuteee <3

See, the problem is when you started reading Derpy fanfiction, comics and roleplays.

Re: My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic - Appreciation Thread

I'm in denial because I don't want to face the truth that something so cute isn't real
