A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

@dark: Just rewatched the map scene, and realized that they actually used this map,
◊ albeit a version with more muted colors. The place they ended up in is the far northwest corner of the map, just past the Galloping Gorge and near Vanhoover.
Rewatching the episode I do find myself chuckling at the RD/Daring Do scene with explaining that she can't trust anyone due to secrets. Even getting beyond the apparent lack of trust towards someone who's helped to save either all of or part of Equestria 4-5 times now, truly there's no better way of keeping secrets than writing a mega successful series of books about them that anyone can read.

Hmm, so it's part of Equestria? OK the geography once you get past the American analogues is feeling patchy.
Who's to say she doesn't sensor her adventures? It could be that a lot of the real important stuff she deals with that's not adventure-friendly or a bit exaggerated is vital information that could be dangerous in the wrong hooves?

@dark: Well, the official map isn't to scale. So even though the section this episode took place in looks small and empty, there's presumably a bunch of stuff in that region that wasn't included since it hadn't been mentioned on the show yet. There could be like a thousand square miles in that small section of the map for all we know.
Hi everypony! I'm watching the new episode right now! I LOVE IT when Twilight and Rainbow are talking about the book like extreme fans! I love it sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
https://youtu.be/_1F5HhUvFbM?si=csgwerqELcG6615qNow something strikes me as odd... if Daring Do is real, then her resemblence to Rainbow Dash in, say, manestyle is weird.
When she was fictional, it looked as if Rainbow subtly combined the book's description with her own features to project herself on the book's protagonist, but now it's one hell of a coincidence.
Considering Daring Do was visible on the cover of the book in Read It And Weep? Not really new weirdness.
Anyone else fascinated by Yearling's typewriter? Two big keys, and a spacebar. Admittedly, it's what you'd expect for a species with no fingers, but it makes me wonder how they get it to register different letters.
Also, it's definitely different from Jade Singer's typewriter. Though, she's a unicorn, so maybe they use different keyboards, and "hit" the keys with magic.
I have a message from another time...@Star (jumps up and down) I LOVE THIS EPISODE! And when Rainbow got the new book, I liked how exicted she got!
https://youtu.be/_1F5HhUvFbM?si=csgwerqELcG6615q@Lumin I want to do that but I don't think I would do a good job.
