This Pinkie is pretty cute too. I loved the silly faces, and that was a catchy song!

Man, I'll need to readjust my manhood after this. tongue[lol]

Episode 2 was probably the most rushed out of the episodes. It feels like there's scenes missing, all the more glaring because episode 1 was so well put together.

So, Settled Score? That's a great name, but Diamond Tiara looks? Well... it's kind of difficult to imagine this pint-sized filly going up against 6 superheroes even with Goblin stuff.

Got Mr Incredible, Sulley and Jack Sparrow for mine

Are you talking about the Disney toy crossover game thing? Because I thought that was the free characters it normally came with. Do some games come with a different set?

You don't need to adjust a thing. I say you're much more of a man when you admit that you like this show and be damn proud of it. Just DON'T RUB IT IN EVERYONE ELSE'S FACES![lol]

ahem

I thought she was just going up against the Powerpuff Fillies. Shouldn't be that bad.

[up]Maybe I missed a couple posts, but her motivation was intially against the Power Ponies.

@Story Eeyup. They actually come as the starter pack for every, there are several packs for different characters for the same game. Some are sold separately, some are sold in a set three for each of 'em.

Most rushed? Ummm, MMC says hello. Also KKAFO, and well, yeah being rushed is by far the most consistent flaw with the show.

Ah, I knew it. They are the elements. And that attack was like something out of a japanese cartoon. This whole show is very 1980s action cartoon and that's pretty cool. cool

YMMV, MMC is a bit rushed, but still works quite well in spite of it.

And I still like Bad Sport better for DT's superhero name.

@Dan. well, it took a lot of inspiration from the G1 80s series and made by the creator's husband who did Power Puff Girls, so it's no wonder why.

I don't know if anyone has told you this though, but a good chunk of the show after the pilot is Slice of Life stuff. There's still some adventure episodes thrown in every now and then, but the SOL stuff works fine since it lets you get a better look at the main character's personalities, and it's also usually not boring unlike most SOL shows.

#32715: Dec 27th 2013 at 5:17:32 PM

Well, the original WAS Faust's inspiration, only, she did it better.

And yeah whatever issues the pilot has, that scene is just so so SO fucking epic.

Now, on to the slice of life stuff. Who's laying on odds on what episode pushes him full on Pony?

#32716: Dec 27th 2013 at 5:18:37 PM

My guess will be that he'll fully gets into the show with either Winter Wrap Up or Bridle Gossip.

It's over! OK, I admit it, that was pretty cool. I think I could get into this show. It looks like a lot of fun! Now I'm assuming that Rainbow and Fluttershy are Pegasuses, and Rarity and Twilight are Unicorns obviously. What are Pinkie and Applejack? And what other pony types are there?

@Sports-themed villainess name: Perhaps Foul Play could work as well?

@Danny C: Glad to see ya like the show thus far. Hopefully, you'll find the rest to be just as enjoyable at the very least! (If the avatar's not a giveaway answer, favorite pony is Fluttershy for me.)

@Danny C's question of pony types: We've got pegasi, Unicorns, Earth Ponies (Applejack and Pinkie), and Alicorns (Nightmare Moon fell under this) to my knowledge.

Pinkie and AJ are "Earth Ponies", and as for other pony types there's only one more known as Alicorn, which are ponies with both wings and horns, the amount of which consists only of Celestia, Luna and someone else you'll meet in the Season 2 finale.

[down]Right, forgot about those too. Though so far the Bat Ponies haven't done anything noticeable.

Earth Ponies.

And there are also Crystal Ponies, Bat Ponies, and Alicorns.

@Dan: Earth, Pegasi, Unicorns, Alicorns, Bat, Changeling, Crystal and Sea. (last 4 are debatable)

What's the differences? I can see that unicorns can do magic and Pegasus can fly.

Magic, Weather and Earth powers respectively.

Not sure what your problem with KKAFO was. And while being rushed is a common problem in the show, MMC is in a whole other tier. It's basically a two parter that got crammed into one episode.
