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.

I'd post but I don't really have much to say, or whenever I check in the topic is something I'm uninterested in.
I'm liking the big manes on Rainbow Power.
Here's hoping they show up in the show.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.Yeah, I think you're the only one here who wants the rainbow power things to appear in the show.

Personally, I think Rarity and Twilight look pretty cool. Rainbow Dash's mane looks a bit overly Dragonball Z inspired, though. But seriously, I don't get what the big deal is. I seriously doubt it's going to be permanent; it's basically just going to replace the elements; i.e. they show up once or twice in the season premiere/finale and only get mentioned offhand in the meantime.

Reaction Image RepositoryPersonally I like the look of all of them, Rainbow's is probably my favourite. I'm hoping for at least more screen time than the crystal mode.
Tealove is best pony.Pony Fanon IndexIts probably been mentioned before, but I just noticed on the display thing that Twilight Sparkle has her Element of Magic Crown back.
Speculation HOOO!
You there! Check out my Youtube Channel! The power of Ponies compel you!Well, her old crown did look way better than that new one.
I do think the Rainbow Power ponies do look a bit over the top, but a bit of ridiculousness is perfectly fine, perhaps even expected, for a one off power up.
Regarding post rate, I'm at work so that limits how much I can screw around on the internet. And on new episode days the episode airs at 7:30 where I am, so I usually only hang around for an hour or two after to discuss before going and taking a nap.
I normally wait to watch the episode on Youtube so I won't comment until the afternoon when it's already died down.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI personally think the Rainbow Power designs look fine and wouldn't mind them being used on the show, but I also wouldn't be upset if they stayed toyline-only. Then again, this is coming from someone who thinks that Everything's Better with Rainbows and whose aesthetic sense is kind of like a cross between Rainbow Dash's and Pinkie Pie's in that I love brightly colored things that other people often think look too gaudy or silly.
If it's permanent I might raise an eyebrow. But it's like a magical girl then that's OK.
It looks like Equestria Online Legends of Equestria
will be having an open weekend in a couple of weeks.
Too bad I'll be away during that weekend.
I actually kind of like the Rainbow Power Ponies designs, particularly Rarity's design. I don't think they're as bad as people make them out to be.
Also, here's some awesome fanart based on the incredibly underrated FIM comics {Probably not something Danny should look at since it contains spoilers}.

@Marston's spoiler warnings: Until I give the word, if there's any comic stuff or S4E8 spoilers, feel free to give fair warning for me too? -squeaky smile- (Kinda also goes for anyone else, if that's okay.)
Apologies about not posting a whole lot really, but again, the fact of possibly being spoiled and real life getting the better of me didn't help my case.

@NES: Sure thing.
And now we have Twilight's rebellious teen phase.![]()

It wasn't just Ginger. Ginger and Applelight were two of the top posters and both got banned. There have been dozens of others who got banned, quit, or just stopped posting as well. Ginger was probably the primary cause of the drop in posting rate though.
