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 don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

I noticed something that might be a callback to Flight to the Finish. In that story, the CMC note that they represent each of the three types of ponies, and that's how they would represent Ponyville's diversity as well. In this story, they had the CMC represent the EUP because, of course, they are a group that includes an Earth pony, a pegasus, and a unicorn, representing all three types of ponies! (Edit: I looked back at the Recap page for the episode and yes, that is noted on there, so I wasn't the only one who saw a connection.)

So would the Wonderbolts be like a part of the EUP?

Well Hasbro did Equestria Girls, so how about "My Little Centaur"?

I also noted that Cherry Berry was the one flying the helicopter that almost crashed into Twilight. Seems like they're going for the idea that she's an Earth pony who likes to drive flying vehicles such as helicopters and she's consistently shown operating hot-air balloons in stories like Mare-Do-Well, Spike At Your Service and Magical Mystery Cure. I had personally thought of a headcanon where she's a comedian or at least a comedian wannabe because of her telling a joke in Putting Your Hoof Down that I thought implied she was practicing for a routine, but maybe she's a comedian AND a balloon/helicopter flyer! Gives you a ride and entertains you with jokes as well!

Random: I just finished writing a ~4000 word one-shot fanfic. It's a slice of life thing with some comedy elements. Also, it involves Maud. Would anybody be willing look over it before I post it?

Have I mentioned that these ponymote things are awesome?

Hmmmm. That implies that there could be Earth Pony and Unicorn equivalents.

We went to the Neighthoven concert together. We got to meet him backstage. He posed for pictures with us. How could you have forgotten? Do I mean that little to you?

@Lightning Dust It wasn't what I was thinking! Look I've just been caught up with other things is all. But I did enjoy myself while I was there and that's the main thing right? And the idea is to enjoy yourself which we did immensely.

Wow, TPP Emerald is having a surprsingly difficult time at the Elite Four considering that their level 94 Azumarill is over twice the level of their opponents. I guess this is what happens when an actually decent AI meets Twitch style.
