A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

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!

@Crimson I had a crush on Sailor Mercury. I thought she was attractive because she had bubble power...but what really attracted me to her is that she was a bookworm and smart and quiet. I could relate to her when I was little because I loved to read. I still do.

Yeah, nobody expected it. I don't think Viz even hinted at it before it was announced, they just did.
Honestly, sometimes I like it when creators/distributors surprise their fans like that. One of my favorite musicians, Sufjan Stevens, went on a sorta-hiatus starting in 2007. His fans went nuts guessing what he was working on, and the complete lack of news made a few folks think he was quitting music altogether. Then in 2010, he released an EP (as an online download) without any prior announcement. Then a week later, he said "Oh, by the way, new album. A month from now. You're welcome." That was glorious.

@Meta: It was fantastic watching all the Sailor Moon tumblrs I follow just completely explode with news and excitement. Literally ten years of nothing, and then suddenly everything. XD

[up] So, by about half way through season five, we'll be at 100 episodes. I wonder if the team has anything planned?

@Star Yeah but...geez. I haven't watched the show since the Gold/Silver era and I only got into the X/Y because people kept telling me to. Now, if you'll excuse me...I have to play some Shadow of the Collasius and Mass Effect 2. See ya!

I got into a female oriented show when I was younger (Sailor Moon) so the younger me and the me now could totally relate to each other. I wish my younger self could come here somehow and we could watch Sailor Moon and Mlp together all summer. The girls actually kind of made fun of me for watching Sailor Moon when I was a kid.

[up][up][up][up]That's not even the longest running animated series nor does it have the most episodes.

@Star: More importantly, it's been airing for seventeen years (which ironically means it's seven years older than its protagonist).

Something bugs me about that list: What the hell is The Regular Show? I know what Regular Show is, but I've never heard of "The Regular Show." Is it anything like The Family Guy?

Is she actually happy?

Maud, the only pony where you need a microscope to read her expressions. Man I love that mare. :3

[up]She has the same emotionless face as always. She's being pet by a human in the picture I linked, so for all we know she probably is happy, but not showing it.
