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!

Did you at least throw in a bizarre twist at the end?

I have the Sailor Moon theme stuck in my head, and it's making me want to see the show itself.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

Last time the story would go for 3-4 chapters realtively normally, and then someone who completely change the story out of nowhere. I wonder how this one is going.

@dark: there's a short video out there on tumblr of a panel where they previewed Usagi's new voice. idk, I thought her voice was pretty cute but there was a lot of complaining too. I can link it if you want, but it doesn't appear to be on youtube.

You aren't reading it as we send the chapters to you?

I'm trying not to. I do catch a few bits in the process of compiling the chapters and sending them out.

I'd appreciate that, Gwen.smile

Stephanie Sheh's going to be great for the role, her most well-heard voices were for Bleach's Orihime, Naruto's Hinata, and Lucky Star's Kagami.

I read Puella Magi Modoka Magica today. And I came to a conclusion: Kyubey is really bloody evil.

I only watched the first two episodes of that show.

Yes, I'm aware that's probably the absolute worst place to stop watching, but I just lost interest in it.

No, it's more a case of Blue-and-Orange Morality. He isn't evil, and he is doing things for the greater good, but he's doing a lot of things we would find morally questionable.

[up] Dude, you didn't even get to the deconstruction phase!

[up]I'm aware. The first two episodes just failed to grab my interest. I knew it was going to go the deconstruction route pretty quick, but since I didn't find the world they showed me at the beginning interesting, then why should I care when it all comes crashing down?

That, and as an idealist, I just don't really care for fiction that revels in how hopeless things are. So it was a hard sell either way.

Thanks to the internet, the overly enthusiastic fandom spoiled me on almost everything before I saw the anime, so it was really boring. Like going through a checklist. People, it's supposed to be a series full of subverted expectations and surprises. You lose these the enjoyment they get if they spoil every bloody thing.

I wasn't that interested with the first two episodes, but then episode 3 happened.

@Irish: It Gets Better at the end, unless you take the third movie into account, apparently. (I haven't seen it.)

@dark: I managed to stay unspoiled for about two years, and then decided to marathon it on a whim in a night. That was definitely fun. The soundtrack is kickass. But what you said is pretty much the reason I've come think The Lion King is overrated. Except replace the internet with overenthusiastic friends.

This has nothing to do with ponies or what your talking about, but it's a really nice piece of music I thought I'd share with you all.

Lion King's good, but it's not amazing. It's darker than Disney was at the time, but that's about it. I don't think it's one of the best of all time, as the fandom likes to jabber about.

Bleh, I'm just really sick of the concept of fandoms these days. Wining, yelling, throwing petty arguments, and pickier than a 7-armed guitarist.
