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.

Eh, even then I think it's less that the elements are addressed and more how they're handled. An episode about AJ dealing with losing her parents but ultimately coming to terms with it wouldn't really feel "dark" to me if it were treated in a way consistent with what we've seen. A story about Applejack spiraling into depression after losing her parents would. It's really all up to interpretation, though.
EDIT: And now, sleep.

Well don't read it then. I really like it, but it's not for everyone. If you come into it expecting to hate it, you're probably going to hate it. Just like I'm never going to read Project Horizons.

Well, except plain rice, but, well... boring.

I think they're stupid too, I just don't bother complaining usually.
You needed brick, didn't you.

Well, it's not a huge deal. I'll survive one night of being mildly peckish.

And they managed to get trading working and got a female Omanyte.
Named LADY HELIX.
And the outrage was so loud that trading was disabled and she was put in the Box immediately.

But the show never really handled the subject of death. Showing a couple frames of a funeral scene does not count for that, especially when it's used for lighthearted comedic effect in an upbeat song about shipping.
Also, I should clarify that I didn't mean merely referencing the tragic elements, but putting them under the spotlight. It's the difference between having a pair of stars twinkling in the night sky and writing a chapter or two about Applejack grieving.

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