My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Post by Ami »

WHY IS THERE NOT A THREAD ABOUT THIS YET OH WAIT I JUST MADE ONE

This is one of the more pleasant surprises in television: a My Little Pony show that doesn't suck. In fact, it's pretty awesome! Don't believe me? Go on youtube and watch the first three or four episodes.

I can wait.

I know, right? Such a great show. In fact, you know what you deserve?

I remember nothing about My Little Pony except for one thing... the horrible Finnish dub!

Try listening this song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO_1gWdDmD8

And yes that's from the *official dub*. And this was made by the same "team" that made the infamous dub for Digimon... You don't have to understand the language to know they're horrible...

FiM is even popular on 4chan. That really says something, to me. A friend got me into it and I've become addicted. It's really the only TV show I regularly watch.

My god, it... is actually good. I mainly like it for it's high production values, like the amazing animation and mind-blowing voice acting. But it is awesome.

Edit: The ending of the second episode killed it for me. They had a set-up for an edgy, almost dark kid show(always been my fav. kind) what with the Mare in the Moon, and just dark approach the second episode had... but then kid's show syndrome kicked in. Now it's meh.

...Is this a troll thread? Did Geno spontaneously develop a strange sense of humor? Or is this really something that has to be seen to be believed...?

Oh god, I'm ashamed to admit it but I'm a fan. It's kinda kiddy, yes, but it's just really enjoyable. The cast is really addictive: I haven't seen a children's show with so much personality in a long time. I mean, it IS kind of a buzzkill that there's this whole eerie conflict set up and then it just kind of becomes a Cartoon Network show... but you just have to adapt. If liking FiM is girly then I don't care if I'm not a man.

Well, the musicals are kind of hard to stomach, but those rarely happen anymore. :P

Oh: And the ponies's body language is just adorable.

And the body language is correct too.

And I don't mind the lack of a storyline, it works well without one. But I can't deny that the first episodes did set up something. Blame the executives for that one. They where the ones to deny a longer story.

I started watching a tiny bit... it seems to have a slightly darker theme to it. It's not as much as 100% fluff anymore. xD

I dedicate my newest signature to Trufseeker: He can't stand the two characters in my sig :P (I personally can't see anything wrong with Fluttershy but okay... I personally find Pinkie Pie hilarious although I can kinda see why some would find her annoying)

I'm addicted: I literally can't even sleep right now!

The whole story of the first 2 episodes was amazingly predictable, I was just waiting for
Spoiler : :
the princess to say "Just as planned".
It was decent though, I suppose.
