Super-adorable Leona pony reminding me that I've had LoL sitting on my desktop for months and haven't played a single game.


Should be playing DotA 2 anyway.

Call me crazy but I prefer LoL's artistic style quite strongly over DotA 2's. Plus all my buddies from the TeamLiquid Ponycraft 2 tournaments and IRC play LoL.

Finished S2 so I can post here. I'm not sure how I feel about the recent episodes. It seems that the MLP creators have completely abandoned writing the show for girls and are now completely targeting the college male audience. It seems like it has lost some of the magic it had because of that. Episodes were still good, they just didn't have the same *this is awesome even though it was written for small girls* feeling to them.


Was I the only one that was disappointed when all of the evil people were just magically killed due to love? It seemed rather contrived to me. Rest of the episode was amazing though

Well the whole theme of a wedding is supposed to be like everlasting love or whatever, so not really contrived. Also not killed, but repelled back to wherever they came from.

Really? The S2 finale reminded me more that I was watching a show for little girls more than any episode since the pilot.

Considering that they blast the villain with a friendship beam in both season openings and friendship is canonically a super-strong form of magic... well, it really shouldn't be a surprise that love is the same way.

Make up your mind, man

Anyways, S2 definitely went in the more crazy direction (similar to what S2 of Community did compared to S1), but it is still very much a children's show. I mean, some of the best episodes are the most girly. Hearts and Hooves Day especially.

I actually think Hearts and Hooves day is a pretty non-girly episode. It's only "girly" on a superficial level that it's about valentine's day and s***, but it's basically completely taking the piss out of the idea of love and relationships and dating.

Rarity third wat

I agree Pinkie and Twilight are virtually tied for one and two. Twilight being by far the most consistently great pony and Pinkie having by far the best jokes... Though often some of the worst as well.

But rarity just doesn't have any redeeming anything.

People like Rarity for her VA work and her songs I guess. Also her drama queen persona leads to some funny over-the-top moments, but eh her personality is by far the most off-putting of the mane cast for me.

Twilight is terrible. She does nothing for me. She's not interesting enough, she doesn't get any really great lines, and she just seems too bland overall. I guess she has to be the main character, but I just do not care for Twilight at all. Fluttershy's kind of the same, but I kind of figured everyone who really likes her mainly likes her because she's cute and shy. And those qualities just do NOT appeal to me at all. She does have some good moments, though, I admit.

Rarity has pretty much a perfect track record for episodes. All her episodes are pretty interesting and I like them quite a lot. For a character that has a REALLY flat premise, there's surprisingly a lot to work with her. Plus, amazing voice acting and I think she's well-written, especially in her central episodes.

Rarity is just the most consistently funny as well as the most flawed character. She's even more neurotic than Twilight, and neuroticism is the most funny quality they play off of in this show. Her VA also really sells her character perfectly. That's pretty much all there is to it. Rarity is hilarious and anyone who disagrees doesn't see eye to eye with me on humor.

Fluttershy and Twilight just tend to be pretty hilarious as well and are virtually tied at 2 and 3 for me. Rainbow Dash has her moments. Applejack is boring and remains boring, although when they try to make her not boring sometimes they succeed. Pinkie Pie's gimmick actually started to grate on me horribly this season, and I've grown tired of her. She was perfect in Party of One but she's become completely one-note ever since and that one note is irritatingly screechy.

Of course, everyone has their own opinions, but I've found that mine have pretty much crystallized this season and I'm a bit surprised not many people share my feelings.

Pinkie works best as a side character, but she will always be my favorite. I love her tendency to steal scenes, and even entire episodes (Last Roundup was about Applejack? I was too busy focused on Pinkie to care).
