My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Thread

Postby Lubyak » Sat Apr 30, 2011 11:39 am

So, how many other NS players are fellow bronies? How many of us enjoy sneaking in small references to the show in our rps and things?

I for one definitely enjoy it...even though it first seems like a girly girl show, it turns out to be so adorable and sweet, with actually decent plot and jokes that I'll admit I'm hooked. Friendship is Magic is one show I will keep watching.


P.S.

FLuttershy is the best.

I've been having great fun with the show. In character as my nation I've recently begun an orbital weapons platform project, and I've given the first two the badass names of Twilight Sparkle and Nightmare Moon.

I also wargame alot, and in one of the space battle ones I play a friend's fleet is led by Pirate Princess Celestia aboard the strike carrier NIghtmare Moon, while my flagship is the mighty battlecruiser Mei Minimus Equus.

:lol2:

And thank you, I noticed a depressing lack of pony threads, so I felt I must rectify the problem. The newest episode is also quite awesome. Emo insane Pinkie Pie for one. :lol2:

Indeed it is. Especially given that that carrier is responsible for wrecking far too many of my ships. The Crusade to halt the NIghtmare Moon is under way!

:idea: ...Oooh, Cutie Mark Crusader might sound interesting when translated into Dog Latin.

And yeah, the latest episode is quite fun. Emo insane(r) Pinkie Pie...yeah.

<3 Pinkie Pie.

Nothing is entirely serious, everything is worth a giggle. I see a bit of myself in her <_<

And we both like pink >_>

And when she's hopping around... Well, that's just adorable.

Secondary characters... Fluttershy's favourite bunny is great ^^

Have you seen the latest episode? Pissed off Pinkie Pie is probably the most terrifying thing I've seen on the show so far. :shock:

A My Little Pony thread? How odd. In any case, I've nothing to say on this subject, so I'll be going. Enjoy yourselves. :)
It took me two years to find this (meaning the thing that lets you edit your sig). How sad is that? :'(
You know, I always planned to add a bunch of clever quotes to this once I figured out how, but I don't remember any. I found one now, though:

Isworld needs to be converted.

Thoroughly missleading it may be, but it's for a good cause!

Edit: Set the wrong link. Argh.

Watching the first episode on youtube. This is most definately realplayer download worthy. I'm definately naming one of my rp demons "Twilight Sparkle."

In fact, I'm naming my firstborn child Pinkie Pie. Regardless of gender.

how many episodes are there?

(So far, in the five that I've watched, Pinkie Pie has thrown five parties)

25. Episode 26 next friday.

Second season's already been confirmed.

I'm a little torn. I can understand Hasbro putting down its foot and telling Lauren Faust that season-long arcs are a bad idea and shouldn't be done (For the first season, anyway) - I remember well enough when I was little and longer storyarcs in my cartoons aggravated the fuck out of me because when you're < 10, it just ain't possible to catch all the episodes in the desired order. OTOH, everyone's got the intertubes now (And considering that The Hub isn't exactly a major network, the intertubes are presumably the way the majority of the audience watches), so it's a lot less of a problem now than it was in the 1980s... Maybe the producers should give it a shot after all, if only as an episode backdrop rather than the dominant theme.

I may need to start watching just to see what's gotten so many people I know (including a number of guys who don't strike me as being at all interested in a "girly" show) so hooked. I've heard that there's been a plague of ponies over on 4chan to the point it's become a meme.

And I suppose I can try and compare it to the old MLP cartoons I watched as a kid. ;)
