I like how a completely shitty episode was saved by Rarity wearing a cute outfit.

*skipped*

>>42438584
Applejack should just suck Spike off already, she wants that dragon cock so bad it's embarrassing.

>>42438589
She definitely gave him some love lessons on how to woo Rarity up in the hayloft.

>>42438584

>>42438536 (OP)
Spike episodes are WAY worse

>>42438836
Just for Sidekicks was actually good, so yes

>>42438584
Spike episodes are all terrible. They all seem extremely dumbed down for some reason like zero thought was put into them. I figured being the only male main character he'd get a little bit more effort when he is actually on screen

>>42438536 (OP)

>>42438862
spike episodes suck because they completely change his character for them. he's usually level-headed and normal in every other episode, but he acts like a retard when he's the focus

Not even a Rarifag but her episodes are easily the most consistently good throughout the show.

>>42439025
>feel threatened wytboi?

>>42439059
How do they feel?

overall quality of episodes based on character focus:
Rarity > Dash > Twilight > Pinkie > AJ > Fluttershy

based on seasons 1-7 because I have not watched 8 or 9. this is not indicative of character quality either.

Butters wasn't white enough for you tyrone?

>>42439117
Dash and Pinkie consistently have awful episodes, tf you talking about? The only Pinkie episode from the first three seasons that doesn't have a divisive reputation around it is Party of One, and most Dash episodes have a pretty negative reception too.

>>42439035
Yeah it's sad, he was suffering from the same issue the main 6 suffered in nu-mlp

>>42439442
looking back on it I was probably a bit too harsh on fluttershy as she is my least favorite pony, but she does have some fun episodes despite how I feel about her as a character. I think dash generally speaking has pretty inoffensive to good episodes though, maybe I would put her below twilight but I think she can stay in that general area. Pinkie's episodes are a mixed bag but I'd say she gets off slightly better than other characters as the show goes on. I'm also judging them on the entirety of seasons 1-7 not just the first three. AJ basically peaks in the first two seasons and only gets a good episode when matched up with the other ponies after that. In fact I'd say her best episodes past season 2 are the ones where she's paired up with pinkie, pinkie apple pie and hearthbreakers.

>>42439491
I think people are too harsh on AJ and Spike. AJ's episodes throughout season 4 at least are fine, there's nothing that wrong with Somepony to Watch Over Me or Apple Family Reunion. And I've never understood what the big deal with Spike episodes was, most of them seemed fine to me. But Pinkie was the only member of the mane 6 who's episodes I actively skipped over on my first viewing as a result of all the feedback from the fanbase. Even the episodes of hers that aren't divisive don't have overwhelmingly positive reception, they're just alright.
Idk, I've just seen more hate for Pinkie episodes than I have any other mane 6 episodes. They seem to be reliably weak, and whenever people talk about the worst episode of a season, a Pinkie episode is almost always one of the top contenders. I'm not a huge fan of Rainbow Dash and Rarity, but I just really can't think of any Pinkie episodes that I really liked the way I can for other characters.

>>42438536 (OP)
rarity is good but what really makes an episode is Discord because he’s cool and i said so and dont try to give a counter argument because you know i’m right.

>>42439025
do you?

>>42439044
Season 1 and 2 rarity episodes are pretty great. I can't think of one I don't like

>>42439991
I don't understand this attitude. AJ's cutie mark is all about her connection to her family. It's the equivalent of complaining about a Rarity episode being about fashion, or a Dash episode being about the Wonderbolts. If Applejack episodes aren't supposed to have any involvement of her family, then give me some good Rarity episodes that aren't about fashion in some way.

>>42439117
Bro really tried to sneak Dash into the good episodes category. She has Sonic Rainboom + Read it and Weep and that's it.

>>42440011
The solution is zero applejack episodes

>>42439524
>I've never understood what the big deal with Spike episodes was
He's a not a girl. Fake fans are the majority and they watch for "muh dick". A lot of the criticism towards them conveniently leave out the fact that he's a little boy, so he's going to act irrational and dumb at times. His episodes are easily better than Fluttershy and Applejack episodes.

>>42440011
Family isn't a talent, so what you're really saying is that AJ is a nothing character propped up by family.

>>42439991
Hearts and Hooves Day is good, although that focuses on Cheerilee and the Crusaders as a collective more than Big Mac and Apple Bloom. Maybe you're right.

God damn every time we have a thread about the show itself I'm reminded how retarded anons takes are.

>>42440043
Which takes are upsetting you?

>>42440028
>>42440034
>If the episode isn't about constantly pushing a career forward then it's shit and a nothing burger.
No wonder you people say Rarity has the best episodes, when that's your only metric. A Rarity episode could be abject shit and you'd still give it a pass if it had her advancing her career.
I'm sorry Applejack isn't enough of a Mary Sue for you. Some characters actually suffer things called failure. Usually that's considered a good thing in stories, but I guess MLPfags prefer it when their favorite is always successful.

>>42440034
>Family isn't a talent
Family is a destiny. Applejack's destiny is to support and lead her family.

>>42440011
I generally agree with you, but
>give me some good Rarity episodes that aren't about fashion in some way
Rarity Investigates.
>inb4 costumes
Those are basically props to add to the atmosphere. They don't actually interact with the plot, which is about Rarity's astuteness and eye for detail even when she's being dramatic.
If that's not enough for you, then try Inspiration Manifestation, which is about aesthetics in general. It also happens to be the only good Spike episode precisely because he's not totally lobotomised and shows the desire to be a good, responsible friend, even though he's still somewhat immature.

>>42440066
>>give me some good Rarity episodes that aren't about fashion in some way
>Rarity Investigates.
Yea, and TLR and Applebuck Season have almost nothing to do with the rest of Applejack's family too. My point is people are holding AJ to an unrealistic standard that none of the other mane 6 are being held to with this argument.

>>42440066
>the only good Spike episode
Am I the only person who thinks that Owls Well was alright? I thought the make-up between Spike and Twilight was sweet, and him being jealous and acting slightly irrationally because of it isn't that much of a stretch. What's so wrong with it?

>>42440050
Nah I just hate southerners

>>42438536 (OP)
Let me tell you something pal. Let me tell you something very important. Listen carefully so you can understand how bad your judgement was right now.
But to make my message REALLY get to you, we need to discuss something else first. It will seem like it got nothing to do with you, me, or this very thing you have done. But i assure you - it does, and does big time.
Right here and right now we simply need to talk.

We need to talk about BUTT.

As a young boy, nobody took it seriously. I was mostly just a source of cheap jokes, vulgar, infantile laughter and mockery. "NA NA NANA NA, smelly ass hahaha! Farting! LOL" and so on. It was childish, immature and stupid, true. Nothing to be proud of really, but come on! Everyone was just a kid, right? Great majority of adults, be it parents, neighbors, teachers and so on could scold us a little bit for it, but generally they didn't made big fuss about it. It was kinda half-allowed because they knew that we're not going to stay kids forever. Just give the kids few years, and they'll grow out of it, right? GOD DAMN RIGHT.

Indeed, few years have already passed, and you're in the middle of your metamorphosis.You're not a kid anymore, you are a TEENAGER. One of the many changes happening during that time, is your point of view on certain things. One of those things is BUTT. Girls in your class have it. This hot math teacher have it, Random leggins-wearing, booty-shaking, suddenly-bending-over-because-something-is-on-the-lowest-shelf woman in front of you in the store have it. You've noticed that you suddenly like it, you want it, need it. You gonna FUCK it. What you wouldn't give to Veronica just to put your dynamite stick between these b... uh, and so on. This horny teenager stereotype didn't appear out of nowhere, you know?

Yet again, this state also did not last forever. Another stage of life must come to the end, just to make room for another stage to begin. You're adult. You've made choices, took chances and risks, made mistakes and gained experiences. With new responsibilities comes new skills and perks. You know your limits and tastes. Now you know what kind of BUTT you like the most. Since you're no longer victim of raging hormones, you can judge and evaluate any BUTT you'll come in contact with by your own set of criteria. In other words, you've mastered THE BUTT.

Now, with all that said, here comes that important lesson:
You need to mature and grow up to see the real worth of the matter. Just like the butt.
Important values require experience and time to be grasped in it's full glory. Just like the butt
Things that appear worthless and laughable at first, might prove to be invaluable and fabulous, only if you won't let yourself be taken by your lowest desires. Just like the butt

Rarity is THE BUTT.

tl;dr

>>42440603
Thanks ChatGPT, very enlightening.

>>42440796
pinkie's usually only bad in episodes not focused primarily on her. in other character's episodes, pinkie usually just plays the role of "quirky random comic relief" which is just a chore to sit through. but she can't just sit back and play the comic relief in her own stories, so the writers actually have to try to write her well. dash has the opposite problem where she's usually fine, but is completely unlikeable in nearly all of her own episodes.

>>42440835
>>42440796
Pinkie episodes even in season one have mixed reception. Her and Dash just don't mix well with the other characters regardless of who's episode it is.

I thought the mirror pool episode was fun.

>>42439972
not particularly no, i fuck bugs, thank you very much.

>>42440085
I thought the owl with the stupid name that rarely shows up ever again was lame, and Spike's competition being a pet is plain degrading when that's one of his better episodes. The writing itself is enjoyable past that.

The chad early season family enjoyer.

I hate Rarity so much. The first time I asked out a girl her and her friends just laughed and walked away. She was in the same special ed program as me too. I thought I was the only guy who would ever ask her out. She ended dating some Brad in a shitty alternative rock band that didn't even last a year before failing. Everytime I hear Rarity's laugh I get dizzy with rage because of Savannah. MLP:FiM would be such a great show if it wasn't ruined by Cuntity. I HATE YOU SAVANNAH! I HOPE YOU GET FUCKING CANCER BITCH!

It's an Applejack episode! (There is only like 3 of them)

Apple Bloom episodes are often Applejack episodes so it's not too bad.

>>42439044
The dubs don't lie, the climax of Sweet and Elite is one of the best friendship moments in the entire show.

A whole board dedicated to a single cartoon, and most of you faggots don't even like 80% of the show. Why are we even here?

Do rarifags really?

>>42443642
One of the best. There are too many contenders to name the single best one off the top of my head. Regardless, what's your problem with it? I kinda get a case of the manly feels when Rarity chooses her friends over the approval of Canterlot's high society in the end.

On that note, Rarity risking her reputation to support Fluttershy when she bombs on stage in Green Isn't Your Color is the single most underrated S1 moment. Rarity is just a kino machine in the early seasons.

>>42443652
It's alright, I just think calling it the best is a bit of an overstatement.
>Spends whole episode lying about who she is.
>Turns her back on her passions in favor of socializing.
>Finds her friend-group embarrassing
>Only hesitantly decides to stick to them after much arm twisting.
>Still doesn't actually sacrifice anything in doing so because Fancy Pants throws her a bone and she gets their approval anyway, so Rarity has her cake and can eat it too.
And I don't like the moral at the end cause it feels like it doesn't really get internalized. Rarity learns she shouldn't be ashamed of where she comes from or who she is, but learning that doesn't actually change how she acts. She still affects a fake accent, she's still overly concerned with appearing proper and upper-class, and she still ha a tendency to look down on and act judgemental to things she considers not prim and proper enough. I just don't get the impression Rarity actually internalized the moral of the episode, which greatly diminishes it for me.

>>42443616
This board is just /fur/, furries only care about sex

>>42443693
Rarity's passions in life are fancy and etiquette, which Fancy Pants serves to demonstrate are not evil things to be shunned or ashamed of either. RICH BAD is a tired trope. Rarity has emulated the way ponies in old movies speak since she was a foal; that is her accent, however unnatural. It would be so dumb if they flipped her character like a switch.
>she still has a tendency to look down on and act judgemental to things she considers not prim and proper enough
Applejack has a tendency to look down on anything hoity toity or impractical. Twilight is judgemental towards the unexplainable. That's not something that's going to completely go away with friendship lessons, but they do learn to not be rude about it.

What you describe would work better for a foal's story. Somebody that's still molding their personality. A foal that likes rodeos and playing in mud. A foal that has no dreams or aspirations to be prim and proper on her own, but does so because she was bullied at school. That's more Sweetie Belle than Rarity.

Nah, it's Pinkie Pie who has the worst. Applejack episodes are fine when you don't expect her to be perfect.
