No one likes Applejack. More importantly, her character doesn't sell any merchandise. So if they ever remade G4 (and it was miraculously really good somehow), but the Hasbro suits decided Applejack MUST be excluded from the mane cast due to money reasons...... Then what character would you want to replace her with?

You may select anyone, but if you're looking for criteria that make sense, those might be.....

>she must be an Earth Pony female.
>she needs to either represent Honesty, or else a brand new Element that fits nicely beside the other 5 Elements.
>She may not have the same coat color as any of the other mane 5 (unless it's a massively different shade)
>she should follow the same character formula as the others --- Rarity, Rainbow & AJ represent the played-straight stereotypes of what you'd expect a Unicorn/Pegasus/Earth Pony to be. And Twilight, Fluttershy & Pinkie represent someone who defies norms and breaks away from what the stereotype of their race is (Twi is humble and doesn't care about vapid social cliques or hoity-toity superficial bullshit, Pinkie is carefree, childlike and spontaneous rather than grounded, responsible & realistic). So the AJ replacement should ideally serve as a good example of "Earth Pony played straight".

I would replace her with another Applejack

One day Applejack is going to kill you all in your sleep. And you won't realize it because you'll be dead. The last thing you might see if you're lucky, before circadian rhytmn kicks in is an orange figure, standing across your bed.
>>
Her character's selling better nowadays, from what I understand. The 2010s were just a bad time for her archetype.
>>
>>43257892
I like Applejack.
>>
>>43257892
Obviously minty
She gets to be the designated retard
>>
>>43257906
>no one likes AJ
>but I like AJ!!!

Then, logically speaking, you are no one.
>>
Applejack is just plain too silly.
>>
>>43257931
She's never had a single silly impulse in her whole entire life
>>
Next show I want them to just say fuck it and give us a Mane 9 or Mane 12. Why not, it'd be a mess. A fun mess.
>>
>>43257935
No one is sillier than Applejack!

Doesn't her new Chinese plush keep selling out? Might just be from the theming specifically fit AJ but still
>>
>>43258087
It's cute as fuck

Literally who background horse

The Chinese appreciate a hardworking mare.

Ya see, this would be true for anyone else, but /pa/ existed for nearly a decade. So your argument is invalid and you stink.
>>
>>43257892
rude
>>
Applejack is unpopular because she's too lib to appeal to chuds, but also too chud to appeal to libs
>>
>>43258244
Given how Hasbro is constantly behind the times I could see them genuinely make Applejack more bigoted because the 2024 election proved that America's conservative now.
>>
>>43258250
They should just add Posey to the G4 remake if they want that

Anon, I can smell strawberries all the way from here through seven proxies.

Stopped reading. I like Applejack.
>>
>>43258087
Like 75% of all Chinese come from the countryside and lived like farmer peasants making use of everything that wasn't bolted to the ground, aj obviously would resonate with their history more than ivy tower twilight for example
>>
>>43258364
Maybe people don't like her because they don't know how awesome apple orchards and cider are

I saw a black dude say Applejack used to be his waifu but he had to give up on her because people kept joking about him being her slave. Very sad what hate can do to a man who loves a pony.
>>
>>43258535
>Not wanting to be Applejack's slave
Grim.

>>43258535
>Waifufags are spineless and don't actually love their waifu
Many such cases

Applejack was too well written for this show. Too subtle and complex for the average normie to understand.
>>
If Applejack were simply the tallest of the Mane 6 she'd be way way more popular
>>
>>43257892
The japs like her because of YEEHAW GOZAIMASENNNNNN.

I would make a new gen, in a different pony world and with a new cast of characters or maybe rebooted versions of the rest of the mane 5 and then throw a huge curveball with the world building and establish that eons ago, after the rule of the two royal sisters, an earth pony called Applejack was selected to rise as the new princess of the kingdom, which ushered an era of prosperity and harmony. I would make the current era of this new gen be like 5 thousand years later with other rulers in between but the rule of Princess AJ would be one of the most fondly remembered and historically important eras of this new gen.
