I think Twilight never found out what Rarity did to Spike when they were alone at the Boutique
>>43526591Let's get real, if anything happened it's because Twi gave Rarity a fat stack of bits so Spike can feel happy and wanted for once.
>>43526609>Twi gave Rarity a fat stack of bitsAnon, Rarity is supposed to be GENEROUS
Discord should have stayed as a villain, he literally represents the opposite of harmony, he should had become a recurrent villain and the nemesis of Celestia, just like Chrysalis should had been the nemesis of Cadance (instead of randomly make her hate Starligth)
Guys, please can someone tell me how to end the night in Banned from Equestria
>>43526759desu Lauren's original idea about Everfree "expanding" should've made the "natural order" a more interesting "antagonist" of the showhell, who the hell would even represent real, unmanaged nature?

>>43526997Stop being a faggot simp and kick her ass off your network.
>>43526978NTA butthat's literally discordthey even reprise this in the later seasons because the plundervines are literally the first onscreen show of the Everfree expanding and basically exactly the same thing is used for when it starts happening again in S9>desu Lauren's original idea about Everfree "expanding" should've made the "natural order" a more interesting "antagonist" of the showhard agree

>>43527020>controlled by... whom? Nopony?I mean, yeah, I think that was ultimately what Faust was probably going for.
>>43527020... nature is chaos anon>unpredictable weather, you don't know whether it will rain or notchaos>predictable weather that's managed by ponies and comes on a strict scheduleorderponies are order. The natural state of things is chaos, and harmony is putting an end to the chaos, literally slaying the dragon/serpent and bringing peace and prosperity.
>>43527026>nature is chaos anonwrong>harmonyweather is controlled>chaoshttps://voca.ro/1mnav6vnPMfq>natural orderweather follows certain rules that NO ONE CAN CONTROL, aside from that it is pretty unpredictable in its boundariesA comparison I can make is >Dark Souls where there are factions that want endless Age of Fire, various cucks that get high on Darkness, and a couple of sane individuals that want to break the cycle (like Gael + Ari with the Painted World, or (arguably) the Ashen One with finally letting the Fire fade without forcing Darkness on all life)

>>43527047Truly grim.
>>43527048>We are talking about Lauren's original vision for the show, i.e. the one that had Everfree with its "natural" forest being a threat to EquestriaYes, which is what is depicted in S1 of the show and peaks with the climax where the living representation of the natural chaos, Discord, appears as the S1 finale>Discord didn't give a shit about actual rules of reality, making things according to his own silly "rules" (read: recommendations)That's called chaos>while the Everfree is essentially a natural (what you call "chaotic") state of the worldSo, exactly the same thing as discord. You're literally calling it chaotic now, and chaotic in ponies definitionally maps onto Discord, who is literally named as the antonym of Harmony.>weather follows certain rules that NO ONE CAN CONTROL, aside from that it is pretty unpredictable in its boundariesThis is literally the definition of chaos. The reason this is finite and predictable IRL is because we live in a finite, shrinking, deterministic universe. Pony chaos (or magic in general) doesn't seem to have entropy, so chaos is truly unpredictable, but that comes with the territory.
>>43527059>The reason this is finite and predictable IRL is because we live in a finite, shrinking, deterministic universeare you sure about that?
>>43527008Dude I get to say a woman is visiting my place.
>>43527062Oh fuck off you pussywhipped pencilneck faggot. Stop letting her walk all over you
As I said in a previous thread, I'm like 99% sure the point of the 'everywhere becomes like the Everfree' plot would be as a metaphor for growing up. When you're a kid you have clear rules from your parents and from school, but when you grow up you have to accept that the world's a lot more complicated and a lot less in control than you thought it was. Whatever the plotline looks like, I'm pretty sure that's more-or-less what it would be about and that makes Discord not really make sense as a representative of that storyline.
>>43527061>are you sure about that?Used to be. There hasn't been anything to suggest otherwise, though.>deterministic100% true>shrinkingTo be clear, I mean that the amount of information in the universe is getting smaller i.e. that entropy is progressing>finitegoes hoof in hoof with shrinking, and I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise.We don't know that e.g. vacuums don't actually produce energy for sure, but we sure don't have any proof that they do
>>43527065Fuck you. She's an immigrant. They're different.
>>43527073>>deterministic>100% truequantum physics is confirmed unpredictable randomness>We don't know that e.g. vacuums don't actually produce energy for sure, but we sure don't have any proof that they dowasn't it determined recently that the absolute zero of energy/mass is impossible and that there's a minimum amount of matter that's always present?
>>43527070Okay so basicallyyou're retarded and are advocating for the dissolution of harmony and all pony values like friendship, the entire society and every part of the world>As I said in a previous thread, I'm like 99% sure the point of the 'everywhere becomes like the Everfree' plot would be as a metaphor for growing up.Growing up is the bad end that the main cast are meant to prevent?There was never a plan for everything to get swallowed by the Everfree. The fact that it expands is a bad thing and always was in the design of the world and the logic of the show.
>>43527010Seconding this. It's why discord states he was the former ruler of Equestria. The princess backs this up in his introduction talking about his former rule. We know Lauren was also planning an "elements of discord" theme which we can see being built in the original two seasons.
>>43527081>quantum physics is confirmed unpredictable randomness100% falseevery functioning model in quantum physics completely deterministic>wasn't it determined recently that the absolute zero of energy/mass is impossible and that there's a minimum amount of matter that's always present?You realize that that's just confirming that entropy is actually inescapable and false vacuums aren't a thing, then?I didn't hear about this though.
>>43526591The truth is, the day Twilight arrived in Ponyville, Rarity was wearing a perfume that smelled like female dragon pheromones.She heard about the arrival of Twilight and that she had a tiny shota dragon as an assistant, so she prepared herself to trick him into falling in love for her.In public? She acts as if she doesn't care, as if the little dragon were merely a tool, but when no one is around, she drugs little Spikey Wikey and has her ways with him.
>>43527080Listen to yourself talk. You want your problem to stop? Stop being a retard and kick her off your network. You don't owe her anything, you pinhead dipshit.Stop being a brainwashed doormat.

How do plush makers get away with making canon characters? I'm surprised they're so plentiful considering how protective Hasbro has been with the characters in the past
I bet having your hooves filed would feel really good
I want a mare to vore me>Pic unrelated
>>43527661The patterns they make them from are their own & i figure hasbro doesn't really see them as a threat to their own business since they're mostly interested in the mass-produced plush market rather than the niche and specific custom made plush market. It's likely it'd also just be a pain in the ass to get them to stop, for little to no reward. If anything it'd negatively effect hasbro as it means less support for conventions, and would lead to a lot of animosity from fans.>>43528149it probably feels great but you have to get put in a nefarious pony contraption
>>43528520Rarity and Rainbow aren't in the device, Twilight is just there because she likes it (or more more realistically because hers were getting ... painted?)But having somepony really dig into the sulcus and groove of the frog probably would require you to be restrained in the nefarious device, yeah

I learned about (actual spoiler if you don't want to ruin your mood) recursive superAI could potentially be used to create bioweapons and similar extinction event level things or even create them itself last night, and it's been filling me with incredible fear and anxiety ever since to where I don't want to eat and eating food actually tastes bad.for a somewhat pony relation, it feels like that domino effect meme where /ppp/ is the dude and the first domino is "I want to hear my waifu say "I love you!"".now of course I know things would have trended this way no matter what or who happened to start seriously working on things, and I'm aware that some war or climate change would probably have fucked things up before I died naturally anyway, but I guess I wasn't anticipating that it may all come to an end before the end of the decade.really I think the healthiest way to look at things is "what happens happens" and just come to accept that, because what can I or anyone really do?I'm just going to have to poniponi harder, and really do my best to ensure I live a good life in the meantime. sorry if this ruined anybody's night or something, but I'm so upset, I just needed to get it out. no need to respond or anything.
>>43529522I honestly would be elated if the entire world ended.
>>43529522I think it's very unlikely that something big will happen. People say big things will happen all the time, yet rarely they do. The last major event happened in 1945, over 80 years ago
>>43529522Bioweapons appear to be generally easy to design. You don't really need any super AIs, recursive or otherwise, for it. It's making bioweapons without fucking it up and storing them safely that's organizationally and logistically tiresome. I mean no disrespect to all the beautiful research in genomic language models, but it's hard to think of this bioweapon whining as of anything more than a publicity stunt. It wouldn't be the first time Altmans out there try to get more overregulated than printing ink to inflate their importance.>I'm just going to have to poniponi harder, and really do my best to ensure I live a good life in the meantimeAmen to that. I'm still planning to self-medicate with very illegal local model-designed bacteriofaggots in the 2050s, but que sera, sera.

>>43529522>recursive superAI could potentially be used to create bioweapons and similar extinction event level things or even create them itself calm down anon, for Skynet toe exist AI has to actually have intelligenceat the moment all it does is remixing information that's been found on the Internet. No attempt at actually make it *think*, just shoving more of Human knowledge into the same system. I'm pretty sure it's now consuming ita own slop that doesn't generate any great resultsThis whole hysteria about superAIs is astroturfed by /AI companies/ to (A) sell themselves to highest bidder, which are usually megalomaniac psychopaths and (B) to make the market regulated, thus killing their main competition: open, self-hosted models
>>43529757>I really like Unimaginable Consequences' Derpy!same, I really like how "accurately" UnCon characterizes Derpy, it's just a pleasure to watch
Derpy's First voice >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everything else.
>>43530153as a Derpyfag I prefer her SoL voicewith it Derpy sounds less like a joke and more like an actual character of the show
>>43530156The Slice of Life voice feels off, I like the censored Last Roundup voice personally.
>>43530156But the first voice is an actual character of the show
>>43530156I like the more boyish sounding voice, it's a bit more unique, I think if they wanted her to sound less like a joke just making her speak at a normal pace would be all that's needed.
>>43530164Eh, fair enough

I have serious trouble balancing my passions and interests. I'm trying to learn a language, which means I need massive input and to study, but when I'm doing this I can't focus on pony. When I'm focusing on pony, I can't learn about the language. This has been troubling me, I just have too much trouble balancing what is important to me
>>43531098Are llms good enough by now to translate your favorite pone greens to your target language? It sounds like an interesting thing to try but there are inherent risks to it. Especially if the language is rare.

It's "Fancy Pants" or "Fancypants"?
>>43526591The episode where they killed off Spike permanently from the show was a little brutal but I wouldn't lie, the show improved after he was gone.
>>43531357It was the only logical conclusion to his arc after what he did to Twilight.

Is there a clop-artwork repository?
>>43532068Yes, it's called literally any pony booru, my dear newfag.
>>43531148it's [REDACTED] in the Twlight Files
>>43526978My reading is that everfree is not "natural" forest with all the shit that's shown in the S1. Ponies can control nature and forests no problem, but for some reason not this particular forest. Why?Because its lingering effect of the corruption that turned Luna into NMM. Their old castle was in that land before the corruption. Luna was banished, but rest if the corruption seeped into the very soil and kept growing and engulfing the land during the 1000 years it grew, making this weird and honestly alien place in middle of the Equestrian heartlands.
>>43532508>corruption that turned Luna into NMMNot a thingAlso why are you suddenly discarding the S1 finale that Faust wrote?
>>43532530I'm not discarding it? Luna got purged from the said corruption, wasn't that what happened there?Or are you saying that she was such an autistic retard that she got mad because diurnal beings slept during the night? And in that autistic fit tried to destroy the world, and had to be slapped so hard by the rainbow beam that the literal retardation got squeezed out of her?
>>43532543>I'm not discarding it? Luna got purged from the said corruption, wasn't that what happened there?No, this is your fanfic.>Or are you saying that she was such an autistic retard that she got mad because diurnal beings slept during the night?I don't know why you're trying to disingenuously rephrase canon but I suppose it's because you hate MLP.
>>43532543>wasn't that what happened there?>S1 finaleAnon, I
ngl creasing at My Little Boggy kek
my online friends (whom I have a parasocial relationship with) are making fun of me again for liking MLP a little too much What should I do?Unfortunately I shared a little too much private information with them and they won’t let it rest
>>43532548I'm retarded and thought of the finale of the two-parter instead of the season.>>43532530So with this out of the way, how is the finale even relevant to the corruption question?
>>43532562Duel them.
I often think about petting ponies, but get sad knowing they likely wouldn't enjoy you just touching them with your grubby hands.But I'm happy knowing at least Pinkie would be accepting of that instantly.
>>43532570Discord and the Everfree bullshit are the same thing, to the point where the later seasons doing Everfree growing stuff literally reuse Discord assets for the forest.Discord is the anthromorphic (equimorphic?) representation of the problems of the forest/nature.There is no corruption. That's all your fanfic. The Everfree is the original form that still follows Age of Chaos rules. Every time you talk about how wild and chaotic the forest is and how something should have been done with it, what you are actually talking about is the original plan to have Discord as the final antagonist in lauren's S1 draft.
>>43532609Is the Discord as s1 finale villain from the pitch bible or somewhere else?
>>43532582Ponies give eachother headpats sometimes and it seems fine, albeit maybe a little condescending.
>>43532640Somewhere else. It might be in the bible but I don't think it had that strict an outline. Where I heard it was talking about how the S2 opener and S1 finale got swapped around.
>>43532647I just tried to do a quick look, and got the feeling that NMM was the finale villain in the pitch bible. I have vague recall that discord had been mentioned somewhere having something to do with S1, but can't find it.
I wish I knew why summer, specifically, makes me feel so agitated and stressed compared to other seasons.
>>43532562this post gets funnier and funnier as it goes on
>>43529757The fuck is wrong with her hind legs?
>>43533500ask your mom
>>43532562Luckily we would never make fun of you.
I think Sunset would get along with Daybreaker but I can't decide whether Starlight would get along with NMM.Neurotic S0 nobleborn trainwreck Twilight definitely would though. Cadance is probably the hardest done by having the rulers switch out of all the royals.
>>43533525>but I can't decide whether Starlight would get along with NMM.I think because they share similar heartaches of feeling inferior and left out NMM would see her potential and prey on a young Starlight's insecurities to bring her to her side like a sith lord taking on an apprentice.
I know I said this before but I'm really glad they gave Luna the element of laughterIt's kind of sad how little she laughs in Lunamode but I guess she's playing the straight man/unaware fool so she can't really break character to giggle like she does every few seconds as NMM>>43533591Yeah let me rephraseI think Starlight would like NMMI don't know if NMM would like Starlight. It's hard to tell if she actually has a problem with other ponies being powerful or if it's just being practical about the elements. Because what she actually says is that nopony should be more powerful than her, but whether that statement makes her a cunt or not depends on whether or not she thinks she's the strongest for sure (in which case it's fine, it's just arrogance + taking precautions against the weapon that was used on her 1k years ago) or she's actually the type to want to drag others down or smother their potential to protect herself.
I wonder when this will all finally be over.
>>43533628the ride never ends, sissy cock sucking faggot.
>>43533609Luna's a bad fit for Laughter, tbdesu. She's a brooding, self-serious sort. Sunbutt's much more playful and easygoing.
>>43533609>Because what she actually says is that nopony should be more powerful than herIsnt it rather nopony should be more respected/popular than her? NMM would gladly work with anyone who submits to and worships her and her moon.
>>43533642I don't know how you can watch Luna Eclipsed and not get the impression that she understands trying to be funny>She's a broodingOnly while she's in traumamode, and even then she's thinking about laughing. It's just that Luna doesn't think she deserves to be happy/laugh in present night.>self-serious sortHow the heck is Luna self serious?
>>43533661>Isnt it rather nopony should be more respected/popular than her?It's very specifically>Nightmare Moon: Nopony in my kingdom but me should possess a magic powerful enough to change time.
>>43533642>Luna's a bad fit for Laughter, tbdesu.Yeah but she has a cuter laugh than her sister which means she's the best fit!
>>43533671Most of her light-hearted scenes in Luna Eclipsed are played for laughs at her expense to show that she doesn't really 'get' how to overcome the public's perception of her and integrate with modern Equestria. They're more like spaghetti spillages than demonstrations of her being fun-loving. As for being self-serious, she's (initially) pretty anal about presenting herself as capital-R Royalty, shouty Royal Canterlot Voice and all, and her next focus episode is all about how she's tormented by guilt over the whole Nightmare Moon thing. I can't think of any scenes (unless they happen after S6, never watched past that since I'm not a faggot) where we see her chilling out and not taking herself seriously, whereas Celestia gets plenty of those. Either way, Celly's still the best fit for Laughter. I dunno what your highly elaborate Luna headcanon looks like, but I don't think it bears out in the show.
>>43533698>(unless they happen after S6, never watched past that since I'm not a faggot)S7 has some good episodes and S8 has exactly one good episode, you should check them out
>>43533675It's depends on whether NMM is satisfied with just possessing the weapons of mass destruction for herself or if she sees any unicorn skilled enough to use those forbidden scrolls as a threat.
>>43532562Cry, and spill your seed to rainbow dash.
>>43533698>As for being self-serious, she's (initially) pretty anal about presenting herself as capital-R Royalty, shouty Royal Canterlot Voice and allAnon, until like at most 5-10 years before S1 starts Celestia was such a proprietary cunt that the pony closest to her literally didn't know she had a sense of humor. That's just how princesses are meant to be. Luna genuinely thinks she's putting the ponies at ease and doing what they want by presenting herself for worship.>I can't think of any scenes (unless they happen after S6, never watched past that since I'm not a faggot) where we see her chilling out and not taking herself seriouslyDid you even watch Luna Eclipsed? The entire last two minutes is a continuous Luna prank stream, ending with her outpranking Rainbow Dash (and simultaneously protecting another pony from Rainbow's prank).Luna plays up the seriousness a lot because it's needed to make the jokes land but her fundamental character as show in S2E4 is both saving a colt from the apple bobbing vat and then later hiding in there herself to threaten and spook somepony when there's no danger.

>>43526533Who is this in the OP picture?
>>43535776>hey please write anthro Twilight raping Anon and then they have a relationship dramai want this but not anthro, and not anon.
>>43535782I just don't like that sort of thing. When I read Winning Pony, the constant retarded dramas brought the fic down MASSIVELY. It ended with Blossomforth and Derpy just accepting that Kicker is a massive slut and WILL fuck other mares, something they should have accepted from the beginning, and I don't think Kicker as a character became any meaningfully different but I started speedreading the fic at one point. I wish it was about Kicker simply cuddling and loving random mares because moments like this were really sweet.Also do we [really] need Twilight to be anthro?
>>43535784Pinkie Pie
>>43535808>Also do we [really] need Twilight to be anthro?idk SW, are wings worse than b&thro?
>>43526533When you really think about it this world is a nightmare, what kinda Pony God creates a world where you have to raise the sun and moon and bring in the seasons manually either this planet doesn't spin or it's a flat pony earth
>>43535836the sky is a false fermament created millenia ago by a single, incredibly powerful wizard. nopony knows who this wizard was or why they did it, but everypony's used to the fake sky by now, and the only real downside is that the monarchs have to spend a couple minutes each day messing with it, so it's not that big of a deal.
>>43535829I don't know, I'm not a Twifag, but the caveat is that everypony would be anthros, not just Twilight. A big reason I don't like anthro is the same reason I don't like humanizations: because there are many, many media that features anime girls (in fact there's a whole genre dedictated to MLP-like shows) and anthros, that would make my horse show less unique. If I wanted to see anthros, I'd go and play Sonic or watch the kino OVA. Also mares are perfection and why would you need to change perfection?

>>43536006>you are too autistic with your SH hate, calm down manIf I had to excuse it, it was a rushjob just like KC, and badly needed one more year in development to polish it up a bit and come up with different campaigns for different teams instead playing it, replaying it in easy mode, replaying it in hard mode and replaying it but with objectives. My internal autistic sonictard also will never accept MS talking. He should only rather rarely make robit sounds like in the based OVA.>US or JP?JP of course my man.

>>43536092Ponies are literally small horses. Even if they really are just horsy aliens who coincedentally happen to call themselves ponies, and thus don't have exact same anatomy to Earth's equines (they canonically barf), you underestimate mankind's love for ̶f̶r̶e̶e̶d̶o̶m̶ boobs. I think it's the actually the main reason behind anthro ponies' popularity, even though they really don't have what normal ponies already do and are just humanizations but better.
>>43536130>and are just humanizations but bettersay thatagain
>>43536132Anthros are better than humanizations solely on basis of having more pony (aka perfection). There, I said it. However, there's no reason to like both when mares are already perfect the way they are, and come off as inability to move on from previous preferred form of media (furfags with anthros and weebs with humanizations), or the human woman form, and inability to cope with their differences.
>>43536143>Anthros are better than humanizations solely on basis of having more pony (aka perfection).desu b&thro is more often than not worse than humanization solely because it's 95% of the time just for porn also >nohooves even when you could have had hooves>However, there's no reason to like both when mares are already perfect the way they aretrve
>>43535918You must love Adventure 2, I do too it's just natrual all cool kids love it!
>>43536159I feel it's that way because the appeal of anthros is in fact coom, while the humanization appeal is "wut if poniez wuz ackshually h00manz??? xDDD liek in mai altai cartoonz or cryven universe xDDD #BlackPinkiePie".If the average brong wants to goon to the "more human ponies" he faps to b&thro and makes b&thro content. You're delusional if anthros and furfaggotry in general are not normalfag central, if anything it's the normalfag cope opinion: closer to ponies but not horsy enough, while NSFW humanizations are for professional weebs.>>43536171I loved Adventure 2. It's the only game where you can play as Eggman too (aside from maybe some fangames).
>>43536171>You must love Adventure 2I dont.
Funny how IDW has both mlp and Sonic under their belt.
>>43536198>while the humanization appeal is "wut if poniez wuz ackshually h00manz??? xDDD liek in mai altai cartoonz or cryven universe xDDD #BlackPinkiePie".desu modern slop like Black Ponka is just Xitter being Xitter, humanized before a certain point EqG used to be more about fucking with the format (pic rel) or just drawing them because of inability to do hoers stuff

>>43536159>>43536198I like booba and hooved feet are interesting in sexual stuff. There's no real point for SFW b&thro stuff, Equestria is objectively worse if hands are present in-universe.

>>43536941I don't know why, but a well-developed thick human thigh and calf which ends into slim aesthetic hoof instead of gross monkey feet makes my own monkey brain go brrrrr. Like I said, pony form in the series is perfection but I'm not a perfect man and like my mammaries. Sometimes on crotch, sometimes on more familiar spot. Also I like lingerie and very few pony artists bothers with that.
>>43536960>Also I like lingerie and very few pony artists bothers with that.desu I think it might be a problem with socks already being "enough" t. find socks to be enough for my tastes
Even if it's from Season 9, I like that Spike shows how much he has grown up, back with Nightmare Moon or Discord he would fall asleep or get too scared to be part of the action, yet in the final battle he's not just part of the action but after being protected by Rarity he protects her back against an overpowered Chrysalis, I really liked that he wasn't treated as a sidekick joke, but part of the main characters.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxJpe_MJoCw
>>43535925>This thread was moved to >>>/trash/85491473based?
I wonder how many ponies there areLike what the population of a city is and how many farms are attached to a city and stuff. Ponies are post-industrial so they're capable of sustaining whatever population density but their actual economy is weird.
>>43537069>Ponies are post-industrialDon't think about it too hard, or you might notice how absurd and impossible this world is, and how little the writers actually cared.
>>43537078>the magical world where they have magic is magicaloh nowhat a revelationWhy do you hate whimsy and fantasy and worldbuilding so much, anon?
>>43537080Because thinking everything through industry and resources is retarded.
>>43537139You're the one having a meltdown over industry and resources because an anon wrote a throwaway line about how the ponies are reminiscent of but not the same as a societal model that we know the population density for when thinking about the population density
>>43537142I'm malding and melting down like pig iron in a converter, operated by sweaty and strong earth pony mares.
There was a picture of a relatively small Luna suckling on Celestia (in a field?) that was posted recently that I can't find in the boorus and have been looking for>>43537171hot:^
>>43537171im actually operating it so you are gay.
>>43537069>Ponies are post-industrialare you sure about that?
>>43537252Anon, I regret to inform you but you are a mare.>>43537348Yes.They're shown to have more advanced industrial technology than we have in S1, they just don't really use it because the powers that be consider the rustic stuff more fashionable.
>>43537353>They're shown to have more advanced industrial technology than we have in S1[citation needed] the only thing I can recall is a "gigatech" gag from Feeling Pinkie Keen
>>43537358I'm wrong it's S2. Don't know why I thought this ep was S1.Cider squeezy is farm to table industrial equipment that fits on the back of a van with automated QC stuff that the machine vision/weight/etc. methods we used at the time of the episode couldn't begin compare to. 2026 Amazon would be able to build a machine the size of a small warehouse to compete with what it does an even then the squeezy would be a better machine.But I think you might be misinterpreting my statement anyway considering the tangent I have lead us on. Post-industrial means that the service sector generates more wealth than manufacturing, and if you poll pony jobs per capita and especially when you compare them to how much of the economy they represent the service sector makes up the majority of the ponies that we see. In a place like Manehattan or Canterlot we don't see village ponies coming in to sell their goods making up the majority or even a significant portion of vendors; Rarity and Applejack are the odds ones out when they're doing it and Rarity is aiming to permanently move into the city anyway. Nor are they an industrial society; almost nopony that we see works in manufacturing.It's possible that manehattan has most ponies working in factories offscreen like it's the late 1800s and that makes up the bulk of the population, but that goes back to my original question about how many ponies there are meant to be and what the proportions of where they live. Obviously they don't HAVE to do that kind of industrial society because they can just build more or less automated machines if they want to, and we really don't see very many farm ponies (there are way more ponies in Ponyville then in the entire set of all apples, and Appleloosa seems to be a considerably bigger town with again, not that much farmer density).Like in a rural village on the very fringes less than 40% of ponies are attached to agriculture. That is NOT a pre-industrial society.
Holy fuck I'm wasted
>>43537373>But I think you might be misinterpreting my statement anyway considering the tangent I have lead us onnah I was genuinely asking what were you referring to as "advanced tech" in S1As for your post I feel like a lot of Faustian elements point to 1900s, with most of the inconsistencies just being :writers.room:F&F episode you brought up is an example if this: It is (I) known for having questionable writing quality and (II) does have impossible tech prominently featured
>>43537410There are wireless headsets in Faust's S1.Do you consider FPK and F&F both I & II?
>>43537410As for your post I feel like a lot of Faustian elements point to 1900s, with most of the inconsistencies just being :writers.room:I mean they just don't, and the fact that you have to pick and choose because the high fantasy society doesn't map onto a low tech level from recent modernity just means that it doesn't map onto that low tech level, not to those things being mistakes>F&F episode you brought up is an example if this: It is (I) known for having questionable writing qualityIt's not lol. It's like the second best applejack episode in the show.
>>43537415>It's not lol. It's like the second best applejack episode in the show.No? Leap of Faith is a better AJ and F&F episode than Super Cider Squeezy 9001 yeah I don't remember the full name of the bloody thingThe episode is AJ being retarded and winning only because her "foes" got momentary more retarded, it's absurd
>>43537413>Do you consider FPK and F&F both I & II?didn't you notice me bringing up FPK >>43537358 ? KekYeah the episode is just more "cartoony" than others (it has the classic anvil fall gag and Twilight literally being on fire from anger), having anachronisms doesn't feel that major for that episode
>>43537446That post didn't seem to take a pro/anti stance on FPK, just wanted to see if you were consistent.Personally I enjoy the cartoony aspects of the show a lot especially when ponies overreact and do silly things. A lot of fans seem to hate that sadly.
>I got warned for telling someone to go kill himselfThis place really is just reddit now.
>>43537446I mean ultimately if your argument is you don't like how the show actually is then there's no point jumping in when people start talking about what the show is actually like.
>>43537461>Personally I enjoy the cartoony aspects of the show a lot especially when ponies overreact and do silly things. A lot of fans seem to hate that sadly.sad but truesome fans just don't like getting reminded that they are watching A CARTOON
>some fans just don't like getting reminded that they are watching A CARTOONfrfr write what's on my mind: we really shouldn't call these people fans, since they don't actually like the showIt's something that was more true in S1 than S8 but did still remain true through every season. If you have a problem with it then you have a problem with FiM.

>>43537480>since they don't actually like the showSo like 80% of this board with their Twilicorn and late season hate?
>>43537486https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/43536422/#43536924
>>43537490>So like 80% of this board with their Twilicorn and late season hate?I mean first of all yes, a lot of people are performative haters and never watched the show and are just saying stuff to front about being part of a culture they have no connection to because they think it represents their values.But more generally no because you can hate everything from S3+ and still like S1-2. Whereas it's impossible to hate that the cartoonishness of ponies and still like episodes from any point. Like if you hated the fact that they were horsies you could still be a real fan of S5+, as horrible as that is to say, because they're only occasionally horsies and basically never once the seasons get late enough. Whereas while FPK is a high point of it, the cartoon physics and magic of the world have been elements from episode one and continue to be elements all the way through to at least ending of the end P2.I actually don't hate Twilicorn but I hate that they retired the original unicorn Twilight design and didn't do anything for the other mane 6.I've thought about this before but if you gave me creative control at the time and mandated the transformation I'd have all of the mane 6 get altforms but make them a temporary thing like the rainbows (more should have been done with that, those designs were great), and then do a character episode about how Twilight never turns hers off and eventually she learns to go back to being just unicorn twilight again when she's not at work.
>>43537490>80% of people don't like eating shitUhhh okay
>>43537493I don't see a problem with your post getting deletedjust saying "OP is a fag" or "kill yourself" is off-topic, replies of this nature don't have any substance in them unless you actually *specify* why the other anon should join the 41%
>>43537510>(more should have been done with that, those designs were great)IMO they were pretty tacky should've just made more fancy dresses for M6 to wear, their first Gala set was kino

>>43537525Sure pal. Keep licking that janny boot.
>>43537522I don't see we can't have both.>IMO they were pretty tackySee I like that they're over the top because it designates them clearly as special designs just for the lightshows. If we're going to have dumb action scenes they can at least give us pretty ponies to look at. It's like supersaiyan or super sonic. The fact that it looks dumb isn't a problem because it's only meant to be shown in sequences where you kind of turn your brain off and accept the toy commercial. You can argue the show shouldn't have that at all but as a toy commercial I think it's a sensible approach (and having clear setpiece stuff to sell would allow the rest of the show to not be as infected with it) and things had already been clearly set as including significant adventure/action elements by the end of S2.>should've just made more fancy dresses for M6 to wear, their first Gala set was kinoOh absolutely. But I want the base M6 wearing them, not Twilicorn. You can still have Twilicorn in the show but I want the purple noodle when she's wearing her dress.
>>43537526>>43537516Bet you two don't even like the show!>>43537510The one thing G% (movie only, the rest is garbage) did right was to give that temporary and ethereal alicornification to Sunny, kinda like the powered up alt forms you just talked about.

>>43526533>>43534529Important question: when you suspect an anon of being an femanon how would you go on to out "him" other than by claims of triggering schizzo or as another anon did, collecting posts across tumblr, xitter, and discord to generalize a pattern?

>>43537558If you weren't a retarded autist you'd stop fixating on the private identities of anonsLike literally post your balls or gtfo I dunno what to say anon it just doesn't matter.

>>43537543>The one thing G% (movie only, the rest is garbage) did right was to give that temporary and ethereal alicornification to Sunny, kinda like the powered up alt forms you just talked about. That would had been so much better for Twilight.YeahA lot of the movie feels like someone trying to do the best with what they've got and what they had wasn't very much and contained a lot of poison, so I do think that there was some good work. The movie had some good designs and fairly cute moments and some clever ideas for how to present the ponies.With the much more stretchy, gumlike ponies of FiM I think just literally transforming the pony with physical extra wings is fine though, they don't need to be a metaphor. Twilight can just gain and lose wings.
>>43537570I know who you are, your IP is from lucknow.
>>43537570Haha, yeah! Call him incel next!
>>43537573>literally transforming the pony with physical extra wings is fineIt's not about wacky stretchy cartoony things, pinkie doing physically impossible stretch is really nothing. Or Twilight having anvil dropped on her as a punchline. Twilicorn broke the essence of the things on an ontological level, if I'm using this big boy word correctly here.
>>43537587There are multiple conversations here. Inside the existing post S2 frame, Princess Can Dance already broke the ontology of alicorns. They were no longer two or unique, so putting wings on a unicorn temporarily is fine. Though doing nothing to show earth ponyness on twilight feels like a missed opportunity but I also don't know what they could do. The whole thing is kind of stupid really.The actual framing of MMC, rushed though it was, is that the wings were the representation of the fact that Twilight now understood harmony. I'm okay with that actually; Cadance understands love magic and deliberately uses it, knowingly, the same way that Celestia theoretically used the elements in the past and the way that Twilight actually used the elements against Discord. If we accept that Cadence is an alicorn, then Twilight being an alicorn is no greater harm, notwithstanding the questions about her existing design and the mane 6.My problems with shelving unicorn Twi I listed above and I didn't really get into it but you already know how it caused all sorts of issues with breaking up the unity of the group. I'd have preferred a pegasus Cadance but that's a totally different conversation.
>>43537041Why didn't Chrysalis try to absorb Spike's obvious love for Rarity here for another buff? Is she stupid?
>>43533791>>43533848She does ignore >>43533804
>>43537543I thoroughly enjoyed both seasons.
>>43537540>It's like supersaiyan or super sonicSS1 (and SSonic) actually look good though.
>>43537612>Is she stupid?When the fight ended and they lost, Chrysalis was the moron who started screaming about eternal vengeance while Cozy and Tirek were terrified, it was Chrysalis's own words that ultimately condemned them to be turned into statues.Yes, Chrysalis is fucking stupid.
>>43537602>Though doing nothing to show earth ponyness on twilight feels like a missed opportunityEarth ponies did done dirty right before it even began, in the pitch bible by Faust. There's written that Celestia has both unicorn AND pegasus features. No words about muhh earfs.>Princess Can Dance already broke the ontology of alicorns.It really did, and I was angry about that even back in the day, like I'm still now.>If we accept that Cadence is an alicornI don't, and due to that I can't accept twilicorn either in any manner. It's simply just unpalatable. But now this went into full blogpost by me, and we have to just agree to disagree on this part. No hard feelings, except against the writers who made it happen. Fuck them.
>>43537622>Chrysalis was the moron who started screaming about eternal vengeance while Cozy and Tirek were terrifiedBlack mommy fighting til the bitter end is based, actually.
>>43537631It might be based, but not smart.
>>43537602>If we accept that Cadence is an alicornThere should be a concentrated effort to edit Cadance art so that she's a pegasus or a unicorn, or both.
Belly.That's it.
>>43537633>Cadance art so that she's a pegasus or a unicorn, or both.I believe the original story was that she was a pegasus that Celestia turned into an Alicorn for... I dunno... for being a descendant to Princess Amore and feeling that the crystal empire was coming back and it was going to need a princess or some bullshit.I dunno, it was stupid.
>>43537638>Celestia transforms a pegasus filly into an alicorn to groom into being a ruler>"Hey there, kid. Wanna see some magic shit?"
>>43537640A princess grooming a little kid? never seen that one before.
>>43537624>Earth ponies did done dirty right before it even began, in the pitch bible by Faust.I mean yeah. I like S1 because of Hasbro interference to a large extent: Pinkie being an earf is 100% on Hasbro and it was combining that with Faust's vision that gave us what we got. If she worked on it by herself we'd have gotten something a lot closer to the old generations.>I don't, and due to that I can't accept twilicorn either in any manner.Like I said, that's a different conversation. I'm perfectly happy with a world where there's only two alicorns, and in that world I agree with you - if Cadance isn't an alicorn, then Twilight shouldn't ever be one even temporarily. I still think the rainbow forms are a good idea (sell more toys) but Twilight's definitely, absolutely shouldn't have wings if it would make her the first character to have wings + horn outside of the sisters (and non-ponies).>>43537622>Yes, Chrysalis is fucking stupid.Correct, but she's fucking based. First of her kin, last of the kind, hater through and through till the end.>it was Chrysalis's own words that ultimately condemned them to be turned into statues.Nah, that's all because of Discord's evil plot. He's especially steamed by the fact that the LoD literally figured out friendship, which he hates more than anything else.
>>43537658I am quite sure that if Chrysalis had surrendered instead of vowing eternal revenge, the punishment would not have been so severe, I mean, maybe Tartarus yeah, but that would been still better than stone.
>>43537670No?The punishment was decided by Discord. It was always going to be the worst thing he could get away with.
>>43537675The punishment was decided AFTER Chrysalis claimed revenge, and Discord only suggested it, Celestia and Luna were just okay with it because they are as fucked as him.
>>43537636OCbros...
>>43537679Celestia and Luna are just victims of a devilish Discord plotThey don't have the elements and they can't beat him without them.>The punishment was decided AFTER Chrysalis claimed revengeYeah man that's why Glimglam and Shimsham are both statues in the gardensoh wait
I think a lot of bronies would like Unicorn Academy and Spirit Riding Free if they gave them a shot.
>>43538081>NiggerNo thanks, bro
>>43538081Buy an ad.
>>43538084Only the one in all fairness.
>>43538081They look like they would do unspeakable things to their horses.
I think if Cadance asked the divorce, Shining Armor would kill himself.
>>43538092So same as bronies then.
>>43537602>They were no longer two or uniqueThey weren't really unique though, Cadance changes nothing.You should be more angry at Faust herself for not properly establishing Luna and Celestia in the lore in the way you like. If 2 alicorns was an actual rule of the world like the 6 elements are, that would have stopped McCa-... It would have stopped Hasbro from turning Cadance into an alicorn.How would you rewrite S1-2 to cement Celestia and Luna as the only two alicorns? Would you make them immortal? Gods? Rewriting the storybook opening is probably enough.The change I would like most to signify that Celestia and Luna are actually unique is for the moon to ONLY be controllable by Luna. Celestia, ruler of the sun, should NOT have control over Luna's domain. With Luna incapacitated, that moon should have been stuck. The harmony that the two used to represent together should have disappeared and Equestria should have suffered the repercussions instead of having 1000 years of peace. Celestia taking over the moon destroys any uniqueness that existed between them and basically renders Luna completely irrelevant, she never needed to exist since Celestia can do everything herself.

>>43538081I thought unicorns piping niggers was just the degenerate flavour of the month, not that it was based on anything.Silly me I guess.
>>43536198>I loved Adventure 2. It's the only game where you can play as Eggman too based. SA2 eggman is his best role in the series. Also Sonic R lets you play as eggman and eggman robot
>>43537415>It's not lol. It's like the second best applejack episode in the show.The problem with the Apple family's cider at the start of the episode is that their production capabilities cannot meet demand. The end of the episode does not resolve this at all; next year's harvest will face the exact same supply issue (unless the rest of the mane 6 help again, but why wouldn't they in the first place if they were able to?). The Apples could have tried negotiating a deal with F&F, but instead ran them out of town over petty family pride

>destroys any uniqueness that existed between them and basically renders Luna completely irrelevantSame with the earth ponies. Faust had great initial vision but she needed some wrangling. Too bad the wrangling was done by the fuckers who just wanted a pink princess pony. Feels like the Luna holding dream domain is post-hoc rationalisation and I don't think they established anything what happened during Luna's absence? Can't remember the dialogue in that episode too well.There's so much cool shit that could been made if they'd just established this just tiny bit more firmly, like if they had an universe that made sense in its own way as fantastical pony realm, instead of just coming up with shit as they went.
>>43538760Fug meant to reply to >>43538456
>>43538456> the moon to ONLY be controllable by Luna. Celestia, ruler of the sun, should NOT have control over Luna's domain.my headcannon is that Celestia having to take on the burden of moon duties for 1000 years took its toll on her powers, resulting in the modern Celestia that we see in the show, who doesn't possess the elements of harmony anymore and jobs to every single villain everI know that Twilicorn was the product of Hasbro meddling, but, from the viewpoint that Celestia is an aging demigod whose magic has become too weak to protect her kingdom, it would make sense that she would select Twilight as her pupil to be trained in magic and friendship and groomed to inherit the throne. Just ask, what was the whole point of keeping Twilight in ponyville after she had thwarted NMM?
>>43538764She also knew NMM was gonna comeback, but forced her to make friendsas top priority.Ether she didn't care about NMM or thought Twiggipiggi could prove herself worthy.Or or she didn't want the new princess to be antisocial.
>>43538768Celestia knew that she wouldn't be able to stop NMM, so she sent Twilight to ponyville to procure enough power (via friendship-induced chemical reactions which create vast amounts of magical energy) to do so in her stead. Friendship, not books/antisocial tendencies, is how the most powerful magic is created in this universe (magic powerful enough to defend Equestria on a regular basis)
>>43538760>Same with the earth poniesPretty funny how G5 made earth ponies OP and nerfed the hell out of unicorns>G6's m4 has 2 pegasiCould it finally be the pegasi's turn?
Everyone says how OP unicorns are with their magic, and they’re completely correct, but I feel like they’re balanced out by the fact that all the most powerful unicorns have mental problemsTwilight is manic and autistic, starlight is a depressive psycho, and sunburst has whatever issues that caused him to flunk magic school and end up as a shut-in. Same for moondancer. Trixie is a petty, insecure bitch. If any of these unicorns got over their psychotic shortcomings, they could achieve greatnessMost normal unicorns, like Rarity, don't suffer much. This is because most unicorns really only use their magic for convenient telekinesis, not complicated time travel spells. Only when unicorns start getting totally sooped with magic powers do their minds start to betray them.There’s evidence for this in that evil magic amulet that Trixie used--it granted immense magical power in exchange for the user's mental stability. Fittingly, its user was defeated not by greater magic, but by the wielder's own mental shortcomingsStated another way, imagine if Twilight just had a crossbow or a flintlock pistol she could have shot starlight with in the S5 finale. Maybe a magic barrier could block a bullet, but the user’s reaction time sure as hell isn’t going to be fast enough to erect one before they get perforated by a metal ball. Healing magic (if it even exists)? Ok, good luck keeping your cool long enough for that spell while your lung is filling with blood and you’re in shock from the pain of your rib shatteringIf earth ponies stopped listening to country music and locked in, technology could surpass magic because the most powerful unicorns would be too busy infighting and dick-measuring amongst themselves to stop them (or they would be more busy obsessing over useless cosmopolitan culture like all over Canterlot). Unfortunately, only the Flimflam brothers (unicorns) seemed interested in creating technology. There's also that scientist background earth pony, but he's more of a gag character akin to Twilight making an occasional joke about quantum physics
>>43538857G5's retarded growth stomp can hardly be called good move on world building wise. Unicorns were op and literal chosen tribe in G4 overall. I think the initial idea of unicorns knowing spell or two related to their cutie mark, along with light telekinesis was the preferred sweet spot.
>>43538755I forgot about all the racing games despite emulating Drift 1+2 like a week ago. Jesus.So outside of racan + Olympics and mobileshit he also has Fighters and 1/4 of Chronicles (he's only playable in the true final battle in SA3).
I received a warning for posting this on /ic/ just because some ponies are visible in the blurry background. This is too far.
>>43539194Bruh, you intentionally framed the image that way.
>>43539296>Bruh, you intentionally framed the image that way.I didn't notice that I posted ponies until I posted the image and by then it was too late. I was in a rush to take it, poor Sofie got deleted with them :L
>>43539306>I was in a rush to take itYou *definitely* were not. >>43539296 is right, that framing is very deliberate.

>>43539364gosh, you people...
>In season 9, they left Discord's magic power because is too unstable and they cannot control it>In season 4, Tirek ate Discord's magic and could control it perfectly fineDid I miss something
>>43539398Tirek can't use its chaotic properties. Pinkie is the only one with any chance of mastering it.
>>43539406He still grew in power and size after drinking his powers:https://youtu.be/AHE4_Ob2eYs?si=6SL03zw525767Jeu&t=94and LATER the bell had the magic of Celestia and Luna inside too, which would had been a lot more power for the villains to have.
>>43539398>Anon discovers the shitty mid/late-season writing
>>43539413He can make Some use of the energy, but his body doesn't have the capacity to fully make use of its benefits.

I hate that I'm mentally ill. I hate that being confused, being myself led to so much pain. I hate that I cant let go. The highlight of my week is getting pony toys to play with, around 50 or so. I was ecstatic. So many good brushables that I didn't have yet ^_^Lately I've been trembling more than usual, I don't know if it's brain damage catching up to me or anxiety.I avoid listening to the soundtrack now, it makes me cry. Feeling helpless like it just happened but it was years ago and you've moved on; you post almost daily. bragged about what you did to me on one of your socials, never deleted the post. There's nothing I can do. theres nothing I can do to get away from youyou touched me in the bathroom, you choked me on the couch. ponys in my backpack, homework on the table.... Lurking feels perverse. I know who I'm looking at, saved your picture so I'd never forget. Just want to enjoy mlp again without the trauma.
>>43539427you sound very tense, Anon. i'm sorry. I wish there was something I could do that would make you feel better.can I rape you?
>>43539429maybe we can meetup and ill put a gun to my head with urs right next to mine to see if we can kill 2 birds w 1 stone !
>>43539424But he can still take it and grow in power, and they can take the ALICORN magic from Celestia and Luna, they decided to not use that magic take BECAUSE Discord's magic was still inside the bell, hell at any point Tirek could had put the chaos magic back in the bell like Cozy did.I just think it was stupid to leave magic inside the bell, specially Celestia and Luna's magic.
>>43539438Well yeah if villains were competent they'd win. Remember how utterly braindead NMM was in the premiere?
>>43539306>poor Sofie got deleted with them :LYour thread was moved to /trash/, where it reached p10 and died
>>43539440Then there's Discord placing his only weakness in Twilight's house instead of another dimension or the other side of the world.
How often do you guys watch ponies?
>>43539443>Your thread was moved to /trash/, where it reached p10 and diedI know, I was talking about the image showing my room, not the thread itself. It had sofie in it too. Sofie is an oc I made if anyone is wondering.
>>43539472at least once a week
>>43539459But with Discord you have the excuse that he's a chaotic insane creature that his own chaos would end up fucking him up, it is in his chaotic nature.
>>43539476/trash/ thread didn't have OP pic removedwhat do you mean by "deleted"?
>>43539459There's a few potential reasons for this. A) Discord sees it all as a big game, and the game wouldn't be much fun if the opponent couldn't possibly win. He needs to be able to at least claim that it's technically winnable, even if he's willing to bend the rules to make it as difficult as possible. B) There's no way to guarantee that a straightforward 'bury them at the center of the planet' kind of solution would pan out, since chaos magic is anything but straightforward. The more reliable method would be to break the spirits of the bearers and render them incapable of wielding the elements in the first place. Breaking Twilight's faith in friendship needed an explicit demonstration that her friends have abandoned her, which needed her to try and fail to use the Elements, which are obviously friendship-powered. No carebear beam means no friendship, therefore, no wielder. C) That'd be an exceptionally boring way of doing things.Discord's RoH scheme is, paradoxically, the best-planned plot to conquer Equestria in the entire show. Our boy was pretty smart before someone came along and lobotomised him moments before the S4 finale.
>>43539494Cool! As for me, I watch it everyday usually.
>>43539427>you touched me in the bathroom, you choked me on the couch. ponys in my backpack, homework on the table....Unf, wished that was me
>>43539500Not the OP pic, it was the pic that showed my bedroom. This one was the one that got removed >>43539194The character scan in pic rel was the OP image, not the bedroom image.
>>43539504>As for me, I watch it everyday usually.just like Ice Age movies?
>>43539509>The character scan in pic rel was the OP image, not the bedroom image.oh alright, sorry for derpying this up
>>43539515I do watch ponies everyday but not the Ice Age films as only 5 have been made and I watched them. I still like to watch them sometimes though when I have nothing to do. I have episodes of MLP saved on my computer from a long time ago but I watch Ice Age via DVD.>But what about Ice Age 6?I know about it and I'll be watching it in theaters when it releases in 2027
>>43539518>I know about it and I'll be watching it in theaters when it releases in 2027are you sure that they are gonna have it in Jordanian theaters?
>>43539523>are you sure that they are gonna have it in Jordanian theaters?Why would they not? Theaters exist in Jordan and I've been to one multiple times throughout my life.
>>43539496>>43539503>its chaos, logic has no place hereI get that, but it's not very satisfying when everything only works out or not due to randomness. It's not the tension kind of random either like in gambling games where there's strategy and mind games involved, Twilight did nothing to outplay Discord making it a hollow victory.
>>43539526>Why would they not?Not all movies get properly distributed to all countries of the world, and I'm not sure if Ice Age is a "high priority" for whoever the hell owns BlueSky IPs these days>Theaters exist in Jordan and I've been to one multiple times throughout my life.you sound like you're really trying to paint yourself and/or your country as being "normal" kek
>>43539538If they don't play it in my local cinema, I'll buy a DVD of Ice Age 6 after it has been released.>you sound like you're really trying to paint yourself and/or your country as being "normal" kekI don't know if you're calling me, Jordan as a whole or both as strange or not. What is consered "normal" to you? Also, Is Derpy ur fav pony by any chance?
>>43539506likewise I wish it was you or truly anyone but me. I hope someday you're as mentally decrepit as me, held hostage in your mind by something that happened years ago with nobody to pull you out of it.Wishing for something that I've rejected, I'm better than you. You're only worth the sloppy seconds of the world.
>>43539532Nothing random about it, funnily enough. It's not like he just chucked them into the hedge maze and hoped they'd wig out on their own. It's all precisely planned and actioned. With the exception of the Fluttershy gag (patient zero for the Fluttercord epidemic, utterly radioactive scene), they all behave pretty much exactly as he plans for them to, without too much plot contrivance, right up until the Celestia ex machina. If anything, it only feels deterministic because they gave him an IQ too high.
>>43526533I watched the second More Herson video on MLP's decline, it was mostly fine (despite only spending a quarter of the video actually talking about the topic on the title) until he went "Ehm ackhtually, the show stopped being good after season 2 but this piece of crap episodes are good because they follow my flawed extreme definition of what every MLP episode should be".He later sucks Larson's cock (nothing inherently wrong with that, I also do it) while throwing shit at Berrow for "not actually caring about the show's continuity" despite Larson himself saying she was constantly pointing out what premises and concepts have already been done to other writers, not to mention she stuck around to work as writer and story editor for Pony Life and as showrunner for Make your Mark. Heck, she even got hired to write some episodes for DC Superhero Girls, another show created by Lauren Faust with people from the early seasons of MLP, like M.A Larson and Cindy Morrow. But nope, according to this retard, Confalone is "le good one" because his episodes are "le character centric", despite him being barely above Berrow in terms of writing, with his only notable great contribution being The Saddle Row Review, which mostly only works because of the direction and concept rather than the story itself. Maybe Confalone could've done much better if he was more focused on working on good shit for the show instead of whining about how le evil critics are below him being a writer is "more effort" than being a critic, appealing to effort and authority as fallacies.I should've known it was too good to last given some of the questionable points he made on his previous video.
>>43539540>I don't know if you're calling me, Jordan as a whole or both as strange or not.well you're certainly *not* normal, but I'm not sure about your homeland>What is consered "normal" to you?not having sex with plushies should be the basis for being normal>Also, Is Derpy ur fav pony by any chance?yep
>>43539597I don't really have a favorite pony as I enjoy any pony I used to consider Fluttershy and Pinkie my favorites but my taste is expanding. Also, I won't record sex videos of myself anymore so don't bother asking me if I will do one with Fluttershy or Ellie The Mammoth or whoever. I'm trying to be less explicit with my image. I'd say I'm a normal and sweet guy who just needed a little adjustment. Also, nice derpy gif. saved it!
>>43539607>but my taste is expandingstop masturbating to mammoths, Rakan >I'm trying to be less explicit with my image>I'd say I'm a normal and sweet guy who just needed a little adjustment.your "looking for boyfriend-free girl" videos don't look so good as part of a more 'tame' image
>>43539633>stop masturbating to mammothsAnon, I was talking about my taste in ponies, not my masturbation habits...>your "looking for boyfriend-free girl" videos don't look so good as part of a more 'tame' imageI just want a cute girl to be with me like all young men my age. I don't see the abnormality. Plus, I'm a little afraid of approaching girls since I'm afraid I'll get in trouble.
>>43539692>I'm a little afraid of approaching girls since I'm afraid I'll get in trouble.gee I wonder why
>>43539532He was all about having fun, these are literally the first words he says in the show:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgQL-vbBilIThat is also what made him an interesting VILLAIN, his goal was never "take over the world", his goal was having fun, and his way of having fun was to mess with everyone, first give hopes, then break their spirits and eventually create a chaotic world of eternal torture for everyone except himself, which he found hilarious.That's why S2 Discord was the best Discord.

>>43538857>Pretty funny how G5 made earth ponies OPFake news. Earth Ponies were always OP, and G5 didn't introduce anything new for them.Plant growing is from a post-G4 clipshow (FUNdamentals) and the pony doing it is arguably the weakest major character in the entire series, applejack.We don't have direct comparisons for everything Starlight does just because nopony gets as much screentime as Twilight+Starlight, but we have earf feats for pretty muc everything>teleportationWe see this as both literal and ponies just moving between regions in the time it takes a unicorn to teleport>FlightPinkie>DefensesMaud and Starlight both ignore similar hazards (e.g. Rock Solid Friendship).>AttacksLikewise, similar scales of devastation based on objects (e.g. Maud Pie)>Multiple object manipulationLiterally portrayed as something too difficult for Twilight/AA!Trixie to do in Magic Duel where Pinkie does it>time travelZecora does this with a spell (potion). Plus, of course, precognition is essentially an earf domain.It's just a question of individual strength. Everypony can do anything, spells are interchangeable and stuff which you do without a horn is still considered a spell in the logic of the world (explictly per FUNdamentals, implicitly in the show). In Magic Duel, one of the episodes which gets into the nitty gritty of it, Zecora's magic is treated not as equivalent but as literally the same thing as Twilight's (except Zecora knows more about magic than she does). The reason you get shit posts by retards like >>43538933 and >>43538928 is because people refuse to accept that it's a fantasy world. If they just accept what they see on the screen and account for how rare the top talent is, the fact that Twilight/Starlight are pretty much directly equivalent to Pinkie/Maud (respectively) becomes pretty intuitive and the collary - that anypony could achieve XYZ outcome with the same amount of skill/effort/talent - follows naturally. And we even see this with Cozy.>>43539503>The more reliable method would be to break the spirits of the bearers and render them incapable of wielding the elements in the first place. Breaking Twilight's faith in friendship needed an explicit demonstration that her friends have abandoned her, which needed her to try and fail to use the Elements, which are obviously friendship-powered.This. Later season logic implies that the elements are easily replaceable (and Discord knows this) as well, so the thing that he actually has to break is the friendships - and that's precisely what he tries to do. And it's not like this is entirely a new-writier invention, the idea that the thing that actually matters are the conncetions of the main cast and their ingenuity and resilience in solving problems with friendship is essentially the point of S1E1-2.It's also in character for him.
Also strength isn't an earf thingIn most of the series the strongest ponies are consistently pegasi (with very specific exceptions), and by a lot too. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Sunset throwing hooves was about as devastating as Maud considering she's a superheavyweight who, unlike Twilight and Starlight, isn't a huge nerd
>>43539472Not very often. I still haven't seen all of S9 either.Fan stuff and compilations show up in my YouTube feed a lot though. I do watch those sometimes.I liked these two:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP6QlgPnJKUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEvQ7BeTMMU&t=95s

>>43540029Twilight harvests all the fruit from a dozen trees in seconds in applebuck season. It would have taken AJ, who has dedicated her entire life to farmwork, a whole day to achieve the same feat. I think you're conflating jokes like Pinkie being able to keep up with/outpace Rainbow Dash in Griffon the Brush Off with more serious depictions of unicorn abilities. Just like how you might be able to argue that unicorns are incredibly durable and are capable of spontaneous pyrokinesis after watching Feeling Pinkie Keen. Then again, it's a cartoon, so the argument is really moot anyway.What's the ability ceiling for earth ponies vs unicorns? Earth ponies: can smash big rocks and fast travel. Unicorns: actual time travel, telekinesis of massive objects (Ursa Minor), instilling ponies with temporary pegasus wings, mass mind control (Twilight using spells on the parasprites and fruit bats), magic barriers that can protect entire castles/cities (Shining armor and Cadence)Also, Zecora's potion wasn't literal time travel like unicorn magic can achieve, they were just visions of the past where the drinker is just a spectator rather than a participant. And, sure, Zecora is a talented potion-maker, but this isn't a trait exclusive to Earth Ponies. Anypony can be skilled in brewing potions, such as Twilight, who is skilled enough to instruct others in it (Twilight Time)>how rare the top talent is, the fact that Twilight/Starlight are pretty much directly equivalent to Pinkie/Maud (respectively) becomes pretty intuitive and the collaryI can accept this argument about how we're really just being shown exceptional talent that might not be representative of each respective race as a whole, but I think unicorns still come out on top. We're shown many examples of powerful unicorn wizards, but not a commensurate number of earth ponies who are similarly amazing>spells are interchangeable and stuff which you do without a horn is still considered a spell in the logic of the world (explictly per FUNdamentals, implicitly in the show)Distinction without a difference. It still pans out that unicorns, as a race, are more poised for magic. In a population of 100 earth ponies vs 100 unicorns, which one is going to have more powerful wizards.>inb4 that's just cause canterlot has all the magic schoolswell, it's not unicorns' faults that, when Earth ponies get together, they place more emphasis on farming and rodeos. Like I said, maybe if they turned off the country music once in a while, they could achieve parity with unicorns
>>43540914>Twilight harvests all the fruit from a dozen trees in seconds in applebuck season. It would have taken AJ, who has dedicated her entire life to farmwork, a whole day to achieve the same feat.Yes, because like I said, AJ is the absolute lowest tier pony in the show and Twilight is the second or third most powerful unicorn of all time. This has nothing to do with their races - Twilight strictly outclasses most ponyville/Canterlot unicorns in every way. How can you be this disingenuous?>I think you're conflating jokesThere it is. "You're right, I saw this on the screen, but accepting it would mean accepting that the world is magical and fantastic so I refuse". The jokes are the show.>Just like how you might be able to argue that unicorns are incredibly durable and are capable of spontaneous pyrokinesis after watching Feeling Pinkie Keen.They are. I literally just said that.>Then again, it's a cartoon, so the argument is really moot anyway.No it's not. You're just conceding because you know that you're wrong.>Unicorns: actual time travel, telekinesis of massive objects (Ursa Minor), instilling ponies with temporary pegasus wingsEarth ponies literally do all of these in the show, as I already pointed out.>mass mind control (Twilight using spells on the parasprites and fruit bats)Anon, it's literally an earth pony that hypnotizes the entire population of parasprites. Twilight mind controls them all and fails to suppress their instincts. Minutes later pinkie mind controls them all and leads them away successfully. This is an incredibly clear example of equivalence, where a powerful earth pony that's knows what she's doing succeeds where a comparable unicorn who doesn't fails.Swarm of the Century is the precursor to FPK - the moral is about trusting and listening to your friends even when you don't understand them. You're failing to take the lesson of SotC/FPK: just because you don't understand the magic doesn't mean it's not magic. You're literally saying that it's not real because it's a joke when S1 spends multiple episodes beating you over the head with the idea that it's real.>magic barriers that can protect entire castles/cities (Shining armor and Cadence)Cadance isn't using unicorn anything here? That's like saying that the Elements of Harmony are an earth pony or pegasus magic because earth ponies and pegasi use them. Like fuck dude, Cadance IS a pegasus.>Also, Zecora's potion wasn't literal time travel like unicorn magic can achieveAnon, it literally is. The only form of good time travel are visions; everything else is a negative side effect. Zecora is wiser than S5 Starlight.>but this isn't a trait exclusive to Earth PoniesCorrect. Everypony can use magic.The strongest spell in the entire show was cast by a Pegasus.
>I can accept this argument about how we're really just being shown exceptional talent that might not be representative of each respective race as a whole, but I think unicorns still come out on top.If you compare the upper class to the lower class, sure.>well, it's not unicorns' faults that, when Earth ponies get together, they place more emphasis on farming and rodeos. Like I said, maybe if they turned off the country music once in a while, they could achieve parity with unicornsYou're super retarded. The way you think they'd achieve parity is completely bunkum and has nothing to do with the show. Nopony is going to be scared of a gun. Powerful ponies reshape mountains, travel through time, cast country wide curses, and teleport on reaction to things they weren't watching - and might have the power of friendship or love to boot.The earth ponies doing the rodeos aren't relevant to the discussion about the heights of power because they are not and have no ambitions to be powerful, and generally have no significant destiny or responsibility. Like the vast number of unicorns in Canterlot/Ponyville/Manehattan, the vast majority of earth ponies in Conterlot/Ponyville/Manehattan aren't that powerful. They're infact completely useless. Trixie is like a one in 10 000 talent or better. The only reason why it seems like there are more powerful unicorns is that powerful rural unicorns are invited to Canterlot as foals, so the city ends up with more of them when they're fully grown. The strongest unicorn and the strongest earth pony both grew up in assfuck nowhere and weren't part of the capital, and the second strongest earth pony and unicorn are both in Ponyville.
I had a dream about a MLP game that was Basically Pokemone Mystery Dungeon, it was sprite based, but it also looked like Pokemon BW with some 3D models and structures used.You had a partner but for some reason they auto split up from you and explore on their own and weirdest part is that you move normally but enemies do not, so if you stay still the enemies just get unlimited turns until you act. I went down the stairs and when the floor loaded up a enemy that spawned next to me and it was just going up and down beside me constantly until I pressed start and then it belined to me and hit me twice in succession peutting me below half with the basic attack. so imagine if every enemy just had Agility Constantly if you didn't move or attack and you seemingly don't regen hp from walking, they also seem to lose actions as you run away from them as they'd actually fall behind me as I ran, prevented me from getting cornered and killed, so I'd bump into foe and attacking them fast also seemed to prevent the foes behind me from instantly acting catching up to me. I was forced to constantly run from foes because on this stage it seemed like you were meant to go into multiple times so the enemies were just much stronger than you stat wise.And when I was nearing the end the stair case was replaced with a 3D temple door with black hue inside, it was only two more floors left before reaching the end(?) Final floor count was 21.When I reached the end it looked even more like Pokemon BW with a big room and 3D objects, stuff you could climb up and it had collectable from reason, these rainbow puzzle pieces hidden in the safe room so I grabbed as many as I could because I didn't want to repeat the dungeon if they contained anything important. And I wasn't allowed to go deeper in the dungeon yet so I'd completed it for the time being and just needed to go on with the story event inside the safe room.The Dungeon was a Dirty Yellow Color, with Stone walls and Sand ground until I got deeper and got more Earthy Orange and stone floors, the whole way through it was dimly lit so the level had this dark fog with only little light shining through.Sorry if this worded strangely, I just woke up and wanted to share before I forgot this completely.Honestly seemed like a fun game despite the weird enemy quirks of being actionable until you do something, but it did seem to have some safety measures because an enemy spawned near me and didn't attack me until I hit start.I want to get into game development so I might write this down as a fan game idea, as I'm already coming up with fixes to the gameplay in my head.

>>43540951>AJ is the absolute lowest tier pony in the showother characters' opinions of her in Applebuck Season and all the rodeos that she excels in beg to disagree>There it is. "You're right, I saw this on the screen, but accepting it would mean accepting that the world is magical and fantastic so I refuse". The jokes are the show.So are we going to incorporate all the animation errors and cloned background ponies into our interpretation of the show's canon? They were shown on screen, so we must accept them. The animation errors are the show.>Anon, it's literally an earth pony that hypnotizes the entire population of parasprites.Were Pinkie's instruments imbued with magic? Was she using sorcery here, or do parasprites just enjoy music? Please cite evidence from the episode to support your claim. If not, then, once again, playing instruments is not a skill exclusive to earth ponies (just like potion brewing). Remember, we're talking about generalizations here, not specific instances of an earth pony succeeding where a unicorn displayed incompetence.>Anon, it literally is. The only form of good time travel are visions; everything else is a negative side effect.No, Zecora's potion was just remote viewing. Twilight's physical body remains in Ponyville, unable to interact with anything in the past. >Zecora is wiser than S5 Starlight.Doesn't change the fact that Starlight's magic is superior. Not wielded in the wisest way, but nonetheless more powerful.>>43540955>If you compare the upper class to the lower class, sure.Once again, give the comparison I want. What's the ceiling for what unicorn magic has been shown to do vs what abilities earth ponies have. Most powerful unicorn vs most powerful earth pony, who wins?

I thought you just called her lowest tier in your last post?One last note about SotC, I actually liked that Twilight's spell backfired. It would have been a nice way to establish that characters can't just use a convenient spell to instantly solve every conflict in the show. Then Flutterbat showed that you can use a convenient magic spell to solve a complex conflict with seemingly no repercussions (if Fluttershy had averted her gaze, that is).
>>43542413>Were Pinkie's instruments imbued with magic?Yes.Either literally everything in the world is magical, or the only possible exceptions are some things from the Everfree/similar areas. All signs point towards the former, though.>If not, then, once again, playing instruments is not a skill exclusive to earth ponies (just like potion brewing).Nobody said it was retard.>So are we going to incorporate all the animation errors and cloned background ponies into our interpretation of the show's canon?I like how you're trying to conflate "the central idea of the episode, a consistent idea that is repeated several times deliberately across several episodes and appears in the script and storyboard as well as the finished product" with animation errors. But yes, some or most or all of the errors can be easily taken in stride. But you're being obviously retarded and disingenuous. "Anything which challenges my shit-and-mud mindset is a joke and doesn't count!1!" is just you conceding the argument, which you should do because you're literally arguing against the thesis of several S1 episodes directly.>No, Zecora's potion was just remote viewing.Which is the better spell.>Doesn't change the fact that Starlight's magic is superior.It's strictly worse. And it's not like Zecora is that powerful, anyway. The point was just that it's another example of non-unicorns casting spells including time travel.>Most powerful unicorn vs most powerful earth pony, who wins?Including stuff like friendship/love? Pinkie blows the snot out of rarara (when TS isn't a unicorn) and ties with TS in the early seasons (Pinkie is ahead in S1 and TS catches up in S2 and goes ahead).Excluding those as external factors? Maud and Starlight go even.If you mean a hypothetical pony then obviously they're interchangeable>They are both super durable, can fly, etc., but one can time travel to before the other was born and force choke their entire family in the past.Anon, they can both do that. It's also not really relevant. You seem to think that fights are determined by literally beating the other pony (as with a stick) but that doesn't accomplish anything for more than a few weeks at most.>Applejack? I thought you just called her lowest tier in your last post?Are you being retarded deliberately?You must be, right? It's literally impossible to be this stupid and illiterate.>One last note about SotC, I actually liked that Twilight's spell backfired. It would have been a nice way to establish that characters can't just use a convenient spell to instantly solve every conflict in the show.Anon, they used a convenient spell to instantly solve the parasprites. The parasprites weren't the problem. The core conflict of the episode is Pinkie trying to get her friends to listen to her.The show is about friendship. Friendship is Magic establishes unequivocally in the opening two-parter that everything else is secondary, non-metaphorically.
>>43542470>Either literally everything in the world is magical, or the only possible exceptions are some things from the Everfree/similar areas. All signs point towards the former, though.I believe that I asked you to cite evidence. Something along the lines of Pinkie saying "I need to get my magic instruments" or another pony remarking "Wow, Pinkie I didn't know you were so good at magic" would be sufficient to convince me>Nobody said it was retard.We're making comparisons here. If we set up a ratio of (unicorn abilities / earth pony abilities) trying to determine if our quotient is greater than or less than 1, then we'd want to only focus on exclusive abilities, not abilities which would be present in both the numerator and denominator. Making the claim that earth ponies are just as powerful because they can play instruments doesn't work because unicorns can play instruments too (1/1 = 1)>It's strictly worse. And it's not like Zecora is that powerful, anyway. The point was just that it's another example of non-unicorns casting spells including time travel.Regardless of intention, if a pony wanted to alter the events of history, which spell would be better for this: the one that acts as a time machine, or the one that shows you a historical documentary? Unicorn magic is more powerful (perhaps at the cost of being much more dangerous) any way you slice it>Including stuff like friendship/love?No, see above about the ratio. Everypony has access to friendship powers, but not every pony has access to time travel>Maud and Starlight go even.Maud can time travel to kill Starlight's ancestors? Or is only one of these ponies capable of that? Once again, not drinking a potion that shows visions of the past, but one that actually sends the user back in time.>You seem to think that fights are determined by literally beating the other pony (as with a stick) but that doesn't accomplish anything for more than a few weeks at most.I think you're conflating raw power (what my argument is focused on) with practicality. What's more practical for defense, a handgun or an ICBM? The former, obviously, but it'd be ridiculous to then say that the ICBM is useless. In the same vein, Zecora's remote viewing potion is more practical than TS's spell (you don't want to fuck up the future), but TS's magic is still more powerful because of its increased capabilities.
>>43542470>I like how you're trying to conflate "the central idea of the episode, a consistent idea that is repeated several times deliberately across several episodes and appears in the script and storyboard as well as the finished product" with animation errorsJust using your standard: If it's on the screen, then it's a part of pony reality. What's shown in the show simply is. Twilight bursting into flames in Feeling Pinkie Keen is a serious representation of a character's pyrokinetic ability. This was not a stylistic choice made by human writers working on a cartoon to represent a character's emotions in a visual way, it is an in-universe confirmation of an ability.>inb4 ignoring the central themeQuite the opposite, the central theme of Pinkie Keen is Twilight's skepticism/stubbornness working against her and producing situations that result in her expense until they boil-over in her meltdown. Bursting into flames was 100% in-line with the theme.>Are you being retarded deliberately?No need to be so terse for someone who is apparently lecturing me about the sanctity of friendship. We obviously have different perceptions of characters' powerlevels that you would place Pinkie and Maud so high yet AJ so low. I think that my ranking of AJ is more accurate, given the evidence I cited (Applebuck Season).>Anon, they used a convenient spell to instantly solve the parasprites. The parasprites weren't the problem. The core conflict of the episode is Pinkie trying to get her friends to listen to her.Once again, I maintain that Pinkie didn't use magic, just exploited a facet of parasprite biology that compels them to follow music. Normal, everyday music. Any tuba, trumpet, or tambourine played by a pegasus, unicorn, or earth pony would've been just as sufficient.
>>43542628>Zecora's remote viewing potion is more practical than TS's spell (you don't want to fuck up the future), but TS's magic is still more powerful because of its increased capabilities.I meant to say Starlight's magic. Don't know why I said TS

Are all the recent low effort barbie threads some sort of trolling/demoralization attempt or am I just going schizo and barbieposters are simply that insufferable?
>>43542628nta, just jumping in with my own autism.>Maud can time travel to kill Starlight's ancestors? Or is only one of these ponies capable of that?Technically, Starlight is using a tool. She cannot time travel without the scroll and the scroll is gone. So that specific example isn't exactly a fair comparison and going back in time to kill a baby is a cheapshot equivalent to killing someone while they're asleep, so that's not fair way to compare two fighters.I think Starlight still has the edge through strategy, her agile long-range fighting style kind of counters Maud. If Maud gets close to anyone she wins, but Starlight won't ever let that happen. Maud can toss boulders/Boulder, but that's still too slow and predictable. Maud has a better chance against Twilight because Twilight is slow and more likely to stand her ground and use a shield, trying to tank Maud will spell her doom. Dash has a better chance against Starlight than Maud, could beat her if her bird brain doesn't make any mistakes since she can actually chase down Starlight. Twilight has a better matchup against Dash than Starlight since she can easily tank all of her attacks except maybe the dive bomb.So it depends.Unicorns are still more OP as a race just from the sheer amount of options they have at their disposal. If there was a tournament, I'd wager unicorns would have a higher winrate.Pinkie is Pinkie and can't really be compared fairly to anyone because of 4th wall shenanigans, Pinkie does not represent earth pony abilities, she can win or lose any fight even from the same opponent since her power comes from the 4th wall (the writer who will decide her fate).
>>43542768>Are all the recent low effort barbie threads some sort of trolling/demoralization attemptYes.>barbieposters are simply that insufferable?Yes.
I wish I were a pony
>>43542820>What were we talking about again?Fuck if I know.
>>43542779>Technically, Starlight is using a tool. She cannot time travel without the scroll and the scroll is gone. So that specific example isn't exactly a fair comparison and going back in time to kill a baby is a cheapshot equivalent to killing someone while they're asleep, so that's not fair way to compare two fighters.Fair point, but there's still Starswirl's time travel spell. Even without time travel, like you say, unicorns just have so many more options. Not all of them are fair/honorable in a fight though (like pulling out an ICBM against a mugger with a pistol). The point is: you want a giant barrier erected around an entire city? You call up a unicorn, not an earth pony. You want to swap around/steal cutie marks? You call up a unicorn. You want to remove/add/enlarge a pony's body parts? Unicorn. You want to turn your opponent into an infant? Unicorn. You want somepony skilled with a lasso? You call an earth pony (if Trixie isn't available).Technically, I'm willing to grant that any race could make use of magic spells from books/artifacts (I don't think we are shown this, though), but unicorns still predominate as magic users because of their inherent racial qualities.>Pinkie is Pinkie and can't really be compared fairly to anyone because of 4th wall shenanigans, Pinkie does not represent earth pony abilities, she can win or lose any fight even from the same opponent since her power comes from the 4th wall (the writer who will decide her fate).Big agree. In "Pinkie Pride" she shows a real-life alligator doing the gummy dance. Are we to interpret this as Pinkie having the ability to open portals to other dimensions (as Discord has been shown to do)? Either everything shown to us is entirely literal, or we have to acknowledge that we are watching a cartoon and structure our arguments around that fact.

>>43542628>Maud can time travel to kill Starlight's ancestors?Yes.Also time traveling to kill someponies ancestors doesn't work. It's not actually a show of strength because it's impossible to actually accomplish anything other than personal growth with time travel.Everything else is you being retarded and has no relationship to my post or the conversation.>>43542632>Twilight bursting into flames in Feeling Pinkie Keen is a serious representation of a character's pyrokinetic ability. This was not a stylistic choice made by human writers working on a cartoon to represent a character's emotions in a visual way, it is an in-universe confirmation of an ability.Anon.I already said that.But it's not that Twilight is especially pyrokinetic (although she almost certainly is in terms of having a spell for it)It's that all ponies are able to produce fire like that. They're little cartoon horses. If they drink hotsauce and breath out fire, and that fire lights something on fire, then that thing is literally on fire. It's real (magical) fire, just like they're real magical little horsies.>Any tuba, trumpet, or tambourine played by a pegasus, unicorn, or earth pony would've been just as sufficient.And it still would have been magic just the same.>>43542911>Technically, I'm willing to grant that any race could make use of magic spells from books/artifacts (I don't think we are shown this, though)Anon, a pegasus literally drains the magic from the entirety of Equestria as has been pointed out to you repeatedly.

>>43542779>Technically, Starlight is using a tool. She cannot time travel without the scroll and the scroll is gone.No she's not. Twilight Sparkle is using a tool. Starlight is casting it freehoof, and Trixie spares no opportunity to remind her that she could go back in time again if subsequent episodes. Certainly according to every character in the show that comments on or reacts to comments on it, Starlight can still time travel.Twilight is scrollcasting Starlight's spell, Starlight isn't scrollcasting Starswirl's spell. Even if she needed a tool she could just make a new one since she made the original.>I think Starlight still has the edge through strategy, her agile long-range fighting style kind of counters Maud. If Maud gets close to anyone she wins, but Starlight won't ever let that happen.Maud has the best teleportation of any character in the series aside from maybe Discord. In terms of speed, Pinkie goes as fast as non-booming Dash in S1 and Maud either through speed or reflexes is the one that's able to save Pinkie in her debut episode, not Dash.Twilight/Pinkie/Starlight/Maud are on a totally different level to Dash.>Pinkie is Pinkie and can't really be compared fairly to anyone because of 4th wall shenanigans, Pinkie does not represent earth pony abilities, she can win or lose any fight even from the same opponent since her power comes from the 4th wall (the writer who will decide her fate).No, her power comes from being a pony. Watch FPK.Pinkie does represent earth ponies, and Maud being the way she is especially confirms this because it's another clear example of the most earth pony like earth pony having the most exaggerated earth pony attributes.>>43542911You realize that ponies seeing a 3dpd alligator doesn't require an actual portal to the 3dpd world, right? A lot of the show is shot from ponies perspective, and includes dreams/illusions/etc..But also>Are we to interpret this as Pinkie having the ability to open portals to other dimensionsStarswirl, a unicorn who is soundly less powerful than S3+ Twilight, is able to do so so almost certainly yes.
>>43543169No human being is going to use a site you need a discord to sign up for. Realistically anyone that just wants to write is going to move to Ao3.
>>43542687What's the issue if it's just fictional content that you enjoy by yourself? Is it effecting the things you get urges to do irl?What fetishes are they?
>>43543191>Starlight is casting it freehoofNo she isn't. She's activating the scroll everytime that Twilight is holding onto, unicorns don't need to be physically touching the scroll to use it.
>>43543355No she's not. Every time Twilight casts from the scroll it pulls Starlight because she wrote herself onto the scroll version. She doesn't need the scroll, which again, she made in the first place.
>>43542413>It would have been a nice way to establish that characters can't just use a convenient spell to instantly solve every conflict in the showThey even hung a lampshade on this with Twilight's 'failsafe spell' at the start of S2. I can think of a few other instances in the early seasons where they went out of their way to set limits on unicorns. Shame they dropped that thread and we ended up with laser battles.
>>43543356That's not Starlight activating the spell. That is Twilight activating the spell.
>>43543361Right, because Starlight just casts the spell freehoof.The spell require the cutie table so you could argue that true freeform fullride time travel needs tools of a higher power to accomplish (I think this is a weak argument when friendship & love have been established as being all pervasive early on, but there is room to make it I guess), but the Tree is always going to be available to cast spells against and specific to the point being made, it has nothing to do with the scroll.
>>43543364Starlight isn't casting anything when Twilight activates the spell. The spell is just design to pull in a certain pony when used. It could've been tied to AJ, but that doesn't mean AJ is casting the spell freehoof when Twilight activates it.She didn't create the scroll either, only modified it by connecting it to the cutie map so it's not even using her own power.
>>43543373>Starlight isn't casting anything when Twilight activates the spell.We're not talking about that anon.We're talking about when Starlight casts the spell. Which she does repeatedly. Without the scroll. I posted a picture of Starlight casting the spell. That's not Twilight. That's Starlight. This couldn't be any clearer or more obvious.>She didn't create the scroll eitherYes she did. That's her version that Twilight is casting from.>only modified it by connecting it to the cutie map so it's not even using her own power.Arguably the perfect version that goes anywhere is tapping the cutie map, but it's unambiguous that time travel exists without it and that ponies including Starlight think that Starlight can still time travel.
>>43543408The scroll is right there silly and she is activating it through the cutie map since they are connected. The cutiemap is what lets the user go to any location in the world.
Does anyone have the Soundtrack that plays in this moment?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zd7ZslMKnc
>>43543408Create and modify are two different things. Starswirl created the spell then Starlight modified it through the cutie map.

>>43543426Right, there it is at 0:54, the part where Discord says their faces are full of hope, that part of the music is so cinematic, I also always liked that weird sound that plays when Discord is a villain and has created a world of chaos... that... the sound that plays at 0:03 that also plays a lot in season 2x01 and 2x02, love the ost of this show sometimes
>>43543410Scroll isn't doing anything in that scene, anon.>The cutiemap is what lets the user go to any location in the world.And? The point you're trying to prove is that Starlight can't do time travel at all without the scroll and even if she needs the map you've not proved that she needs the scroll. And again, considering less powerful characters have done time travel before the map form existed (including obviously Starswirl) it seems very doubtful that she couldn't do the same thing, and nopony thinks that she can't do it. Seriously, how many times does this same point need to be repeated?>>43543414And?Starlight and other ponies believe that she's still capable of time travel, so if she needs a scroll then she can just make a new one and as seen in the show, she doesn't need the scroll. Only Twilight did.
>>43543456Unicorns don't need to be physically touching the scroll to activate them. They can be triggered from a distance.Her friends don't know the mechanics and limitations of the spell, only Twilight and Starlight.
>>43543459Anon, she didn't activate the scroll (which she wrote), she only used it once and after that only Twilight ever used itThis will be your final >(you) until you watch the episode
>>43543471Sorry Anon, but she's only been using the scroll the entire time if you paid attention. Whether it's on her person or in Twilight's possession, the scroll just needs to be in the vicinity. At the end the scroll also disappears into its own portal subtly implying no one can time travel anymore.Also trying to say Starswirl is weaker than her is a ridiculous notion. Starlight can't do anything without the scroll he created.

>>43543201>What's the issue if it's just fictional content that you enjoy by yourself?Considering the nature of the fetishes, I just every so often feel disgusting, I wouldn’t wish any pony under what I fap to. Yes it’s fictional, but I always feel like I’m at risk of getting my ticket revoked, that or I think about how much time I’ve wasted, how I didn’t fap to vanilla pony (at most excessive crotchboob) content, etc. >Is it affecting the things you get urges to do irl?No, thankfully I’ve managed to establish the fiction line, but it still bothers me.>what fetishes are theyToilet stuff (scat, farts, etc), Morbid Obesity/Slob, and Healthplay.While some people are understanding of it and know I have little control over them (like my previous ex, who broke up with me since he didn’t like my online erp while we were dating and felt cucked, even though I’d never cuck him irl). I don’t know, I’ve been fapping to these for the later part of 7-8 years, they’re engrained but despite bringing momentary pleasure, there’s always the mental impact every so often where I question my love for pony, why I keep doing it, and etc.I don’t expect you to have much to say anon, it’s just been bothering me for a while now, even with me trying to momentarily quit it I’ll keep crawling back.
I think the reason why Discord KEPT fucking shit up and yet he KEPT being given chances is because he successfully seduced Celestia during the events of Season 2, which is why she kept trying to get him reformed.>The Plunderseeds were his fault? it's okay, we forgive him>He betrayed us for Tirek? it's okay, we forgive him>He resurrected Sombra? It's okay, we forgive him>He got three super dangerous villains together and buffed them with a cursed bell and now they are going to destroy Equestria? it's okay, we forgive him>Oh hey Discord btw I have retired from being a princess and I have more free time, hahaha you are so sexy hahaha classic mares always thinking with her cunt
>>43544138>>43544138Well I don't think beating yourself up is really helping much, it's a victimless crime at the end of the day, even if I understand that it feels shameful. If you really can't stand it, I guess you could try pivoting to other fetishes that make you feel less bad? But at the end of the day a fetish is a fetish, it's not really something you can control, I think learning to forgive yourself is what would help the most.>Toilet stuff (scat, farts, etc)Hop on the Tamers12345 mlp series my friend
>>43544148Celestia can't use the elements and the sisters aren't able to fight him without them so I really do think this mostly tracks, only with a bit more mindrapeIt also explains the LoD statueAnd cellophane's tastes do actually run that way, as evidenced by Best Night Ever even before the Dman makes his return in any capacity

Someone posted the alien again
Spike is an okay character, I don't hate him.
>>43544689Faust's stand-in for a hypothetical annoying younger brother. I like the guy. It's tough not to, if you're still in touch with how you were at his age.
>>43543882You literally ran away with>This will be your final >(you)Silly goose.
>>43544689He's fun, I wish he was slightly more sympathetically portrayed but he's still fun.
I made this today.
>>43543479I'm an Anon that has watched the showAMA
>43544744No?You just kept repeating shit which had nothing to do with the conversation or the show. I didn't say>This will be your final >(you)I said something like>This will be your final >(you) until you watch the episodeWhich you still haven't done
I'm still surprised that in Nine seasons we never got an episode where Spike turns into a pony.It seems like such an obvious plot.
>>43543479I watched season 1-3 but I never saw Twi become an alicorn.I refuse to btw.
>>43545294You cowardly ran away and I understand why because you have no argument against canon, all you did was deflect the entire time to escape from the fact that unicorns don't need to be touching the scroll to activate it. The scroll is the device that opens the portals, every time the portal was opened was because of it, it's that simple. It's nice that you have your own AU and all, but I'm only discussing the show here.
>>43526533im eating a bunch of MANGOES rite nowe
>>43544689he's more honest than AJ. Always primed and ready to tell it like it is to a pony's face
>>43536774Mares have crotchtits you gaping nigger
>>43545587Oh you're that fag>all you did was deflect the entire timeAll I did was refer to the episode and post screenshots proving me right lol>unicorns don't need to be touching the scroll to activate itCorrect>The scroll is the device that opens the portals, every time the portal was opened was because of itWrong>It's nice that you have your own AU and all8/10 baitI'd say watch the show but I literally posted proof from the show without you needing to watch it and we both know you're obviously trolling anyway. Like it's a pretty good showing, but we both know that you know what actually happened on screen so it doesn't really have the same bite as a legitimate retard. You're even posting Starlight images unprompted so it's not like you have a raging hateboner for the character or something, you're just having fun on the internet I guess.
Oh applejack okay okay oh my ah apple that hey why the fuck hey stop for a a second why is my my phone voice mail is recording a ow okay seriously stop for a second okay why okay no. Okay turn. turn off right now this fucking voice command won't work turn off turn
??? what
>>43545597she would like to know your location
>>43546027Funnily enough your picture only proves me right as I described earlier. The scroll is nearby and the cutie map is connected to the scroll and what the cutie map does is allow the user to go to any time and place. Only the scroll can open portals and the cutie map extends the capability of the portal.
Purple Ethan
>>43546136>Only the scroll can open portalsYou keep saying this but we see Starlight open portals without the scroll, she never once says she needs the scroll, and after disposing of the scroll she and everypony else still believe she can travel through time.Also she made the scroll.Also she's vastly more powerful than the pony who made Starswirl's version originally, and in theory Twiggypiggy would be likewise able to make the samething SS did, as well as the two sisters.>Funnily enough your picture only proves me right as I described earlier.Nope. Exact opposite.
Get compressed
>>43546164>we see Starlight open portals without the scrollThat's the thing, we never do.If you want real proof, show me a single time where Starlight opens a portal without the scroll anywhere in the vicinity, the scroll is always there to be triggered and notice how the portal only appears above the scroll, Spike carrying the scroll doesn't change the fact that the scroll is there in the vicinity.
>>43546206Actually, she may not even be manually triggering them at all, the portal opening above the scroll could very well be based on a timer that ends several seconds after the rainboom. Either way, Starlight isn't opening the portals herself.
>>43546206>notice how the portal only appears above the scroll>scroll is nowhere to be seen in the screenshot that was already posted and is implictly totally off to the sideThe portal appears above the table when they're using the table, scroll has nothing to do with it. Look, this is the one and only time Starlight uses the scroll. Exactly like when she takes Twilight to her own past, she lasers the table and then the portal appears above the table. Unlike that time, she lasered the table with the scroll. The screenshot in >>43543364 she just uses her horn. A beam of crackling light directly connects the source to the table before the table activates in both cases, and the portal appears above the table.See that thing down in the bottom left? That's the scroll. This is the one time that Starlight scrollcast the spell, and the portal is way the fuck away from the scroll.>If you want real proofI've given real proof already in >>43543364, and you'd see more just by watching the episodes.>>43546250You're thinking of when Twilight is doing it. As was already shown in >>43543364, Starlight can just do it whenever she wants and doesn't use the scroll to do so.Also you've really got to stop dodging the fact that>she made the scrollShe literally makes a new scroll in Uncommon Bond. I guess you could argue that they're in a pocket dimension or something rather than their past, but what they're not in is the modern day version of Starlight Glimmer's parent's house because the bookshelf contents are wrong.
>>43546278Starlight actually activates the scroll above the cutie map.Here is Twilight lasering the cutie map in the exact same manner Starlight did without "using the scroll" as you put it.You have yet to show any instance where Starlight opens a portal without the scroll anywhere in the vicinity.
>>43546278Any decent mage can make scrolls, that's nothing special.Starlight didn't make Starswirl's spell though, Starswirl did. Starlight only modified his spell through the cutie map.
>>43546357>You have yet to show any instance where Starlight opens a portal without the scroll anywhere in the vicinity.See >>43543364>Here is Twilight lasering the cutie map in the exact same manner Starlight did without "using the scroll" as you put it.Which just implies that Twilight can cast Starlight's spell without the scroll by that point in the episode.Again keep in mind that per MMC S4+ Twilight is a better mage than Starswirl, so if he can do some type of time travel she can do the same or better once she's had the chance to learn it. By this point in the episode Twilight has been casting Starlight's spell with the scroll for about thirty times as long as it takes Trixie to learn teleportation, and the only version she successfully casts at this point is specifically Starlight's scroll version since it brings them both back there.>>43546368Repeating yourself in the face of clear evidence from the show doesn't make you right anon.>Any decent mage can make scrolls, that's nothing special.She made a time travel scroll. Again. Picrel is S7 and we literally see Starlight pen it moments before.
>>43546424Spike is carrying the scroll and is standing right on top of the table, silly. That is in the vicinity.Suddenly Twilight knows how to time travel without the scroll now? You're a bit all over the place.That wasn't a time travel spell in S7, it was an illusion spell. Twilight and Starlight learned it at some point. No one can age up/down a pony other than Amulet Trixie.
>>43546438>Suddenly Twilight knows how to time travel without the scroll now? You're a bit all over the place.>SuddenlyAnon it's >32 minutes in.>That wasn't a time travel spell in S7, it was an illusion spell. Twilight and Starlight learned it at some point. No one can age up/down a pony other than Amulet Trixie.That sure are a lot of false claims that you have no evidence for. I'm excited to see you try to prove these.>No one can age up/down a pony other than Amulet Trixie.Like you're back to just straight trolling at this point, right? Lmao.
Why are anons arguing over something not canon? I didn't nor will I read the previous posts to figure it out myself btw.
>>43546447you're not canon btw
>>43546446You said it yourself that the bookshelf contents are wrong so time travel is clearly off the table. Not to mention that the way it activates and deactivates involves no time portals to travel through.You're just being silly now.I think we're done here, friend.
>>43546465>You said it yourself that the bookshelf contents are wrong so time travel is clearly off the table.???Bookshelf contents are wrong for the PRESENT DAY so it is time travel.>Not to mention that the way it activates and deactivates involves no time portals to travel through.The green mist literally covers and transports them.>You're just being silly now.So you're not going to try to substantiate any of your claims? Just conceding and agreeing that I'm right, as you've known from the start?
>>43546447This.
>>43546475First you need to substantiate yours since you're the one making the claim that it is time travel. Bookshelf being different in the illusion doesn't change anything. The mist sets the illusions, that's all. Only Amulet Trixie can age up/down ponies. You need to prove that it's time travel.You have yet to show any instance where Starlight opens a portal without the scroll anywhere in the vicinity either.
>>43546455This.
>>43543167JD Vance? Is that you?
>>43546151nice colt u got there nonny
>>43546488>First you need to substantiate yoursI did, repeatedly. See >>43543364>First you need to substantiate yours since you're the one making the claim that it is time travel.I don't need to substantiate anything because we see Starlight doing time travel freehoof in S5 after doing it with a scroll that she made.>Bookshelf being different in the illusion doesn't change anything. The mist sets the illusions, that's all. Only Amulet Trixie can age up/down ponies. You need to prove that it's time travel.Feel free to give proof for any of these lmao.>Only Amulet Trixie can age up/down ponies.This in particular is an outrageously broad and obviously false claim, given we see Starlight age down ponies on screen, the only pony that says it knows basically nothing about magic at the time, and a vast array of the cast are more powerful than amulet trixie.
>>43546523You're repeatedly showing how Spike is carrying the scroll and is standing right on top of the table, silly. That is in the vicinity.>i don't need proof for anythingNo, you actually do. I'm waiting, Anon.
>>43546535>No, you actually do. I'm waiting, Anon.How can you be waiting for something I've posted a half dozen times?

>>43546975Just wanted to give you some time to develop your AU, friend. I admit I was leading you on just to see what silly things you'd come up with. You won, little buddy! Twilight and Starlight can certainly time travel and age up or down freely whenever they want to live forever or die as they please, hehe ;3

It would've been cool if the show used this shading style more often
