RarityFan1992 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 I'm sorry if i'm asking a question that's already been asked on here before but why wasn't Babs Seed in the episode Rarity Takes Manehattan, she could've had a cameo or maybe even be mentioned by Applejack but none of these things happened which I find weird especially considering it was stated in Season 3 that she lives there?

RarityDash Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 They probably could have put a cameo in somewhere.Doesn't really surprise me that she wouldn't be focused on heavily though as she doesn't really have anything to do with the core point of the episode. Also, it's Apple Bloom and not Applejack who has the especially close relationship with her and is in the same age group, and Apple Bloom of course was not in that episode.

RedCedar Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 The episode was meant more to focus on Rarity than any of the Apple clan, so a cameo might have been a bit forced. Would be a great idea for a future episode, though. Sort of a town mouse - country mouse theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kulstor Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Could be that since it was focused on Rarity. Maybe also the writer didn't know or forgot about Babs Seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegasusexpress2010 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Might have to do with the fact that Manehattan is absolutely freakin' HUGE. As Babs, I wouldn't be surprised if Applejack visited the city and didn't have the time to stop by, take it from me who actually lives there and have frequent experiences with family passing through and not stopping by to say hello.This episode was focused mainly on a different cultural aspect of Manehattan as the setting. Including Babs Seed, while it would have been harmless, would not really add to the plot and would seem a bit out of place at least considering the focus on the glamor of Fashion Week rather than the grit of Babs' neighborhood.

moonshineTheleocat Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Unless the town is incredibly small, which even Ponyville is pretty fricken big, don't always expect a character to show up as a cameo. You are more likely to run into unnamed Copy and Pastes, or Time turner (given his shape is the most widely used) clones, than a unique named.

Laces Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The episode was obviously focused on Rarity, but the animators could've at least added Babs in the background or something. Continuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamp337 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hasbro.Alternatively, Babs was out fighting space crime with her sidekick, Huffy the Magic Dragon, as mentioned in Over a Barrel.Or, you know, she was inside or in another part of the city.Or out of town.Or sick.Or at school.Or a lot of things.

Moonshiner Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 There was no particular reason for Babs Seed to appear in that episode, and therefore she didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
