Where are Pinkie, Fluttershy and AJ's episodes? *RAGE*
MLP:FiM season 2 synopsis: the show is now about Rainbow Dash and Rarity.
*Facehoof*
-
I'll admit - this episode did exactly what I was scared it would do. I'm very, very tired of Rainbow Dash always being the butt of the joke, shown wrong every time she tries to do something.
Is it any wonder she has such a low self-esteem and clings to her speed so very much? It's the only thing she has. Of course she's 'loyalty', she only sees value in her friends - not in herself. She'd never let them down for her own sake, when she's so worthless. Yay, she's fast. That lets her have big-damn-hero moments for getting people out of the way of danger...
But every time she tries to establish her personality in any way, to make a choice other than 'be fast - get someone out of the way' she gets shot down. "Hey, big giant monster is threatening my friends! I'll kick it in the face! ... oh, no, wait, nevermind, I forgot my friend has magic mind-raping guilt powers. OK, well, hey, I'll just have some fun, be a prankster! Oh, no, wait... my old prankster buddy's being kinda... *****y. Hrm. Now I have to choose between two of my friends, boy I feel like crap. Hey, time to rescue everyone by taking out this swarm of horrible bugs! Oh, no, wait - my friend who didn't bother to explain anything to anyone comes in and ruins my rescue, and she gets the spotlight instead, because she enjoys being all mysterious and random. Man, I can't do anything right, apparently."
Every time she tries to do something, she gets shot down. The world is too 'nice' and tries to find 'nice' ways of defeating enemies - even if those ways of defeating enemies are actually a bit worse than kicking them in the face. In a different world, she'd be able to grow, develop, and be a hero. Here, she just ends up looking like a clown every time she tries, her fragile self-ego taking yet another kick to the face.
And you forgot to mention her TERRIBLE mullet mane
I didn't find the episode that bad, at least it was distracting... but two R.D episodes in a row was kinda overkill, still waiting for a Fluttershy one. Can't say she got much screen time so far in season 2.
Anyway not so great they made the mysterious mane's identity obvious so early.
Fast and strong: check
Super sense: check
Ok we got it, collective effort.

Dear Princess Celestia,
Today I learned being a mod is not that important and I'd better have some fun rather than gathering responsabilities just for the sake of being "somepony".
Your faithful student...

Episodes 6 and 7 meh, otherwise good season 2 so far imo.
-
you should see my TF2 crew; we can call each other horrible names, be harsh and sarcastic and generally be d**ks in game but out of it its all cool
I'm cool with my team but I can be terrible with opposition. I'm sometimes truly annoyingly competitive XD
And I don't even like R.D...

Firefox, same problem.

I wait an episode without a moral, would be mind-blowing.
"Dear Princess Celestia,
Today a bunch of crazy stuffs happened and everything returned to normal all by itself. Perhaps I should relax a little more."

What with the sad face?

Listen the wise words of LordBrony9, strong is the dark side of the Force!

Dear Princess Celestia,
A few days ago I was reminded that its ok for ponies to be fierce rivals who will do anything (within fairness) to win in game but as long as we don't take personally we can be good friends out of it

Dear Princess Celestia,
I don't know if its ok for ponies to be fierce rivals who will do anything to win in game but it's sure can be fun. Too bad some can take it personally and can't be good friends out of it.
Your devoted subject,
Ashwood

The writers won't give up on the main cast flaws despite the moral of the episodes, it would make them Mary Sues.
Still it's annoying the flaws in themselves are sometimes so exaggerated. Especially on R.D and Rarity, they often write them borderline irrating.
I really liked the song but the rest of the episode... not convinced

Favorite pony is Twilight, has Rarity avatar.
What?
Welcome

Watching MLP confirmed to be safe only if you are an adult.
Say what?
Probably made-up though.

"I'm bored, let's watch this..."
And then:
"Wow, these opening credits are terrible..."

And once again Applejack proves she can handle things...

Is it tonight? IS IT TONIGHT?
What is the broadcasting day? I always watch it on youtube.
Did anyone else ever wonder why the pets can't talk, but the cows, sheep and (duh) ponies can?
Huuu... you're right, no reason the cats and dogs can't talk there are mammals too.

I was thinking hypothetically...
If the same kind of event would happen again next year, it wouldn't be that bad that the worst visit would be 0 candy and/or poison joke. Because at the moment it can be frustrating to return to 0 when characters already at 0 can't lose anything and the last day if you lead the classement there is no obvious benefit for your ranking to participate to the event.
Not that the competition itself is everything but that's still to considerate.
It's a fun event but for people not talking english so well it's kinda time intensive to participate everyday out of the week-end XD
-
Well, if you checked the other topics, you would see that Nightmare Moon and Discord take candy, while Luna and Celestia give candy.
If it was random there would be no way I would know that for sure, I could only assume. Especially considering Pinkie can give or cost candies apparently.
-
Third day and still out of candy... fate is too cruel, I gonna hide in my Manehattan flat.
By the way how the numbers are determined? All characters can give or cost candies or some only give and others only cost?

Accompanied by the young Perched Lighthoof, Ashwood comes close of the frightening statue. A couple of ponies seems to have preceded them. The pegasus turn to him.
_"My friend won't be here, he loathes Nightmare Moon. He always tell me how it would have been better she stays in the Moon forever."
Ashwood looks at him with a perplexed expression.
_"Only the future will tell us if her return is a blessing or a curse. For now we can ask these fellow ponies if they saw your friend passing by."
They approach the monument.
_"Good evening gentlemares, this young fella lost his friend in the forest, did you saw him by chance? Can you describe him Perched Lighthoof?"
_"He is a pegasus, his mane and pelt are dark blue. His cutie mark is a flash of lightning."

No letter to Celestia, only one pony of the main cast, the cutie mark crusaders in and it's my favorite episode of the season. Err, confusing... or perhaps the breath of fresh air is just welcome. For once we don't have the same old antics I don't complain.
It was great material for fanfiction, I'll certainly find something to use there.
