I>TS MINE, AND IM GOING TO READ IT!

God I loved that part.

AJ is still the most boring character and always will be.

Rainbow Dash is a badass without friends.

>>29963978
THIS BOOK IS MINE, AND I'M GOING TO READ IT!

Freaking nerds.

>>29963978
She just might need some help for that

After this opening there is no doubt in my mind that season 2 will surpass season 1 in every way. And I could not be happier.

so close

>>29963978
Guy, Guys

I watched the episode.

I think I might be overhype.

Now I feel like my expectations are too high for this season, hopefully 2 weeks of break will help.

Here's the dresses, FacelessJr.

>>29964007
I wish we'd seen discorded Apple Bloom at the farm.

In my head canon, Flutterbitch started an animal fighting ring in her cottage.

So word on the street is you guys are fond of tiny, terribly optimized gifs.

it is a good day

>>29964007
Dash is a badass both with and without friends.
For her friends, she'll do the impossible. For herself, she'll found a city entirely to sleep in it.

>>29964007
Applejack is responsible for all these ropes

You might think that's boring, but I'd have to disagree heartily

so, any Discord ZA WARUDO yet?

>>29964021

People have been saying it is in fact 3 weeks of break

>>29964028
That sounds like a thing we might like.

>>29964020

Did the new episode air yet?

>>29964020
Angel doesn't count as a pet?

Alright, here's the plan.

We're going to build a gate to Equestria. And we're going to put it near the moon so we can stick lots of solar arrays on it for power.

And we're not going to test it first. Just build it and go with it.

Nothing will go wrong.

>>29964050
Oh sorry, thats what I meant, as in two weeks of reruns and then on the third week pony.

>>29964060
Yes.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cvhGp9t2AU

>>29964076
for the love of god let me go first

>>29964032
Obviously the answer to that question is RD, still. She traitored the fuck out of those ponies. Even slept on a clour while ponyville was in chaos.
She was more of a traitor in this episode than in last.

Alright, let's see what youtube captioning gave us this week!

Usually we see lots of political stuff, but today we're starting out with juvenile humor! What a twist.

More as I continue watching.

>>29964024
Alright, saved. We'll get something going here soon, Krek.

Also, my OTP right here.

>>29964055
Where was Derpy?
Didn't spot her.

>>29964050
2 confirmed subsequent saturdays with no new eps.
== timespan of three weeks

Plus that's just the known minimum wait. We don't know how long the reruns will last.

>>29964089
She was defending her town, New Cloudsdale. It was the only settlement in Equestria which wasn't in chaos. She was doing a fine job.

>>29964087
But it's going to be on the moon....

>>29964109
During the ending, the walk up to celestia, just before the star wars bit

>>29964109
She was a part of the crowd in Canterlot Castle.

Best part of episode 2, y/n?

>>29964117

Only ponyville was in chaos.

>>29964089
She was still in desaturated mode, though. Begrudging her as a "traitor" is like painting the other characters in varying levels of bitch just because of the circumstance.

>>29964117
She slept
On that fucking cloud
While Ponyville was in chaos
What more do you want until we call her a traitor?

>>29964028
oh hey wow i fucked up the starting frame

The worst part of Episode Two, and this is indisputable: No intro scene because of PREVIOUSLY

THAT'S LIKE AT LEAST HALF A MINUTE OF PONY POTENTIAL WASTED

DAT FUCKING FACE

>>29964130
Cloudsdale itself was in chaos even before Discord started really ramping it up, it makes sense that it was all over.

>>29964100

Captions is pretty sure all is not lost. Or maybe it just didn't notice the color drain?

Didn't like the episode to be honest. Oh well, next one will probably be better.

>>29964076

What if there is already a hidden human observation post on the moon, dedicated to the long distance study of DIMINUTIVE COLORED EQUINES

No /co/, you are the creepy inter-dimensional aliens with voyeuristic intention.

>>29964089
I do believe Trollestia actually had it right this morning.

>>29964159

What the fuck are you talking about retard.

>>29964143
Ponyville wasn't her home, she couldn't stop it. All she could do was defend her real home. Even when she felt she was under attack and had to run, she took her town with her. A true hero.

>>29964028

remember when Twilight almost crushed Pinkie Pie to death with a giant boulder?

>>29964172
Well it did get a major cola storm

>>29964172
You may or may not have actually watched the show, I don't know, but if you actually listen to the dialogue in part one, it was already raining cola there before Discord even started to get REALLY chaotic. But that didn't become a meme, so I guess you wouldn't know about it.

HERE COMES TOM

that was my favorite part. Twilight losing her patience was funny as hell.

>>29964143
I want you to say that all the ponies except twilight were hypnotised into acting against their normal intentions

>>29964162
Clearly they are all judging Twilight and Rarity's home distilled alcohol.

>>29964162

wat

>>29964184
She still hasn't gotten over FPK being a fuckup.

>>29964166
What in the blueberry fuck-muffin is up with that picture?

>>29964109
>>29964143
She was obviously traumatized because she couldn't save Cloudsdale. Discord made her think it was completely destroyed and all she had was that tiny little cloud. Of course we didn't get to see the breakdown because it would be too traumatizing for the core audience.

>>29964199

>mfw Hasbro doesn't watch the show and the toy isn't named "Big Crown Thingie".

Just watched today's episode with my little girl.

Probably the weakest one I've seen. The 'Discord Sage' really feels like it wanted to be three episodes long. I thought things couldn't get more rushed than last week and then this episode happens.

Twilight magics her friends back? Really?

Discord confirmed for Charlie Sheen

If you have the ability to watch MLP on cable TV at your home (US) , and you wish to contribute to the success of the show, tune into it even if you aren't going to watch it for spoilers or if you have to go to work, just put the cable box on HUB or whatever channel it broadcasts on (if it does in your area) and put the sleep timer so the TV doesn't stay on all day.

Doing so will contribute to the show's ratings, which is important if you want it to be a success and wish to contribute to it in the TV ratings.

Thank you :)

>Discord losing

Confirmed for worst episode

>>29964206
CANON

>>29964231
She lost her loyalty completely, even to Cloudsdale. I bet she didn't even check on it.

>>29964197

>Accuses others of not watching the show
>Doesn't know that the "cola" was chocolate milk

Best be trollin' bro

Although he won't be back for the rest of the series, it is likely that Discord will return someday. What will the Ponies of Equestria will do once he return?

>>29964249
>Twilight magics her friends back?

I'm still not sure how people manage to miss things in a show meant for 8 year old girls, but it wasn't just a magical fix-all spell, it was showing them her memories of why they were all friends. It could have been her talking to them, or a photo album, or whatever.

>>29964015

>>29964275
Uh, Rainbow Dash states that Cloudsdale is experiencing a cola storm at the start of S2E1, dumbass. Go watch it.

>>29964251
WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING WINNING?

>>29964249
Well her element is magic

That's like, her thing.

Hai guys.
Ep2 still up here without ads: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I94qcQpU8o
It was a real pain removing all the ads in sony vegas. Had to convert it several times, so it slightly desynced. Why does american TV have sooo many ads :c

>Considering that Fluttershy likes to care for animals, what would happen if Fluttershy herself fell ill?
That description would only be appropriate for a comic/fanfic where said subject is taken up. He only drew a picture of a sad Fluttershy. This does not please me.

>>29964275
It was chocolate milk in ponyville, cola in cloudsdale.

>>29964275
Actually, they did say that it was raining cola in Cloudsdale. Go check.

>>29964206

Truer words were never spoken/captioned.

>Discord's defeat at the end
"Shit, you mean that Elements of Harmony stuff actually works? If I'd known that I might have gotten out of the way."

Then again, wasn't he already defeated with them once? So he really ought to have known better.

>>29964276
He will be featured in a villain revenge party.

And the Mane Six will just blast every villain with the EoH.

>>29964293
>>29964249
It was most likely an illusion spell, like the one Rarity used in Suited for Success.

>>29964089

Problem, bitches?

>>29964249

It was a (supposedly) simple memory spell. The point was that friendship was more powerful than Discord's magic, and each of them rediscovered who they were through their memories.
Twilight just made them remember. She didn't just magic them back.

That clear it up?

>>29964252
That only works if you have a Nielsen's ratings box, and that's only if they approach you with it. Actually tuning in otherwise won't do jack squat. Alternatively, they will occasionally offer booklets in which you manually record the information about what you're watching on television.

>>29964199
>HERE COMES TOM

>that was my favorite part. Twilight losing her patience was funny as hell.
Agreed. I love it whenever Twilight gets fed up and says "FUCK IT ALL." Also, Flutterbitch.

>>29964313

>Considering that Fluttershy likes to care for animals, what would happen if Fluttershy herself fell ill?

Dash have to take care of her, boom s2 episode.

>>29964317
OH MY GOD

>>29964153
I think you need to be replied to more because I very much agree with the point you have made.

>>29964321

The only part about that I didn't get is how he somehow failed to notice the ponies were back to their original colors. It was sort of obvious his effects were dispelled. Spike pointed out that the effect was a visible one, that should have clued him in. All he would have had to do then is teleport away.

>>29964334
A better way to support the show, then, is to buy all the fine products advertised in the commercials.

>>29964249
She didn't "magic" her friends back. She showed them memories of all the good times they had and they realized what they were doing.

>>29964330
It's her cloudsdale. She doesn't give a fuck if there's another cloudsdale, she doesn't owe them anything, she can call her town whatever she likes.

>>29964374
Or... You know. Pony.

>>29964231
>>29964231
> She was obviously traumatized
> She was obviously traumatized
> traumatized
and yet there is a retards that trying to justify Discord
FFS

>>29964376
With magic.

>>29964293
It's not that I missed it.

She literally magic'd her friends back. With a memory spell, whatever, a memory spell is still a spell.

It needed to be five different trials, like having to get Liar Jack to tell the truth, getting Stinky Pie to laugh again, etc.

I was watching it with my wife/daughter, noticed there were like six minutes left in the episode and they were still fighting, and told them, "Oh, it's going to be a three-parter" and then BOOM deus ex machina.

>>29964330
Dash thinking her little cloud was the entirety of Cloudsdale was great.

>>29964372
And they could have followed - Discord was practically omnipotent, and the EoH are significantly stronger than him. Obviously the out of show explanation is only having 22 minutes, but Discord was probably pretty aware how powerful the EoH were anyway.

>>29964249
>>29964409
and yet you still missing the point
sigh

>>29964317

Man, what's up with all the dirty captions today? Youtube's mind is really in the gutter.

>>29964231
You know when the character were grayed-out, and then were grayed-out further as time progressed, and they essentially became even worse?
Somewhere in this time frame, the same happened to Rainbow Dash. The first time she was warped under Discord's control, she made the decision to abandon the maze; the second time, she just went "fuck it" and lost her loyalties to everything, either because Cloudsdale wasn't actually destroyed or she just lost her interest in saving it.

>>animated
Curse you animators, implanting Impure pony thoughts.

>>29964409

>Stinky Pie

thats not what we're calling grey Pinkie is it? that sucks.

>>29964406

So what? It still stands that the real magic was in friendship.

>>29962501
I think those designs are great. Fuck the haters.

>>29964409
Twilight using magic to remind her friends about friendship is a dues ex machina, despite magic being her thing, and friendship being the major theme of the show?

Huh.

In any case, while I agree that it would have been BETTER like that, there's nothing wrong with them being snapped out of it relatively easily, and it certainly wasn't out of nowhere - the same thing happened to Twilight with the letters.

>>29964417

It was clear he was caught off guard. The elements are powerful, but the ponies themselves are not omnipotent, and only one is capable of teleportation. They could not in fact have followed him if he didn't want them to.

>>29964317
This is amazing in every way ever.

Best part was Discord drinking glass. What mother fucker can do something that bad ass and then make chocolate milk explode? DISCORD that's who

>>29964446

this is my fetish

>>29964434
Look at me now back to Rarity now back to me

i am now Rainbow Dash

>>29964376
Ah that's bullshit, Twilight obviously won them over by thrusting her pulsating energy-charged horn onto each of them

>>29964448
That's what he's calling her. I just call her Grumpy.

>>29964448
I thought we were calling her PMS Pie

This show is complete crap. I thought it was all supposed to be about friendship, but all I see are mental breakdowns and evil gods of chaos mindraping everyone.

So the key to friendship was lesbian sex all along?

>>29964502

Yes.

>>29964409
>watching it for the ending
the endings always suck bro

I dunno about you but I'm pretty sure most of here watch pony for the journies and not the DEAR PRINCESS CELESTIA endings

>Ponies get ready to defeat Discord
>Pinkie Pie is off guzzling CHOCLIT RAINNNN
"Pinkie Pie!"
"Do we have to do this? I mean, this is fun!"
"It doesn't have to be like this, Pinkie Pie. Join me, and I promise that the fun will never end. I will even agree to leave your friends in peace. Chaos and Laughter, side by side. What do you say?"

Then Discord magics Pinkie Pie and escapes with her. Ponyville is returned to normal. Or is it? To be continued.

>>29964496

I know, isn't it awesome?

>>29964502

>No shit. Expect birth rates in the first world to plummet in the next decade.

>>29964409
She reminded her friends of their friendship. If it weren't done with magic, it would have been done with mere conversation.

Twilight is such a massive dyke. There was so much Twilight Sparkle horn-on-pony action in the second half of this episode it was unbelievable.

>>29964460
only one is NORMALLY capable of teleportation, there's basically no limit to what they can do when they're all acting together. Bear in mind that after they all activated the elements, it took them about 15 seconds to turn what was effectively a god into stone, and then restore potentially the entire world to its previous state. Never mind that Twilight *alone* can take at least one person with her when she teleports, and that's without using the most powerful magic known to ponykind.

>>29964502
Isn't it always?

>>29964409
>Watching it with my wife/daughter
Dude, that's fucking gross.

>>29964501

>>29964372

Perhaps Discord isn't actually a completely negative force, but rather something that is required in the world. Princess Celestia has been using Twilight and her friends for all sorts of things under the guise of teaching her as it is. Discord may have just been another lesson created by Celestia to test the Mane Six. He was supposed to lose, and he knew it.

>>29964502
Pretty much. If your friends are jerks, the answer is sticking your giant phallic imagery in their face and making sparks fly out of the end.

>>29964468
I'd love a GIF of him doing that.

>>29964431

Well, that explains this caption, I guess: >>29964206

>>29964409
Coulda been much better

but it's still great.
The normal episodes should be even better

>>29964556

>>Princess Celestia has been using Twilight and her friends for all sorts of things

>>29964565
>>29964565
>>29964565
>>29964565
Second

>>29964559
Lesbianism saves the day once again.

Discord was a complete retard. End of story.

So, Twilight's new shield spell was friggin sweet.

>>29964275

First 2 minutes of the episode POST opening Rainbow Dash say Cloudsdale is being hit with a Cola storm.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hm-L-nRwacE#t=2m43s

Proof.

>>29964556
I agree, it seemed very much like Discord knew he was going to lose and was all 'whatev' about it.

>>29964587

Chistery is so proud right now.

So anything on Twilight inserting her horn into the mane 6 yet

don't dissapoint me /co/

>>29964594
I know, right. And to think she could barely teleport at the start of s1 - our little pony has come so far

>>29964599
might as well have fun while it lasts

>>29964587
And naturally the problem is caused by the evil influences of men corrupting the minds of the women.

I wish Faust would keep her radical feminism out of MLP

>>29964608
I hope we get more adventure episodes so we can see just how overpowered she is by now.

>>29964559
Speaking of which, has anyone read Romance Reports 13?

>>29964607
Well, hornjobs aren't really a new concept, but I full expect a partial episode rewrite clopfic well before next episode

Friendless Twilight crying in a corner with Kusco

DRAWFAGS MAKE IT HAPPEN!

I'm still amazed at just how many layers of reference and callback and mythology and sight gags they crammed into this for a 22 minute cartoon about magical marshmallow ponies.

Seeing the Strawberry Shortcake episode before it just highlighted the gulf of quality.

Can't wait for next week's episode!

I'd just like to know how you get those captions, I've got nothing.

>>29964448
Francis Pie.

I hate Ponies. I hate towns. I hate apples.

>>29964627
i think theres a clestia one already

>>29964638

HA HA!

Next week.

Oh man I have know I dea what's going on.

Hornjobs? How does that even work?
For a guy I mean.

>>29964621
Fuck that.

>>29964627
I also expect some ponylicking during this hiatus

>>29964556
He's way too boss for that. Why would he voluntarily be turned back to stone again? Even if he knew what he was "supposed" to do, he'd try to get around it. Being chaos and all. The episode only ended the way it did because the story requires him to lose, it didn't really make sense objectively.

>>29964623
Poor Cheerilee didn't get much out of it
Still not as good as the TwiDash chapter

>>29964570
john madden

>>29964530
>>29964409

And Celestia was the one who reminded to the Twi herself about how precious and powerful magic of friendship is thru her own (Twis') letters. isn't she awesome like that? Man, that was so manly_tears.png

Twi itself is like.. Spirit of Friendship and she used the this magic to bring their friendship back. This was obvious.

>>29964642

ITT: People so enamored with a show they can't admit that some episodes will naturally be better than others.

This episode was one of the weaker ones but that doesn't mean the series itself is on the down turn.

Discord was awesome and deserved a better ending that this.

>>29964666
Jesus, JJ has nothing better to do today does he

>>29964409
But that's not what deus ex machina is.

Deus ex machina is an unexplained, unforeseen, and highly improbable device used to solve the conflict. That would've been the case if her friends had turned back to normal on their own for no explicit reason, or if Twilight had a "sudden revelation" as to what she had to do as opposed to reading her old letters to Celestia to remind her what made their friendship special.

>>29964559
Or remembering the good times and reminding them of why you're friends. Don't bail out because of a bad day.

>>29964621

She's going to kill any sons she has. Only daughters for the glorious master race.

>>29964656
A pony giving a hornjob really works best on mares, but I guess anal could work too. Giving a pony a hornjob is basically a blowjob on a horn.

>>29964690
What could possibly be better than this?

Has Weaver agreed to draw Trixie as a single female lawyer yet? ;_;

>That razzle dazzle

Obligatory reference to having a fetish for being drenched in chilled, candy-flavored pony semen

>>29964666
Yeah, nevermind the fact that it was Corrupted Big Mac that licked Twilight, meaning doing that is the opposite of what he's normally do. Let's use it as shipping fuel anyway!

Yes, I'm just mad he still hasn't even met Fluttershy.

>>29964599
...Did we watch the same thing? He was nonchalant because he knew it wasn't going to work. When it did, he was surprised as fuck.

>>29964674
True, true. Surprising romance is the best romance
I think it just appealed to my unending hunger of teachers in sexy situations

>>29964687

He is never coming back, deal with it.

>>29964690
It's a saturday.

>>29964690
He streams pony drawings for eleven hours every day it seems.

He never does anything else.

>>29964667
Why not? He ruled for hundreds of years, he's probably bored. Waiting for the ponies to die out so he can fuck with whatever comes after

>>29964687
>one of the weaker ones
cool opinion bro

>>29964681
Yeah man the letters part was moving.

Man I love Celestia even more now.

Sucked for spike though

>>29964687
I bet you didn't like Feeling Pinkie Keen or Over a barrels either. There's a thing called an opinion. You seem to think yours is fact.

>>29964699

>blowjob on horn
>sparks shoot out
>burn mouth horribly

>>29964705

>Bitching about shipping
>Request rape to all the artist.

>>29964687
Yeah, this was pretty much down there with Green Isn't Your Color level of quality, and that's a real disappointment.

>>29964687
Umm, no, it's actually one of the best episodes of the series.

>Twilight gives up hope.
>Twilight desaturates.
>Twilight's element is magic.
> Despair <-> Magic

Oh god Twilight Sparkle is a Meguca.

>>29964718

>>29964570

Okay, I admit it: there's nothing particularly funny about this caption. But when I paused it, I thought it said 'ore,' and that got me thinking: what did they do with Discord, anyway? I mean, Celestia's not stupid enough to leave him lying around her garden again, is she?

I'm just guessing here, but I think maybe I know where the silica to make that stained-glass window in the last scene came from...

Anyway, that's it for today. Until next time (whenever 'next time' is. Hopefully not long!)

>>29964706
That's true, the buildup was nice
I'll never have poetry read to me by a young, driven, sexy teacher ;_;

Are you?

>>29964687
Some episode are,

I just thought this was a good one overall.

Made some changes.

>>29964691
What, it surprises you? People have been inflating the definitions of and thereby ruining perfectly good terms for a while now, man. Mary Sue, for example.

>>29964740

>>29964753
No but I'm drunk if it helps.

>>29964721
Gonna just throw this out there: Celestia can't use the power of the EoH anymore, so she helped the only other way she could. She's like Doctor-tier in in terms of fighting with her brain instead of her hooves. Both season premieres support this.

>>29964729
They're magic sparks, it probably wouldn't burn, but you'd get quite a shock. I guess that's part of the appeal.

>>29964749
Celestia and Luna couldn't destroy him the first time. I don't see how they could do anything worse to him this go around.

It was doubly awesome because it meant Celestia kept each and every letter Twilight sent her

>>29964812
It's possible only Discord can make explosives out of common things that he held in his hand, because only he can manipulate things to become volatile.

Like Gambit.

so where did discord get all the chocolate milk from

>>29964751
I know that feel...
Kind of...

>>29964830
>Twilight in the stocks
>Mindbreak
>Consensual
Keep telling yourself that.

>>29964777
>>29964777
She is indeed wise and smart.
Imagine what could SHE do with her potential and knowledge if she still was connected to EoH.
Probably it wouldn't be a stone prison anymore.

PONY OVERWHELMING!


It is a good pain...

>>29964816
So it could kill you. You just have to trust they won't. Putting your life in their hooves. What could be better?

I'll answer that for you - a unicorn and a pegasus, pegasus flies high up into the sky, then they both drop. Unicorn holds the pegasus' wings down, and the pegasus has to break their concentration before they hit the ground. Both of their lives in each others hooves.

Canon.

So what other intimate detail do I feel intrigued to write a little note about this time...?

>>29964859

8 viewers? You people make me sick.

get the fuck in here

>>29964749
>I mean, Celestia's not stupid enough to leave him lying around her garden again, is she?

Yes. Yes she is. It's a powerful lesson to everyone to be nice to each other. Otherwise Discord will escape again.

It's not like Celestia was bothered by anything Discord did. She was sitting in her palace, sipping tea, looking out the window to see Ponyville in chaos and nearly killing a baby dragon by force-feeding him letters.

When Discord escaped she pretended to be upset to the ponies, but she really had a good laugh about it all. Vetinari's got nothing on Celestia.

>>29964859

>>29964890

you didn't say a thing luna, because you apparently don't exist.

>>29964738
Not quite, I think.

Freindship is Magic, yes? Well, when her friends abandoned her, she was alone, and friendless, and since she knew she couldn't do anything without her friends, she lost her confidence in her magic and... voila... washout monochrome.

>>29964820
This physically hurt to read.

>>29964820
It also has to come out of nowhere for it for be considered deus ex machina. Something that wasn't alluded to, mentioned, or in any way hinted at.

>>29964827
You don't have to worry about giving constructive criticism if it's valid.

It's being a dick about it that's the problem.
Thanx for the input, guys.

>>29964853

Yes...and did you notice that they were almost all still sealed? Either Celestia re-seals every letter she gets after she reads them, or she just had a whole stack of unopened friendship reports filling up her closet and was like, "Huh. Maybe I should give these back? Couldn't hurt with the whole 'remember friendship' thing, I suppose.'"

>>29964890
>Luna is good

nope

>>29964892
The wings, of course.

>>29964827
>Didn't say it yesterday though because didn't want to sound rude
Why do people do this? I certainly hope you guys don't hold back on me while critiquing my art for fear of sounding rude. Constructive criticism is the only way for artists to know what areas of their work need improvement.

Anyway, I should probably leave right now before the storm of "hurry up and finish your group shot, you said you'd have it done by today!" hits and I become a total pariah...

>>29964820
>Last time on TVTropes...

>>29964910
Oh my god did you seriously just...

I'm sorry, I'm going over here to throw up.

Twilight getting frustrated provided some of the best lines of the episode.
>necklace

>>29964812
You are trying to find cause and effect in pure chaos anon.
It exploded because it was completely chaotic. Chocolate milk doesn't explode like a grenade.

THis means that the milk Pinkie drank can or can't be explosice. I'd say it can't be explosive because we are expecting it; therefore it wouldn't be chaotic and so Pinkie is completely safe.

Spike's uncontrollable letter vomit made me harder than Discord.

>>29964869
I still say she has some pretty powerful magic.

The elements are the most powerful magic known to ponykind.
Discord is also the spirit of chaos. It makes sense that he's more powerful then Celestia and Luna.
But that dosn't mean she isn't also insanly powerful.

Well, I'll have to watch this episode again then.
>>29964918
I do it because it's hammered to our heads in english classes that you gotta be polite when speaking english.

>>29964853
> mfw when she knew
> she knew that once Twi would need those letters

man, this is so magically awesome so I could just SQUUEEE!!!

I also have to repeat that I loved the whole thing with Discord's throne. How it was black and red with red diamonds on it.

>>29964890
I TOLD YOU

JUDAS LUNA

...but I expected Discord to be top. Oh well, I'll take it.

>>29964918
Would you (or anybody) post something that you drew, I'd just like to know each person's style.

>>29964913

Maybe sealed letters are somehow easier for a dragon to process?
Fuck if I know.

>>29964863
That was one of the two. The other is SB's work coming in whenever he feels like drawing it (if ever, I'm putting no pressure on him about it).

>>29964914
So, you agree that she is evil and it will kill every fanon about her?

>>29964974

Nobody gives a shit about your fanon retard.

>>29964334
>>29964288

Both of you, wrong. Thats NOT how the ratings work. Tuning in to watch TV on MLP IS PART OF THE RATINGS and you can be too by doing so.

Ignorant, or troll. State thy case and quit trolling people into not supporting a show they like with falsified information.

>>29964991

They already say she is good.

Also, he seemed like he didn't expect it to work for some reason of another.

>>29965025
They ran out of time. If they'd done it across four episodes, or even three, it would've been better. But for what they had, I think they did a really good job.

People were saying they missed that the first time, and I really can't see how.

>>29965078
Hey, I gave you my reason, he seemed like he wasn't expecting it to work, and then when we started getting those crazy shapelines flying out of the elements he was like huhwut? I guess he just didn't think it was gonna work or something.

Yea, yea its an easy excuse.

>>29964967
I don't consider telling someone "hey, your wings are a little bit off" or "the eyes look kind of funny" or "the head looks kinda weird in this picture" to be impolite at all. There's a distinct difference between honest, constructive criticism and being a dick.

"Your shading could use a little improvement."
"Twilight's horn is lopsided in this picture."
"I think you made Octavia's hair a little too scruffy."

>I'm sure we'll have full coverage and videos later on of Jayson Thiessen at BroNYcon, but currently I have some data from Zebranky who was posting information up over on the irchighway channel. Here's a little preview of what was said.

>Jayson was asked if Equestria was a planet or country. He said that they've referred to the planet as earth before, so there may be a border.

>When asked if there was going to be more Derpy, he said yes, and there may even be a specific Derpy bit.

>There will be more two part episodes.

>There is an episode that will be coming out that gets kind of scary.

>Was asked about Sea Ponies, Jayson said its been mentioned but.... (so no sea ponies, sho be do).

>Was asked about pony parents. Jayson said we may see some more.

>Someone asked where ponies get their glue. Jayson's reply: "What kind of question is that? That's terrible! They get it from the store like everyone else!"

>Soundtrack release has pretty much always been in the plans for release.

>Was asked if he has been contracted for a third season, said if he answered it, he'd get fired.

>Crowd asked him to sing the CMC song, reply: "I could go home right now if you like. I'm the director, not a performer."

>Asked if he ever considered including OCs from the fandom in the show; Reply: "No, we don't want to do that. It gets too much into fan service. I mean, you guys fell in love with the show we're making, right? So why don't we just keep making that show?"

>And Jayson let "slip" there will be a new villain.

>Basically confirmed that the ending today was indeed based on Star Wars. (They should have had Spike do a Chewbaca growl).

>More to come later.

>>29965186

good point

>>29965024

here is HOW those are translated into the 'rest' of the population

universal ratings report from cable boxes and digital TV reports the channels they are on

the impression samples (meters, journal studies) measure who is in front of the TV when an who is watching, the universal sample cannot as its just a total of which cable boxes and digital channels are on at the time

you divide the impressions (meter samples, and journals) into the universal sample (the boxes) and apply the US census to translate your demographics

THE RATINGS ARE THUSLY FORMED :)

Sadly it cannot be summed up in that tiny article presented, it misses out on several things, and if you go by the article you still do not get the formula for how the ratings are formed (the question imo, was now answered)

Here this may inform you better. Its longer but if you make it to the end you will hear the equation I just recited.

If the broken heart teardrop thing bugs you, just explain it away as a physical magic manifestation from the super magic pony's subconscious. She even had the element of magic on at the time.

Okay. His art is terrible and the only thing I've seen on the internet since my first encounter with goatse that's made me want to vomit uncontrollably.

His figures are always distorted in a way that is aesthetically unappealing, he has no grasp of 'on model', and his 'off model' is repulsive to look at purely as a function of his character design and body structure.

His lines are always garbled and poorly defined, he can only draw characters that are grotesquely distorted in some way...

That is exactly how the current system works.

All cable boxes and all digital cable tv automatically has to include the channel its on, theres no reason for that information not to be used, and the all-digital movement that happened awhile ago was done partly in response to the constant monopoly lawsuits against nielsen media research (whom I worked for at the time, before the lawsuit resulted in several facilities for the studies to be closed and shrunk down to very small sizes as the 'all digital' information took its place)

The idea that people actually watching a TV program do not participate in any way in the ratings, is old and false and does not reflect the new all-digital TV ratings system.

>>29965092
i swear i almost shed a tear too when Twilight turned grey...

This is random, but is it bad that I think a good Derpy episode would be a Christmas Special?

Think about it.

>But there is a Santa Hooves in Ponyville, Twilight!
>No, Pinkie Pie! The Magic of Christmas comes from family, and so do the presents!
>No really, sugarcube, she ain't lying! Every year presents are found in Ponies houses and nopony knows why.
>...What?

CUE TO PONYVILLE MAIL DEPARTMENT
>Oh no, it's happenin' again this year! All these packages...
>I always get them mixed up, too.
>Come on, Ditzy! Pull it together! At least they leave me muffins on the Christmas Eve all nighter...

...Something dumb like that. I wish I could make it make more sense, but in my head Derpy is delivering packages and they get all mixed up every Christmas Eve, so people think there is a real Santa Claus in Ponyville and Twilight goes nuts trying to solve the mystery.

>>29965137
>people actually asking whether OCs or fanfics will be included

Seriously?

And then the part asking him to sing and shit, I wonder if he was actually pissed. I would've been. Fuck those faggots I wouldn't even have talked to those morons.

>>29965548
>Christmas special

Nnnnnno, Let's not do that.

>>29965137
I guess something like this Star Wars ending would be the type of thing they were talking about when they said "more pop culture references" In that one thing from a little while ago.

why would ponies have christmas

was there a christpony

>>29965548
>something dumb like that
that's an accurate summary, I'd say

>>29965543
24 hours without sleep leaves me in poor control of my emotions. I very much shed a tear. Though to be fair I was already on the edge from them beating the shit out of each other.

Why aren't you going to the deep south to find a farm gal like AJ to marry?

Nod to the fans, fine, but the fanon is terrible.

>Derpy bit

meaning something like her grabbing a twig, dropping things on Twilight and getting in trouble, or an episode revolving around her?

>>29965579

because there will never be a farm gal as good as Applejack

>>29965563
>>29965571
>>29965572

Yeah, suffice to say the idea was a lot cuter/more sensible in my head. I'm sorry.

As for why they'd have Christmas, well, that's a big thing in any fantastic setting with Christmas Specials. It doesn't have to be Christmas, just some sort of gift-giving-winter-holiday rip off.

It'd probably come off as a repeat of Pinky Keen, anyway.

>>29965570
Honestly, that's the kind of pop-culture reference that's tolerable to me. It's very clear what it's a take on, but it's not elbowing you in the kidney to tell you HEY LOOK LOOK STAR WARS GET IT
