Also awesome!

Starting topic: Your single favorite fanart ever.

OP pic is mine.

so i was watching the winter wrap up video and i noticed a couple things about the ponies in ponyville, 1 there is a shit ton of unicorn, and that all of them are female, 2 there isnt a single male Pegasus that i saw, i know there is at least one (the moving guy) but other than that it seems that all the male ponies of ponyville are earth ponies

Friendship is of the dark arts

If you play "Giggle at the Ghostly" backwards it says "Pinkie is dead."

I agree.

>>24511297
fuck you my shit is better

j/k love you

>>24511297
You can't make me choose.

>>24511308
I've only seen 2 Male Unicorns so far and thats Snails and Snips

>>24511235
This is lacking hidden messages about the death of one of the ponies.

>>24511308
Watch other epsiodes. We see a ton of male pegasi in Cloudsdale during Sonic Rainboom

So if we go by how they're standing:

Rarity = John Lennon. Sort of works, Lennon was arguably the most "artistic" of the four.

Pinkie Pie = Ringo Starr. THIS WORKS SO WELL.

Rainbow Dash = Paul McCartney. Some reports say Paul was the show-offy jerk of the group. So yeah.

Twilight Sparkle = George Harrison. The quiet, intellectual Beatle. Yep.


This was really well done.

>>24511368
not sure if mad

>>24511235
Where am I?

>>24511380
oh i know but i figured Cloudsdale counted as outside of Ponyville

Fluttershy is the fifth Beatle!

Applejack is the other fifth Beatle!

Derpy is the π Beatle.

"Dash is a dead gal, miss 'er, miss 'er, miss 'er." (as sung by Rarity)

Rainbow Dash died on a monday, it was during one of her acrobatic flying excercises. Very tragic, they say it was because she was trying to do a 'Sonic Rainboom' but got distracted by another pony. She crashed, broke her head and well...

Also, there's been said that there are clues in "Applebuck Orchards Forever" but that's just an old pony's tale.

A FAQ can be found by clicking on the header in the shop, give it a read!

Newest additions:
NOTHING. AJ freckle shirt is a wash and the entire design is now scrapped, I couldn't make it work no matter how hard I tried.

Current requests:
- A custom Applejack or Exploding Twice shirt
- Something involving Vinyl Scratch
- Derpy "I am not a clever pony" shirt
Unless it's a ridiculously good request, I'm not taking any more right now, and current requests might take a bit to get done.

All of my commissions will be donated to the Hasbro Children's Hospital, and I've already donated $25 of my own money.

http://shirtsbyshift.spreadshirt.com/
Night !Shift4J19Y's shop, can't help with any specific questions, but general merch questions can be answered in my FAQ.

Also, Spreadshirt is looking into getting pink men's shirts for design.

>>24511403
Celestia, you are George Martin.

Which means your picture is not on the album cover despite the fact that without you, the group would not exist.

>>24511520

And two Applejacks. Some of those are concept characters. Other's, I believe, are OC. This originated from ponychan, didn't it?

>>24511520

the only different is one has wings

>>24511533
i feel like the design would be better placed on the back of the shirt, since cutie marks are essentially on the pony ass

>>24511520
Fluttershy and Posey

kind of like RD and Firefly and Applejack and ......Applejack

Which fapfic made you feel better?

>>24511567
Fashion over accuracy. While that'd be more accurate, having it on the back corner would be like wearing a blank shirt, seeing as barely anyone would ever notice the cutie mark.

>>24511669
You should design some of the Fluttershy ones that way. At the moment I'm planning on wearing an open shirt over it so people won't so obviously stare at me.

>>24511669
understandable, though honestly while i enjoy ponies, if it was slightly more subtle i would be more likely to buy it

>>24511475
Your point being?

>>24511644
This.

>>24511520
Lauren's original pitch used somewhat different versions of the characters. Including, among other things, a white, winged Pinkie Pie, (named Surprise) and an Earth Pony Fluttershy (named Posey.)

They're in this pic as a reference to the original cover, where the Beatles appear in the center, and photos of themselves when they first started the band are off to the left, so there are two of each Beatle.

yes

What, I'm not allowed to like autism and ponies? My wife taught autistic kids for a while. Autistic kids rock.

So where should I go for pony fics? I've only seen a few scattered here and there. I'm assuming not ffnet?

>>24511725
Doesn't matter. All this "stop responding to trolls" bullshit just stifles discussion. If people want to speak their mind, they can, whether they're talking to trolls or not.

The troll feels like he's fooling someone, and the person responding gets to harmlessly vent.

>>24511664

>>24511707
>>24511708
The thing is, the shirts I've made are generally pretty damn subtle, excluding the 20% Cooler and Yay. shirts, which were made on request. I honestly felt if I put the design on the back corner, you might as well be wearing a blank, colored shirt, and I'd hate to have people paying for something like that.

>implying that dose anything.

>>24511834
Oh okay.

I was also wondering if you could make the yellow on the male Fluttershy shirt more faded. Right now, at least from the site, it seems very bright and doesn't match her coloring very well. That is if it's not too much trouble.

>>24511815
i dunno, why dont you explain to me why i should exchange one busted piece of shit for another

>>24511834
it's gotta be some mod i installed, but i have no fucking idea which one. i managed to make it stop by restarting it but now it's randomly frozen again so what the fuck is going on? what fucking mod fucks with something as basic as a mouse pointer?

>>24511765
Just remember
I pulled my punches
Now go read other things I wrote

Hey, I'm trying to get better at colouring and shadows and stuff.
Anyone know how to make GIMP not want to replace everything when I fill in a similar colour?

>>24511872
Sadly, I can't do that. If I could, I would, but the fault for this one is on Spreadshirt. I don't have that many color options to choose from, for some certain shirts I had to make do. Sometimes it turned out looking great, like the Trixie shirts, sometimes not, like the Fluttershy yellow men's shirts. It's a damn shame.

I've been advising everyone to do this, if you've got a problem with the available colors for shirts and such, give Spreadshirt and email and complain.

>>24511921
Don't know about GIMP, but in PS you can select the area where it takes effect.

d you know what I hate? THIS. DO YOU THINK PONIES ARE MADE OF RUBBER OR PLASTIC OR SOMETHING.WHY WOULD A PONY BE SHINY AND REFLECTIVE!?

honest question guys im a virgin do you think if i told people i like ponies i will stay a virgin longer? Ffffffff i dont want to hide it but i also need to get laid

>>24512204
it pisses me off even more when porn artists do this
do they think that the human body sheds gallons of oil in the throes of passion or something

i was just wondering
is the dragon thing the ONLY boy in the mlp universe

That sounds incredibly sad. I'll do it!

It may take a day or two, though.

On that note: did we ever decide on who Dinky's father is?

>>24512204
because they are plastic toys?

>>24512238
Nope.

>>24512204
Maybe her coat is just that glossy after all that grooming at the spa.

>>24512113
That could work. That said, I'd have to consider it, but it'd work.

>>24512144
Don't take this the wrong way, but that was a dumb email to send.

Simply put, no matter what Hasbro's internal stance is on it, the official answer will be that it's not allowed, period flat, even though they won't act on it. They can't come out and say, "Hey, it's totally okay to make fan merchandise, no problem!" That'd lead into a super shitstorm. They HAVE to say that it's absolutely not allowed, even if they don't plan on doing anything about it.

>>24512256

That's not how it works you stupid fucking foal. Learn some God damn pony anatomy, holy shit.

When the cold of winter comes
Starless night will cover day
In the veiling of the sun
We will walk in bitter rain

But in dreams
I can hear your name
And in dreams
We will meet again

When the seas and mountains fall
And we come, to end of days
In the dark I hear a call
Calling me there,
I will go there
And back again

I remember Shoe Brony having some trouble at the beginning, but everything got fixed up and he's been fine since.

And honestly, a C&D is much, much better than the other options Hasbro has. I'd take one of those with quiet dignity any day.

I could always get into legal theorizing here, seeing as Poultron did some minor internet sleuthing and saw that Hasbro didn't have the cutie marks copyrighted, combined with some other legal factors, but that's a topic for a later day.

Good news, might get you laid quicker.
Bad news, it will be a homosexual relationship.

FUCK Y'ALL, FURFAGS.

>>24512256
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the way the fan theory developed was as follows:

1- Derpy's Eisenhower Administration crossover fic mentions her falling in love with a fork who is secretly a girl. Her name: Cloydes.

2- Someone spots a little unicorn hanging around Derpy in the background of an episode. It's decided that she is Derpy's child, Dinky Hooves

3 - A Pegasus having a unicorn baby is explained by the fact that Derpy hatched Dinky from an egg. Except that makes no sense.

4 - It makes sense if the father is Cloydes the fork, who is still a girl.

5 - No, that just raises further questions!

6 - Maybe Doctor Whooves is the father. Dinky is going to grow up to marry David Tennent.

7 - Wait, that's weird.


So to answer your question, I don't know.

>>24512434
>>24512395

What's funny about this troll is that he picks a thread where there is absolutely no 34 to point to.

Now there probably will be, but still. made me giggle a bit.

>>24512368

Apparently everyone considers him to be some sort of Rarity hallucination.

But yeah, I found it wierd to. As it means that Celestia most likely have more siblings other than Luna.

Luna is to small, and the Unicorn nephew is probably not more than a thousand years old.

>>24512500
what's funny is that you're feeding him

Hey Pacce, we said all sorts of bad stuff about you after you left last night, even though asked us not to.

they cant bear to think that luna would give herself to anyone but them

>>24512511

That about sums it up now back to Phil with sports.

>>24512626
I actually like her having a kid, even if I won't regularly write her as such sense it messes up my usual character dynamic, I'll just have Dinky be her cousin.
And any interpretation of her can be good if it's done well.

How about you give us a break for a change. There's 149 threads bro...on this board, on every board. Doesn't really matter if 3 of them are ponies does it?

stop just F5'ing the front page, that's the chump way to browse.

>>24512626
Derpy is kind of a blank slate at the moment. We see in her what we want to and perhaps a little about ourselves. She's kind of like the silent protagonist of a video game. We project onto her what we are like. Therefore, there are many ways to interpret Derpy. Mostly though she's just silly.

Because we're a bunch of bored retards, just like yourself.

>>24512633
I disagree, I feel that the "That's nice honey, go get a juice box" style response to trolls doesn't quite encourage them at all. Plus, it's fun to patronize them a bit. Oh well, opinions.

>>24512682
>>24512756
Because I enjoy it. Pretty simple, eh?

>>24512741
Last time I played a silent character (Gordon Freeman) he came across as really, really dull. I use the mailpony backstory for Derpy to prevent her from falling into the same Pit of No Emotion that so many vidya characters do.

Also, isn't it a bit wierd that Derpy gets drawn in space but Crossette doesn't?

>>24512756
Ponies are adorable. And awesome. Is there any further explanation needed? When you have those two elements you can't go wrong. Also its a good show. Definitely an improvement over previous generations of MLP.

Oh Derpy. You can't hold onto a briefcase. You don't have fingers! Silly filly.

>>24512880
>I have been given any great reasons.
What?

>>24512863
You could watch it and form your own opinions on it. Since opinions are kind of unique.

You could have already been though most of the episode in the amount of time you've been in this thread asking.

>>24512866

So basically you like to jump on every bandwagon that passes by?

>>24512880

Maybe because when something is GOOD it becomes popular?

When something is BAD it's usally ignored.

Why do you think people would prefer watching say, Rango over Mars Meets Moms?

>>24512880
>>24512863
Because ponyfags are pedobears who project their sick fantasies onto farm animals instead. Think about it.

Furfags.

>>24512900

I have seen it.
It seemed, like I said before, over-the-top and ridiculous, where as the only reason people enjoyed it was because of it's few daw moments and ridiculousness.
But to me, that just sounds like a fad.

Guys! Guys! Help me found acceleration!

Anyone older than 6 who watches this show is better off serving the world by killing themselves.

>>24512915
Awful logic. Anything popular is not automatically good, nor is it necessarily bad.

>>24512915

Do you want me to go into an in-depth discussion here? Because I will.

>>24512948
Fuck the world.

>>24512906

No, you're just so astoundingly fuckstupid it hurts. How you're unable to wrap your head around the concept this discussion is just mind-boggling.

The irony... it... burns...

>>24512810
>>24512959
K-ON bro weren't you here yesterday? It's just a fun show with cute characters, any reasoning we give you isn't going to be anything new to you. Watch the first few episodes and draw your own conclusions, maybe you'll like it maybe you wont. But we love and tolerate the shit out of you either way.

ON THE SUBJECT OF PONYFAGS:

They're pedophiles. They watch a show designed for kids, with child-like characters and plots. It's less obvious than if they watched shows with human main characters, but this way they don't get branded as the sick fucks that they are. The fact that some are furries also helps.

>>24512971

>>24512948
You may as well talk to a brick wall. These people have convinced themselves that obsessing and masturbating over this show is perfectly healthy. The MLP fanbase is literally the most deluded one yet.

>>24512578
>>24512756
>>24512785
>>24512906
>>24512959
If you want there to be less pony threads, avataring and eating up the image count will only create new ones faster.

>>24512863
Its funny, its random, characters are well defined, there's conflict, there's action, the plots are pretty simple and designed so they can be enjoyed by a younger audience but not so simple that older people can't also enjoy it, there's the potential for more epic plot lines and the creator has stated she would like to do so, its well done, the design is beautiful, the creators listen to what the fans want (see the canonization of Derpy Hooves), the characters are written to be likable even when it seems like you wouldn't be interested in them (never thought I would be able to identify with any aspect of Rarity until Suited for Success), ponies are adorable, do you need me to keep going with this?

>>24512959
Armchair philosophy from some dumpass teenager about why popular things aren't always good and good things aren't always popular...no thanks, I've read more than enough of that garbage on /a/ to last me a whole lifetime.

IT'S GONE! IT'S GONE! YOUR SPAM THREAD IS GONE! HAAAHAAAAAHAA!

But seriously, why do you watch MLP? Not trolling this time. It's an honest question.

>>24512863

Because it's pure, started from some elements, what each pony represented.
Then it's not as girly as the previous versions. Altough the main caracters are girls (and it creates a nice environment), it's still fun.

>>24512995

I agree with some of these reasons, and I respect that.
But some of these are more opinion-based.

THIS is how you troll. It's a art, kids. Jumping into a general thread for a show opposing the show slightly, using K-ON! and Lucky Star reaction images is a beautiful, delicate touch, seeing as trolls often said that MLP is the K-ON! or moe anime of western animation, it's a quality job.

Simple "furfag" "pedophile" "show for little girls" arguments are shoddy trolls. Step your game up! Marcus, PSP.

No one had colored this, so I did. Tried out some basic shadowing, and used a bit of a background from a wallpaper.

Your thoughts?

>>24512995
Because it's a troll. Why do you think they're using K-ON! pictures? They want a shitstorm, but you guys are just too strong to give in

Also, not a broney, just here to save some Yui pictures.[

>>24512988

I see your end of the discussion has come to a close. Not implying there was anything to discuss other than you being so helplessly stupid of course.

>>24513014
Thanks PS3 for making games for us real gamers

>>24512987
Not like /co/ has girls on it or anything

Can't speak for the pony-porn-posters, but I lurk because I like the show. The fact that the creator lurks here and changes even a small part the show to make us happier is nice.

>>24513014
>Simple "furfag" "pedophile" "show for little girls" arguments are shoddy trolls

And yet those insults likely describe much of the MLP fans.

Why would I be a pedophile? They're too small!

>>24512959
Not that guy, but:
Yumi Nikki, Time Fcuk, Aquaria, Gish and VVVVVV are all rather unpopular video games, but very good.

Music: De Kift is an unknown band, but is also very good.

Just to give you a few examples. Of course, if something is good it will generally get attention, but this is no guarantee. And if I'd agree with your view of 'if it's good it will get attention' I'd also agree that pre-mentioned items are bad and they are really not. It's all perspective, ain't it?

>>24512973

like the spa twins

that was a /co/ thing (specifically, from flockdraw), then made canon

Alright, it's pony time.

If each of the pony characters played in a generic RPG, what kind of classes would they play?

Would Dash play something like a Barbarian?
Pinkie a Bard?
Derpy multi-classing into level one everything?

>>24513063
blame MS, he named it

>>24513040
For the childrens' sake, I HOPE none are underage b&.

Why do you like the show? Can you point to elements that you especially enjoy? Why watch this and not something that's less...niche?

I mean no trolling this time; these are honest questions.

>>24513067
I think that was just a coincidence honestly.

>>24513058

...You're more agreeing with me than arguing.
You do realize that, right?
The entire debate has been about how popular things aren't necessarily good.

>>24513057
Yeah I only like the young adult fillies myself

No pedo

>>24512880
Well, here's the problem with that:

quality is subjective.

No answer we give you will really satisfy you, because the things we like about it may not appeal to you.

Either accept that different people have different tastes than yourself, or watch the show yourself and make up your own mind. Either way, it's not our responsibility to justify our tastes to you.

In other words.

We know her name is Applejack. And no, she doesn't taste like apples.

We discuss what we like!

>>24513091
Oops, wrong guy.

Anyway, I am not looking to argue; like to see myself as a bridge builder.

Hey guys /v/illain here

Can someone explain to me in a single concsise sentence why this show is popular and you like it so much?

Please and thank you!

>>24513086
Well, for one, I'm a girl, so I'm probably not the gender you're actually curious about. But, I have little sisters, 3, and having a show I can tolerate and watch with them is nice. The creator isn't a conceited jackass and interacts with the fans, the characters are humorous, and you know... it's just CUTE. But, refer again to spoilers.

>>24513114
I'm asking why you like it. If I asked that about Star Wars or Blade Runner, I'd get answers such as "the special effects", "the romance", "character interaction"...

So what's yours for MLP? At this point, I really just want to hear why.

>>24513125
Vidi, veni, vici!

>>24513077
Actually, Dash would be a fighter who dual wields, like Lloyd from the Tales series. I can hear her say: "One sword is cool, so two swords is 200% cooler, right?"

Twilight would be reading the strategy guide, then get mad when she can't pull off the moves. She gets mad when she gets countered, yelling about how her cancelled move should have given her invincibility for several frames and that the video game company cant code.

>>24513151

>That picture

I don't understand. Could you explain it me more?

>>24513151
Be like that, but you do have a reason for it making you happy. Your reluctance to think or explain is suggestive.

I still don't get it. Does that mean you guys only like the show because its popular?

so i just remembered about my old fanfics that i wrote when i was 11. these actually arent all of them but these are genuinely dreadful. i wonder if i am actually any better at writing now than i was back then. feel free to read these if you want to read some REALLY fucking bad animal crossing/sonic fanfiction.

ps: these arent even all of them but i dont know if i even have them. there were some i was even ashamed of when i was 11, if that tells you anything.

Agreed. Its one of the reasons I cant stand the Legend of Zelda series

>>24513192
Yes, because us ponyfags all have each other's cell phone numbers and addresses and we can force what one dipshit is doing in another board.

I hope he gets banned as much as you do, but complaining in here won't do anything.

>>24513187
>'I should give it a watch then so I could go and draw my own conclusions from it.'
This is the only correct answer when asked: 'Why do you (fags) like this show?'

>>24513192

Maybe you should tell the people on /tg/. This is /co/, retard.

No, they lust after the characters and are too ashamed to admit it. I'm open to alternative explanations.

Hey man, K-On reaction images are my territory.

>>24513141
The element I enjoy the most is probably the character development. After a few episodes, you start to get attached to them, and they become very rounded. In addition, I love the character designs, the voice acting is terrific, and the animation is incredibly well done And I hated flash before this.

That's the sort of thing you were looking for, right?

Pic unrelated.

>>24513212

Friendship isn't a valid argument.

>>24513174
Not the guy you were talking to, but

You make it sound like it's some sinister hidden motive. The show's fun. The jokes are funny, the characters are well written, and the animation style is visually appealing.

Sup Bronies, sorry to say but: Dr.Whoof, your arguments are now all invalid

Actually, for me it just boils down to: my life is stressful, and sometimes unhappy, and MLP is a very happy show that is very relaxing and funny.

It makes me feel better, and it's bright and cheerful without being obnoxious and stupid. There are very few shows that can pull that off.

>>24513276
See, now that's what I was asking about. When people deny that they have a reason, that suggests something they feel they'd be ostracized for talking about.

Only thread on /tg/ I saw about ponies was about a ponies role-playing game. So that's on topic. Just like a thread about the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon would be on topic here on /co/.

But you don't see me acting like a bitch every time such a thread starts.

>>24511977
Chubby Rarity isn't bad, but outfit is far to drab for rarity, Manface Twillight, and terribad wig AJ and Fluttershy.

Least Dash managed to integrate the look and capture the personality in her choice of clothes, why would the sloppiest pony have the most though-out outfit...

>>24512859
thanks man

Don't like this show.

Watched the eps you recommended.

It's just bland to me. I'm happy you all like it but I can't seen the appeal.

I'm pretty sure if you try to explain something as hard as you can to a retard, its all a waste of time because int the end they're still retarded.

Unfortunately for the lot of you, in attempting to do so you are all now retarded as well.

>>24513091

Here you want reasons for why the show is good:

1.) The animation is done well and the characters are enjoyable to watch within the show.
2.) The "adventures" they partake in are great and they usually have a mythical creature which adds some tension and drama to the actions taking place, not saying this makes for a great show but if it's done well it can add something engaging to watch.
3.) I feel that their are enough comedic elements within the show that make watching it an enjoyable experience.
4.) The characters all have unique personalities that could be explained to people even if they never saw the show and you didn't describe what they looked like or what their job was. Which makes for dynamic stand alone characters which you can invest interest in and watch them progress within the show without them seeming bland.
5.) The fan base is part of the draw to the show, I get quite a kick out of all the fan art, stories, threads, etc. which expand on a show that is already enjoyable to me.
6.) The morals of the stories are tied in well and when an episode ends there is a satisfying conclusion, this show is also able to appeal to a greater audience then just little girls and has been stated by the creator herself.

Do I need more reasons for why the show is enjoyable/ popular, because I feel a lot of these reasons listed also apply to other fans and you should just listen to why people enjoy it.

That's cool, bro. You gave it a shot, you just don't quite care for it. That's more than a lot of people who don't like the show can say. You've got my respect.

>>24513350
This is true for me as well. It's cute ponies doing cute things. Nothing wrong with that.

Actually, all the K-ON spam in this thread got me thinking about why I love MLP but hate moe, since so many have compared them.

I think it boils down to this: moe tries too hard to pander. It either sexualizes its characters to the point that they're fetish objects, or makes them dull-as-dishwater flat characters with no flaws (or one token "cute" flaw like being tsundere) so viewers can project on them. It all comes off as very manipulative, and fake.

MLP, meanwhile, is made by a veteran animator who used to collect the toys as a kid. It doesn't try to be cool, or trendy, or fashionable; it just tries to be entertaining. The characters are very well developed, have strong flaws, and are all funny in different ways.

And there are no fucking swimsuit episodes.

Can anyone help me? Anything is appreciated

>>24513456
I really hope this doesn't turn into a moe vs. ponies discussion, but:

What I dislike about moe isn't the sexiness or the cuteness, it's that most of the characters are complete idiots. K-ON is a great example: the main girl is practically a retard. It's not just obnoxious, it's disturbing: as a girl, I have to wonder if this is what Japanese guys honestly want women to be.

>>24513442

Again, this is /co/, retard. You don't like threads about games on /tg/, go be a bitch on /tg/.

I don't go to /tg/ to complain about all you unloved virgins with hygeine problems.

Thats for the education anon

>>24513525

I don't know what moe and K-On is (I don't really want to), but that sounds like a perfectly legitimate reason not to like that shit.

The reason MLP stands out is because the female characters are treated like real people instead of retards.

>>24513456
You hate "moe" because you're a nerd who doesn't know SHIT about anime.

Moe isn't a genre you n00bs.

I do love cute ponies doing cute things though, you got good taste bro. It's all good.

>>24513586
Isn't the term for those kinds of animes "slice-of-life" and "moe" is "adorable"? From my view, they're hand in hand nowadays, most slice-of-life animes are very "moe" right now, correct or no?

I've never been a big anime fan, especially not very recent stuff, I'm just going off what I've interpreted.

>>24513586

I love you, don't be mad <3

>>24513616

Why would we go to /tg/ to troll? For starters, you unloved virgins are so autistic it takes all the fun out of it. Second, why troll with an on topic discussion?

just started a new fort in Dwarf Fortress and named it Ingtakkebul Famthut Famthut (Twilightsparkle the Horse of Horses)

>>24513649
Moe just means adorable. A feeling that you want to hug them. Rainbow Dash is moe. I want to give her a big hug. The show K-On! is not moe, or a "moe show". You don't want to hug the anime K-On! that doesn't make any sense.

>>24513616
>mfw you think anyone give's a mule's ass about /tg/

>>24513752 Rainbow Dash is moe

You're confusing "moe" with "gar."

Moe = a character that appears cute in a vulnerable, submissive way. Inspires feelings of protection in the viewer.

Gar = a character who doesn't need protection because she is too busy kicking everyone's ass.

The only pony who could reasonably be considered moe is Fluttershy. Except Stare Master proved she is actually a secret badass.

>>24513686
Fuck you. And you are, ponyfucker.

>>24513766
well, she's getting pissed on so the joke's on her

>>24513712

Your idiot friends are, and I think you deserve some shit back for your general "contribution". Ponyfucker.

>>24513752
I meant it more in a way that the characters of K-On! are overly "moe" and that's why people call it a moe anime. I understand though, what would K-On! be described as then, a slice-of-life anime like I said or is there another way to say it?

>>24513525
I don't really care about moe either way (I stopped following anime a long time ago, aside from One Piece) but does anyone else love the fact that there's no idiot in the mane cast?

Almost every cartoon has a stupid character among the main group, because it's easy to write plots around the token idiot. But this also gets really old and repetitive.

At first a lot of people thought Pinkie was the token idiot in MLP, but we soon found out that she's wise in her own way, and not dumb, just hyper.

Instead, every mane pony has her own episode where she does something stupid and causes a mess that needs fixing. They are not written as being stupid, but as capable of doing stupid things. It's much more true to real life: EVERYONE can be an idiot sometimes.

It's funny how these ponies are better written than most ensamble casts on television. Not sure if that's a point for MLP or a point against TV in general.

okay explain why k-on and lucky star isn't moe shit?

So...
Aren't we supposed to know pretty soon what is renewed or not on the hub?
Will we know if ponies get a second seasons?

>>24513961

Oh, wow. And the K-On guys think there's something wrong with US.

>>24514081
This'll do

>>24514059
> Bloo is not dumb
Were... we watching the same show? Bloo started out pretty not dumb, but as the series went on he lost quite a number of IQ points.

>>24514071

That too.

>>24514057

I see what you did there.

What I've noticed lately is a lot of cartoons that start off with a stupid cast member, but develop them past that (and are the better for it.)

On Avatar, Sokka started out as the team idiot, but by midway through season one he had evolved into a clever planner who just complains a lot.

On Venture Bros, both Hank and Dean started out as idiots. Then it was just Hank, but eventually it evolved into the two of them not being stupid, just the incredibly naive products of a very weird upbringing.

MLP arguably did the same thing with Pinkie. Griffon the Brush-Off was when she broke out of that.

That's alot of plot.

Wow.
This took A LOT longer to do in this style.
I guess I can blame a lot of that on my using a mouse a GIMP.
Still, I dunno, I think it looks better than my usual colour jobs.

>>24514155

And oh, look. He just happens to be here to respond.

That sure was fast. What a coincidence.

>>24514036
That's the reason I don't even bother with any recently made anime, when I decide to watch any at all.

>>24514100
It's usually other /co/mrades that compare MLP to K-On! or such, not K-On and Lucky Star fans complaining about MLP.

Have some more plot, this is the one I couldn't find originally and settled with the first one I posted.

>>24514167
I think the shading looks off with that background sky

May I ask, what's "this style"?

Posting cute Derpy 'cause I like ponies

>>24514167
That background looks flat.

>>24514181
uh...

I feel this thread has taken an incredibly shitty turn. Even worse than the furry arguments, if thats possible.

In any case, what do you hope from the next episode

>>24514229
Drawn shadows as opposed to fade jobs like:
>>24511921

>>24514167
Now that's awesome!
Was this one ever colored? It could apply to some posters around here...

>>24514242
Big mac doing a little more then just 'eeyup'

>>24513996
that thing japanese people do with the glow sticks at concerts is really weird and gay imho

>>24514190
I am in love with MLP and also like Lucky Star..
not a fan of K-On but whatever

I'm not choosing between my shows because other bronies or non-/co/ scrubs think they can't coexist

let's just embrace frienship
