What was that one moment that soiled your favorite character?
>>29654616

They have no power over it. What's good is good is good is good.

this desu, my love for the show and characters is from a nearly unassailable position. They'd have to turn all the characters into protoplasmic amoeba and change the setting to Delhi for me to start having doubts
>>29654616
I love my favorite character more than I respect the idiots who write for the show but give zero fucks about it. Bad episodes piss me off, but they can't take my favorite character away from me, nor make me love her a tiny bit less.
>>29654616
Working on the farm gets AJ pretty soiled but she gets cleaned right after she's done.:^)
>>29654616
There is one episode that isn't canon, and that is "Feeling Pinkie Keen."
Twilight is not an anti-scientific moron. If that episode were canon, it would soil her.
>>29654641
That's not what they meant. Stop sucking so my executive cock.
>>29654653
I remember when that episode made atheists reeeee way back in 2011-12
>>29654653
I liked that scene in "What About Discord?"
Those butthurt tears, her attempt to be haughty and unfazed by all the exclusion but it was painfully transparent. Delish.

It's a shame because most of her episodes are god-tier.

What are you talking about?
OP asked for what moment ruined one's favorite character.
>>29654641 said that it would be essentially impossible for any moment to. That's a direct and relevant response to what OP meant and said.
I see the problem here: You don't read what people actually say. Instead, you read your para-quoting.
>>29654627
Yep, that's the one.
>>29654740
I'll speak for whoever I want. That first comment is saying the exact opposite of what the reply took it to mean.
>>29654748
What are YOU talking about? Did you even read the chain? The "I love everything, I will pay Hasbro to shit in my mouth" post was not a reply to the OP.
>>29654762
It is agreeing with someone else who replied to OP saying that nothing could ruin their favorite character.
Guys, I'm pretty sure this guy is a troll. No-one is this retarded, right?
>>29654627
>lost most of her defining character traits

>>29654779
Dude, you're a fucking idiot. You don't even understand what the conversation was about. Shut the fuck up until you start being able to comprehend what people are saying.
>>29654797
If you actually made the first post you have no idea how to express yourself.
Also, you have to get even madder if you want me to take your suggestions seriously. I expect caps lock and typos, at least.

Eh, whatever. Have Starlight Glimmer (TM) so you could try reviving what made the show unique and whatever, we are being paid anyway.
>>29654679
You are clearly someone who conflates not hating the show due to the mistakes of previous seasons with "sucking executive cock" because you are at a lower high-school argumentative level. I am someone who DOES still like the show and doesn't sweat the smaller failings. Therefore, for me to say
>stop liking what I don't like
to illustrate your way of thinking is perfectly valid. Because you clearly don't like the show or you would've never made that comparison. And I do. So it does work, you moron.
>>29654883
>if you don't want to see the characters turned into (I quote) protoplasmic amoeba in Delhi, "you clearly don't like the show"

EQG. Yeah, not canon, etc. But I can't actually think of any Rarity moments I cant stand on the show. Meanwhile, in EQG, I cannot stand the Analog to my pony waifu at all.
>>29654952
Yeah I know.
I tried that problem and it took me about 2 days and she did get it all right except the very last step.
Rainbow Dash in this scene in A Canterlot Wedding Part 1 and more general in the whole two-parter
Abandoning your best friend for some random princess you've know for a day doesn't really scream loyalty
>>29655012
She's also loyal to honesty with her friends. If she thinks one of her best friends is crazy or overreacting, it's not abandonment.
>>29655031
It is. What they did was the definition of abandonment.
When you think one of your friends is overreacting, you don't spite them, turn your backs to them, and walking away. That's not what friends do. That's not being honest, that's just being a dick.
>>29655043
More confusingly with Lesson Zero they had an episode already addressing this problem
>>29655012
The fact that the entire group didnt give even the slightest doubt or show of concern to Twilight's meltdown made me fucking livid.
Its like they forgot that Lesson Zero happened in the same season and that they promised to not think so little of her plights anymore.Then again, the entire 2 parter was fanfic tier anyway.
>>29654958

Everyone says Twilicorn was the downfall of MLP, but its true herald was this OC gradient-wing-hue alicorn out of nowhere.
>>29654685
Wrong, they were mostly 'love me for who i am, a party gal' episodes
Lesson Zero ruined Twilight (and the show) forever.
I still liked the rest of the season, but that episode will forever leave a sour taste in my mouth. It was an omen of worse things to come (twilicorn)
>>29654616
still hasn't happened for me
>>29655211
Truth.
>>29655172
I agree.
Both her and Shining were rushed in as fuck. If they at least introduced the latter like they did with Maud (a relative, but not all too important, and with plenty of time to see his character and quirk(s) at play), he could have been pretty likeable.
By making Cadence an alicorn and with explanationdamage controllocked into a book, she was just a mess that shouldn't have been allowed to be.
And she still has barebones level of character on top of it all.
>>29654616
To me, rainbow was a bit of a cunt, but she meant well. That is until I watched the cheese sandwich episode. Then she became a complete egotistical cunt with no way of redemption.
>>29654616
She's not in the show often enough for that to happen, but they did it just the same
>>29655245
Not to mention it ruined the original vision of a two-alicorn celestial diarchy. It was what trivialized alicorns, planting the cuckoo egg for Twilight's ascension.
>>29655245
And the plot! Celestia the ancient alicorn who once single-handedly weilded all six elements of harmony, the guru of friendship in a world where Friendship Is Magic, was defeated by the power of love. Suddenly love was the most powerful magic.
Damn do I hate that episode.
>>29654616
People say DPDoMS ruined Luna, but I thought the episode was fine. So she's not "soiled" for me.
>>29655330
Pretty sure love has stronger bonds than friendship.
>>29655355
I liked that episode. It gave me major nostalgia for DDO's Dreaming Dark
when she soiled herself
>>29655245
At least they're shoved off to the crystal empire land of misfit characters so they only have an impact occasionally.
>>29655355
Do peiple really say that? I've only heard praise from many Luna fans for that episode, yeah there was lots of CRAWLING IN MY SKIIIN edge jokes but I didn't think it was genuine
>>29655280
We're gonna get monkeypawed hard if she gets an episode in season 7.
>>29655413
If it doesn't involve an all-out deathmatch between Shimmy and Trash, I'm quitting this shit

>>29654616
Pinkie has been on a decline for a long time now, devolving from "quirky party pony who breaks into song and dance" to "must scream and break the fourth wall every time she speaks", but I felt like the worst moment of being written OOC was during Newbie Dash. Pinkie Pie has always been crazy about Dash, she's arguably her best friend. The fact that she would miss Dash's first performance as a Wonderbolt because she wanted to stand in line for food was jarring, and reminded me just how little the current crop of writers give a shit.
>>29655388
Yeah, I've actually heard some say it genuinely.

>People unironically believe this guy
>>29654616
The moment I saw alternate timeline Dash, I realized how shit regular Dash is
>>29655356
So does slavery. That's not what the show is about. The name of the show is Friendship Is Magic.
>>29655510
Yeah I mean I get where he's coming from but I just don't agree, he is a good content creator though at least

>>29654616
I mean every character had their ups and downs, but Cart before the Pony was quite disappointing. I'd expect that shit from RD, but Rarity caring so much aboyt a cart was weird and AJ walking all over her sister was sad.
Ordinarially I don't like the CMCs too much but seeing them break outside their usual zone was nice.I think the episode would have been better if instead of the CMCs being walked on by their sisters, they had to deal with everyone, including their sisters, classmates, cheerilee, assuming they were gonna try and win the expected prizes.
>>29655802
And most importantly, I bet she doesn't have regular Dash's obnoxious personality
>>29655481
Hey Anon, if you like Ponk don't let an idiot writer ruin her for you.
>>29655481
They hang out and pull pranks together sometimes. Best friends they ain't. When first shown Dash goes to immense lengths to get the hell away from her. Fluttershy is her oldest friend in Ponyville and Dash gets along with AJ better than any of the rest of the M6. If she had a best friend in Ponyville it'd either be Butterhorse or Appul.
>>29655481

>>29654748
Fuck off, Lector. You autist.
You just posted the moment that soiled my favorite character *and* her fandom. Which was triply annoying because I had the *exact same thing* happen with Shimmer.
God, Shimmer was hot.
Even more obvious choice.
>>29654627
Nah, I think her lack of relevance aside from plot episodes ruined her more than this. I still love her.
>>29657649
the old writers didn't know what to do with her after S3, the new ones are completely fucking clueless about every single M6. their only certainty is that they have to give poochie a lot of fucking spotlight
Pretty much all of Fluttershy after season 1. Season 1 Fluttershy actually had her actually feeling like a well rounded character.
Fluttershy became an unlikable bipolar mess. Losing her femininity and just the lack of cuteness in her depictions was definitely what really killed her for me. She went from my favorite character to least favorite by season 4.
Even in the best night ever when she was going crazy she still managed to be cute.
After season 1 the writers completely forgot to make her cute and feminine and she always seemed to make me cringe with how she was written in the later seasons.
Putting Your Hoof Down: I could deal with this since it was really the first time we got something like this for Fluttershy.
Hurricane Fluttershy: Not a big offender by any means but I didn't care for how the training montage depicted her.
Magic Duel: I hated how she threatens Twilight to not hurt her animals. It felt so cringy and forced.
Keep Calm and Flutter On: Now she's a victim of pandering and unnecessary plots. Waste of her episode.
Power Ponies: Saddle Rager is more generic subversion for no reason.
Bats!: Once again more subversion of her character. At this point the joke is so overused that her default character isn't present enough in the show to make the joke work.
Filli Vanilli: More subverting shyness + bonus unnecessary callback.
Breezies: Shy people feel comfortable around animals because they don't talk back! (Yes I know Spike in season 1, doesn't excuse it)
Cutie Map: The only freaking time I actually liked Fluttershy in years.
MNFBKD: Writers decided that now Fluttershy has continuity towards her not being shy anymore.
Scare Master: Some weird fucking episode where the writers believe Fluttershy is still shy and completely miss the point of a halloween episode.
Overall Fluttershy is marred by changing so much, writers ignoring the original appeal of her character, and by sheer bad luck gets otherwise terrible episodes.
>>29657832
>Fluttershy stopped being onedimensional moe fuckbait, and now I don't like her anymore.
>>29657510
You might even say continuity is a rarity.
>>29657786
Twilight still has her old habits and character, but it doesn't get spotlight or is completely irrelevant. And there is still some progress for her, it just doesn't get spotlight or is handled poorly. What About Discord for example, would've been really good for her, with her regretting she missed a great moment because she went with her own secluded activity like always but now she actually regrets it. But no, it's actually about being The Princess Of Friendship, not just a good friend, and on top of that her friends act autistic and oblivious for plot reasons, to hammer in that she fucked up, also allowing Discord to basically bully her freely. Was there really no other way for them to handle Twilight's lesson about bonding and special moments between friends?
Glimmer didn't really work out for them though. And now we're stuck with barely used Twilight AND Starlight that doesn't quite fit as well.
>>29654653
but that episode is canon
>>29657832
Really? I think fluts is the best example of character development the show has to offer.
She's come into her own from crippling social anxiety. I don't see how that makes her less feminine or cute.You just want a waifu without the stones to tell you no, anon. :^)
>>29657510>unless your favorite character is (was) twilight spergle, then you're just fucked.It still hurts
>>29657887
Yep!! and that doesn't make me change my love for her!!
>>29655330
During the first season I always thought Celestia got together her own main six to defeat Nightmare Moon. Afterall, she wore a getup very similar to Rarity's element of generosity.
>>29655172
Fucking hell, this, she was the original mary sue.
>suddely introduced
>marrying a suddenly introduced relative of the main character
>related to celestia
>also a princess, despite never mentioned
>unique design(even though its shit)
>entire season ending twoparter revolves around her
>gets her own magical kingdom right away
Absolutely fucking retarded on so many level. Fucking up the general iconography and theme of the day/night princesses. Atleast they could have named her Blooming Dawn or something like that so we'd have a day/night/Twilight/Dawn theme going on but no, maintaining something like that takes effort.
>>29658449
It was a thousand years ago. Celestia wielded all six elements of harmony to defeat Nightmare Moon, as Twilight saw in the flashback.
>>29658525
Yes thank you captain obvious, I' watch the show too.
>>29656957
>Best friends they ain't
The whole point of the show is that they're best friends!
>>29654681
Or Trixie reformed thanks to Sethisto kissing too many asses.
>>29654681
Or when they just decided to keep pulling back obviously oneshot characters like Trixie and Gilda because the fans latched on them

My favorite character is Chrysalis. Her as a character alone has only improved. Of course the hamfisted way she was defeated last time leaves much to be desired.
Not really soiled but it was weird.
This scene. Scoots says she would do anything for Dash. Dash is like
>Oh yeah pipsqueak? How about taking out the trash! (throws bitten apple on the ground)
Am I crazy or was this horrible?
