Hopefully people will upload JPN dubs online.

Heya Apple, Kyler thinks our Character Trope pages are getting too numerous and need some cleanup.
Not just me, there's been grumbling about it in Troper Updates. That's what prompted my post in the first place, actually.

It's not the number of tropes so much as possible trope misuse, really. And I figure people that actually follow the show have a better idea of whether particular examples actually apply or not.

See which tropes are being shoehorned.

I guess if you have time, just go over the character pages and do some cleanup. Remove tropes that don't apply, add context for unclear examples, etc.

Clean up is my specialty. I will see to it if I have time.

She cranks the bass up to eleven, it cleans off the floors on a microscopic level. And also smashes all the windows.

I figure someone did a corrected speed calculation of Dashie's Sonic Rainboom using the pony sizes as calculated from the 8-foot candy cane in Hearth Warming? How fast was this new figure?

Calculation using the angle of the mach cone Dashie created

@edveed: Actually most of the defense I see for MMDW comes from people saying that Dash totally had it coming and others didn't like it because they were Dash fanboys. . .yeah.

Which I agree with.

... how can you not like Sisterhooves?

Because it makes me feel depressed when I realise that my family is way more dysfunctional.

Well grimdark is boring, moreso if it's the cookie-cutter grimderp.

Unless it’s like “The Heart Thief”. Then it’s amazing and beautiful.

Anyway, my top Five fvourite episodes are:

5. It's About Time

4. The Return of Harmony

3. Lesson Zero

2. Hurricane Fluttershy

1. A Canterlot Wedding

My least favourite episode is: Over a Barrel

Followed by, in order:

2. Griffon the Brush Off

3. Fall Weather Friends

4. Ticket Master

5. Applebuck Season

6. Look Before You Sleep

7. Owl's Well That Ends Well

8. Call of the Cutie

9. Show Stoppers

10. Feeling Pinkie Keen

My least favourite season 2 episode is Dragon Quest.

My least fvourite season 3 episode is Too Many Pinkie Pies

Also, I'm one of those people who's opinion of Pinkie was improved by A Friend in Deed. I used to have an incredibly low opinion of her.

Also Dashie can withstand ridiculous G-forces with her racial magic

@Death Cloud - I did a Spit Take when I read the description. That came out of nowhere.

@Ace - Or cartoon physics.

Post of the Day #330

Oh, yeah, that reminds me. I'm still working on porting Pickory, Story. It's proving to be more challenging that I thought, if only for compiler and namespace issues making for tedious work to sort out. At least SDL should be easy enough to work with once that's out of the way.
Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

The moment Rainbow did Rainboom was the moment I realized that the writers don't give a ship about physics.

RD totally had it coming to her, the other Mane 5 did nothing wrong and a lot of the hate towards the episodes is due to Dash fanboys being upset that worshipping the ground that RD flies over is treated as being wrong.

@ d Roy: nah, clearly she can tap her racial magic the same way Sonic naturally harnesses the power of Chaos to outrun the wind itself.

Another physics discussion, also Sonic is definitely much faster when he actually tries

[up][up]You know, Dash was one of my least favorite characters at the time, and even I didn't like the episode. I really don't see how people can think that it's just Dash fans who hate the episode.

I also don't agree with how the others decided to deal with the situation, but that's just my opinion.

It wasn't just the Mane 6 treating Dash that way. It was also just how exaggeratedly OOC Dash was, and more to a point, how the entire setting felt OOC. Nothing about the episode felt at all like the rest of the series.

@Ace - Well, if you want to eat up that kind of nonsensical explanation, I can't say anything more.

Not that discussion on the science behind the sonic Rainboom again. It's all cartoon physics! You can't apply real life to it!

I know I often ask what ponies are capable of, but that's only within the realms of the show. I don't need the science behind it.

Tealove is best pony. Ask The Mane Six
