Oneshot. There's really no need for him to do much else in Ponyville. He's a traveling salestaur, after all.

He's an antagonist... barely, but I wouldn't evil call him a jerk.

Oh man, Angel was such a cock at the start of the episode. She should have booted him and made him find his own food for a day or something.

[up]He's definitely supposed to be a jerk, although I don't think he realizes the extent of his jerkiness. I mean, his advice boils down to "yell and threaten until people back off". But I do think he thinks he's being legitimately helpful, so he's not all bad.

I like Merriwether's bold style. She doesn't dance around the subject of the episode.

[up][up][up]At worst, slightly obnoxious. But not a jerk.

@ JT no she did raise the price, but this is a barter based economy, now a days you can't really do that because everything is owned by corporations and set a price the actual sellers can't deviate from.

The produce fair was more like a flea market, yes she set her price at 2 but Pinkie was trying to talk her down, perfectly reasonable thing at that type of stall.

@JT: You have to agree that Fluttershy willing to use the Stare again is more than enough.

@kegi: Oh man, I would pay good money to see Fluttershy confront her shadow. Or any of the ponies really.

So am I the only one who likes Fluttershy regardless of whether she's a doormat or not?

I wouldn't even say he was an antagonist. He was providing a service, was absent most of the episode and when Fluttershy didn't want to pay, he just left. The antagonist was Fluttershy taking his lessons out of proportion.

They almost said "flying fuck?" When did that happen?

@Nomoru: Definitely.

The thing with Iron Will is that we don't really see enough of him interacting with other characters to gauge whether he's like that all the time. I mean, I can't imagine him going off on ponies that often because very few of them would give him any trouble.

I'm voting that Iron Will is a one-shot character rather than antagonist. Fluttershy is the one who took his teachings to extremes.

@Chariot

I can like Fluttershy, but I don't have to like her passive persona.

I can relate to Fluttershy, the character. But I favor Applejack.

Wait Iron Will as an antagonist? Does the word "antagonist" mean anything anymore?

New Fluttershy was ranting and use the phrase "give a flying feather"

[up][up]Agreed. The problem wasn't him, but Fluttershy going overboard with the lessons. The only antagonistic he did was demand payment, which really isn't a bad thing. Fluttershy did attend his seminar after all, and he willingly left without really doing anything horrible.

I wouldn't say Iron Will is a jerk.

He's just... bull-headed.

I don't mind her passiveness. Then again she's one of my favorites because of her passiveness.
