I'm Twilight. Yup.

A) You have your generic studious-best-friend-who-always-rushes-off-to-deal-with-books set up in the first five minutes of the series. Which has been done almost to death. And there's always comments along the lines of 'She must care more about the books than her friends'.

B) The aforementioned stairs. Beyond the fact that horses would find it difficult to bend their legs correctly to get up the stairs, ponies have hooves, which should have resulted into radically different stair shapes. But noooo, we need to make it as humanlike as possible. Because that totally makes sense with ponies.

C) The generic 'Sister tries to take over the world so other sister regretfully stops her with the magic of PEACE AND BEAUTY AND HARMONY'. Not to mention that dude, the ponies fricking ignored her work every night for YEARS. Jesus Christ, would it have killed them to stay up oe night to appreciate her work?

D) Pony Magic. That was the second I left in disgust. Could you not have just named it 'Magic'? I there really any need to give it a Narmful title like that? We already know you're ponies, we don't need that reinforced ಠ_ಠ

So, all I really know about this show is that /co/ is completely tsundere for it.

Should I be secure in my masculinity and try it out?

As I said, who cares about being a man?

Actually they say "Magic" a lot in the series.

It's great.

Do it Malkavian! Real men watch shows about ponies!

I guess we should really just agree to disagree on that, then.

By the way, why is this in Yack Fest and not in the Media subforum?

I told you bro.

I told you about how cliched the first few episodes were.

I've never gotten the whole "Horses=Girly" thing. I mean, cowboys have horses and so do knights.

(sets off to look for torrents while no one is looking)

Because it was made as a Just For Fun Pony Goodness discussion and now it's this. And everyone is fine with it.

^There's only one torrent. First 10 episodes, great quality. Put it straight to my Xbox.

It's in Yack Fest because nobody posts in Western Animation.

This current generation is too mainstream.

I'll go back to G1.

ILLEGAL.

Every MLP thing before this sucks.

They had the first episode free on iTunes in HD so I downloaded it in an instant...too bad my iPod can't play HD :c

(glances to the left)

No one.

(glances to the right)

No one.

(clicks download)

This shall be our secret, TV Tropes.

Okay. Is anyone here willing to swear on any respect I have for them that this show gets less painful to watch later?

I don't think you're allowed to link to torrent sites on here.

Yeah. You aren't. Terminate that link man.

Then the anime sub-forum has been breaking that rule a bajillion times.

Exactly...

Fine. Edited. But you all know it exists now, so yeah. And the torrents in great quality.

It does get less painful to watch, but it doesn't stop being embarrassing until you get used to it.

The first two are more or less painful to watch most of the way through, but there are some high points.

You sure?

Yeah, Cygan, I don't think any of us really care about your respect. We do, however, care about ponies.

I was never really embarrassed about watching it for some reason. And I actually really enjoyed the first episode, though the second one was a little cheesy. I still loved it though, because I like cheesy.
