For one thing, MLP is not comparable to DBZ, because the latter is for men while the former is for girls. If anything, DBZ could've just as easily been compared to some other Hasbro franchise, one meant for boys, like Transformers, which also originally hailed from Japan like DBZ. MLP, on the other hand, is more comparable with Sailor Moon, because it's a girls' series like Sailor Moon, one that revolves around love and friendship between multiple females instead of just absurd power-levels (exc
Here's a review of Dragon Ball Z that sums up my feelings of this bullcrap: http://www.themanime.org/viewreview.php?id=245
All everyone ever cares about is this stupid Twilight/Tirek fight scene, which rendered Twilight's friends just as obsolete as Goku's non-saiyan friends. And, that fight scene could've been even worse if it dragged on for five episodes, or worse, an entire season!!!
Which is why I'm thankful for the Rainbow Power scene, which redeemed Twilight's friends for being us
The reason is because it reminded me of one of the most broken, pathetic, overhyped anime to have ever crapped out of Funimation and Saban: Dragon Ball Z, which was part of a long line of inferior sequels. Dragon Ball Z's fights dragged on for too long, Goku is overpowered, and his entire non-saiyan ensemble cast gets disposed of and reduced to extras.
And, the fight scene had one of those problems. It reduced Twilight's friends to disposable extras who could just die instantly and not mak
The fact that Littlest Pet Shop Season Three will be released on May 31st, which is one month after the Season Two finale premiered! Littlest Pet Shop doesn't even have the same kind of fandom that MLP had, and yet S3 is being released several times earlier than MLP S5.
But then again, I'm becoming too obsessed with My Little Pony, and I might need something to tide me over until the fifth season comes out. And so far, the best I have is Littlest Pet Shop, as well probably the fifth season
You know, like Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, and Bleach, where only one or two characters are the ones growing in power, while everyone else is reduced to disposable extras?
Yeah, that kind of thing: http://www.equestriadaily.com/2014/05/new-clip-on-mlp-facebook-page.html#idc-cover
In that clip, Celestia, Luna, and Cadence outright state to Twilight that she can't tell her friends about their magic being transferred into her, because it could "endanger" them. In other words, the writers have b
So I saw the new main-villain, who not only revealed his power to absorb other ponies' life-force and even cutie-marks, but also his name. And, that name belongs to a familiar Generation One villain from the movie, Rescue From Midnight Castle: Tirek. Sure, he doesn't look like the old Tirek, and he's not voiced by Victor Caroli, Tirek's original voice-actor, who was ironically used to do the voice for the paralyzed horse from Bravest Warriors. But, based on what I saw so far, the new Tirek wi
Remember how I thought Princess Twilight Sparkle, and Twilight entering the human world without her friends, both devalued her friends and reduced them to disposable extras, a la any supporting character who wasn't Goku, Vegeta, Naruto, Sasuke, Ichigo, and the Gotei 13?
Well, when I read the summary to the upcoming S4 finale, I thought it would also devalue Twilight's friends again. This time, it's because Celestia, Luna, and Cadence transfer all their magic into Twilight, which would've mad

Do you think it did tease a possible Rarity/Spike episode in Season Four? Post about it in the comments below to discuss more.
Here's my theory about next Saturday's episode of the MLP show. Technically, "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils" will focus on dealing with difficult people. Sweetie Belle will eventually learn from Luna, in her dreams, about dealing with difficult ponies, especially her sister Rarity, but in the right way. At the end, Sweetie would have to confess her feelings to Rarity about the latter being somewhat of a jerk to the former, so that Rarity herself could learn a valuable lesson as well.
But,
The reason is most likely because Rarity will only receive two of her own episodes this season. And, "For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils" will mostly be a Sweetie Belle episode, despite her dealing with her sister, Rarity.
With the exception of Season One, Rarity kept receiving the least amount of love amongst her friends. In "Luna Eclipsed," for example, there was a scene where Rarity gave Princess Luna a variety of costumes to wear, but that was cut out due to time constraints. Then, in Seas
Before I talk about this, I'd like to let the moderators here know that I'm not complaining about Equestria Girls like I always do. Rather, I'm trying to be rational and explain why Twilight's friends could not accompany her into the mirror, and the way one of the reasons is not that they've degenerated into dead weight, a la the entire non-saiyan cast of Dragon Ball Z. So, if it appears like I'm complaining about Equestria Girls as usual, please don't ban me, because I'm now being rational and
Just so you know, I've been banned from the Alicorn Twilight and Equestria Girls forums, so I'm trying to find alternatives to let out all that steam. I know I've beaten this dead horse (so to speak) many times over, but what else can I do?
And besides, Twilight entering the mirror alone, without her friends helping her? Why would MLP be about friendship when Twilight wasn't allowed to bring her friends with her to the human world? And those five humans are definitely NOT her friends, despit
