The Marathon Update 2


Sovereign Leader Rarity

604 views

To all of the 10 or so people who actually took a look at my last blog entry where I reviewed MLP:FIM Season 1, I wanted to take the time to thank you so much for your support. It means so much to me that I can express my opinion on a large social interface and for people to see it and maybe even get something out of it. There were some grammatical errors ( It was like, 7AM in the morning and I'd stayed up all night attempting to complete it, so I'm not going to apologise, although I will be returning to said blog entry and giving the grammar a significant overhaul in the upcoming week ) but, I feel like it went rather smoothly. However, as the people who observed my latest endeavour may be aware of, I was unfortunately late to upload it. I'm sorry, I really am. But, do you know the reason why? It was so much more work than I had anticipated, it took for ages to complete and, frankly, I just didn't enjoy it very much. I'm a naturally vey lazy person and it seemed like an awful amount of work for not much of a pay off. But, your support made me think otherwise and forced me to re-evaluate my previous opinion and as for the writing part itself, I actually thoroughly enjoyed the process of expressing a specific opinion of a specific episode while simultaneously injecting my own personal style and brand of humour into the whole thing. I received a piece of mail to my ...mail...icon...thingy, from a user who, although I didn't know at all, made me aware that he/she enjoyed the entry, and that comment alone made me want to continue. And, you know, it hasn't gotten any easier. The process of giving 26 episodes a semi-thorough review in a space of time short enough to keep the interests of the people who wanted it is difficult, it's a big commitment. With school getting more and more challenging, the hustle and bustle of every-day life, on top of my ongoing personal struggles and turmoil, there were times when I just wanted to say "screw it" and leave. But, despite all of that, I recently found that I was starting to enjoy the process of formulating the reviews themselves far more enjoyable ( maybe Season 2 is just way better than Season 1, I don't know ). I found that despite taking a lot longer than I had initially hoped for, I wanted it to get completed regardless, and that is always a good sign. To have a project that starts off as merely a passing promise gain something resembling mild popularity to the point where you want to see that project to succeed and evolve, it makes you stop answering questions and to appreciate what you have created to a much greater degree. I'm still not 100 percent positive on when exactly the next entry will be uploaded, but I can say with near certainty that it will be sometime in the upcoming week. To all of you who have waited for this, firstly, I apologise that it has taken so long and, secondly, I want to sincerely thank you for your ever-present patience. Although I am the being who has created this project, you, the viewers, are the ones who have sustained it, the metaphorical blood of the metaphorical creature that is this blog. Remember, this is your product as much as it is mine.

 

 

  Thank you, for everything - The most trusted underling of the queen of the television screen, Rarity The Supreme.
