I love Friendship is Magic sooo much! Watched two episodes to relax a bit and I can't help it to always smile, laugh, giggle or to feel with all the characters. I watch it for the seventh time since January and it still feels like the very first time.
It's hard to explain. My emotions explode in all directions every time! Just like the way Pinkie feels most of the time, it's exactly the same. The emotions are real.
I just need to turn on an episode and it usually begins with a nice, peaceful soundtrack and this makes me so happy already. And all the episodes, save for a very few, have happy endings. It's a feel-good show throughout. FiM really is pure love.
