Every show will end at some point. FiM has with nine seasons already a very very long running time. Other successful cartoons don't get that many. Star vs Forces of Evil, Gravity Falls etc have less than nine seasons. That the number of seasons and episodes are limited is just part of my argument I made. ]\ The world building is highly appreciate from my end and there should have been more. Actually, with the ending of season nine I think this is also needed. I didn't say that I they should I haven shown only the Main Six stories. You need to keep in mind that the student six are special characters. They need a lot of screen time to be really well established. While there have been already seven seasons for the main six, the Student didn't have that. You also cannot drop the Main Six completely out of the picture and even more important you need to show their interactions, how they are different, have different character progressions and so on. There are so many background characters which needed already more time to be shown that introducing new character which needs to be establish is very challenging. There are many examples, but let's take just one: The pillars. They have been introduced in season seven. We see them once more in "A Rockhoof and a Hard Place" and "Friendship University" and beginning and ending of season nine. To say that they have been underused is an understatement. Even more important they share with the Main Six and Student Six they same role. I'm unsure how to put it down, let's say that the "Friendship is strong with them". Here much time would have been needed to establish and to develop these characters. Considering the ending of season nine it would also have been also very very good to show more about heir homelands. And this is just one example, there are many more characters which needed more time: Spike, Starlight or the CMC. I'm still very sad that the CMC never get a bigger role with growing age. This is one the one hand understandable because lack of time. On the other hand: if you remember that hey became tutors in season eight then this would have been a good opportunity for the show to develop and connect them more. I'm not saying I want only main six. I'm saying that this feels like a spinoff chance for a new show or movies and it would also have been justified from my point of view.

that she does. Playing lovely Toto's Africa song

Far too many for me to list .. I've never seen her as a weak character and I like particular those moment when the show emphasizes this

Her honesty - I think this is not enough She's grounded to the earth, keep a cool head in tough situations (most of the time). I also like her family spirit - even if it gets too much at times.

I don't hate season 8. However, I think that it is the weakest of all the FiM seasons. I like the idea of the School of Friendship and newly added characters. However, I think the writing never found a good way to integrate it into show. There are more than one episodes which tries to establish the newly added characters by diminishing the main six or at least push them far away and their development like Non Complete Clause. It is really sad because the idea and premise of this very interesting (not just for selling merchandise). But admitely it is not easy to integrate this in a show which has already so many good characters and items to handle like the Map of Friendship - which is an amazing plot device. Like others also said before the show didn't really make good use of the new possibilities, good and important possibilities had not enough time to grow. In my personally opinion the School of Friendship should have been a spin off of the show or even it's entire movie series ( I think it would have been much more potential than EqG) But to repeat myself: I don't hate season 8. It brings a lot of good thinsg to the table. There just barely room for it in this overcrowded series to integrate and develop it further.

all of them ♥ If I have to decide: https://derpibooru.org/images/2656892

I think this really depends on the character of the person who would live with them. In general Flutters is the kindest of them all and seems to be the one who speaks up the least when something disturbs her. However, this doesn't mean it would be the easiest to live with in general. If you take the wrong character there would tension even with Fluttershy. So ... I will answer this question in regards to my own character. For me it would be indeed Fluttershy on spot #1, since we share a lot of common. On second spot there could be Twilight and on the third spot Pinkie Pie. RD an AJ are difficult to judge here. I feel more attached to RD and cannot stand the stubbornness of AJ. I think both would be very hard for me to live with. Rarity and me are very different characters. I think we would not go along at any sort.

far too many to list them all but here are some which have not been listed before

I love all the mane 6 , but some are more closer to me than others Fluttershy Twilight Sparkle Pinkie Pie Rainbow Dash Applejack Rarity

"Friendship is musical" is what brought me into FiM, the fandom and this forums. I'm pretty sure I have seen some MLP toys when I was elementary school, or have seen some merchandise, or maybe clips from an earlier TV show. However, all of these were pretty small and short exposures.
