Rank the mane six and give your reasoning why. My choice is easy
1: Fluttershy
She is super cute and adorable
She reminds me of myself but she's much nicer and more patient
She's very unique
She's 100x better than Twilight and Rainbow Dash combined
She would've been a much better protagonist because I think it would've been more satisfying to watch somepony learn the magic of friendship AND learn how to be a bigger pony
2: Rarity
Very beautiful and pretty
She's the funniest of the mane six
I loved her in Dog and Pony show
Her relationship with Spike is very cute
I appreciate how in any other show she'd be the evil girl, but in this show, she's really nice
3: Applejack
She's always the voice of reason, which I like
She's very humble (unlike someone)
I like her country charm
She can be boring sometimes I guess
4: Pinkie Pie
She's annoying, but I guess she's kinda cute
She feels very one-dimensional
Her element is... Pointless
She was clearly added for laughs (unsuccessful)
5: Twilight Sparkle (Oh boy)
The show puts too much focus on her. I get she's the main character but it's too much
She never gets punished even if she does something really wrong
She's a mary sue
She's a perfectionist to an annoying extent. It causes problems and she solves them pretending she had nothing to do with them
She has to be carried by other ponies to even do half the stuff she does. I get it's supposed to be "friendship" but still
I get her nerdiness and obliviousness is supposed to be charming, and I agreed at first, but now I'm slowly starting to find it very annoying. Especially when she tries to act uncharacteristially 'goodie-goodie'
I would argue that she's not even necessary with an element of kindness. I don't say this just because Fluttershy is my favorite, but if you think about it, kindness is the most important element. You don't have to be honest to have friends, you don't have to be generous to have friends, you certainly don't have to make people/ponies laugh to have friends, but you have to be nice to have friends. Maybe loyalty, but I just preter RD
6: Rainbow Dash (Fight. Me.)
She has the undeserved reputation of "most shipped pony" when Fluttershy and Twilight have more ships
She gets too much focus in the show (she's the one who gave everyone their cutie mark, she has fanclubs, she's the one who goes with Sunset and Twilight in that one Equestria thing, she's the one the mane six have get in Return To Harmony)
She's very annoying, selfish, boastful, and I don't see much likable qualities
She gets away with so much, just like Twilight
Most of my hate comes from the fandom's treatment, so I admit I am a little bias towards her
