what was your brony admission episode


Soaring Symphony

Recommended Posts

Like a lot of Bronys (I think) I originally got into watching the show by marathoning all of the episodes on Netflix.  I was just wondering, when you started watching the show, which episode blew you away so much on how good it was that you said to yourself “I am officially a Brony”.  For me, it was "Return Of Harmony".  So, which episode was your admission into Bronydom?

probably winter wrap up.  i liked the show before but didnt think to myself i was a brony. That episode featured my favorite pony twilight and had an awesome song.  Then I wanted some merch and realized I was probably just a brony.  I didn't really want to as i still thought it was sorta weird but over a few days I accepted it and became a happy new brony.

I was already a brony before I watched the show, but I watched the very first one before forming an opinion on the show. My friend said "If we wanna be come true bronies, we need to watch the first two episodes."

The first episode I saw was Friendship is Magic and thereafter I watched them in the order they came in. Obviously I enjoyed them from the start, otherwise I wouldn't have kept watching them.

 

But I'd say the episode that truly cemented my fanaticism was...

 

 

Magical Mystery Cure

Party of One. It was the first MLP episode I watched, I read it after reading cupcakes cuz crazy pinkie pie.

Also, maybe the bit in the first episode when twilight says something like "shes not going to sing is she?" when pinkie starts to sing giggle at the ghosties. Ironically I like most of the songs in this series.

I don't think any episode stood out to me all that much, I didn't really consider myself a brony until after I joined this forum and got to know the community.

The pilot. I saw a brilliant cartoon that is not insulting to its intended audience, that has a dynamic cast of female leads in a market that's generally dominated by poor role models and oversimplified stereotypes, and that gives a badass makeover to some of the titles normally reserved for those stereotypes (namely "Princess").

Dragonshy. The pilot had impressed me enough that I continued watching, but that was the episode that officially hooked me in. Looking back on it, I swear the whole episode reads like a game of D&D.

After watching the first four episodes in the summer of 2011 one day, I either considered adding a deviantART tagline "is probably a Brony now.", and then either didn't do it or did do it and then took it off within a day later.

 

I didn't watch another episode until December 2011, sometime after the 20th. That episode was "Winter Wrap Up" and then I was fully won over into being a Brony, and ended up watching many more episodes over the months.

It was the very first episode for me too, I was hooked pretty quickly.

Interesting. Unlike most people here it would seem I didn't even know what a brony was until I found this place. xP You see, I had no idea the show existed until one day on another forum someone was using an avatar of a pony. I simply passed over it because it didn't mean much to me as it was just another avatar. I saw this person more and more though and long story short I woke up to find my sister watching it. "Winter Wrap Up" was the episode! I allowed myself to watch it and found it was indeed a good show. So, I guess you could say Winter Wrap was what made me into a Brony. I saw the episode and decided it was a good show, watched more, then eventually found this place. :3

I don't think there was a specific episode that got me to admit that I was part of the fandom - joining this forum was pretty much what did that for me. But the episode that first got me to admit that I adored this show about colorful talking horses was Applebuck Season.

I would have to say it was the episode The Ticket Master. After seeing a random episode for the first time (parasprites), I watched a few more episodes of whatever happened to be showing at the time and then decided to scour the internet so I could watch them all in order. I'm not sure what it was, but everything worked perfectly for me in that episode and it clicked. Even today it's still one of my favorite episodes.

The very first episode I ever saw was the sister hooves...(I forgot the title).

I liked that the show was very pleasing to look at and I really liked Applejack for some reason.

I loved the story and the lesson it taught in the episode and I kept wondering why that purple dragon thing kept coming out several episodes later. Eventually, I found out he was also part of the main characters. I don't regret a thing about what I did that day. :)

I would say the first ten episodes as a whole.

 

Why? Because of Twilight's "Dear Princess Celestia" moments, me realizing the moral messages of the show, and me realizing how likeable the ponies are.

All my life needed was a sense of someplace to go. I don't believe that one should devote his life to morbid self-attention. I believe that someone should become a person like other people.

I don't even know, It was kind of progressive. Each episodes I watched made me love the show more and more, but by the end of me finishing season 4 I didn't even called myself a brony just yet, so I can't really tell for sure on that one.

For me, there wasn't one. I just watched the series, fell in love with it over time, and just considered myself a brony. No one episode really counts as my "admission episode," if you will.

Since I watched the episodes in order, for me I think it was The Ticket Master episode. When I watched the first episode and saw it was divided into 2 parts, I felt slightly confused watching the first half. I felt like maybe I had missed some kind of intro to the first season somewhere. But then I continued to watch the 2nd half a few days later and then when I got to the normal length episodes I was hooked.
