Is this a joke? I thought he was completely being honest.

...

This KIND of thing happens? Sure she's a little SHY.

Haha, lol. So funny OMC, gonna go get some mountain dew and doritos then go "oooooooooohhhhhhh" while watching burn complications for the next few hours.

I've heard of the "Apple Jack being a background pony" joke for ages (and do kind of agree; she needs more screen time!) But Fluttershy? I don't know. I feel like she stands out as much as Pinkie Pie and Rainbow. I would like to see more of her though. Just not the same old overcome fear episodes - they are way over done.

You're missing the pink haired, super pure and innocent Mary Sue err Fluttershy . :dry:

 

If Fluttershy is a Mary Sue, the rest of the Mane Six are, too. As are the princesses and all of the backgrounders, and everybeing in Equestria ...

You can't really say anything about the backgrounders, you barely know anything (if at all) about their personalities/past etc. And the rest of the ponies from the Mane Six are all shown to have certain not-so-good traits.

 

AJ is unmannered, blunt and unfeminine.

RD is stubborn and self centered.

Pinkie can get really obnoxious at times.

Twily is an OCD nerd with occasional mental breakdowns.

Rarity is a drama queen that's too obsessed with her appearance and who chases the lightspot at all times.

 

And Fluttershy... She's just shy. In a cute way that makes her even more adorable anyway. :fluttershy:

 

The only other two Mary Sues I can think of in this show are princess Celestia and princess Cadence (although they dont have too much screentime and we don't actually know too much about them...)

Fluttershy finds it difficult to open up and be herself, she can't always get her point across - especially, as in Bats, when it might help the situation - and she is dealing with a lot of repressed rage (which is fairly badly and inconsistently written a lot of the time, but there we go).

For a second I thought this was going to be a Mentally Advanced Series reference where Twilight constantly forgets "the yellow one" is important in any way.

 

Personally I think Fluttershy has the most depth of any of the 6.

Fluttershy is the only one of the mane six who has displayed both development and growth this season. 

 

Quite impressive for a "background pony."

 

That is sadly true. The mane 6 got jipped this entire season.
