KatonRyu 1,033 December 16, 2016 Share December 16, 2016 For the opening two-parter, it went something like this. "I can't believe I'm giving this a shot." "Well, the animation and voice acting's pretty good." "Heh, I like Twilight. I'd react the same way to these weird ponies." "Of course the evil returns. Well, better watch part 2, then." "Oh God she's gonna sing...wait, Twilight has the same reaction? Damn, they know what they're doing with this." "TASTE THE RAINBOW MOTHERFUCKER!" That about sums it up, I think.

cider float 2,538 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 First part, ooohhh, looks innocent, lighthearted and fun without being lame. Second episode... ehhh, okay. Third episode, looks like a typical cartoon now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,441 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 I remember there were a bunch of different colors, then I fell asleep. I think I slept for like an hour. Good nap. 1 And that’s the bottom line, ‘cause Stone Cold said so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splashee 28,564 December 24, 2019 Share December 24, 2019 The first episode was uninteresting to me. I knew it would get better eventually, but I would never have watched the entire series if I hadn't been told to. The first episode is not a good episode, not by any standards. Compare it to the first episode of Futurama, which had me hooked immediately! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denim&Venöm 19,095 December 24, 2019 Share December 24, 2019 This isn't as childish as I thought it was. Still not as cool as turnabout storm though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Doopliss 2,351 December 25, 2019 Share December 25, 2019 This pretty decent, maybe this so is better than what I thought it was. 1 Signature by @Sparklefan1234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunatic_Moonwalker 52 December 29, 2019 Share December 29, 2019 Thats an interesting story with nice art style and animations. It relaxed me but I didn´t expect me to watch the whole show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
applesjck 5,601 December 29, 2019 Share December 29, 2019 I was pretty young when I watched the first episode (around 9 or 10), so my reaction was probably similar to any other kid who liked MLP at the time! I though it was pretty great. 2 Lover of all things Applejack. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluori 43 December 31, 2019 Share December 31, 2019 I thought to myself "yeah, I can see why people like this." I was excited to be in a fandom, as this was my first. I was little embarrassed, but I was 10 at the time, so I had an excuse. Now I'm 18 and I have less of one, but I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparklefan1234 171,441 December 31, 2019 Share December 31, 2019 After I watched "Friendship is Magic 1&2": "That was pretty terrible.". After I watched "Ticket Master": "That was a lot better." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash In 22,378 December 31, 2019 Share December 31, 2019 "This isn't nearly as bad I thought. Actually, it's pretty good." 1 At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it. Now I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey 4,248 December 31, 2019 Share December 31, 2019 Well, I had a fever, so it’s hard to say. I know I felt resigned watching it, since there was nothing else on TV and I was too sick to read a book but too bored to rest. Then I thought, “Hey, this is actually good voice acting.” And probably, “Rainbow Dash is actually really adorable.” I didn’t pay much attention to the plot, because I’d caught the episode halfway through. But the voice acting stayed me for days until I caved in and binged the series. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clawdeen 14,557 January 5, 2020 Share January 5, 2020 Most people I knew told me it took acouple episodes before they got hooked. Thats how it was for me. It took me a few episodes before I got hooked. *Absolutely FLAWLESS* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpicEnergy 23,219 January 6, 2020 Share January 6, 2020 The first episode I watched was season 1 episode 2. I just watched the part where the mane six fought Nightmare Moon and where Luna reformed, and I found it to be very entertaining and interesting as I love battle scenes and plot twists. *totally not up to any shenanigans* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Gallagher 33,588 May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 I started from the very beginning out of morbid curiosity just to see what it was all about. I thought, 'I'll probably turn it off. I don't think I'll make it far,' but I kept at it and then my life changed... I just remember after that backstory setup, and cutting to the first shot of Twilight, 'Elements of Harmony. Hmm... I know I've heard of those before... *looks up* but where?' The theme started to play. For about a second, I think we all probably thought, 'What are we doing? We're teenage lads giving this a shot?' In the next second, 'Actually, you know, this is quite nice.' After the end of the two-parter, in tears of joy, 'That's it. I'm a brony forever and always.'... Or was that just me?

TBD 17,254 May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 Oh the animation and the characters are adorable and nice...GaSP! I love Nightmare Moon! Wait there’s going to be singing? *cringe and skip. Resume. The battle is kinda lame. “Friendship lesson commence! Oh now I understand why friendship is magic!” Overall I was hooked. Also, I did got used to the cliche musical as they’ve gotten better. ♪ "I practice every day to find some clever lines to say, to make the meaning come through"♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppleButt 8,675 May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 (edited) Honestly I was hooked when I watched the winter wrap up song that I came across causing me to go watch the first episode. I knew I was gonna love it from just that video because I thought the characters were just too cute and awesome. So the first episode I was set on loving it and I did.

Lucky Bolt 35,064 May 10, 2020 Share May 10, 2020 The first episode of G4 I’ve ever seen was Mysterious Mare Do Well back when it aired in 2011. I was 10 years old at the time so of course I was like “Hey I really like this show! Rainbow Dash is so cool I wanna be just like her!” 1 ☆ My socials ☆ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeglow Flicker 13,697 May 11, 2020 Share May 11, 2020 My initial thoughts when I started watching the first episode was: "Oh no. This isn't going to be one of those go out and socialise things is it?" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
