Whirlwindmark 41 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 Next season this ship needs to officially end. Spike needs to just let it out and hear the hard truths. 1. Rarity is TOO old for him. 2. Rarity is NOT into dragons(she's kinda racist, aside from Spike) 3. They are not the same species Just end the ship so we can all move on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlareGun45 2,221 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 I agree that the crush needs to end, but not for these reasons. I just don't like how Rarity abuses his crush to have him do things for her. Besides, at this point, the crush is just there for comedy now, but no one's laughing. Last time the crush was cute was in season 4 in Inspiration Manifestation. Now it kinda died out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkfrank 1,125 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 I kinda thought the ship was dead at this point and just kinda a cute little crush Spike had. But yeah, it's a bad ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospekt 11,018 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 The writers had a chance to make something out of Sparity in the first few seasons but now it has just gotten old. Spike and Ember would make a better couple. Not only because they are both dragons, but because I feel they have more in common. 4 Signature by Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, plus dragons age slower, so basically Spike would be able to grow to become a suitable mate. Much better then wanting some pony(who won't live as long as you and can't reproduce a child with you AND does not like you) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackfettgames 50 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 It was played well at first as a childish crush, but some sort of realization of its absurdity should have taken place a long time ago. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n1029 227 October 24, 2017 Share October 24, 2017 I never cared for it and was always astonished that Rarity was the pony Spike crushed on. Of all the Mane 6, she's probably the one with the least in common with him. Literally anyone else in the show would be a more believable marefriend for him than Rarity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the writers only made Spike crush on Rarity because of Rarity's association with gems, which dragons are supposed to like.

The original reason for it was to show that Rarity is supposed to be extremely beautiful, but it never hit anyone other than Spike and it just became a bad joke. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadOBabe 18,997 October 25, 2017 Share October 25, 2017 (edited) Haha!! Well the not-the-same-species thing is absolutely not a deterrent at all for people like me. Interspecies ships and hybrid kids are my JAM. I actually ship Spike with a DIFFERENT pony. I’m just not into their dynamic as a couple. I agree the show needs to put it to rest if they aren’t going to do anything with it, but for those that love it, I don’t mind it at all. As long as Spike is aged up to an adult, ship it to the end of your days for all I care.

Of all the Mane 6, she's probably the one with the least in common with him. Literally anyone else in the show would be a more believable marefriend for him than Rarity. I can actually explain the reasoning behind this. In the first episode Lauren wanted to portray Rarity as being beautiful, moreso than the other characters. Visually this is hard to depict since most adult mares shared one general design. There isn't much that would sell that Rarity would be considered attractive. To get around this Faust used Spike to literally tell the audience that they are expected to imagine Rarity is particularly beautiful. After that they started to reference this scene as they were writing the other season 1 episodes, but before it became a gag, it was literally just a workaround for the limits of the shared design.

And sometimes I write the wrong words, like week and weak for example. Sorry for it already.

FirePuppy 734 October 25, 2017 Share October 25, 2017 I so agree. I'd like to see Spike/Fluttershy occur in Season 8, where he helps her become friends with Ember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
