What episode got you hooked?


Penny Lane

Recommended Posts

Episode 1 and 2 got me interested, but at that time I didn't want to tell anybody that I liked this show.

Episode 16 (Sonic Rainboom) was SO AWESOME!

By that time I didn't like the show at all ;_;

I LOVED IT. *goes around only talking about ponies*

Hooked By Episode 1

 

I watched the show at the urging of a fellow anime fan as something of a lark. My Little Pony? Yeah, right. I figured it was good for a laugh, if nothing else.

 

The tipping point for me was the scene in Twilight's study when she was dictating her letter to Princess Celestia and Spike ran into trouble spelling "precipice". Something about the music, timing, voice acting and general feel of the show just clicked, and I've been a big fan ever since.

 

So I was hooked even before Twilight arrived in Ponyville. Obviously I wasn't a hard sell.

 

I know a lot of fans tend to think of the first two episodes as being perhaps a bit flat compared to the rest of the series, but Episode 1 is still one of my top favorites. It has a lot of polish, introduces the mane cast to us for the first time, and there's simply no fat in that episode. The pacing is perfect.

 

But that's not the point. The point is...

 

Ponies über alles! B)

I was hooked from the beginning but the first episode that made me realize just how special this show truly is was Winter Wrap Up. I can't explain the joy I felt when I heard that song for the first time. It's something I would experience again and again with each new song, but never quite the same as Winter Wrap Up.

That is defeinetly burned in my memories of becoming a brony for the first time, that and bridle gossip, I watched all 26 episode in 1 night, good times, I have to say, that pinkie pie song still brings back good memories, can't believe it's been so long

I got hooked because of hours of listening to 5-second Kyrospawn clips on Youtube. Then, I watched the first episode all the way through to the then-recent episode.

 

Actually, I think it was the Flutterguy clips that got me to watch the actual show. I remember thinking "OK, I gotta see if this is legit."


I'm just no good at writing signatures. Coming up with words is like... really hard.

However, you should read The Espelancer Chronicles: a blog detailing my preparations leading up to and my experiences studying at The Yamasa Institute in Okazaki, Japan (in the Aichi prefecture outside of Nagoya) for a 1-month SILAC course from July 16 - August 16, 2012.

Me too! That clip was the very first thing I ever saw from MLP:FIM. I just had to go check it out after that!

The first episode. I had no idea that the My Little Pony franchise was capable of substance, humor... basically, any entertainment value outside of being very colorful. From then, I was hooked.

An online friend kept talking about it and eventually one bored day I took the plunge and had caught up with the show in about a day.

Winter Wrap Up.

 

 

Nuff said

 

This.

 

The first two episodes were fairly good. They weren't amazing, but they certainly made me curious enough to stick around. But Winter Wrap Up was the episode that finally made me just go "Woah. That was awesome." The entire song I was just like :D

Well, I wasnt actually intrested in the show after being urged by a friend to watch the first two episodes. But I keeped watching anyway because the animation and art style was so appealing to me. Then after about the fourth or fifth episode i was hooked on the wonderful plot line and the innocents and character depth of the ponys~

It was The Ticket Master for me. I'd started at episode one and I watched it and episode 2 and I kinda liked it. Then I watched this one and I kept on watching.

Thats how it works, by the 3rd episode you watch, there's no going back

My friend told me about MLP:FiM. I first watched S1E17 a year or so ago, and liked it okay.

 

BUT THEN

 

I saw S2E05 and S2E08 last November or December.

 

I fell in love.

At first I found out what Bronies were and thought "That is so dumb.". But 1 thought kept nagging at me. If so many people like it, there must be something there. Eventually, I gave in to curiosity and watched episode 1. then I watched episode 2. Halfway though episode 2 I realized "Holy Crap I like this show." The rest is history.

I don't exactly remember the episode that got me hooked to the show. When I made the decision to check the show out, I started with the first two episodes.

Episode 1, thought it did take me two months from it's initial airing to actually watch it.

For me, The Ticket Master got me hooked, I didn't like the first two episodes all that much :/ So what about you?

 

Same story for me. Ticketmaster was the first episode I like and Applebuck Season made me want to watch all of the rest of the episodes. And that is what I did. Now look where I am.
