Twilicious 150 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 Hello my lovely brony friends, My boyfriend is on the verge of becoming a full-fledged brony. He really enjoys all the mane 6 for different and well thought out reasons. He enjoyed "Applebuck Season" "Griffon the Brush-Off" "Winter Wrap Up" and "A Canterlot Wedding" Parts 1 and 2. I want to get him really into it. He has said that he really likes Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack. I thought of a few discussion questions I'd like your opinion on: Which episodes should I get him to watch? Which episodes do you find the best episodes to start people off on? Have you ever bronified someone before? Do you think baked goods will aid in my quest? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavelColt 22,880 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 -Fall Weather Friends should be next on his list. Has both Applejack and Rainbow Dash, and focuses around their athletic rivalry. Also, after that, Stare Master. Focuses around Fluttershy, and the Cockatrice is cool. -It's up to the individual and their preferences. Going by he likes those three characters, any episode that has something to do with them, obviously. -Not yet. -Cupcakes always help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots o' goodies there. Better run, run, run, run, run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverwisp the Bard 2,353 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 Depends on your boyfriendf I'd say. I'd recommend: Over a Barrel: Awesome jokes, nice story It's about Time: popculture galore, plus Ceberus I introduced MLP to some of my friends and while they enjoy the references and some of the memes, they did not yet turn into full fledged bronies. My Art Thread, updated (almost) daily Tomorrow will take us away, far from home No one will ever know our names But the bard songs will remain.

Espelancer 108 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 It sounds like he is already on his way there. He will probably really get into it on his own at this point. After all, he has already watched 4 episodes and has an informed opinion of the cast and the show in general, and did not reach an unfavorable conclusion. 2 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.

Dreadmallon 353 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 You should focus on Season 2 episodes, since it focuses more on individuality than Twilight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, he has already watched 4 episodes and has an informed opinion of the cast and the show in general, and did not reach an unfavorable conclusion. That's definitely true, but I'm pretty sure that part of the pleasure for him (at least at this point) is watching how excited I get while watching. Seeing me giggle at Pinkie Pie, etc. So it really is something we're undertaking together and I am the one exposing him to it. The active onus in this particular project is on me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
False Perception 482 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 Luna Eclipsed, and Dragonshy. And of course, the S2 finale. Swoop said: If something does happen to go horribly wrong, please, blame Zoop.

Radiance64 7,053 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 You showed him Canterlot Wedding and Winter Wrap Up already and he liked them, nice. My personal favorite Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Applejack episodes are Read it and Weep, Putting Your Hoof Down, and The Last Roundup respectively, so I'd say try those. Also Lesson Zero, those characters have great scenes in that one too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
False Perception 482 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 Lesson Zero is where Fluttershy mortal kombats a bear, right? That one clip should make the entire season worthwhile. I always use that when converting. 4 Swoop said: If something does happen to go horribly wrong, please, blame Zoop. Frenzyhero: Lurking extraordinaire, brony impersonator. Have a question?

CheeryLee 8 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 - You should show him episodes of the characters he doesn't like. (My opinion.) so he gets used to other ponies, and may get a new favorite - The first 5 episodes of season one. It shows really what my little pony is about, (Again, my opinion.) - Yes I have in fact. I have bronified my best friend. He really enjoys it now. - I really don't know! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpicPwny 33 May 25, 2012 Share May 25, 2012 - Read it and Weep, The Last Roundup, S2 Intro Thingy, S2 Finale... and more... *squee* - Really, I say he should watch S1 EP 1 then EP 2, then EP3 etcetera... - Once, yes. And I'm working on someone now. - Muffins... p.s. introduce him to Derpy Hooves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skittles 16 May 26, 2012 Share May 26, 2012 Let him read Cupcakes. That will do the trick. no wait don't do it! I'm just kidding. Everyone else is saying what I would say. So yeah. CRUSH. KILL. DESTROY. SWAG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponyvangelist 732 May 26, 2012 Share May 26, 2012 Hard to go wrong with Read It and Weep. It has Dashie, Daring Do, Ninja Dash and the best Indiana Jones spin-off since Indiana Jones. Everything a boy could want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilicious 150 May 29, 2012 Author Share May 29, 2012 He called himself a brony yesterday. I think we're a success everyone. He loved Fall Weather Friends, Swarm of the Century and Party of One. We finished most of season one and we're moving on to season two shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deidre Asada 163 May 29, 2012 Share May 29, 2012 Also if you're boyfriend wants to catch up on the show I highly recommend this site it has all the season to the show.. http://mlp-fim.com/50 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilicious 150 July 13, 2012 Author Share July 13, 2012 Just an update for all of you, in case you're interested. He now fully admits to his broniness. We've watched all of the first season and we're up to "May the Best Pet Win!" in season two. He has changed his favourite to Rarity. He even installed ponyhoof on his facebook and selected Rarity as his main pony. I deem this bronification a success! /) <---that's meant as a brohoof for all of you who helped, or who were even rooting for me to bronify him.
