Unpopular Opinions Regarding the Show

[RulesofRarity 489]

Ok here goes: 

1. I loathe Derpy 

2. Pinkie Pie is my least favourite pony in the mane six

3. Starlight being better at magic than the physical embodiment of magic was complete and utter bullshit especially because it still hasn't been explained why she's so equal/superior to Twilight. 

4. Cadence deserves episodes that focus on her not her stupid baby.

5. Mary Sue and overrated are just terms used by people to describe characters they don't like; see Twilight and Rainbow Dash. 

6. The Crystal Empire is easily one of my favourite episodes.

To be honest, I don't ship any of the mane 6 characters. They should all remain single. The show's theme is about friendship not love. If you want to ship them, that's fine by me. I only ship secondary or supporting characters, like Dislestia or Strixie, even LyraxBonBon. 

I don't mind if someone made an Alicorn oc, regardless if it's a Mary Sue or not.

I won't be surprised if the mane 6 all turn out to be Alicorns. I know it's gonna happen one of these days. 

 

I get annoyed with shipping in general, because is so arbitrary and just thrown in for whatever reason. Seriously, fandom logic sometimes dictates that two characters are shipping material just by being in opposite sides of the same room  

I don't like the average alicorn OCs for usually being mary sues, but I have better things to do than throw fits over them and I'm not an OC seeker. I only know OCs of fics I've read

Actually, I've started to thing that chance of alicorn Mane6 happening is next to zero, but it's still on my wish list. I mean, who wouldn't want to see this beauty?

Why u insult McFlurry?

 

Anyway, that's not a problem with just McFlurry, Cadance is such a classic disney princess that she's solely dependent on interacting with other characters to stand out. She can't do it on her own legs

I'm not a big fan of Flurry Heart being an alicorn. It should be something that a pony has to earn not something they are born with + she almost doomed the Crystal Empire!

This isn't an unpopular opinion. 80% of the fandom apart the fanboys of Starlight think this.

I thought most people loved Starlight now tbh.

[TheGOAT 64]

1. Starlight is a likeable character

2. I don't care for Maud or Pinkie's family

3. Putting your Hoof Down was a good epiosde

4. Mare Do Well was a good episode

5. Lauren Faust was a below average writer

6. The Dazzlings and Sunset (despite my avatar) sucked as villains.

7. Rainbow Rocks isn't that much of an improvement over the first EQG movie

8. Friendship Games was boring

9. I don't like some of the earlier character designs, the Diamond Dogs especially.

10. Best Night Ever was a good finale

11. The Equestria Girls' songs suck massive balls except for maybe 3 or 4.

12. Magic is explained poorly in some instances, especially Starlight's background and the "ponying up" in the EQG films.

13. The theme song is awful

Lightning Paradise was the local hangout joint where the group usually ended up spending the night.

I actually don't have a problem with Flurry Heart being born an alicorn.

Her mother is an alicorn, so I feel that it makes sense for her to be one as well.

Slice of Life is one of the best episodes in the show.

Twilight is a terrible friendship teacher to Starlight.

Twilight isn't a very good friendship teacher in general since getting her wings. She's tried to prevent more friendships than she's tried to create.

[Tiny Hoofs 200]

1. Flurry Hearts is cute.

2. I'm actually fine with Starlight Glimmer being eventually included into the Mane Six, or more aptly, the Mane Seven. Starlight Glimmer is an interesting character and is much Twilight at the start of the show. Plus it sort of works because the Mane Seven would comprise of 2 Unicorns, 2 Pegasi, 2 Earth ponies and an Alicorn.

3. I'd actually be fine with the introduction of humans into the main show outside of the Equestria Girls brand. Some humans could enter the world of Equestria through one of the portals. Maybe it could be a two-parter in which humans attempt to conquer Equestria. That would be really cool.

4. I like Discord better as a good guy than as a villain. Or at least as an anti-hero of sorts. His affection for Fluttershy is really cute.

The songs in the show are annoying, shallow and uninteresting.

^Them's fighting words!

[ZethaPonderer 2,199]

Let me see.

1. I hate Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy. They're actually pretty annoying characters to sit through.

2. Applejack episodes are the best. Especially when it involves her family issues. So well developed yet nobody cares.  

3. Discord should've never been brought back and remained stoned in the first place.

 

And other things that I don't have in mind right at the moment.

Because she's boring as hell and isn't developing at all. At least Rainbow Dash actually has had development (which you apparently ignore for some reason).

Uhh, I'm just stating an unpopular opinion, but I see your point of why I'm being ignorant about Rainbow Dash so let me elaborate further about her as a character kind sir/mam.

She is the catalyst that started the foundation of the Mane 6 characters of the show during their time as fillies. It was mentioned in an episode I forgot where she's in her filly and performed her Sonic Rainboom. That Rainboom occurred at the same time the other 5 fillies along with Dash have earned their Cutie Marks.

Either way it doesn't matter how good her character development may be to me because by the end of the day, she is an arrogant jock with a heart of gold type of character. I hate those type of characters anyway.

Your passive aggressive attitude of Dash makes me appreciate the Mysterious Mare Do Well episode even more.

[heavens-champion 1,905]

Is it just me, or does Rainbow Dash have a few anger issues?

[PacificGreen 1,163]

I actually didn't like Parental Glideance and thought Hard to Say Anything was an all right episode. 

[cmarston1 5,959]

I believe at this point in time that the main 7 in Equestria Girls have more room to develop as characters than the mane 6 do in FIM.

- I think Starlight's pardon and redemption were handled well.

It was a bit quick, don't you think? 

[ZethaPonderer 2,199]

I'm willing to bet her redemption is not as quick as Discord.

[Tacodidra 61,081]

"Owl's Well That Ends Well" is not just a good episode but one of my absolute favorites in season 1. I especially love the scene where Twilight catches Spike trying to frame Owlowiscious while he's doing that mad laugh.

"Hearth's Warming Eve" is my least favorite episode of the ones I have watched so far. It's still watchable but doesn't have any standout moments for me (then again I never particularly like Christmas episodes).

The Cutie Mark Crusaders song is absolutely brilliant and I love Scootaloo's raw vocals.

At the Gala and Art of the Dress are among my least favorite songs in the show.
