Jamesblorg39welsh 125 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 Vinyl scratch is definetly up there when it comes to favorite backround ponys so how would you feel about an episode featuring her and Octavia "If you feel the need to treat me like garbage, I'll feel the need to throw you into the back of a compressing garbage truck." "I'd rather "go to hell" for hugging a guy I like then makeout in heaven with a girl I don't."

Felix 1,363 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!!!!! That'd be amazing! I love both of them! (Especially Vinyl <3) But then again...it would be a little strange to randomly bring in two background characters. It would probably be/would be one of those things they never come back to again, such as the Flash Sentry thing. 1 Credit to Kyoshi for the awesome signature!

Onylex 2,837 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 (edited) I think that would be awesome! I doubt it will eve happen but, it would be so epic if it did. I mostly have doubts because it spark this whole fan made episode thing and people would go crazy saying that it was a bad idea but none the less it would be cool. I would love to hear both Vinyl and Octavia's voice for the first time. Edited August 15, 2013 by Onylex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimCW 658 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 (edited) While I love the concept, I'm not a fan of the idea. Once you take something out of obscurity and put it on the front, often times it becomes less desirable. Anime did this for many, as has gaming. Once they became popular the quality nose dived in all regards to feed the new masses, and an excess of cheap spinoffs ensued. 13 years ago I could hop a completely random game of Quake online and have a full on conversation with people, AND shoot up people with rocket launchers. Few whiners, few complaints, and respect was given to AFK players (I.E. usually no one would shoot them. Not always, some jerks did exist, but they were few.) Nowadays.. tis a match of who has the fowlest language, or complete silence unless among friends. While I doubt that could happen here so much, having an episode about them would ruin the mystery behind each character. Fan observations and standing belief's regarding each character would end up becoming skewed in favor the the new "canon" personalities, ruining things for many long time fans of the characters. Now if they did a Comic for them (and TMK in a way they are) that'd be one thing. No voices, not technically canon, nothing really changed, sounds fun. But an episode, would kinda blow things up... Don't get me wrong. I'd never go on the bandwagon with others and start crying "WAAAAAAAAAHHHHH DAY RUINED MAH PONEH!!! WAAAAHHHHHHH" like I've seen some obsessive fans do Despite my love of the Vinyl Scratch character. But one thing I know would grind my ears is HEARING her "official" name spoken... just thinking it makes me want to slap the nut job that made it official...

Onylex 2,837 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 there actually already is a well made fan animation called epic wub time musicians of ponyville it's really awesome you should check it out Yeah, Iv seen that video before. Its a pretty well put together short considering that its fan-made. I do also think that doing something like putting in to background characters in their own full episode would make more people question why there aren't other background ponies that get something like this and if the creators are just taking ideas directly from the fans. In short I think the whole thing would end up backfiring on them and would cause an uproar. None the less I do like the concept of something like this happening.

Shawn Parks 1,799 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 I was just thinking today that it would be pretty funny if they did an episode that featured Octavia and Vinyl in which it turned out that they either didn't know each other or they hated each other.

The Awesome One 1,315 August 15, 2013 Share August 15, 2013 (edited) No, even if they both had speaking roles they would still be background ponies but if there is ever an episode that is about the Mane 6 going to a concert then there is a very good chance they both will feature in that episode. Maybe as the performers themselves or just fans of music who are there to attend the concert. I can also see Rarity and Octavia getting on well together if Octavia is anything like she is from Epic Wub Tim, sophisticated and has refined tastes.
