Pastel 7,630 April 28, 2014 Share April 28, 2014 (edited) She's a good character. But what makes her amazing is her interactions with the other characters. Her dialogue with Fluttershy in Luna Eclipsed is so funny. And in For Whom the Sweetie(...) or in Sleepless in Ponyville, I loved how she helped Sweetie Belle/Scootaloo. And she has the best cutie mark ever. Edited April 28, 2014 by Blobulle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luximus 482 April 28, 2014 Share April 28, 2014 It's one hell of a conspiracy theory. You see, ever since Luna was on the moon, she cast a spell on all who gazed at her in the nighttime sky. So when Bronies watched the first episode, they saw the moon and the spell was cast upon them, making them believe that Luna was best pony. Then when she came down to Equestria, of those who didn't gaze at the moon, but instead at Twi, she made those who didn't like her to love her. This is why we have most of everyone's profile pic or sig. to be a pic of Luna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe 217 April 28, 2014 Share April 28, 2014 I'm getting tired of these threads. There is literally one for every pony Why does everyone hate Applejack? Why does everyone like Fluttershy? Why does everyone hate Rainbow Dash? Why does everyone like Rarity? and so forth. Just stop it. I am a brony, and I am proud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Wulfington 276 April 28, 2014 Share April 28, 2014 I think she's an ok character, but I have a strong feeling that the vast majority of her fandom likes her just because she's "of the night", so it makes her "dark" and "edgy". Then add in the sympathetic backstory and you got yourself a character the masses will love! 3 Proud Supporter of Communism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlutterDash4072 190 April 28, 2014 Share April 28, 2014 She's a funny character, but she knows how to be serious when the situation calls for it. She also isn't as over-the-top as Pinkie is, so she can be goofy without being annoying. Signature made by Wheatley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hive King 2,001 April 29, 2014 Share April 29, 2014 Because she's edgy, she nearly dethroned teh evul Trollestia, she rules the night, she got her ass kicked, and she's dark colored? I honestly really don't mind her at all...until people started overhypping her as an excuse to bash Celestia. I hate overrating and underrating and so I now despise Luna(Trixie for the same reason) 1 "Aren’t we the same? You know, aren’t you carrying the same mindset as I am?

DoubleRainbow_Dash 317 April 29, 2014 Author Share April 29, 2014 Wow I'm gone for a day and I get so many replies! Personally though I think Luna is OK, it seems like the fandom loves to expand on her in fanfiction and I really like her dream-walking ability. Though am I the only one who thinks there will be a Applebloom/Luna episode in season 5? Anyway I just like her as a character and has room for growth but may be a tad bit overrated (like a certain 'great and powerful' pony I know).

It gets annoying when all you see is Luna being seen as morally superior and better than Celestia and no one points out that she was psychotic "Aren’t we the same?

Megas 28,149 April 30, 2014 Share April 30, 2014 She's 'aight I think a fuckton of fans have a tendency to overhype the character to stupid high proportions. I can see how some might be attracted to the night or her mysteriousness but fans really blow it out of proportion Also I found Luna Eclipse to be a seriously overrated episode, that really didn't do much for her imo(I'm probably one of the 3 people here who thinks this). I found Luna much more interesting in both Sleepless in Ponyville and For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duster Dawnhorse 248 April 30, 2014 Share April 30, 2014 At first I didn't really like Luna because what we knew about her was minimal and then Luna Eclipsed, one of the most fandering episodes of the series (not THE most, that goes to Magic Duel and my vehement dislike of that episode) which does not do much to expand on her character. What made her grow on me was the fanworks around her. The music, the fan made mythos of how Nightmare Moon came about and how Celestia dealt with the hardest decision in her life. That's what got me to like her a bit more. Still doesn't change the fact I like Cadance the best.

Lunalover 7 May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 (edited) I do really love Luna very much (she's my waifu). Here are the reasons why I love her so much: 1. She is the most beautiful character I have ever seen. I am deeply attracted to her 2. I take great sympathy and empathy in her deep emotional pain. 3. I can really relate to her: She likes different things like I do. She is a pony who is treated like an introvert or a background person like me. She has a hard time relating with ponies other than herself or her close family and friends, also like me. She also is someone who keeps to herself and does her own thing, like me. With all things considered, I LOVE LUNA VERY MUCH!!! . I would marry her if I could! Edited May 26, 2018 by Lunalover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna's Admirer 945 May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 I like Luna for several reasons. She's more innocent and cute than her elder sister for instance. I like her sound and her traditional way to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaiser5578 341 May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 (edited) she's relatable than again our only other alicorn choices are Twilight (better pony, not better princess), Celestia (a goddess who got more development in the mini-series 'Fundamentals of magic' than she did in 7 season), merchandisable disney princess (sorry Cadence but it had to be said), and a baby Luna comes off as the more realistic hero, think about it when Sombra came back, Luna wanted to face him and save the ponies. Celestia on the other hand refused to let her for the sake of sending Twilight on a field trip, because a musical number and a lesson were totally worth risking a city's worth of ponies and were more effective than a pair of goddesses would have been. oh wait, make that two goddesses and a demigoddess. also remember, Nightmare Moon from what we could tell was more of a Venom and Eddy Brock type deal. Luna wanted power and a spotlight, along with revenge. A symbiote, or Nightmare Moon offered her this. She took it, but she was betrayed and overpowered, being turned into a puppet rather than a partner. The elements were kind of like the church bells from spider-man 3 Edited May 26, 2018 by kaiser5578 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDDash 19,248 September 5, 2018 Share September 5, 2018 (edited) She was a former bad ass and i find Woona really cute. Right now she doesn't show up thats often as Celestia, so I don't know the writers don't know how else to use her besides her roll as a children's dreamcatcher, and maybe that one episode where where she had argument with Celestia.
