    Default My Little Pony IV: Friendship is Sufficiently Advanced Technology



    Trixie's Great and Powerful Guide v1.5c


    Brief Introduction

    Spoiler
    Show
    My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is a reboot of the MLP franchise by Powerpuff Girls artist Lauren Faust, currently viewed by (almost) the entire internet, not only the intended audience. Here is a place where we discuss the joy of friendship.

    > My Little Pony? Seriously?

    It's a clever show. It has excellent writing, character dynamics, humour, animation, and generally treats kids seriously rather than condescending to them. It has every right to be a 20 minute corporate committee designed infomercial, but it's not.

    > Isn't this a show for little girls?

    Pixar technically makes shows for little boys, and produce some of the best animation in the world.

    > Okay, fine. I'll give it a try. Where do I start?

    No brony could ask for more. I recommend watching the episodes in order. They're all up on Youtube. Unusually, Hasbro seems fine with having the entire series up in public because they've made no move to bring down any of the episodes. Search for "Friendship is Magic Episode 1" and you should find the series pretty easily... Or search for "Sharing is Magic". That is all.

    > Okay, I'm going to watch it but this had better live up to the hype!

    Woah, calm down there. The show is light hearted, optimistic fun but it's not for everyone. It's good fun, the community is good fun, and everyone can do with a reminder that friendship is magic but if it doesn't gel for you we'll love and tolerate you anyway.

    > Iron Hoof/Fan Theories/Shipping

    All in good fun! If it's not your cup of tea, skim it, but this show has triggered a great creative outpouring from the internet. Pony themed fan-art is abundant and often excellent.

    > Derpy Hooves/Doctor Whoof

    Two minor background characters who were adopted as emblems of 4chan. Derpy Hooves is so named due to an animation error in the first episode that had her eyes facing in different directions; 4chan has assigned her the role of Ponyville's mailpony, and her only line so far has been "Muffins". The show's animators are aware of Derpy's popularity and she's shown up a few times recently with her eyes obviously derped. Currently made canon in Feeling Pinkie Keen and in Faust's picture showcased below.

    Dr. Whoof is a pony with an hourglass cutie mark; he saves time and space very quietly off camera.

    Read the title as "My Little Girlfriend".

    Pickelhaubes are hard to draw.

    I meant the fact that somebody said Spike was a girl and decided to combine it with a Yugioh the abridged series reference.

    Ah, sorry then, never watched it

    Though, I have to say I loved what the artist did with the girl's marks, especially RD's, and that tail-like hood on Spike. Perfect

    They're a lot younger than they should be though. With the exception of Spike.

    And also my fridge is full of bagels and there are no angry people across the hall threatening each other with death in various extremely rude manners and... is that a double rainbow I see? Amazing.

    So, now we have a thread title that does not, in fact, let people know which show this is.

    That, that is stupid.

    Like the ponyweek thread that started with the person saying they did not know FiM.

    Why do this?

    On a lighter note.

    You know, I agree with EvilDMMK3. There doesn't seem to be much point in having this as the title and it just looks weird.

    I was under the impression that, not only did they not know FiM, they didn't even like the idea in the first place.

    As always, Trixie, your time in the spotlight is fleeting. Enjoy your remaining 11 hours of Tyranny (pacific time zone)!

    Oh its another stupid April fools thing? And will be gone soon? If that is the case fine, just find a decent picture for the front page, one without the great and powerful ham idealy.

    Am I the only person who really dislikes Trixie?
