My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music
Trixie's Great and Powerful Guide v1.8a
Octavia & Vinyl Edition
Brief Introduction
SpoilerMy 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.

Re: My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music
Whoo, new thread! *drinks frosty milkshake*
Edit: Trixie, you are a wonderful person for starting these threads for us with your ever-so-helpful OP. No one is going to object to your choice of thread name and theme, no one is going to start the next thread before you do. If they did we'd love and tolerate the *muffins* out of them until they let you start the next thread. If you think the next thread should be Spitfire/Wonderbolts themed, you will make that thread and it will be incredible.Last edited by ScionoftheVoid; 2011-05-20 at 05:25 PM.

I preemptively vote that thread X should have a Doctor Whooves theme and be called My Little Pony X - All The Strange, Strange Ponies.
Just so we can drive darthbobcat insane.

Re: My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music
First: nice, though would Rainbow Dash call foaling "winning?" Childbirth hurts.
Okay, I came up with something. Clearly, Beauty Brass' story is that she wasn't a clever pony, and her mommy cried a lot, and playing brass was her favorite and (gets pelted by rocks).
Okay, fine. Take dos.
Beauty Brass was always an average student, getting straight C's. She just assumed that she'd inherit her mom and dad's shop, which sold cosmetics and fine brass and copper metal products. Then one day, in the fourth grade, it was time for the little ponies to have music lessons. The teacher played the Washington Post March on his sousaphone and Beauty Brass fell in love instantly.
However, the sousaphone was too big for her. She made herself sick that night because she drank a whole gallon of milk, because her father had always said that milk made little ponies grow. Obviously, this didn't work.
Still, she persevered. The little pony, who had never been excited by anything, was going to play the sousaphone one day. She started on her trumpet, then a trombone, then a tuba until she was big enough to carry a sousaphone. She became a mistress of all things brass in the process, and her music was such that even the most stone hearted ponies were brought to tears.
She loved being in the marching band, but after she got out of college with a degree in music performance, she found that she couldn't make a living in the marching band. So, she went into more orchestral, classical type music. After a few years of bopping around Equestria, she joined a band of musicians who played at the grand galloping gala. While the stuffy music wasn't her favorite, it paid the bills.
And then she got the request to play the Pony Pokie. She loved playing non stuffy music and it reignited her love for all things brassy. So, she quit her job in the quartet and went back to her home town of Ponyville to start a marching band at Ponyville Middle School, so that she could give other little ponies the same love for music that she had.

Re: My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music
Good Galloping Goddess, pony thread! I thought I left you in the low 40's? And I even lost the first half of my quoteblock.
I have also fallen to the Dark Side of the Pony fandom.
Spoiler
I saw this and started admiring Celestia's curves. There is no hope for me now; save yourselves!
I will pick up my black clothing and join Darth Lix and Grand Moff IAmTwoKittens, and figure out what my rank is. *sigh*
While forum Trixie is enjoyable to talk to, have you had a conversation with show Trixie? She has hidden depths, I'm sure.
Your immediate compliance is enjoyable, as now I don't have to pressure you without actually pressuring you. Saved me some time, I appreciate it ;)
Oh, no. No Appologies, you ride this one to the ground waving your cowboy hat, and you're gonna like it, mister!
I need a double rainbow thrower.
I also think the PPL is a WMD, and banned by the Geneva convention.
It's the haircut. Straight hair and straight bangs are stereotypical.*
Oh? Some uh... Associates of mine that I do not have direct connections to at all would like a quiet word with you.
Geeze, man! Who so you keep shooting that stuff around?! Someone's going to get hurt one day. Show some caution.
... Don't we already? You gain nothing via this plan. Except a shot at being evil for the Luz.*
I find your avatar to be poetically in line with your statement.*
It was worth a shot, sugarcube.
-
Now to go back and find the other things I wanted to respond to. Is there a limit on the multiquote's maximum cache amount? I seem to cap at ten, but it may be coincidence.

Re: My Little Pony VIII: Friendship is Music
And I wake up to a new Pony thread. What a pleasant surprise!
Now for some page one resolutions:
- As soon as school is over in 2-3 weeks, I WILL TEACH MYSELF HOW TO DRAW AGAIN.
- By thread's end I'll hopefully finish a fic that's been burning in the back of my mind.
- Find a way to escalate this shipping war between EsperKun and Razqol.
- Get one over that blasted darthbobcat!
