“they had quite a critical, holier-than-thou approach”
synonyms: sanctimonious, self-righteous, smug, self-satisfied;
Me: Hooray! Happiest moment in the whole series! An almost five-year conflict has FINALLY been resolved!
Everyone else: Eww, those cutie marks look so ugly with the colors! These fan-made redesigns look so much better!
Every Little Thing She Does airs.
Me: That was a fun episode. Sure, Starlight screwed up, but at least she learned her lesson in the end.
Everyone else: That was an awful episode! Starlight deserves to rot in Tartarus for her crimes!
To Where and Back Again airs:
Me: That was a really great two-parter. I like episodes that don’t focus on the main characters, as those are a nice change of pace.
Everyone else: Worst finale EVER! The princesses were useless as usual, and Chrysalis was even lamer than in her first appearance! That creator’s pet Glimmer Gumdrops doesn’t deserve her own two-parter!
The changelings transform.
Me: Oh, those look so cool! Like technicolor deer mixed with stag beetles. They remind me of Pokemon, or even something out of Princess Mononoke.
Everyone else: Ewww, those colors are hideous! You ruined the changelings, Hasbro! You turned them into technicolor eye poison!
The previews for Rock Solid Friendship are shown.
Me: Cool, another Maud episode. Those are often fun.
Everyone else: ANOTHER Maud episode?! She’s so overused! I demand a Celestia episode!
Tempest Shadow is revealed.
Me: That’s a cool design for a villainous pony.
Everyone else: Owww, the edge! Who let the edgy pony creator OC into the canon?!
Capper is revealed.
Me: An anthro cat? What an odd thing to see in the franchise. Then again, G1 had Catrina, so maybe it’s a reference to her? I want to know more about this character.
Everyone else: Ewww, furries! Hasbro’s ruining Faust’s vision by introducing bipedal funny animals!
A Royal Problem airs.
Me: That was a really good episode. I hope the bronies are happy that we finally got a Celestia episode.
Everyone else: Why did Celestia and Luna have to share an episode with that overpowered creator’s pet Starlight?! And why didn’t she get punished for her crime?! The only good part of this episode was Daybreaker.
Mirror Magic airs.
Me: That was a fun EQG special. I thought it was really funny when Sunset forgot how to pony, and I liked seeing her interactions with Starlight. I also really like Starlight’s human form.
Everyone else: Worst Equestria Girls thing ever! That awful Glimmer stole the spotlight from the Mane Six AGAIN!
The movie is finally released.
Me: That was a FANTASTIC film! Probably the best thing to come out of the My Little Pony franchise, and was practically Studio Ghibli compared to the other crappy animated films this year. It reminded me of a Disney film in a lot of places, and it felt good seeing a 2D-animated film in theaters after missing out on The Princess and the Frog. I loved a lot of the new characters, and the Storm King was a great villain, being a nice mixture of funny and menacing.
Everyone else: That was a mediocre film! The princesses were useless AGAIN, Applejack and Fluttershy had nothing to do, there were too many new characters and not enough time to develop them, the story was generic, Hasbro played it safe, and the Storm King was a terrible villain!
A new season is announced.
Me: Oh, great. There’s just going to be more of the usual bitching and moaning.
Everyone else: Woo-hoo! All aboard the hype train!
Rumors of Season 9 being the last season arrive.
Me: If this is true, this is great! Now the show can finally rest, and the other bronies can stop complaining about everything.
Everyone else: What?! Only nine seasons?! But I want it to last for a THOUSAND seasons!
