Funny…these are by far the 2 most popular MLP ships and they had beef with each other back in the day yet neither one became canon

Spike is a child, Rarity is an adult.
 
Sparity is major no-no from me.

@proto29
 
Yup

@mwm23
 
Only one of them found the instructions to get rid of the magic of friendship and moved on to the next stage.

Well it didn’t happen Rarity (pony) didn’t end up with a stallion, dragon or with a mare.

I think having Rarijack in Equestria Girls and Sparity in pony world is a good way of resolving the conflict. Pony Rarity only openly flirted with guys and I don’t really like making same sex relationships just for the sake of it (all the poor guys left behind for no reason)
 
I love Sparity because unlike many characters, Spike has confirmed feelings for Rarity and worked hard to woo and impress her. It is a apparent that Rarity’s approach towards him changed for the better, especially after Gabby made her realize how precious he was for her.
 
But the answer if Spike made it and Rarity truly fell in love in the future, THAT is still fiction

@proto29
 
True.

@mwm23
 
the principle of couples shown in the end are those where the community was not toxic on it.
 
in those regarding episode 26 season 9 it is strange.  
but for me, he’s here to make rarity react, with the risk of losing spike.  
for a one it is she who must go to spike, she must evolve.  
Gabby is for me one of the too rare friends of spike who only has friends of his sister’s entourage.  
(big mac; discord)

@proto29
 
Yes “spike has a crush on rarity as he learns to be a relationship feels like” but that’s it. That never happen as they never stay together (my opinion is a bad idea for the young audients but if both characters were older is yes and not naming season 9 episode 26 at all which didn’t happen). Correct that’s all the ships that people love and still love (except for lybron and cheesepie that came true on the show) were deleted as the possibly excepted only two or possibly they didn’t want to add other characters to the mix of ships as the crew (who works on the show) love their own ships than listen to the viewer (except for lybron as the fans and crew agree about as for cheesepie possibly people didn’t like ship at all but still give it to the viewer).
 
If the show was TV-PG instead of TV-Y yes you will see a lot of shippings (Straight,Bi, and Gay) yes including sparity or rarijack ect. With Lybron had to risk it as possibly nagative feedbacks by parents.
 
Development could be great if Spike and Rarity was added more on the script but didn’t happen sadly.

seriously?  
No, it’s just a fiction with character building and developments.
 
spike is a young dreamer, who had a crush. but he learns what a relationship is.  
rarity it has ambition and great dream for its future. but its it also causes the tore.  
AJ she had to assume the role of responsible adult. for me she is locked in her role.
 
however the series has made them evolve, they have indeed had a development.  
But the problem is we’re not the target audience.  
All these stories are therefore secondary or too light for our expectations.  
So the fans write these stories.
 
for my part I reproach the freedoms taken unrelated to the show.

@Background Pony #334C  
Some memes are just made for the lulz I mean I rather rarijack over sparity but I laughed when I see this
 
@proto29  
Well of course in fiction, none of these characters are real XD
 
but seriously the most part of the ships only exist in fanfiction and any of these two are not exception…

@proto29  
Well both are omnipresent but differently and but both are fictional ships too (let’s not ignore that sparity is still a fan ship too). That both didn’t came real on the pony world.

there is actually no debate.
 
rarijack exists only in fiction but this public is omnipresent to satisfy their fangirls.
 
in comparison sparity is a couple who share the fans from the beginning.  
often trample by some artists but yet several episodes were devoted to them.

I like Sparity

@Background Pony #334C  
Everyone has opinions.

Spike prefers shipping his crush with himself over AJ?  

As a sparity fan i have to say that I do not understand that kind of meme/artworks - If You want to show how good is Your shipping, please to draw wonderful, artwork, comic, etc. For example I totally don’t like rarijack - but it isn’t a reason for me to down-vote rarijack arts or do sth like this. Even If I know that many of my artworks are geting negative votes only becaus it’s sparity I hope that my art’s are good for a few people (no matter that they like or dislike sparity)
