Description

In NeoGAF’s MLP community thread, we decided to vote on episodes for a recommended episode guide, based on those created for Star Wars: Clone Wars and other shows. After tallying up votes, we then modified the results to get better character coverage, to get at least one episode for each of the Mane Six each season (besides 1 and 3). This resulted in a total of 63 episodes that were recommended, or 7/13 of the series. While things have slowed down in terms of new people joining the fandom, this will hopefully be useful for anyone that’s starting out but is overwhelmed by the number of episodes. The full album is linked below.

I didn’t like #11 at all and I think discord means nothing to the show as well. unfortunately, the episode demonstrated twilight’s magical prowess and is thus important
 
it also shows the thing that fluttershy does: mental manipulation! :P

Why is episode 11 important? Discord sub-plot is absolutely meaningless, hay, even CMC are more important than this! This status should be moved to the movie, Equestria Girls was far more important than that and introduced character with far larger importance and impact than Discord ever had. Also, I am puzzled why people say Sleepless or Wonderbolts episodes are in any way important, they were one offs never mentioned later that influenced about zero, sooo… Both could be removed and absolutely nothing would change.

“Wonderbolts Academy” flubbed the plot development, making Spitfire at least as culpable as Lightning Dust; I can understand people liking it more than “Magic Duel” anyway, but personally I think the above list is correct.

that’s true but if this weird “list” was only about popular “fan favorites,” then I’d say Wonderbolts Academy outta be purple, too. I think it is more about episodes showing off awesome magical (friendship) prowess

Comics and EG are partial-canon until specifically stated not to be or implied not to be by the the primary medium.(the show) The cartoon will always come first, and if the cartoon says or implies something, that comes first and debunks events from the comic or EG.
 
Word of god from the producers and writers. Things are not canon just because you don’t like them.

A lot of people will find that statement debatable,i think it’s more fair to label EQG as skipable.It’s a part of the show in the sense that it was made at the same time as MLP but the staff did so much damage control and contradictory statement with that (that “it’s canon except maybe not cuz the show dont acknowledge it) that it’s better to forget about it.In other words,the fate of your average lazy Monster High rip off

Oh wow, a neutral, non-confrontational writeup for My Little Pony: Equestria Girls? Thank you!
