There were episodes such as “Canterlot Wedding” where the Mane Six, for example, stood up against thousands of Changelings and where Twilight were brave enough to face Tirek, although she got this magical boost from the other princesses to defeat him because he absorbed all energy and magic from everyone he came across to become that powerful himself.
 
If dragons were “stronger than ponies” or “can use magic,” she could’ve done the same thing again. Honestly, who would invade Equestria just to get your hands on more comfortable beds? And where did Garble’s hatred to ponies come from? Did one of them push him so he fell into a mud puddle and then laughed at him? Besides, any of the other remaining dragons throughout Dragonlands would’t ever agree with him on such thing about Equestria-invasion even if he did become the new dragonlord.
 
Spike got all credit for no reason in “The Crystal Empire” despite Twilight, from the beginning, were the one who figured out where the heart was, found the hidden passage to it, made it all the way up the stairs in light’s speed with her magic, Spike couldn’t since dragon’s can’t use magic… Twilight also risked herself failing the test that was given to her from one of Equestria’s rulers; Celestia by forcing Spike to bring the heart back when she got trapped. Shining Armor saved Spike and the heart when he clumsy fell during delivery.
 
Last but not least, it’s impossible and no point of having such character like Spike in the show if his origin was that he just were given to Twilight to be used as a test-object for her to get access to Celestia’s school. No evidence about where Spike came from were ever revealed. Lauren wouldn’t say that Spike’s parents “just died,” or his parents “just abandoned him,” or that he was “just left on someone’s doorstep…”

Those Pony Life stop-motion shorts probably have as much to do with Pony Life itself as Hello Pinkie Pie did with Friendship is Magic.

@Beau Skunky  
The “magical” 1930’s?

@northern haste  
Yeah, and the “big head” and “thick outline” style has been around sense the 1930s.

@Beau Skunky  
another thing worth mentioning the art style is not as common as people are making it out to be

@northern haste  
Yeah, and frankly it’s not like FIM was without it’s own goofiness, and self aware humor.

@Beau Skunky  
I think it’s because people just associate that art style was that style of writing.  
I know the good as hell video did not leave good signs but the video itself was just for the toys

@Macaroni C-Pony  
You win. :)
 
And going by the Pony Life stop-motion shorts, it doesn’t look like they’re going the TTG route like many assume.  
I don’t get why everybody assumes every “thick outline/big head” cartoon is like TTG. (And in fairness, I feel that show had a few good moments.)

@Background Pony #570A  
i still magically haven’t seen enough magic to judge magically. I say we all magically find within ourselves to magically be patient enough so throug enough magic we can magically determine whether the magic of Pony Life is magical enough to be magically good or magically end up another magical Teen Titans Go, minus the magic
 
Magically

wow, they sure do like using the word ‘magic’. four times in one sentence at one point. jesus christ!

I still haven’t seen enough to judge

@UserAccount  
That’s cool, as while I like MLP’s animation, and such, I’m tired of always seeing that same “thick outline/wiggling Flash puppet rig” animation style that’s been in almost every cartoon sense the turn of the century. Sometimes it can look good, but something it just looks off, and flat, or too unnatural. And with it almost always on-model, it looks very homaginized. I kinda miss more imperfect hand drawn styles, and I wish that could be emulated digitally somehow.
 
In regards to SP, even it’s intentionally bad/cheap animation has a certain appeal, as nothing else looks like it.

@northern haste  
South Park’s animation takes a lot of work to make it simulate shitty paper craft. It’s actually done in CG in order to make it look realistically lame. Hazbin Hotel is hand-drawn, not puppet animation Flash like MLP.

@MurtaughTheDragon  
Darn those thirteen or so spike episodes over nine seasons thats slightly more than one episode per season to derail the entire show.
 
And curse his “character development” doing so much harm when we can be honest here and say this show has barely any character development at all in general.
 
And above all that curse everyone who disagrees with the show going downhill because of X character and their development.
 
Wait forgot to put a name on that last one…whatever you get it. I’m sure most people just have the free time to talk about this and have decided to do so with the time they wished but if you want to forefeit your point  
You invested the most time of anyone in this thought you’d want a closing statement

@MurtaughTheDragon  

 
@MurtaughTheDragon  

 
Ok, honestly I’m starting to think you’re either a troll, or self-absorbed, no offense.
 
Can you even tell when you’re being so passive-aggressive? As I tried to tell you before, constantly insisting you’re “correct,” and calling others “delusional,” or whatever, and such is not going to prove your points, or enable others to take you seriously. It’s a childish way to “win” an argument. Basically, you’re just putting your fingers in your ears, and going, “Lalala! Not listening, because I’m correct.”

@MurtaughTheDragon  
I’m not sure about that last part pretty sure on the opposite of that but hey I got nothing better to do for these brief 30 second-1 minute periods. If you think thats a win congrats on winning I guess

@MurtaughTheDragon  
Well I am a bit confused as to why you’re not accepting the truth of the matter that most of this is headcanon with no actual functional way to prove or disprove. Aside from explaining that it exists in the nebulous space of headcanon.
 
But yes the writers used their ideas and some of the fans ideas/general thoughts likely got mixed into most characters.
 
Also comment 100 unless I get ninja’d
 
@northern haste  
Darn it

@UserAccount  
again south park uses computers to do sitty Papercraft and most web cartoons on not like actual shows. Vivziepop was trying to get has hazbin hotel done for years and they only released a pilot. also you can’t edit the plot and story of an episode not all fan service is animation details

@UserAccount
 
It wasn’t just a week. The Last Roundup premiered in January 21 and then was pulled from rotation and iTunes a few days later. The edited version was released at the end of February.
 
Also the visual edits weren’t much. It’s not like they reanimated Dash’s mouth or something. When she says “Now Careful, Derpy”. The last frames of animation are snipped out so it just cuts to Derpy.
