But that’s all subjective. What you see in Rarity may be different than what I or Ghostie sees in Rarity; i.e., a generous and well-written character, who happens to go a bit over sometimes, but not in a way that makes her unrelatable or bad.

Yes the tomboy trope has been used a lot, but Dash is one of the best written tomboys I’ve come across.
 
The tough, sometimes egotistical front she uses to hide her insecurities is very well done and believable. She feels like she could be a real person. There are people like her.
 
Rarity on the other hand, to me seems a lot less believable and relatable. Most people with that rather prissy personality tend to only care for themselves or how other people view them.

Well obviously.  
You can’t improve perfection! Waha-ha!
 
No, but seriously, this discussin is so subjective, it really doesn’t make much sense to go on. You will not change each other’s minds anyway.

That’s fine and all and I completely agree about Fluttershy, but I just want to clarify that I meant seen in other characters in other shows as opposed to just MLP’s universe.
 
Dash’s role as the sporty girl who acts tougher than she is isn’t really unique in media. It’s one of the things I appreciate so much about Rarity - most characters like her actually are like that BP is trying to say she is like, but she’s a wonderful subversion on that trope by being both into fashion and high society while still being true to her friends and kindhearted while even managing her own business.

Rainbow’s development has been VERY different. If you wanna talk about the same “development” over and over, I think you mean Fluttershy.
 
I like characters that change in positive ways throughout the course of a series and Rarity doesn’t fit that bill in my eyes.

Well, you can give a character as much development as you want, but it doesn’t automatically make them a better or even a good character unless the development isn’t interesting or good.
 
Give me a less developed character who has had unique and interesting character growth throughout the series versus a character who has had same ’ol same ‘ol development that’s been seen countless times before.

Dash caused trouble in Sonic Rainboom and Wonderbolts Academy? Nah.  
Sonic Rainboom was because of Rarity being a show off and Wonderbolts Academy was because of Lightning Dust being reckless. Dash was not to blame on either occassion soooo what episode are you talking about?

@ghostfacekiller39  
Well Rarity’s also a vapid and shallow bitch, has been since the very first season and hasn’t improved on that at all in 5 seasons. So I’d say RD is a better character than her.

I feel as if I’ve seen a BP leave this comment word for word before, but idk. I also think that the notion that one character saving another automatically makes them the better character is absolutely absurd because it fails to take into account soooooo much.
Background Pony #96DD
Rarity would be dead on multiple occasions if it weren’t for Dash, and people still think Rarity is better? Are we watching the same show?
Background Pony #D79D
I’m pretty sure you’re objectively faster, Rainbow. But that’s about it.

I don’t think so; I suppose a mod could check to make sure.
 
Seriously, though, somehow I just looked over your comment without reading it; sorry.
