KYM Pony General III: This time, it's personal

@Algernon: I didn't want to quote the entire thing, cause it's huge, but honestly, that's why I don't do this headcanon thing until the shows I like are all done, cause at times, it can get completely screwed up.

That and I don't write or draw anyways, so it doesn't bother me as much as it does some other people.

Also

No Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, or Rainbow Dash?! Seriously?!
I’m not complaining, it was a great episode anyway. It’s just surprising that we only got to see a third of the mane 6 for an entire episode.

It's happened before, in Look Before You Sleep, it was just Applejack, Rarity and Twilight and that was it, though I'm guessing that's half since there's 6 of them.

I'm also confused at Rarity's parents. They just handwaved that entire sequence.

When they left, I was like Ezio at the ending of Assassin's Creed 2

"Wait! don't go! I have so many questions!"

Also, please read that in an Italian accent.

Oh don't worry, I did… but…

Here you go!

@Gregory Horse:

I don't think that works. Derpy was in the best young flier's competition. She's simply not old enough to have a daughter as old as…whoever that was Dinky's sister.

And for now, that's my new head canon. Simple and reasonable

I reject your headcanon and substitute my own. There is no Seabreeze in my headcanon. I don't care about Carrot being sisters with EYES THAT STARE INTO YOUR SOUL filly.

Those eyes…

(Your pic of Seabreeze is wrong, the runner in the show had the dolphin yin-yang cutie mark, not diamonds.)

A lot of those fillies have those kinda eyes. Scootaloo had them while Sweetie Belle was singing in the Stare Master episode.

Personally, I think the fillies are pretty adorable, especially with their big eyes.

Why does it look like it takes place in the 21st Century?

I would spoil the story but Assassin's creed takes place in both the 21st century and the Crusades/Renaissance Italy

My first though was the end of this video:

Okay, now that we've gotten past this episode, it's time for the Cutie Pox one next week, that's the one that I'm most interested in, mainly since it might show what cutie mark Apple Bloom might get and if it's an actual disease for ponies

Ideological the Vinyl Scratch wrote:

Impossible!

It looked like he was wearing a sombrero and the fact he got the typical hispanic mustach. I do sound racist about this but my sister agrees with me and alot others too. xD

Yes i have been wanting to know what applebloom's cutie mark would be for a long time hope we will see

Eyup, though I have a feeling that once that episode is done, she'll lose it along with all the other cutie marks she gets.

Well… that was awesome.

I thought it was an OK episode but not bad by any stretch of the imagination. I like character development. Especially, when they are accurate. The ending argument about levels of dirty shows that even if you've learned a lesson, it doesn't mean that you're automatically perfect at it.


Or do they live somewhere else and Sweetie Belle just visits from time to time?

I'm surprised no one else is talking about that, but maybe it's just obvious to most people. I had to watch that sequence again, but what I quoted from you is what I think is the truth. Sweetie just packed her "necessities." If she lived with Rarity, no packing would have been necessary. Sweetie Belle lives with her parents, but they don't live so far away that Sweetie Belle goes to a different school from Apple Bloom or Scootaloo.

Whoo, I'm typing a lot today. Making up for the past few days, I guess.


When Rarity saw Sweetie Belle’s drawing…

I don't want to talk about that right now…


Honestly, I didn’t see the ending coming.

Me neither. Some users in the chat said they did. I didn't. I wasn't paying attention to the eye color, but then again…Twilight probably has a spell for that, and I'm sure Rarity could pull it off if need be. I mean it worked for Nyx so why not use


Applejack is now 2nd best pony (behind Twilight of course). She was really good in this episode. I’d still like to see one more focused on her though.

Same here. But Applejack has worked her way into the Twilight/Pinkie-tier for me. Just under Twilight, and probably tied with Pinkie. Like CitationNeeded said (I think it was Citation,) this is probably the first of a lot of episodes that Twilight doesn't appear at all. As such, it creates some room to see more of the other mane six. Twilight may finally be usurped if Pinkie or AJ get more episodes.


I was thinking "I really like her mane" at some point during the stream, but I can't tell if that was due to the episode or due to the commercials…

Yeah, I'm guessing that Sweetie Belle and Rarity's parents just live in town somewhere since like Verbose mentioned, Sweetie goes to the same school that Apple Bloom and Scootaloo does.

Alright, time to head off, see you all later!

Makes sense. Granny Smith lives in Ponyville. Well, she lives at the farm with AJ but meh.

Just finished watching Sisterhooves Social, by the way. It was a pretty good episode, not as good as Lesson Zero (the best one IMO), but still good nonetheless. Sweetie Belle is still cutest filly.

Remind me that if I predict any backlash coming from an episode, to nerf it five or six notches. As it turns out, we're pretty adaptable.

Anyhow, I now lurk.

Adaptable to what?

Changes to fanon/headcanon/what-have-you perpetrated by show canon.

There'll always be RAEGers, but for the most part we stay quiet about these issues.

He's just dressed like that because he's going on vacation. I don't really care what his name is. So long as taxi pony is named Bob.

He is Fargo! You hear, that Hasbro?? Fargo!!

@Sparty: I agree. Heck, I might even start to accept the background pony canon names. Not now, but soon.

Lyra Heartstrings.

Admit it, that actually does sound like a good name for her.

@badsitrep: Indeed she did.

Highlight this > It ends up being a dream. None of it actually happens.

Agreement does not mean it's not racist. The fact that it's based on race means it's racist. The fact that it's not explicitly and antagonistically racist means that it isn't "racist" in the sense of prejudice. But it's still a rather weak argument.

I'd say that his accent probably means he's not from any Spanish-speaking area. Sounds US midwestern. I guess that's what the Fargo references are getting at. His hat doesn't look like a sombrero. It looks like a straw hat you'd put on a scarecrow. I'd say the mustache along with his clothes, his odd taste in food, and his demeanor just means he's eccentric.

Wait……
If Rarity's mom is Jewish, by Talmudic Succession Law the religion of the child is always passed through the mother…….
That means……..

Rarity and Sweetie Belle are Jewish.
L'chaim.
That would also explain why she whines so much.

They are all members of the national church of Celestiaism.

I doubt that could work for Studio B.

I hope that doesn't happen, it'd be such a cop out that we've seen before in a lot of shows.

Also, does that taxi pony have a taxi cutie mark, it sure looks like it.

@badsitrep: …I'm not sure if want or not. I mean, do ponies even have religions aside from Celestia and Luna?

From what I know of some Jewish friends, Jewish people also have their own culture. Moreso than Christianity. Just some things are valued more than others, and there's probably a different way of approaching things. It certainly won't appear as a religion in show, but it might make up the basis for how Rarity and Sweetie Belle act.

But I'm not Jewish. badsitrep should explain more. Probably somewhere above me by the time I finish typing this.
