    Magic Duel was OK, could have been better.

    I don't know if Trixie had a voice actor change or what, but she just wasn't as good this time around. I think she could have stood to be more theatrical, maybe refer to herself in the third person a couple dozen more times.

    i liked it, but i never did see what was supposed to be so interesting about Trixie.

    i thought Just For Sidekicks was one of the best season 3 episodes, actually.  Spike At Your Service, i didn't like quite as much; Spike's exaggerated incompetence in that episode seemed odd to me, although he was perhaps attempting things he hadn't done before.

    i feel like i should probably finish the series, for completion's sake.

    Pretty sure there's going to be a forth season.

    Plus the thing were they're all humans and going to high school.

    i'm a completionist, not a masochist.  (That last part is in fact a lie, but still, no.)

    Equestria Girls is an animated television series starring the main cast of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic depicted in human-like appearances.

    I might be okay with that if it weren't for the fact that the character designs are atrocious

    Those are the faces of nightmares

    Wait, why do the pegasi (and alicorn) have wings in their human form, but the unicorn (and alicorn) don't have horns?

    Also notice they used a picture of Twilight as a unicorn below the human Twilight who clearly has wings.

    ...is Twilight wearing leg-warmers?

    i thought they were socks


    but then i saw that they appear to be going over her shoes


    so either she is wearing those baggy socks that are trendy in japan or


    she is wearing argyle legwarmers


    in which case the first episode will have Rarity having a psychotic breakdown

    The designs don't bug me too much. Though the faces do seem a tad off.

     

    Also, I agree with much of the tumblr crowd in that it's unnecessary to have all of them wearing skirts.

     

    Huh...wonder if Spike will even be in this one.

    Yes

    He will be twi's pet pony.

    Applejack wanted to wear her farm duds to a formal gathering at a royal palace, so I can't imagine she'd be the type to wear a skirt on a daily basis.

    Rainbow Dash probably isn't either...seems like she'd favor more athletic clothing.
  • More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
    But she is wearing bike shorts underneath, and I'm guessing that is supposed to be a denim jacket, which is maybe supposed to say "tomboy."
  • they just


    they look like bratz
  • More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
    That thought entered my mind as well. ^_^ But, the difference is that Bratz have 'attitude.' :p

  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    for some reason the human designs being forced into a mold bothers me more than it does with the ponies

    maybe it's all those humanizations I've seen that depict the ponies with varying skin colors, body sizes, races...
  • More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
    They are a-racial, buuuuuuut, their fashion sense is rather uniform.

    Aye.  There's no obvious reason why the humanoid ones would all dress the same way.  The ponies' appearances reflect their personalities more closely.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    the humanized ponies have varying clothing too...

    I kinda like that they made them aracial. It leaves them open to interpret them however you'd like, whereas giving them "canon" races would have just given more fuel to the racist idiots who are all "OMG TWILIGHT SPARKLE CAN'T BE BLACK."
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Well, that's a point in their favor...and keeping their skin colors the same as their coats helps keep the brand consistent!
  • edited 2013-03-14 16:38:25

    Keeping the brand consistent was probably the thinking with the costume design, too.

    i mean, they evidently made some attempt to reflect their individual personalities, but marketability presumably came first.

    Gosh those designs are bad. Very cookie cutter. Everyone wears a short skirt. Everyone wears knee-high footwear, producing such fashion crimes as Rainbow's tennis boots and Twilight's "argyle legwarmers." And then half of them are angels.

    For once, or maybe twice, I was in my prime.
    My plan is to think about Equestria Girls as little as possible until the movie airs, then give it a chance to impress me.

    Keep Calm and Flutter On was pretty good.

     

    Discord wanting friends was not something I'd expect, but it IS a kids show after-all, and it's probably good to show that the villains can occasionally be reformed as their are several time where the villains leave in a huff at the end of the episodes and we don't want to teach kids EVERYPONY who is mean, prideful, selfish, etc... needs to be outdone, pranked, our ostracized until they go away. 

     

    Discord was written petty well still, the whole episode was really.

     

    I think there have been more misses than hits this season for me, but I hope there's at least a few more the quality of these last couple.

     

    Friday also saw a bit of the episode and commented it was "not terrible" or some such.

    I somehow missed "Just for Sidekicks", it was pretty good. 


  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...i don't get why people here like that episode so much

    I found it pretty dull

    Of course the other side of the story was far from stellar itself, but still

    Of the two halves of that story, I found "Just for Sidekicks" to be more entertaining than "Games Ponies Play".

    In part because the latter had everypony acting like idiots. Nopony thought to ask the mare her name?
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I didn't like either very much

    And the decision to award the Equestria Games to the Crystal Empire was a deus-ex-machina even by this show's standards
  • Not a hybrid rabbit-skink spirit
    You know, the show may have been going down in quality


    But Daniel Ingram is still pretty fuckin' awesome

    All the songs from "Magical Mystery Cure" were awesome.

    It felt like a Disney-esque musical, almost.
  • For once, or maybe twice, I was in my prime.
    I liked "Just for Sidekicks" for showing that Big Macintosh and Cheerilee are still hanging out, that Screw Loose is being successfully rehabilitated, and that Carrot Top and Written Script are indeed very close. And most importantly, Zecora wants dragon booty.

    Actually, if I had to pick a "worst song" (Ignoring Cutie Mark Crusaders, as that's intentional), it would probably be Babs Seed.


    And even then, I still think it's pretty good
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    Heck, "Babs Seed" is still better than the rest of the episode it went with, so it has that going for it at least.

    Even if it does have an oddly '90s sound to it.
  • For once, or maybe twice, I was in my prime.
    My ability to appreciate songs from cartoons and musicals took a big hit in my teen years and never quite recovered. But even I like "True, True Friend".

    Well, if you want to be all official about it, I believe its proper name is Tomodachi wa Mahou.

    Why do the Japanese always need such absurdly long show themes and endings?
