Oh no.. am I a Brony?

Sorry Soleron I asked for examples of character development that weren't painfully simple examples of things in children's shows to teach kids a lesson and you gave me perfect examples of that type of 'character development'

Please do the same thing for any anime you like. When you put it in words, it will be about as simple as I said.

You seemingly completely ignored the level of animation... guess that one is gone.

I said the level of animation serves the show perfectly. Much like, say, Super Mario Galaxy's graphics are not state of the art but are better designed for that game than anything else.

However yea the animation isn't anywhere near as good as other series. However according to you it's better than Ghost in the shell 2nd gig..... right

I already said it wasn't the best technical animation, stop putting words in my mouth.

You gave a parody/cover of California girls as an example of good music.... case closed on that one.

No, I gave THAT as an example of songs not for children. The links I gave are the show's music that I actually like.

You also seem to think that the lyrics don't count because even though they are in the song the composer didn't want them.... but they are in the song. Using the logic of something would be good if it was different isn't good logic.

MUSIC is instruments. Who listens to music for the lyrics lol? I only listen to the instrumental versions and BGM. The composer is on record as hating the lyrics he has been sent and the production directions he is forced into.

You have also completely flipped your argument on the fanart. You said the fanart makes the show good, I said that it is a separate entity and you have now changed it to the fanart is an example of people liking the show because it's good....... so you changed the direction of the relationship between the two things. I maintain fanart doesn't make a show inherently better.

I haven't changed my position. The fanart doesn't improve the show, right, but it does explain why "we" are into the show so much. Without the fanart I would not be watching every week.

Go on then show some quotes about adults being the main target demographic before the brony thing. Since my completely valid quotes (only one of which was from wiki by the by) apparently don't count because...... yea.

"When I took the job, I braced myself for criticism, expecting many people–without even watching the show–to instantly label it girly, stupid, cheap, for babies or an evil corporate commercial. I encourage skeptics like this to watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic with an open mind. " - Lauren Faust, December 2010

You're twisting my words again. Of course adults are not the main target audience, and of course a goal of the show is to sell toys, but from the start she was just trying to make a good show and see what resulted from that - not a normal girls cartoon the likes of which she hates.

Oh and look your example of 'deep' comedy..... a pretend interrogation, she says talk and the character talks about unrelated things HAHA that is deep! Oh look the pinky pony feels lonely and pretends inanimate objects are her friends but good grief it's handled with such subtly I can't tell is this a kids show or The Beaver.... gah so hard to tell! Yea sorry but if that is 'deep' comedy then we would have to class EVERY comedy as 'deep' comedy.

You watched it. Wow. Why invest your time in something you hate so much?

It is only deep if you have seen the portayal of her character from the first episode on. If I showed you a random clip of Toy Story towards the end would it make sense or be funny? And for sure it's not /that/ deep, not like a really good British drama. But it succeds more than the three shows you gave as examples of "deep" comedy yourself. Let me dig through their transcripts and find some incredibly shallow/slapstick humour. I bet I find more in 1 random episode than was in the episode "Sonic Rainboom".

Oh look changing your argument again. You said the mainstream views all gamers as basement dwelling, socially awkward teenagers. I said yes there are examples of that but also completely normal examples too. Your response is to ignore the fact your claim was completely wrong and instead rally against the big bang theory. Gamers in media are portrayed as a wide variety of things.

OK, agreed. But I was comparing the WORST portrayal of gamers to YOUR implications about bronies. Why do you feel so strongly about this?

Do you not even understand what I am trying to say? I don't care whether you PERSONALLY like it or not. But surely you can see why others enjoy it, from what I have said, and respect that those people aren't weird or somehow doing the wrong thing?
