Overall, a huge surprise and if given a chance without prejudice well worth watching.Discord's portraits of Twilight in his "Bob Ross" cutaways were drawn by storyboard artist Aynsley King. I also liked the animation, the colours are bright and breezy, the backgrounds are ethereal-looking and the character designs are adorable, and the music is lovely complete with an infectious theme tune. The story lines are also simple but well paced and quite clever, and the writing is cute, funny and poignant. All the characters are genuinely cute and engaging without leaving a bad taste in the mouth, and they are simple yet interact so well with each other and they also have unique personalities. Other than the lessons and the humour, the characters and the way they interact are what make the show work. Not all of it is funny though, the show manages to convey some poignancy as well without being too schmaltzy. I agree that My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic is very winning in its humour, there are many times where I was amused by the situations and writing. This is a very educational show I feel which I think parents will appreciate, and the life and moral lessons are important ones and aren't delivered in an overly-didactic and convoluted fashion. Several reasons make this show appeal to me. Sure that may be the main target audience, but there may be adults who might admire how much My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic accomplishes. When I first heard of My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic, I was a little worried of who it would appeal to, thinking of the conception that it was for little girls and pre-schoolers and little else, but I was wrong. I watched this show, not expecting much at all, and was really surprised at how much I loved it. I am not afraid to admit as an 18 year old female that I have a soft spot for My Little Pony, as I do with all my childhood favourites.
