interactions with fandoms is to be solely restricted to those rare healthy spaces with good people i find. for example. MA3 is an example of that in the comic discussion pages

Post by **Tenjen** » Sun Oct 11, 2015 2:45 pm

we've been watching the CMC for so long its like watching a child grow up.

which it actually is come to think of it.

The episode made me cry. Then again, a lot of things make me cry both in happiness and sadness.

Welp...that just happened.

So...a CMC episode...that was also a musical...which set up Diamond Tiara for redemption...and had the CMC actually get their CMs...

And this just a mid season episode!

Artemisia, I also cried with this episode. It's not the first time the show has made me do that either. Twilight's coronation and the Rainbooms battling the Dazzlings (especially when Sunset joins the fray) always get me there no matter what. One of the many things I like about the show is how it, somehow, can move me to feel the same joy (and occasionally sorrow) that the characters feel.

I've been thinking about this episode a lot since Saturday, and I find I keep coming to the same line of thought. The shows I grew up with might occasionally mention something that happened in an earlier episode, but MLP: FIM is doing so much more. It's growing. In the early seasons, one of the reasons I would give for liking the show was how well developed the characters are. That's more true with this episode, this season, then ever. Because the characters have changed, defied the status quo, and grown up. The CMCs are maturing wonderfully, and this episode isn't even the first time they've displayed their collective ability to help others understand themselves. Not only that, but Rainbow Dash's dream of becoming a Wonderbolt is becoming a reality, where in other shows she might get close for an episode only to end up back at square one. Rarity has turned her passion into a business that is not just succeeding, but growing. Twilight was the student but is now the teacher, and her old teacher is now her peer. One of the writers said at a con recently that the show was to end with season three, but of course it didn't. And by lasting this long the show is now in a place where it can teach young children that their dreams are attainable with time, patience, and perseverance.

I don't know if I'm articulating it in quite the way that it appears in my brain, but that's the best I can do.

I remember Lauren Faust commenting a few times when the show started that the powers that be wanted there to be 'negative continuity' so that they could show the episodes in whatever order they wanted after the first run, which would have mandated no real character development. At first they had to sneak it into the show, but now it seems that they are being given full range to proceed.

Post by **Artemisia** » Tue Oct 13, 2015 12:38 pm

This show definitely needs a continuity for it to work. Some shows are like that, and I'm glad that they're getting that. Negative continuities only really work when you're not telling a story and being very silly, and even then, you can get some character development.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who cried over the CMC getting their Cutie Marks

And it really is time for Hasbro to realize that they don't have to hide some of the obvious character growth and that the world has changed a lot even since the series started.

And the CMC needed to succeed eventually. To have them perpetually failing would lead to some kids wondering if they should bother chasing their own dreams...
