favorite pony?

[darthpony]

Hey, Everypony. I was just wondering who was your favorite pony (does not have to be a member of the mane six or one of the cutie mark crusaders). I would have to say that my favorite is pinkie pie because I can relate to her best and she is extremely funny. Then I would have to say that my favorite that is not a member of the mane six is possibly princess Luna or one of the cutie mark crusaders. (I do not intend to start any arguments about favorite ponies. )

Well, Pinkie Pie is tied for Best Pony on my list with Rarity. Pinkie didn't start out as my favorite, that was Twilight Sparkle, just as I was starting to watch the show, but as the show continued, I got a better understanding of who Pinkie really was. The entire reason Pinkie is the way she is is that she wants to make everypony around her happy, and I love that selfless act. I think Rarity might fall into that line of thinking as well, though we haven't seen much of her in this past season. Rarity also has a real depth of character that I eat up. Tabitha St. Germain's Rarity is just too great...such range and inflection really brings her alive.

I agree that rarity has a verrrrry dramatic voice actor. She is always saying things in an expressive way. One thing I like about rarity is that her personality is uniquely complex, making her more difficult to understand or comprehend than a lot of other ponies. I mean, Twilight, she is a control freak sort of and she wants order. Rainbow Dash wants to be independent and awesome. Fluttershy wants lots of animals and peace and queit (and something else that I can't put my hoof around), pinkie pie wants to make those around her happy for various reasons. Rarity is kind of more complex than that. It is almost as if the things she wants are mutually exclusive, which forces her to make lots of choices about who she is and what she really wants. I mean, I wouldn't say she is my favorite, but I love and appreciate her character the same way that I love and appreciate all the characters, but differently (if you understand what I am saying). But yeah, she is a lot more than some prissy pants, despite popular belief.

Mine would be Princess Luna for sure. I'm not exactly sure why, considering her lack of screentime, but there you are. Then again, I've always liked moon-related things, and galavanting about by moonlight.
Next up would be Applejack, though it's a close call between her or RD. The main reason I started to like AJ is the YaC song "Howdy Partner"

[mezzo forte]

Rarity and here's why -

1. up until Suited for Success we saw little personality in Rarity and that episode really put her in the spotlight as to what she does 
as far as the element of generosity also it showed how easily generosity can be taken advantage of among other elements such as
leaving the knowledge of something to the professionals ( PP = i don't know what i want, RD = I'll know it when i see it, TS = Micromanagement (obsessing over details),
AJ = Don't care as long as i can work in it, FS = I think i know more than you do so i'm qualified to talk on your level about the subject (we all know people like this))

Just have to love the lyrics from Art of the Dress - All we ever want is indecision, all we really like is what we know, gotta balance style with adherence, making sure we make a good appearance......even if you simply have to fudge it make sure that it stays within our budget! (this is the life of the artistic types and their customers)

2. Ever notice Rarity has to put up with a lot of big problems and things that would just make someone break down and say " i don't know what to do..."? 
- In Green isn't your colour, her dreams are shattered right in front of her by Fluttershy  - Season 1 episode 20
- Kidnapped in A Dog and Pony Show (though she handled that situation rather impeccably) - Season 1 episode 19
- Having her fabric and basically her line of clothes stolen in Rarity Takes Manehatten - Season 4 episode 8
- having to spend the evening with the worst date ever in The Best Night Ever (still laughing at that cake part...) - Season 1 episode 26
- trying hard to impress everyone and be there for everyone in Sweet and Elite (it's not easy having a job in ponyville where nobody really appreciates your art form like they would in canterlot....even more impressive that she's running her business there) - Season 2 episode 9
- Kidnapped again in Secret of My Excess - Season 2 episode 10
- Making a tough decision as leader of the Ponytones to have Big Mac lip-sync - Season 4 episode 14
- having her feelings crushed in Inspiration Manifestation not to mention that other major plot point.......kidnapped again this time by magic..... - Season 4 episode 23
- having her crush ignore her for AJ in Simple Ways ouch! - Season 4 episode 13

3. Has the best singing voice out of all in my opinion...Kazumi Evans is really really good!

4. Sure her mannerisms are over the top but it's so over the top that it's laughable unlike some of Twilights dialogue which comes off more as stubborn, selfish, and just a complaining ear sore

5. Knows Karate! xD
