Re: My Little Pony

I liked this episode a lot too. It showed just how much the CMC have grown and why they had to give them their cutiemarks last season. There was just no more room for growth between them as friends or characters without it finally happening, and I hope this episode isn't the only one we have focused...

Don't forget the mid-season hiatus we had in season 5. It may not seem like a long time since the end of season 5, but if you compare it to the start of season 5, it probably looks more like the usual time between seasons I'm sure.

As far as I'm concerned, being in a fandom is made up of of whatever you want it to be made up of, regardless of what other people think.

It's not a requirement to be involved with the "dark side" of a fandom to actually be a member of it. Our definition of a furry is someone whose enjoyment of media is increased by the inclusion of anthro animals. If you enjoy looking at clean furry art because it has walking/talking animal...
