    But she's the Great and Powerful Trixie! I want to see more of her in the future.

    When she's not fronting, I actually rather enjoyed trixie. I can definitely understand the hate, as i originally did hate her too. I went back and rewatched the episode actively looking for what was making everyone else fanatical about her, and shockingly actually found something. If you look at her more as a desperately broken ego traveling and putting on shows in small towns to scrape a living, then her ego becomes less of a huge annoyance and more of a sad attempt to make herself feel better that should be pitied rather than hated. I just kinda feel bad for her now.

    I hope she shows back up in some sort of redemption fashion. Maybe finally tired of having been run out of towns or being disliked, haunted by the shame of "The Ponyville Event" she comes back with a lot more humility? Until Cranky showed up, I'd say she served as the only pony in equestria not living an idyllic life. That, at the very least, makes her a unique character if not a likeable one.

    I don't hate her, and would like to see her show up again at least once, but she isn't in my top 15 ponies. She is above snails and snap though.

    Yeah, that's Twist. Snails' partner in crime is Snips.

    Yeah, she's a bitch.
    So if she wants to be the new Rarity... and she's a bitch... does that mean Rarity is a...

    Anyway, this is now a discussion of Pinkie Pie. Pinkie Pie used to annoy me and seems so one dimensional, but now I absolutely love her. She reminds me of people I've known and envied. I'm a realistic person and with every dose of reality comes a dose of cynicism it seems. I wish I could be like Pinkie Pie and look on the bright side most of the time. I wish I could be everyone's friend and not worry about issues that impede good relations.

    Pinkie Pie is easily in my top three.

    Pinkie Pie is the god queen of equestria. Pinkie Pie is a being of vast and incalculable knowledge and power that simply does not give a smurf. Everytime Pinkie shatters the laws of nature via some cosmic 12th dimension wormhole, I have been known to look at my wife, smile and simply state "next level."

    Seriously though, I think Pinkie knows more about whats going on in equestria than anyone, Princesses included. She's obviously a savant (Memorizing the habits, likes/dislikes and birthdays of seemingly all ponyville residents), has been proven to be at least somewhat psychic, and has displayed knowledge of her world that went beyond that of Celestia herself (see Parasprites that Celestia thought were cute, and Pinkie not only recognized but stopped.). She has found loopholes for physics without the use of unicorn magic and is able to see past her own world to recognize that our world is watching her. Hell, in the last episode she seemed to display a proficiency for not only breaching the fourth wall but bringing elements of our universe back with her (see... Uh, felt.)

    Clearly Pinkie Pie is an unstoppable monstrosity of joy and mirth, and only holds down a semi normal life because it amuses her. I love Pinkie so much...

    Pinkie Pie is absolutely wonderful, and I love her. Now that I think about it, I am quite a lot like her, except for several things. And her newest song, "Smile Smile Smile" is great.

    Remember, smile!

    You made some very good points and I think you have the argument mostly won as far as I'm concerned. However, you did leave out the most damning episode... Sweet and Elite. Easily the most horrible expression of Rarities self-centeredness.

    That said, I think it was the bile that this particular episode induced that really pushed me over the edge to really disliking Rarity. I liked her much more in S1 and Art of the Dress is her most generous episode ever. I will grant that there are more generous episodes than not, but you can't overlook how terrible she was in Sweet and Elite. I don't know if you can make that about generosity or not, but it certainly speaks to her character.
    And mind you, this situation put an insane amount of pressure on Rarity. She was in position to make a big leap forward in fulfilling her dream. In regards to fashion desing, high end design requires getting your name out there. If no one knows who you are, it is difficult to obtain high end clients, so as Shallow as getting into the in crowd may seem, if a talented Fashion designer gets into it, they are pretty much set. So this was very much an episode where it took putting Rarity's biggest dream on the line. And again, this is the only time I saw Rarity waver on the Generosity front.
    I did have to look up which episode that was first, but yes, I did in fact speak on it.

    I find it hard to fault someone in that situation doing what she did myself. Though if it helps, it's not the only time she did something like this. The first time I find far worse to be honest. Back during the episode with Fluttershy and the Dragon, they were all sent there to get the dragon to move, and Rarity's desire for the gems in the cave surpassed saving Ponyville, as had she just went in and did what she did, minus knicking the treasures, she would have saved Equestria without need of Fluttershy. And yet there was no real consequences to her doing that, which did bother me a little.

    And commenting on the Wings thing, the problem was more to do with Rarity's habbit of being a little short sighted, and not even realizing that Rainbow Dash was so stressed over this, and not so much her putting her own desires over that of Rainbow Dash.

    And yes, Trixie is a bitch, and wonderful for it.

    Pinkie is great. She reminds me of old Looney Tunes characters or something with all her fourth-wall breaking.

    Pinkie Pie is one of the best ponies of all time and is up there with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Sorry for the short message, I am posting from a vita
