I will now GIVE A LIST OF MY FAVORITE PONIES!
7. AppleJack - Don't get me wrong, I like AppleJack. She's a fun character who gets the occasional southernish wit line in for many chuckles, but in the end she seems the plainest character to me. She never really grows as a character, and I was never really fond of the country bumpkin type characters. Any time an episode centered around her, it's always the other characters that shine more then she does.
6. Pinkie Pie - Pinky Pie is hilarious. Her jokes are always well timed, and it's rare she isn't funny. She's this low compared to others in that I don't think I have ever felt like her character has had any kind of growth, and not a whole lot of depth. In the end with Pinkie, the reactions that happen around her tend to amuse me more then Pinkie herself. But again, it doesn't change she is very funny, and is responsible for some of the shows best songs. On the other hand there was the whole Pinkie Sense episode, which bothered me greatly.
5. Rainbow Dash - Rainbow dash is pretty awesome. Energetic and fast paced both in personality and action. Rainbow dash comes with just the right amount of self awareness of her own ego, and her bragging never seems to go overbored into unlistenable terriotories, allowing her to remain a likable main character. Plus the Sonic Rain Boom is freaking awesome.
4. Twilight Sparkle - Twilight is a great mix of smart, unaware, and psychotic. She is able to focus in on the most important of things and handle them with finess, yet a small detail most of us would have no issues with will make her snap. When it comes to something she is unprepared for, she has a hard time adjusting to it, all while remaining a great and reliable person to have by your side, and hilariously awesome psychotic fits.
3. Big Macintosh - I smurfing love Big Mac. For a character who says so little, and gets so little screen time, he's got a lot of personality. He's strong, confident, hard working, and laid back. Not a whole lot seems like it would bother Big Mac, yet when it does it really gets to him. (For example AppleJack not coming back.) He's also up for having fun with people, like at the end of the Valentines Day episode when him and Cherilee are teasing the CMC. And who can forget his love of odd stuffed animals. Big Mac, giving attention to the unwanted. Bless his massive heart. (Oh, and there was the whole bit of whim bowling through a pile of women and children to keep a hold of the doll. XD)
2. Fluttershy - Flutter shy is adorable. So sweet and caring, though on rare occasions she lets a mean streak out. Honestly, Twilight is the better character by comparison, but the shear level of 'dawwww' is overwhelming.
1. Rarity - Rarity is number one because she's smurfing Rarity. She consistantly has some of the best lines in the series, as a character she seamlessly blends together the high style, over dramatic, and generous aspects of her personality. She's clever and can adapt to situations she has never been in before, (see the Diamond Dogs episode) though at the same time if the need doesn't seem as desperate she is quite a bit resilient to try it. (The Slumber party episode for example, all that was really on the line was property damage, though I do think she was a bit excessively resistant when she started picking up random trout as a storm raged through the place.) Rarity adds flair to even the most mundane of tasks (See the Apple Cider episode), and you'd be hard pressed to see anypony who would go as far out of the way as she does to keep her friends happy, even to her own detriment. (See 'The Art of the Dress') So smurf all yall haters.![]()
