So yesterday I finished up the 9th season of MLP and my goodness was it perfect! Just the way everything was tied up neatly at the end and all the emotion surrounding it was really hitting me different. Now here I am feeling empty and a little depressed.
In all honesty I'm very shocked just how much this cartoon affected me. The characters, the themes, the music, all elements totally unique and never before seen from any other show I watched. As cheesey as it sounds this show really has inspired me to try to become a better person. I've even put some thought into writing my own stories on here, something I would've never thought about doing if it were any other show.
Of course I still have spinoffs to watch like the Equestria girl movies, Pony life, shorts, etc, if I decide to watch them. But just knowing there aren't anymore episodes to watch saddens me.
I'm very glad I decided to say "Fuck it" and give this show a watch. It's honestly one of the best shows I've seen. Not only that but this community as well, every person I've had the pleasure to meet on here has been very welcoming and kind. It really puts a smile on my face to know there's people like that out there. All of the fan art, music, fanfiction, etc, has been a real treat to discover. My only regret is not joining earlier, I unfortunately joined after everything was said and done with and I wish I could've been there at the peak of the community.
With that being said I just wanted to give a big Thank you to Lauren Faust, The voice Actors, the crew, and everybody involved for making such a great show. This show was a rollercoaster from the beginning to the very end. I'm happy to be in this community!
