10 Years of MLP:FiM · 6:03pm Oct 10th, 2020
Here we are. 10 years since the show aired its first episode, and since then has assembled a community of fans with a dedicated love for the show, including myself. I've only been apart of the fandom for three of those years, but I'm glad that I joined late rather than never because, just as it has with many others, the show changed my life.
I discovered the show in a somewhat unconventional way after coming across Cupcakes. I was fascinated by it, and slowly but surely, that led to me giving the show itself a try. I was hooked, and I found myself watching another episode, and another, until before I knew it, I had binged through all the seasons that had aired at the time and was eagerly waiting for the next one to come out.
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has definitely had its ups and downs, and the fandom has shrunken considerably since its earlier years, but even so, the fandom is still going strong, and its safe to say that's not going to change anytime soon.
Happy 10th anniversary, FiM!
