Points of Canon: S8x15 - The Hearth’s Warming Club · 7:33pm Aug 4th, 2018

Oh boy… Oh, and I won’t mark this with a spoiler tag because I’m confused just when the hell is it supposed to air in the US, and I can’t be bothered anymore.

Points of Canon: Equestria Girls Holiday Special · 9:36pm Nov 13th, 2018

The comic issue. This one has issues.

Because it’s the infamous Anon-a-miss issue, of course.

You know, the one that launched a thousand fix-fics. Literally, I’ve been counting: 1032 of the 169075 stories in the last Fimfarchive dump, a whopping 0.61%, if my search code doesn’t lie! Considering that most of the authors of those stories probably didn’t even see the comic, that’s a bloody lot. I suppose I can’t exactly ignore it now that I know that.

Points of Canon: S9x09 - Sweet and Smoky · 4:00pm May 25th, 2019

The leaks continue: It appears that the Italian channel Cartoonio which airs the Italian dub also has a streaming service, on which the episodes go live immediately after airing – and in addition to the Italian dub, it also allows access to the original English to certain subscribers. So in fact, episodes up to 13 included are already available.

Points of Canon: S6x06 - No Second Prances · 6:26pm Apr 30th, 2016

We return today with our regular dose of canon combing, investigating notable worldbuilding statements in “No Second Prances.” Which is an episode featuring Trixie, who has quite a bit of secondary canon to joss…

Good thing it’s mostly the bits of secondary canon I don’t like.

'Scaleless' canon vs. series canon. · 9:11pm May 22nd, 2016

So a while back, around chapter 21 I believe, folk found themselves caught a bit off guard when I started introducing aspects of MLP fan canon, having originally believed that the events on that side are meant to line up perfectly with what's happening on the show. Truthfully I've tried to have that be the case for as long as possible but as series six proceeds and naturally introduces new stuff that I can either ignore or try to make use of in addition to my favored bits from what fans have

RTAC #11: Moon · 11:04am Sep 24th, 2016

If you’ve been reading my posts regularly, you’ll know my special hate for the word “moon” as a measure of time.

So I dedicate this post to one of the biggest unanswered questions of chromatic hippology: how long a moon actually is? Because it’s clearly not a synonym for a month.

RTAC #14: The Other Sith · 4:36pm Apr 30th, 2017

This post is not as much of a good investigation as usual, in that it does not present a solid conclusion. We have bloody little to go on. It is, nevertheless, the most detailed collation of data I could make and an invitation to discussion.

(Lad|Fill)ies and gentle(colts|men), I present to you the Other Sith Problem:

Jossed Out · 6:21am May 21st, 2017

If twitter discussions with show staff are to be believed, all comics are supposed to be canon. Of course, saying that simply means they don’t understand the question, because occasionally, irreconcilable differences arise.

In expanded universes like that, we generally consider one of the mediums the primary source, while everything else is secondary, and in case of contradictions, the primary source takes precedence.
