The My Little Pony Fandom is, at once, one of the most morbid and least moribund fandoms I know. It's one of the only fandoms I consider myself a part of, in no small part because the vast quantities of content created all but guarantees a reasonable amount of very high quality content. I'm sure I could easily fill an entire page in Word (well, LibreOffice Writer, really) with hyperlinks to pieces of art from the MLP fandom I really enjoy, not even counting pictures or music, for which I could

how so many people in this fandom follow the show so closely and devoutly then proceed to act completely against the lessons and morals it tries to teach y'all need another semester at the School of Friendship, swear to god

if you know you know

Honestly I think so. Like it or not our passion for cartoon horses is abnormal. Many, quote on quote 'normies' hearing about your passion for cartoon horses will call you literally everything under the sun. You will be considered a moral degenerate and basically a freak.

Today, I did something I haven't in a long time: gone on an all-day pony fan video binge. Specifically, I was (surprise, surprise) looking for classics. As my brain gradually heals, more memory fragments slowly come back, and it grows easier to find my way back to Memory Lane.

So...I've been through a lot of crap with the MLP fandom as of late.
So much crap...which more often than not has been my fault. I'm too caught on in shipping and Flash and so many things. It's been making my experience here worse.

Yup, there's a show I just got introduced to the other week. And I LOVE it. I'll provide hints as to what it is:

1. It's animated
2. It's a mystery show.
3. Its name is the location it takes place in.
4. There's codes at the end of each episode.
5. The villain is a demon of chaos.
6. The show airs on Disney XD
7. The theme has no words.

In honor of the Summer Sun Celebration, I have two essays to share: the first one being personal; and the second one being analytical.

PERSONAL

I mean seriously, adding to the fact that this is somewhat true with every fandom, the whole video is nothing but humor upon humor stacked every second or so

I'm pretty sure we are still getting new fans, even now. But I feel mostly hardcore, diehard fans are left. But do you think there will be an explosion of new fans eventually at some point from a new show in the future? Said new fans, will go back and watch G4.

Such a rise may come with its own dangers. We will be in the spotlight once again.

Slice of Life was a celebration of the overwhelming creativity of this fandom. Of the passion and creativity that drives us as a community. How we can take a character who exists for a second on screen and weave numerous personalities and lives for them, all based around a frozen moment in time.

As I type this, there are two stories about the Changeling from the wedding scene in the feature bar.

The circle is complete, and the cycle begins anew.

And that is why I love this fandom.

Here is the story of how I became a Brony...

It begins over a decade ago when I became an anime fan after watching Neon Genesis Evangelion. For a good decade I was a huge anime fan.

In 2011, I met someone who was anime fan though she later became a brony herself. It was Season 1 and she was the first one who introduced me to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Okay, BESIDES that!

...at least from writing anything but my OC. Granted, I still plan to finish up any incomplete fics if I can, fulfill the backlog of requests I have, and do the sequels I planned, but otherwise I'll likely no longer take any new requests and only write what truly sparks me, if anything.

Back in like 2017, I set a series of goals for myself, and said that once I accomplished them all, I'd leave the fandom. They were:

• Go to BronyCon
• Speak on a panel at BronyCon
• Get over 1000 followers on FiMFiction
• Get interviewed by the Royal Canterlot Library
• Something else that I can't remember??

It seems we have become the Dúnedain of Eriador after the fall of Arnor. Our numbers are few, and we get few reinforcements in the form of new fans. But as semi furries (some of us, outright furries) we may draw in some new people here and there. Perhaps when the G5 series will happen Aragon will come out of the shadows and lead us to greatness once more? Then again, not every brony is on fimfiction. We are spread out like Rangers. I think our numbers are not as few as we think they are.

One of the things I love about this fandom is how seriously a lot of us take it. Subject matter that's supposed to be whimsical gets analyzed from a thousand different angles, and you end up having some pretty weird conversations. Here's a philosophical dialogue I had with a stranger on Facebook yesterday:

Me:

I'm sorry to say this. It's not anybody's fault. It's just that I'm in a bit of a depressive state. I don't want to project my feelings onto others or manipulate anybody when I say this, but I've made a lot of mistakes and screw-ups today and I don't think that I'm ever going to improve no matter what I do, because I personally think that all I ever do is mess things up and ruin others' lives. You don't have to feel bad for me or anything. I just need your opinion on whether I should or
