Happy New Year's Eve, everybrony! I hope that y'all appreciate the pic. Saw it on My Little Brony this morning, and it's been helping me smile ever since. Does anybody know who drew it? I couldn't find a credit link on MLB.
Today, I’d like to discuss a cliché that is very common in children’s media, and actually shows up in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic a few times. The irony is that, even as a child, I recognized and disliked this particular cliché. In particular, I remember it from both Dragonball Z and Digimon Frontier, among others. Captain Planet even built its entire premise around this cliché (well, that and being preachy, but let’s not get sidetracked).

tv tropes
it's a good story
My previous LDC post was about a very omnipresent cliché. Today, I’d like to discuss a similarly common, and no less frustrating trope; the phonetic accent.
What is it? The phonetic accent is when a writer attempts to spell a word how it sounds. There is (usually) no guidelines or reasoning to it, and it’s often far disconnected from normal spelling.
Today's discussion is about a very old cliche. It is so ubiquitous that I'm many of you have encountered it in multiple places before. Just because it is commonplace, however, doesn't mean that we can't examine it and try to do better.
For some reason, one thing I absolutely love to death is JRPG tropes. I’m talking stuff like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, stuff concerning party composition, storyline tropes, and all that jazz.
It’s apparently gone so far that I want to write some MLP JRPG thing. It includes all this party composition, enemy tropes, and stuff like that. This may be because I’m playing through Dragon Quest VI and I honestly love it a lot.

Well, this is an interesting episode. I feel that the premise is a tad arbitrary— much like last week's episode, this is a lesson that Rainbow should already have long learnt. But in spite of that, the imagery is just so good. Holy crud, even when knowing the gist of the plot it was actually pretty exciting. So, as usual, have some thoughts!
