A few years ago, I reviewed the then-latest My Little Pony movie. I thought it was pretty good, but I also went into it with only one or two episodes’ worth of background information. Well, over the course of this introvert’s ironic hell that is lockdown, I have now watched every single episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, including those godawful Equestria Girls spin-offs. I would honestly rank it as one of my favourite animated shows, and where I was initially just confused at all the backlash its fandom has faced over the years, I am now even more annoyed at people drinking the Haterade just because people like something worth being invested in. So, as I take a look at this introduction to the newest incarnation of the show, understand that I’m not looking at it as a casual observer this time around.
