My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic Season 3
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen a cartoon that I actually became emotionally invested in and by a long time I mean like 10 years. XD For those of you who grew up with Saturday morning cartoons you know what I’m talking about: Pokemon, Yugioh, Medabots, Ed Edd and Eddy, etc 90s cartoons, which in my opinion have become almost non-existent nowadays in terms of quality of dialogue, background music, character personality and such. Heck, don’t get me wrong I’ve tried to get into some of the new cartoons nowadays like Adventure Time and Regular Show and others but they all lack character depth and audience attachment, the what I call the “relate-ability factor”. Sure they are cool characters, but I don’t really find myself caring for them as much the jokes are super random for my taste, some plain stupid, and others I’m like, what? In short the humor is based off forced sarcasm or plain meanness. I just watch and get a laugh that’s it. Then there are those once in a blue moon cartoons like Friendship is Magic that truly make you wonder what happened to cartoons as of late. This is how a cartoon should be done.
The best way I could describe Friendship is Magic is like a perfect blend of anime, 90s cartoons, with a hint of disney. For me characterization depth is a worth it’s weight in gold and quite frankly the ponies have got it in fact the whole cast has it, try to wrap your head around that. As a college dude, that’s now a senior this cartoon made feel like that 10 year old boy who watched Pokemon for the first time in awe.
It amazes me how the characterizations of the mane 6 are so lifelike it’s almost as though they were real girls. What amazed me further is that at some points I see a little bit of myself in all 6 of them, Twilight being the frame of my personality.
All in all, when I found out there were a whole group of global fans called Bronies who are dedicated to this show, I wasn’t surprised to see that they were all about my age. I guess they must have felt the same childhood rekindling I experienced. 😀 MLP:FIM is cartooning at it’s finest, and I hope it keeps it up.
