EDIT: So like maybe I shouldn't have said all this and like okay if anyone from DHX Media ever finds their way to this crappy corner of the internet and reads this I'm sorry for being a titanic chumpstick and shooting my mouth all off. If there is one thing you shouldn't be on the internet though it's a coward so I ain't gonna take this blog entry down, I will just apologize like a MAN for getting so acid about it; I know you guys try your best over there.
DHX Media: Rarity was the first of her sort of character to not be a shallow, selfish, unlikeable whiner.
Lauren Faust's Rarity was refined, and artsy and fussy and vain and a bit hoity-toity, let's face it—a real Boston Blue-Blood. But she was kind and generous or at least tried very hard to be—even if she didn't always succeed, or gave from the wrong motivation—and she would on several occasions go against her very nature in order to help others. I guess Lauren Faust was trying to show that you can be super girly and not like dirt and like dresses and etiquette and formality and style things and STILL be a great friend and a nice person and not be some unlikeable prissy snob.
After Lauren Faust left, you started to undo all that. Good job.
—sincerely
some loser tool
no but seriously, I am just going to straight up ignore the majority of rarity's traits as the seasons progress and just offer those seasons the occasional nod in the way of plot development because apparently the writers at The Studio Formerly Named B won't dare preserve a positive character trait if they can sacrifice it in the name of a cheap gag.

just finishing the next page
should be a couple of days, tops
I'm still (still) here.
Got distracted trying to make music. Sorry, still here!
I'm STILL HERE.
I know I vanished for like a month and a half but i'm STILL HERE. Just a couple things came up, among which were a couple commissions which took me way longer than they should've. I am just finishing the pencils for the next page now.
Still here.
i tried to quit but apparently i cant
honestly, for a long time, I INTENDED to just quit the comic and tell you all how it was meant to end, like i said I would. logically, i did not have time to keep working on it. But whenever I started trying to create the "this is how it was supposed to end" document, I would get really bummed out, because it reminded me how much I WANTED to actually just tell the story. So I'd waffle, back and forth, on and off.
I am currently out of a job.
If I updated this comic once a week, EVERY week, would any of you be willing to donate a very small amount via patreon? I am not a core member, and thus I cannot make an actual deviantart poll, so here

The show's a comedy. We need to stop taking every little thing so seriously. Sometimes Rarity's played for jokes, sometimes it's Dash, often it's Pinkie, etc. It's all about recognizing when a character is being given "serious development" time and when they're not. The characters all often fall back on old character traits for a laugh.
The show's a comedy before anything else. And we as fans need to remember this.
