A Non-Brony Tries To Explain: Friendship Is Magic

[WaffeDerMacht]

I'm actually going to direct people here when someone asks for an explanation of the fandom. You summed up my thoughts better than I could myself XD

[six672]

As a brony, I can say there is some pretty...weird...stuff out there, but if you know what you are looking for you can learn to stay away from it.

[Noctimium]

Well said, man

[highelves01]

As a brony i find this video well done.

[tomaspepino]

i saw all the episodes, but im noit brony, i just like the show no the fan base , is the same with star wars ...

[Theonlyultimategamer]

@opinionbox you say u hate franchise... I begin to charge my sonic rainboom.

You say you enjoy the show... I stop charging.

Thank goodness u didn't say this on /co/

And don't explain this shit it's simply magic you don't gotta explain shit!

[tavis5500]

you may say that you arent a brony. but you have had to see many episodes for this information

[OpinionBox]

@tavis5500 Ever heard of "Knowyourmeme" yeah, that's where I got most my source material. But, I have watched some episodes. I mean, how else can I even think to evaluate something without even watching it or doing research. That is what separates a balanced and an unbalanced opinion. The mistake so many haters seem to make.

No evidence=Your argument is invalid.

But no, I'm not a brony

[tavis5500]

@OpinionBox i was not expecting you to respond at all but i really did like your review. it was fitting and unbiassed by oppinions or hate. so id like to say good job it's a pretty good work. it just seems that anyone who watches enough episodes gets drawn in no matter how much they say its stupid gay and for little girls. it happened to me.

[OpinionBox]

@tavis5500 Well, providing balanced opinions to the world is pretty much why I made this channel. Also, with only one video at the moment (more is coming, but not on this topic) all I can do is be interactive.

Although I want't particularly drawn to the show much, I can see why others might (as explained :D)

Next video, will be about the school system (british) and I will hopefully get over my rage, to be able to provide a balanced view on that... but I doubt it :D

MLP FIM explained by a non-brony:

OMG CHILDRUN!!! SO IMMATURE!!!! FUCK YOU CANCUR FAGET!!!!

[cookiemonsta188]

the pink one? Her name is PINKIE PIE and she's awesome!!!!

[watergod321]

I am a brony, I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation, it was well versed in pony and spoke well to persuading equality and tolerance for all cartoon shows, I applaud your efforts and I hope someday some Parasprite comes in, watches your vid and goes to actually check it out and quits hating on the fandom

8:30 - Trollers used Troll!

It's not very effective!

[daddybowser]

8:10  Muffin top...

[EliteAtheist001]

As a brony I found this fair and balanced in the good and bad and reported very well .

[punkgrl325]

Good review but there's plenty of male ponies in the show. Regarding the lack of main male characters, there's a lack of characters outside of the main six in general, save for maybe the cutie crusaders. Regardless of gender, minor characters are introduced once, with not much more than a line or two in following episodes, if they're even lucky enough to get a cameo that is. At any rate, the show amuses me but I don't wait for each episode to come out; I just watch it passively. Anyway, GJ.

[Frogfish999]

you don't LIKE it, gosh, instant dislike

[BoredChick]

When was there a case of schizophrenia?

Pretty good video anyway

[Dread556]

@BoredChick (i know this is a slightly old comment, i just happened upon it)

pinkie pie, in episode 25, party of one, began to feel like her friends were trying to avoid her, making her think they were abandoning her and were disowning their friendship.

throughout the episode, she exhibits paranoia and a sense of delusion comparable to one of a diminishing state of mind. finally, she comes to full blown schizophrenia, completely convinced she no longer has friends, and so she creates her own

[BoredChick]

@Dread556 I figured they were talking about Pinkie Pie but my point was I do not think what was happening to her qualifies as schizophrenia. I am in no way an expert on the matter, however, but from what I understand, it is experiencing hallucinations where you see/interact people[/ponies] that do not exist. I think implanting personalities on inanimate objects is something completely different from schizophrenia. I don't have time to research it myself at the moment. whyamionYTthen?

[Dread556]

@BoredChick well if you look at it, pinkie pie was plainly giving the objects voices, just pretending that she was having a party with people.

the next couple of scenes however have them moving on their own and she starts to actually listen to what they were saying, convincing herself she was speaking to real people.

that's schizophrenia.....to a degree at least. she is perceiving things that aren't actually there and is living in a warped reality (i mean, more warped than usual lol).

[RarityBrony]

Duh, BOOOOORING!

[OpinionBox]

@RarityBrony Well it will be for anyone who is actually familiar with the whole ordeal. This was made for no bronies, by a non brony. See the reasoning?

[RarityBrony]

@OpinionBox

That doesn't mean you can't make it interesting. I've seen an episode of ThatGuyWithTheGlasses which reviews the show. He's not a brony, and he's not even a fan of the show at all, but he still makes it interesting to watch as well. You talk too fast and sometimes too unclear. You use random pictures that have close to nothing to do with what you're discussing. You're also using a heavy brittish accent, and not many people will understand a word you're saying. That makes it boring

[OpinionBox]

@RarityBrony Im not british, so dont claim I have an british accent :D

Most people will understand what I am saying, because its ENGLISH, and if not, YOU have the problem.

Thatguywiththeglasses is a kind of "comedian" I am not, I convey opinions. The pictures are there so that the entire presentation isnt just a black screen. some of them dont have any relevance I admit, but that does not mean ALL of them. E.g equestriadaily s-cap, image board stat etc

If one is interested, it wont be AS boring.

[Jozhua54321]

Yes. I cant think of anything else to say. Just yes.
