I know :(. Her mother was mentally abusive towards her. Trust me if you neglect your child and teach her to be mean to others purposely you're a bad mother. I dont give a crap if youre having a bad time. You shouldnt have a child if you do this.

@@Raspopopo It's curious: they get their cutie mark at 5, but we humans don't understand our role in life until after 16.

I'm up for redemption and all of that, but I'm still salty at my own childhood bullies (because they never apologized) so forgiving Diamond Tiara IS not easy.

@@lonelyscarygirl True! I really wish most of mine (and the current ones) would actually apologize and realize what they're doing is wrong. Out of all them, only one has ever apologized, and this is after she was removed from her abusive home. And I did cut her some slack after realizing the home she grew up in. It's to bad I don't know what happened with her father I moved, but we had become friends after a while.

@@jammington24 well I think that’s the point of the CMC, a lot of ponies were struggling because despite having a cutie mark they didn’t actually understand their role in life.

Ayyyyyyyy

"it's true"

Applejack fan confirmed

+Nitro Nate That kind of power must be respected.

+Nitro Nate So, you've never heard of Steven Universe?

+Llamamall I don't really like that show, but you do you bro!

Nitro Nate Same to you!

+Nitro Nate What about Teen Titans? (not talking about the tearing part).

From your brain.

I agree.

Yeach he's a good guy. His wife is a true evil.

Episode: *_The CMC wake up after achieving their dreams_* Literally every brony ever: *_NUUUUUU! WTF HASBRO?! (weeps)_*

omg imagineeeee

Three things in this show still give me goosebumps: The start of Diamond Tiara's song, Princess Luna's song as a Hearth's Warming spirit, and the first time Princess Celestia sang.

+K art Arguably the best episode of the show. I thought they were jumping the shark with Slice of life. But then this aired. This is my favorite episode. It reminds me of why I love this show. I am and I know that I will forever be a proud Brony :D

+DarkSabreArc meh. it's OK. definitely not the best. I liked the music though.

+DarkSabreArc Well, they did... (Not sure if you missed this or just worded it a bit awkwardly :D) vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/mlp/images/d/de/Octavia_and_DJ_Pon-3_%22jump_the_shark%22_S5E9.png/revision/20150615111317

:weary2:

@@CloudBringer bruh sound effect

Troubleshoes

Trouble shoes lol

They can show them struggling to help people find themselves theres plenty of creativity there

+Shabbycat You know I don't think the antispirals need help getting cutiemarks

Possibly... but maybe they just need a friend.

+Shabbycat I think they'll become the new main characters eventually.

+Banchoking Maybe they would have a spin-off show.

The Smoking Skull Maybe.

This is season 5

Over five years later, I still haven't reached that day.

Yeah, kinda bummed I didn't catch it. I knew they already tried to confirm the dead parents with the two shooting stars at the family reunion, but perhaps they were aware that people were STILL debating on it. Now they've given us an explicit mention XD

+Luffyiscool hey Luffy I think Pipsqueak is part cow he doesn't seem to be able to get a cutie mark and DTs Mother said he was a transplant or something else along those lines plus his colours are more towards cows than they are Ponys P.s if anyone else knew that I didn't

+Deathmetastar Of Rainbows and Dashes No, Pip is just a runt (my guess) or a dwarf pony. His pattern is "pinto", a natural coat for some equine breeds. He's from Trottingham, so pinto ponies must be more populated there.

+Steven Stabbers Lein I missed that, I still hold hope they'll show up tho. They could've been lost at sea or something, hey I can hope. XD

+Luffyiscool Still might show up after being lost for decades, hey I can dream. XD

+Mich Royal You should watch DemonAngel 13s reactions if thats the reaction you like to see.

+Little Pip I agree with you there.

Little Pip I will search him!

Mich Royal her lol

Yes, indeed her. She is very emotional when it comes to her reactions.

Yes, actually. Death is not a new thing to be referenced in kids shows. Disney movies in particular had plenty of parental death, most famously Mufasa.

yeah I know just it caught me off guard that they confirmed it

They attempted to subtly confirm it in Apple Family Reunion as well, with the shooting stars :)

really? that was the one episode I missed XD

+Luffyiscool true but that was back in the 90’s/before executives were not fearful of angry parents, so it is nice to see Hasbro at least has some leeway to give.

Yeah, kinda bummed I didn't catch it. I knew they already tried to confirm the dead parents with the two shooting stars at the family reunion, but perhaps they were aware that people were STILL debating on it. Now they've given us an explicit mention XD

That's kind of morbid for a kids show, you cant just kill off parents who aren't Batman's

Disney did it all the time, for many young kid movies.

+thoamas lizbad Luffy's right, Disney kills off parents left and right.

How did that turn out?

Painfully

xXVOID wolf78Xx​ Heh heh, you're funny.

+The Smoking Skull can't if your being sarcastic or not

xXVOID wolf78Xx No, I'm being honest. I actually thought your reply was funny.

No, but it's ok because most of us already knew they were dead.

+Luffyiscool True

1. 0:13 "My throat is starting to get a bit hoarse..." For most of us, that didn't happen until _after_ the episode. ;) 2. 2:40 _I Want to Break Free_ from the bully archetype 3. 4:52 "Everyone's finally tired of her s#!^." Even the writers, as it turns out! 4. 7:27 "I think DemonAngel is going to squee when she gets to this episode." I think she's going to have multiple meltdowns by the end of this episode. I'm actually a little worried for her. 5. 13:14 "What a weird face." Hopefully that'll be the *only* trait Diamond Tiara ends up inheriting from her mother. 6. 14:18 "It's a musical episode. isn't it?" I'm calling it MMC, Jr. 7. 17:59 "This is going to feel so awkward for some people who decided ever since Flight to the Finish that she was an irredeemable scumbag who needed to die in a fire." Those people are just going to have to settle for having Angel Bunny as their target for everlasting hatred. :) 8. 21:13 I wonder how you would have reacted to Applejack's mention of your parents had you caught it. 9. 24:50 Well said text box, well said. I have yet to see a single reactor who hasn't shed some liquid pride over this episode.

+Narrator007 1. This cold has really blind-sided me. Today I'm nothing but a weezing, snotty mess with no energy. 4. I'm worried too. Expecting a breakdown of MMC level at the very least, especially when they get their marks. 7. I think Amy did something very clever by introducing her mom in the way she did. Now she can be a lightning rod, so most of the fan's dislike for Diamond Tiara transfers to her mother. Get what I mean? I think Amy employed a little bit of viewer psychology there. 8. Probably just a sad "aww...", because while it's definitely a touching comment, we already knew her parents were gone.

Luffyiscool 8. Even though AJ mentioning her parents didn't tell us anything we didn't already know, it still felt a little shocking to me that they actually addressed it in the show. It was just one more indication of how much our little show has grown up (much like our little CMCs).

Thank you :)

But she was one of those characters you just love to hate! I'm kinda dissapointed I don't have someone to rant over how horrible she is.

+Hedwig The owl Hey Hedwig, To be honest, I found/find it plainly ignorant to hate her. Or anybody for that matter. Hating Haters just shows how little capable you are of compassion IRL. Not only towards others but yourself as well. And of how little you understand how hurtful people actually work. It's simple: Hurt people hurt people. In other words: Diamond Tiara was never just "horrible". That's black/white like thinking. She was confused as everybody is who needs to put others down in order to feel right (or better... you could also say artificially complete and worthy. Too bad it only works for a short time so she needed to strike again soon). I don't hate on anybody or anypony, and no, not Spoiled Rich either. She's confused as well, which is clearly pointed to by the fact that she has no real friends. But for people like you who need to hate others in order to feel right (in other words better) in comparison - because that's all hating others is serving in the end - you now have Spoiled Rich. I don't say you are wrong, by the way. There is no other way to act until that changes because of your insights, just as it was impossible for DT to act differently until she began to clearly see what was happening to her by treating others the way she did. But anyway. If its so important to you to rant over how horrible a character is just take your hate on Spoiled Rich. Problem solved. ~ ANdy

I don't need to hate others to feel right your jumping to conclusions. How I feel about a fictional character does not determine how I look at people irl. I try to be friends with everyone and all I was saying is I'm gonna miss DT being a brat because it was entertaining. And I'm not saying people bullying is entertaining because it _is_ _just_ a tv show. For kids.

+Hedwig The owl It is a big difference to say you were entertained by a villain - but still understanding the tragic behind them - or to complain that you "don't have someone to rant over how horrible she is" which is really lack of compassion, just needing a character that you enjoy to take down, to hate. Which always comes from a need to feel good in comparison. Let me tell you a little secret. If you don't understand it now, you may one day you do and you will find it incredible helpful: Everything you percieve, especially how you judge it is your projection. It's not pure, what it presented as your perception is your brains personal interpretation of reality. Therefore your judgement about others mirrors your personal thinking. No matter if it's what you call reality or TV Show. You don't interact with the world, you interact with your story about the world, with part of yourself in the end. Example: - People who find others childish for liking MLP are suffering from not being able to allow themselves to like stuff if their brain labels it as childish. The thinking that causes them to attack others is attacking themselves in the end. It's like a personal "daddy" in their head that keeps them in check and ultimately limits them. So the amount you hate others, the world, even cartoon characters is the amount you hate yourself in the end. The amount you take others down is the amount ... you get the idea. You can say "It's just a TV show" all you want. The brain works the same way with whatever you percieve, its all a mirror of your own thinking. That's psychological reality.

Thanks :)

+Luffyiscool Except Jim made an interesting twitter reply to someone who tweeted something like "that answers about their parents" XD

It's probably because I watch this show with my inner child, which is the target audience. I resonate with this show and it's messages so much, and I feel wonderful when I watch it.

+Luffyiscool That's probably it, and sounds very familiar to me. Also: You don't interpret weird stuff into everything like some other people do sometimes. You seem to be very non-cynical, which is a very nice quality to have.

Thanks, I do try and just be my honest self. You really are just watching me WATCH ponies, which is what original reacting was about, and some people seem to be losing sight of.

Before I hit record, I was planning on mentioning your channel, but because I was tired I FORGOT. How's that for irony lol

+Luffyiscool Is amusing the way things happen sometimes XD No worries. Many thanks for the thought though! ^..^

Parents are on vacation, so no curfew. I stayed up all night watching RWBY reactions.

+Znegil Same Here!

+Znegil I'm currently at 8 and I got through 6 and 7 without fully crying and just getting wet eyes (although I teared up quite a few times when I looked at the stuff about this episode on reddit)...This one got me again...Just a crazy episode...

+Znegil I don't see what is emotional about it. Well, I get it intellectually, but I just can't feel anything. The only episode that almost made me cry was the one with MoonDancer, now that was heart breaking. I almost cried at the cute mark part but only because of how much they clashed with their coats...

cortster12 Well, not everyone feels the same way, that is only natural. I guess, most people are just so proud of the CMC for finally making it.

Znegil I would have been proud if it didn't feel like such an ex-machina moment and out of the blue.
