My Little Pony Tales/YMMV


 * Anvilicious: A good part of the time, anyway. While a few of the aesops were handled with surprising subtly, most of them fell into this.
 * Broken Base: Many fans who loved the previous fantasy good-versus-evil themed episodes of My Little Pony and Friends cried out They Changed It, Now It Sucks and Ruined FOREVER; there's also the Anthropomorphic Shift. Other fans however were indifferent and there are a few who liked it.
 * Broken Aesop: In "Just for Kicks", Starlight joins the soccer team hoping to impress her crush Ace, but he keeps humiliating her due to her lack of skill. Patch helps her become a better player, only for Ace to reject her again out of jealousy after she scores a game-winning kick. Starlight seems to realize that she shouldn't let her feelings for Ace dictate how she feels about herself... but then Ace, on the urging of the rest of the team, grudgingly apologizes, and she falls head over heels for him again. So much for finding your own self-confidence...
 * Ear Worm: In the grand tradition of My Little Pony, the opening theme and some of the better songs will definitely stay with you.
 * Fan Nickname: "Acehole" for ace
 * Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The only plausible reason why two of the ponies from this series got a kiddie ride made after them and the show has seen home video releases in the UK and Australia. And in Australia's case, it was a complete release of all 26 episodes spread across 4 volumes. The series received no video releases in it's home market, the U.S.
 * Nightmare Fuel: The way Patch's symbol looks has led some fans to think that she possibly sewed it onto her own body.
 * Tear Jerker: The song Off You Go from the episode Gribbet. You try not crying, especially just after losing a pet, or giving away something of sentimental value to someone else.
 * Too Good to Last: Retroactively applied. When the show was created, the Slice of Life format was new and visionary and not many people thought highly of it.
 * The Scrappy: Ace is the most hated character for not only treating girls like crap and using them for his own purposes(only made worse by the fact that the show is aimed for girls.) but for also being a Jerkass in general
 * Vindicated By History: As explained under Too Good to Last, more people like it more than when it was first released, as many now see the Slice of Life format as being groundbreaking.
 * Were Still Relevant Dammit
