My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S2/E19 Putting Your Hoof Down/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


New!Fluttershy: "I can't believe that the two most frivolous ponies in Ponyville are trying to tell New!Fluttershy how to live her life when they are throwing their own lives away on pointless pursuits that nopony else gives a flying feather about!"

    • You can see them tearing up as Fluttershy rips them apart, and it hurts to even watch.
    • The facial expressions make the entire scene hard to watch. Not only are Pinkie's and Rarity's sad expressions heartbreaking, but everything from their stunned expressions when Fluttershy first insults them to the cruel smile Fluttershy has on while she does it is perfect. Kudos to the artists and animators on this one.
  • Fluttershy realizing what she's become after said speech is pretty depressing too. There's even a sad version of her trademark Squee sound when she frowned.

Fluttershy: I'm the monster.
