In the world of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'', the most important moment in a young pony's life is when they earn their cutie mark: a magical marking that appears on a pony's flank that represents what makes them special. These three fillies have yet to earn theirs and they're on a mission to find out who they are! And they're going to be adorable while they're at it!
 
Return to the character index [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Characters|here]].

Line 41:
* [[Collective Identity]]: Gabby Gums
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: They don't understand that a Cutie Mark is all about self-discovery, so instead of practicing things they're already good at, they constantly try new things in hopes of getting a cutie mark in those areas.
* [[Cute but Cacophonic]] + [[In the Name of Thethe Moon]] + [[Motor Mouth]] = '''CUTIEMARKCRUSADERSSCREAMINGOUTTHEIRPLANS!! YAY!!'''
* [[Desperately Looking for Aa Purpose In Life]]: Finding one's purpose and special ability is how you obtain your cutie mark. Apple Bloom spends "Call of the Cutie" trying to find hers, and ultimately teams up with the other fillies at the end.
* [[Determinator]]: They '''are''' going to find their cutie marks and '''nothing's''' going to stop them.
* [[Deuteragonist|Deuteragonists]]: Considering how much focus is put on them, they collectively form the deuteragonist cast of the show with the Mane Cast as the protagonist cast.
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: The three were first seen together in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it shot in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S1 E1 Mare in The Moon|"Friendship Is Magic, Part 1" ("Mare in the Moon")]].
* [[Expy]]: Of The [[Powerpuff Girls|Power Puff Girls]]. Apple Bloom, the leader and [[Smart Guy|Smart Girl]], is Blossom; Scootaloo, the tomboyish [[Action Girl]], is Buttercup; Sweetie Belle, the adorable [[The Ditz|ditzy one]], is Bubbles.
* [[Failure Is the Only Option]]: Everything the Crusaders try to do to get a cutie mark fails. It would certainly be extremely surprising to see them succeeding in the course of the series...especially since Hasbro wants the episodes to be viewable in any order.
Line 72:
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Ridiculously Cute Critters]]: Their cuteness is even remarked upon by the, already cute, adult ponies.
* [[Rule of Three]]: This is followed in multiple ways. Aside from being a trio of three different types of ponies (an Earth Pony, a Pegasus and a unicorn), they also all have three syllables in their names (A-pple Bloom, Scoo-ta-loo and Swee-tie Belle).
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: In "Hearts and Hooves Day", they ship [[The Big Guy|Big Mac]]/[[Schoolmarm|Cheerilee]].
* [[True Companions]]: Like the Mane Cast, they've got a very close and strong bond of friendship between them.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Apple Bloom and Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle is really only a part of this when the entire group fights with each other.

Apple Bloom is Applejack and Big Macintosh's baby sister, an [[Moe Moe|adorable]] pony with a yellow coat and fluffy pinkish-red mane. In "Call of the Cutie", she became very insecure about not having her cutie mark yet and began [[Desperately Looking for Aa Purpose In Life|desperately searching for her special talent]]. After learning two of her classmates had the same problem, she formed a [[Power Trio]] with them in order to work together towards the same goal.
 
* [[American Accents]]: A southern drawl, just like the rest of her family.
Line 92:
** [[Breakout Character]]: She's pretty much hit this point in the show, and takes it [[Up to Eleven]] if you include the fan projects she's in.
* [[Big Brother Worship|Big Sister Worship]]: She greatly admires Applejack and eagerly declares her the coolest pony in Ponyville when asked.
* [[Closeup Onon Head]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Azz-6oT08c BUT I WANT IT NOW!], just 100% more adorable.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: Her mane is red and her body is yellow [[Meaningful Name|just like an apple which is red outside and yellow inside.]]
* [[Dawson Casting]]: Averted! [http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=187576124623301 As it turns out], Michelle is actually in the target demographic of the show.
Line 119:
* [[Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right]]: She deliberately disobeys Applejack's command to befriend Zecora in "Bridle Gossip". It's a good thing she did, [[Fantastic Racism|for Zecora's sake.]]
* [[The Smart Girl]]
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Once in a great while, her name will be spelled as "Applebloom."
* [[Wise Beyond Their Years]]: She's pretty smart for such a young filly.
* [[Working Class People Are Morons]]: Averted...at least in that she's shown to be the smartest of the group. Despite her age, she can occasionally force Applejack to resort to the "because I said so" argument and runs rings around Scootaloo on several occasions. She even manages to see past the superstition surrounding Zecora when nobody, not even the Mane Six, can.
* [[Wrench Wench]]: "[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S1 E18 The Show Stoppers|The Show Stoppers]]" implies that her talent lies in construction and design. At the very least, she was able to make Applejack's ugly old tree-house habitable.

Line 156:
* [[Hero Worshipper]]: Towards Rainbow Dash.
** Shown to be the president of Ponyville's Rainbow Dash Fan Club among the other fillies.
* [[Hollywood Tone Deaf]]: averted in [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)/Recap/S1 E18 The Show Stoppers|The Show Stoppers]] - her singing in the talent show isn't that bad, she's just off key, as any untrained or untalented singer would be.
* [[The Lancer]]: Usually, but she is headstrong enough to be [[The Leader]] at times.
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: Whether it's doing extreme stunts at high speed on her scooter or zip-lining through the treetops, Scootaloo will be first in line whenever the Crusaders do anything athletic, physical, or endangering to life and limb.

Line 193:
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: In "The Show Stoppers", concerning the supplies they get for their act.
** And again in "Stare Master", when she balks at the idea of cleaning up the cottage.
* [[Depending Onon the Writer]]: She seems to jump between [[Cloudcuckoolander]] and [[Genius Ditz]] quite often.
* [[The Ditz]]: Occasionally teeters on the edge of [[Cloudcuckoolander]] but hasn't reached that plateau yet. [[Irony|Ironically]] she tends to have the most common sense of the three Crusaders.
* [[Et Tu, Brute?|Et Tu, Dulcilla Pulchra]]: In ''Ponyville Confidential''. Rarity actually addresses her with "Et tu".
Line 211:
** In "Sisterhooves Social", she becomes the red to Rarity's blue.
* [[Rose-Haired Girl|Rose Haired Pony]]: Only partially though.
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: Becomes one during the Hearts and Hooves day episode. Indeed, out of all three crusaders, she seems particularly enthusiastic about finding Cheerilee a special somepony, to the point where she gives a [[Big Yes]] when she seems to succeed.
* [[Ship Tease]]: It's a blink-and-you'll-miss, but at the end of "A Canterlot Wedding part 2", the wedding snapshots show her dancing with Spike.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: She's very sweet but also very shy when it comes to singing. It's really a shame considering she has such a beautiful singing voice.
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Sometimes her name has been spelled "Sweety Bell".
* [[Strong Family Resemblance]]: To her big sister Rarity.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Girly Girl to Scootaloo's Tomboy.
