Characters and stories of the cartoons "My Little Pony"

The 1984 cartoon tells the story of the country of Ponyland. There are 3 types of ponies living in the country: regular ponies, pegasus and unicorns. One day, Ponyland is attacked by a certain Tirban and his accomplice. Tirban's desire is quite original - to turn four ponies into dragons and harness them in this form to his chariot. Countering Tirban's criminal intentions became the core of the cartoon's plot.

The 1986 full-length cartoon colorfully describes the struggle of the little ponies living in Ponyland with the evil witch Hydia, who planned to prevent the preparations for the holiday in honor of the first day of spring.

In the 1986 series My Little Pony and Friends, characters familiar to modern young viewers appeared: a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia, Spike the dragon and other friends of Sparkle. The series tells the story of how Twilight Sparkle goes in search of friends in the city of Ponyville, where she participates in various adventures. It's already happening in a country called Equestria.

The series about little ponies “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” can be called new, because it was released in the 21st century. The events of this series take place in the same fairy-tale country of Equestria, which is inhabited by ponies. In addition to them, various intelligent animals live here: buffalos, cows and zebras, as well as dragons, griffins, and other fantastic individuals. The country is full of squirrels, hares, bears and other animals. A new season of the series is expected in 2017.

TV series "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic"

The events of the series about ponies “Friendship is Magic” take place in a fantasy country - Equestria. The citizens of the fairy-tale country are, first of all, ponies, and then dragons, cows, griffins, zebras, manticores, buffaloes, as well as hares, squirrels and other inhabitants of mountains, forests and fields.

The natural processes of Equestria are strictly regulated. The country's rulers, Princesses Celestia and Luna, ensure the sun rises and the moon enters the sky. The weather is controlled by Pegasi, whose factory produces clouds, rain, snow and rainbows. In addition, Pegasi oversee the skies in the most significant populated areas of the country, and, if necessary, transform them in various ways. The seasons change each other under the influence of magic or with the help of collective labor, which is determined by the customs of the town and the presence of a skilled wizard in the village. You will laugh, but in Equestria there is an area where everything grows and changes on its own - this is the Evergreen Forest. Therefore, for reasonable citizens of the country, this forest is a wild and scary place.

Ponies living in Equestria are divided into different types:

• Earth ponies are simple, ordinary horses. They love to work, especially in the fresh air, so they are probably involved in agricultural production.
• Pegasi are ponies that have wings. They control the weather and, accordingly, have the skills of flying and walking on clouds.
• Unicorns are ponies that have one magical horn that helps them practice witchcraft. From the cradle they have mastered telekinesis, but they are not alien to other methods of sorcery.
• Alicorns are special ponies that have both horns and wings. The main magicians and wizards of the country, dexterous and skilled, are bearers of rare, supernatural abilities. This species is represented by only five princesses: Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Twilight Sparkle and Flurry Heart.

Cartoon "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls" (2013)

While with her friends in the Crystal Empire, Twilight Sparkle loses her crown as Princess of Equestria. In fact, the crown was stolen from her by a unicorn named Sunset Shimmer. Friends set off in pursuit of the thief, but she disappears in the mirror, which turns out to be the entrance to the human world. Princess Celestia informed Twilight that without the crown, all other Elements of Harmony do not work and cannot be used to protect Equestria. Twilight Sparkle must return the crown, but only she can enter the world of people; friends must be left in this world. When entering the human world, Twilight Sparkle was followed by the stupid dragon Spike, who in the human world turned into a talking dog, and Twilight Sparkle turned into a human girl. They begin their search for the crown in Carnelot with a building that is the city school.

Twilight Sparkle begins to get used to her human body, and carefully observes the inhabitants of the strange new world she finds herself in. She meets a girl who is very similar to her friend: it turns out her name is Fluttershy. Twilight asks Fluttershy about the crown. Fluttershy tells her that she did find the crown, but she gave it to the school principal, Celestia. Twilight and Spike head to the director's office.

While searching for the crown, Twilight Sparkle meets other schoolchildren who are very similar to her friends from the world of ponies. She talks about her mission in the human world, including the fact that she has 3 days to return the crown. If Sparkle does not have time to return the crown, the portal will close and she will remain for a month. Her new friends decide to help her.

Together, the friends manage to find the crown, but then Sunset comes into play, threatening to destroy the portal to the pony world unless Sparkle gives her the crown. Twilight doesn't want to hear about it, and Sunset decides to take the crown by force. After attacking the princess, Sunset takes the crown and, putting it on, turns into a demon. Then, having bewitched the schoolchildren, she tells them that she will not destroy the portal, because she wants to conquer Equestria using students from the human world. Sunset Shimmer attempts to destroy Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Rainbow Dash, but they join hands and form a magical defense. Sparkle understands that the Elements of Harmony are strong in this world as well. The power of friendship magic helps the friends defeat Sunset. Defeated, Sunset admits her mistake and promises not to act like that again. Friends decide to accept her into their circle, and then Twilight Sparkle and her faithful dog Spike return home to the pony world.

Cartoon "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Rainbow Rock" (2014)

The action of this animated film takes place in Canterlot High School. Former miscreant Sunset Shimmer, who reformed after being defeated by the magic of the Twilight Spark crown, is bullied by most of the school, despite her attempts to atone for her evil deeds. Her only friends are Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity, who have formed a rock band called the Rainbowbooms to participate in an upcoming school music competition. Five girls discover that the magic left over from Twilight Sparkle's crown helps them grow ears, tails and wings like ponies from Equestria while playing music.

Enjoying the new experience, Sunset gives a tour of the school to three new students - Adagio Dazzle, Sonata Susk and Aria Blaze - and tells them about the music competition, unaware that they can sing magical songs. Calling their group "Dazzling", the trio perform a song that turns the other students into aggressive, competitive opponents, convincing them to turn a friendly competition into a competitive rivalry. Sunset and her friends are protected from the Dazzling song by their magic, but cannot protect the school's headmaster Celestia and vice-principal Luna from danger. Sunset remembers a book that can be used to send messages to the parallel world of ponies in Equestria. Using the book, she sends Twilight Sparkle a request for help.

After receiving Sunset's message, Twilight Sparkle remembers that the members of the Dazzling group are actually sirens exiled from Equestria. They feed on negative emotions to intensify their singing to achieve their goal of conquering the world. Sparkle uses a magic book to restore the transition between worlds, and she and Spike return to the parallel world. Twilight and the girls try to use the magic of their friendship to weaken Dazzling's spells, but unfortunately, the result is zero. Twilight Sparkle plans to use the magic of friendship during a music competition. As the competition progresses, "Rainbooms" almost makes it to the finals, although their rivals interfere with them - the negative magic of "Dazzling" greatly affects "Rainbooms".

Help comes from unexpected places. Spike saves the girls with the help of DJ Pon-3 - he constantly wears headphones and does not hear the Dazzling spells. He provides the soundtrack to the Rainbowbooms' performance as they begin to chant against the Dazzlings. While singing, the Rainbowbooms are joined by Sunset, who takes on her own pony form. With Sunset's help, the Rainbowbooms destroy the magical necklaces that helped the members of the Dazzling group. The Rainbowbooms win, the schoolchildren return to their normal state, kick the Dazzling group out of the competition and wildly welcome the Rainbowbooms' victory. Twilight Sparkle and Spike return to Equestria.

Cartoon "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Friendship Games" (2015)

In Canterlot, traditional competitions are held in which local schoolchildren meet their rivals - students from the Crystal Academy. The competitions are called “Friendship Games”.

In this cartoon, Twilight Sparkle, in human form, studies at the Crystal Academy and really wants to transfer to study at a more prestigious institution. The head of the Crystal Academy, Synch, strongly recommends that Sparkle take part in the Friendship Games. Otherwise, she will prohibit Sparkle from moving to another educational institution. Twilight has to agree.

Upon arrival in Canterlot, Sparkle examines the Canterlot school and accidentally notices that her amulet takes away the magic that Rarity used when trying on new outfits in front of her friends. The friends finally saw Sparkle and were very happy, but it turned out that this was not the same Sparkle at all. Sunset quickly realizes the mistake and decides to consult Twilight Sparkle from the pony world, but Twilight Sparkle's amulet from the Crystal Academy absorbs Sunset's magic and closes the portal between the human and pony worlds. In the same way, the mysterious amulet affects Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy when they try to make friends with Twilight Sparkle from the Crystal Empire during games.

In the first round of the Friendship Games, Twilight Sparkle wins the academic decathlon. The second round was generally an equal fight between the schools, but the Carnelot students still won by a small margin, which gave rise to the director of the Crystal Academy accusing the Carnelot students of using witchcraft.

At the beginning of the third round, Sparkle opens the amulet, after which she turns into a winged and horned monster, somewhat similar to a human alicorn. Now the dark Twilight Sparkle opens portals to the world of ponies. Sunset, using the same amulet, transforms into the same creature and, using the magic of friendship, defeats Twilight Spark. Sparkle asks everyone for forgiveness for her behavior. Life gets better, and Princess Cadance allows Twilight to transfer to Canterlot High, and Sunset and the other students welcome her as a new friend.

Cartoon "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Legends of the Evergreen Forest" (2016)

Like the first three Equestria Girls films, this cartoon again follows the main pony characters as teenagers attending school.

Canterlot High School students are heading to Everfree Summer Children's Camp. Upon arrival at the camp, the seven friends met the camp's leadership - Gloriosa Daisy and Timber Spruce, her brother. The students make plans for their vacation and talk about what gift Canterlot High will give to the camp. Suddenly, a certain Philsi Rich, who is the owner of local lands, arrives at the camp. It turns out that he was once a graduate of Camp Everfree.

At night, Timber tells the students the story of the forest spirit Guy Everfree, who, outraged by the construction of the camp, threatened to send natural disasters upon it. The next morning, the guys begin to implement their vacation plans, and suddenly they see how the pier by the river is falling apart. As a gift to the camp, they decide to build a new pier and begin work. Suddenly, a yacht crashes into the unfinished dock, and the young tourists see a trail of shiny precious dust in the water, matching the description of Gaia Everfree's presence in Timber's history. Apparently Gaia exists! However, Twilight Sparkle thinks she is responsible for the accident.

Later, amid a seeming earthquake and another sighting of pearl dust, Twilight Sparkle's friends begin to develop their own unique superhuman abilities, which they believe they can only use within the confines of the camp. Believing that her magic is infecting her friends, Twilight flees the camp. Sunset follows Twilight into the forest and, discovering her own telepathic power, convinces her to stay at the camp. As Timber, who has caught up with the girls, leads them back to camp, Sunset notices pearl dust falling from his pocket and suspects that he is Gaia Everfree.

While walking around the area, Sunset Shimmer comes across a cave in a quarry, from which a strange glow flows. Exploring the cave together, Sunset, Twilight and Spike find two colored crystals in the cave. In the cave, Gloriosa appeared out of nowhere, took the crystals and turned into that same Gaia Everfree. She ties up three travelers and locks them in a cave, blocking the exit from the cave with stones, and around the camp she creates an impassable barrier of blackberries.

Twilight's friends remaining in the camp try to get out of the blocked camp, and at this time Spike releases Twilight and Sunset Shimmer from the cave. After the entire group unites, Sparkle, at the request of her friends, takes away Gaia's magic crystals and returns Gloriosa to her normal state. To celebrate the victory over Gaia, a fashion show is held at the river pier, and a party is organized in the cave.

A children's animated series called My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic was released on American television in 2010. Since then, this series has gained immense popularity. There was nothing unusual about this until I came across the shocking experiences of his adult followers...

About the cartoon

The world in which all the events take place is populated by many magical, intelligent zoomorphic mythical creatures such as ponies, griffins, dragons, etc. Events take place in a magical country called Equestria, where ponies live. These horses have different abilities, so some ponies have a magic horn, which allows them to cast spells, while others have wings, which give them the ability to fly and walk on the clouds, there are also ponies that have both a horn and wings. Such ponies are called “alicorns” and rule the country. The artists gave the rest of the ponies additional body parts, but they are physically stronger than the others. Equestria is ruled by two sisters, Celestia and Luna, who live in a luxurious castle.

***

In medieval (Christian) painting, the horse is one of the symbols of lust...

Plot

In the story, the unicorn Twilight Sparkle comes to Ponyville under the guidance of her protégé Princess Celestia. Twilight is absorbed in her studies and does not find time to communicate with other ponies, but she comes to Ponyville with her assistant, the little dragon Spike, where she finds her best friends.

Twilight has five friends in total and each is unique in its own way.

***

Rainbow Dash Monitors the weather. She is devoted to her friends and never leaves them in trouble, just like everyone else. Has the bad character of a tomboy and a hooligan. Everything is decided with “fists”. She has no talents, she is stupid:

***

Apple Jack Farmer. Engaged in growing apples and producing alcohol. Never lies. Represents a rude hillbilly:

***

Fluttershy (Fluttershy) Forester. Takes care of animals. Timid and kind, but sometimes behaves dissolutely and obscenely:

***

Rarity. Sews dresses. Arrogant, capricious, but in the cartoon she personifies generosity. She loves fashion and outfits, and is obsessed with appearance and luxury.

***

Pinkie Pie. Bakes sweets and makes other ponies laugh. Naughty and very stupid:

***

Twilight. Librarian, now princess. Practices witchcraft. Shown as an intelligent and well-read character:

Throughout the entire cartoon, together they save their horse world, or solve various everyday problems, most often completely trivial.

It looks like an ordinary children's musical cartoon with bright colors, which determines its success and children's delight. But if you carefully read the series, you will notice the following:

The first thing you should pay attention to is the universal matriarchy. In the cartoon, Equetsria is ruled by alicorn princesses. All the main characters of the cartoon are female characters. There are practically no male characters in the cartoon, even background ones. All “men” can do is guard and carry heavy loads. The exceptions are so insignificant that they do not deserve mention.

We have already written that there are four types of ponies. These are alicorns, unicorns, pegasi and just ponies. However, different ponies occupy different positions in society depending on what type they belong to. What is the division into lower and higher castes.

The cartoon demonstrates the commonality and approval of drinking alcohol. Moreover, absolutely all adult ponies drink alcohol. So, for example, in episode 2 of season 15, all the ponies are in a hurry to drink cider, which is not enough for everyone, including the main characters.

The main characters live separately from their parents, and many seem to have no parents at all. For those heroes whose parents exist, their turbulent life has erased their memory. In the cartoon, even children's characters live without their parents! Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle live with their sisters - the main characters.

The cartoon contains footage that is not at all childish. But not everyone is noticeable when watching a cartoon, but it’s not in vain that animators work on this.

- Too bright, saturated colors, rapid frame changes are not good for the psyche of small children.

Are there any positive aspects to this animated series? Yes, they are present. For example, the main characters avoid conflict situations by solving all their problems together.

The cartoon demonstrates the impact on the characters of various bad qualities, such as stubbornness, greed and pride, but in the story the main characters learn a lesson and try not to do that again. And this could be a good cartoon if it weren’t for the destructive ideas put into the child’s mind.

Oddly enough, the cartoon has become popular mainly among teenagers and infantile men - usually closed and unsociable people. The series also gained popularity among sexual deviants.

Since the cartoon itself was originally filmed exclusively for girls, the enthusiasm of adult boys for it is alarming. Fans of the animated series have formed a whole community more like a sect, calling themselves “Brony” (Brony is a merger of the words brother and pony). Over 35 thousand people are registered on one of the main Russian-language community reservation sites, and this figure is growing steadily.

They explain their love for the children's animated series by the presence in the animated series of an indescribable plot of the animated series, excellent humor, excellent musical component and deep ideals of friendship, which in their opinion this animated series cultivates.

However, there is a suspicion that in fact they are attracted to childish, infantile images of characters who seem sexually attractive to them. Usually they prefer to hide it, but some write openly about it. You can often see ponies in stockings and revealing poses. Here are screenshots from many popular booking communities from the social network “VKontakte”:

The kind, magical animated series “Friendship is Magic” or “My Little Pony” has won the hearts of many children. It tells about the fun adventures of adorable little ponies. The main characters correspond to the fourth generation of My Little Pony toys.

The action of the cartoon “Friendship is Magic” takes place in a fairy-tale country called Equestria. At the very beginning of the story, one of the main characters, Twilight Sparkle, who became seriously interested in magic and books, goes to Ponyville with her mentor, Princess Celestia. In this small town, which was founded by earth ponies, she will experience the amazing wonders of true friendship. Let's take a closer look at the main characters of the cartoon "My Little Pony".

Twilight Sparkle (Twilight Star)

Twilight is a unicorn pony, Twilight Star's signature sign is a red hexagonal star with white stars arranged in a circle. Twilight has extraordinary magical abilities. Her tree house is a whole library filled with books, which the pony spends hours studying. Twilight Star is also very punctual, neat, and never deviates from the rules. Her faithful assistant is baby Spike, a magical dragon. In the third season, Twilight returns special marks (cutie marks) to all her friends and receives the title of alicorn princess.

Applejack (Apple Pie)

Applejack is the name of an earth pony who is passionate about the family apple business. This is a real cowgirl, her cutie mark is three juicy red apples. Applejack's huge family owns large farmlands. “Apple Pony” loves to work and cultivate gardens, working for the benefit of the family. She also lovingly cares for her little sister, Apple Bloom. Applejack's friends can always rely on her; she is a very reliable and loyal friend.

Fluttershy (Shy Trembling)

The name Fluttershy exactly matches the character of a timid quiet person. The timid pegasus pony very rarely takes to the air, she has a lot of earthly affairs - Fluttershy loves to communicate with animals and directs her care to them, although this is usually not typical for pegasus. Her special abilities are eloquently evidenced by her cutie mark, which depicts three soft pink butterflies. The forest inhabitants - rabbits (and especially her pet rogue Angel), ferrets and songbirds - listen with great attention to Fluttershy's quiet voice. Despite her meek character, Fluttershy has enviable courage and is ready to defend justice in any situation.

Pinkie Pie (Pink Pie)

Pinkie Pie is not afraid to look funny and clumsy; this cheerful and active earth pony is always optimistic. She rarely stops talking and stands still; usually Pinkie sings songs and trots briskly. She has the amazing talent of organizing parties for friends, where everyone has fun with music, plays games and is treated to delicacies. Her love for sweets brought her to the Cakes' store, where she lives and sells sweets. In addition, she has a special “Pinky Sense”, that is, the ability to anticipate certain events.

Rainbow Dash (Rainbow Splash)

Rainbow from the cartoon “Friendship is Magic” is a mixture of pegasus and pony. This character cannot imagine himself without breathtaking flights. The Pegasus pony performs her dangerous tricks to the sounds of rock music; her “signature” number is called “Rainbow Strike”. Rainbow has lightning speed, this is where her talent lies. The distinctive sign of the Rainbow Splash is a pattern of rainbow lightning that appears from a cloud. In addition to her unique talent, Rainbow boasts an original style of appearance. Only she has a tail and mane painted in all the colors of the rainbow.

Rarity (Rarity)

Rarity is both a unicorn and a pony, she is passionate about fashion trends and sews clothes with great passion in her boutique. She highly values ​​style, grace and neatness in everything. Thanks to her talent, Rarity from My Little Pony is able to find shining gems, which is why she has three sapphires on her cutie mark. This is a subtle nature with a complex mental organization, who takes on any job and is even ready to make sacrifices for the sake of friends or in the fight for her ideals of beauty. Rarity, a Persian cat named Opal, or Opalescence, lives under the same roof as a unicorn pony.

Spike (Spike)

Spike the dragon is still very small, but he can hardly be called a child. He feels great in the company of ladies and amuses them with his jokes and antics. Unlike the hardworking Rainbow and Applejack, Spike is not averse to being lazy and taking a nap; his favorite pastime is commenting on everything that happens with humor. But the dragon also loves helping his friends; he always carries out Twilight’s instructions: for example, sending letters or sorting books in the library. Spike has an unconditional love for Rarity.

The world in the cartoon "My Little Pony" is populated by a huge number of heroes. Spike, Rarity, Twilight, Rainbow, Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Fluttershy are just the main characters. Each of them has its own character and unique abilities. All pony girls have a cutie mark that matches their name and talent.

Prepared by Katerina Vasilenkova

It is with her arrival in the town of Ponyville in Equestria that this story begins. She has a lilac color and a blue mane with pink stripes. If at the very beginning Sparkle was an introverted pony who was only interested in studying, then in Ponyville she makes friends: Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy, and reveals her friendly and kind character. Sparkle is always ready to give good advice to her friends. She is also the calmest and most rational of the whole group, and is also distinguished by her straightforwardness.

Another important trait of her character is skepticism. She is distrustful of everything supernatural, and even when she encounters evidence, she still remains skeptical and tries to refute it. Let's say she declares that all Pinky's predictions are nothing more than a coincidence, even though they come true over and over again. And with all her skepticism, it is she who is the element of magic.

Applejack

This pony works at the Apple Alley farm and mainly grows apples, of course. She represents the element of honesty, always ready to help those in need and helps her sister Apple Bloom and friends. She has several main distinctive features: firstly, she has a huge appetite, she is able to eat anything and as much as she wants; secondly, her stubbornness, which sometimes leads her to arguments and even cunning, which is unbearable for such an honest pony, so she is always the first to apologize.

Applejack doesn't care what she looks like, and she's never afraid to get dirty. Rarity is horrified by her manners when she eats with her mouth open, enters the house with dirty hooves, and most importantly - oh horror! – does not make the bed. She hates things that she calls “girly,” like ball gowns, and wears a cowboy hat and wears her mane in a ponytail.

Represents the element of fidelity. Her loyalty is tested more than once, but she always remains faithful to her friends. She also has other qualities, for example, a competitive spirit, because of which she often enters into competitions, and according to her own statement, she hates losing most of all. In addition, she is self-confident, sometimes even impudent, and is very fond of practical jokes.

Pinkie Pie

This pink pony works in a candy store and throws parties. She is always cheerful, optimistic and chatty, embodying the element of laughter. It is she who usually defuses tense situations with her funny antics, and often does things that baffle her friends, and most of all the rational Sparkle, which is why she is not always taken seriously.

Fluttershy

A shy golden-pink pegasus pony who embodies the element of kindness. Her timidity is so great that when she first appeared, she could not even say her name loud enough for Twilight Sparkle to understand it, and often hides her face under her mane. However, she loves animals very much, and she and Twilight manage to find a common language with the help of Spike, Twilight's pet.

Rarity

Designer and seamstress, runs her own fashion store, Boutique Carousel. Representing the element of generosity, she is distinguished by great elegance and love of luxury, she takes her appearance very seriously, representing the complete opposite of Applejack, and her manner of speaking is characterized by great stiltedness.
