I have to admit that I was skeptical about this series.
I mean, when I was a little kid, I used to watch cartoons as "Transformers", "G.I.Joe", "The Thundercats" or similar stuff, but I never cared about the "My Little Pony" cartoon. I am still completely indifferent to that franchise for that matter, but since there was lot of hype and attention given to this series, I decided to give it a chance.
My first impression after seeing a couple of episodes was:"Okay, the animation and the characters of this new cartoon are much better than the ones from the previous series, but I still don't see what's the big deal about this thing." Then I watched more episodes, and I started to like the series. Even when this show isn't something incredibly complex or "deep", at least it is quite enjoyable to watch and the characters are likable. The animation is cute (Definitely is a huge improvement over the mediocre animation of all the previous "My Little Pony" cartoons) without being great. For what it is, it's pretty well done.
Even when I don't consider myself a die-hard fan of this series, I consider that the success that it had and all the hype that it receives from the Internet, was well deserved. After all, this series was able to turn a lame franchise into something actually worth-watching.
