I wanna watch MLP - does it matter where I start?
I wanna watch MLP - does it matter where I start?
Nothing to add really. I enjoy the visuals and the fluffy vibes the show gives off ~
Have never really watched it though...
Is there a good place to start, or does it not matter?
Most episodes aren't syndicated, but you should watch the seasons in order.
Release order (Friendship is Magic):
- Season 1
- Season 2
- Season 3
- Equestria Girls
- Season 4
- Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks
- Season 5
- Equestria Girls: Friendship Games
- Season 6
- Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree
- Season 7/Various Equestria Girls shorts
- My Little Pony: The Movie
- Season 8
- Rainbow Roadtrip Special
- Season 9
The Equestria Girls movies are optional. The events are never explicitly brought up in the show.
You missed Equestria Girls: Better Together season 1 and 2 and minor movies like Equestria Girls: Sunset's Backstage Pass.
Am I correct in assuming you're talking about the newer stuff (i.e. anything after 2010)? Because then you should start with MLP Friendship is Magic Season 1 Episode 1 and watch chronologically.
Start with the first two episodes of season 1; you need them for worldbuilding. Strange to say about a show like this, I know! But it's true. If I were you, I might consider skipping to Dragonshy; it was my favourite episode in s1. Then maybe Winter Wrap-up, Call of The Cutie, and Look Before You Sleep. If you're loving the show, then just watch it all! But if you didn't find anything to like in those episodes, give up. MLP isn't for you.
