I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of Fluttershy.
But to say she's useless and has no depth? ridiculous statement is ridiculous. |

No more than any other character in the show. |

I have to agree that she's one-dimensional even by the standards of a little girls' cartoon show. She gets by on being adorable, and every single one of her development episodes is "Fluttershy is shy".
Useless, nah. She's shown she can be pretty damn useful when necessary. She's just not an interesting character. |

I'm a Fluttershy fan, and I'd been fine with this troll if they were just trying to get Fluttershy fans mad, but this is just insulting to the creators of the show. And as we all know they are f*yay*ing amazing! |

Pffft, trust me. She has depth. I would know. Wink wink nudge nudge...grab grab penetrate penetrate. *Runs* |

I don't like Fluttershy either. She's cute and adorable and kind and all the other things I hate in a character. That's not to say I hate those things, it's just when it's to that degree. She seems like the girl who is pretty and nice but somehow always has some involuntary attraction to douche bag boyfriends. She gets caught in a web of abuse and all around shit-storms, which she makes herself every time. Then you(me) being a naturally nice guy (a habit you try desperately to break) always has to be there to make futile attempts at getting it through her head that she has to stop getting into relationships like this and how one of these days that guy is going to kill her. Of course she doesn't listen. Then a week later you're on your way home when you see a cop car and an ambulance at her place of residence. Her ass-hole boyfriend is in cuffs being taken to a cop car. You slow down (we all know what you're thinking will come out of the door next) and see a stretcher with a body bag on it (guess who). You(me) drive on home with your prediction on what would happen exactly as you knew it would go. The only thing you missed was that it happened precisely 1 hour and 15 minutes earlier than expected. You get to your house make a bowl of cereal(you have "better" stuff to eat, but you prefer cereal over anything else), lay on your couch, and turn on the TV just in time to catch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic on The Hub. |

^so you're saying you think that fucking rabbit will one day go too far |
| Anonymous #1197979 3 months ago |
That fucking rabbit already went too far ages ago. I don't give a shit about Fluttershy, but I'd love to see that little fucker get some comeuppance. Karma Houdinis don't sit well with me in shows like this. |

I'd argue that Fluttershy has quite a bit of development. Unlike the typical "d'aww, she's shy" character, she's a genuine introvert who's fine in her surroundings--see "May the Best Pet Win". Like a mother bear, she's generally fine, but drill her enough and she springs back a monster. Is she--or any character--as developed as characters on higher-quality shows intended specifically for adult audiences? Of course not. But it's not supposed to be life-changing, merely a light-hearted, generally optimistic and colorful show which, unlike most cartoons, actually has real effort put into it. |

She may be a "genuine introvert who's fine in her surroundings", but I have a hard time giving her credit for the MtBPW example.
Yeah, she can function when she's at her own house with a close childhood friend. That's damning by faint praise, considering she is utterly incapacitated in almost every other situation that requires her to do any more than "talk to small animal". She's not a bad character at all, and I can enjoy a simple character immensely, but it's odd to see how underdeveloped she is when placed next to some of the others. She serves her purpose, and I like her, but she seems to be more of a plot device than a character. |

I used to be a beat cop a long time ago. And I’d get called out on domestic disputes all the time. Hundreds, probably, over the years. But there was this one guy — this one piece of shit — that I will never forget. Angel. He looked like Bo Svenson. You remember him? Walking Tall? You don’t remember? No. Anyway. Big bunny. But his wife … or whatever she was, his lady … was real small. Like a bird. Wrists like branches. Anyway, my partner and I got called out there every weekend, and one of us would pull her aside and say ‘come on, tonight’s the night we press charges.’ And this wasn’t one of those deep-down he-loves-me set-ups — we get a lot of those — but not this. This girl was scared. She wasn’t going to cross him, no way, no how. Nothing we could do but pass her off to the EMT’s, put him in a car and drive him downtown, throw him in the drunk tank. He sleeps it off, next morning out he goes. Back home. But one night, my partner’s out sick, and it’s just me. And the call comes in and it’s the usual crap. Broke her nose in the shower kind of thing. So I cuff him, put him in the car and away we go. Only that night, we’re driving into town, and this sideways asshole is in my back seat humming ‘Danny Boy.’ And it just rubbed me wrong. So instead of left, I go right, out into nowhere. And I kneel him down, and I put my revolver in his mouth, and I told him, ‘This is it. This is how it ends.’ And he’s crying, going to the bathroom all over himself, swearing to God he’s going to leave her alone. Screaming … as much as you can with a gun in your mouth. And I told him to be quiet. I needed to think about what I was going to do here. And of course he got quiet. Goes still. And real quiet. Like a dog waiting for dinner scraps. And we just stood there for a while, me acting like I’m thinking things over, and Prince Charming kneeling in the dirt with shit in his pants. And after a few minutes I took the gun out of his mouth, and I say, ‘So help me if you touch her again I will such-and-such and such-and-such and blah blah blah blah blah.’ Walt: “So, just a warning?” Mike: Of course. Just trying to do the right thing. But two weeks later he killed her. Of course. Caved her head in with the base of a Waring blender. We got there, there was so much blood you could taste the metal. The moral of the story is: I chose a half measure, when I should have gone all the way. I’ll never make that mistake again. |

Disagreed. She is a fully realized character. This fandom being hyper analytical isn't doing anyone any favors. |
| Anonymous #1201135 3 months ago |
I agree that the over-analysis is pointless and all.
But claiming she's "a fully realized character" while also telling us not to analyze it is silly. If a character doesn't hold up to analysis, it's not a strong character. You could claim Stephenie Meyer writes engaging, interesting characters as long as you forbid people from pointing out why they're not. It's a weak argument. "I disagree with you because you've thought about this, and it conflicts with my initial perception." |
