  • Subtle Double-take: The Practicality of Rarity


    "Honest Apple" is an entire episode dedicated to Applejack's pragmatic honesty pitted against the world of designer clothes. The premise of the episode is funny enough with a clear message: don't be too critical. There's just one thing that intrigues me: Rarity's confidence in picking Applejack as a judge. Rarity, arguably Equestria's most fashion forward pony, simply thinks it's a good idea. So, was Rarity's decision based completely on a plot convenience?

    Trying my hoof at editorial writing for the first time here on Equestria Daily, I'm Platonic and I'd like to take an avant-garde look at "Honest Apple" and everyone's favorite fashion pony. A look into Rarity's motivations this episode after the break.
