You're referring to the Elements of Harmony right?

It's mainly her Manehattan-ness.

In hindsight, I could have made it clearer in my initial post.

Yep. It feels like it went by too quick though. Only one episode plot, when it feels like it could have been more.

Yeah, the first two episodes are considered by many to be mediocre at best.

MLP has a current total (that I've seen at least) of four two part adventure arcs. three being the season premieres and another being a season finale. Now this is just my opinion but the absolute best of the four is the premiere of the second season which is the next one you'll see.

However, for the time being I hope you enjoy the rest of season 1!

Don't worry.
It gets better.

There's a large genre disparity between the adventure based "Friendship is Magic" 2 parter and the rest of the series (Outside of the S2 beginning and end and the S3 premiere)

Better... I was OK with how it was. Better is going to be GREAT!!!

Wonderful!

Wait until you get to A Dog and Pony Show and Party of One.

Rather, depending on your personal favorite character,
Fluttershy - Dragonshy
Pinkie Pie - Party of One
Rarity - Suited For Success
Rainbow Dash - Sonic Rainboom
Applejack - Fall Weather Friends
Twilight - Every episode

:lol

You know what I just noticed. Why doesn't anyone talk about Spike? Spike is awesome!
