My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Rainbow Rocks (2014)

There are far better animated shows out there than My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic currently running. There's Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, Rick and Morty, Bob's Burgers, the second half of Bojack Horseman, I could go on.

But really, the show and its two movie spin-offs should be appreciated for what they succeed in doing - entertaining children and parents while teaching them lessons on how to be a responsible person rather than simply selling toys.

Take Rainbow Rocks for example, in which the villain from the previous film has changed sides completely and struggles to get the past out of her and other people's memories. Fortunately, there are people who do forgive her and help her to blow the doubters away. While it starts off with a dull tone and the rest is nothing amazing, it is what it is - cute, wholesome family entertainment with good morals, well-developed characters and hardly any blockbuster trash.

Of course, a substantial amount of the "basement dwellers" who watch this show for its jokes and action are sure to ignore this message and continue dissing ethnicities and haters, and dreaming of marrying these characters in their horse forms. Man, am I glad to only kinda like this show in its current status.
