Honest Apple (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic)

"Yeah, no, teach. I didn't do my assignment last night. That's because I'm not interested in what has already done. Only what will exist, IN THE FUTURE. (signs of multiple punishments surrounding Mr. Enter.)"

- — The Mysterious Mr. Enter giving out his personal opinions on "Honest Apple"

Honest Apple is a episode from Season 7 of mh:besttvshows:My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.

Plot
Applejack learns how to be more tactful towards others when she is asked to participate as a judge in a fashion show, and her blunt opinions are not received well.

Why It's Not Honest

 * 1) First of all, the episode does a horrible job on criticism because episodes like Stranger Than Fan Fiction and other episodes executed the concept way better.
 * 2) Applejack is far too out of character because she criticizes the designers for doing their best on the clothes and she came off as very disrespectful to Strawberry Sunrise when she doesn’t like apples and also kidnaps the designers for the fashion show.
 * 3) Rarity is also unlikable because she is dumb for picking Applejack and forces her to go, then immediately blames her for ruining the show, even though it’s partly her fault.
 * 4) * While she has her reasons for doing so (Applejack can has a good eye for practicality when it comes to clothes), the idea of Rarity having Applejack, a tomboy pony who really isn't into fashion, serves as a judge in a fashion show is a very dumb idea.
 * 5) Some of the criticisms can be offensive because Applejack said the dress look depressing, which could be offensive to goth people.
 * 6) Even though Applejack was not respecting Strawberry’s opinion, She was also unlikable about she made fun of Applejack liking apples and being cruel to her.
 * 7) * The character of Strawberry Sunrise herself basically is a demonstration of one thing Friendship is Magic tends to do wrong: a pony learning a lesson by having someone else act like her to hammer it in. Just like in "The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well" and "28 Pranks Later", Rarity using Strawberry Sunrise's hatred of apples on Applejack is basically characters acting like jerks to teach someone else a lesson about her jerkish behavior.
 * 8) It feels like it wants to paint Applejack just as the bad guy for going to the fashion show, even though Rarity pushes her into something she doesn’t like.
 * 9) The "everyone wins" ending defeats the whole purpose of Applejack even serving as a judge in the first place.

Redeeming Qualites

 * 1) Pinkie Pie is the only likable character in this episode.
 * 2) Rarity's guitar playing to let out some of the pent up rage.
 * 3) Some moments are funny like Applejack and Strawberry’s harsh roasts to them.
 * 4) The episode ends off a good note.
 * 5) There’s a good moral as you should support someone’s hard work.

Reception
Although it received a 6.7/10 rating on IMDB. The episode received overwhelming negative reviews from fans and critics.
