It was okay.
But not as good as it was hyped up to be.
I didn't really enjoy the character, and the story didn't make much sense to me.

Yeah, I think they could've added a bit more around the end.

Did I flip my tables, Last? Yes, but not for the reason I thought I would.
They hyped and hyped and hyped this up to be awesome, and we got... this.
I'm not going to talk about the animation or voice quality/sounds because it's a hell of a lot better than anything I could manage, I'm going to talk about what I do know:
The character and the story.

- Snowdrop Review:
***WARNING WARNING WARNING, NEGATIVE REVIEW INCOMING***
It hurt to watch. The premise was good, but I personally believe it was pulled off badly.
As far as Snowdrop goes as a character:
They tried way too hard to make her "cute", and it ended up being grating and annoying. The number of shy-cute characters that exist, especially in this fandom, is ridiculous, and them adding on another was horrible. To me, she basically seemed like a blind version of Fluttershy:
- She was way too shy and quiet.
- She talked EXACTLY the same way.
- She was picked on for not being able to do anything right.
I'm fine with Fluttershy's character (somewhat), but if you're going to make an original character, it's generally inadvisable to copy a canon character to the letter. The only difference was that Snowdrop was blind and different colors.
The premise of the story I didn't mind, but the delivery was... pathetic.
Yes, I know they only made it 15 minutes long, but even in the time they had it was poorly executed.
Introduce shy main character, okay, that's fine, that's how a story should start. Give her a problem, okay, good job (ignoring that they made her the incredibly overused 'shy-girl with no friends'). Have her sitting outside sad and not knowing what to do...and then... have her all of a sudden know what to do because of a flashback? Yes, flashback is sometimes good for stuff. In this situation, it would have been good if her mother had passed away or something, but her mom was alive. They could have just had her mother come out to comfort her and not even bother with the damn flashback. It was just a pointless addition designed to further 'cutsey' the character who was already giving me hives. Then our character discovers her solution and does it, great job, you've followed the outline of a proper story! And now she shows up and gives a... horrifically written and forced speech that shoves the moral of the story into your face so hard I think it broke my nose. Yes, that is how MLP usually does it, but it does it in the form of a letter, making it easier to take and get the message. But (be honest), when was the last time somebody her age actually had thoughts so deep they could deliver that speech without even planning a little bit of it ahead of time?
And the ending. Once again suspending belief that Luna and Celestia even remember who Snowdrop was (apparently they have some of the worst selective memory of ALL TIME), it was painful to watch. Not in the 'oh it was so sad it hurt' kind of way; no, it was in the 'they tried so hard to make it sad I wanted to pull my eyes out' kind of way.
Now that that's out of the way, I know why it hurt me so bad: It's a perfect example of why you DON'T make a story around a lesson or a theme. You make the story around the CHARACTER so it will actually flow naturally. They wanted to make their point and tell this story, so they created Snowdrop to fit into their little play instead of making the story around her like you're supposed to.
Okay, rant over, I hope I didn't ruin it for anyone. (Honestly, that's not my goal, I just had to vent after watching... whatever the fuck that was)

A few things.
1. I'll be almost exclusively on my phone for a while.
2. I like roseluck too.
3. If anyone wants to rp with my characters just tell someone who has me on Skype.

I'm %$^@# awesome!
We have device, which is controlled through remote IR control. But this control were broken...so we pluged-in keyboard (it have USB port) and in ~40 minutes pin-poined all important key combinations and forced this $^%# to work.
Also.
When I've went to work in the morning, I had wind and rain to the face. Right now...IT'S ^%#$& snow and it's 0.5 meter thick. And it'll get only worse....feels like spring.

Rarity must know that a comb and Shampoo would be more efficient weapons in her battle against crabs.
It's not the first time she's faced this issue.

Why must you do this.
In other news, due to it being a half-snowday, nobody came to school. There's five people in my 30 person math class.

I do believe it is due to the fact that it is so easy/fun to mess with you.

I'm sure you would, Scyto. Alas, I don't have access to my .gif library either.

Afternoon, guys.
I watched this Snowdrop thing that everyone seems to be going on about. It wasn't bad for a fan project, I suppose, but definitely over-hyped. I'd give it a 6/10, at best.

Hey Mags, I'm not sure if it was over hyped. I've only heard about it a couple of times myself.
Still I can agree that it wasn't very good.

Probably should've clarified (see, this is why I don't review things, other than 'this is good/bad/okay').
By over-hyped, I meant that a lot of people seem to be praising it as one of the best things that the fandom has done to date, when it clearly isn't. It's not terrible, it's just...not great.
