Really? I’ll have to see it to believe it.
 
TBH, the most obviously autistic character I’ve ever seen in TV (who wasn’t confirmed to be autistic) was Dale Cooper, so I might have to watch She-Ra to see how she stacks up.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Entrapta is infinitely lower functioning than Dale Cooper could ever dream of being. Dale Cooper might have Asperger’s, Entrapta is full all autistic. Most of the drama of her character is her utter inability to comprehend the people around her and near total lack of empathy. She joined the bad guys pretty much by accident just because their stuff was cooler, built doomsday machines for them because it was a fun way to pass the afternoon, and struggled to comprehend why the good guys might be upset about this. Even when people are actively trying to kill them they constantly have to stop her wandering into gunfire in order to inspect an interesting looking rock.

@Philweasel  
Oh, so she’s full-blown autistic then, not just high-functioning. Cool.
 
…Wait, so they made the autistic person one of the villains? Hmmm. I don’t know how to feel about that.

@TheHappySpaceman  
The show is very kind to it’s villains, and she’s mostly there because the Horde supports her hyper fixation, also she wants to fuck a cyborg alien bat dude, probably on top of some new doom robot they built together because Entrapta doth not care about being horny on main,

@TheHappySpaceman  
Well, villain is overstating it. She didn’t even notice she was with the bad guys. As far as she was concerned Scorpia was nicer and more supportive than anyone else she knew, Catra got her whatever tech and resources she wanted and kept giving her interesting problems to solve, and Hordak was almost as smart as her and seemed lonely.
 
And to her credit, she expressed more objections to Catra’s “blow up the world, because Adora likes Glimmer better than me” plan than Scorpia did. And during the fifth season pretty much every problem the good guys encounter is solved by throwing her at it. And ironicly her lack of empathy meant she just generally defaulted to trying to be nice to even the most terrible people, and ended up making them not so terrible in the process.  

 
Seriously, Entrapta’s amazing. I think everyone includes her high up in their favorite character list.  

 
You can tell me what you want, but a woman who flirts with technology as much as she does is worth any kind of worship. She speaks to my deeper Tank-loving German soul. I have the same look whenever I see an Panzerkampfwagen IV or a Panzerkampfwagen VI “Tiger” Ausf. E ;-)

@DarkObsidian  
I have to admit, some of her… noises, and expressions, often feel rather inappropriate for the target audience.
 
Hey, whatever works for her. Honestly the rest of the cast could learn a thing or two from her when it comes to acknowledging their sexual preferences.

Guys I know that this might sound the silliest thing ever but…:
 
Mane 6 VS Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles VS Best Friend Squad (including Catra now that she’s part of it) VS Team RWBY. Who would win?

@TheHappySpaceman
 
The right term your looking for is “ovaries”.

@Background Pony #6026  
That’s not a bad match up.
 
The Mane 6 are straight out of their league though. Sure they’re very tough, and powerful, but most of them have no combat training, and they never fight as a team like the others do.
 
RWBY has straight up the best teamwork. They’re a well oiled machine, and Weiss gives them amazing mobility.
 
Best Friend Squad has… not great teamwork. The amount of times Bow has been left standing there shouting at them about THE GODDAMN PLAN GUYS defies count, and more than half the team actively despise Catra. Upgraded She-Ra is really powerful though, Catra and Glimmer aren’t pushovers, and Bow is a really good strategist and a decent warrior himself.
 
I don’t feel I know enough about the Turtles to comment.
 
Honestly… RWBY. They’re really powerful individually, they’re tactically flexible, and they have great teamwork. Honestly even individually they’re on a kind of scary level, they’ve repeatedly been slammed through reinforced concrete without their aura breaking which is durability none of the others can boast. Hordak was disabled by an impact Yang would have shrugged off without pausing for breath.

@DarkObsidian  
…Ahegao
 
@Hali the Emoji girl  
LOL, thanks.
 
@Philweasel  
@Thanotos Omega  
I see. So she’s working with the villains, but she’s not exactly evil, or something?

@Philweasel  
I think it will com down to Twi and Glimmer, if Twi can use her mass hold spell then the mane 6 will win but if Glimmer can just port out of if she will run roughshod over most of the other fighters, she has insane mobility and fire power, only the current versions of the TMNT would even be relevant in such a battle,

@TheHappySpaceman  
Entrapta isn’t on the hero or villain side, she’s on the science side, but she does care about her friends, and would probably have stuck with the horde till the end because of Hordak,

Remember that Crash Bandicoot commercial where a guy in a Crash costume drives to Nintendo HQ to talk shit to Mario, saying that “his days are numbered”?
 
Well, Crash went on a downward spiral after Crash Team Racing, while Mario is still going strong.

SHIT, I posted in the wrong thread.

@Background Pony #6026  
Which Turtles team? Comics, ’87 show, 2012, Rise, Next Mutation, movie, CG movie?

Please delete my last posts.

@lasty
 
2012.

@Philweasel
 
I wouldn’t say that the Mane 6 are out of their league. Twilight has her powerful magic and flight, RD has her speed, AJ her super strength, Pinkie her super randomness (which is very unpredictable) and Rarity has her diamond based magic. Only Fluttershy would be out of the league, but with the help of her animals she could stand a chance.

Did you hear about Toucan Sam’s new design?
 
And of course, manchildren are throwing a tantrum because a company had the audacity to change the design of a mascot from their childhood, not realizing that the previous design wasn’t even Toucan Sam’s original one, and companies change the design of their logos and mascots all the time.

@Background Pony #BAB2  
you mean this?  

Why are people making such a big deal over a cereal mascot?

@Background Pony #BAB2
 
@northern haste  
i mean….  
it’s not a great change.

@Angrybrony  
Still just a cereal mascot

@Angrybrony  
That seems like a huge regression.
 
Like, I would expect that on a box designed a few decades ago.
 
Or a knockoff.
