Fluttershy is the bold one because she's willing to move outside her comfort zone. Her father is/was a timid office worker her mother is either a stay at home mom or elementary school teacher and her brother is afraid of growing up and taking on responsibilities. Fluttershy moved out of Cloudsdale and now lives in a cottage near a dangerous forest. That's pretty bold.
Joshua Blitzer That makes sense.
Though she has the advantage of almost never crying. That's why it's so horrible to make her cry. She's still strong, just scard.
Yeah. Basically
you are a bold one
How lovely, and even thought provoking. I admit, being married to my Lady who shares so much in common with Fluttershy's personality, I couldn't help but think of her when you were discussing what motivates Fluttershy and how she finds joy in life. Thank you kindly for the character study Silver :)
Now go snuggle your waifu dr wolf
DRWolf001 what a cute couple :D
Mrs. Wolf is your Fluttershy, Doc. I hope you two are happy together all your lives. X)
I get you a big hugs DRWolf001 you're awesome and very cool 😊😀
You're married?
She feels more realistic to me than any of the other main cast members, she has to move slow, she has to fail doing the same thing to realize what she's doing wrong, she is genuine to her values and she is strong in ways that even the greatest magic couldn't be. Fluttershy will always be my favorite character, I relate to her on a deeply personal level and see myself in her, so it feels good to see her grow as a character now that I've overcome my own anxiety and insecurity.
Also she's adorable.
That always helps.
Fluttershy is definitely underrated!!!
FlutterShy's friends consists of:
Her hipster brother
A full grown firebreathing dragon
An excited violent bull
The spirit/god of choas
Fluttershy is indeed an example of true kindness and genorisity, pressured by the world around her, yet never allowing others to manipulte or alter her core values, Fluttershy herself may never change in terms of her very nature, but her self-esteem continues to develop, thus allowing her to speak up when a situation calls for it, especially if it goes against her core beliefs, I hear of those who think of Fluttershy as nothing more than a doormat, and weak, to which I disagree, that same kindness is what I believe keeps her ahead of her friends, even when she is put in a situation where others disagree with those core beliefs, she is never swayed for personal gain, she has spoken up when she feels it is needed, and displays a difference in bravery then simply physical strength, but strength of heart and self, Fluttershy makes a difference without going against those core beliefs
In short: Fluttershy's kind nature is what makes her such an endearing character, and why so many people/ponies/animals etc. Myself included; gravitate toward her, being true to herself, yet able to inspire those around her, plus Fluttershy is SO FLIPPIN ADORABLE
That's why I love FlutterCord. They encourage one another to grow and improve as time goes on, encouraging healthy character development. After seeing the two's interactions with one another, I would definitely not mind the two being paired up canonically. The pair would make for an interesting friendship lesson.
Fluttercord is best ship
They’re just friends
She just walks in at the wrong time and blushes very brightly. XD
Then again she becomes so flustered she can emit heat strong enough to roast a marshmallow. (rofl)
Fluttershy represents a very good mentality of nurturing and encouragement that is capable of correcting truly bad behavior, while pointing others to the correct behavior without tearing them apart in the process.
EDIT: I think Celestia has similar capabilities to Fluttershy, when she actually gets a chance to deal with other ponies, though via different methods.
Pretty good video Silver Quill. Fluttershy is one of the more underrated characters out of the mane six mainly due to how others focus on her external traits that can be seen rather than internal ones that need to be understood in order to be seen. Fluttershy is willing to step outside her comfort zone at times if it means motivating someone to improve themselves or others. Fluttershy has motivated others from animals, to ponies and even the embodiment of chaos himself which shows how far she has come as a character by showing others how to improve because she's improved herself.
i like angel but he is like a child and while he shows understands/care to fluttershy at one time he will be bratty and difficult at another
I too have a soft spot for Angel. Yeah, he's a spoiled diva but he does love Fluttershy and she straightened him out over the whole salad issue. And he's freakin' cute.
@@kaleidoscopeeyes1184 I like Angel for the exact same reasons
Huh... that final tidbit on "if you ever fall in love"... that is actually what I was looking for to describe something unrelated. A mighty thanks, Silver Quill.
The idea of seeing Fluttershy have a love life sounds just too cute.
You know, I think this has been a long time coming, but I just have to say it. I subbed to Silver for the explosions, I stayed for the heart.
He takes the very essence of slap-stick comedy and somehow is able to combine and infuse that into some of the most intimately sensitive, thought-provoking ideas and analysis.
I see the world of fiction and story-telling as a tapestry, or a length of fabric. Each thread is a minute detail that while at first may seem insignificant, over time they become part of a much grander picture. And Silver is one of the best needle-worker's I've seen thus far.
With a voice that turns twine to silk and dull into deep, he is able to, in essence, re-use the very excess scrap of the medium My Little Pony and spin it into wonderful fabrics the way only a true craftsman could.
I tip my hat to you, you magnificent cousin of Buckbeak.
Funny. Going off Persona, Fluttershy would be the Priestess. However, Persona tends to interpret the Arcana archetypes differently than normal. And apparently the Priestess is the one that differs the most between common and Persona interpretations.
I like to think Fluttershy is the most powerful of the Mane6. She not only has great influence and charisma, but she once showed herself to be stronger than Dash. She has the most powerful being in Equestria as a close friend, and the trust of the principality's great monarchs.
Additionally I would agree that Fluttershy would never think about misusing her power. Another character who is very similar to her, not only in being a Shrinking Violet who learns an blossoms, but also in power dynamic, is Nodoka Miyazaki.
Nodoka is from 'Magister Negi Magi,' or 'Negima.' She starts with slight androphobia, and is extremely shy around others. She is also on the short side and does not compare physically to most of the rest of her class -- but she has tons of hidden power due to all of her activities with the Library Exploration Club, including high stamina and trap detection skills. She brings those into play, together with her determination, in order to do everything she can in order to help Negi after she develops a crush on him. This includes while she and her best friend Yue Ayase trained under him to learn magic, although Nodoka completely lacked any magic or martial affinity, unlike Yue in magic or Fei Ku in Chinese martial arts. But the other thing Nodoka DID have was her magical Artifact, _Diarium Ejus_, which displayed the target's thoughts in picture diary form -- very useful in combat so long as Nodoka could get the info to Negi.
Nodoka would never misuse her mind reading abilities on her own, although vampire sorceress and classmate Evangeline does manage her to use it so she can learn about Negi's tragic past. It's really the only moment one should be able to count as weakness or a loss on Nodoka's part, especially since she later managed to confront Dynames, one of the enemy's stronger lieutenants, in her Crowning Moment of Awesome -- a scene that STILL sends chills down my spine when I think about it, like right now.
And just like Nodoka, Fluttershy would never misuse her charisma, influence, and compassion to her own advantage. Nearly all of her feats were done for her friends or family, after all. Of course if she did start pursuing power, I think she'd be nigh-unstoppable.
warning, warning, your fluttershy is overheating! do not use your overheating fluttershy for making smores or cooking eggs over easy/scrambled
well what if I want to
Ha funny
Also that would taste awful
And yet people call us weak for being attracted to the kind and introverted. Well of course i am. honesty demands it.
Very interesting again!
I didn't understand the word , what is Rarity's archetype?
the Medial (or mediumistic
And with Season 6, she is now the best standing Mane 6 member at the moment in my perspective with Pinkie close behind because of not many great showings as Fluttershy as of late. Hope Season 7 can bring more outta Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.
She had a great showing in most of season 6, so maybe the writers decided to lay off a bit in season 7?
Healthy interaction. Would love to see more of that for Spike.
2:37. Fluttershy blushing is adorable.
So Fluttershy is kinda, sorta, very stylized version of Jeanne Antoinette Poisson.
Now we need an episode where she dates the Tenth Doctor!!
Every few seasons, for few minutes in one episode, through her fireplace.
I understood that reference!
Fluttershy is like Luigi...In a way about the shyness. Both her and the Green Plumber had to deal with their shyness a lot and still they both pull through their hardships.
That is why I love Luigi more than Mario.
And I don't hate Fluttershy, just don't care for her much.
rcshaggy 7 oh, so that's why #luigishy is a thing.
yup and they have even in common the "Death stare".
I'd ship it....... I have problems :\
rcshaggy 7 Luigi and shy? What? Don't get me wrong, Luigi is a scaredy cat and has self-esteem issues much like Fluttershy, but he's nowhere near shy. In fact, HE'S the attention seeker of the two brothers. In Super Paper Mario, he plays the tough guy for a few Goombas who pretend to be his fans as well as flat-out being an attention whore as Mr. L(though it's debatable how much of his personality that really was as he was brainwashed at that point in the game), in Paper Mario 2 he's more than happy to tell you his story with a few changes to make himself look better, in Superstar Saga Luigi tries very hard to be recognized by people(telling them he's "the great Luigi") and enjoys the attention the fangirls give him while Mario is clearly uncomfortable with it and in Bowser's Inside Story, he gladly takes credit after Mario lied to Starlow that the villains of the previous Mario&Luigi game were defeated by Luigi alone. Think about that: Mario saw how upset his brother was about Starlow's lack of respect for him and told a lie that takes credit away from himself so Luigi would gain her respect and feel better. That alone should disprove all those nasty claims that Mario abuses Luigi and wants all the attention for himself. In Paper Mario 2, it's even implied that being uncomfortable with too much personal attention is the reason why Mario doesn't talk a lot and is rather distant to most of the people he saves. However, Luigi seeking attention is entirely understandable because he's in his brother's shadow a lot which is neither his nor Mario's fault. People will always compare him to Mario and see that he screws up a lot, he's clumsy, he's easily scared, he's not as courageous and selfless as Mario is, at least not at first glance. In fact, in the Mario&Luigi games, the only people who actually respect Luigi are Mario, Peach and a few of the Toads like Toadsworth. Bowser for one doesn't even know his name in the first three games and just calls him "Green Mustache". A lot of the side characters poke fun at him too. Luigi wanting to be as great as his brother and looking for appreciation makes him all the more likable. And Mario himself is at his best when paired up with Luigi too, these two just belong together. Best Bros forever.
Luigi is shy? I guess they changed him compared to the old cartoon series then. But he was bold enough to knock up Peach, which led to Rosalina.
DID Discord change Fluttershy that second time (opposite universe)? I personally like to think she was playing along because she's come to know him that well.
She gave a shocked impression at what she had just said when he fearfully snapped the universe back so I doubt it was her faking it. My reading was that what she said were the bluntly honest unfiltered negative thoughts she was having, he did not so much corrupt her as turn off the filter we all have between thought and speech.
Well when Discord changed things back to normal she looked really shocked at what she had said, so I don't think she was simply playing along.
tenofprime And that's definitely what I'm getting for the common interpretation. Yet I think she comes off better the way I see that moment.
I always thought she was playing along, she was just shock at herself for yelling so much, lots of people get shocked over what they've just done, doesn't mean she was being controlled or influenced.
@@tenofprime
That's what I think too
2:41 great job Silver, you burned a horse.
I'll go into more detail about how surprisingly relatable Fluttershy’s brother, Zephyr Breeze, was to me (fear of failure) once you decide to review that episode specifically.
2:44 *Iron Will approves of his view.*
Don't mind me, still waiting for the next Season 5 episode review over here.
This is by far the best thing I have see come out of this retched fandom, good job!
Another thought provoking video on Fluttershy Silver, amazing ^^
Fluttershy is so much easier to define with the enneagram. She is a 2 "The Helper" with equally weak 1 and 3 wings. She is in the Heart Center with 3's and 4's where shame is her problem emotion. She is on the Positive Outlook Harmonic with 7's and 9's where she wants to believe the best in the world if she will help it towards that goodness. She is on the Compliance Social Type with 1's and 6's where she wants to be seen by society as good through being helpful. Finally, she is in the Rejection Object Relation with 5's and 8's where she thinks society will reject her if not for giving it her the single gift of her heart.
Her primary instinct is self-preservation, and her auxiliary is intimate. Her actions are typically to protect herself, even helping others. When that is not an issue, she is more interested in her close relationships rather than greater society.
This means her stress point is an 8 "The Challenger" and her security point is 4 "The Individualist". This is seen by her spontaneous aggression under stress and yet has creative pursuits like sewing and singing when safe within the citadel that is her cottage and its grounds.
where can i know where to put myself in the enneagram?
This really changed, how I view Fluttershy.. For the majority of the series, Fluttershy has been one of my least favorite ponies, because, well, as you mentioned yourself, she has acted more like a troupe, than an actual character. But I never really saw, how she affected her companions positively, aside from the obvious Discord, and Zephyr. Thank you for opening my eyes to Fluttershy's awesomeness :D
to make a long story short:
fluttershy is best waifu
#notaclopper
gigaswardblade
Don't you lie to us boy! We've seen your internet history.
Fluttershy is best waifu.
#totallyaclopper
There, FTFY.
@Princess Shelley how dare you
Lies make baby Jesus cry, gigaswardblade.
this is why Fluttershy is my second favorite pony and I'll be a roundabout for her kindness, weehoo!
i just stumbled upon this video in the recommendations and wow you did a great job at writing this! Not just about the pony, I learned more about storytelling & relationships in general. I relate a lot to fluttershy.
Absolutely love your work, man.
fluttershy is my favroute character for being so kind and have progress throughout darkness and circumstances but when i see her standing up for her freinds im inspired by her courage and determanation.
fluttershy made a mare friend during season 4 during. we get to see her till season 5
I love this series you have done. I love the introspection you have put into all of these personality types and how they fit into the quarternary. These have been informative, insiteful, funny, and all around a joy to watch. Keep up the amazing work.
Nice going Silver Quill you manage to turn Fluttershy into a red delicious apple
Ahh this was very thought-provoking. I hadn't even realized that up until Tree Hugger and minus the mane six, Fluttershy's roster had comprised mostly of males. It was nice looking into her character this way.
One of the best reviews I've ever seen. Made me feel all fuzzy and warm inside :D I want to show this to everyone I know! Silver Quill, you're awesome, really really awesome.
Fluttershy is best pony in my case and my favorite and seeing this and explaining how you see her like I do it's very heart warming
I love this video silver and 2 days before a great Fluttershy episode you brought me to tears at the end.
This video was so beautiful, the words you use, and the way to express yourself about Fluttershy and others characters is really mind opening, thank you for this awesome, great and beautiful videos as always!
This video showed me the true meaning of companionship. My friend Rachel... whom I used to be in love with... told me that she is like a combination of Fluttershy and Sunset Shimmer. I saw the Sunset in her before... but now I see the Fluttershy too. Thanks for letting me know the true nature of Fluttershy and what it really means to be a companion.
Another great video Silver! Definitely loved it, especially the bit with that little rascal Angel Bunny
I love your videos!!! The way you balance information and humor is fantastic, I have especially loved this "Mini Series" I suppose. It's helped me reach for goals. I can not express how much I love your humor, which doesn't come at anyone's cost! (Well, maybe your own...) Keep on keeping on, Silver!
Just about every time I watch one of your videos, I get the same warm feeling I had when I first admired MLP. You are an outstanding reviewer!
I love this! I've never considered this aspect of Fluttershy's character, and it really adds depth to her portrayal for me. Lovely job, Silver!
This was an awesome video! You really captured the essence. Here, have my subscription.
Great work with this After The Fact tribute to Fluttershy, Silver Quill! Can't wait for the next one! Keep up the hard work!
Fluttershy has always been one of m favorites, she truely has grown over the years.
awesome vid Sliver-Quill
I gotta love it when you put out a video like this. As a writer it helps me open my mind a bit more past the personality traits, and types I'm used to working with. It helps me see the sort of motivations behind character actions that readers can enjoy, and perhaps learn from themselves. I would never have learned about this stuff without you, and it even helps me balance out my rather negative views on society on a whole, so thanks for showing me a bit of light. KEEP GOING STRONG!!!!!!!
This was so great, thanks for making it.
Wow. What a well made and thought provoking video! This is my first analysis video (haven't been a brony for too long), and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I learned, not only about Fluttershy, but Jung's quaternary archetypes theory as well. I also loved the background music and animation. Thanks for the great video!
I love the credits in your videos, the song with the fanart is a wonderful mix
This was a very beautiful and thoughtful analysis of Fluttershy's character, and it summed up the reasons why she is my favorite pony!
I love all your videoes. Your funny, thought provoking and great. Keep up the amazing work.
these videos are still amazing
you know Flutts were never my favorite, but with this - I like her little bit more :-)
notification and I'm here in a heartbeat and I'm glad. it's always joyful to see SilverQuill After the Fact
I love this video and I love Fluttershy because I see myself in her. Growing up I was shy and timid but I have blossomed into who I am today. All thanks to the relationships I had growing up. Thanks Silver for having these thought provoking videos. I love them
you did good Silver. Keep on making things like this.
Thanks to you, Silver Quill, I like Fluttershy all the more and I now see a bit of myself in her as well.
A beautiful video, Silver. You do a fantastic job of bringing a tender and potentially grown-up topic to a level that all can understand, enjoy, and come to appreciate those in our lives that may have this archetype. I'm burning with curiosity about the other archetypes now. TO THE BOOKS!!! X)
one of your best one yet
So true what you said silver, and also your show was very funny, keep up the good work.
Loved the fan art and I loved it again. It was truly eye opening once again.
I really love these archtype videos because the break down the characters, and also are hugely educational on something I really didn't know that much about.
A SilverQuill video about Fluttershy? YAY!!
Fluttershy is my favorite of the Mane 6. I just like how her character develops throughout the series. Can't wait to see what Season 7 has in store for her and the rest of the cast.
Darn you, Silver!... for making me realize how embarrassingly much in common I have with Fluttershy xD
Seriously, I've never even considered that my personality could match Fluttershy's. At all. I always considered myself to be the most similar to Twilight out of the Mane Six... But really, the way you described the Hetaira archetype approaches relationships? That's me in a nutshell. Way to shatter my delusions, You Learned Loon :P
Silver Quill, you are by far the most organized and insightful analyst and writer in the fandom. Your studies and conclusions always add more to the community!
That was another great character analysis. :)
These archetypal studies are fascinating. Thank you for sharing them with us.
I loves these character archetype analysis videos, they are really interesting!!
Didn't know today was Arbor Day, think it kind of gets eclipsed by Earth Day nowadays. They both represent the same basic idea.
Also, I hope you weren't being serious about Pinkie Pie being the comic relief, because she really isn't. There are plenty of episodes that can attest to the fact that she's good for more than a laugh.
It's not my intention to dismiss Pinkie. It is true that I haven't heard people praise her for reasons outside of comedy on the majority, but I know what you mean when you say she has greater depth.
I'll be celebrating her in the future as well.
She is only comic relief depending on the context. She is the one who wants too make others happy and joking around can do that, but I've noticed her too bring happiness too others.
@@MLPSilverQuill
Question.. What are the passaive and agressive shadows of the companion called?
I loved this it was awesome I hope they show more of that side of fluttershy in the new season
Wonderful video Silver and I really did enjoy this Flutters video. But I do miss your reviews too. Talking about the same chars on their 'Days' well, it's really starting to get repetitive.
Makes me wonder what he'll have to talk about once he starts getting to characters he's already talked in depth about.
This was a lovely video.
Thank you for everything silver you have impacted my life more thsn anyone else has ever I am ever so greatful for your videos.
Fluttershy is, in some way, also the Companion to many male Bronies. True, in the series she has never broken through the fourth wall and spoken to them directly, but her actions can be an inspiration to her followers, and some of them may imagine her as a spirit that can talk to them, particularly those who see her as a waifu.
MLP-Silver-Quill, have you done a talk that focuses on the possible psychological relationships between the ponies and the Bronies or Pegasisters?
I love Fluttershy for her compassion and friendship toward beings like Discord.
What troubles me about her is her timidity and oftentime cowardice, as Rainbow once pointed out. Her fears toward Nightmare Night and dragons (despite standing up to one) are two of such examples.
She finds every little detail, from the decor to the most adorable of children's costumes, utterly "terrifying" about Nightmare Night. While I understand that some can go...a smidgen overboard on the fear factor.
Half the time, the holiday is safe and tame. As such, not a logical reason to hide under one's bed (snacks or no snacks.) As for dragons; while I agree that adult ones are big, tough, intimidating and dangerous.
She stood up to a dragon, went as far to yell at him square in the EYE. Yet...she is cowardly about witnessing a migration and fails to fulfill a promise she made to Rainbow. If I had to sit through a butterfly migration for a friend.
I would want that friend to accompany to the migration as well.
But all this is only my opinion. You're all welcome to approve or disapprove, if you wish
Happy Arbor Day Silver!😊
Who ever fluttershy's married would be lucky. She sternly talked to a dragon ( that she had a fear of, witch that would be common sense) that was at least a thousand times bigger than her,stayed calm when she talked to the minotaur guy, only one to make friends with discord, and pushed her brother to help him with his selfesteem and reflection
silver, you never have and never will stop provoking healthy thought growth. Thank you for doing what you do.
As Larry Cullen once said to his brother as he auditioned to play an alien truck.
"If you're going to be a real hero, be strong enough to be gentle"
That one phrase would be what inspired the characterization of Optimus Prime and I'd like to think this applies to fluttershy to
I just noticed that in the picture of all the characters fluttershy helped that Angel bunny isn't there. silver did you make the Dragon eat Angel
Johann super saiyan red please pay no attention to the plate of ossenfeffer on my table
For fluttershy, I just look towards her arcana "Strength". Fluttershy normally would cowar away from adversity, but when push comes to shove she always comes out on top to save the day or to push pass what she thought she was capable of.
Have you noticed how the voice actor for pinkypie and fluttershy can go from SUPER CRAZY HIPER ACTIVE SUGAR AND CRAZY RUSH to shy and timid
That part with the megaphone was really cute.
Look at are little Silver-Quill using big words.I'm so proud
Very well spoken as usual Silver. I really do love these in-depth archetype discussions and look forward to watching more in the future. They get me thinking of characters from other shows/books (as well as my own characters) in a new light. TY for them and do keep them up. ^_^
Also, one quick question, did the passive/aggressive shadows have archetype names that I missed?
Thank you, Silver. This means the world to me ❤
This is really amazing...
Wow very interesting only just found your channel and subscribed 🙂 Only been watching the series from late October 2016, but the fan base seems huge and very ... not sure what the word is but, very deep, meaningful, intelligent and very very creative. Don't know how I missed it 😄. Though have been busy over the last few years trying to get a book done on my cats, first one almost done, the second and third on there way.
Anyway going to have a look at a few of your other videos now 😊 great work
As much I love your soft side I love your Humor even more.
You're awesome MLP-SILVER - QUILL and very cool.😉
keep it up good work Silver-Quill 😊😀👍👍👍
I think many can agree you just sumed up why we all like fluttershy. ^^
3:07
A white unicorn with a red and black mane. I wonder who it could be. ;)
thank you, someone who expresses the hatred/undecided for the Watership Down regect as much as I do.
