7:48 Rainbow Dash: "We just had lunch with Fluttershy's parents (who live in a cloud house) and you'll never guess who showed up." Pinkie Pie proceeds to guess four different individuals who cannot fly.
"We may not be as bold as you, Fluttershy..." Best sentence ever. If "peeved" is strong language in Equestria, I hope noone from our world comes into this place. Especially when said someone has Tourettes. Zephyr Breeze is a lot like someone I know back from school. He held two positions at school: The school bully and the school's worst pupil. This guy now has no qualified profession and only takes on odd jobs and the like. At least according to the last things I heard about him. "I will literally do anything you ask me if it means I don't have to stay here." Luckily, he didn't say that to me. That sentence is so exploitable. Naming in Equestria is weird. Let's just say he's called Zephyr is called Breeze just because of chance. You are unable to ship something? The one person who ships everyone with everyone (and everything)? Like Twilight with Burning Axe? Boulder with Danny DeVito? Sugarcube Corner with the spa's doormat? Granny Smith with Pound Cake? Every French person with RW Cephei? My keys with your colour changing lamp? Everyone from the EQG franchise with everyone from G3? -Coppergears
BronyBurningAxe I totally forgot to make my favorite joke about this episode. Zephyr: "I can already _feel_ the electricity between us." And later that day, he got to feel a lot more of it.
This episode really makes me realize how old the ponies are. They have to be in their mid or upper 20s at this point. Either way... i can't see how people still think there like 15 and stuff. Maybe in the earlier episodes they could pass for teens but the later episode really been hinting at the fact that they are surprisingly pretty old imo. That's just me though.
10:40 Zephyr: "There's plenty of ponies who'd love for a little Breeze to blow their way." Dude, you shouldn't speak in innuendos in front of your own family. Super creepy.
***** Oh... GOD DAMN IT! I keep doing that -_- I assumed it was Flutter Butter, it looked like it at first glance, and being as Zephr said "Flutter Butter" I just assumed....sigh...fuck.
BronyBurningAxe it's a play on how he calls her Flutter Butter and how he is her Brother. The title never did make sense to me until I heard him say that phrase. :)
That is basically my big brother. But hopefully he will find his path just like Zephyr Breeze did and will learn that there's more to life than depending on everyone else.
I shut down in any pressure filled situation so I can't work... and by shut down I mean I lose all track of basic thought, it can last for hours, my aspergers is higher functioning, but I have very little in the way of social skills.
There were 2 other references in this episode too. Apparently the 4 ponies in that Mane Therapy are references to characters in a TV show called Mad Men (USA show) and in the background in Ponyville there was Link Pony with rubies (Legend of Zelda) hehe. This is actually my favorite episode of the season due Flutters and how relatable the episode was for me. I guessed you missed the part at the beginning when Zephyr mentions he's the younger brother of Flutters. Um, FYI, bigger often does means older here in the USA. Like I am the oldest in my family and the only girl and I've been referred to as a big sister. Oh my brothers are taller than me too. I am 5'3" and my brothers are 6'1" and 5'9".
I had been dreading this episode for a long time when it first came out (having read the listing digest ahead of time). I was afraid of a direct and aggressive attack on people such as myself (not that I don't deserve it). Instead because they made Zephyr into a "the jerk who wouldn't leave" type I was able to step back a bit and enjoy the episode while also absorbing the story's rather serious and (for me) applicable message.
Oh, and by the way, this was one of the two episodes this season that I warned had spoilery titles. Fortunately this one had the reveal (that Fluttershy had a brother) before the title was shown on screen in the episode, however, there is one coming a bit later where the reveal happens a bit later, so watch out for that one.
20:45 "I like that picture of Fluttershy in the background." That was a reference to Lauren Faust's original concept art for Fluttershy's character. vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/mlpfanart/images/d/d1/History_concept.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20111008150105
The funny fact is what BBA is literally the only youtuber what i found that have the most number of episodes reacted without getting copyright or i say, blocked (because have the fact too that some episodes has been reposted because of copyright issues but still on public and the only episode that was not posted is the "Crusaders Of The Lost Mark" that is not in list because of spoilers at the time that he was reacting to the season. Even Netflix don't have all this episodes! Lmao.
A lot of my episodes were blocked, I just disputed the claims, or reuploaded them. There are still some to reupload. And I will do a re-watch of Crusaders when I come back to reactions. I'll record my fresh review of it. :)
I just noticed that rd is the only pony in the mane six who doesn’t have a sibling, and scootaloo is the only pony who doesn’t have a sibling in the cmc. (Well they don’t really count as real sisters but they act like they are)
The only family mystery that hasn't been entirely covered was Rainbow Dash. We don't really know if she's an only child or has siblings of her own, not to mention any background info about her parents(like AJ's parents).
agreed, she is now the only one who we know nothing about her family. i have a theory that she has an older sibling that is the best at everything, which would explain why RD likes to show off
Brill video, apart from the start.... I also have a LED light with a remote.. they sell them online and in stores and like tescos.... but apart from that brill video
this was a great episode, it was nice to meet Fluttershy's family, Zepher was great, and i know people say that it was just Flutter's character development over these years, but i think she may have always been the though sister, just a feeling i got, now we need to meet RD family. and yeah Zepher is the younger child, my uncial in younger than my mother but he is taller than her. great reaction dude. BroHoof (\
This is probably my favorite episode of the season, mainly because we get to see some other family ponies of the Mane 6. What about you? What is your favorite episode so far this season?
YAY I've been waiting for this. I'm late for this probly because I don't get notifications on this only my other 2 devices. No wait 3: tablet, laptop, and the desktop. Not necessary to say that but what eves XD
1. 0:12 Oh cool, one of those. 2. 2:10 Yep, finally after all these seasons. Now only Rainbow Dash is left... 3. 2:36 This seems very familiar... remember the beginning of the season 2 finale? XD 4. 4:45 Ah yes, Zephyr's interactions with Rainbow are just priceless. XD 5. 5:11 Ship it just to piss Dash off. XD 6. 6:53 Haha Rainbow, you're one to talk. XD 7. 7:28 Really had to try hard to avoid making a joke about this before you saw this episode. XD 8. 7:33 That's the joke. XD 9. 12:35 Haha, Fluttershy's expression here! derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/6/1172107.gif 10. 20:45 We've actually seen that photo before: derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/6/1171400.png 11. 22:34 Yep, they said that at the beginning too. 12. 24:41 Same reason Shining Armor's last name isn't "Sparkle" I guess... 13. 25:19 Eh, that's never stopped a ship before. Definitely didn't stop Fluttershy's parents anyway. XD derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/11/1175545.jpg 14. 25:36 Pitchforks you say? derpicdn.net/img/view/2015/5/2/887383.gif 15. 26:04 If you really think about it, very few ships really have any basis in canon.
Do you think the parents of the Mane Six skip the personality genetics with their kids? Pinkie is the only exuberant one of her sisters while her parents are so monotonous. Zephyr doesn't share the personality like the Shy family.
I can see how some people might hate him with a passion, but I don't think he has ever been shown to be a bad guy, his egocentric point of view just let's him forget what other people might think about his actions, but that is no reason to hate a character or a person.
Exactly this scene you mention is why I understand if people hate, I do agree that this is really insensitive to the highest degree. But as I said, he is very egocentric and doesn't realise what he's doing, from a outside point of view he is destroying his father's collection of memories that go back to before he was born. He doesn't realise how much that means to his father because the collection doesn't mean anything to him and he doesn't realise that not everybody feels the same way as he does. He is not doing this out of bad intentions, it's just a, I guess you could say, mental issue. Also he is put in his place when he is forced to life in the wild. Sure, it's only for a short time, but try to think of the whole picture, a guy whose parents have spoiled him with love all his life is suddenly forced to move out, then when he comes to live with his sister, she forces him to work, something he had never really done in his life, then he gets kicked out by his sister again and he goes to life in the forest where he is, away from all the comfort he has had all his life, struggling with even the simplest tasks he would need for survival. That is as much as you could do in a single episode and it does work. He could've gone on pretending everything was just fine but he rather gives up and admits his problem and it is then when we even learn why he is so afraid of ever doing anything himself. And it is something that actually many people can identify with. Also please try to see that even if it might not work for everyone, the writers do try to balance his annoyance and ego with a very energized and kind of Kuzco-ish personality, also contrasting the shy and quiet nature of the rest of the family. For some it might work and for some it might not. They could've just made him a fat, un-enthusiastic guy living in the basement and playing videogames (which do exist in the show, just to remind you!). Instead they tried to make him likable. The design is not really a valid argument to not like any character or person, but that aside, simply put, he wants to be a mane stylist, so it just makes sense that he himself has a more excentric mane style. Just be glad his mane looks better than the one of his test mannequin! ;P If you don't like it because it's such a girly mane style, and this might just be me interpretating, but I think this, together with his way to talk and his body language are little hints to maybe him being actually transgender. And if you're now wondering why he then hits on Rainbow Dash, being transgender does not mean being attracted to the same sex, it's a common mistake. He can still be straight. If he was a real person, I'd say, the more it would be NOT justified to hate him. I think nobody deserves to be hated, everbody has good as well as bad qualities and aside from a few exceptions (Hitler) there is no person that you could say is so bad, they deserve to die in a fire. It is made very clear that Zephyr loves his family and I'm sure, he also does genuinely respect Rainbow Dash as a person, your just seeing the side, the writers want us to primarily see, which is his egocentric mindset and his inability to care for himself since that is the focus of the episode. Lastly, the episode did hardly only content him manipulating others to get away with things, the focus is mainly on Fluttershy, even Rainbow Dash only plays a side role. Throughout the story we're following her around, not Zephyr! So that alone proves, that the episode is not only him being a "twat" as you call him. But even more, we have numerous scenes where he himself is being put into place by other ponies, mainly his sister.
>But as I said, he is very egocentric and doesn't realise what he's doing I struggle to see how that excuses anything. Or justifies anything. You can say something like that about every villain, even real life horrible people, and it doesn't make a difference. As for his personality, I don't see how the Kuzko-ish energetic part makes him likeable. For me, that's part of what attributes to my utter disdain of the character. He is just the worst character that could possibly exist for me. I have never seen a more hateable character in all of fiction. (Not an exaggeration, I genuinely can't think of any, heck, I don't even usually hate fictional characters to begin with). I've said many times that if he was a quiet, depressed and "un-enthusiastic", as you said, I'd actually like him and the episode because IMO that's a much more widespread, realistic and relatable personality type. I have a friend like that. I would never be a friend to a person like the actual Zephyr we got. As for justifying hatred for real people, well, it's a waste of energy to hate someone, true, but in my opinion, if you act like an absolute cunt (which he does), you deserve not a speck of good treatment. And I absolutely, by the way, do NOT believe he genuinely respects Rainbow Dash. I don't have much fondness for Rainbow Dash myself (least favorite of the mane6), but you do not treat someone you respect the way Zephyr treats her. Some people (like, say, a certain Narrator) might know my history with Rainbow Dash's character, and I would not hesitate to say that I've never respected her less than Zephyr does, even with how much I used to badmouth her (and still do when she is an idiot in an episode, though last time it happened it was the beginning of season five). And I don't see much love for his family in him, beyond recognizing that they'll always provide for him and carry his ass through his moments of idiocy. Also, even if the episode doesn't follow him, he is very much the focus and the rest of it revolves around other ponies dealing with his shit or talking about dealing with his shit. Considering they don't just go "okay he can fuck off, I'm not gonna give him any food or any space to live", it's also irritating to watch.
Also, in my opinion the transgender part is absolute bullshit and a real stretch. You really, really don't need to be transgender to act a bit feminine (if you're a guy), or a bit masculine (if you're a girl). By that same logic Rainbow Dash and Apllejack are transgender. People trying to paste this label on fictional characters based on nothing but being a tomboy or slightly girly irks me. (Nothing against ACTUAL trans people, obviously, though not the kind that labels themselves trans just because they're a tomboy / girly).
I can't really see if this is a rant or just you stating the facts from your point of view, but I see that I can't convince you. I do have a few things to say, but they won't really do much, so it doesn't matter. But I will say that I never stated he was acting girlish, just that you might think his mane would be girlish. True, the things I base my theory on, are stereotypical but if one would not want to focus on something, yet still hint on it, that is the best way to go, as long as it's not offensive.
8:41 If Fluttershy ever yelled _my_ name in that tone of voice I think I would have a heart attack on the spot.
Same probably
7:48 Rainbow Dash: "We just had lunch with Fluttershy's parents (who live in a cloud house) and you'll never guess who showed up."
Pinkie Pie proceeds to guess four different individuals who cannot fly.
Oh my god I didn't even notice that! XD Wow, I hope that was intentional by the writers.
20:42 Fun Fact: That picture of Fluttershy is some of the concept art Lauren Faust drew when designing the mane 6.
7:23 The German translation of this is hilarious xD German Fluttershy: "I'm so... Pissed and stinking mad!" XD
Thats a pg13
diffidently one of my fav episodes of the season :)
Also Zephyr totally has a thing for Rainbow
One of my favorite episodes this season, it did wonders to Fluttershy.
Yep :)
"We may not be as bold as you, Fluttershy..."
Best sentence ever.
If "peeved" is strong language in Equestria, I hope noone from our world comes into this place. Especially when said someone has Tourettes.
Zephyr Breeze is a lot like someone I know back from school. He held two positions at school: The school bully and the school's worst pupil. This guy now has no qualified profession and only takes on odd jobs and the like. At least according to the last things I heard about him.
"I will literally do anything you ask me if it means I don't have to stay here."
Luckily, he didn't say that to me. That sentence is so exploitable.
Naming in Equestria is weird. Let's just say he's called Zephyr is called Breeze just because of chance.
You are unable to ship something? The one person who ships everyone with everyone (and everything)? Like Twilight with Burning Axe? Boulder with Danny DeVito? Sugarcube Corner with the spa's doormat? Granny Smith with Pound Cake? Every French person with RW Cephei? My keys with your colour changing lamp? Everyone from the EQG franchise with everyone from G3?

15:41 Rainbow: "That's right, Zeph! You're coming with me!"
But not in the way he would like. ;)
Yeah he'd like to taste the rainbow ;)
BronyBurningAxe
[Insert comeback about blowing the breeze]
Lol when fluttershy said "paved" it's the mlp version of "pissed" . I've always wanted to see fluttershy cuss
Peved*
Yeah me too XD
during Zephyr's stay with Fluttershy,am I the only one who wanted Discord to meet Zephyr?
I'd like Discord to meet everypony
BronyBurningAxe IKR
Id like all the parents to meet, like, at the starwars ceremony when they beat discord
***** that would be cool
3:13 "Alrighty then, so Fluttershy has a brother!"
But unlike Twilight's brother he's not cool enough to get an intro song.
Yeah haha
BronyBurningAxe
I totally forgot to make my favorite joke about this episode.
Zephyr: "I can already _feel_ the electricity between us."
And later that day, he got to feel a lot more of it.
Narrator007
Oh god XD Yes he did haha
This episode really makes me realize how old the ponies are. They have to be in their mid or upper 20s at this point. Either way... i can't see how people still think there like 15 and stuff. Maybe in the earlier episodes they could pass for teens but the later episode really been hinting at the fact that they are surprisingly pretty old imo. That's just me though.
Yeah I would say they are 19-21, college/university students.
watch out for the VERY VERY strong language in this episode
"i am so BEEFED right now"
She said Peeved lol
It's uhhh... It's peeved she said.... Not beefed...
10:40 Zephyr: "There's plenty of ponies who'd love for a little Breeze to blow their way."
Dude, you shouldn't speak in innuendos in front of your own family. Super creepy.
Wow XD
You didn't know Fluttershy had a brother? Before this season even existed, there were loads of fan made comics about him.
I never saw the comics :p
BronyBurningAxe
There were even comic dubs on youtube XD
( O_〉O)?
I didn't know they existed lol XD
The Fluttershy in this episode is the best Fluttershy in the whole show.
zepher reminds me of me a year ago in so many ways its embaressing XD
Loved the Cast Away reference in this XD
BronyBurningAxe you messed up the title. It's Flutter Brutter
*****
Oh... GOD DAMN IT! I keep doing that -_- I assumed it was Flutter Butter, it looked like it at first glance, and being as Zephr said "Flutter Butter" I just assumed....sigh...fuck.
WILSON!!!!!
BronyBurningAxe it's a play on how he calls her Flutter Butter and how he is her Brother. The title never did make sense to me until I heard him say that phrase. :)
BronyBurningAxe oh, BTW, sweet lamp! I need to get me one of those!
I like this episode and I would say its probably Fluttershy's best episode.
haha you dont notice Link with the rupees in the background xD
That is basically my big brother. But hopefully he will find his path just like Zephyr Breeze did and will learn that there's more to life than depending on everyone else.
I feel like I am that way, but I do anything myself that i can actually do. (You know the things I can't do for myself) :/
Im glad.
How to make a reaction video: Spend the first minute talking about a lamp that has nothing to do with the rest of the video xD
Yep XD
I shut down in any pressure filled situation so I can't work... and by shut down I mean I lose all track of basic thought, it can last for hours, my aspergers is higher functioning, but I have very little in the way of social skills.

Instead because they made Zephyr into a "the jerk who wouldn't leave" type I was able to step back a bit and enjoy the episode while also absorbing the story's rather serious and (for me) applicable message.
Also fun fact about this? In the spanish version of this episode, Fluttershy says her brother pisses her off so much.
Oh that's awesome XD
Oh, and by the way, this was one of the two episodes this season that I warned had spoilery titles.

One minute of looking at a lamp.
Time well spent :P
In the German translation, Fluttershy actually says, she's pissed! XD
Wow lol XD
(17:56) Wilson!
Volleyball: My name is Voit, dumbass!
If you know that reference, it's a riot.
Yes! Hahaha Family man, I love that scene XD
I just noticed that rd is the only pony in the mane six who doesn’t have a sibling, and scootaloo is the only pony who doesn’t have a sibling in the cmc. (Well they don’t really count as real sisters but they act like they are)
I sooooo wanted Discord to show up in this episode and meet Zephyr.
My crush got the exact same thing from the beginning but it's just a straight up LED light and you can hang it up on the wall
Awesome
The only family mystery that hasn't been entirely covered was Rainbow Dash. We don't really know if she's an only child or has siblings of her own, not to mention any background info about her parents(like AJ's parents).
We don't know anything about AJ's yet either, do we? I mean it's hinted that they probably died, but... It's not confirmed, right?
agreed, she is now the only one who we know nothing about her family. i have a theory that she has an older sibling that is the best at everything, which would explain why RD likes to show off
ZEADPOOL1991 RD fool!
BronyBurningAxe RD's dad or brother was in The hearthswarming tale episode of this season
Panda Q what?
Fluttershys brother was supposed to appear in season 5 originally.
Oh right, wonder why they didn't put him in it
That would be the perfect lamp for Rainbow Dash
Rainbow Lamp :)
Also, wow, we've found a pairing even YOU won't ship XD
Yeah haha
Did you know you can see 10,000,000 different colors red, dark red, aquamarine, turquoise, rose ect.
I didn't! that's cool :D
The ponifyed version of a man-bun? Good grief!😆 And HA! Spike got Tom Sawyered!
15:42 that’s one way how to get out of something you don’t wanna do
i high-key ship Zephyr and Rainbow Dash
Brill video, apart from the start.... I also have a LED light with a remote.. they sell them online and in stores and like tescos.... but apart from that brill video
Thanks :)
Cool lamp.
it was not a bad episode.
Fluttershy brother is a pain.
+BronyBurningAxe you are awesome.
Thanks :D
BronyBurningAxe
your welcome.
Have nice week and Weekend.
Seth Carlow
You too /)
22:05 WHAT DID YOU DO TO SCOOTALOO?! XD
Pony presents: Zerphyl Jerk and Sassy Shy.
this was a great episode, it was nice to meet Fluttershy's family, Zepher was great, and i know people say that it was just Flutter's character development over these years, but i think she may have always been the though sister, just a feeling i got,
now we need to meet RD family.
and yeah Zepher is the younger child, my uncial in younger than my mother but he is taller than her.
great reaction dude.
BroHoof (\
Brohoof! /)
if you haven't seen it yet, try reacting to this bo burnham mlp uncenseared
13:52 rarity’s cat (forgot the name) has a rainbow dash like tail.
This is probably my favorite episode of the season, mainly because we get to see some other family ponies of the Mane 6. What about you? What is your favorite episode so far this season?
Not sure, the episodes are really good, it's hard to pick a fave episode right now.
BronyBurningAxe True that.
The more things change the more they stay the same, also, Michael Bay does Explosions ad America, J.J. Abrams is lens flares, for future reference
15:24 Legend of Zelda reference.
You should have waited to use those clips until after Zypher had his meltdown
bronyburning axe I love your videos keep doing great 😉😉
Awe thank you, I will! :D
Yay
😄
YAY I've been waiting for this. I'm late for this probly because I don't get notifications on this only my other 2 devices. No wait 3: tablet, laptop, and the desktop. Not necessary to say that but what eves XD
I don't like going out either
1. 0:12 Oh cool, one of those.
2. 2:10 Yep, finally after all these seasons. Now only Rainbow Dash is left...
3. 2:36 This seems very familiar... remember the beginning of the season 2 finale? XD
4. 4:45 Ah yes, Zephyr's interactions with Rainbow are just priceless. XD
5. 5:11 Ship it just to piss Dash off. XD
6. 6:53 Haha Rainbow, you're one to talk. XD
7. 7:28 Really had to try hard to avoid making a joke about this before you saw this episode. XD
8. 7:33 That's the joke. XD
9. 12:35 Haha, Fluttershy's expression here! derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/6/1172107.gif
10. 20:45 We've actually seen that photo before: derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/6/1171400.png
11. 22:34 Yep, they said that at the beginning too.
12. 24:41 Same reason Shining Armor's last name isn't "Sparkle" I guess...
13. 25:19 Eh, that's never stopped a ship before. Definitely didn't stop Fluttershy's parents anyway. XD derpicdn.net/img/view/2016/6/11/1175545.jpg

15. 26:04 If you really think about it, very few ships really have any basis in canon.
I want to see Night mare moon and twilight fight xD
Me too :D
it'll be awesome, btw you remember the canterlot wedding episode, I cant get that evil song out of my head XD
Yes! I love that song, it's one of my faves :D
lol im eating popcorn to this
is it a new lamp or just a new bulb
New Bulb :)
BronyBurningAxe nice lol
LOVE this Reaction Dash! =D
Thanks Pheebs :)
This is a great episode. The ending is a little rushed. Fluttershy is fantastic. The whole Zepher being into Rainbow Dash is a little disturbing.
How did that guy even get his CM any way
You are now BurnyBronyaxe XD
Lol XD
Assertive Fluttershy is best Fluttershy
You bet!
Nice lamp dude! 👍
Thanks! /)
BronyBurningAxe (\
Do you think the parents of the Mane Six skip the personality genetics with their kids? Pinkie is the only exuberant one of her sisters while her parents are so monotonous. Zephyr doesn't share the personality like the Shy family.
Yeah I have to agree.
BronyBurningAxe Apparently everyone has a sibling except for Rainbow Dash. She's apparently an only child.
where were the cutie mark crusaders this episode? we need them!
Nope I don't ship Zephyr Breeze with Rainbow. Were is Soarin when you need him Rainbow? Love Fluttershy in this
14:26 Where's that from? XD
I have no idea XD But I know the song from a game I played when I was younger. This is it XD - ua-cam.com/video/nMbhCjg9SBg/v-deo.html
I was born in 1997, does that make me to young to call Zypher a fucking millennial?
Screw it I'm gonna do it anyway
God I have school at 9:00 but oh well 😂
Well go bed XD
BronyBurningAxe Might as well watch your reaction now :3
Alisha H
Ok then XD
Like the lamp
Thanks!

Hi
Worst episode of the entire show, bar none. I can't even watch a reaction, that's how bad Zephyr is.
I can see how some people might hate him with a passion, but I don't think he has ever been shown to be a bad guy, his egocentric point of view just let's him forget what other people might think about his actions, but that is no reason to hate a character or a person.
Exactly this scene you mention is why I understand if people hate, I do agree that this is really insensitive to the highest degree. But as I said, he is very egocentric and doesn't realise what he's doing, from a outside point of view he is destroying his father's collection of memories that go back to before he was born. He doesn't realise how much that means to his father because the collection doesn't mean anything to him and he doesn't realise that not everybody feels the same way as he does. He is not doing this out of bad intentions, it's just a, I guess you could say, mental issue.
Also he is put in his place when he is forced to life in the wild. Sure, it's only for a short time, but try to think of the whole picture, a guy whose parents have spoiled him with love all his life is suddenly forced to move out, then when he comes to live with his sister, she forces him to work, something he had never really done in his life, then he gets kicked out by his sister again and he goes to life in the forest where he is, away from all the comfort he has had all his life, struggling with even the simplest tasks he would need for survival. That is as much as you could do in a single episode and it does work. He could've gone on pretending everything was just fine but he rather gives up and admits his problem and it is then when we even learn why he is so afraid of ever doing anything himself. And it is something that actually many people can identify with.
Also please try to see that even if it might not work for everyone, the writers do try to balance his annoyance and ego with a very energized and kind of Kuzco-ish personality, also contrasting the shy and quiet nature of the rest of the family. For some it might work and for some it might not. They could've just made him a fat, un-enthusiastic guy living in the basement and playing videogames (which do exist in the show, just to remind you!). Instead they tried to make him likable.
The design is not really a valid argument to not like any character or person, but that aside, simply put, he wants to be a mane stylist, so it just makes sense that he himself has a more excentric mane style. Just be glad his mane looks better than the one of his test mannequin! ;P If you don't like it because it's such a girly mane style, and this might just be me interpretating, but I think this, together with his way to talk and his body language are little hints to maybe him being actually transgender. And if you're now wondering why he then hits on Rainbow Dash, being transgender does not mean being attracted to the same sex, it's a common mistake. He can still be straight.
If he was a real person, I'd say, the more it would be NOT justified to hate him. I think nobody deserves to be hated, everbody has good as well as bad qualities and aside from a few exceptions (Hitler) there is no person that you could say is so bad, they deserve to die in a fire. It is made very clear that Zephyr loves his family and I'm sure, he also does genuinely respect Rainbow Dash as a person, your just seeing the side, the writers want us to primarily see, which is his egocentric mindset and his inability to care for himself since that is the focus of the episode.
Lastly, the episode did hardly only content him manipulating others to get away with things, the focus is mainly on Fluttershy, even Rainbow Dash only plays a side role. Throughout the story we're following her around, not Zephyr! So that alone proves, that the episode is not only him being a "twat" as you call him. But even more, we have numerous scenes where he himself is being put into place by other ponies, mainly his sister.
>But as I said, he is very egocentric and doesn't realise what he's doing
I struggle to see how that excuses anything. Or justifies anything. You can say something like that about every villain, even real life horrible people, and it doesn't make a difference.
As for his personality, I don't see how the Kuzko-ish energetic part makes him likeable. For me, that's part of what attributes to my utter disdain of the character. He is just the worst character that could possibly exist for me. I have never seen a more hateable character in all of fiction. (Not an exaggeration, I genuinely can't think of any, heck, I don't even usually hate fictional characters to begin with). I've said many times that if he was a quiet, depressed and "un-enthusiastic", as you said, I'd actually like him and the episode because IMO that's a much more widespread, realistic and relatable personality type. I have a friend like that. I would never be a friend to a person like the actual Zephyr we got.
As for justifying hatred for real people, well, it's a waste of energy to hate someone, true, but in my opinion, if you act like an absolute cunt (which he does), you deserve not a speck of good treatment. And I absolutely, by the way, do NOT believe he genuinely respects Rainbow Dash. I don't have much fondness for Rainbow Dash myself (least favorite of the mane6), but you do not treat someone you respect the way Zephyr treats her. Some people (like, say, a certain Narrator) might know my history with Rainbow Dash's character, and I would not hesitate to say that I've never respected her less than Zephyr does, even with how much I used to badmouth her (and still do when she is an idiot in an episode, though last time it happened it was the beginning of season five). And I don't see much love for his family in him, beyond recognizing that they'll always provide for him and carry his ass through his moments of idiocy.
Also, even if the episode doesn't follow him, he is very much the focus and the rest of it revolves around other ponies dealing with his shit or talking about dealing with his shit. Considering they don't just go "okay he can fuck off, I'm not gonna give him any food or any space to live", it's also irritating to watch.
Also, in my opinion the transgender part is absolute bullshit and a real stretch. You really, really don't need to be transgender to act a bit feminine (if you're a guy), or a bit masculine (if you're a girl). By that same logic Rainbow Dash and Apllejack are transgender. People trying to paste this label on fictional characters based on nothing but being a tomboy or slightly girly irks me. (Nothing against ACTUAL trans people, obviously, though not the kind that labels themselves trans just because they're a tomboy / girly).
I can't really see if this is a rant or just you stating the facts from your point of view, but I see that I can't convince you. I do have a few things to say, but they won't really do much, so it doesn't matter.
But I will say that I never stated he was acting girlish, just that you might think his mane would be girlish. True, the things I base my theory on, are stereotypical but if one would not want to focus on something, yet still hint on it, that is the best way to go, as long as it's not offensive.
First!
Man, +Random Taco sure is slow xD
