Analyzing the entire MLP:FiM transcript to figure out who mentions each other most!
What happens when a programmer gets bored? This, apparently.
I wrote a Python script to acquire the entirety of spoken dialog for all currently released episodes of MLP:FiM Seasons 1 through 7. There's a lot more that could be done with having such a database, but for this post I decided it would be fun to see how many name drops each of our "mane" six ponies have for each other. Also, it includes common nicknames for that extra bit of accuracy. Maybe. Here's the raw data when I run my script and tally things up:
APPLEJACK: Mentions RAINBOW DASH 37 times. Mentions TWILIGHT SPARKLE 80 times. Mentions FLUTTERSHY 26 times. Mentions RARITY 66 times. Mentions PINKIE PIE 75 times. Mentions herself 9 times. RAINBOW DASH: Mentions APPLEJACK 44 times. Mentions TWILIGHT SPARKLE 60 times. Mentions FLUTTERSHY 64 times. Mentions RARITY 25 times. Mentions PINKIE PIE 81 times. Mentions herself 27 times. TWILIGHT SPARKLE: Mentions APPLEJACK 97 times. Mentions RAINBOW DASH 98 times. Mentions FLUTTERSHY 95 times. Mentions RARITY 99 times. Mentions PINKIE PIE 179 times. Mentions herself 40 times. FLUTTERSHY: Mentions APPLEJACK 13 times. Mentions RAINBOW DASH 39 times. Mentions TWILIGHT SPARKLE 52 times. Mentions RARITY 39 times. Mentions PINKIE PIE 26 times. Mentions herself 23 times. RARITY: Mentions APPLEJACK 81 times. Mentions RAINBOW DASH 56 times. Mentions TWILIGHT SPARKLE 66 times. Mentions FLUTTERSHY 49 times. Mentions PINKIE PIE 48 times. Mentions herself 37 times. PINKIE PIE: Mentions APPLEJACK 50 times. Mentions RAINBOW DASH 71 times. Mentions TWILIGHT SPARKLE 93 times. Mentions FLUTTERSHY 49 times. Mentions RARITY 54 times. Mentions herself 71 times. "Ew, gross!" You say. Indeed. HERE IS A GRAPH!
Now, this graph is nice and all, but what we really care about is percentage of name drops per the total number of times they mention somebody. And for fun, this includes when they mention themselves.
Okay, so this is some real data. At a first glance, we can see that Pinkie Pie and Twilight are fairly popular ponies in comparison to others. Pinkie Pie is the most mentioned pony for 2/6 mane six ponies, and one of those remaining 4 is herself, so that's not surprising. For Twilight, she's the most mentioned for 3/6. According to percentages, here's who mentions each other the most:
-
Applejack: mentions Twilight the most with Pinkie Pie at a very close second.
-
Rainbow Dash: mentions Pinkie Pie the most with Fluttershy and Twilight in second.
-
Twilight: mentions Pinkie Pie the most with all but herself basically tied for second.
-
Fluttershy: mentions Twilight the most with Rainbow Dash and Rarity tied for second.
-
Rarity: mentions Applejack the most with Twilight in second.
-
Pinkie Pie: mentions Twilight the most with Rainbow Dash and...herself tied for second.
So according to the data, these are the OTPs of MLP:FiM (not really).
Hope you enjoyed.
