I don’t understand how people are still hating on the guy almost 10 years later while as mentioned in the comments there have been characters that have done far worse then him. His action have done nothing to hinder or traumatize rarity from her career, her pursuit of attractive stallions, her confidence, or anything else.
@Proper Prose
You know, considering they managed to make a hotheaded egotist like Trixie more mature, I wonder why they haven’t done the same to Blueblood…and then realization struck me that the royalty of Canterlot don’t get much focus in general…maybe that’s the crux of the problem?
@sonicfan
Apathy more or less. Yes, he was a jerk to Rarity but so many others have done far worse that he isn’t he even a blip on anyone’s radar. He might have been a more interesting and prominent character given his relationship to Celestia and Luna, but the writers don’t seem interested in capitalizing on it.
Besides, they seemed to have made up by Sweet and Elite (or at least have the maturity to put it behind them/ not let it ruin the occasion for anyone else).
@Shimmering Spectacle
Well, no, some ponies just think it wasn’t enough to justify murderous rage. Being rude doesn’t normally carry a death sentence. I disliked Trixie more than he, for example.
Oh, Blueblood haven’t appeared since Season 1 (like forever), I hope he re appears to make the fans see him in another light.
I suggest him meeting with Trixie and Starlight to prove how their relation dynamics really works in canon!!
Hell even in canon, Trixie have never interacted with Blueblood.

He’s not a cute mare. That’s it, really. Suri did far worse and doesn’t garner near as much rage even after all this time.
Rarity didn’t like it when he use her as a shield from an apple pie.

Seems some people hasn’t seen season 1.
Yes, it’s all very tiresome.
Yes
For the record, this was a reply to >>1980066. And yes, we’re not big fans of him.
Because of what he did to rarity, yeah they sure do hate him.

I sense a lack of ‘semi-grimdark’, BTW.
