Hmm I have never been a big fan of the spike/rarity couple though they are cute. It's not mostly that they're different species but I think it's because of how the relationship between them just doesn't seem right. They have aw moments but spike is only young (probably hasn't experienced any relationships yet which is probably intended to relate to the younger audiences) and I don't think rarity actually likes him in that way. I think she is nice to him because she doesn't want to hurt his feelings and say no. Also because it seems whenever she can benefit from him (ei gem digging but keeping most gems, the fire ruby etc.) she is used to turning on her "charm" to get what she wants-again I don't think she mean this in a harmful way but I don't think spike notices when she somewhat takes advantage of him. Imo I hope spike either realizes what is happening or rarity learns how to commit to the relationship more which would teach the young ones more about give/take in any relationship. Anyhow, since we've recently had a spike/rarity ep, I highly doubt they will focus as much on it again before giving some attention to the mane 6 some more or less needing some screen time.
