I recently realized some simiarities between MLP:FiM and Star Trek Voyager! O_O

We have (Twilight Sparkle) Captain Kathryn Janeway, who upholds and shares with others (Friendship) humanity ideas and Starfleet principles, dealing with those who are against them or don't understand them yet.

We have (Spike) Neelix, who is used mostly as a comic relief and is rarely doing important stuff, while being one of the main characters. But there are also times when he's a voice of reason, and doing something really important. He becomes a better character as the show goes on.

We have (Rainbow Dash) Tom Paris, who starts off as an arrogant, self-confident person with a big ego. But later shows a true loyalty to his friends at many occasions, and learns to be more open with others and becomes a better person.

We have (Applejack) Chakotay, an honest, strong and reliable person, a voice of reason, especially for (Twilight) Captain Janeway. And he was quite stubborn a few times.

What especially blew my mind though, was the actual "Starlight Glimmer story arc":

We have (Starlight Glimmer) Seven of Nine, who joins the show, after several seasons. She's a former Borg who lived in a collective of drones (it's like living in a town of equal brainwashed ponies with the same qutie mark).

(Stalright) Seven was liberated from the collective and saved by (Twilight) Captain Janeway, who became her mentor (just like in the MLP show)! She taught her everything about friendship and other stuff, while Seven made some mistakes or impulsive actions at times (just like Starlight did) and struggled to fit in. But later (Starlight )Seven became almost the main character that the show put a great focus on, and at times she helped (Twilight) Janeway by being her voice of reason (again, just like it was in MLP).

Eventually (Starlight) Seven helped to liberate a big group of (Changelings) drones from the (Queen Chrysalis) Borg Queen's collective, when made the Queen seek revenge later on both (Twilight) Janeway and (Starlight) Seven.

Oh yeah, (Starlight) Seven also became best friends with (Trixie) a holographic person The Doctor, who could be quite narcissistic and egotistic, especially at first, but he did improve by the end of the show.
