The Nth Doctor

Er...Zipp? Your metaphor falls a bit flat when you remember earth ponies can make full-grown plants in seconds Enjoy your community service for being a public menace and causing property damage, Izzy

Can't wait for Queen Haven to raze Bridlewood to the ground to make a spa to drain the spog dry. ... What? She was perfectly willing to steal an entire wall from Maretime Bay, remember? What's a little deforestation between friends?

So...they can just...turn their flanks into flashlights at will now? How Who told them about it Who taught them Why isn't magic turning off when ponies argue anymore?

Zipp, Onyx, and Jazz have great designs Only real clunker so far is Twilight, who suffers from trying to adapt an older character to a newer style rather than being designed with it in mind from scratch

I unironically enjoy the TYT style more because, yes, it's simple and evocative of the infamous CalArts style, but at least it's consistent and not filled with the kinds of errors that plague Make Your Mark, which has things like incomplete character lighting, lighting changing drastically from shot to shot in the same scene, empty scenery, barely any background ponies, which meant they had to put the models they did have in places that didn't make sense, like why would Posey be in Zephyr Heights, where she's part of like six ponies that came to watch the sisters sing for all the hours ever? Yes, 3D takes time, and it has gotten better, but the slow release hamstrings any real excitement towards what's coming next Izzy, please, go get some sleep

How the heck has no one in that 100 million pony population ever gone "Surely the other races can't be THAT bad" and gone out looking at some point in the past century+

The sound mixing in this was awful, and what on earth was that song montage pacing where it looks like she's in three places at once? Cute message, extremely poor execution (And Sunny poisoning her friends and causing their life to flash before their eyes was a rather morbid note for a holiday episode, don't you think? ) Have fun with that dental bill, Sunny.

Ah, so the pegasi are the British Empire of this Equestria That explains the stained-glass windows of the other tribes, and that rug of prophecy too

I've been rewatching it myself Currently in the middle of season 4 Found a lot of things to like and a developed a fresh new seething hatred for Discord

Man, imagine coming home after a long night of your own, only for your bedroom to be covered in animal waste Jazz really should've at least tried to clean up after putting the monsters to bed

I wonder if Misty made that garlic dish for Opaline

So, Izzy's had to change her name in the past, makes her own friends when lonely, and has a patchwork costume themed after her friends... Cupcakes is going to haunt MLP forevermore, isn't it?

Knowing where Discord's character goes makes this painful to rewatch, and I hate that everyone but Fluttershy are portrayed as being in the wrong for not giving Discord a chance when he given them zero reasons to offer him a chance in the first place Some people are simply pricks through and through, and I hate that Fluttershy was made into the very thing she says she wasn't for the sake of the plot

Sunny distracting Izzy with jangling keys felt really demeaning; Izzy isn't that stupid ...right?

Not... really - they're both leaders that want to help others, so it was more of a personality swap Would be interesting to see what changing the marks of ponies that are actually different would do, like Sunny and Pipp, or Hitch and Izzy

Kinda amusing that Sparky knows how to edit together videos and set up a death room - kid's already smarter and more involved with the plot than the Cake Twins, Flurry Heart, and Spike combined. This was definitely written for the Alpha generation and I wonder if it'll mature as it goes on.

Twilight has that weird "not made with this generation in mind" style - her face looks so wide compared to the G5 characters

Every fledgling artist's nightmare: running out of free stock and having to start creating your own work Also yay, Jazz's ears didn't vanish every other shot like they do in CG!

It's not the artstyle; she's regular-sized and doesn't have any regalia (granted, with all the animation errors in the trailer, it could very well be an incomplete model, or they simply wanted to use a Twilight people would recognize because MARKETING)

I wonder why Twilight was pony-sized rather than being in her queen form Maybe it's the Tree of Harmony? Or are they just ignoring The Last Problem the same way Dragon Ball ignores GT?

Wonder where Izzy got that Party Cannon from...

Very predictable, but Zipp's skating outfit was a fun design

I mean, rendering School Daze non-canon removes the vast chunk of seasons 8 and 9 If you want to be absolutely sure, remove the movie

Friendly reminder that earth ponies have to use their mouths when changing diapers, as seen in Baby Cakes Really can't get grosser than that

Wonder why this is episode 26 Also yeesh, the postal service has a lot to answer for, what with not checking the package to make sure it wasn't an animal - they're gonna get sued into oblivion by animal activist groups
