  1. Looks like most G5 fans are not buying the "MYM Chapter 6 is the worst of G5" nonsense. :grin2:

  2. So it seems that Make Your Mark Chapter 6 is overtaking Chapter 4 in terms of popularity... Yeah, even though this guy doing the poll has defended G5...a good chunk of his audience is comprised of G5 haters and G5 movie purists. Chapter 6 dominating a poll like this despite the fact that some G5 reviewers are trying to make it out to be the worst of G5 is definitely something to consider.
  3. It's clear from the topic's title that it's about G5, something you had to have known before clicking on it. You have made it clear multiple times in this section of the forums that you don't like anything about G5, directly stating it here. Thus this question of mine... ...was not answered.
  4. Thanks for giving us the Element of Generosity badge, @Treeglow Flicker ! You're going to be another great part of the staff!
  5. Definitely some awful news, though this isn't happening because of a pony problem. This is happening because the toy market's in a bad place right now with people just not buying toys anymore as a result of the economy being absolute trash. I still always see pony toys on shelves too and I don't think Hasbro is going to stop making toy-promotion content, something that has lately been proven to be capable of being extremely successful, over this.
  6. Izzy would be proud! She should have you decorate her motor scooter next!
  7. I also really like Christmas, I hope you will have yourself a very merry Christmas in addition to a very merry time here on the forums!
  8. Oh...my favorite is actually Hitch. Does her being my second favorite before Misty came along count? Great to have a newcomer to the fandom! There is no shame in starting with G5 first, even as you should definitely keep going through G4 and hopefully watch all of FiM. Wish you a great time on the site!
  9. I can relate with not clicking with the "Everything from G5 has been on a downward spiral since the movie!" rhetoric at all. My high point with G5 has been MYM Chapter 4 (with the sixth chapter being a close second) and before that, it was MYM Chapter 2.
  10. Avatar: The Last Airbender's finale, Gravity Falls's finale, and of course, MLP: FiM's Twilight's Kingdom and MLP: Make Your Mark's Roots of All Evil.
  11. I've already discussed G5 criticisms I feel are bunk, so how about trying to get to the root of all the negativity? https://www.deviantart.com/mistybrightshadow/art/The-Root-of-G5-Negativity-MLP-Essay-1001126731 I think there's more to it than meets the eye.
  12. I did an essay on what I believe G5 negativity is rooted in. https://www.deviantart.com/mistybrightshadow/art/The-Root-of-G5-Negativity-MLP-Essay-1001126731 I think that the source of it runs much deeper than you would expect.
  13. Starshine Time is an awesome acquired taste tune for me, I can't stop listening to it now. I also wasn't that into Villain at first, but it grew on me. Like it almost as much as Opaline's song from TYT now.
  14. All comments about Chapter 6 are welcomed here, good and bad. However, you are deviating from the topic at hand. You don't have to type a whole essay beating a dead horse, bringing up an offsite discussion, and bringing up things that have nothing to do with Chapter 6 just because I didn't like an MLP reviewer's take on Chapter 6. If what I pointed out isn't right there for you to see in the show, then did Spike not teleport Sparky to the Dragon Stone? Did Spike not get Sunny and the dragons to safety by teleporting them outside of Opaline's castle? Did Violet Frost not explain the healing properties of the snow ahead of time? Everything I listed happened in the show, that's a fact. Comments from people like me are as welcome as yours, so people explaining why they don't embrace negativity for this chapter while backing up their arguments for liking it with examples from it is something you're going to have to learn to accept.
  15. I honestly really like bowling and find it to be a shame that there isn't a bowling alley close by me. Have some very fond memories of having fun bowling where I used to live.
  16. Seems Opaline is a fan of mine. :griiin:

  17. In the 4Kidz English version of Shaman King (2001) that I've been watching lately, they actually say the word, "jack***", uncensored. 4Kidz didn't censor everything, my childhood is a lie. Not just that either, some of the dark stuff that didn't get cut out in this dub is mind-blowing:Sunny-huh:

    1. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      It means a male donkey, so technically it's not swearing. :P But people will most likely interpret it that way, so it's still surprising to hear it in a cartoon. :dash:

  18. I'll point out that I have watched Dr. Wolf's review of MYM Chapter 6 in full. I wasn't impressed, he acted like Opaline "lost her complexity" because of a song despite the fact that this is the same franchise that has villains like the Evil 3 singing a song like A Better Way to Be Bad, completely missed the point of Spike being in the story with him serving as proof of how there can be unity between ponies and dragons, being the one who gives Sparky access to the Dragon Stone, and being the one who gets Sunny and the dragons out of Opaline's castle safely, and tried to frame the storytelling and pacing of Secrets of Starlight as "all over the place" despite the fact that everything was built up to, including the healing powers of the snow, something directly explained ahead of time. Don't buy what I'm saying? This is all right there for you to see in the show. The G5 analyst community just doesn't want to see anything contradicting their narrative, Celestia forbid we watch something for what it is and judge it on its own merits.
  19. Yup, this one is good. Of course it needs that obligatory fart joke, but it's funny and has a good song. I especially like how even Posey was impressed by the performance and the reveal at the end that the guy they thought was a critic was just a guy who likes drawing despite his appearance reminding me of the critic from Ratatouille. I was not expecting the real critic to be disguised as a chair.
  20. Except she did leave the castle, did all sorts of things to harm others, and almost took over Equestria. If you do not like anything about G5, why do you come to the G5 section of the forums?
  21. Too many favorites to count, but my favorite right now is Magic in Us and I can not stop listening to With a Little Creativity. BEST. IZZY SOLO. EVER.
  22. I have no idea why they're controversial. Unlike the dragons in FiM, they're not just jerks for the sake of it. Although it's hard to pick a favorite with none of them having that much character at the moment, I guess I'd go with Fountain. I'm interested in what her backstory with being locked in a dungeon would be about and a dragon, normally associated with fire, having water powers is cool too.
  23. Honestly surprised most are liking Chapter 6 best so far, even with it having my favorite episode of the series, the Roots of All Evil two-parter. Well-liked and generally regarded to be a good chapter as it is, the people who haven't liked it have been far harsher on it than Chapter 4. If you're curious as to how I would rank the chapters, it would be like this from worst to best... 6. Chapter 1 5. Chapter 3 4. Chapter 2 3. Chapter 5 2. Chapter 6 1. Chapter 4 Chapter 1, despite being far better than what it's made out to be, is easily the show's weakest part as a result of Atomic Cartoons still learning the ropes. Chapter 3 is a great holiday special, but I'm not ranking one special higher than a batch of episodes. Chapter 2 is even more underrated than Chapters 1 and 3, some people were even calling it confusing when I was able to understand everything going on in it perfectly and it only gets better the more you see how they're setting everything up. Chapter 5 is pretty good, even as I actually like Father of the Bridlewood and the Halloween special better than Family Trees. Chapter 6 was an awesome end to the show's first story arc to me and I already really like the setup for the next story arc in my favorite special. Chapter 4 is still my favorite part though with it having my second favorite special, my second favorite episode, and my all-time favorite part of the story, Misty's reformation.
  24. Did another video game essay, it's another Silent Hill one. https://www.deviantart.com/mistybrightshadow/art/Why-Silent-Hill-Ascension-is-Not-Worth-Hating-On-998810214 This one's about why the worst Silent Hill "game" you've never heard of isn't worth hating on.
