Misty Shadow

I honestly thought that she was a great villain, loved how much buildup she got. I do feel that some more complexity to her character was sacrificed to make her more of a comical villain, but she is so entertaining. 

Yes, I am also active on Derpibooru and FiMFiction.net. 

My top 5 would have to be...

5. The Manesquerade Ball 

4. Have You Seen This Dragon?

3. Secrets of Starlight

2. Missing the Mark

1. Roots of All Evil (both parts)

There were so many episodes I thought were awesome, but that is my top 5 from the episodes listed.

Why is the new villain a non-pony?

Can I see the leaker's history?

Anyone who knows about G5 leakers knows about mdash, given that mdash is the most prominent G5 leaker who got every MYM chapter release date right and has only ever shared information about upcoming G5 content that has turned out to be true (unless you count the Secrets of Starlight joke ). 

What did you guys think of the newest chapter of MYM? I was the one to make the discussion for the latest chapter on the forums this time.

Even as it's hard to say where things will go from here right now, I believe...

What did you guys feel about the latest chapter of Make Your Mark?  I know it was kind of weird with it coming out on Thanksgiving when every pony was busy, but I was able to watch everything early yesterday and even already have my full review of it (major spoilers in it, so read at your discretion) written.

Just like with the last two chapters, I absolutely loved it, that shouldn't surprise you. I legitimately think this chapter's two-parter is the best episode of the entire series, even better than Missing the Mark. Secrets of Starlight is awesome, even though it is in no way something that I could consider a finale. Despite everything that was circulating regarding MYM ending, G5's most accurate leaker shared this with us...

I always speculated that they could go with a continuation in the form of a follow-up show, but regardless, I feel it's best to judge this chapter on its own merits as opposed to judging it as a finale.  

Definitely better than last week's recap episode, even as I'm over that crazy MYM Chapter 6 spoiler fiasco. They went for some random humor here with how Pipp just started making bird noises, but I am legitimately curious about what they're going to do with Allura and Comet.  

Given our latest revelation...

There's no guarantee that Tell Your Tale will be the only G5 series going forward. It even says on the marketing slides calling it "the one and only ponable series" that plans are subject to change. 

Since I've already watched all of Make Your Mark Chapter 6, I finally watched this episode too and honestly thought it was a better recap episode than the one recapping MYM Chapter 4. Even though it was still obviously not going to be so good with it just being a retelling of what happened in MYM Chapter 6, I liked how we actually got to see the events of said chapter playing out in real time as opposed to in the form of Pipp narrating the events, the added gag with Opaline at the beginning, and how things actually played out slightly differently than in MYM at the end...

Red Bull, I drink one every work night and have somewhat of a fixation for it. It still doesn't beat coffee though.

Just want to say I still prefer this look for

older Spike

than the one in the old show

Oh yeah, I honestly like this design better too. This reveal's no shock to me and I'll say that I'm already enjoying how...

It's a 6 or 7 out of 10 for me. Not so good, but could've been far worse. 

I made a topic on this for everyone on the forum to see too, definitely necessary in this case. 

https://mlpforums.com/topic/201237-mym-chapter-6-spoiled-by-new-tyt-recap-episode/#comment-6180811

Saving the new TYT for next week, when MYM Chapter 6 comes out, is strongly recommended, given the situation. Wanting my first time watching MYM Chapter 6 to feel special, this is absolutely what I will be doing. 

Make Your Mark, for sure. Tell Your Tale is fun to watch, but it's no Make Your Mark. A good five minutes of entertainment every week or every other week doesn't match some of what I think is the best storytelling we've gotten from MLP in quite some time. 

An important warning to all G5 fans who don't want to be spoiled... 

Yeah, Hasbro has screwed up BIG TIME, completely spoiling Make Your Mark Chapter 6 with the new Tell Your Tale episode recapping it because waiting just a little longer to make TYT weekly again made too much sense.  For this reason, I will not be watching the new TYT episode until after I have watched MYM Chapter 6 next week. If you're going to do the same as me to avoid spoilers, be warned, they're already out there.

Honestly, I think this one was just as good as the last episode. Cool seeing a showcase of Misty’s magical abilities too!

Even with all the rotten food, it’s nice how even that gets resolved by it becoming fertilizer for the forest 

One thing that makes Misty Moves In better to me is it being more heartwarming, but another thing I do like about this episode that I didn't mention is the twist of Misty being the one who started the food fight tradition. 

Downgrade from Misty Moves In, but still decent. It could've done without, um...rotten food, but at least they showed that something good happens with it at the end. I also really enjoy how a song about Izzy trying to spread love goes so well with a food fight, but considering the chaos Izzy caused in the episode of that song's debut, I guess it's just natural progression. 

So much goodness packed into just four and a half minutes!  I know Misty episodes are always great, but still. I like how despite how much I like Misty, I still find her torment to make for comedy gold. Funny to see Alphabittle putting marshmallows in tea too, and the ending, like I expected, was highly endearing. 

For those of you who like re-watching G5 like I do, I made a discussion on the forum about this. 

https://mlpforums.com/topic/201124-watching-g5-multiple-times/

Since I usually find the episodes better upon re-watch, more so with MYM than TYT, I wanted to know if other people who watch episodes of the G5 shows multiple times usually appreciate things in the episodes more after a second viewing. 

Has anyone else here watched G5 multiple times as I have? I've seen all of Make Your Mark twice now and I've seen all of Tell Your Tale twice up to the fiftieth episode. I've also seen the movie twice and I very generally enjoy G5 content more when I watch it again. If you also like to re-watch G5 content, do you also generally appreciate it more upon re-watch? If you like to read and re-read the G5 comics too, feel free to discuss those as well. 

I have seen no concrete evidence in G5 at the moment that suggests it takes place in an alternate timeline or alternate universe, so no, neither idea is part of my headcanon. MLP's lore has always been screwy with there being plenty of contradictions and retcons in G4's lore, so "too many things not making sense" is not an indication that G5 takes place in an alternate reality. 

An official description is not a leaked description, lol.  When something from a company's production is leaked, that means it was something they wanted to keep private. An officially made description for an upcoming piece of media is meant to publicly promote it. On top of that, this description's hardly a spoiler, it's just something that entices the viewer reading it into wanting to watch Chapter 6 by building tension. 

I've not commented on this thread in a while, so I'll change that by saying that I'm fully up to speed with Helluva Boss. I thought the episode with Striker kidnapping Stolas was good, I thought the Beelzebub/Kesha episode that was meant to be the Season 1 finale was great, I was not a fan of the Moxxie/Millie episode with it easily being my least favorite episode of the entire series, I liked the episode with Fizzarolli and Blitzo working together a lot, and the most recent episode with Mammon was superb. Love Fizz now, his "F*** You" song beats the CeeLo Green version any day.
