  1. I'm super late for this (American time, anyways) but.......

    HAPPY NEW YEAR! May it be wonderful and prosperous for all!

    Also, it's a new decade. Let's hope for a bit less horrible mainstream music and news events...

    :wub:

      Happy New Year! :grin:

      Happy New Year, my friend! B)

  2. I got leaked on the new "Pony Life" art style/announcement.

    What do you guys think about it?

    Personally, I don't really like the new, cartoony look the creators are going for:  so many modern kids shows have exhausted this art style to death. I don't know if this was revealed, but I really hope the show will at most have it's episode run time at 11 mins judging my the perceived tone they're going for in the show. Something like Recess, maybe. It'll probably be tedious if they keep the same running time.

      I'm not sure yet what to think about the designs... I've seen a lot worse, but I still prefer the FIM art style. However, I'm very glad the Mane 6 will have the same voices! :)

      Honestly, I like this style thanks to the same style being used in the comics.

      I'm interested in seeing where this goes. 

  3. Well, this was it.

    MLP:FiM was a wonderful and remarkable show to me; its characters were endearing, the writing was on point, the animation was at the least dated and bland and at the most gorgeous and colorful. It was a show I made happy memories with, connected with the characters, and so much more. I think what's truly special about MLP is that it shows that kids shows can be smart, funny, and interesting for all ages. MLP, as well as other great shows, shook the boundaries of what to expect from children's entertainment.

    I haven't seen the finale. But I hope it captured all that made MLP likable; it's smart and witty dialogue, the amazing and relatable characters, the goregous coloring and lighting, hell, even the lore was awesome!

    Here's to a show that was the butt of so many memes, but turned out to be much more amazing than many could have predicted.

      The animation style was simple but the characters were still distinctive, and it didn't get in the way of the storytelling, so on the whole, it all worked out OK.

  4. I hope you all enjoy the Season 9 finale! Although I won't be joining you on your hype train, I really do hope MLP has a sincere and wonderful ending. Again, please excuse my inactivity as I am trying to avoid spoilers and just have a busy life :-P. Thank you for your understanding and have a great afternoon/morning/evening!

    Also, this:

    Spoiler

     

    Spoiler tagged it just in case, you never know...

    1. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      Good morning, my friend! :yay:

      I hope you enjoy it too! :rarity: Good luck with the spoiler avoidance – it seems to have been quite difficult for many people, myself included. :please:

    2. imawesome

      imawesome

      @Tacodidra Yeah, I heard about the leaks :yeahno:. Those are never any fun.

  5. Can I roll over and die?

    So, I dug up some comments I posted as a guest on TheTopTens, and honestly, I eel like face palming with every word I wrote. Here's my sample opinion I wrot for the episode "A Flurry of Emotions":

     

    A Flurry of Emotions wasn't at all an episode I had extremely high hopes for,I just thought it would be all around fun. Unfortunately, this episode includes a weak beginning,and an awful script. However,Flurry Heart steals the episode with her adorableness,and mirror example of a kid. What I'm noticing is that MLP:FIM is making more two story episodes,with one being the major focus and one being the minor. This episode does that quite well, and I loved an MLP character who liked art.A LOT. Good moral as well. A mix of bitting off more than you can chew which is WAY overdone in my little pony,but includes some try to make time with others. I also find quite remarkable that so many side characters where thrown into this episode for good purposes. A step up!

     

    Out of all the things I could leave as my mark on the Internet, too... :eww:

    1. Tacodidra

      Reading my old posts makes me cringe too! :please: I don't think your review is that bad, though! :)

    2. imawesome

      imawesome

      @Tacodidra It's really just the grammar and spelling mistakes that make me cringe. Also the fact that the post was from only 2 years ago. 

  6. The urge to watch MLP right now is strong...

    Okay, so I cheated a little and watched the S9 finale trailer. Can you blame me?

    In fact, I haven't really kept my promise with spoilers at all, but I still haven't watched any of  S9/EQG/Rainbow Roadtrip yet, so truce? :mlp_please:

    1. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      That's the exact opposite of what I've been doing... :please: I've watched every episode, special and such (except for the most recent EqG short), but the finale trailer is something I'm avoiding. :adorkable: That's the one episode I don't want to know anything about before watching! :ticking:

    2. imawesome

      imawesome

      @Tacodidra  Makes sense. I just saw it in my recommendations an couldn't help myself. Which was probably for the worst considering my goal to not watch ANY FiM content until the Netflix release. 

    3. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      I can imagine it doesn't really make the waiting easier... :adorkable: Regardless, I hope enjoy the new episodes whenever you choose to watch them! :fluttershy:

  7. The urge to watch MLP is killing me right now.

    Sorry for the unannounced break; I was working as a camp counselor for a quick three weeks. 

    How is everything going?

    1. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      I'm fine, thanks! :kindness: I hope everything is going well for you! :fluttershy:

      As for the urge to watch MLP, I understand completely. :adorkable: I'm waiting for the next episode to air, quite impatiently. :please:

  8. Damn it, I want to watch MLP so bad what with the spoiler I just got. Must resist... ponies...

  9. Welp, just got another spoiler that it was

    Spoiler

    Sombra who destroyed the Tree of Harmony.

    Seriously, YouTube recommendations!?

  10. I'm trying to finally kick start my blog, yet I have no idea what to blog about. Any ideas? Thanks!

    1. TheAnimationFanatic

      You could go back and revisit old episodes of Friendship is Magic.

      @TheAnimationFanatic  Thanks for the feedback! I guess that could work, but I'd have to find a good approach to it. 

  11. Spoiler #3: Judging by a PMV I just saw,

    Spoiler

    it looks like Rarity has a love interest of some kind in the new EG special.

     I hope he doesn't become her boyfriend or anything because I've grown to ship RariJack SO MUCH. He looks like a douche bag though, doesn't he?

  12. Getting a tad bit worried about Season 9 now. 

    Although I'm aware that https://www.thetoptens.com/ is not the most reputable source for pony analysis, when I searched up "Worst My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Episodes", three Season 9 titles were in the top 10. I've already stated my opinions on why some of our fandom may still be a little too harsh, but given how The Top Tens works, either way it's a threatening warning sign. 

    Basically, The Top Tens is a platform where anyone is allowed to vote on what, for example, they find to be the worst countries to live in, best rappers, etc. What's startling about this, however, is that it's not just one person's opinion. This could go either way; maybe a bunch of uneducated dimwits pressed around on their laptop, or fair, unbiased MLP analyzers really think that three S9 title already deserve spots in the Top 10s. I don't want to dive into the comments section because The Top Tens does not mute spoilers, but if anyone can tell me if the comments are accurate, too harsh, or nonsensical bullshit that be great. I'm always striding to avoid overhype!

    Have a good evening/afternoon/morning!

      I'd guess it will be on Netflix after the season is over, that's what has happened before at least.

      It wasn't considered bad by most, but it wasn't as highly rated as the other two. And I agree, a fun episode but not necessarily a season highlight.

    3. Megas

      Megas

      Those 3 S9 episodes aren't even the worst S9 episodes, let alone worst episodes of the show. And seriously? Frenemies? Dark and Dawn? Both of those were great and much needed!

      @EDITH Yep. For some it was "Oh cool! Pony zombies!" for others it was "Oh great. More shitting on RD time". 

  13. I swear, the new "Awesome" Rainbow Dash reaction was practically MADE for me. 

    Hopefully S9's treating our favorite rainbow maned Pegasus well?

    Just for fun, which Dashie emotion below describes Season 9 the best? (Am I TRYING to get myself over hyped?)

      In the US, they're on hiatus... but episode 14 was released in China last week (and apparently the next two are out now). :adorkable: So it might not take many weeks for the rest of the season to be out in at least one country.

    3. CypherHoof

      CypherHoof

      The recent RD special hasn't been well received, although its not terrible, just a bit "phoned in" - I am not sure "common ground" was really a Dashie episode, although she IS the focus pony for it; lots of continuity there though, which is nice.

    4. Megas

      Spoiler

      @CypherHoofthat’s probably the best way to describe it. I didn’t hate, it was kinda dull, but given I had zero expectations for it, it turned out fine for the most part 

      Edit: oh your talking about Rainbow Roadtrip :p

  14. Hello again! It's been a while, hasn't it? :twi:

    I'm guessing a lot has been going on with the pone community, and I will crawl back into this fandom after Season 9 airs on Netflix. (I'm guessing it will, right?) I just came back to announce that I've gotten a second spoiler after going on MLP Wiki out of curiosity, and it's that 

    Spoiler

    Scootaloo does, in fact, have living parents. 

    I honestly don't know how to feel about this, but given I don't exactly know the context, I'm refraining from jumping to conclusions about the spoiler. 

    As for the EG specials, I'm guessing the CYOA one won't be on Netflix, so I guess I'll binge them after Season 9. 

    Happy belated 4th of July, and happy summer for all those who don't celebrate 4th!

      There's nothing in canon before S9, but Faust has said in interviews that Scoots isn't an orphan, but they hadn't set in stone her parents' characters in case they wanted to set a story around that.

      Faust obviously isn't in charge of the storylines any more, but those who are tend to treat her comments as canon anyhow.

    3. CypherHoof

      CypherHoof

      Spoiler

      Her aunts are wonderful though; if we can't have Scoots as Dashie's adoptive sister, having her with her aunts is the next best thing

       

    4. CypherHoof

      CypherHoof

      (Another thing does occur; Scoots' parents haven't been seen before, but Scoots' house has, and why would she have a house if she was an orphan?)

  15. In case any of you have not heard of the abuse going on at Fair Oaks Farm, I have posted the above video. I am socked and horrified this would ever happen. 

    Please be aware that there is violence and animal cruelty depicted in the video. Viewer discretion is advised.

      That was even worse than I expected... :sunny: And somehow I think this happens much more often than we know...

  16. I did it you guys! I haven't been on for so long I've reached 100 notifications!

    Don't know if that's a good thing, though. I'll probably be pretty inactive until S9 is released on Netflix.

      Congratulations, my friend! :D I've had 158 after being away for two days... and actually made it to 210 before clicking on the bell icon. :o

      I understand that. I've been doing my best to avoid spoilers too, though I won't have to do that for at least a month now... :adorkable:

  17. I'm back!

    I really can't tell if I've been gone for that long since I've been dodging S9 and basically the pone community like bullets, but I guess it doesn't hurt to check in. 

    Season 9 treating us well? (Please, no spoilers :please:)

  21. I thoroughly enjoyed this PMV and wanted you guys to check it out, especially with this being the last season. :mlp_smile:

    Enjoy!

      I hope you had fun regardless! :D I've never gone to one myself (I doubt I'd find the way out either)... :adorkable: I haven't done much, besides watching the new MLP episode and some racing! :ticking:

      And I’m guessing you were able to escape :wacko: .

      Those are fun :P . I wonder if there are any online ones :wacko: ... *can google*

  24. Spoiler #1: Something was lost?

    All I saw in a post was "Was losing THE THING just..."

    So, my guess is the Tree of Harmony got lost or destroyed?

    Don't tell me, though. 

    God, will this challenge be hard.

      @Lucky Bolt I appreciate you trying. :rarity:

  25. Okay, so I have two things to address, both involving MLP:FiM S9.

    First off, I've already seen MANY spoilers for episode 200, as I should. And strangely enough a lot of the spoilers involve Spike? :confused:

     

    Also, since this is the last season of MLP and I want to give myself the best viewing experience possible, I've decided to wait until all the episodes are on Netflix (including Spring Breakdown) and binge watch them old fashioned style. 

    Will this  be excruciatingly difficult to dodge spoilers like bullets AND avoid the anticipation of the new episodes?  Yes. But this is the last season of MLP, and I'm hoping to make it memorable.

      Good luck with that, my friend! :fluttershy: I wouldn't dare try something like that myself, I need to watch them all within a few hours, as I always tend to run into spoilers... :please:
