That Mental Health Awareness thread is a good idea, there's a lot I could say about my mental and even spiritual state, but knowing myself I'm sure I would end up writing a huge text, regardless of trying to write it in short. So i prefer to let the bunch of words about my person's problems for my profile's posts only, plus, I don't think this a good tjme for me to think much about it, I'm actually thinking that I need some distraction, there's already something I'm feeling strongly guilty for. But good that people are trying to talk about their problems there and connect with each other. ~☆

That I very likely doomed something that was being important and good for me, and it's being a repetition of the same mistake I made like 6/7 times since 3/4 years ago. I probably haven't changed at all. I'm thinking about ways to solve it and save it, but my pessimism and overall spiritual state are not giving me much hopes that it will have a future. I don't know why I keep doing that.

Not sure what you mean, but well, Twilight certainly is the element of production selling for them, or else she very likely wouldn't be there in G5 with the rest of the mane six. G4 characters are still very relevant for the brand, so is Twilight. G5 couldn't come even close to having such relevance for the brand as far I as know, though its popularity apparently became bigger than that of the classic generations, so that it was enough to at least guarantee the return of a few characters. Yeah I did notice that they indeed decided to expand the Cutie Marks concept into the overall storyline here, and not just keep it in a isolated side story like FiM did (CMC arc), I believe it maybe happens because they don't want to repeat the early structure of FiM with the friendship lessons, so they thought that the Cutie Marks being the focus could lead up to new ideas. Saying that because the story concept in the video really felt new for me. I don't remember very well the G5 story though, only some of Misty's arc and Opaline stealing everyone's cutie marks, so can't say much about it. -
I think it's pretty much impossible to tell. Countless of them, especially if you want to consider anime too, the asians are the ones who suffer from that the most because they like to make characters who look attractive or at least "perfect" in body structure, so that counts the face as well (influenced by their own cultures in the real world, which also seek for "perfection" in appearance), so it's very hard for you to not end up facing a anime where 80% of the characters are literally the same in body and face, with the only differences being hair, clothes and colors. Facially they most only likely change eye shape, some times not evem that. (Example) The Western Cartoons suffer less from that, since they are more open to more radical designs, you'll see them constantly making characters who look ugly, weird or just not attractive at all, which helps them to escape from this "Same Face Syndrome". (Example) But even with that, they still also suffer from that a lot, especially when try to make art styles more similar to anime, like...Equestria Girls. I suffer from that in my drawings too, so I'm as used to it as breathing ~☆

Hope you are doing well man, please take your time for you mental health, we don't know each other but I do know that there are people who really care about you here, so I wish you the best, I believe your friends wish the same. Good luck and have a good rest.

My Little Pony: Back to School (Equestria Girls)
StaryStory replied to Otaku-sempai's topic in Official MLP Comics & Books
Oh my, I remember seeing a lot of people making jokes about that cover art in a Mexican Facebook group in 2023 XD, a lot of them said that the characters (minus Spike) were likelly traced over images of real people and I even saw one of them sharing a image of a real woman in the same pose as Pinkie Pie 💦 I remember seeing a alternate cover for it featuring the same characters and it had a much better art in a style more accurate to the series (or the comic pages)- 4 replies

This game looks beautiful, Arc System Works always delivering something astonishing for the eyes, I really liked the japanese redesign for the characters, gives a strong anime face to them while still making them very recognizable and faithful to the comics / original designs. At best, I think only Iron Man really didn't receive the same treatment, I think he looks weird, not in a bad way because I think his design looks very well made, i liked it, but it also just seems too distant from the original one, looks more like something that came out straight from Kamen Rider or some other tokusatsu, but nothing like Iron Man (take this redesign and replace the yellow and red with other colors, you'll get what I mean), I think they really exaggerated in his one, maybe it's the purpose, but with the other characters being more comic accurate the discrepancy is big.
But everything looks really good, I'm curious to see more characters in the future. ~☆

I still don't think I really completely understand if this is something legit or not, I still keep my opinion that it was just a proof of concept that got either rejected or something else. Considering it's real, well I don't know what to say in terms of story, I can say that I don't like the absence of Fluttershy, Applejack and Rarity, i don't care about G5 characters, them replacing the rest of the Mane 6 would not be good for me I think, but they could show up later on. What I definitely like in the video though is the visuals, I really liked everything I saw, aside from some small details, Like, I'm not sure if I liked the extra layer of mane in Twilight and Rainbow Dash, in Dash especially I think it looks weird because it tries to have a lightining shape and I'm not sure if it works for me, I'm also not sure if i liked the colored hooves, at least not in some of the characters, I think I liked in Dash because it's just the same color as her skin (or fur) but darker, now Pinkie Pie's being blue I really don't feel it combines. Aside from these, I really liked everything else, the characters look very expressive and the overall art style is very appealing to me. Inspired clearly by G4 but at the same time it feels unique and great, they got it very right and looks infinitely better than Tell your Tale / 2D G5 in my opinion. That model sheet with Twilight, Pinkie, Dash and the 3 G5 characters though. I still don't know if it represents a different period of the development or something else. As I said before, features the same art style and visual from the opening for the 2021 Movie. I do think it looks good but I also feel the influence from "CalArts" in it, not as much as in Tell Your Tale obviously, but still, while it stays true to G4 in almost everything, the faces are completely different, which end up looking odd to me, so I really don't know If I would like it to see as the art style of a new series, especially because it shows a clear downgrade in details compared to the movie. I definitely prefer the art style from the concept video, whoever is the artist or the artists behind it, I hope Hasbro brings them back to work as the character designer(s) for the next MLP animated project (in case it's 2D). Like, It looks too good to be true for me, especially because for me Tell your Tale's visual was a example of laziness, so I wouldn't expect them to be this competent with the art again, that's why I thought about the possibility that it could be fake.

Hi, I would just like to explain myself about someone who interacted with me here in the forum a while ago. There was this user called "Starforce", he was the first person who really tried to approach me here and become my "friend", we interacted with each other during a part of 2024. I did notice some weird behavior coming from him, but nothing that really made me think that there was something wrong going on, in overall, he acted in a way that made me think he was a good person, and I even mentioned his name in my final post from 2024 along with some other users, saying he was the first friend I made here.
At the time of course, I was completely unaware about absolutely anything he made, I had no idea about what he did and I always thought he was a normal who wasn't really feeling connected with the site and its people, and had some problems with Staff, but I didn't imagine anything too serious and I decided to not ask anything due to my respect with other's privacy.
Recently, I received the information and learned about the many atrocities this user made in the past and the serious conflicts he caused here and harm to other users. A lot of very ugly things that he managed to hide completely from me.
So, what I have to say is, my experience with him at least wasn't harmful to me, likely because I didn't show any interest about the subjects he tried to push into me. There was something odd that happened but the evidence for it is lost. And I did notice now his manipulative behavior based on reports and some stuff I remember he said for me. But fortunately I wasn't affected negatively by him. But I'm aware there are many people who suffered because of him. If you were a victim of one of his actions and is reading this, I'm sorry, I hope you're doing well and managed to forget it, I think he's someone who deserves to be forgotten. So I won't be talking about him or mentioning his name ever again, unless it's necessary.
And now I hope someone like him or even himself never show up here again.

Hi guys, sorry for the whole month of absence again, couldn't stay true to my own words again, my bad, these are confusing and dark times for my mind and spirit. But I at least had the company of an angelic soul that helped me a lot by showing me a strong light ~☆
Anyway, I think now I'm really back definitely, there are things I still need to fix, my profile for now is under renovation, but I think I can already go back to interacting here again early, I'll at least try, missed this place, also, happy late birthday for those I couldn't celebrate in the right day ~☆
(And the day I return, I run out of water, so funny -.-)
Edit: also, yes I changed my name, it's "StaryStory" only now, it's the way I prefer, you can still call me by my previous (real) name if you want, but that name is now just past for me, my new name represents this current era of mine, thank you ~☆

I'm late, but still, happy birthday Interstellar Sketch, glad that this place and its people are helping your young soul to flourish. Optimism especially seems like something very important and it's very good that you adopted it and now manages to spread love in a powerful way, it's very important for people like me and I hope you continue that way. I really wish a beautiful future for you my friend, I'm sorry for not always being present, but I'll always be up to help you when I can, happy birthday! ~☆

I'm sorry Zigg, I was too focused in my work and I didn't remember that May 4 is importat day for you

If you could make G4 come back, would you do it?
StaryStory replied to JayTomz's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
I still support the idea of a Reboot, I wouldn't reject the idea of making new seasons to FiM or making a new midquel series between "The Ending of the End" and "The Last Problem", but I would still personally prefer a reboot. But any way of seeing the G4 characters again, regardless of the continuity, would be really the only way for me to have any minimal interest in new MLP content ~☆ -
Hi guys, sorry for the days of absence, again, I was supposed to return yesterday but I couldn't
💦 (and no, it wasn’t because of GTA 6, though yeah maybe I spent some time because of ir ~R☆)
I had to be absent because of a few things, but especially, because I'm being commissioned for multiple art works and it has been taking a lot of my time, I'm very focused on making them and they're very important for the customer.
So I just came to explain it, but I'll try to spend some time here when I can. Also, I need to advise that I'm accepting friend requests again, yeah just a few weeks ago I decided to remove everyone and I gave my reasons, but everyone change up their minds, I have a few reasons why I decided to accept friend requests again, but they don't really matter
. So, if you want to send me a friend request, feel free to do it! If not, it's okay too 
Anyway, I hope everyone's doing good and happy birthday to those I'm late for! ~☆

April 2022.
Such a complicated date for me to remember. Two individuals, trying to take me down, for not accepting my criticism. One a disappointed fan, the other, someone truly evil, at least it was what I felt. It was so fast, I was so desperate, I couldn't defend myself because of the shock. But for me, this wasn't even the worst part. There was a girl, a very special and good girl who tried to protect and defend me. She took care of me, got very close to me, I spent days and days with her, building a friendship that for me felt completely different when compared to any other I had. She became very special to me.
Unfortunately, there was so much negativity and people attacking me and others, it has corrupted my mind and consumed me with distrust. This led to our friendship facing a sad ending, where I thought that she didn't want to be my friend anymore.
Imagine you making everything for that person, taking care of it, giving it priority, becoming best friends with it, only for that person in the end not value your friendship as they should.
I still regret it to this day, she dedicated so much of herself just for me. I just can't even imagine how she felt after that. It's something I just can't forgive myself for doing.
A girl from this forum tried to be my friend and getting close to me. It was all going fine, but when I started telling her about this past, she wanted to get even closer to me, to the point where she was just reminding me of this old friend of mine.
Unfortunately, I had to stop her. I couldn't allow it, I don't know if her desire was truly to become my best friend just like that girl once was, but this was reliving a traumatic experience for me.
I'm just not strong enough to go through it again. I know it's a different context, time and place now, there aren't people attacking me anymore but only lovable people here, my mind isn't in despair. But still. I can't let it happen.
I had to unfortunately "refuse" her friendship. It was too fast, and the trauma is just too big and strong for me. If this disappointed her, I'm really sorry for her, but I'm just hopeless, and I believe that I just don't want to risk it anymore, and I am destined to live with this fear and the pain of this sin that I committed until the arrival of my eternal sleep. Maybe, even after it.
Sorry if this made you sad, but I just thought I had to share one of the reasons why I feel so empthy, pessimistic and "dead inside" nowadays. I always try to be positive with people here, enjoy what you have to share and all, I think it's good for my mind and spirit. But the pain and guilt never goes away.

Do you have any idea how much this breaks my heart? This is precisely what gets under my skin...
Someone who is as darling as you are... someone who does not mess with anyone... and they target the innocent and the kind simply because of their egos or the thrill of feeling power over those who cannot defend themselves or simply choose not to engage in such pettiness. I understand that this was on an entirely different platform... but if anything like this ever happens here or anywhere within my scope of abilities: Please tell me.
PSA on bullying or ANYONE trying to drag people away on Discord for gossip, etcSpoilerYou have to speak up. Staying silent is how these people work to disassemble the beauty of friendships and connections. They loathe it and try to sneak and work behind the scenes to break it apart.
I highly encourage people to connect in the community - observe who they are in the community as well as how they are to people in private.
And if you meet anyone who drags you away into Discord for 1 on 1 -- put your guards up! (Yes, you may feel special, you may feel shy) but the moment they hit you with drama or garbage about someone you do not even know -- this is GOSSIP. Either disengage from the gossip and politely tell them you wish to have no involvement in that: (observe them, if they get angry and drop you -- this is a red flag.) if they insist it is SO bad that you NEED to take their sides... get the other person involved in a group chat so that they can also tell their side of the story... otherwise, this is petty sabotage and an attack on that person's character.
Also, if the matter is not so serious for a group chat to resolve it more reason to drop it!
I am literally getting fed up with the creepy, rotten apple types thinking they are so clever with twisting the narratives in order to hurt others through false rumors or violation of privacy/conversations that they call "evidence." Involve the other person of the topic or drop the matter entirely, otherwise, "evidence" can be fabricated or taken out of context -- and then we have a situation where a victim is literally being painted as a bad guy in order to have people who normally would not bully, suddenly join in bullying....
As for your friend.SpoilerI will do what I can to help here. I understand it was years ago. But if she is anything like me... she takes her friendships very seriously and she still thinks about you. You remind me of a close friend I have on here whom I love dearly and I have told him before... if he ever planned to disappear from here -- to please keep in touch because I will always think of him -- forever. Even in 20 years!
So, please... try to find her. Try to reach out. You would be surprised just how precious you are to people -- even if you cannot see it in yourself... I will be here if you need anything. I will do what I can to help.

Dragon Ball Z Kami to Kami's credits are still my personal favorite. New version of a nostalgic opening theme and a quick look at the entire manga series. It's so simple, but at the same time so special to me. ~☆

Neutral. I believe I'm just surviving and doing what I believe is right. ~☆

I believe this morning the interactions here really helped to rise my spirit and make me feel better, I told you that this place always brings positivity for me, I'm feeling a little more alive now, thank you very much, you really have a mysterious power.
Well I have to go now, I have multiple drawings to do for some people and a few other things too, I'll be back soon, I wish you all a beautiful day

Beauty in the Simplest Things
StaryStory commented on Interstellar Sketch's blog entry in Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ~Ze Woods~ʕ oᴥoʔ
I think they both look very good in quality. I really like how dream-ish 1 and 3 feel. Beautiful place you live by the way ~☆ -
Why I Love Everything.
StaryStory commented on Interstellar Sketch's blog entry in ★~✧•°+Ze Cosmos+°•✧~★
I said this before but I'll repeat. I think it's terrible how such a young, innocent and pure soul had to go through this. Not getting love from the own mother during the most important part of your life, the childhood. But i admire a lot how you could be stronger than it, there was even physical abuse, but you could overcome it. I don't even know what to say honestly, I just know that, you're very strong, for having such determination, still being alive and always sharing a lot of positivity here. There a lot of mysteries in life, for me how you managed to overcome it is one of them. Maybe it's a surprise for me only, but it doesn't matter, that still shows how strong you are. I think you did something similar to what I did, but in the reverse. I don't treat anyone badly, but I feel that nowadays I am similar to how you were before, while in childhood I was like how you are today. I am very happy that you could change that, my friend. Hope you continue being this lovely and sharing this positivity. Hope you have a beautiful future ~☆ -
Not sure about Jesus, God and angels (not criticizing, I just don't believe it), but I agree about the rest.
This is a lovely place to make connections and memories.
