OverTheStars

I think it could go either way. Either they don't care anymore because it's cancelled, or because it's already leaked and most of the fans already know/ it's been happening so much that they can't keep up with it as well.

I like her design, voice, personality, and story. Being a little sister myself, I think some parts of her character are funny and relatable, especially in the episodes focused on her. As for the rest of the fandom, I feel like she's just a relevant character, and most relevant characters are given similar treatment (although her fans are a bit more passionate I think). I think another factor could be that a lot of her traits can appeal to a wide variety of people so it makes sense she'd have a lot of fans. Like when I was little I just liked the fact that she was a magical princess who was pretty, but a lot of older fans found her mysterious design and personality intriguing too.

I want to play Arkham Shadow so baddddd but I don't have anything to play it on As for your idea about a g4 series for an older audience...it's gotta be a no from me (and probably Hasbro too). I could maybe see them doing something like that in the comics, but MLPs target audience is and will probably always be for young girls, and that's okay since anyone can still enjoy and appreciate it regardless of who you are. I'd even argue that in later seasons a lot of the references or fan service directed towards bronies was kinda forced and bad. I also just don't think it'd really add anything other than "Heh...these ponies can say the F word and stab other ponies..." because a lot of what G4 fans love about G4 (characters, worldbuilding, etc.) really has a lot to do with how mature it is. Never once have I watched the earlier seasons and thought it'd be better if it was aimed towards adults. I don't want Hasbro to cater a ton to what bronies want because I feel like that would take away from a lot of the charm, MLP was good because it was a wholesome show with occasional dark moments and fantasy action sequences. If you took that away to make it edgier it wouldn't really be My Little Pony, it'd be My Manly Brony. Good for a fan fic/comic I guess, but I don't want Hasbro sinking any money into it. At that point, just make another horse show. Also I feel like if Hasbro suddenly started catering a lot to bronies and making things edgier I'd turn against everyone on this site and probably resent bronies as a whole

I don't hate Starlight, but I feel like her motive and redemption was kind of weak. Like, when I was watching her as a villain I thought "Woah, either she's evil just because she's evil (which is fine), or she has a horrifically traumatic backstory". But then her backstory was revealed and I was just like...that's it? And then she just gets a redemption arc? I mean, I understand that thinking you're losing a friend as a kid is incredibly difficult. As a kid, I lost multiple people in my life and it always felt horrible, but I don't think it would really drive an average person to do anything similar to what Starlight did. I understand how her line of thinking went, but it just felt like such an extreme leap to me. I think it'd be more interesting if she or someone she knew thought they were locked into a life they didn't want because of their cutie marks, creating resentment towards the system, but that might create a few more problems in the writing. I guess my problem is less of her being evil and getting a redemption arc, but more that I feel like other villains (Chrysalis and Cozy Glow) didn't get redemption arcs. It feels like there wasn't much effort for redemption for them, despite the fact that Starlight pushed back/tried to get revenge too and they still worked to redeem her.

I don't have anything meaningful to contribute, I just want more Transformers Maybe if I buy enough toys...

Not much of a story there. The show came out when I was around 4-5, my mom sat me in front of the TV at some point, and the rest is history...

Not sure how popular or unpopular this opinion is, but I'm actually fine with Twilight being an alicorn while the others aren't. Since she's Celestia's student, I assume that Celestia was training Twi to follow her in her footprints to be a princess and so it makes sense for her to become an alicorn. While I wouldn't have an issue with the other mane 6 becoming alicorns, I understand why they weren't. While they are still important and vital to protecting Equestria, they didn't train under Celestia for this specific purpose and I feel that unlike Twi, not all of them would really have a ton of interest in carrying the burden of being royalty. Also I don't think Flash Sentry is a horrible character, but he just isn't that interesting. I don't think EG needed any romantic plotlines and I feel like Twi having a crush on him has some odd implications.

Not sure how I'd feel...but I don't think I could do anything about it either way. It's not like I have her legally copyrighted or anything and in almost every mention of her she's linked firmly to MLP as an MLP OC, so I don't think I'd have any legal claim or ground to stand on. Maybe if they were actively selling merch of a stolen design I could do more, but if it was just as a background character I'm not so sure. I think it'd take a lot to convince me it wasn't a coincidence though, I feel like my OCs design is normal enough that her color palette and hairstyle could fit into the background with a few adjustments. I'd say I'd probably start to get a bit more skeptical if not only the colors and hairstyle, but also the cutie marks were the same. Although I feel like I wouldn't really mind if I got a shout out on social media or something. The only time I'd really have a problem is if they were actively profiting or taking credit from the design. Either way, I feel like the backlash of MLP stealing an OC with no credit would be enough for MLP to either compensate or just never try in the first place. It seems like the type of situation that anyone in the animation community would jump on.
