Would you rather have G4 animation for G5?

Would you rather have G4 animation for G5?
Absolutely, Positively, NOT!

Please stop, i am so tired of ugly flash animation, please never again. The new Animation looks great, please stay this way G5.

Also i dont understand in general why changing the style more often than not causes a riot with fans, arent fans supposed to be supportive? No? Okay, then i officially distance myself from the term fan and simply call myself a supporter from now on.

EDIT : Yeah, i can see the Hypocrisy in my post. 

Never mind what i just said. 

But still no, love the G5 Style, please keep that one.

No I rather a new style whether it be 3d or 2d 

[GatebreakerGT 34]

I can't really say because we haven't seen too much of G5's animation, but if I were to choose regardless. I would more than likely say that G4 style I would prefer due to my 2D bias. Hoping that G5 delivers and ends up being great with their CGI! 

[PinkiePie6134 19]

I've changed my mind about wanting it to be g4 animation cause I guess a new generation needs its own distinct style,but I think I'd prefer maybe a different 2D??But even the 3D looks nice:)

Though I wouldn't mind them reusing the G4 style, ideally I'd want a slightly different 2D Style. Maybe something like the toon boom style of the 2017 movie. I think the 2D character models with the semi-3D, detailed backgrounds look neat. I hope that the G5 series ends up having a 2D style similar to that, for it would be different enough from flash while keeping the same 2D charm. Also, I'm fine with the G5 movie being 3D, but if the whole series is, it could become aesthetically unpleasing real quickly (especially due to having less of a budget than the movie).

I've always liked the G4 and movie animation styles. I stopped watching the show in 2015, mainly due to elements that made the whole production firmly a children's show, namely rather simple story writing and high-pitched or childish voice acting and sound effects. Assuming that hasn't changed much in the years since, no matter what they do to the animation for G5, it's not going to interest me.

I agree.

I care little about style,as long as it doesn't get worse（Pony life style is too casual for me）.G4 style is good enough for me.If there were a Season 10,I would still watch it.Good looking may appeal to me for a while, but if the plot and characters are disappointing, nothing can make up for it.

[EpicEnergy 23,190]

I kinda like the animation G5 has from what I've seen.

[Ellie Daras 9]

I think it's hard to say for now. I want to see more of G5's animation to judge if I prefer G4's animation or not. I want to compare both MLP Movies with each other along with comparing the show when it comes out. 

But honestly, I don't think a new animation style is the end of the world. It's kind of par for the course for MLP and I think it could look great given sometime in the oven. But G4's animation is hard to top, so we'll see what happens.

I don't really care about the animation style. I just wish that it was 2-D instead of 3-D. 

[Sparkly sparks 512]

the G5 animation style made the characters look kinda fleshy instead of fluffy

here's hoping it improves over time

you mean, smooth?

like they're made from plastic?

I agree, they look way too smooth and not nearly as fluffy as they could be

[Paleopony 701]

I like the G4 design but I like that the animators are trying something that is completely new.

[JMTV99 1,352]

I would love for G5 still have the same animation as G4, but I gotten used to the CG animation overtime, so I don't think that's necessary.

[Sasoriman 134]

They should've gone for ToonBoom. Flash is great, I don't care what anyone says about Flash, but it would've been nice to see what kinds of expressions they would've made with ToonBoom. 

[Light Festival 1]

With 3D art the G5 is likely going to have a lot of somewhat G4 - styled fanart,as it is hard to replicate it without a computer. I have mixed feelings about this. I feel like the old style is excellent,but also that the new one is kind of refreshing. 

Best!
