Zhortac 1,474 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 dear gawd, I hope not. Aside from the fact its stupid, it would sound like an entirely new show. 1 Feel free to add me on steam if you want to play something. Also don't be afraid to message and talk to me. I've had bad luck when I start a conversation, so I more then likely won't start one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
child of the night 271 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 While it is a possibility it is very unlikely because the show has been known for the friendship is magic name, I would not count it out though, you never quite know what the developers are gonna throw at us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostfacekiller39 23,860 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 Just as long as it's the same show, I don't really care what they call it. This^ It shouldn't matter how the name of the show sounds, it matters about if it's a good show. I thought "Friends" was a good show, even with an incredibly generic and somewhat cheesy name While "Rainbow Power" doesn't roll off the tongue like "Friendship is Magic," as long as the quality of Rarity's plot the show itself is in check, I'll dig it 5 He who is Positively Obsessed With All Things Rarity!!!

Nine 707 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 Just as long as it's the same show, I don't really care what they call it. Yeah .. I suppose. If anything, that rebranding would send the signal that they're committing to extending the lifetime of this generation of the franchise. FiM won't go on forever .. but at least this would give me some assurance that it'll go on longer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,689 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 If it's the same show, call it what you want. I highly doubt that it would get rebranded though. 2 Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangocoolguy 433 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 (edited) Well, that would help explain how they'll make the show run 5 more years... Kinda like how Power Rangers keeps going by changing titles and concepts (though hopefully MLP woun't take things as far...)

Kinda like how Power Rangers keeps going by changing titles and concepts (though hopefully MLP woun't take things as far...) But that became stagnate pretty quick. That's why they went all out with In Space, and why everything after was following the sentai theme of, "new team, new group." 1 Feel free to add me on steam if you want to play something.

SBaby 660 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 I have to agree. As long as it's the same show, it doesn't really matter what they call it. I remember when Power Rangers became Power Rangers Zeo, and a lot of my friends were saying that it was the dumbest name ever (though it's a far sight better than Power Rangers Neo, which is what they were originally planning to call it). But once it came out and we all saw the new enemies that the Rangers had to deal with, we were hooked again. So if the same thing happens to FiM, it's alright as long as the characters and overall concept remain the same. A Winner Is You!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metemponychosis 1,262 May 4, 2014 Share May 4, 2014 My god... They are going to turn MLP into Sailor Moon! I think this is not going to happen. It would be very dumb to change he show too much. 1 https://www.fimfiction.net/user/32864/Metemponychosis For dumb, self-important fics about mythology, ponies and fascist griffons that can't figure friendship out.

Pastel 7,630 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I actually prefer Rainbow Power over Friendship is Magic. So yeah, my avatar represents well my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootaloodle 1,623 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 What's in a name? a rose under any other name would smell just as sweet- William Shakesphere As long as it's the same show then it's not a big deal imo, although I prefer Friendship Is Magic over Rainbow Power, Rainbow Power sounds like a generic kids show somehow, idk why it does to me and FIM dosen't but yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyBunny 57 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I like the name Friendship is Magic better but I guess as long as they don't name it My Little Pony I Pooped My Drawers i'm ok with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forlong 1,726 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I'd think Hasbro would have made a statement regarding that by now, if it were true. However, they could be waiting until season 4 draws to a close. If we don't hear anything about it by mid-June, I'd say they definitely aren't going to do it. 1 Check out my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5qXAcUzrizEHvorGalU5jg?feature=watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenit 190 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I woud like that rebranding. yes. yes. sounds better than friendship is magic./ babadumbadum BAH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverseFaller 2,483 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 Possibly. I wouldn't be surprised, since it seems like every pony is getting Rainbow Power. I saw a set at the store the other day that had some rainbow power ponies in it, and Doctor Whooves and Vinyl were in it. With Vinyl getting a lot of attention lately, it may be possible that the mane 6 might not be as prevelant in season 5. Since all of the ponies have this rainbow power to fight off evil, other characters might start to get more attention since the mane 6 isn't as needed.

Kawaii Besu 28,011 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I'd stick with the current one 'cause, if it did really get renamed, potential new bronies will reject it instantly because the title sounds 'overtly girlish'. I'd still keep 'Friendship is Magic' because that's how the show flows, and potential new bronies will find it interesting... Just my two cents... Count to numbers with 7 digits!

FlyBunny 57 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I think it's just another line of toys, why wouldn't you hype it up a whole bunch and then release the toys the same time as you rename it? Rainbow power toys already out, don't think they are renaming it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZukoIsBestPony 561 May 5, 2014 Share May 5, 2014 I don't mind either way. They find a way to change things up every season, if this is the next step than I trust the creators completely. 2 My newest fanfic: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/196882/internal-struggle (Dark, rated T) Some oneshots: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/196109/scootaloos-past (Sad, rated T) https://www.fimfiction.net/story/192991/a-dragon-and-a-princess-walk-into-a-bar (Slice of life, rated T) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
