That ending is both incredibly positive and f***ing depressing.

[@zeltheelitebloodgulch674]

[@moniquebias7648]

LANGUAGE PLEASE!GEEEZZ people theas days.That was supost to be funny ,but realy your language.😄😄😄😄😄😄😒😒😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄i'll stop now.😰😙😄😀

[@Your_Local_Dumba]

Incitos Sol I know the end was so sad😢😢

[@bastepogi9580]

I think she is a robot guys and poor sweetie bell and do yu know dawe

[@chqrlnellqturner2162]

Thanks for your help to get some csee you have

[@BingBong-gt6oh]

That was... emotional... for a silly character from Friendship is Witchcraft, it was very different than I expected.

[@blankslate6364]

Yeah, and really, that's how some of my favorite fan works go in general (**cough** Fallout Equestria)

[@NightRainbow]

"It's gonna be Lion King 2" I just geeked out a little xD

[@DonaldD02]

I think 'assimilate' means she needs to blend in with them, ... not as in Borg... xD. I hope someone noticed the CMC3BFF xD cutie mark crusaders 3 best friends forever, then initiating self termination. Very heart wrenching to see Rarity react to her, then hug her.

[@blankslate6364]

Yeah, think you're right. I was in the Borg mindset :p

[@jaydeleon8094]

Donald and ref to fallout:equestria

[@sanitater7639]

"Sweetie, your mechanical skull" Jesus Christ thats hilarious

[@thecartoonydivaarchiveyes8924]

When Sweetiebells (I think that's her name) eye was broken IT HAS THE APERTURE SCIENCE LOGO IN IT :D

[@barbiecountryman6859]

I think we should call her cyberbell Reason:because every villian needs a name

[@barbiecountryman6859]

Here name is now sweetiebot

[@christopherx9492]

as soon Rarity hugged sweetiebelle I cried my eyes out I love this animation

[@derby378]

Easily one of the best pony videos of 2017, but tragically overlooked by too many.

[@SuperRavensfan101]

Damn that was heavy and light at the same time Also an SFM I can say was enjoyable and well made 10/10

[@zackOOO-nz9rh]

"She just took alot of damage ,suddenly." SUDDENLY?? SHE JUST FELL DOWN A CLIFF!

[@HippyAngel001]

Poor Sweetie Belle.. =,(

[@fnaffan7965]

MAN CLEAN U MOTH!!!! IF U SAY THAT DONT BE IN THE INTERNET!!!$!!

[@moniquebias7648]

WHY DO YOU LIKE THIS GUY!!!HE TALKES TO TO TOOO MUCH IN ALL OF HIS VIDEOS HE MADE AND DOES NOT CARE ABOUT US TRYING TO HEAR THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HATE IT😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠👿👿👿👿👿👿👿

[@raid991]

Lol you idiot lmao

[@Pegasix21]

You mean Sweetie Bot

[@troyvdy7606]

I don't know what happen when bottom mash notice this!!

[@cassandra8419]

*explodes from happiness that you decided to react to this*

[@blankslate6364]

Don't have a fireheart attack on me

[@cassandra8419]

?

[@dragonstar2387]

*+Fireheart* It' s a pun on your name and the term "heart attack".

[@Pegasix21]

*Squee*

[@ponyempiresunite9702]

Fireheart Popped a lens.

[@ShayTheValiant]

Alright, it's time for another video. This one seems to be about Sweetie Bot, and I haven't seen much with her in it. So let's see what this is about. And... play. 0:07 Every time I see a robot pony, I always think about Pony.mov. "Crush. Kill. Destroy. Swag." 0:31 That sounds wonderful. 1:01 *DEATH AND DESTRUCTION!!!* 1:22 Like I said, "Crush. Kill. Destroy. Swag." 1:35 Houston, the video is a go. I repeat, the video is a go. 1:40 **squee** Who would want to steal a bench, anyways? 1:52 Is Scootaloo trying to be a campaign manager again? 1:59 Of course Derpy is a mail courier. I mean, that's basically canon now. 2:04 Bender: "Do a flip!" 2:11 "Marshmallow OS v2.4". Of course she's a marshmallow. 2:21 Sweetie Bot: "Uh, it's just a contact lens." 2:28 Come on, Rumble. She won't do anything. 2:39 Sweetie Bot: "My cover has been blown! I must evacuate!" 2:52 Isn't that the story of Sweetie Bot? Wasn't it that everyone, even Rarity and Sweetie herself didn't know she was a robot? 3:08 Timberwolves from the show look a bit better from these ones, and they're both 3D. 3:26 Sweetie Bot: "Who am I? Am I nothing more than a soulless assortment of metal? Is that what we all are on the inside: soulless assortments of metal?" 3:43 What happens when you blue screen. 3:48 Sweetie Bot: "Say 'hello'... to my little friend!" 3:52 Why does it say "Thrakerzod" at the top? When did this become "Mentally Advanced Series"? 3:55 Sweetie Bot: "Prepare for termination!" 4:22 Let's not talk about "The Lion King 2". 4:30 Doesn't she have jetpacks, though? 4:52 Rarity: "Oh, Sweetie Belle! You were too beautiful to be a robot!" 5:14 I would not go near that. 5:29 "Set phasers to hug", indeed. 5:31 Rarity accepts her sister as a robot. Interesting. 5:42 I was sort of expecting Sweetie to open her eye again and it would be glowing red. 5:47 -tie Bot. 5:51 Now if only the same thing can be said for Trump. 6:50 Or hooves. 7:02 Everything you want in an SFM. 7:29 I was surprised there wasn't some kind of twist that happened at the end. 7:50 Of course you would be excited for a "Fallout: Equestria" song. 8:07 **hugs laptop** | That was pretty good. The animation was good and the video told a clear story. That ending symbolizes that everyone should be accepted for who they are, no matter their skin colour, religion, or beliefs. It's unfortunate this world hasn't completely done that yet, but we are getting closer to that goal. Thanks for the video, BTP. And thank you for the reaction, Blank! Until next time, I'm signing off!

[@blankslate6364]

Personally, Sweetie Bot takes precedence in my head over R-Dash 5000 Though probably because I've seen FiW episode 5 far too many times

[@mattirrodraca2807]

Blank Slate just to let you know assimilate is when a person or group adopts the culture of the country or group they became part of

[@goldkitty4ever168]

Jake Berango so long but it tells it all :D

[@muhammadfarel7046]

OMG YOU WRITE ALL OF THAT!?!??!?!! JEEZ YOUR A BOSS

[@alexkuntmm7201]

I usually don't like SFM..but this was really Cool!

[@janicevdnrh2yhshshz3]

diy

[@MrThunderman1984]

So I watched the actual video before watching the commentary, and when you said "set phasers to hug" 5:23 I just couldn't help but to laugh out loud because you literally predicted what would happen 2 seconds later.

[@blankslate6364]

To be fair, I knew the song beforehand. :p

[@MrThunderman1984]

Blank Slate thank you for that reply. I have had youtubers where I send them a message commenting on their work but didn't get a personal reply like that. Thank you.

[@MrThunderman1984]

Blank Slate thank you for that reply. I have had youtubers where I send them a message commenting on their work but didn't get a personal reply like that. Thank you. Resending this comment so you might see it

[@blankslate6364]

No problem. I did see the first comment, but I'm not good at responding immediately and replies get lost in the message history.

[@MrThunderman1984]

Right! I completely understand that sentiment. I tend to comment on a lot of things. Again, Thank you for responding to me so quickly.

[@TeraunceFoaloke]

That ending to the video is very sweet and heartwarming, and also sad.

[@wyvernnemecek595]

Although FiW never made me laugh like MAS did, it had interesting ideas for an AU that’s become a baseline for a lot of content creators. FiW gave us an RD with astigmatism, veteran AJ, deserter Rarity, dragon-pegasus hybrid Fluttershy (they should’ve explored that more), Gypsy Pie and Abusive Twilight along with Sweetiebot. These ideas are intriguing to say the least and can lead to so many possibilities for world building, character development and discussion(s). FiW never went beyond just poking the surface, as they never really skimmed it either, but the fandom has and that’s where this vid comes in! The idea of a cybernetic pony developing sentience (the awareness of the surroundings and existing) and eventually sapience (the awareness of living, the self and thought) amongst legitimate equines, is a topic that could get philosophers, psychologists and those expanding robotics going on a field day of discussion and theorizing for weeks! I’m glad I’m a brony, and it’s vids, fanfics, etc. like these that are the core reason for it. (The nsfw stuff’s just a bonus 😆) Thank you for making this experience of a video Bench Thief Productions, and thank you Blank Check for reacting to it and getting those less familiar with these things more acquainted with them. Now, if I’m to be excused, I need to run away from the feelz train about to run me over at 200 mph! *Shrieks of fear follow me as I run from the locomotive in question*

[@themadhoffer5802]

Oh man. usually I'm not a fan of sfm animations, but this was both powerful, and amazing.

[@KorilD]

I'd not known about this sfm until this react, and damn..! Thanks for bringing this to my attention (I needed a good cry today).

[@zeroponycreations3360]

Oh my gosh the're doing fly like you next! That's awesome! I love that song, it's actually something i've considered making an animatic for at some point in the future!

[@blankslate6364]

Ooh, would love to see that. Seeing Velvet jumping off the rooftop XD

[@zeroponycreations3360]

yeah, but something like that is quite a ways away for me :P

[@thatautisticbrony7847]

Blank’s one of my favorite react people/ponies/channels, and this video is another reason why.

[@alexd531]

if you noticed the protocalls and the details in the program script, theres a conflict between the glitching with her program to kill or comfort her friends and wether they were hostiles or not. and the memory wipe and back up protocall was due to her questioning her identity and oversteping her protocall intent

[@Alicia-im1bp]

I cried when Rarity hugged her in the end 😭So beautiful "WERE SISTERS FOREVER" Put a little love in her heart:) We love you Sweetie belle!!

[@hanycita]

I love your reactions~ XD ♥

[@HNKNAChick52]

I watched this on my own before watching your reaction to it. I have no idea why but my first viewing made me cry

[@shadowspector3611]

The animations so emotional and exciting. I loved every second of it. I hope you react to Destabilize part 2, Lost In Data when Bench Thief Productions animates it.

[@morder4725]

You finally reacted to this one

[@lightningchaser6637]

To assimilate: to blend in to a new society

[@sweetiebot8061]

I love destabilized too. Both the song and SFM.

[@miunce]

... o.o OMG WHY MUST IT BE SO IMOTIONAL also i love this SO MUCH!!!

[@OfficialXMLmusic]

Hey. There's a part 2 to that song. Its called 'Lost In Data'. There's no animations for it yet though.

[@BLUERAYGUNER]

3:02 doesn't Assimilate mean to fit in?

[@rpcsa8]

Gg I loved the destabilized ome its good as heck

[@ninaherschleb1349]

Assimilate means to become like those arround you and fit in

[@atiliopoolcartoonawesome]

[@elisvsa]

this made me cry

[@JEFFTHEKILLERsilva]

I LOVE THIS SONG

[@sournote8610]

That made me cry a little...

[@sinrkidd]

Assimilate means to be taken in and that what's sweetie belle wants

[@geoserenity]

*sweeping up after the initial rush* ...hm? oh er...great video choice. i'd say like if you want blank check to react to totally legit recap equestria girls, but i'm confident in how good it is.

[@Vampie29]

I'm just glad that sweetie Bell is ok.

[@dumchumps8698]

I really like this SFM, it has inspired me to completely rewrite an idea I had for a charterer in completely different Fan-Fiction unrelated to MLP

[@AstraeaTheKit]

ngl, i love the fact that you have no cutie mark, you just have IOU taped to your flank

[@SpedaHooves]

I WAS CRYING THE ENTIRE TIME

[@smolmint9858]

that is adorable.

[@sardine3374]

your the best pony youtuber

[@zeldastar9781]

Blank slate i'm very surprised you haven't done a reaction on Snowdrop.its an amazing animation and very story driven

[@blankslate6364]

It's because I had seen the video before my channel existed. There won't be one, the only thing from SillyFilly I have is Fall of the Crystal Empire

[@zeldastar9781]

Ah,got it.:)

[@peppystyloz4829]

that was so emotional omg..

[@lovercatlovessans6744]

[@Bornblackpinkfan]

[@claricetravis5755]

I Love You Blank Slate

[@uramisugi]

OML THE FEELS I CANT-

[@zeltheelitebloodgulch674]

[@rosie_cuney1385]

[@garrettbuckallew7722]

Stop crossing out the 6 and adding a 7 just pick up new checks

[@erikamendez881]

I watch this so much and it was sad at the end when she cried.

[@chrismayer3919]

Hell, we're ALL machines! Not as many bells/whistles as Sweetie Bot, but machines nevertheless...

[@thatonegeek5164]

ink: it made me cry for 2 reasons ErROR: wimp ink: HEY ErROR: sorry hunny

[@XinnaBun]

[@RS-oj7dn]

Love how the guns are half a sentry from tf2 "sentrybelle" is new meta

[@ryanbrown9145]

I cryed waching the real one and this one

[@phoenixamaku5551]

I really hope they continue, but supposed 2 strikes have caused them to leave youtube.

[@blankslate6364]

Are you talking about Bench Thief? Or Sherclop?

[@phoenixamaku5551]

Silly Philly Stuidos, I thought they worked on this project but i guess it was something else i saw their name in

[@blankslate6364]

Silly Filly stopped animations because the KZbin algorithm is generally screwing them over, so they aren't getting featured and can't make enough money. Full-time animation is no longer viable for most, unfortunately.

[@phoenixamaku5551]

Ya Its sad whats going on with that, but thankfully some channels are still going strong like inverted shadow and others so ya its a load of crap really

[@-hit6570]

Aww I love Silly Filly animaations urgh screw you youtube algorithm

[@samurai2871]

There is a sequel to this. (A song only as far as I know) it’s deep as far as stories go.

[@enderrosemultiverse1262]

I loved that 😊

[@LokiAndKirby]

This episode scares me every time

[@leoflores8174]

When I first watched this.. I cried..

[@moffant4916]

Rarity is Best Pony.. man that stuff was messed up.. right in the feels.

[@marcorust3225]

Looks like aperture and glados must really really love testing in equestria dont worry its for science.

[@requiemwolf8586]

I fell like this was what Danse was feeling when he found out he was a synth in fallout 4.

[@ToonzyTtv_]

[@Robinwinwin]

one question How he sweet bell turn into robot?

[@samurai2871]

Forgive me if you already knew this But there is a sequel to this song (no video yet) Made by Prince whatever They wrote the song for this video as well. It seems that these guys are interested in making a video for it, but that comment was 4 months ago so I’m not sure. Either way I actually like the second song better (which says a lot cause I absolutely love this song) the sequel Lost in data Is sadder, deeper and well I won’t spoil it for you. I know this video is old and you may not see this, but here’s hoping you’ll review that song. 🤞

[@Moonimii]

what did sweetie not say?:NOTE: this is just guessing : get away from me!! I'm, dangerous! I don't want to hurt you!

[@2Half101v5]

They need to make a sequel
