As for everyone else yes Applebloom, Sweetiebelle, and Scootaloo also Lil Cheese would've been perfect for g5.

[@TheSongGame]

honestly, i was fine with g5 being its own thing, but when it started changing the g4 lore, like come on, g4 had an ending with a resolution, friendship stuff, book closing and all that, felt like a nice bow on top to wrap the series up for good, then hasbro came back, tore the bow apart, blew it up and set it ablaze like "haha jk lol twilight actually started racism version 2 and then died or something idk"

[@TheSongGame]

the only way i see them coming back from this is making it so that twilight starting racism was just propaganda told by pro-war dictators and wasnt actually real or something, idk im not a billion dollar company

[@steampunk-llama]

Yeah it should’ve been it’s own established continuity. G4 gave little nods and references to prior gens in the form of reimagined G1 characters like Capper and Tirek, but it very clearly made them unique to G4 rather than insisting they were the exact same entities. You can still watch the first G1 movie in its own vacuum since the existence of the G4 Smooze doesn’t retroactively change it from being a huge threat, they can both exist freely and both play into the respective strengths of each continuity. Meanwhile everything G5 has been developing throughout its seasons completely retcons all the efforts Twilight and her friends made throughout G4 just so they can justify the new protags going through similar storybeats, and makes Sunny and her friends look like ripoffs instead of being their own characters

[@Kmn483]

Counterpoint: Every other generation changed the prior generation's lore. Remember that each generation isn't a sequel of the last. It's a reimaging of the series itself. The past of g5 is NOT g4. Yes it borrows very heavily from g4, but consider g5's past as an AU of g4, rather than g4 itself.

I’m not saying it should be outlawed for kids to use iPads I had one to, but even mine was monitored.

[@sinnamonsol]

Tbh my take on it is that it feels like there isn’t really any heart into it you know? Lauren Faust wanted to make a show with enticing characters and not just every other baby show where kids are talked down to. This is one of the main reasons g4 took off as much as it did, because it had an actual story. Lauren was an ACTUAL ARTIST that had views and passion for the show whereas g5 … just feels like every other Disney jr type show you’d see nowadays. I’m going to be completely honest… I haven’t even finished watching episode one of make your mark. It’s so unbearable to sit through and it feels like those shows your forced to watch while baby sitting a little cousin. Like if it didn’t have the mlp franchise name on it, I wouldn’t be watching this show. And my last thing is I wish I’d had just been a reboot instead of trying to connect off of g4. G4 had an amazing ending and it was, well, AN ENDING. it didn’t need to be continued. It feels like the only reason hasbro decided to continue it was because of its huge success, however in the process if feels like they’re also sort of ruining g4 characters and story. Like??? Twilight seemed so out of character. And that DRAGON DUDE. Mlp didn’t have any of that “haha fart burp” type of humor but this goddamn dragon brought it to it. It looks like a character from that stupid dragon mobile game ad. (Look up pink dragon meme on TikTok and you’ll see what I’m talking about 😭) LMAAOOOO anyways sorry for the paragraph I’m just really passionate about my hate for g5. (Also sorry for bad grammar English isn’t my first language)

[@beatfox15]

First off, thank you so much for your comment it always nice to see others opinions on certain topics. Good job ❤ but yeah I totally agree with your whole comment, the show is really bad and has very little redeeming qualities. I’d rather watch paint dry than look at that show again lmao 💀

[@devonwhite4706]

Exactly, That’s how bad this gen is everypony, and it is plain disgraceful to Lauren Faust and how it disrespects the source material!😡 And also one thing I need to bring up for G5. Why is there exactly ZERO epic or memorable moments in the story?! And also a few things, what happened to the other villains? Where are Twilight and her friends? Where’s anything from G4?! But the biggest question, WHAT THE 🤬 HAPPENED TO THE REAL GROGAR?! If G5’s supposed to be a continuation of G4 then they are failing pathetically, and tremendously hard!😡

[@sinnamonsol]

ALSO one more thing I just remembered that I don’t like about g5. I hate how they’re just making everyone alicorns left and right. Like 😭 THERE WERE ONLY EVER MEANT TO BE 2 IN THE FIRST PLACE, LUNA AND CELESTIA!! 😭😭😭 and now we got Sunny and eye burning Opaline over here becoming them like it’s an everyday occurrence.

[@psychotophatcat]

Well Spike had some burp/fart humor in the early seasons, before they let him just be the more unique snarky self care king he deserved to be.

[@Lugiamasterbrony]

Didn’t they do a whoopie cushion joke in a season 8 or 9 episode? Also g4 so far has more alicorns. Heck people joked that starlight was going to become an alicorn.

[@theggamer2824]

This may be a unpopular opinion but I feel like they shoulda stuck with 2D animation all the way because attempting to try to recreate the NG movie is impossible. Kinda like tangled the series. And if they really wanted to try 3D animation they should try a sequel movie. You know what I’m saying right?

[@djtundra8011]

2D > 3D

[@Commenter839]

On one hand, yeah, making the show in 3D was a dumb idea, since it's really difficult to make it look good on a TV budget, let alone look as good as a movie. On the other hand, if Tell Your Tale is any indication of the art style this show would've had in 2D, maybe it's for the best they didn't go that direction lol. I also feel like hiring on celebrities to voice the main characters in the movie was a dumb idea, since they'd obviously be too expensive to keep indefinitely. G4 had real voice actors do the voice acting, and everyone in that show sounds great!

The main issue with this characters is that they have little to no room for growth. In G4 characters nad some goals they wanted to achive like Fluttershy wanting to overcome her shyness or Rarity wanting to become a famous in the fashion role. Here only Sunny Has some potential for development. She just got her alicorn powers and she still needs to figure out how to use them. But the rest? Pipp is already famous, Zipp became a detective and is good at it from the start and Izzy doesn't have anything for her other than being the quirky crafty friend.

[@ZentaBon]

That and traits they were working Twilight was rude and antisocial while also perfectionistic. Rarity was greedy sometimes or self absorbed. Rainbow dash sometimes got too competitive. Fluttershy had a hard time putting her foot down. They all had ""negative"" traits they were working on. These characters are all hunky dory. Pipp COULD overcome her social media addiction but I doubt she will. Social media is so incredibly unhealthy for people let alone kids. That shit WRECKED my self esteem when I was younger and having it be a regular part of the story made me really pissed off. I watch ponies for a fun fantasy world, not just a repainting of the modern world.

[@AppleCinderr]

I feel like no one talks about how just UGLY the ponies look. Their faces are just unsettling, and uncanny valley, they look like a middle aged lady named carol. 3D does not translate well, and even though the textures themselves do look good, but the actual way the ponies look just feel wrong, not to mention plain. This uncanniness can be seen most in twilight because we all know her original design, and she just looks terrifying there. Thinking about it I think it’s the weirdly human lips, teeth, and especially THE EYEBROWS that put me off the most. They remind me of those old barbie movie graphics but without the ironic charm. This might just be me but I really do NOT like the ways these ponies look.

[@barrysteakfriessimp_real]

Brrrrrrruuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh Whoever this generation of twilight is, is an imposter! Anyway that bit aside. I feel like connecting MLP gen 4 to gen 5 was a big mistake on the writer's part. MLP for each generation it has, never needed to connect it to the last most recent generation. The only reason gen 4 keeps getting referenced is because it was the most successful, but it really didn't need to be that way. Gen 4 didn't need to be a part of gen 5 the idea of that is cool and all and as an old fan I appreciate the attempt but I feel like it's putting a damper on things. I would've loved this show!

As I think I've mentioned in another videos before, I think one of the main flaws in G5 is how hard they're trying to tied it to G4. It just creates a lot of inconsistencies in both generations and messes so many things up about G4 (reason why I don't even consider it canon) That is honestly sad since, looking at the movie and its characters and the new Equestria they made, it's obvious that it has a lot of potential, yet most of it was wasted into a generic, non-interesting story. I've only watched the first 2 episodes of MYM and it completely lost me, so the only thing that still keeps me in touch with G5 is Tell Your Tale, since I think it is still good at least (and Pipp, as ironically enough she's my favorite character from G5 so far thanks to TYT giving her more of a personality, so she might be one of the few reasons I'm still somewhat interested in this new generation)

[@TheRealMissAcorn]

These are my thoughts exactly. G5 tries too hard to tie in with g4, and it does create a lot of inconsistencies and plotholes. Honestly, g5 would've been tolerable if they had their own universe. Even if all these plotholes ever get explained and filled, it still probably won't make a lot of sense.

My main beef with the two new shows is the removal of almost ever fantasy element: most of the buildings are late-90s/early-2000s style buildings and the buildings, backgrounds, and scenery are Al hyperrealistic. This clashes with the whole point of not just G4, but ALL the previous generations. The series was clearly built around the world representing a world that children would imagine when they play with the toys the show is based on. Hence why there was very little modern things. Sure they had cameras, modern-looking ovens, and all that, but they are all altered to that fantasy aesthetic. G4 took that up a notch by having the artstyle have a very German Expressionism (ie: Nosferatu 1922, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, and The Golem trilogy), with a surreal, light-hearted flair. Which is why most architecture looks historical but also a surreal quality to it. And even when it does have modern things in it like household appliances, cameras, and the like. It’s not out of place because it’s changed to fit the style. Take for instance, Rarity’s glamorous outfit designs and her own personal decor. Her decor is very Louis XVI and Victorian inspired. Her outfits she makes tend to have designs clearly taken from the Victorian, Edwardian, French Revolution, etc. eras. Like a lot of her hats are blatantly inspired from the “picture hats” of the Edwardian era. What their world considers fashion and in-style is something the modern world considers outdated. And I think all that works really well. It makes for an interesting world. But G5? Nah, let’s make everything hyperrealistic and make it look at late 20th-century for no reason. The smartphones could have worked. But the fact they made them look and function EXACTLY like real-world smartphones just doesn’t work. It clashes too much with the world they’re in, as modernized as it is. If you wanted to put in Smartphones in a successor to FiM, I think having it as something made by the Crystal Empire could work, having it be basically made out of crystals could honestly make it work. But they inserted real-world phone with no changes. Great work, guys… also Twilight showing up in the show with what looks like her appearance from when she first became an Alicorn instead of the older Twilight from the end of Season 9 is proof that the writers and designers of the new show either haven’t seen FiM or didn’t even work on FiM, or both. Fun fact: my own kid (who loves all the previous gens) said that both of the shows look terrible and I never seen him laugh once while watching it.

[@belaaacs]

You're right, what irritated me most about G5 was the constant reference to social media, like tiktok

[@blackmule]

It feels like they think children are stupid or something now, and that they NEED a relatable universe that look like the real world to feel invested And wtf? Children like magic, creation, escapism, worlds where they can become anybody and be able to dream Nothing looks magic in this poor sad copy of the real world it's like they don't want children to dream anymore

@@belaaacs My comment has not aged well as since then I have watched the movie, the Netflix show, and (painfully) caught up completely with the KZbin 2D side series. Thankfully outside of the movie and the first 2 chapters of the show, they’ve dialed back on the social media references and whatnot. I still do maintain that the smartphones looking like real-world smartphones is kinda dumb and should’ve had a MLP style flair to them.

[@Aelvir114]

@@blackmule I’m going to say that comment I posted has not entirely aged well, I have since watched the A New Generation film as well as all of Make Your Mark and up to where they currently are with Tell Your Tale. It is honestly not as bad as I thought it was. While they do have the social media stuff with Pipp, it was pretty obnoxious in Chapter 1 & 2 but they heavily dialed it down in subsequent episodes (thank god). You could tell the movie and the first 2 chapters were trying hard to use social media references to capitalize on the relatable mainstream trends with kids. Thankfully after Chapter 2, it seems they finally realized that wasn’t going to work and used the smartphone and social media as simply part of that world and not meant to be a focus. After the first few chapters, the show definitely improved and felt a lot more grounded on what it wants to be. The first two chapters felt like they wanted to appeal to both old and new fans but Chapters 4 and onward definitely drew me in, especially with their realistic portrayal of abuse and being isolated since childhood with Misty’s character. For what Make Your Mark did for Chapters 4-6 I think it did pretty well and wasn’t outright terrible and did some things better than FiM. Tell Your Tale, however, I feel is still pretty weak, the artstyle is not my cup of tea but some shorts were good but the majority of them are Pipp episodes and usually revolve around her salon when it’s not about her online presence, and you can definitely tell it’s written by completely different people from Make Your Mark.

I've thought about it for a while, and i think i know why the vibe of this show is just so weird. I think it's 4 aspects that cause it: 1. It's a continuation of G4. G4 does not need to be continued. It ended, and it should stay that way. Twilight making the three crystals to stop the ponies from fighting or whatever is just so unbelievably out of character and negates the past 9 seasons of FIM, which throws off the whole setting. 2. It's 3D animated. MLP is a show that works best in 2D. The 3D animation just looks kinda...weird. All of the super bright and beautiful scenery from FIM looks dull here. I don't know if it's a color issue or lighting issue or what, but everything looks so generic. 3. It has been dumbed down and panders way too much. pretty self-explanatory; the show is targeted at only very young kids-not families-and treats them as if they're stupid. it's sad. 4. The main reason (imo): the usage of modern technology, specifically smartphones. MLP is a fantasy world. It has magic, talking animals, mythical creatures, flying ponies, etc. To add something as realistic and mundane as the use of cell phones makes the world feel less...magical. seeing pony kids on their phones is just too reminiscent of real life. everyone is already addicted to their phones, we don't need that aspect effecting the MLP world too. Pip is the biggest example of this, which is why she's so unbelievably cringy and infuriating to listen to. I can't explain it that well, but the fantasy aspect just feels so lost. if anyone has any other ideas I'd love for you to share, I'm curious what other people think about this.

[@lbolen4304]

Ima be honest as soon as they announced the movie i already didnt like the sound of where g5 was going. The movie did surprise me with how well the animation looked and the backgrounds along with the voice acting and characters but there never really was much plot to it even then. Things just happening for the sake of it happening and special magic items that end up saving the day- plus i dont think sunny really earned her wings for what she did either. I really liked izzy in the movie cause she seemed like a energetic hippie type and as someone whos pretty much like that i loved her- until the show that is when they decided to make her pinkie pie 2.0…. What gets me the most is the plot holes and inconsistencies to prior g4 lore. For example the baby dragon is born with wings which we learned dosent happen with dragons and they grow them later on through there version of puberty- not to mention his powers can just do anything now??? Like he swapped there cutie marks in one episode- that was literally the plot to what at the time was gunna be the damn finale of the show and that spell twilight casted and remaking the spell to fix it WAS WHAT LITERALLY MADE TWILIGHT EARN HER WINGS- and they just made a baby dragon do it- on accident- not to mention where are the wendigos? But the biggest issues is the kick to the face all of g5 is to g4- “oh yeah twilight successfully brought world peace and friendship to all the people of equestria! ….until 5 seconds later after you werent looking and then everything went to hell again and now these new ponies have to do what the last cast did all over again!” The twilight hologram made me pretty upset to sense i saw it as a missed opportunity to make the spirit of harmony come back and do something similar like they did with the young 6 but nope- the new evil allacorn is a pretty disappointing villain for me to sense her entire motive is just to have all the magic for herself and for no reason. Its just another power hungry pony- the mirror plot line was really dumb to- i guess they where trying to show how narcissistic she is?? I havent even watched tell your tale because it already looks like its just pony life 2.0 and that show was already a blatant copy of teent titans go which i could at most call it a shitpost show. Also is jazz just gunna never have here ears…? Theres so many shots where shes missing them and youd think theyed notice something like that… i guess the earthpony magic is kind of neat? But it dosent really add much. Misty to me just feels like a hunter clone… overall this show just didnt need to be connected to g4 and could have been its whole new thing sense they arent even bothering to follow cannon anyways- Tldr: my disappointment for g5 is unmeasurable and my day is ruined

[@Naiseokai]

off topic, but is it just me, or is it just that shows that are targeted for little girls nowadays have been so low lately. franchises such as rainbow high, MLP G5, etc. have been modernised and are just too hip and trendy. they have mobile phones, references to social media, slang such as #relatable, pop songs, etc. the fact that they have mobile phones in a show that is made for little kids is not good, especially G5. it's unhealthy and can lead to little girls becoming phone addicts in the future. speaking of mobile phones, the issue with mobile phones in My Little Pony is that not only does it make it non-fantasy themed and feels really unfitting. it's the fact that they are HORSES using god damn phones with their big hooves. how the FUCK can they scroll, click and type properly with their hooves? if i were a pony and i'm using a mobile phone, the screen would be filled with scratches. now for the non off topic content. G5's writing is so low lately, and i'm already know i'm gonna have low hopes for chapter 4 like i did with chapters 3 and 2. just because it's a preschool show doesn't mean it has to be this bad. shows such as bluey, sesame street, arther (?) and more have much better writing than G5, and they are preschool shows. while G5 does try to make morals, there is little educational value. morals such as "work and communicatie together" are used over and over again (especially in Tell Your Tale) to the point where it becomes repetitive and some morals in G5 are bad, such as an episode from Tell Your Tale, which is Sparky's Sick, teaching that if you're sick, just eat sweets and smoothes instead. that's not a good moral. it's unhealthy and will not make you feel better. the continuities between G4 and G5 are lacking so bad. there are no wendigos in chapter 1, despite that the 3 pony races were FIGHTING, earth ponies always had magic because cutie marks, cutie marks haven't even disappeared, despite that the magic was gone, no other fantasy like animals or other animals in general expect for a dragon and those small animals with corns, a dragon being born with wings and lastly, sunny and opaline being alicorns, despite not having the right requirements to become one. opaline becoming an alicorn remains unknown, but sunny literally became an alicorn by a picture and for bringing back magic, which made me dislike the ending of the movie. even if it tries to make continity to G4, it will make no sense and may cause a character from the previous generation to have their character ruined. twilight creating crystals all because an earth pony got hurt by a unicorn (and i think wasn't even severe, just a minor hit) feels really out of character. twilight would have talked to the earth pony and the unicorn, but creating crystals it just weird and ruins her character, and because of this, i consider G5 to be non canon to G4. the 3D animation is so cheap. there are times when the characters move so weirdly, the colours are way too bright, and the lighting is awful. this generation is so disappointing so far. it's just a generic little kids show. i would not recommend little kids watching this.

They literraly broke all of the Gen 4 history because of that, and now is all confusing! *2- The villian* Shes ugly. She's not scary like a villain, compare her to Nightmare Moon, for an example! She is just a joke and she doesn't feel like a MLP villain. *3- Earth ponies power* The cool thing about the earth ponies whas they don't need magic or wings to do the things by themselfs! Like, the apple family literally built a entire village WITH NO MAGIC, they don't need that stupid plants magic, is literraly a joke to all the apple family who planted a whole farm of apples by themselfs and make them fell so... lazy. *4- Cutie Marks* They forgot about cutie marks and how important they are to all the MLP history. Thas pathetic. *5- Characters* The most of the characters are a copy-paste from g4. Izzy is Pinkie pie, Hitch is Fluttershy(but less shy), Pipp is Rarity(But more anoying), Zipp is Rainbow Dash.

To be fair Earth ponies having magic got established as early as season 1 with the Hearthswarming episode, it was just subtle and was more meant to showcase that Earth ponies are in tune with nature more and thus have naturally greater strength (such as Maud breaking a boulder with her bare hooves or the Apple family being the only ones able to harvest Zap Apples)

[@sharaheartsixx]

I 100% agree with literally all of this. Honestly if you look at the concept work for G5, all of it is amazing. From the early development of bringing back the Mane 6 to developing the G5 characters. Even the basic concept of the world I think is great but the execution? what the actual fuck. I really enjoyed the movie as a good start. It was a fantastic base for the show to IMPROVE upon. But it didn't. I disagree that Izzy and Sunny stayed the same because Sunny is so bland and boring in the show, Izzy went from being a quirky artsy character to a more annoying Pinkie pie with destructive behaviour and Hitch. don't get me started. From a charming, brave, but ultimately kinda overconfident yet still caring guy to... a crybaby paranoid himbo with a dragon. He went from one of my favourites to least favourites in the show. Zipp is the only good character, and with Pipp, tbh I don't mind the connection to G4 and I don't mind the more modernized world of Equestria, I just wish it was executed better and Pipp was less of an obnoxious influencer character, because most influencers DONT ACT LIKE THAT. The characters are so inconsistent personality wise with what little they have and the story has absolutely no substance and none of them have any actual goal to work towards. In G4 not only was there an overarching plot with the friendship lessons which evolved to greater lessons in the later seasons, but each of the main characters, even Spike, had personal goals, ACHIEVED THEM and strived for bigger ones. There's none of that in this show, and with how dogshit the release schedule is all we really have is the web series with the most low brow, unsubstantial, random bullshit to call G5, which wouldn't be an issue if the actual show was somewhat worth talking about.

[@sharaheartsixx]
