[@milesrogers7169]

Please make more mlp Animations

[@KalijahAnderson]

Please do morre of this. the style is great and you nailed the facial expressions for the characters to the song. Excelent job.

[@rainv_1642]

Ok

[@play_aliska_play]

IM OBSESSED WITH THIS ANIMATION

[@phantomlogic6940]

I really like how RD's facial expression changes with each different pony that's in front of her. Short animation but nicely done.

You don't say so about Gilda. She's a griffon!

[@boomy30]

Gosh the way you animated her saying "I don't fear you" is stellar. Can see the confidence and happiness. And the proud look on Spitfire is awesome. Great work Neko :3

[@haileyturner8219]

this is so cute i am obsessed with the way u animated the “i don’t fear you” part. i keep replaying it over and over again

[@Fourleafclover2006]

Same omggggg

[@spac3k1d88]

ME TOO-

[@genesis_ink]

i know its like literally the least original opinion to have ever, but i really really do love Rainbow man.. she's just... god shes so great..

[@olddawny]

fr she’s absolutely adorable

[@Anino_Makata]

She embodies most (if not all) of the things anyone could admire in a tomboy character. Determined, daring, confident, and fearless, but still retaining her moments of genuine dorkiness or quirkiness, while still standing proud. I feel like Rainbow is someone any of us, regardless of who you are, can aspire to be.

[@worldtravels7187]

I remember when I was younger and I used to watch MLP all the time, I thought Fluttershy was my favourite character. Watching the series again, I still liked Fluttershy but Rainbow completely caught my eye for some reason. Not sure why, but I guess I don't really relate to Fluttershy as much anymore. I'm not as shy as I used to be and Rainbow speaks her opinion even if nobody agrees. Also, her tomboy attitude is amazing! I'm not a tomboy whatsoever, but I don't bother with my appearance too much, I just try to look good enough to be presentable. Rainbow Dash, when she's not goofing around, is a really caring character. She understood when Fluttershy didn't want to participate in helping the water get up to Cloudsdale, even if it took her a while. RD also just decided to give up her dream as a Wonderbolt if it meant ponies would get hurt. There's way more I could say, but this is a 3 year old comment so cya.

[@justoneoftheguys111]

This is very well executed and extremely visually appealing! Extremely impressive for your first attempt. I’m most excited by how well you did Dash’s acting in the lipsync part, lots of animators have trouble with acting that reads well and isn’t over/underdone but you’ve nailed it

[@NekoSnicker]

Thank you :D

[@HONEYDROPGALAXY]

Her snoot scrunch on the "I don't fear you" is the cutest

[@LenoraTheYinglet]

Its been six years. I commissioned art from you 6 years ago and sorta. Stopped looking through my DA uploads. And it really didn't take long for me to pick up on the name. You did an amazing job with this! Very well done!

[@hatstorm1097]

I can’t: Bully from her childhood Hear you: Friend from her childhood, turned enemy, turned back to friend I don’t: Rival who never got better as a person Fear you: Authority figure who she earned the respect of Even 2 words are enough to explain how her relationship with Gilda and Spitfire evolved, and how little her relationship with Dumbbell and Lightning Dust mattered.

[@alenthedraconequus1956]

Agreed the face she made was the best thing to Express herself and show that she will not take someone's shit and to have no fear in this makes her feel better about her self and the confidence she has in this makes her seemingly more honest with her and her feelings rather than her bottling them up so she blew her top and said what she wanted and felt

[@ChordCatcher]

Remarkable! Simply and utterly amazing! I hope to see more in the future, you've got a real knack for animation :D

[@zachmoviefan]

The nose scrunch from Rainbow adds something more to it.

[@immeantfortheflowers]

I love SpitFires smile at her like she knows Rainbow is a badass

[@lilypad.7485]

WAIT THE LIPSYNC IS SO GOOD BRUH UNDERRATED

[@betsybee9176]

I love Spitfire’s expression. I can’t get enough of it ❤️❤️❤️

[@Evilta]

She looks like a proud mom

[@natxfu]

If you guys put the Sing 2's version over this video it actually fits rainbow dash like woa- (Great animation btw!!)

[@mataschmata]

spitfire's look of pride

[@MilettyAnimations]

I love the POWER in her expression when she says ‘fear’!

[@swirlseypop]

this animation captures her attitude PERFECTLY. i adore this.

[@NorthernWind0]

If only the show had kept this attitude of hers alive.

[@shadowhawkrine1947]

This is so well made, the emotion between each of those relationships perfectly transcribed through the screen

[@pyro-millie5533]

This one has such subtle movements!! Gorgeous!!

[@autisticblood5123]

I'm glad Halsey did a cover of this. With me editing the animation with that cover, it makes this feel 10x better

[@orysmorey]

oh i thought she made the original version and this was a cover:0

[@ShiftTGC]

This? I love this. This is just great. I love the emotions in it. The transition to smiling in the "scream" in "I don't fear you!" I dunno why, but I loved that part specifically a lot. And it's a great art style you have with this. Looking forwards to seeing more of your stuff ^^

[@westii_bunzz]

I watched MLP as a child and seeing Gilda brought literal tears to my eyes this is GORGEOUS

[@wolfbanew]

Something about the little head tilt/the depth added to her mouth and teeth is SO GOOD! Keep up the amazing work!

[@noturaverage5846]

i literally have n e v e r been more in love with an animation cnsidnekd i c a n t ive watched it so many timesss

[@Metal_Tao]

This really fits the feeling of Austreoh, and it fucking makes me tear and tense up! It's a fantastic comparison

[@stopgont7360]

Spitfire is so proud of her

[@felicitym8387]

Spitfire looks so proud of her

[@MayaTheOwl]

This is beyond amazing, the expressions, the smoothness, the vibrant colors, its all so good

[@AndyBoyBrawler]

One of the best animations. Watched it once a day for a week.

[@AndyBoyBrawler]

Been a month now and still watching it.

[@Stargazing-17]

I love how rainbows so determined

[@kendracowan4828]

My replay button is broken from how many times I replayed this I love it so much keep up the good work.

[@Spartan5781]

Every time this pops up on my suggested I always watch it. I just love it so much!

[@user-co7wx3sz4e]

The amount of times this has been on my recommendations is absurd! The transition for the “I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you!” of rainbow dash is so sick! You don’t wanna know how many times I’ve replayed this by now, I found this like 7-9 months ago and since last month this has been on my recommendations everyday wanting me to rewatch this, youtube surely is tryna make me go back into my MLP phase, my whole recommendations is now MLP. Welp, looks like I’m not gonna escape my MLP phase just yet, it’s sad that it ended but I’ll rewatch the show over and over if Netflix takes MLP off, I’m actually gonna sue them. One of the only reasons I have Netflix. This song too, it just makes you just wanna scream at the top of your lungs and is so upbeat! If you’re still reading MLP fan, then who is your favorite MLP character? (Doesn’t have to be a Mane 6 pony, could be a CMC or any other pony.)

[@ponylad4125]

The more I watch it the more I like it. Good job 👍

[@h2g2guy]

Love it! This song is a perfect choice for Dash, and the frame-by-frame animation is great at expressing that passion that both she and the song exudes :).

[@umbreonhyperdream]

This is so cute ahhh And Spitfire looks so proud

[@vinx.909]

plain simply stunning. i can't but imagine how much work it must have been to get this good.

[@not-so-obvious_autism777]

[@finn7309]

I've watched this at least thousand times at this point.

[@hellistheunderworld]

i'd love to see a full version this is great

[@Alex-zs1xb]

I may or may not have already watched this like 30 times. This is honest to goodness one of the best animations I have seen. Also, the words and expressions Rainbow Dash gives to each other character is so fitting!!

[@Lalalaitzvannyyy]

Me and the replay button are best friends now

[@Inko21]

I still love this animation. The details are so well done. How Rainbow get a bit madder with each character. All of who use to be jerks to her just glaring back until we get to Spitfire who's just like "I love the attitude." This would make a great PMV but that's asking a lot of something that's free.

[@Chrono_Mitsurugi]

I'm sad. I can't like this more than once. Great job, that was some really nice facial animation. I loved it.

[@spazzylab]

FINALLY someone messed up the 420 comments count so that I can tell you how much I freaking love this. Totally agree with what everyone else said about the attitude, the quality of the animation, and how much you conveyed with a relatively short video. Thank you so much for this stellar effort. You are a raging badass.

[@Ashezth]

So very good, require MOAR. SEND ME THESE FEELS
