I mean, I get that, but Cozy Glow did straight up kill someone and she was given way more chances at changing and refused to listen to reason. Should be have been turned to stone? Nah, not really. But seeing as she did work with Chrysalis and Tirek, Equestria two worst enemies of the time, doesn’t really help her favor. It is rather annoying that her backstory was never looked into and why she kinda falls flat as a villain. Though I love the Shirley Temple thing she has going.
Without getting TOO off topic, rumour has it they used the exact models from the 3ds titles with slight improvements. So they wouldn’t have to make new models every time a new Pokémon Gen came out. So yeah, the fact that importing most of these models can be done in hacking programs with relative ease means there really is no excuse NOT to have the full dex.
G5 is definitely growing on me. As someone who is neurodivergent, I’m not normally used to change in media I personally like.
With each Pokémon generation after 7 I dread how many of my favourites are getting removed in favour of a balanced set of mons. I do think while Scarlet and Violet do have their issues, they are a step in the right direction but being unable to import Pokémon from past gens especially relatively popular ones until the DLC came out was weird.
What does any of this have to do with G5? TYT and IDW are that DLC. I love the fact the comics and TYT bring back elements from G4 except Old Man Discord, but that’s for another day. Equestria games are back? Consider me hyped.
Yeah, not every kid is going to like the CG. But personally if Netflix didn’t time-crunch the animators and Hasbro didn’t cut so many corners against Berrow’s wishes, it could’ve been a lot better with the CG animation. I know it’s not for everyone but personally I’ve found MYM to be more expressive than TYT. But I think pretty much 2D animation has all but been phased out. Supposedly, 3D animation is just that much more popular. I can see it, but while I do prefer 2D, I just hope 3D animation just is given much more quality than it has been.
Yeah, I’m sure the millions of kids whose parents bought all those merch. Because yeah, every brony totally collects MLP toys and merch outside of DVDs.
Legit.
“It’s a kid’s show” implies that YOU and YOUR KIDS are complete and total IDIOTS who don’t DESERVE decent writing or quality in your entertainment.
Based take right here. A bit of a correction: Spike shows up in the regular episodes. He wasn’t in the special
I actually wasn’t even going to comment on this because I genuinely don’t know how to feel about G5, there’s good moments to love and I feel like Spike should have been Anthropomorphic in the special as making him a quadraped felt like a bit of a downgrade. But at the same time I love how it’s rekindled my love of the series.
I COULD theoretically filter out G5 but then I’d be missing out on genuinely good Izzy and Zipp art which I’d rather not. In the end I choose not to complain and just enjoy what we got as rushes as it was.
Eh, I think they made the right choice by making G5 a part of G4’s world - I think the reaction from certain sections of the fandom would still be the same (that of “ew, not G4”), except I think they would have avoided it entirely before making that judgment, and in doing this, they drove more toy/merch sales (which of course is the number 1 goal of any MLP thing).
trashanimation in MLP’s history)It was somewhat rushed, but also appropriate, IMO - and very magical feeling (that sequence with “Magic in Us” genuinely gave me goosebumps). I also thought the ultimate fate of Opaline was very fitting.
Considering they made it abundantly clear before C5 came out that MYM was ending that’s pretty much what they did. It was very rushed. Apparently the modeling team got transferred to other projects the moment they finished C6.
Exactly!! We don’t mind a different mlp, just a tad weird for it to take place in the same universe of g4, just be your own thing, totally cool, just don’t ride coattails of an already existing show, kinda reminds me of Prometheus, made by the same director but the studio wanted stuff from Alien in it, that’s what this feels like to me,that the connection to g5 and g4 just feels like a studio decision because g4 made a whole lot of money when it came out.
True, but if you ask me, G5 should have been its own thing and not a sequel to G4. I want to like G5, I really do, but some parts of it feel rushed and unfinished. Admittedly the MYM models also at times look almost like a downgrade in quality from the movie. I feel like if TYT was all of G5 or they made MYM like TYT animation wise it would be fine. You can say it’s a kids show all you want but kids at least deserve quality. Not every kid is going to be happy with CG models. It’s sad that 3D animation is killing 2D and that’s all I’m gonna say.
This is coming from someone who doesn’t really consider himself a brony.
The Spike arc feels like they needed to wrap up Opaline really fast and rather than making her a genuinely good villain she feels like Magnifico from Wish where she’s just rushed in and defeated with little to no complexity. “It’s a kids show!” is such a tiring argument. They don’t need to appeal to bronies or anyone who liked G4, but why not just make G5 it’s own thing? Apparently the reason other races don’t appear in G5 is because of DHX and rights issues.
Edited
Yeah. Seriously. It’s still a kid’s show.
Yeah, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Bronies are nowhere near as important as they often seem to think they are
First off, the whole idea wasn’t to get G4 fans attention by saying “See, this is more of that thing you loved”, it was done because G4 was already successful, and making it a continuation of that instead of starting anew is just a good business decision. It would entice old and new viewers to see the new series. The writing and characters are not deliberately trying to get G4 fans’ attention. The only characters with any remote G4 connections is Sunny Starscout, and by extension her father, Argyle Starshine. The writing is hardly deliberately focused on G4 seeing as every G4 reference costs them to pay royalties, and G4-related stuff RARELY ever is present in the writing save for the rare nods to G4 and the very rare 2 cameos. It’s also a no-brainer that adults were never the target audience, to the surprise of no one. Also, yes it is set in the same world, but really? “set in the same place”?? Ah yes, because you totally see Ponyville, Canterlot, Cloudsdale, or even any location from G4, right? Even the maps of G5’s world is completely different and clearly nowhere near any feasible location in G4. Showcasing the same characters from G4? I’m sorry, HUH?? Ah yes, because we have a brief cameo of Twilight and having Spike return for Chapter 6. That’s it. No one else shows up. Now if you’re implying that the main cast is a carbon copy of the G4 Mane Six, I don’t even know where to begin with how wrong that is.
G5’s lore is intrinsically tied to G4. This was made as blatant as the original press release of what direction G5 was going to go in. It wasn’t going to be a new cast, it wasn’t going to be a clean slate with some amusing references, it’s a literal continuation set into the future of G4.
“This new design fits him much better than that gigachad anthro design he had in the series finale.”
Yeah seriously, why does no one know how to use filters? I guess it’s more fun being annoying.
