I may have actually gotten used to his G5 design at this point, but I can't lie saying I still don't feel a bit of a shred of upset. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(If anyone's wondering why the OC has a paperbag and covered-up cutie-mark, it's 'cause I'm still undecided on my ponysona's design)

Say what you want about how G5 portrayed Spike but at least we don’t have to look at this anymore

[bigahhhhhhhh]

As if their ending wasn't enough to completely destroy me, now this??? Like seriously why??? Like... Oh my god.

So, you're telling me the Elements of Unity are...

Hope, Courage, Confidence, Creativity, Empathy, and Kindness

Dear Celestia, I was right for Fluttershy being my favorite

[sleepytoycollection]

You know, we see a G5 timeskip Discord in it's IDW comics if you're interested. His plotline starts at Issue #1 and ends at Issue #10- you can find it on yayponies. :3

Ah yes! I've read that one actually. Someone put scans of it here on tumblr, and it getting randomly recommended to me is what started me on my current MLP kick lol.

I saw that one image of Old Man Discord with Fluttershy's ghost, and despite not being into MLP media, it made me so sad I wanted to know more about their relationship and what led up to that point.

That's why I'm so attached to that ship now. I'm not that into g5 on the whole (and now I know more about g4, I'd argue that comic is not how events should have happened, but that's another post), but that comic really conveyed how much he loved her (whether you see it as romantic or platonic, it's still love). Even hundreds of years after she died.

And watching back through their eps in G4 with that image in mind, I don't know. I just like them together. It's sweet.

Misty's hair in MYM

It really pushes my idea that her story parallels a kid growing up with intolerant (or in my personal experience, religious) parent(s) and that she has to hide her true self. She only knew the in-group all her life and opening up to the world outside made her realise who she really was. Then having to hide it when she gets home... Like come on! This writes itself!

This entire show in a nutshell /hj

OK so thoughts on mlp: make your mark chapter 6....

isle of scaly / roots of all evil

isle of scaly was cool! kind forgettable compared to everything else but i liked the dragons more than i thought i would and spike was a surprising addition even though i found the idris elba sounding voice to be more than a little distracting haha

roots of all evil was amazing. i think make your mark is at it's best when it's not afraid to up the stakes and opaline's arc finally concluding really did that for me. misty finally standing up for herself was very satisfying as well and i'm glad they at least kinda addressed her trauma.

seriously just the line delivery on "i can feel it in my hooves, see it in my mind" gave me CHILLS, just that entire scene was emotionally charged and the voice acting is amazing.

you could argue that the magic with the love pendant is contrived, "deus ex magica" and all that but it feels very earned in this case. ultimately sunny had faith in friendship above all else, to the very end, and THAT'S what made it work.

secrets of starlight

the new settings and characters were really cool and it's certainly a good setup for the next arc but to be honest i didn't like it as much, i think i'll just need more time with the characters. especially comet.

comet is good and all but i hope he stays more of a side character than a 7th member of the group. we JUST met him keep in mind so he could end up with a really good arc (like starlight in g4 who ended up being one of my favorites, they absolutely TEASED us with that episode title btw) also he's VERY trans coded haha

and hasbro stole my sona's name i demand financial compensation /j

tell your tale episodes 67 & 68

thought i'd throw these in since i JUST watched them about 10 minutes ago. not much to say on rise & fall besides the fact i'm impressed on how decently they summarized roots of all evil haha

crystal ball was neat but again i just think i'm gonna need more time with the starlight ridge and it's characters to really be sold on it for the next arc

also the animation in tell your tale keeps getting better, i'm into it. i used to hate the art style but it's grown on me and these episodes are pretty good for weekly releases

final thoughts

chapter 6 is pretty damn great and i think roots of all evil ESPECIALLY is peak g5. i knew my faith in make your mark was not unwarranted, it just had a slow start.
