A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

Probably just someone venting about the difficulty of finding a job.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI figured that much, but the secret brony codewords threw me off a little.
Reminds me a bit of this XKCD comic

Wow, those wings look like they're coming out at a rather unconformatable angle. The perils of Retconjuration I suppose.
Dude, how many new faces have we gotten lately? I don't think I recognize half the people here anymore...
Malagasy Parrot is actuallly a really old but infrequent poster. Same with Lalei 2000.

Speaking of that, I've recently been feeling like Scootaloo, in the sense that my dreams have yet to come true* despite the fact that by all logic it should have been possible**.
* I've been trying to launch a career in robotics, but those jobs have been playing hard-to-get.
** In my case, the fact that I've spent years developing what I thought to be the skills I'd need for those kinds of jobs. In Scoots' case, the fact that even if we're to assume that she'd never fly naturally, it's been well established that Equestria has the technology to produce something that would help her fly in some capacity.
According to Equestria Daily, G5 MLP will have a brand new cast.
What do you make of this?
I think the previous cast had a good run, would have preferred if pony life had new heroes, so this is a welcome change for me.

Welp, gonna miss you all but I'm not going to resent the new generation for it.
Question: what does Trixie's voice sounds like to you people? How would you describe it?

Trans rights are human rights. TV Tropes is not a place for bigotry, cruelty, or dickishness, no matter who or their position.Post of the Day #3056
Derpy Pie? That's a new one! I'll see what I can do.
And yeah, the shading is way off...the drop shadow tool in photoshop is a tricky bugger to use at times.
@ JT
Twijack? Sure thing!

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI find that a welcome change, resetting old characters like that always struck me as strange, and I felt you might as well make new characters if you don't want to keep the old personalities the same.
Apparently Twilight was already confirmed to not return in the next show, which we seem to have missed here.
Also, any early details on the next movie have been changed, it seems.
So from the sound of it, I think we need to treat all early leaks as unreliable and likely to have been changed.

Hope shines brightest in the darkest timesMy main concern with reusing G4 characters is that they might be tempted to compromise whatever new world they were building in some act of half-assed fanservice. Though I might be open to minor characters being copied from G4, or the occasional crossover via interdimensional magic, provided it's done intelligently.
Yeah, and I think it would have invited too many comparisons to the old show, likely not very favourable.
I wonder if the lukewarm response to Pony Life has anything to do with that decision. Fans clearly did not react well to having their favourite characters tampered with.

I am sure that decision was made long before Pony Life. MLP has never had an established ensemble cast consistently
Yeah, I don't think this is in response to Pony Life.
If IIRC the details in the leak surrounding the supposed G5 (which many still question), their idea was for new voice actors from the start. The characters would still be the 6, but each retooled to be a different character from their G4 counterparts.
It's kinda what Hasbro has done in the past with Transformers, where they have certain core characters that return, but their dynamics change between universes. Although that has changed somewhat in recent years to be more experimental.
So that they seem to be going for a completely new cast makes sense. They were alrady kinda walking down that path to begin with.

Do remember that Power Rangers is adapted from a foreign series that works very differently from cartoons.

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI’m with the others here in thinking that G5 needs a new cast of characters. Even as someone who’s only really gotten into G4, MLP can and should go beyond what G4 did. I think they should take the broad ideas that worked - storytelling, above all - and do something new with it.
As for my history with the fandom, I joined it when I was 12 during the great hiatus between Seasons 1 and 2. I kept up with the show until the Season 4 finale, and I stopped not because it had gotten worse or anything, just that it felt like the show could end there and I’d be satisfied. The fact it kept going and evolving in so many new directions was a real wild discovery for me, and I’m happy it got such a spectacular send-off as it did.

It doesn’t even seem to fit the context of its surrounding posts, so I have no idea.
