Rarity#bestpony → Rarity!.4PK7yxdII

If you want a tripcode containing specific words, you can download a program designed to search for tripcodes, such as Tripcode Explorer.

Entering an e-mail is optional.

There are also code words you can enter here which perform certain actions when you submit your post.

  • sage — lets you post without bumping a thread.
  • nonoko — uses the original post behavior to redirect to the board index.

These can be used at the same time as an e-mail address by typing ‹email›#‹action›.

You can also use Skype names in place of an e-mail. The notation is the same as a link to a username on skype itself, which is skype:‹username›

Does anyone wanna chat about MLP? Nother Nonymous (ID: 29b68f)Country code: us, country type: geoip, valid: 1  459[View]

Gen 5 appears to be on its way out. Maybe this is a good time to talk about what made Gen 4 so hugely better than the other generations of MLP, with an eye toward helping to bring an equally great G6 into being. Here are two major factors:

1. Poetic but hard-nosed and consistent world-building for a world of horses from Faust and the other early showrunners. No sticky hooves. No electricity. No motors. Trains pulled by ponies. Mouthtools. Typewriters with only two keys. A richly fantastic world, but one that incorporates madness, disease, war, blood, bodily functions, birth, and death. The pure initial world picture tended to get messed up as the show wore on and things like go-carts and pianos crept in, but it started out clean and beautiful.

2. Archetypes. Two semi-divine beings, larger than other ponies: a goddess of sunlight and a goddess of darkness and dreams. Three races, corresponding to the three castes of Indian society and Indo-European myth: magical shamans, warriors, peasants. Archetypal characters representing the shy willowy female, the bold androgyne, the mad trickster god, the amorous, male-manipulating vamp, and so on. Extensive and explicit incorporation of mythologies from all over the world.

What else?

G5 is now officially over. It says so on EQD, so it must be true.

I really liked the G5 movie, but other than that... uneventful.

The three archetypes also sort of mirror the traditional division in European society. Those that pray, those that fight, and those that work. The church at that time would also represent all of the academics though, so it sort of maps on with Twilight.

But in Hearthswarming Eve, the division is more like aristocracy, peasantry and army. And Rarity is definitely more aristo than academic. Either way it has a strong medieval feel because of that.

I sort of have hope that they might still value the brand enough not to churn out low effort junk like G3.5

>>>> >>>> >>>>472 vs Cybaman You do know how stories about abilities gained too quickly in one upsmanship tended to end? You still need to have respect for the old stories, and not with that brainwave configuration.

It is all canon. Equestria Girls too. And Gen 5. It didn't end because someone stopped liking it.

I don't hold any strong opinion on this. It's all canon to me - but if you want to know where I started being more critical of the series? Post Season 6.

Season 5, because it's the last one I watched.

But in actual fact every season is canon because the showrunners decide what's canon and not me.
