    MLP: TNG

    I'm a month late to this, but here's my take on MLP: TNG (or whatever we're calling it). I was underwhelmed the first time I watched it, but I gave it a second chance, and it started to grow on me. I think my mistake was watching Raya and the Last Dragon just a few days before the G5 movie. Both movies have similar themes and plots, but they handle them differently. More on that later.

    Revisiting the Final Season

    A few months ago, I rewatched Season 9, and I liked it even better than the first time I saw it. There were still two episodes that I didn't care for: “3, 2, 1, Greaaat” and “Trivial Pursuit.” With both of those episodes, I went into them with the mindset that I would skip to the next episode when they started to annoy me. I only made it a few minutes into each episode.

    Bereavement

    It's been awhile since I've posted any updates. Things happened one after another to make me lose interest in multicolored ponies. First the show ended, and then real world problems started happening. Then came the worst case scenario – I lost my father in February of this year.

    Random update

    I haven't been on this site as much as I use to because of real life distractions. Not all of the distractions have been good, but the good ones are truly amazing.

    Pony Life is a regression to Season One

    Maybe it's just because the MLP stop-motion shorts lowered my expectations, but so far I think Pony Life is okay. I wouldn't call it good, but at least it doesn't directly insult older fans the way Thundercats Roar does (or so I've heard). I enjoy Pony Life's animation style enough to recommend watching five minutes of it. Plus, there is actual dialog spoken by the same VA's from FiM, and they

I have a deadline · 3:24am Jun 26th, 2015

So, you probably know by now that the new EG movie is scheduled for release in fall. I'd like to finish OUAN before the movie officially makes the fic AU. I'm about a third of the way through, so if I keep plugging away at my current pace, I should finish before October.


Watch the movie make Sunset the Element of Forgiveness or Redemption or something else that contradicts my headcanon. At least that part wouldn't be too hard to revise, though.

One of my readers asked about the use of surnames in OUAN. For anyone else who is curious, I figured it made more sense for the humans to have surnames, even if the ponies don't necessarily have them. For those keeping track, we have:

Luna McQueen and Celestia McQueen
Fluttershy McCloud
Rarity Belle (and Sweetie Belle, of course)
Applejack Apple, Apple Bloom Apple, and McIntosh Apple (their parents really loved apples)
Scootaloo Swift
Diamond Dazzle Tiara-Rich
Everyone else is the same as their pony counterpart
