    The End of an Era

    Well, Generation 4 of MLP has officially ended and I am currently sitting here typing this up with tears in my eyes.

    I came into G4 very late in the game, thinking that I would never watch such a goofy show as this. But....after watching the very first Equestria Girls movie, I started watching the past episodes and I found my love for the show.

    Story Ideas For Authors

    So, I’ve been reading stories on here for awhile now and my brain starts coming up with ideas for stories that I could write. However, I haven’t written in quite some time and I’m a bit rusty. So, I thought I would post some of my ideas and if any decent author wants to try them out. I would definitely love to see them, whether it’s a one shot or a series. I won’t be posting all my ideas, as

    Horrible

    That’s right, you heard me. Rollercoaster of Friendship was the worst episode of this series I ever watched. As with Forgotten Friendship, I will be giving the pros and cons of this episode.

The End Of Generation 4 My Little Pony · 7:06pm Mar 16th, 2019

So....I’ve had about a week to process that this is the final season of the fourth generation of My Little Pony and I have to admit that I am a little sad to see it go.

I got into the show very late in the game (something I severely regret now). If you had asked me before if I would ever watch a show about talking pastel ponies, I would have said that there was no chance in Tartarus and would have thought that you were crazy for watching it yourself. The very idea of it was just absolutely ridiculous to me.

That being said, I was flipping through my channels one day and happened to stop on Equestria Girls (And yes, I can see a lot of you rolling your eyes at me). However, I didn’t know that (at the time) it was related to MLP. I thought it was a pretty good movie.

So, imagine my surprise when I realized that it was an offshoot of the MLP universe (though there is still debate about that, regardless that it is pretty obvious that it is). My first thought was, “Have I been wrong about this series the entire time?” So, I started watching some of the previous episodes and just like that, a new Brony was born.

I started absorbing everything MLP, from the show itself to the Equestria Girls series. I was hooked. And then I found this place and started reading some of the great stories on here and I felt like I had found my home.

Now, the series is going to end and I honestly don’t want it to. I want more of the zany adventures the girls get into (be they pony or human). I want to keep the joy I feel when I am surprised by something that I see in the show or the sadness I feel when it is an especially emotional episode (like The Perfect Pear). I don’t want those feelings to go away.

I can understand why they are ending the show on an instinctual level. It feels like it has run its course on what the characters have learned and what they can do to help others, without recycling previous episodes. But I still don’t want it to end.

I have seen the leaked images of Generation 5 and while they may have the same Cutie Marks and the same names, they are not the same girls I have come to love. They are so different from the previous version, from the Twilight that still has her Magic Cutie Mark and is an Earth Pony (say huh?) to the Applejack that I have heard is not going to be a cowgirl anymore and will be more gangster in Gen 5 (the Southern boy in me takes offense to that since, besides Sunset being my number one girl, Applejack has always been my favorite). I can only hope that some of the stuff I have heard and read is just a rough idea and some of it will be changed before the final product is brought out. I don’t want it to be a carbon copy of Gen 4, but I would like to see some stuff that reminds me of the old series.

I am really going to miss Generation 4. From someone who thought that the show was ridiculous, I really came to love this series with all my heart and soul. And while the final season hasn’t been yet, I will be dreading every day when it does and we start getting closer and closer to the last few episodes.

Long live Generation 4. It feels like you were gone too soon for my taste.
