    MLP Series Finale/Future Plans

    Hey guys, I know I've been quiet for the last few months. But with the offical MLP show coming to a close, I thought it was important that I talk about some things.

    I know most of the MLP community is upset by the show's run officially coming to an end. Personally, witnessing the closing shot of the final episode was still one of the most hollowing things I've watched in a long time.

    Update - New Chapter and Drawings

    I just thought I'd pop in to inform you all that the new chapter of "Holding Onto You" is coming this upcoming Friday and I may or may not have my new drawings ready by then as well!

    Update! (March, 2019)

    Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I posted anything. But, I essentially packed the first half of my semester with abridged classes (8 weeks instead of 16 weeks). So, I was super busy up until this week!

MLP Series Finale/Future Plans · 4:46am Oct 13th, 2019

Hey guys, I know I've been quiet for the last few months. But with the offical MLP show coming to a close, I thought it was important that I talk about some things.

I know most of the MLP community is upset by the show's run officially coming to an end. Personally, witnessing the closing shot of the final episode was still one of the most hollowing things I've watched in a long time.

Friendship is Magic wasn't just a great show to me. Friendship is Magic and the Brony community as a whole have acted as the catalyst to many of the greatest things in my life. Many of my longest friendships, one of the greatest loves of my life, my interest in electronic music which has gradually evolved into my obsession with music in general, my interest in drawing, and especially my interest in reading/writing (which is the most crucial aspect of my college degree), can all be traced back to things I experienced and people that I met because of the Brony community.

What was so humbling to me about the ending wasn't just that the show had ended. But, it made me realize that despite the show itself acting as this profound catalyst of my life, it was also something that I had outgrown; I hadn't even watched a new episode premiere since 2015. I have however, never lost interests that the community made based around the show.

The truth is that despite FiM's cannon ending, the show is such a legendary, massive, sandbox of a franchise that - despite the creation of new fan material potentially slowing down in the future (as it has for the last five years)- interest in the series will continue to circulate, decrease, and increase again as people who were once massive fans of the franchise, decide to rekindle their passion for the series with their respective talents. After all, the characters, lessons, and overall legacy of FiM is something truly special and something that millions have irreplaceable, fond experiences of.

As for myself, while I'm not 100% sure I'll continue exclusively drawing MLP characters. But, I've got more than a dozen MLP line arts I've drawn since June of 2019, ready to be finalized (I really dislike coloring). I've got a new chapter of Holding Onto You coming out hopefully next week. And, I've got two new MLP/pony/abdl short stories and one long MLP/human/abdl story with a TBA release date.

The truth is that I've actually been working on a lot on more new material in the last four months than I have in the past three years. The only thing keeping me from completing the new stories is that I'm trying to push "Holding Onto You" into a direction that's simultaneously conscious of the absurdity of Scootaloo's situation, but also feels like a realistic, satisfying conclusion to everything I've established. Trust me though, considering how many chapters I still have planned for HOY, I plan on publishing some new stories before I conclude HOY.

Also, in case you're curious, the short stories are pretty kinky/fun romps. But, the long story is for the spirit! :twilightsmile:

That's cool! I admit I saw saw some of the early releases but delayed them a great deal from not being in the mood. I admit it's good too know they are ending it before it becomes nothing but a shadow of itself like The Simpsons has.

I just can see Scoots "come too her senses" so too speak and the others just simply stop playing around with it. and she goes back too casual tomboy outfits again (overalls, t-shirt and sneakers is a cute one!).

So MLP will die soon? What's the next series we will worship on

I don't want to spoil anything, but the ending will feel like a satisfying resolution I believe. :raritywink:

I don't think MLP or FiM will die, to be honest. I didn't mention it in the main post for the sake of tone. But, the fact that the FiM characters are as recognizable, yet archetypal as they are, means that fanfictions, animations, drawings, and the like will continue to be prominent on the internet for at least another decade.

Furries especially won't let FiM die. Plus, there is still a Gen 4 movie in 2021, a comic continuation of G4, and G5 coming out soon enough, after all. :twilightsmile:

That's cool!

Sorry for rambling though. I do see her as mostly a tomboy though, be it a girly one, a sporty one, a casual one or more a mix.

Sorry me again but I just thought Scoots may not entirely need too end her need for a little padding now and then, she may have a legit nighttime issue and need a age suitable item (I know of them but am no expert) for that little issue. She goes too bed is her slightly over-sized t-shirt with her (name item) somewhat viable but treated with accepted indifference.
