    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

Fanfic plans · 12:17pm Dec 23rd, 2019

I'm thinking about entering the Go Big or Go Home AppleDash writing contest. Usually I enter writing contests only if I already have a fanfic idea that loosely fits the contest theme. I didn't have an idea that would fit this theme, but for the opportunity to win a decent cash prize, I decided to come up with a new idea. And . . . I'm not sure if my fanfic will be one of the strongest entries, since my story could work just as easily if their relationship were platonic. But for the chance to win $500, I'm willing to give it a try.

I'm still going to work on Earth Ponies Are Blessed with Suck, but not Hallmark Presents: Yuletide Masquerade. The interest in the Yuletude fic isn't high enough for me to justify continuing it. OTOH, the earth pony fanfic is finally nearing 1,000 views, which, while nowhere close to its predecessor, is still a respectable number.
