Does Make Your Mark Get Better? · 3:16am Oct 2nd, 2022
I don’t like it. I’m on the third episode, I’m finding it dull, and don’t like Hitch turning into Phylis or Opaline being so abusive.
Also Earth Pony Magic doesn’t work that way.
I do want to write fics about the new ponies but I’m tempted to just make up my own stuff and ignore canon.
I do that half the time for G4 anyway…
That's one of the joys of writing a fanfic, you can completely ignore the canon and make up your own if you so like.

Truth.

If you don't ignore Canon then is it a fanfiction?

As long as you're not trying to recreate an episode(s) or movie(s) scene-for-scene and line-for-line.

At that point you're recreating the script for an episode or movie, not writing fanfiction

That would be plagiarism and if someone did that, at the very least they'd get the story taken down and a temporary ban.
I personally think it wasn’t that bad. It wasn’t that special either, but at least it wasn’t offensively bad like some other kids shows.
Definitely not like G4 but not like G3 or Pony Life either. It’s totally fine to look for something else to watch, if it doesn’t impress.

Hence the reason why it wouldn't be fanfiction
Also, we're talking about copyrighted intellectual property (My Little Pony)

I think the G5 movie and TYT are excellent, to be clear.
