Friendship is Card Games: Generations #1 · 12:50pm Nov 21st, 2021
We’re not quite done with IDW yet. This week, we look at what may technically be part of G5. After all, what else do you get when you add G1 and G4?

At least, I think that’s the name of this storyline. The PDF I’m reading from doesn’t actually name it; it just gives chapter headings. In any case, the second comic storyline delves into another lingering question of the show: What is the Nightmare?
This is the main reason why I decided to skip over the comics a few weeks ago. I like the idea of the first card blog of 2022 using one of the oldest in-universe documents we have for source material. Let’s see what the diarchs thought of their first days on the throne.
Ugh. I hope that pun is the worst thing about this episode. I also doubt we’ll see any vamponies. We’ll see as this chronicle begins…
This week, it’s all about addiction and consumption. Whether it's power or pastry, enough is never enough. My next batch is almost ready; let’s look at the raw ingredients that went into it in the meantime.
This one’s a bit unusual. It comes as a request from SirNotAppearingInThisFic (and yes, I do plan on doing the official chapter books, including one next week.) I didn’t really know what I was getting into when he suggested, but having taken a look, this does work.
So, to overwhelmingly greater demand than I expected (i.e. any,) I am delving into the official Friendship is Magic novels. There are a staggeringly high number of them, along with journals, mysteries, handbooks (hoofbooks?) and more. I have a newfound respect for G. M. Berrow in terms of her sheer output. In any case, let’s see what the very first one has to offer.
We return to animation with a bang and several buckets’ worth of shenanigan potential. Let’s begin
Look, Estee noted that I design Magic cards in a recent blog. Then I mentioned in a comment on that blog that I had a few designs based on the Continuum. One thing lead to another, and here we are.
Rather appropriate spot for a novel focusing on Discord, honestly. An unexpected intrusion to G5 with startlingly little actual impact on it perfectly describes his actions in the comics thus far. But since the Make Your Mark series isn’t available until tomorrow, it’s noodle novel time.
Hello all. It’s time for the penultimate pre-Season 6 card blog, and since I already did a few cards for the Rainbow Rocks followup music videos, that means the bottom of the barrel consists of the Friendship Games shorts. As with last week, links have been provided for your convenience.
We come to the penultimate episode, though Winter Wishday is perfectly timed for two weeks from now. Awfully considerate of Netflix. Now, let’s see just what mystery is ahoof.
With all of Make Your Mark thus far behind us, it’s time to delve into the latest bit of pony media. Let’s see just how Hearth’s Warming Eve mutated in a world with neither magic nor tribal unity.
This week, we go from one end of the Equestrian timeline to the other as we return to Moonstuck..
As if in response to his notable absence last week, this episode is all about Spike, the cause of and solution to all life’s problems.
I’m playing a little fast and loose with the schedule this week, but as of writing this, I have a contest deadline to race, RL friends to meet, and a performance of Khan! the Musical to see with my mom as a belated Mother’s Day gift, so reviewing a pony novel isn’t feasible.
This week, we look at the second half of the second FiM/Transformers crossover. To review, the Decepticons accidentally revived Sombra in a bit to steal Equestrian magic, and now he’s claiming all of Cybertron as his new kingdom… along with half of the Mane Six. Let’s see where it goes from here.
Yeesh. They aren’t pulling any punches, are they? This is indeed the final premiere of Friendship is Magic. Let’s see how we start the endgame.
And so we move on to the English manga, which should provide me with a few months’ worth of content properly spaced out. Let’s see how it opens
This should certainly be interesting. I’m not entirely sure what to expect from this part of My Little Pony’s ruby jubilee (along with the Bridlewoodstock special and… well, Ruby Jubilee,) but there’s certainly a lot to take in. Let’s begin.
