00:00:04.425 --> 00:00:06.362
YO WHAT'S UP KIDS IT'S

00:00:06.362 --> 00:00:07.312
Damario ~

00:00:07.312 --> 00:00:08.263
And WOW

00:00:08.271 --> 00:00:10.534
There's so much stuff that has changed since my last MLP video!

00:00:10.827 --> 00:00:12.827
The world! People! Internet!

00:00:15.545 --> 00:00:16.273
Youtube!

00:00:16.639 --> 00:00:18.639
WHAT * clap * ARE * clap * YOU * clap * WANKING * clap * YOUTUBE?

00:00:18.771 --> 00:00:19.928
Demonetization.

00:00:19.928 --> 00:00:22.485
Strike of a video that I spent my FUCKING life on.

00:00:22.485 --> 00:00:24.485
Shitty trends, subscriptions that doesn't work ...

00:00:25.946 --> 00:00:27.000
So.

00:00:27.001 --> 00:00:29.001
I'm not going to spit in the wind, we're not on Sir Gibsy's channel.

00:00:29.002 --> 00:00:30.605
It's time to get down to business.
*EN EXPLAINATION : Sir Gibsy's an alt right french youtuber who makes "reboot videos" often and it's kind of ridiculous (my opinion oc)

00:00:30.605 --> 00:00:31.556
Good...

00:00:32.008 --> 00:00:32.847
Well! Therefore.

00:00:33.861 --> 00:00:38.278
Aw shit, it's true that today having a character on a plain visual background is not really topical.

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:40.473
Well, unless I want to say ...

00:00:40.473 --> 00:00:42.473
SO FEMINAZIES HELICOPTER GENDER

00:00:42.474 --> 00:00:44.220
YOU GOOD WITH YOUR NON-MIXED EVENTS?

00:00:44.899 --> 00:00:46.053
*Damario > Left Winged*

00:00:46.053 --> 00:00:46.860
* sigh *

00:00:47.844 --> 00:00:48.397
But wait ...

00:00:48.584 --> 00:00:49.725
Something's wrong here.

00:00:49.726 --> 00:00:51.535
Quite a few old brony youtubers are leaving,

00:00:51.535 --> 00:00:55.539
but there are plenty of new brony youtubers who have taken advantage of the absence of the past game to settle in?

00:00:55.918 --> 00:00:56.900
Well done.

00:00:56.901 --> 00:00:58.551
Frankly, respect.

00:00:59.876 --> 00:01:01.574
BUT DON'T THINK YOU CAN STEAL MY VIEWS

00:01:01.574 --> 00:01:02.858
I WAS HERE BEFORE YOU LITTLE BRA-

00:01:06.001 --> 00:01:07.540
A few weeks ago ...

00:01:07.550 --> 00:01:09.089
I saw a new comment.

00:01:09.338 --> 00:01:10.877
"I miss you."

00:01:11.845 --> 00:01:12.684
And it hurt

00:01:13.007 --> 00:01:13.687
me ...

00:01:15.961 --> 00:01:18.247
But I'm not making this video because I give a fuck,

00:01:18.263 --> 00:01:18.927
far from it!

00:01:19.270 --> 00:01:21.270
It's just that I caught up on MLP!

00:01:25.436 --> 00:01:26.243
Wow.

00:01:26.262 --> 00:01:28.723
You are so nice for people who don't exist.

00:01:29.332 --> 00:01:31.507
Like I said, I took over MLP to catch up.

00:01:31.508 --> 00:01:33.906
I was at ...

00:01:33.907 --> 00:01:34.407
there!

00:01:34.735 --> 00:01:36.735
Yeah I was motivated to catch up.

00:01:36.736 --> 00:01:39.034
Even if I admit skipping a few episodes ...

00:01:39.034 --> 00:01:40.051
What did you do?

00:01:41.394 --> 00:01:44.666
Sorry, man, but boring consciousness characters have become way too common.

00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:46.680
We can't to do this anymore in 2018.

00:01:46.929 --> 00:01:48.850
But ... You can't do this to me.

00:01:48.850 --> 00:01:49.563
Well, yes.

00:01:51.925 --> 00:01:53.702
So yes, I skip some episodes.

00:01:53.703 --> 00:01:56.323
But at the same time, after 7 seasons I was a bit pissed off with too classic episodes.

00:01:56.552 --> 00:01:57.884
"Campfire Tales"?

00:01:58.333 --> 00:02:00.368
WOW I WONDER WHAT IT 'S ABOUT

00:02:00.368 --> 00:02:01.621
wooOOOOOW

00:02:01.656 --> 00:02:03.334
That sounds SO INTERESTING

00:02:03.335 --> 00:02:04.270
Wait.

00:02:04.270 --> 00:02:05.100
"Fanfiction"?

00:02:06.804 --> 00:02:07.341
It was cool.

00:02:07.689 --> 00:02:11.677
Well, if I had to summarize a bit I would say that MLP has never really lost in quality in recent seasons.

00:02:11.678 --> 00:02:15.268
I think where I started to realize that my perspective had changed over the years

00:02:15.268 --> 00:02:17.268
was when I saw two characters a little too close to each other.

00:02:34.093 --> 00:02:37.222
Apart from that we can clearly see that season 5 served as a break in the series.

00:02:37.222 --> 00:02:40.478
Before that we followed mane 6! The elements of harmony and their evolution.

00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:44.785
Then Starlight came along and started a kind of transition as the Mane 6 stalled in development.

00:02:44.785 --> 00:02:48.000
Fluttershy is the only one to have received significant development since the beginning.

00:02:48.014 --> 00:02:50.443
Twilight has become ball-busting, etc. etc.

00:02:50.444 --> 00:02:55.500
But with this transition, lots of new elements like Starlight, Trixie, Maud, Sunburst, Thorax and the Pillars

00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:56.721
are introduced to take over.

00:02:56.816 --> 00:03:00.788
It feels like we're approaching the end of the series and that it's time for the current Mane 6 to withdraw little by little

00:03:00.789 --> 00:03:01.900
or to renew itself.

00:03:02.111 --> 00:03:04.111
And speaking of renewal! ...

00:03:04.112 --> 00:03:05.381
oh that transition... 

00:03:05.382 --> 00:03:08.352
It's time to ride the hype wave that's fueling the brony community.

00:03:08.353 --> 00:03:11.667
And damn, is it me or that term got as cancerous as my 2016 self?

00:03:11.668 --> 00:03:13.668
Stop thinking that all men ...

00:03:13.669 --> 00:03:14.445
Yeah shut up.

00:03:14.446 --> 00:03:17.527
I'm talking of course about the 5th generation which will arrive by 2020.

00:03:17.528 --> 00:03:21.388
And like EVERYONE on this platform, I decided that "I was going to give my opinion"

00:03:21.389 --> 00:03:23.200
because I have an above average ego .

00:03:23.201 --> 00:03:24.485
ATTENTION

00:03:24.486 --> 00:03:27.790
From now on, I will talk about the design proposals that have leaked,

00:03:27.791 --> 00:03:29.600
as well as the changes planned for the license.

00:03:29.600 --> 00:03:33.434
So if you want to stay innocent of any potential spoils, you have 5 seconds to exit the video.

00:03:39.793 --> 00:03:40.410
Ok.

00:03:40.670 --> 00:03:42.543
Look at these DESIGNS

00:03:42.798 --> 00:03:43.860
YEEEEEEEES

00:03:43.861 --> 00:03:46.608
It's so BEAUTIFUL, HARMONIOUS, UNIQUE, the race change is perfect

00:03:46.609 --> 00:03:48.609
it's so interesting AAAAAAH

00:03:48.983 --> 00:03:50.983
There's going to be a movie to introduce the new generation?

00:03:51.001 --> 00:03:52.142
In 3D?!

00:03:52.301 --> 00:03:52.854
* HMMMM *

00:03:52.855 --> 00:03:55.125
The big question is "Will it look like this?"

00:03:56.395 --> 00:03:57.425
Or THIS!

00:04:00.354 --> 00:04:02.354
Applejack will change personality?

00:04:02.446 --> 00:04:04.134
SHE HAD A PERSONALITY?

00:04:04.135 --> 00:04:05.165
WOW

00:04:05.166 --> 00:04:05.830
Wait wait…

00:04:05.831 --> 00:04:08.800
"They also want to lean towards more mature themes to reach a more mature audience as well."

00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.747
And THAT interests me.

00:04:10.748 --> 00:04:12.955
Everyone should know this but for the four who might not know:

00:04:12.956 --> 00:04:16.435
The fourth generation was made with the aim of bringing children and their parents together.

00:04:16.435 --> 00:04:19.334
It was in any case the intention of Lauren Faust, creator of G4.

00:04:19.335 --> 00:04:21.144
Except that it woooorked ...

00:04:21.145 --> 00:04:22.747
a little too well?

00:04:22.748 --> 00:04:24.000
We all know why it worked.

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:24.934
SEX.

00:04:26.868 --> 00:04:28.089
Oh that feels good.

00:04:28.089 --> 00:04:29.024
I'm fine!

00:04:29.164 --> 00:04:31.704
So to come back to what we said, the show is very well done,

00:04:31.705 --> 00:04:33.705
and the universe and the cast are very endearing.

00:04:33.706 --> 00:04:35.499
But I don't think I'm telling you new stuff on this one.

00:04:35.500 --> 00:04:39.551
I remember this video that I made in 2014 which introduced the series to newcomers.

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:41.759
Good morning to you dear internet user!

00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:43.603
* sigh * The fragility.

00:04:43.604 --> 00:04:45.874
With this success affecting a more mature demographic than expected,

00:04:45.875 --> 00:04:48.861
we felt that the studio behind the show has sought since season 4 to push the limits

00:04:48.862 --> 00:04:51.500
of what they were able to do scriptwriting and visually speaking.

00:04:51.501 --> 00:04:53.899
While remaining within the specifications of their distribution medium,

00:04:53.900 --> 00:04:55.667
The Hub or today Discovery Family.

00:04:55.668 --> 00:04:57.461
The thing is, these idiots are good!

00:04:57.462 --> 00:05:01.084
And that they've managed to reach new heights despite the label of "youth series" which sticks to their asses.

00:05:01.085 --> 00:05:03.403
The question posed by this G5 is then the following:

00:05:03.404 --> 00:05:05.245
Can we go further?

00:05:05.246 --> 00:05:08.804
You are undoubtedly aware of it, but during all these years the community has continued to use this universe

00:05:08.805 --> 00:05:11.425
and its characters in fanfictions, music, drawings and so on.

00:05:11.426 --> 00:05:12.583
And that's normal!

00:05:12.584 --> 00:05:17.017
You have a universe with magic, fantastic creatures like hippogriffs or fucking dragons ...

00:05:17.018 --> 00:05:20.592
full of different backgrounds, prophecies, a mythology and a society unique to this universe.

00:05:20.593 --> 00:05:22.323
There is so much to tap into!

00:05:22.324 --> 00:05:24.149
Be careful, don't make me say what I didn't say.

00:05:24.149 --> 00:05:26.515
I really like the fourth generation, really!

00:05:26.516 --> 00:05:29.025
I think DHX has really managed to do something special.

00:05:29.026 --> 00:05:31.026
Whether it is the animation, the narration, the songs ...

00:05:31.027 --> 00:05:33.806
And there is really not much that we can fault them overall in terms of production.

00:05:33.807 --> 00:05:37.922
Moreover, we can already feel this desire to evolve on their part by watching the evolution of character designs.

00:05:37.923 --> 00:05:40.829
Those of Mane 6, and characters from the first seasons, respond to "less is more".

00:05:40.830 --> 00:05:44.102
A design principle that indicates that simple shapes and colors can be far more evocative

00:05:44.103 --> 00:05:45.900
than your edgy highschool OC.

00:05:45.901 --> 00:05:46.629
Example:

00:05:46.629 --> 00:05:47.882
BOP, Pinkie Pie.

00:05:47.883 --> 00:05:51.600
I don't need to tell you anything about her for you to guess that she is the happy and extravagant type.

00:05:51.668 --> 00:05:55.513
Ditto for Twilight with its strict mane, reflecting her organized side etc etc ...

00:05:55.514 --> 00:05:58.945
These designs have proven their worth, and they're partly responsible for the show's success!

00:05:58.946 --> 00:06:02.059
However we can see that some newer designs are a bit more complex.

00:06:02.060 --> 00:06:04.235
They have a different vibe, are a little less flashy.

00:06:04.884 --> 00:06:07.774
Despite that, there are two things that have convinced me that this series can go far beyond

00:06:07.774 --> 00:06:09.488
what it's just exploring for now.

00:06:09.488 --> 00:06:11.297
The first is the season 5 finale.

00:06:11.298 --> 00:06:16.000
You already know it if you've been following me for a long time, but it's in THIS double episode that I felt that the team had let go.

00:06:16.001 --> 00:06:20.134
And honestly I think it was a way for them to test other worlds and possibilities.

00:06:20.135 --> 00:06:23.598
In my opinion, this is what we have the closest artisticly to G5 currently.

00:06:23.599 --> 00:06:26.617
Just look at Rainbow Dash's design which is very similar to her G5 one.
*well, one of the possible designs*

00:06:26.618 --> 00:06:30.637
This double episode shows all the artistic and scriptwriting potential that this universe holds.

00:06:30.638 --> 00:06:32.352
The second thing that convinced me

00:06:32.353 --> 00:06:33.367
was the movie.

00:06:33.368 --> 00:06:35.368
But look at THAT, this animation!

00:06:35.369 --> 00:06:38.069
It runs over my eyes like honey in a hoarse throat.

00:06:38.070 --> 00:06:40.690
Oh my GOD, it's MAGNIFICENT, these sets, these characters, this music!

00:06:40.691 --> 00:06:42.691
It's so different and UNIQUE AAAAAA

00:06:42.692 --> 00:06:45.901
I don't have much to say about the movie apart from emphasizing its undeniable quality.

00:06:45.902 --> 00:06:49.714
Like the Season 5 finale, it explores quite a few aspects of the universe just waiting to be developed.

00:06:49.715 --> 00:06:52.876
When we know that the next generation is targeting a more mature audience and terms,

00:06:52.877 --> 00:06:57.246
we can wonder if this isn't the opportunity to FINALLY push this universe and this series to its full potential!

00:06:57.247 --> 00:06:58.404
I think so.

00:06:58.405 --> 00:07:01.598
And according to the information we have, the new design proposals and the last seasons, this

00:07:01.599 --> 00:07:03.122
is the direction that the license is taking.

00:07:03.122 --> 00:07:04.000
Well, in my opinion.

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:04.680
VOILA

00:07:04.681 --> 00:07:06.681
I have finished speaking.

00:07:07.222 --> 00:07:08.824
I don't know how to finish a video anymore ...

00:07:08.824 --> 00:07:09.806
how do we do it?

00:07:10.232 --> 00:07:10.944
Ah yes!

00:07:10.944 --> 00:07:12.515
STARLIGHT IS BEST PON-
