This series is literally the best fan dub of anything I've ever seen. I love the way the 'show' is made with mature content. Not just swearing or sex themes but little hints and secrets only the most keen can pick up, that said, it took me three views of the entire series to understand it fully. It might be a bit tough for me to say this right, but I love this series and where it's going. The specials are the best and I can't wait for another episode no matter what it is. If there is any support I can give just say the word. Now excuse me while I go back to watch it for the 4th time so I can like and favorite each episode.
Intense! This was definitely my favorite of the 3 parts. I loved "I am your father reference", which was really well executed. I also really laughed at the snacks part. :) I was also really impressed with the voice actors for Celestia and the pony that had Twilight captive in the beginning. Once again, the audio mixing was very well done, and it got really intense with the torched scene. Overall, you definitely amped up from your previous Halloween special. Great job!
+Scootertrix Studios Thanks a lot! You guys did such an amazing job too! And I'm sure we'll be able to find a good spot for Fish Hook and Inkwell in next year's special :)
As always, it was Great! Cool, finally we know who bear the element of Magic. It makes totally sense why nobody knows about the Elements. Sorry to hear that Michael ended his voice acting career. He did astounding work as the Master... Anna is playing Celestia now that is so awesome!!!! š ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
+madcurse Thank you! Yeah, it is too bad that Michael stopped, but he said that he was happy that this could be his final project. And we're happy to have her too! She did such a wonderful job :D
Btw, Twilight being the element of Magic isn't what the Master and girls were referring to :3
Quite an intense climax just like Revenge of the Sith! I do like the conclusion of alabaster with Celestia looking through his memories and logs the see the full story of what he's been through so that she made a agreeable sentence for his hardships and Vendetta that was kind of started by Twilight and her friends just arrested him off the back after his aid of freeing him and the souls from the mansion! He's definitely one of the best /New Earth Pony villain, besides the Mane-iac ,that had a fitting conclusion and was able to go toe-to-toe with the elements of harmony through more creative means. He's right that he's probably safer at Griffonstone or the Storm King's territory knowing the oncoming storm that's approaching soon , symptoms of the arrival of the Villains: Discord's Chaos, Queen Chrysalis's infiltration to reveal Hidden Truths, King Sombra's Curse of War, The Mane-iac's Insanity rivaling the Mane 6, Tirek's Desolation; And the final Stormbreaker would be either: Starlight ,Trixie ,Sunset, & Cozy Glow working with Twilight to overthrow Celestia one last time Or the Pony of Shadows & Grogar unleashing total Darkness over Equestria ensuring it's destruction and depression that the elements of harmony must overcome!
Wait, they just KILLED Cthulhu? Like THE Cthulhu? I know the elements are powerful, but that's another level. How? He's not ever a proper Elder God, but still.
Lol, "...Get on and brace yourself, we're doing this dry."
Yet another really good special. Honestly, between the length and the weightier plot, I'm liking these more than the regular episodes. The voices were much clearer this time, you guys are getting much better at your sound work. The scripts that you guys put together was excellent, which leads me to think that when you have a chance to create with fewer restrictions(like when you're trying to put together an episode) you make a much higher quality product.
The only thing I have to really complain about is the voices for Fluttershy and Pinkie. Pinkie's pitched right, but the tone isn't quite right. I know you guys are holding fluttershy auditions, so I'm excited to see how that works out.
+Alex Kroeker Good to know that we're not the only ones who found that line funny out of context XD
Thanks a lot! The restrictions from the episodes are interesting because yes, we do have to tailor our dialogue more to the footage we have, however what's going on in an episode does help us with our writing sometimes. Or maybe it just seems easier because it restricts the possibilities of what can happen in a scene? Who knows. We personally would like to believe though that the characters and writing are much better when we have no footage to limit us!
As for Fluttershy and Pinkie, hopefully it wasn't too much to take you out of it. Keep in mind, that it was Kami's first time working with us, and these audio plays are much tougher to act in then the episodes. Plus we were working against the clock.
We'd say if you're gonna be upset at anyone for the way Pinkie and Fluttershy's parts came out, be upset at the line director :)
Ha ha, duly noted. No, I loved listening to it, it just made it a little hard to pick out the characters sometimes. I like what you guys are doing, so if you keep making it, I'll keep watching and putting my two cents in.
+TheKanterlot I know, I was joking, lol. You're show is far too serious for out of nowhere musical numbers. I just wanted to know if you thought "Master of Your Fate" would be a good song for "The Master" if he did have to sing one. If not, can you think of a better one to match him?
+SuperWorldJumper Maybe something like Pink Floyd's "The Thin Ice." He seems very similar to the antagonist/protagonist from "The Wall". A man filled with so much trauma that he eventually broke and became a wannabe-dictator, madman. Before having a change of heart just before it was too late.
+Alpha121198 Yep! alabaster is a mineral used in medieval churches, and the name is similar to Aleister. As in Aleister Crowley, occultist and self-proclaimed prophet.
+TheKanterlot If you don't mind the question, what color was Alabaster/ the Master? I always saw him as a light grey in my head, strangely enough of a similar shade as the color of the mineral alabaster.
+Alpha121198 That's pretty much exactly right! He's like a brownish light grey, with a black mane and green eyes. Tall and skinny. We actually have character designs for all of our characters in this, and the images will be made at some point.
The only thing we weren't able to think of is Alabaster's cutie mark, so his flank would be covered in every picture he's in.
Just went scrolling through the wiki page (I know, I am an amazing researcher[this is meant to be read sarcastically]) and there was Aleister's rendition of the unicursal hexagram, you could probably use that as some sort of inspiration for the mark. But what am I saying? You've probably already tried something like that and researched the implications of that symbol.
Just, what the actual fuck? You've gone from a fairly mediocre abridged series to a beautiful genre blending mess of emotions and awesome. I don't know how you did it, but you have my utmost respect. The fact that this video only has 8 likes is completely absurd.
My only real criticism is that the different pieces of Friendship is for Adults are a little confusing to puzzle together. How things fit into the timeline and to what degree different things are canon is left pretty vague. For example it's never stated but i assume a lot of the "normal" episodes yet to come will take place before this?
+IKilledTheKat Thank you very much! Sorry you don't enjoy our episodes more. There's a huge difference between having a completely blank canvas to work with to having to work with footage.
Yes, this takes place probably sometime after episode 15. Honestly we probably should have waited until next Halloween to do this but we were so excited we had to get it out now.
We've had a lot of the plot aspects of our series planned out for awhile, but it's only through these specials that this can really be explored.
+TheKanterlot Oh no, don't get me wrong, "mediocre abridged series" is mostly just my initial impression of the first episode. The added context and just general improved quality has made the newer episodes really enjoyable.
+TheKanterlot Last comment on part 2/3, where I questioned an Equine's ability to wield a pistol. I thought I would make a joke out of it from the amount of times a gun is shot in here, as if I hadn't really moved on.
@TheKanterlotĀ Yay. I might be considered weird for the fact I love hearing the planning process or what was going on during production so much... Eh, who cares?
