textDisplay: I recommend that you don't watch the 2nd anthology until you have completed season 2.


textDisplay: Don't watch the second one till you're done with season two.


textDisplay: The green pony, Lyra Heartstrings, was another background pony like Derpy that the fandom latched onto early on, due to a scene in season . . . 1, I think?  Where you can see her in the background sitting on a bench in a decidedly human fashion.  It became a fandom meme that Lyra was obsessed with a long lost mythical race known as "Hoo-mans".  Check out the song "Anthropology", which has several animations done for it.  Although, maybe have someone vet them for you, to make sure they're spoiler free, first.

04:17 That's a reference to the movie "π" by Darren Aronofsky :)
06:00 Well, they might not have been old yet back then in 2011 ;)
06:45 Scooter's "Fire" song starts this way :J
10:35 And at that instant, Princess Celestia had been crashed to death by Tom the Boulder :q
13:46 %Cough%....
13:48 I thought it's Offspring?...  o.O
22:33 If you think 8-bit is nerdy, then how about playing it on floppy drives? :D  watch?v=_HhoIku_-yM
There is one more that you will unlock with episode 18 ;>
23:35 In due time. There may be spoilers. But I guess people will tell you when you can safely watch the other parts.
24:02 Don't know about the others, but I like her for sure ;>  Excited Lyra is best Lyra :)
As for Lyra Heartstrings, there's a couple of fan theories about her ;)  It all started from that one episode in which Lyra is sitting in a very weird way (for a pony) – she's sitting more like a Human would do ;J  So the fans started to speculate that she's secretly a Human who somehow got into Equestria and got magically transformed into a pony. According to other theories, she have lost her memories from the Human World, but subconsciously she remembers some of the stuff, so she sometimes acts like a Human, and she even came up with conspiracy theories about Humans once living in Equestria ;)  There are crazier theories too: e.g. that she's got a fetish about Human hands, or even that she likes to cook them up and eat them :q  If you haven't seen "Ponies with Hats", I think you can watch it, it's short and spoiler-free ;)  watch?v=OqAkq8v6LuQ
25:38 Heheh now you can feel how it is like to be in a nearby star system and receiving all those radio signals broadcasted from Earth 8 years ago ;)


textDisplay: Let me be the first to officially welcome you to the brony fandom, you're one of us now👏👏👏


textDisplay:
Man, I don't even remember if I've actually seen the first anthologies. Glad to rewatch it with you :)

Edit: Oh god, it's so old :0


textDisplay:
I like to watch the old Anthologies every so often, but it's always more fun to see a fresh reaction. There are now seven of 'em, growing longer and more epic (well, except for one of 'em, you'll see). Agree with other commenters that you shouldn't watch the next Anthology until you've completed S2 and ESPECIALLY stay away from Anthology 3 until finishing S3.

And if there's ever a reference you don't get, you can look it up on the MLP Fan Labor Wiki. It was Anthology VI that turned me on to Felix Cosgrove's "Double King," and for that alone I'll be forever grateful; I can't even remember how many things I learned about because of an Anthology.

("Double King" would make a great reaction subject, BTW)


textDisplay: Ponies Anthology certainly is an experience, one i'm sure we are all glad you enjoyed. ^^


textDisplay: I was looking for reactions on ponies the anthology 7 and found this fantastic channel


textDisplay:
On a sad note, PONIES: the Anthology, one of the most well-known and beloved series in the fandom, has officially ended 2 weeks ago with the release of Anthology 7.

RIP Anthology
2011 - 2019

textDisplay: Иван Сомкин Apparently, it's not actually finished yet. They just spread that rumour, but it's possible that another one will come in the future.

textDisplay: I mean, they said that at the end of Ponies the Anthology 6 too.

textDisplay:
and guess what, they are doing one more. XD

which i'm glad. i was hoping they would just to have an anthology that covered till the finale.


textDisplay: Holy crap...  I haven't seen this in so long, and it brings back a ton of memories.  So many old memes! XD


textDisplay: It's mainly just a bunch of random bits, but it still is pretty funny and entertaining. I love this kind of thing.The other anthology videos are good, but they also get really long, so expect to be sitting down for a while. Some are practically a feature length movie.


textDisplay: That jump scare at the end. 😂

textOriginal: That jump scare at the end. 😂


textDisplay: Dude. You knew like every song

textOriginal: Dude. You knew like every song


textDisplay: The first one feels so... <i>slow</i> compared to how they are now. Still holds up relatively well though. It's been a while since I watched it.

textOriginal: The first one feels so... _slow_ compared to how they are now. Still holds up relatively well though. It's been a while since I watched it.


textDisplay: The other Anthologies are over an hour long each except for number 4 which was cancelled, so it ended up being a promo for Bronycon.


textDisplay: I am injoying you reactions

textOriginal: I am injoying you reactions


textDisplay:
rc88, the creator of the winter wrap up song, is an amazing 8-bit artist. This is coming from someone who makes 8-bit covers as a hobby. Here's a playlist of MLP songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HilMAEYv774&list=PL4EE191F8F2448A37
It's mostly covers of very early MLP songs. They stopped making stuff on Youtube for a while, but they started making Them's Fighting Herds covers recently (a MLP-inspired fighting game)


textDisplay: You should react to some content from tridashie for some great fun and DWK for some great, more adult humor. And also only react to their content based on the current season/episode your up to date with to avoid spoilers. posiblly save them till your done season 3 to avoid any show plot points spoiled in thumbnails

textDisplay: Yeah, YouTube thumbnail spoilers is a real pain in the ass ;/  I have to use some serious hackery to block them entirely from displaying in my browser and be spoiler-safe ;q

textDisplay: I mean, dwk didn't start until season 6, so that'll be a while


textDisplay: "Confound them!" was actually part of a Warner Brothers cartoon. I think. It was a surreal experience.


textDisplay: Ah, you get to experience all 6 (7) for the first time.


textDisplay: Btw, Self Esteem is by The Offspring, not Green Day.

textDisplay: The Black Queen I thought I got that wrong lol


textDisplay: If you’re looking for more fan stuff to watch I would suggest turnabout storm it’s a MLP/ace attorney murder mystery.

textDisplay: ALL OF MY YES!!!  It's pretty darn long, but story-wise, I still consider it the most well-written story this fandom came up with. (At least from those I know of.)


textDisplay: Wow, you managed to get this up without immediately getting it claimed. (I've never actually seen that opening segment with audio in any of the reactions I watched back in the day.)


textDisplay: I recommend reacting to the other anthologies.


textDisplay: That's Offspring, not Green Day lol

textOriginal: That's Offspring, not Green Day lol


textDisplay: It probably said you need to request access. I was expecting the request and I was going to give you it, but it looks like whatever version you found has the unedited version. The edited one replaced the opening song with a stupid kazoo version.


textDisplay: U earned a Sub

textOriginal: U earned a Sub


textDisplay: Trust me, there is a good chunk of fans that hate Trixie too. I can't really get over her personality myself.


textDisplay: hey 2011 is the year i was botn

textOriginal: hey 2011 is the year i was botn

textDisplay: i meant to say born

textDisplay: Hold up, is this the original version of Ponies the Anthology? Where did you find this?

textDisplay: Security GoldFish this was what was on their YouTube channel

textDisplay: @@ponybroiguess384 Which channel? In 2016, the video was reuploaded on copyright grounds. The intro song was replaced with a kazoo cover.


textDisplay: Power Ponies? How did you predict the future?

textDisplay: BronyDan not really sure what that means lol

textDisplay: @@ponybroiguess384 There is an episode later on literally about the Power Ponies.

textDisplay: @@BronyDanProductions DUDE, SPOILERS.

textOriginal: @@BronyDanProductions DUDE, SPOILERS.

textDisplay: Wow, coming back and seeing this, you really dropped the spoiler ball, damn
