Love the difference between season 1 opener "i feel like such a girl" and season 4 finale "That was awesome. I love this show."


Imagine having been on this ride for 4 years and then losing the library. Shit was brutal.

tbh it put me off the show for a while, especially since it was primarily done to sell a new crystal playset

@@Cheddarhead7  Because Hasbro is retarded with their marketing. They could have easily sell the Library playset instead. Inb4 someone says: "But now they have a new playset to sell: the castle!": yeah, but they also lose the ability to sell the old playset when the library is no longer a thing :P  If they were smart, they could have had both to sell :q

@@bonbonpony Even worse: The original script had the posibility of keeping both!
Instead of "growing" a new castle from nothing, on a random location many kilometers away... The Tree of Harmony would had reconstruct & modify the ruins of the Castle of The Two Sisters (simply because it is very close to it).
-> Then that same "Rainbow of Light" could have regenerated the Golden Oak Library [this way Twilight gets "a castle" without Ponyville losing its library.

@@adolfodef Really??<br>It probably would've been nice to keep it, but maybe with the castle it wouldn't have been used as much.(well by Twitlight. It IS the town's library lol) Just "sitting there" if you will, compared to before.. They integrated the tree remains whether well later on with the sweet sentiments

@@Cheddarhead7 I am generally opposed to several of the changes they made to MLP just because they wanted to sell new toys, mainly the new castle and Twilight becoming a princess.  I don't hate the changes, but I would have still preferred it if they didn't change.

I didn't really think losing the library was necessary. The library makes Twilight, well, Twilight. In my opinion, I'm not a huge fan of the entire castle idea, but I don't hate it. I'm leaving the toy discussion out of this one.

I left and stop watching for a while, and I actually had came back right at the time of these episodes so I returned to her library being destroyed. :(((

IKR?! Felt like I got SOCKED in the stomach after that. Lol

It was just a stupid library, nothing more.

@@Icy-be5vl homie it wasn’t just a stupid library. It was the og cozzy place that brought them all together. Plus it’s design is way better than the empty castle.

@@somebodyontheinternet39 Castle is princessy and sweet. That's the place I want to be and I am not a homie. I am a princess girl who has needs.

@@somebodyontheinternet39 nah. The castle is cute and its a centerpiece.

@@mimaaellian2678youll never get what made the golden oak library special. "bronies" such as you never will

I didn't mind the castle so much.  I wasn't fond of WHY they brought it in.  But overall, I kind of liked the design, and I liked the idea that she more/less had her own Headquarters now and was going to be dealing with more serious things.  I just wish it would've been utilized to its full potential.  It pretty much just exists to give the mane six missions from that point onward.  But it could've been a full on headquarters with various facilities in it that could all be used to help the mane six with their missions, instead of the map just saying, 'Ok, you two.  Go here next'.

That said, this is where the show really gets into the more serious lessons.  We start really expanding the world now.


Ya know, going back and watching Discord’s reformation I can see why he betrayed everyone. The only one who truly treated him like a friend was Fluttershy. Everyone else treated him like a nuisance

(SPOILERS FOR S9) even when everyone thought he DIED, flutter shy was the only one who cared about him and the others were just sad he couldn't use his  powers to get sombra.

@manal3340  what does my comment having one like have to do with anything? Discord betrayed the mane six multiple times, of course they aren't gonna trust him as much except fluttershy, and treat him like trash, and I wouldn't blame them. Also, discord is just a dick to everyone except for fluttershy. He also always causes problems for the mane 6, and never learns his lesson.

@manal3340  bro your two comments also have 1 like your no different-


Something I thought was absolutely hilarious was the writing staff had a few notes of things they were and were not allowed to do during the fight of twilight vs Teric The one they love the most was a posted note that simply stated: “ Twilight is not allowed to punch Teric”

The general rule of kids shows is that violence more acceptable if it's unrealistic fantasy violence instead of something that children can easily imitate. This, though, still seemed to stretch the limits on what they could get away with, and I love it for that.

@@fusionomni305  And yet Fluttershy could kick Rainbow Dash in the stomach and smash her guts to the ground in "Dragon Quest" :q  Cartoon rules these days.... 9_9

Ah yes, good ol' Hasbro Standards and Practices. G.I. Joe never shot bullets, it was lasers all the way. Aqua Teen Hunger Force lampooned the heck out of this silliness in 3x04, "Gee Whiz", one of my favorites from that show for exactly this reason.

What's funny about that is if Twilight hits Tirek in the face with a hoof, is it technically a punch?  After all, she's not making a fist.

@@Nazo-kage Also, they've 'punched' villains before already.


41:21 "Well there's your new playset!"
Fun fact: Hasbro mandated that the new castle be added into the show, but it wasn't their idea to blow up Twilight's library.  When the show producers were given the mandate, they asked Hasbro if they needed the tree anymore, and if not, would it be okay if they had it blown up.

The guys at Hasbro were like "Uhhhh... okay, sure."


17:59 one thing to remember about Discord is that aside from Fluttershy most ponies didn’t really give him a chance or treat him as a friend, as is seen by how the mane six (except Fluttershy) look annoyed whenever he shows up.
People have come up with longer analysis on why he switched sides, but I’ll try to sum up my personal thoughts. Discord is still pretty oblivious in the whole friendship department, so since he only really had one friend (Fluttershy) perhaps he thought Tirek could fill his need for a friend and he could do whatever he wanted as well. Yes, no pony can replace Fluttershy, but as I said, Discord is still pretty clueless, and he is also very old, which means it’s probably very hard for him to get used to living/acting differently then he always has. I’m not trying to defend him, I’m just saying I can see a possible thought process. . . . I guess Discord just has to learn things the hard way, as he did in this episode. ;)

That's one of the things I love about MLP: the complex psychology behind all the characters, including the villains. They're not just acting evil for the sake of being evil – they always have their motives, ones that you can relate to if put in their situation. It's always that they took the wrong turn some time in the past. They didn't really want to end up that way, but it's the only way they know. And once you figure out what's their problem, you can help them out and reform them. There's always potential for reformation in every villain. But sometimes finding the right thing that will click with them is the hardest.

@@princessstarlaixyarixes8103 Where did I say that he was? :q  I said that there's always potential for a villain to be reformed, once you figure out the "thorn in their paw" (metaphorically speaking).
Speaking of Tirek, though, of the three villains from the finale, he was the one with the most potential for reformation, because he's smart, he understands the power of Friendship, and he's almost been there. It's just that his greed of power is stronger as of yet. He still has some friendship lessons to go through, if they will ever unfreeze them from stone, that is. And it's been already hinted in the finale what might be the root cause of his drive to power: he wants to prove himself in the eyes of his father, king Vorak, and prove that he's better than his brother, Scorpan, probably as the first to the throne. Discord knew his weak spot, and judging by his reaction this might be it.

I will never forget the day when My Little Pony went straight up Dragon Ball Z. That fight scene blew my mind. This whole finale also really came at a good time, as I too was wondering what the status of a princess meant for Twilight, and where the show was going. I was starting to worry that they weren't going to address that.


It only gets even better and less of a kid show from here! Be prepared.

I feel like it went more towards a kids show again in season 8 and 9 when the school and new characters and stuff were introduced, the lessons were more simple and there wasn't much action but i still love it

@@hazelmoomoos9416 In season 8 child was a villain, it's pretty good.

When Twilight was being given the magic of Celestia, Luna, and Cadance, you asked how powerful Twilight would be.  Here's your answer.  Tirek had the power of every Unicorn, Pegasus, and Earth Pony in Equestria, plus Discord's magic.  When Twilight and Tirek fought, Twilight had no control worth speaking of, and was just brute forcing it instead of the finesse that unicorn magic is known for.  Meanwhile, the magic Tirek stole was converted into his own magic, and brute forcing it is his way of using magic, so he was at his peak performance while Twilight was held back severely by lack of control.  It was due to this lack of control and experience that Twilight was unable to hurt Tirek, but conversely, the part of her new power that was innately there as Earth Pony stamina and endurance was so powerful that Tirek couldn't hurt her either.  That's why they were at an impasse; their defensive capability outshone their opponent's ability to harm.  And you should know from the look on Twilight's face that for only the second time in the series, Twilight was out for blood, so she would have had no qualms against hurting Tirek if she could.

When was the first time Twilight was out for blood?<br>I'm kinda new to watching the series, and have only seen a few episodes, from some seasons.

I'm kinda new to watching the series, and have only seen a few episodes, from some seasons.

@@hyrulianhero9004 When Queen Chrysalis of the Changelings was taunting her about 'plans she has for Twilight's brother, Shining Armor' while wearing her old foalsitter's face.  That is to say, while continuing to have Twilight believe Chrysalis was her old foalsitter, Cadence.  Twilight probably would have killed Cadence after finding her at the tail end of Chrysalis' taunting if Cadence hadn't proven her identity to her so quickly.

It is scary indeed, that she had the intent to hurt, what's even scarier she has no control. It's like "I have a shotgun, and I don't know how to use it" meaning the lack of control always equal to someone dying, while if you do know how to control it, you know how to aim properly and not kill your victim.


Funny how I'm in the 2% of people who actually liked the "powered-up" designs and didn't mind the castle at first, I guess I'm just a fan of bright color schemes... Anyway, great reaction, really reignites the memory of my first time watching this, truly a once in a lifetime experience: witnessing a Dragon Ball style fight against a soul-stealing centaur demon, happening in a 7+ cartoon for little girls.

The Rainbow Power designs have grown on me over time.  Now I don't find them gaudy anymore; I can actually enjoy them unironically.

They look like if the mane six had the super emeralds from sonic 3 and knuckles

I like the rainbow design but they are underused


I showed that fight to my friends who don't watch MLP and it blew their minds!


13:17 Discord: "I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!"

Also, that song of the four princesses is one of my all-time favorites of all the MLP songs.


8:20 Princess Cadance: "You're gifted and you are Strong~"
Tara Strong, to be exact.  ;)


By Celestia's mighty beard...  every single time I hear that ballad of the Princesses I get chills.  Magnificent and intense.

I especially love Cadence's part in it, and not just because her lovely singing voice, but also because her phrase changes the harmony of the song in a very contrived way, going outside the key for a moment :)

Right?  its a beautiful transition that takes it from sort of ballad of commiseration with Luna and Celestia which is beautiful in its own right, unexpectedly towards this rousing and empowering heavenly extended orchestral swell of voices.  Not sure if I'm using meaningful terms here, but it makes my heart ache.

I feel like I have to add this link to this magnificent cover.  Do I even have to mention how amazing it is that our beloved Daniel Ingram got together himself and various singers together to do this for us just for the sheer joy of it?

The medallion that became the last key was supposed to be a symbol of friendship, but it had become a symbol of betrayal.

But when Discord gave that medallion to Twilight as a <i>true</i> symbol of friendship, that act restored the item to its true purpose.

Alright, 500 subs! This is an awesome season finale, one of my top favorites of the series! Kicking off with a beautiful princess quartet song, that was a great start. And then we have the G4 debut of Lord Tirek. Back when this finale aired, I had no knowledge of this villain or Scorpan. Still, seeing what Tirek was capable of by stealing the magic from living creatures really convinced me that this guy was bad news, and in turn peaked my interest. From his smart, manipulative tactics to his incredible prowess, Lord Tirek instantly became my favorite Equestrian baddie of all. Speaking of incredible prowess, the epic showdown between Twilight and Tirek has left a huge impression on me, emitting Dragon Ball levels of action. One of the best sequences in the whole series! On the note of the Rainbow Power, it did seem a little jarring, but I grew to like the designs over time. Awesome reaction, PonyBro!

Yeah, knowing that so far they have solved every problem with magic and rainbow lasers, introducing a villain that can feed on magic was the smartest idea to drop a monkey wrench into their gears :>  What are they gonna do now, being unable to use their magic to win this time? ;>  They will have to find a different way, that would expose what the Magic of Friendship is really about ;> That was brilliant.

An argument could be made that discord betrayed them because he new what twilight had to do to earn her key.  He is the one that figured out how to open it and led her to figure it out. It may have just been part of his master plan.


I came to this video to see your reaction to the Tirek battle, but man.
I forgot how good the "Play your part" song was, and it was really heartwarming to watch your reactions around 8:31. Like, your facial emotions are subtle but oh my god are they just the perfect reaction to this gorgeous song. Just being on the verge of actual tears from the sheer beauty of the harmony and the lyrics.


Huzzah!  Another excellent reaction to another awesome season finale!  And I'm so glad you took our advice and watched "Rescue at Midnight Castle" before these episodes.

As for fan-works, I would suggest the "Mentally Advanced Series" (so you can then start reacting to the various "Rainbow Dash Presents" videos!)  You need to get several episodes of MAS under your  belt (so you'll understand their interpretation of the MAS-Mane-Six characters) before diving into RDP.

. . . . .

I find this finale very interesting -- especially comparing the whole "Key" element plot to the earlier "Three's A Crowd" episode  To me, it really looks like "Threes" could have been Twilight's "Key" Episode -- but she failed that test!

Consider: in "Threes" Twilight was presented with a challenge to the core concept of "Friendship/Magic" in the person of Discord (who can be very challenging).  Rather than actually behaving as a true friend to Discord in spite of his trolling -- and in so doing teaching him the true value of friendship -- Twilight instead just tried to get rid of Discord as quickly as possible (regardless as to whether or not the "sick" Discord actually needed Twilight's help.)  Why, "Threes" even ended with Discord giving a mocking "we've learned a lesson in Friendship" speech and presenting Twilight with an amulet as a token of his, well, frenemy-ship.  Unlike the rest of the Mane Six, Twilight didn't dig deep when presented with the challenge to Friendship/Magic that her "friend" Discord represented.  Twilight didn't attempt to truly embody her element in a way that would inspire Discord to emulate her example.

Of course, if Twilight had succeeded, then Discord would have had two true friends -- rather than just real-friend Fluttershy and a bunch of "friends-in-name-only" who constantly tell him to get lost and leave them alone -- and thus Discord would have been much less likely to be seduced back to the Dark Side by Tirek!  This would have made for a very short finale.  But contrasting "Threes" to this episode: Discord causes problems, needs to be taught about real friendship, Twilight provides the needed example and the lesson, leading to a true change-of-heard for the Draconequess, who then gives a genuine and heartfelt "I see the power of Friendship now" speech and he then hands her an amulet as a token of this transformation.  Huge parallels.

Indeed, I found Tirek's arguments towards Discord carried substantial weight.  Ever since his reformation, Discord's been treated as a friend by Fluttershy -- but everypony else has really only used that friendship as a leash to keep him from acting up.  With one notable exception (Pinkie in "Threes") no pony made any effort to ever include Discord in anything!  No pony was ever happy to see him.  Or even willing to make an effort to be his friend.  So I can see how the whole "What is friendship to you?  Just a cage that others have put you in to keep you from realizing your true nature and full potential.  Let me offer you freedom." line Tirek spun Discord would really hit home with the Lord of Chaos.  If only the rest of the Mane Six had remembered that Celestia had charged all of them (not just Fluttershy) to become Discord's friends and help him reform and become a true ally of Equestria, if only they had bothered to exert some effort towards that end, then this subsequent second-fall of Discord might have been avoided.

But ... that would have cost us the epic fight scene we witnessed!  As well as Discord's ultimate reformation.  So ... huzzah for the Mane Six dropping the ball on this one!

Also: RIP Golden Oaks Library.  We'll have to see what becomes of that iconic location.  Trees have been known to survive some pretty nasty damage.  But then again, that was one heck of an explosion that blasted it into a smoking ruin.


I love watching your vids! They bring back feelings as if I’m watching it for the first time all over again😍


25:50 Small moments like this shows that Discord hadn't completely sided with Tirek. He could have told him what happened with the Princesses, or at least about the fourth Princess, but instead he let him find out on his own giving Twilight time to attempt to gain control of all the magic she was given. So how much help was he really to Tirek? He helped him grow strong and captured Twilight's friends and that was it. In fact if Discord hadn't helped Tirek, then Twilight wouldn't have gotten her key and would still have no idea what's in the chest, and still have the library. Discord seemed like he was his own side to the conflict, only helping Tirek to get rid of Twilight and her friends but got so used to being friends with Fluttershy that he didn't see that Tirek was planning on turning on him till it was too late.


The reason they’re back in the crystal empire is because that’s where they started in the first movie to tell them about the ceremony but after the ceremony that’s when Sunset stole Twilights crown and that’s where the first equestria girls started.
After they defeat tirek and Twilight gets her castle that’s when she’ll be needed for the rainbow rocks movie
😊


By far the best S4 finale reaction I’ve ever seen. Having a face cam certainly helps, but you’re also just an amazing reactor regardless :)

Personally, I used to rank this as my 3rd-favorite finale of the show, but now I think it very well might be my favorite. The only competition is from the seasons 5 and 9 finales.

Also, when the song crescendos and changes key at 9:00, it gives me major goosebumps every single time. Just incredible.


"how is this happening in a kids show" -someone who hasn't read wings of fire, a "kids" book, which is very violent


the song in the first part is amazing, Cadence voice is so beautiful 😢


I still get chills from this finale.
 The .Mov series is insane be prepared for some crazy shit dude XD
Can't wait to see your reaction to the songs in rainbow rocks they're great.


Hey, PonyBro.
Congrats on making it to the end of season 4, and on to season 5, which I know you will enjoy. Oh and congrats on making 500 subs.
BTW If you're trying to figure out what to do for a 500 sub special, I have a couple of ideas.
The first idea is what you thought, a Q&A video.
The second idea is doing a Halloween special. In fact, I should tell you that there is an episode of season 5 that you should react to for Halloween. The episode is episode 21. It's another episode that involves Nightmare Night, and I thought it'd be a perfect episode for you to react to for a Halloween special since Halloween is around the corner. And since you're on to season 5, it won't have any spoilers for you to be careful about.

I could add that it does NOT HAVE any spoilers (there are a few new interior shots of rooms inside the Castle of Friendship, I guess...)


It's my personal headcanon that Discord knew exactly what the fuck he was doing when he "betrayed" the ponies for Tirek.
He wouldn't just hand them the answer to the box on a silver platter and then not finish the task. That's not Discord. In both his previous appearances he has shown a desire to (or I guess wanted a laugh by?) teaching Twilight a lesson on being a Princess or Friendship.

He orchestrated her Rainbow Moment. It's kinda hard to see otherwise.


Ohh YES, always nice to see a hyped-up reaction to the most EPIC duel in MLP 🤩

I think the Season 4 finale might be the peak of this show. It’s epic, awesome and really fun, and calls back to previous lessons learned throughout the season. I really liked what they did with Discord here, and his gifting Twilight the last key was something I never expected. I only wish he treated her like a friend in future episodes. He quickly goes back to his old ways of tormenting her in just the next season in episodes like What About Discord? and that kinda sucks.


OH! I JUST REMEMBERED! Rainbow Rocks has a bunch of pre-movie shorts that you need to watch!


This episode proves why Twilight is my favorite and best pony!


You are going to reach season 9 in no time flat.

But what then? It wouldn't be good if this channel died as fast as it grew, would it? In this case, rush is not recommended.

@@bonbonpony Why would it have to die?  There's literally TONS of fan content he can still react to, AND he could come p with original stuff for him to do.  Just because the series is over, doesn't mean the fandom goes with it.  :)

@@clearmelody6252  I didn't say it <i>has</i> to die, I'm just saying that many reaction channels ended up that way when the show has come to an end, and some of them even before that, because they were centered around reactions, and it's quite hard to react if there's nothing more to react to :q  So they either had to expand, or they changed into something else (e.g. gaming channels), or disappeared entirely. I just don't want the same happened to this channel too.

Guys, he's already said he's thinking about expanding into anime and other things. Which would be awesome, by the way. This channel isn't going to die just because G4 ended.

David Blau Hell yeah! Anime is awesome. I know, that was my full-on passion before MLP came into my life.


So glad you made it! Keep it up, these reactions are outstanding.


Always loved the "High Altitude Friendship Burst" there at the end.


10:30 "Not the oranges!"
Not a Godfather reference!


Wooooooo I'm catching up with your vids cant wait to watch this one ..

Edit
.....I dont normally edit stuff but this is me after the reaction..and yours was perfect man .also that face paint is a part of your soul now


Before Season 5, you might need to watch Equestria Girls; Rainbow Rocks.


Some fans believe discord knew all the keys and twilight was going to be the hardest one.


I love the aggressive "friendship always prevails" 🤣


BronyBurningAxe Yeah, I’m down for a Q&A.

oh you can hear his videos now? If so, awesome!


4:24 Just smile and wave, Twilight, smile and wave.
26:58 LMAO.


season 5's season premier is my favorite can't wait for your reaction to that!  Also episode 100 is coming up soon too that one will be fun!  Rainbow Rocks is my favorite EQG movie too!  Enjoying the reactions!


I think My top 3 favorite finales are Magic Mystery cute, A Canterlot wedding, and this one


Every finale, i remember that we are closer to the end....feels bad man.


I just noticed you have the exact same headphones that I have


Season 4 was the best season many great songs, great episodes and great storyline


9:01 Damn, I haven't heard this song since the very days when a one Russian channel covered it in full, but cheerful nonsense.

 Chorus of princesses: And you still drink tea and don't finish! While the sun is shining, while the electrician is napping. Pillow-pillow, also take a nap, but drink tea, find time.
 Celestia: Your salary is now one hundred rubles...


39:12-39:14 Why the heck does this remind me of Dan Kuso transporting back home to Bayview in the first episode of Bakugan Mechtanium Surge?


Don't forget Ponies the Anthology 3. You are now definitely cleared for that one.


Am I the only one that noticed the scooter discord rode off on at 14:58  before coming back  was the same scooter from littlest pet shop omg this means discord has been traveling through the  shows through the hasbro world   Which explains why in the pony world scene in equestria girls when pinkie was transforming from her curled up little ball form the transformation noises from transformers we’re playing


congrats, you have just entered the golden age of mlp:fim.  rainbow rocks and season 5 are AMAZING.  cant wait to see your reactions.  (also good on you for hitting 500 subs!)


Ah season 4 finale, the second-favorite season finale of everyone. Everyone disagrees on the BEST season finale, but most say "yeah, season 4? Easily the second-best one." Action, songs, fan pandering, shipping, permanent plot and setting impacts that set up basically the rest of the series. Very solid and important.

The EqG movie "Rainbow Rocks" aired first before the season 5 opener, so I think that should be next?

@@nsk999 Care to explain why? (I'm genuinely curious, not dubious.) Oh, and what's your best then?

It might honestly still be my favourite to this day.

I’ve not yet got to the season finales of S8 or S9 but thus far my finale ranking would be
7. The Cutie Re-Mark
6. Shadow Play
5. Magical Mystery Cure
4. Twilight’s Kingdom
3. The Best Night Ever
2. To Where and Back Again
1. A Canterlot Wedding


Goood. . . .And now it's time for you to meet my number one favorite pony outside the Mane Six!  Hehehehahahahaaha!  YES!


Tirek... Using Discord until he became more stable; Better to have HIM on his side than against him. And then when he finally could, having EVERYTHING in HIS corner, used that ignorance and completely dominated him.

And Discord, feeling that sting of betrayal of someone he thought truly cared... realized the importance of those who were actually always there for him.


3:27 "Why the long face?" is ironic because.......*THEY ARE PONIES!!!*


Now, if you're interested, you can watch the Turnabout Storm sequel, Elements of Justice. There is only one episode out as of right now, but others are on their way.


Aw man. I was hoping for a classic PonyBro Bloomberg end scene. Something along the lines of "Why the fuck doesn't Bloomberg have his throne!?!?"


well, if im being completely honest, they where kinda being total jerks to discord throught the entire season


My mom: You can’t watch mlp it’s for little girls you have to watch boy shows like Phineas and ferb.

My little pony:


Gotta love that Princess song. ^^ <br>All an all a pretty fun finale.

Gotta love that Princess song. ^^
All an all a pretty fun finale.


23:58 We must rid ourselves of our magic before Tirek has the chance to steal it from us.


Did anyone notice that the moped shown there was Blythe's moped from Littlest Pet Shop.


39:13
Don't say things like that. Your psychic abilities are gonna make it come true.


I can't believe you haven't notice Discord in Fluttershy's home in the intro.


If you wanna see Triek's backstory before he came to Equestria you should read the #idw comics, issue 2


30:54 "You just got doxed, Twilight."
Now Rarity's gonna see firsthoof that being mobbed by strangers everywhere you go isn't the glamorous thing she thinks it is.  :)


Not gonna lie, season four was my favorite


Hi! Glad to see you are doing ok.
I have an idea for a Reaction Video:
The "Top [BLANK] in foreign versions of MLP" series.
There are 3 sets of them:
1- "Top Fails in foreign versions of MLP" Volumes 1-6. (Some of these fails will make you laught, and some of them will make you want to shoot yourself).
2- "Top Voices in foreign versions of MLP" Seasons 1-3.
3- "Top Songs in foreign versions of MLP" Seasons 1-3.


The last Season 4 Episode is so action packed


40:15 - The Second Harmonic Rainbowgence (Sonic Rainboom)


great reactions. The S4 finale is a personal favorite of mine. So do you think you will be getting to Scootertrix anytime soon? After Rainbow Rocks is a good time to start it.<br>Also another fan series to consider is The My Little Pony Meets series by Toucan LDM. Its basically random characters like Batman, Superman, Elsa and Anna winding up in Ponyville and meeting some of the characters.

Digital Adventurer I will get to all of these things in due time, don’t you worry! I just tend to put official show content as my priority so eventually I will get to all of this lol, I’ll go as fast as possible!


This was a great finale, but I'd rate it #4 if you include all 9 finales, so I think there's plenty more awesomeness to come.


Around 28:35
She made a trail like rainbow dash did


On the point of Discord, I need to point out a bit of my headcanon, wih regards to this episode, and the future.  He IS a Trickster, and Tricksters never do anything directly.  I've always believed that Discord somehow looked into the future and saw what would happen if he joined with Tirek, and knew that, though it wasn't "right", it was the only way for Twilight to unlock the chest.  So, he did what he knew he had to, even though it would hurt his friends.  Simply put, Discord is always acting in the best interests of his friends and Equestria, even when he seems to not be.


after season 4 its the 2nd movie then season 5 then 3rd movie


31:54 If looks could kill, Discord would be a pile of ashes on the ground right now.


I really hope you`ll watch rainbow rocks and pre/post shorts attached to it.


You know what I just realized. The fight between Twilight and Tirek shows that the magic of all the ponies of equestria AND Discord is not more powerful than the 4 princess' magic. They might even be equal. Or maybe it's just Twilight handles the magic better than Tirek. I'm going with a mixture of both, I think.


They turn this Twilight Vs Tirek fight into an anime fight 😂😂 it’s no longer a MLP show 😂


You can cover all of the pre-movie shorts in one video


Doesn't anyone else feel how it's weird in Season 9 that nobody was able to control Discord's chaos magic yet here Tirek just casually takes it?

Its actually not cuz Tirek uses any magic he absorbed to strengthen himself so when he had celestia’s magic that dose mean he can control raising the sun

@@JJ_Approves then they didn't properly explain difference between absorptions


AT first, I was surprised that they had such a DBZ style fight in MLP. But after thinking...it does make a good lesson. No matter what Twilight and Tirek did, their attacks did nothing. Their fight ended in a draw...it was pointless. Victory came when Twilight stopped fighting, and helped her friends escape. They were then able to win, with their friendship. Lesson: Fighting and violence, isn't the answer...friendship is.


20:07 - eeeyeah, that was the writers' subtle way of saying "yeah, even WE know that episode was shit." LOL

Probably the only episode where you didn't do a prediction. I'm wondering what you'd say 🤔


im ready to relax and watch the season 4 finale those dont go together or is it just me?


Now in s5 premiere you re going to meet one of my favourite characters


I still cant look at the castle and not see a giant middle finger,i mean,im not quite suprised,but once i noticed it,i cant unsee it


I want to have so much magic like Tirek had.

@@winter2716 I want to rule the world, to rule the world you need people and people need to adore you and so people could adore you, you need to prove them that you are trust-worthy so I would use it to make the world look better.

04:00 Yup, that's him, in his pony person :q
04:21 Yeah, all the Princesses were inviting the dick-nitaries in person, except Twilight who was doing it from far above, with a banner. I mean, come on! Flash Sentry could have unrolled the banner! Even Twilight could do it remotely with her levitation magic, while standing among the Princesses! But nope, you're a "baby Princess", Twilight :q
04:37 :D
06:14 No, no, no, Cadence. That's her head.
06:61 Yup, and what a song! One of my top favourite :>
07:32 You HAD a perfect purpose before they made you a Princess :q Your purpose was to study the Magic of Friendship and become the greatest Unicorn magician in Equestria one day.
07:55 When Celestia is singing, you know something big is coming :J  And when all the Princesses are singing.... ;J
08:56 Moment for the animators: a full 360° head spin for reference ;>
10:20 Yup :> That's why they told you to watch it before this finale ;> So that you know who Tirek is ;>
10:50 Because you were spying on her sister in her dreams, and sneaking around behind that door? ;>
11:18 But Scorpan became a brony, and his brother Tirek thought that's gay and became a brony hater :J
11:43 Remember that episode in which Cerberus was running free around Ponyville? ;> ("It's About Time")  That was then.
12:08 Discord is the best Princess :)
13:41 Subtle foreshadowing...
14:28 Probably yes, but only when it's funny :J
15:50 What r u doin AJ? :D
16:06 "Maybe it's in our Friendship Journal that Discord pointed out?..  Naah, it can't be! Discord can't be smarter than me!... Ehh... OK, let's just see what's the big idea, whatever..." :q
17:20 But in a way, he's right. All the mane six (except Fluttershy) were using "friendship" to keep Discord in check after they relinquished the Elements. But if you watch them closely, there was no honest friendship between them. They treated Discord as another nuisance they have to deal with, especially Twilight.
20:00 Yup, it was all a big trial to see if they're worth their Elements and whether they still represent them well enough :>
22:11 Nothing. It's a letter  It can't talk. :J    (sorry, I had to ;J )
23:24 Well, Earth Ponies don't have horns, so they can't control their magic as precisely as Unicorns, but they do have magic too: the magic that makes them stronger and that allows them to grow plants faster and make food.
23:53 Yup, preferably child sacrifice :>  ...   Naah, just kidding ;)  ...  OR AM I?!  ]:>

25:00 What's with that Celestia interrupting Twilight every time she's trying to be heroic? ;q
25:10 That's the point. They would lose their magic to Tirek anyway, which would make him even stronger. So if they're gonna lose their magic anyway, it's better to lose it to somepony who will keep it for them for later, somewhere Tirek wouldn't find it. It's not giving up, or suicidal, it's a pretty good strategy. Well except a couple minor flaws I'll mention later...
25:38 "It's too big!" :q
27:17 I love what they did with his voice, and how it changes depending on Tirek's size. It adds to the realism.
27:37 Well, definitely not with magic :q  Unicorns' biggest mistake is to attack him immediately with their magic – the very thing he feeds on :q
28:07 That trollface ;)
30:37 Yeah, ooopsieee! :q  The Princesses should have seen this coming, and cover up that stained glass. This totally gives out their plan :q
31:05 Yeah, I still don't know how they did it. This effect looks amazing.
31:50 You're not thinking four-dimensionally, Discord. There's some things that Fluttershy could have offered you one day that Tirek definitely cannot ;J
32:44 You know, for kids! :D  So that's how Chaos magic looks like :q

This to me was when they near perfected the show in terms of writing, villains, storylines, visuals and development. The ones after this season the show was not that great Imo.


Tirek was more powerful and danger in season 4 than season 9 and probably Grogar's magic is so powerful. I don't think so. Tirek was better in season 4.


In my opinion, seasons 5 and 9 are the best in the show's history.

Season 9 was a total train wreck with some gems in it here and there…. how in the world do you consider season 9 as one of the best?

@@valkyria20chronicles

It's called "a difference of opinion".

SPOILERS

I thought the writing was far more mature than the earlier seasons, particularly compared to the first two seasons (granted, I believe that's true of seasons 5-8 as well, but still), the stakes felt much higher, it had the most well-integrated season-long plot the show had ever done, the villains were portrayed far more multi-dimensionally than they had been in the past, it had one of the best season ending two-parters ever, it had several of the shows best episodes (Frenemies, Student Counsel, She Talks to Angel, Dragon Dropped, The Big Mac Question), and it wrapped up several plot threads from the show's past rather well.

The only real knocks against it was the opening two-parter was merely fine rather than great, there were a couple clunkers in the middle of the season, and the plot of the epilogue was rather predictable, although I still enjoyed seeing how everyone ended up.

@@Charmolution SPOILERS

Lets see here:
1.Celestia and Luna decides to retire in their version of the early 30`s, if even that. Not awkward at all...

2. Twilight, the one adult princess with ZERO experience in actually ruling anything is the "obvious choice" to rule everything. That does not even have a toe within the realm of sanity and makes the set up forced to say the least.

3. Basically turning Sombra into a different person from what`s been established as well as conveniently  forgetting that both Cadance and Shining Armor has SHIELD SPELLS among other problems when he attacks the Crystal Empire.

4. Teasing us with Grogar before ultimately not giving him to us at all.

5. Taking really emotional moments from the past and making them null and void.

6. Dragon Dropped takes the Spike and Rarity relationship and throws it out the fucking window even though the show has been paving the road for them to get together.

7. All the wasted potential. An example: in the final episodes, Pinkie Pie, the 4th wall breaking character that created the phrase "Its Pinkie Pie, dont question it...." , gets Discord`s magic for a moment. What do we get from that ? A damn CUPCAKE . That just one of many examples.

8. The showdown between Starlight and Chrysalis, which had been built up since the end of season 6 , turns into a cat and mouse chase that lasts for less than a minute .

9. Spikes and Twilight`s mutations in the final episode aside, Twilight is going to outlive her friends. Oh sorry, i thought the writers had confirmed from before that that was <b>not</b> going to happen.<br><br>That`s just some of the problems in a  nutshell.

We are talking about a show that became a cultural phenomenon and i have literally stumbled across PORN better written than this "final season"….i think its pretty fair of me to question if people are in denial….

So, believe it or not, you are not the center of the universe, nor are your views the word of God.  If someone says they don't want to argue, it doesn't mean they have no arguments, it means, and this may shock you:  They have better things to do than get into an argument on YouTube.

And it doesn't matter how strongly you believe that your opinion is the only one that matters, it doesn't change the reality that sometimes, people are going to like things that you don't.  And if they do, it's not because there's something wrong with them.  If you can't accept that, then don't bother replying, because there is no reason to continue this conversation otherwise.

@@Charmolution You are avoiding to talk about the stuff i pointed out. I literally developed problems with alcohol in 2015, feeling useless in giving back to the fandom. A hellhole i am just now getting back out from. And here you are, avoiding the problems i have pointed out and excuse it by calling it "difference of opinion". Are you fucking serious? If you actually have counter arguments, show me the damn respect of bringing them, asshole.

The day my little pony met dragon ball z. Now you can react to equestria girls 2 (Rainbow rocks) and its shorts, and then season 5 premier. Anyway, I would say seasons 5, 7 and 9 are better than seasons 4 and 2.


If you had known when you made this, that you would eventually end up with 4.9k subscribers.


As cool as this episode is as a climax to a season I can’t help being frustrated with just how contrived a lot of it feels.
With Discord it feels like his intelligence was dropped significantly so they could put in the plot point of his betrayal, but it feels very rushed. Then the whole “give all our abilities to Twilight” just makes no sense to me. Why put all your power into one person instead of fighting Tirek as a group? Why did they think that Tirek wouldn’t find out about Twilight’s existence when they have a stained glass window right next to where the other princesses are, and aside from that, they already know that Discord is working with Tirek who obviously knows Twilight. Where is the logic here?
It feels like the writers wanted an excuse to create a huge battle which to be fair is pretty epic, but it feels extremely forced and frustrating to watch leading up to that point.


There's an interesting theory to this finale... that Celestia and Discord orchestrated these events so that Twilight could get her key.

I highly doubt that as it would not serve as the key if Discord was not genuine.

@@valkyria20chronicles Why do you think that? The theory wouldn't prove that he wasn't genuine.

@@Kadeda Because if it was an act then it would not be genuine.

@@valkyria20chronicles Can't him wanting to help Twilight be genuine? Doesn't really matter if it's an act or not if the motivations are genuine.

@@Kadeda Yes. But if that whole scenario had been an act then he would technically be lying.

@@valkyria20chronicles Yeah... It still doesn't mean he wasn't genuine.

@@Kadeda Genuinely wanting to help does not make an act genuine.

@@Kadeda Genuinely wanting to *help* does not make an *act* genuine.

@@valkyria20chronicles That's you deciding that though... for one... we don't know if being genuine has anything to do with it. You can easily say that Celestia knows what it was in the first place. Either way... you're operating the scene to fit your own rules of how you think it worked. Another... it's just a theory.

@@Kadeda Our heroines got their keys from facing a challenge regarding their elements and in the process inspired someone else to do a correct choice. As the season 4 finale pretty much spells out. As such Twilight would not have gotten her key if Discord had not genuinely fucked up and proceeded to get inspired by her and truly embrace friendship.

@@valkyria20chronicles Wow... you really not letting this go. It's a theory. Some believe it, some don't. I'm not gonna keep arguing the same thing over and over again. Believe what you want.

@@Kadeda Excuse me? You`re the one who brought it up. I dont mean to be a jerk but its pretty damn obvious that theory is not correct.

@@valkyria20chronicles Nice opinion. Others have them to...

@@Kadeda Hardly an opinion when the show itself tells it in black and white….

@@valkyria20chronicles Still an opinion... no matter how bad you want it to be fact... for some reason.

@@Kadeda When its officially stated, its not an opinion. You really got bitter about me debunking a theory you liked didn`t you?

@@valkyria20chronicles What was officially stated? It's your opinion. You seem to think your word is law. Also... you didn't debunk anything... you mention genuine... that's all. There's a ton of ways this could unfold.

@@Kadeda This is what we call "denial" .

@@valkyria20chronicles If you're stating that then were done here.


Why did they send Tirek back to tarterus instead of killing him didn't he just escape from there? they actually killed the storm king in the movie and he was just a diet Tirek how could they not have known not killing him would come back to bite them which it does in season 9. when he teams up with Cozy Glow Sombra and chrysalis, and tries to kill them. besides as they show in the movie when the storm king dies death is not off limits; and also in season 6 no second prances when Trixie tries to kill herself even suicide is not off limits so death is not the reason they didn't kill him.death is after all a necessary topic to discuss especially among kids this shows alleged audience as long as it's done in a smart way  remember sesame street did it that 'the kind of thing that made that program so beloved and this show is obviously far more mature and smarter than that..

He escaped because Cerberus left his post at the gates, i guess they assumed that wouldn't be happening again ?

@@beanwife427 Still he escaped once, why would they assume that couldn't happen again and it does when he teams up with those 2 the point is it letting him live  comes back to bite them.

@@adamcheck4941 it is a kids show after all, indefinite imprisonment is probably the best they could do with Hasbro's limitations

@@beanwife427 Using the it's just  a kids show excuse is a bad reason for doing something stupid and as is shown in mlp the move from 2017 and no second prances from season 6 death, even suicide  is not off limits.

@@adamcheck4941 this episode is years old now, the show itself is over, i don't think it matters. the plot was progressed with his second escape, the villain team-up was cool so idc about the poorly thought out causation 💀

@@beanwife427 Of course it technically never mattered but that's no excuse for making a big mistake like that and teaching a horrible lesson that someone whom is evil and tries  to destroy the world should be kept alive to maybe do it again. and though the show is over I would rather re-watch it on you tube than watch the to immature even for children pony life which replaced it, and did the same thing teen titans go did to teen titans..


It's a real minority opinion but I do not care for this finale at all. I can't get over the plothole of the princesses not considering that Discord can tell Tirek about Twilight - and I don't and never will buy that Discord was manipulating him the whole time. Beyond that, until a ways into the second episode Tirek is just said to be wrecking havok all over Equestria, but nowhere near enough of it is shown, making him not feel like a threat until the last minute and robbing the episode of any sort of feeling of danger - a prime example of "show, don't tell", and maybe "but if you tell, at least set the mood". The rainbow power forms are completely hideous and a stupid resolution to an already kind of stupid season-long story arc of the chest. I don't even like the song because of how blatantly Luna repeats her "more/soar" rhyme twice in a row, not to mention the repeated chorus with the exact same animation. The fight scene, Discord's initial interaction with Tirek, Twilight struggling to contain the alicorns' magic and the raw emotion in Fluttershy caused by Discord's betrayal are the only aspects of this finale I like.

But this, in my opinion, is the turning point after which the show starts finally exhibiting its true potential. For me, the first two seasons are a naive and simplistic introduction, the third and fourth are a really awkward puberty, and five + are the real meat of the show. Before season 5 came and smashed all my expectations, I was much more into Equestria Girls than the main show at this point, what with Rainbow Rocks being unexpectedly amazing. I guess all that this means is I can't be more looking forward to you getting to that movie (as well as the two after it) and the fifth season. (And all the other seasons too, naturally.)

I myself am in the minority for not getting too excited about the fight scene. It was nice on the first watch, but after that (because I'm not that much into action nowadays but more into characters and slice-of-life) it just felt like a dry fight scene. In comparison to such fight scenes in the show like the one in season 2 finale: when some sillinies or funny badass moments are balanced better with the seriousness of the situation. I think such kinds of action sequences work best for this pony show. :)

Yeah, while I enjoy the scene, it's nearly not as much as many people seem to. I myself am not really into action at all, kind of like you, though I prefer adventure and world lore to characters and slice of life, but the latter two are good as well. This one was certainly a novelty at the time, but you're totally correct about the changeling battle being better overall, IMO. The Tirek fight feels a little tryhard, while nothing interesting actually happens during it and it's just kind of a playground action figure pretend play attack exchange. But then again a lot of superhero-esque or anime-esque action scenes feel like that to me...

Oh, I like adventure and lore just fine, a good mix of slice of life and adventure is good for me in any show :)

This is Not any bro to a pony, except derpy I guess's channel Imao


When anyone tells me MLP is just for little girls i show then that fight scene and even if they don't become a fan at least they don't talk it down anymore.


The screan is way to small that I can't see it that much'


Watch the pre rainbow rocks shorts before you watch the movie please


when i first watched season 1 mlp was just boring like other girly stuff but when i watched season 3 and season 2 finale i was like "wow this is awesome"


I love this finale but I do NOT like those transformation designs.


Watch mlp animation "FluttERR MLH"
 <br>You will not regret xD

Watch bronies react by acracebest  my suggestion


#brony but I is a girl but I hate my little pony but I only like apple jack and cozy glow and I whatch the movie :)


You have said many times that you would react to the "Bronies react" series, but like Phoenix Wright you keep putting it off for future. What future are we waiting for exactly? You put it of every time that people have started thinking it won't happen and they have stopped asking for it even if they had many times in the past.. :(

Let him get to it in his own time and pace.  He can't react to everything at once, as he has a life outside of this channel.  Have patience and he'll get to it.

@@clearmelody6252 The thing is he just asked us what do we think he should react to next and this one was requested for quite a while by various people in the comments before. I'm just reminding him that since he himself asked in this video!

Kathera Lockharte I’m sorry I haven’t gotten to it yet, it will be in the next fan mashup vid I do!

@@ponybroiguess384 I really hope it is tho that might work for the first few the later ones are even longer then the episode itself. I guess we will see then! :)


Celestia planned ALL with Discord. You cannot change my mind


Man, I like your nonsexual jokes!<br>And sexual a little bit to, but not too much.

To be fair, they treated Discord like shit. So when it comes to him turning his back on them, they were basically bending over and asking for it rough.....

Now that you've finished watching season 4 and you have it fresh in your mind, you could react to "My Kingdom For a Horse (MLP S4 Tribute)" by marshmallowok. It's a compilation of jokes similar in style to the Ponies the Anthology series, except it's focused on season 4 specifically and it's only 32 minutes long.
