for me the charictors are lively and very relatabel,simple but also have a lot of depth.

Well said ShelDawG. This is one of the main reasons why I like the show and you nailed it.

For me it was the animation I liked the most. It really reminded me of good childhood cartoons, where personality and animation were on the first place. When I saw FiM for the first time I thought how lame is this little kid cartoon with all those colorful ponies. Then I saw some YTP videos from Dikekike and noticed the appealing animation and face expressions so I gave it a try and since then I am hooked up to MLP.

While I love the visual art style, I'd really love to see a version of the show with a Disney-like style having fully hand drawn animation.

Well, THAT would explain why I find most OCs color schemes "different" from the show, I'm assuming most people probably don't think about color theory before making them.

Seanfrtd I simply Google searched terms like "Color theory", watched some videos on the subject, and found some images. I couldn't tell you specifically where most of the pictures in this video came from. I was also stoned out of my mind while editing the video, which makes it even more difficult for me to remember lol, sorry bro.

+Belinda Cantu Zecora is almost black and white, but her "white" is actually very light grey. Also, her stripes don't go to her stomach like a real zebra.
Thunder lane is the closest to white and black.

They´re all pastel tones. They´re meant to be for little girls. Color harmony explains. it all. That´s why I keep man color schemes handy when drawing. It´s not rocket science.

Yenastuundepaspris55 I don't understand. When the picture flashes, I basically say in the video "If I don't like how a show looks, I won't like it" and use the example of the Steven Universe picture. Basically what I'm saying is, I don't like how Steven Universe looks aesthetically, thus I don't like it.

This doesn't mean Steven Universe is a bad show, it means I don't like it, mostly becuase of how the visual design elements make me feel. It's a me thing.

We both realize that all of this is meaningless.
It's meaningless to continue writing to each other, to be writing at all, but we still do it.

Nothing matters. But, we still continue on this dance. Entertainment, hoping to forget that we don't care.

Well, I do wonder what will come next. I do feel a bit interested.

You don't critique Shakespeare any different than you would critique any other kind of story, it's just fucking storytelling. How "complex" or whatever a story is doesn't matter. Professional adults hired to tell these stories write them, they obviously give a fuck and clearly put a degree of fun and effort into it. Just because something is more simple, doesn't mean adults can't enjoy it either, that's like saying "Adults can't like pop music because it's too simple, they can only like fusion or bop music". That doesn't make any sense. Jump off a bridge you dumb aspie.
