sgatazmyOkay, I know, another My Little Pony post. Sorry! But really, there is so much to talk about and I don't know where else to say this. Thanks for reading some!
In this post, a few notes on why I like My Little Pony and then I link to some amazing fan creations as well:
My Little Pony is unique in that it appeals across the age and gender spectrum. I looked it up and found that the moment most adults start liking the series is the same moment I started liking it as well! Apparently the song Winter Wrap Up was an experiment Daniel Ingram did to convince Hasbro what could be done with the show. The video for Winter Wrap Up is here and I think it gives a good idea of what people like about this show: music, well-written characters, a world with so much background that it becomes almost real. So if you are interested in what I like about this show, check out this video of their first big song.
I haven't found much fanfic I like, but some of the fanvids are nothing short of amazing. I haven't seen anything like them in any other fandom I've been in. Instead of taking clips from episodes, these animate the entire video as well. Some of it is such great quality I almost thought it was from the show! These vids are worth watching just because the music is amazing and the animation is brilliant. I think they will be great even if you don't know My Little Pony.
The Moon Rises is by Duo Cartoonist and shows 1000 years ago when Princess Luna fell and became the dark villain Nightmare Moon. I can't get over how good this video is.
Lullaby For a Princess shows Princess Celestia banishing her sister, Princess Luna, to the moon. Amazing! Fits the lore of the series perfectly. (The series actually starts with the end of her banishment so it's great to see what happened thousand of years ago)
Children of the Night My kids ask me to play this all the time. It's Princess Luna taking care of a lot of the kids on the street and rising them up to the moon with her. (This is also by Duo Cartoonist who I think has some Steven Universe vids as well I need to watch!)
Another video that is amazing is My Little Dashie which takes place in the real world when Rainbow Dash somehow ends up as a filly stuck in our world. It's really well done and my daughter cried so much watching this. I think it also sums up why so many adults like this show.
Oh, my icon by the way is a picture by my daughter from her book, Fina's Jumping Kitten.
It's a cat using a stool to get in the fridge.
