Hello would you like to collab with me? I make custom professional mlp figurines. I love your channel and would be wery happy to be able to colab with you and make a figurine together 😍
Noooo, I like the multiple parts videos for season 😢 Is ok if take more time waiting, but please don't make a 9h video (neither the multiple videos, for I seen, you though deep and reduce that into 30 min videos feel kinda wrong) 😅
I think the dragon egg test was supposed to be impossible, and meant to test how the student reacts to failure. When Twilight was able to acomplish the impossible, Celestia was surprised and impressed, so she made Twilight her personal protege.
So your commentary on Spike opens up a bunch of fun stuff! I personally think the writers just didn't think they'd ever have to explain the spike egg plot in the future. BUT building off your head cannon here's some of my thoughts too! I think either Celestia has a secret, highly trained dragon egg stealing team. Or possibly it's organized crime. Although thinking about how blasé and incompetent the palace guards appear to be, it's highly unlikely it's any of Celestias doing. So I'm gearing towards renegade dragon eggs thieves and Celestia actually buys them off the black market in order to save them from an otherwise rough trafficked life. Maybe ponies don't buy them since they can't hatch them; but other species do. Or it's a sport to try and hatch them but they never do. (Like how humans keep trying to keep sharks in captivity). Which brings up another point though: do dragon eggs die in captivity? Or, need a magic boost to hatch? Perhaps that's why we never saw any others. Maybe twilight was the only one to successfully hatch one with such powerful magic, and all the others either "died" (never hatched), or Celestia returns the eggs to the dragon lands to hatch. I would like to think none of those are true because any scenario is admitting that ponies steal and do bad stuff. Which we DO see some really bad ponies/griffons I guess Dx so I suppose it's cannon. If anything I would prefer NONE of it true and that spike has been the test dragon for hundreds of years and because he's in pony captivity he won't hatch so Celestia is hoping someone can!
I think that continuing in this format of a season being split into several parts of an hour or two long video would be best. I really enjoy this form of long videos, and think that it fits this more than each episode being split into its own video Great video too, keep it up ❤
I was considering it, but I couldn’t fit it into the script without completely disrupting the rhythm/flow of the anti-Elements of Harmony point I was yappin’ about 😭😭
I honestly find it hilarious that Treehouse TV thought that Pinkie saying the word “Loser” in Party of One was bad enough that they muted it yet all that did was make it seem like she was saying something way worse as a result
LOOOOVE the longer video format😍Gives me something exiting to watch while I'm crocheting😌not just background video, but the really interesting one that helps with "blindly crocheting" and just full on focus on the vid
I mean technically the diamond dogs appeared once more....as weird looking humans in Equestria Girls...like weirder than the rest of them weird. They simped for Rarity and lugged around a grand piano in her Rainbow Rocks prelude short before she settled on the Keytar
I appreciate that the season is split up with this retrospective... most retrospectives would just do the entire show at once, or split it up by season, or with multiple seasons per video.
Weirdly random compliment- I’m really bad at processing dialogue from videos/movies/etc. I almost always need subtitles to even follow along at all. And if someone has an accent? Forget it, might as well be friggin gibberish. You are one of the content creators- long form at that- that speaks clearly where I don’t need subtitles. That’s huge for me!!
Something that went underemphasized in the video is how aggressively Braeburn was shipped with literally every single character of the show, since we had no major male characters aside from Spike at that point. He was on fanart in fanfics, even shipped with his relatives.
My thoughts during Green Isn't Your Color: 'Hey! He went through an entire episode featuring Fluttershy without his biased hatred for her showing. Maybe people's comments about him being too harsh against her has changed that going forward? A Bird in The Hoof: (sighs and rolls eyes) 'Spoke too soon....'
@@monsterjambrony Same. Really though, It takes me out of the video whenever the "Flutterbashing" happens. That is not something you want from your viewers
I think it would be better to have the retrospectives in these long, three video sessions. It's better for listening to, means less work for you and the comments being easier to compile, be it for you or a viewer.
These episodes are okay in book F and "I like to be a tree" and "cross my heart and hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye" and Tridashie made an awesome pmv with it
Buffalo: Ponies can live on buffalo land as long as ponies bring us apple pie. Native: White man can live on native land as long as white man bring us fire water.
about mr. mousey’s name, i think it was just a nickname or a term of endearment fluttershy called him, since if mice (and other animals) have a way of talking to her they probably talk amongst their species, so they have names. i have a lot of somewhat dumb nicknames for my cat, i assume fluttershy would have some for the creatures she takes care of aswell.
Being around in the early days (got on the ride in 2011), Mr Enter's reviews were generally... not well regarded by a large chunk of the fanbase, I don't know how much of the reviews were his genuine opinion, but he really comes off as a dude doing the Angry Reviewer Nerd thing that was popular in the late 2000s and early 2010s - think Nostalgia Critic - but without the humour.
yea, like i said in Part 1, i'm just using his thoughts as a bouncing point for when i'm out of ideas and need a quick good laugh at his stuff lol, especially cuz he went through the effort of reviewing every individual episode + it's fun to look back on a youtuber i watched as a kid and cringe a little xd. that said, i'll eventually do a deep dive on all his """"reviews"""" in the future and really dissect how much of his points are valid/jokes/"jokes"/etc..
On one hand, I like being able to just throw on a really long video in the background while I do something else. On the other, I'd also be down for more frequent uploads. Another UA-camr, Thomas Vaccaro, does similar retrospectives/analysis with the Winx series, and they do 2 episodes per video. Maybe splitting each MLP season into chunks of episodes could work? I personally don't mind either way.
Spitfire has a male voice in the Polish version in the episode about the gala, but if I remember correctly, in later episodes, where Rainbow Sadh is already a member of the Wonderbolts, she has a female voice
IM EARLY!!!!! earliest ive ever been to one of his videos :D genuinely happy lol!! I love this series so much and binge watched the first two videos, cant wait for the next one, keep up the good work!!!
42:39 this was most of my complaints with “Where the Apple Lies” in Season 6 too and how they never showed baby Apple Bloom or mention their parents in that episode either
28:12 i at first agreed with the concept that fluttershy might have named this mouse, but then i thought: if fluttershy has the ability to talk to animals, she probably wouldve asked for their already established name that their mother gave to them. Therefore, yes, this is the Mousey family 😭🙏
Man, I really don't remember the episode order as well as I thought I did. I could have sworn the Cutie Mark Chronicles was the penultimate episode that then lead into Best Night Ever.
9:28 actually no, lottus was going to use that in fluttershy hooves, but Fluttershy dont want because she is too delicate and make that face I think it was that because they use that thing in hooves in other episodes Also, i think that even if they go every week, lotus and aloe always think 'maybe this time she will let us do are job complete and thos the minimum version of it'
For Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash missing in the scene of them entering the Diamong Dogs' lair: I looked through my shit and I have a version where Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash actually do lay on the ground behind the other ponies; it actually exists.
1:30:00 I AM 33 and still love MLP 😅 And about Owlowiscious in Polish version It's quite a clever move to make it sound similar to the original version, the name Sowalicja - sowa = owl, Alicja = Alice. And the gender change is a coincidence, the important thing is that it sounds cool and easy to remember
1:20:03 so I actually used to animate in flash a long time ago lol But those are eye masks, usually in flash puppets especially mlp ones I’ve used and seen, there is a color that is the same size as the sclera that is used to mask the pupil and iris so you could move them around in bounds of the eye. ( I’m sure you know this but maybe someone genuinely doesn’t) There seems to be some layering issues with the eye masks which could be a flash error or the animators accidentally changed some of the settings on the eyes. lol so funny to see it though, as it’s usually a hidden layer. Puppets may have changed and evolved since. I used to animate in some old flash puppet resource packs like a decade ago, but I remember seeing masks that looked like that!! I assume they’re the same thing or similar It’s also weird because she’s the wrong color we know that’s spitfire but why is she blue ??? She’s a main side character in this episode that design is unique, that’s so weird!!
49:0749:59 wouldn’t that also apply to Sunset Shimmer because she also went to Celestia’s school before Twilight I’m assuming before abandoning Equestria so theoretically, she should’ve had a baby dragon or in the human world, equivalent a dog of her own from Equestria
I like how this retrospective is in 3 parts but I can't decide if I would rather have one video per episode, because like, why would I want to watch a retrospective on an episode I don't like, because when it is in one piece I am forced to watch all of them
44:27 I have a female friend irl who was often mocked in school for being taller than average girls of her age at that time. And because of that she was really shy and asocial for a little period of her life. I don’t know how tall Lauren Faust is irl but maybe she experienced the same thing in her teen years and decided to project that part of herself into Fluttershy? But that’s just my assumption
5:40 for me, yes, that lesson was accurate and actually teach me taht there is nothing wrong to be a lady At the time i want to be the 'im not like other girls' (i hate me soo much for that now) didn't care about go shopping or use makeup, jewelry or perfumes, i talk more with the boys, etc But, even if i say that I didn't care of girls, im a sucker for girl dresses in cartoons, and rarity make amazing clothes soo she was one of my favorites and when i saw this episode i was like 'yeah, a girl can use manipulation to get away without being less femenine' and i take more note into girls being femenine but also inteligents (something that Disney want to force without thinking)
If Celestia were to put fillamina down would fillamina turn to ash and be reborn? Also i feel like fillamina’s design could’ve been a bit more similar to Phoenix’s body type, like seen in one of the earlier designs. It wouldn’t give it away but it also would make the transformation more sense.
I think the Native allegory episode was problematic because Applejack's relative didn't ask for consent before trying to use the land for his own purposes, and he's not punished for doing so.
It's been quite a ride!

Ha imagine having finals! (Homeschool and live in the Midwest so more time to watch Eff minus)
Real
definitely!!!!
Want the finest? Watch eff minus!
Real
Love how every time Pinkamena is mentioned, a FNAF jumpscare sound plays
Each one is the next jumpscare in the series
it oddly fits with the images, it's pretty funny as well
Dude, this series legit rocks.
thanks!
Trueee
fr, it's so entertaining to watch
I do like how the pinkie promises is basically the safer version of "cross my heart hope to die stick a needle in my eye" promise
I think that continuing in this format of a season being split into several parts of an hour or two long video would be best. I really enjoy this form of long videos, and think that it fits this more than each episode being split into its own video
Great video too, keep it up ❤
8:30 I personally read this title and immediately think of "green is not a creative color."

that sapphire shores mini figure lives rent free in bro’s head 💀💀
Can't believe you didn't mention the "You're Going to LOVE ME" Sparta Remix from the Rage Gala Fluttershy. That one was gold from a bygone era
I was considering it, but I couldn’t fit it into the script without completely disrupting the rhythm/flow of the anti-Elements of Harmony point I was yappin’ about 😭😭
@EffMinus oh! The fact that you were considering it is good enough for me! I don't comment on things often, but keep up the good work fr ✨️
I honestly find it hilarious that Treehouse TV thought that Pinkie saying the word “Loser” in Party of One was bad enough that they muted it yet all that did was make it seem like she was saying something way worse as a result
How did you know that I was bored and needed something to watch right now??!
Well, I take it, thanks.
LOOOOVE the longer video format😍Gives me something exiting to watch while I'm crocheting😌not just background video, but the really interesting one that helps with "blindly crocheting" and just full on focus on the vid
i love this series so much
the series loves you back!
Finally, something good to watch while eating.
32:06 Fun Fact: Pipps real name in G5 is Philomena Petals meaning Pipp is just a nickname
I mean technically the diamond dogs appeared once more....as weird looking humans in Equestria Girls...like weirder than the rest of them weird. They simped for Rarity and lugged around a grand piano in her Rainbow Rocks prelude short before she settled on the Keytar

Honestly I like these longer retrospectives instead of small ones. Just flows better and it's a good 'documentary' to listen to
Can't believe I took a whole day to watch this 😭Just, nobody else can get me this into something and interested lol
yeah, lol
Something that went underemphasized in the video is how aggressively Braeburn was shipped with literally every single character of the show, since we had no major male characters aside from Spike at that point.

I said in Part 2 that the script for the whole season was written before I even filmed Part 1 lol.
I am getting really sick of his Fluttershy hatred too.
@@monsterjambrony Same. Really though, It takes me out of the video whenever the "Flutterbashing" happens. That is not something you want from your viewers
Oh no, how dare he hate a fictional character, he's such a terrible person 😂😂😂
@@monsterjambrony lmao that's stupid. Literally why do you and OP commenter care that much?? 😂
Go to sleep? 👎

I really appreciate your videos! Feels like talking to a friend, together hyperfixating on small things :)

Am I crazy for actually enjoying these continuity errors pointed out?

WOOHOO i always like these mlp retrospectives, hyped for the season 2
Buffalo: Ponies can live on buffalo land as long as ponies bring us apple pie.
Native: White man can live on native land as long as white man bring us fire water.
I love these bigger videos.
3 PARTERS KEEP DOING THE 3 PARTERS
1:17:20 So that's why she's a Diane.. It also fits a "Moon Pie" pun.
about mr. mousey’s name, i think it was just a nickname or a term of endearment fluttershy called him, since if mice (and other animals) have a way of talking to her they probably talk amongst their species, so they have names. i have a lot of somewhat dumb nicknames for my cat, i assume fluttershy would have some for the creatures she takes care of aswell.
You playing a jumpscare sound with that stupid Pinkamena image killed me each time 💀
9:18 I think she was actually offering to file her hooves, not her horn.
this would say the contrary lol mlp.fandom.com/wiki/Spa_ponies#Season_one
AAAAAAAAAA IM SCREAMING THANKUUU SM FOR THIS VIDEO I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!!!!!!
We can’t wait for you to ramble about A Canterlot Wedding lol

Yay you post 🎉 I love your retrospectives and I Hope you will make more
Exactly what I required ❤️💜
You cure my depression and anxiety. Thank you so much ❤️💜
NEW EFF MINUS VIDEO DROPPED LET'S GOOOOOO
I really like the length of the videos and think doing the seasons in 3 parts is a great format!
Honestly any episode that alludes to spike getting over his crush on rarity always eagers me even if it's for a second
On one hand, I like being able to just throw on a really long video in the background while I do something else. On the other, I'd also be down for more frequent uploads. Another UA-camr, Thomas Vaccaro, does similar retrospectives/analysis with the Winx series, and they do 2 episodes per video. Maybe splitting each MLP season into chunks of episodes could work? I personally don't mind either way.
That's exactly what he did.. 3 videos of season 1 episodes, in 3 chunks ...
Spitfire has a male voice in the Polish version in the episode about the gala, but if I remember correctly, in later episodes, where Rainbow Sadh is already a member of the Wonderbolts, she has a female voice
Ready to watch whilst making food after having slept for 13 hours due to my darn flu 🤧
YAY ANOTHER HOUR OF OVERANALYZING PONIES!!
31:25 You can't escape the pinkie gasp
IM EARLY!!!!! earliest ive ever been to one of his videos :D genuinely happy lol!! I love this series so much and binge watched the first two videos, cant wait for the next one, keep up the good work!!!
perfect cant wait to fall asleep to this
I love these videos! I wouldn't mind the videos being longer tbh
Can't wait for Season 2 Analysis❤
42:39 this was most of my complaints with “Where the Apple Lies” in Season 6 too and how they never showed baby Apple Bloom or mention their parents in that episode either
53:47 Don't worry man, your real friends are out there
I like the hour long videos love just binge watching these video's 🖤
You're 21?! We're age peers?! Idk why I'm so shocked I just always forget I'm old 😭
You should talk about Tamers12345 videos, looking at the references to all fandom things, but also be careful if it's not your kind of humour
I LOVE the three part videos
1:26:12 wow fluttershy really wants me to come out.
Yay part three!
OH SHOOT LETS GOOOOOOO NEW UPLOAD
I love this series
28:12 i at first agreed with the concept that fluttershy might have named this mouse, but then i thought: if fluttershy has the ability to talk to animals, she probably wouldve asked for their already established name that their mother gave to them. Therefore, yes, this is the Mousey family 😭🙏

Thank God, I can come back to reality again
YAYYY I LOVE THESE VIDEOS
9:28 actually no, lottus was going to use that in fluttershy hooves, but Fluttershy dont want because she is too delicate and make that face
I think it was that because they use that thing in hooves in other episodes
Also, i think that even if they go every week, lotus and aloe always think 'maybe this time she will let us do are job complete and thos the minimum version of it'

Yes MORE EFF MINUS
8:55 Aloe has the pink body and Lotus has the blue body lol. It’s easy to get confused bc they are the same colors lol.
YAY ITS OUT!!!
there is 41 pages to that comic i found but now i know where the luna pucking come from
1:30:00
I AM 33 and still love MLP 😅
And about Owlowiscious in Polish version It's quite a clever move to make it sound similar to the original version, the name Sowalicja - sowa = owl, Alicja = Alice. And the gender change is a coincidence, the important thing is that it sounds cool and easy to remember
PLEASE do read it and weep!!!!!!! its my FAVORITE episode!!!!!!!!!!!
1:03:47 *cough* Starlight broke this trend with how OP she is *cough* 😂
Hello Effistopher. We're so bsck
1:20:03 so I actually used to animate in flash a long time ago lol

Puppets may have changed and evolved since. I used to animate in some old flash puppet resource packs like a decade ago, but I remember seeing masks that looked like that!! I assume they’re the same thing or similar
It’s also weird because she’s the wrong color we know that’s spitfire but why is she blue ???

EFF MINUS POSTED!!!!!!!!
44:27 I have a female friend irl who was often mocked in school for being taller than average girls of her age at that time. And because of that she was really shy and asocial for a little period of her life. I don’t know how tall Lauren Faust is irl but maybe she experienced the same thing in her teen years and decided to project that part of herself into Fluttershy?
But that’s just my assumption
5:40 for me, yes, that lesson was accurate and actually teach me taht there is nothing wrong to be a lady
At the time i want to be the 'im not like other girls' (i hate me soo much for that now) didn't care about go shopping or use makeup, jewelry or perfumes, i talk more with the boys, etc
But, even if i say that I didn't care of girls, im a sucker for girl dresses in cartoons, and rarity make amazing clothes soo she was one of my favorites and when i saw this episode i was like 'yeah, a girl can use manipulation to get away without being less femenine' and i take more note into girls being femenine but also inteligents (something that Disney want to force without thinking)
Me: life you suck
eff minus posts*
Me: perhaps I treated you to harshly
If Celestia were to put fillamina down would fillamina turn to ash and be reborn? Also i feel like fillamina’s design could’ve been a bit more similar to Phoenix’s body type, like seen in one of the earlier designs. It wouldn’t give it away but it also would make the transformation more sense.
that is such a cursed question LOL
@ Does the phoenix ever die? Like could she put it through a loop? Or does it only revive if it dies naturally and not from a cause???
18:06 you’d be surprised what DOES exist in this fandom just don’t go down that road….😂
I like this format but im sad its only breef thoughts
I wanna hear your in depth thoughts
Also happy late bday, i also celebrated 20 about a month ago
Cupcakes! Pinkie was supposed to be normal Pinkie. I don’t think the crew even knew about Cupcakes before Party Of One was made
I will not stand with this fluttershy hate (by the way love your vid)
I think the Native allegory episode was problematic because Applejack's relative didn't ask for consent before trying to use the land for his own purposes, and he's not punished for doing so.
I wish I heard all the thoughts instead of just the skimming
