This is the definition of "Babe wake up a UA-camr I have never heard of just dropped an hours long video essay on something I haven't thought of in years"
38:34 In Starlight the Hypnotist, its revealed that Twilight Sparkle is afraid of Ladybugs! Coccinelledaephobia. She's been pretty ok around them in the past, but Fluttershy seemed to trigger the fear again because of a School of Friendship project. Twilight says that Shining Armor said that the spots are "Extra eyes, that watch you wherever you go." This actually seems highly relevant, suggesting that ladybugs have, or have ties to an entity with, the ability to see between dimensions in FiM canon. Perhaps its Discord? He jas those beady red eyes... Or perhaps its something else?
the whole "why did the sirens only show up now" thing i think can be explained by them having been asleep for a long time. hence why adagio is more knowledgeable about the world, why aria says "go back to sleep, sonata," at one point, why sonata is so clueless, AND why it seems like adagio got to the human world at a different time. maybe they were all put to Magical Sleep, but because it's been such a long time since starswirl banished them, the spell has grown weaker over time, which could be why they awoke one after another. idk. i'm only forty minutes in tho so you might mention this
finally, someone who actually knew what i was actually asking instead of braindeadly commenting "durr they came to CHS because Sunset's magic" as if that was what i was confused about. thanks.
Back when I saw this movie for the first time, and the dazzlings saw the GIANT RAINBOW TORNADO from the end of the first movie and no one else seemed to react to it, for some reason I got it into my head that no one else could see the rainbow tornado but the dazzlings could cause they had some equestrian magic. I also thought that the negative energy green gas could only be seen by people with equestrian magic as well. Honestly, I have no idea why I thought this and I don’t know if there is anything in the movies that debunk my theory, but maybe it could explain why no one else reacts to the obvious magical occurrences that are happing around them. This still wouldn’t explain how Canterlot High hid all the insane damage caused by Sunsets Shimmers little “boo-boo” ( as said by Rarity ) This video is awesome and I can’t even imagine the amount of work it took to make it. This is the first time I’ve seen your channel but I’m definitely gonna check out your other videos. ( also it’s so great to finally see someone else talk about how great Sunset Shimmer is lol. )
that’s a neat interpretation! there are some bits and crumbs that may be taken to imply that, but honestly let’s just blame the movie for not making it clear enough lol.
Same. I always wrote it down to the fog being just a visual sign to the viewer, because otherwise it'd look weird or to magic working like stands in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, where only stand users could see other stands.
The "Friendship iiiiis MAGIIIIC!" scene gives me psychic damage every time like I love this movie but I legit have to stand up and walk away when that scene plays IT'S SO EMBARRASSING
1:00:27 If you play the clip for legit 5 more seconds, you'll see that it was actually Vinyl who opened the door, Spike just pushed it. Dogs CAN push doors open as long as they are not shut tightly
Here’s a theory: The novelization says the people at the café were listening to an album by the Sonic Rainbooms, but Rainbow Dash hadn’t formed her band yet in the chronology. Well, the band in Rainbow Rocks isn’t called the Sonic Rainbooms, rather it’s just called the Rainbooms. Perhaps the Sonic Rainbooms are a professional band that Rainbow Dash likes so much that she named her band after them and called it the Rainbooms.
59:35 I wouldn't say Twi is being egotistical. She doesn't think she should have all the answers because she thinks so highly of herself, she says that because she feels like that's what the human mane 6 expect of her. Sunset wrote to her first when she didn't know what to do about the sirens, and the last time Twi was there, she succeeded in saving the day. So she probably feels like they expect her to know just what to do and like she said in the scene at Pinkie's house, the last thing she wants to do is let everybody down.
14:27 I’m fairly sure the joke is, as you mentioned earlier, rainbow dash says she has a sense for it, despite it going over her head the whole short, thus the joke is largely the irony surrounding her words.
R.I.P. all that hard work gone. At least it's back. What happened with UA-cam? Back then we could watch and react to MLP content without any copyright problems! There's someome on UA-cam who have ALL 9 seasons of MLP: FIM on their UA-cam channel back in 2019!💀
Roughly 5:00. The reason why she knows that is a equestrian magic is, what else could it be? The Dazzlings have been in this world long enough to know that it doesn’t have magic normally. So if they see magic, it’s likely equestrian magic because how else does this world have magic? it would be more of a stretch to say it came from a different source. I believe the reason why the clarification necessary is because she was just trying to emphasize it. This is it just magic. This is magic from their home world. I know that’s apparent, but it means so much power and possibly a way back home. she’s spelling it out.
All of the Equestria Girls movies were honestly pretty decent in my opinion! I can imagine they did well, and Hasbro probably knows this... which scares me. Imagine they made some sort of an Equestria Girls spinoff for G5. (though I don't want to give them any ideas lol)
i mean, considering EG existed purely because of the sucess of fashion dolls in the 2010s (as much as i love EG i have to admit that), the spiritual sucessor to that wouldn't be also another line of fashion dolls, but whatever is doing well in the toy market at the moment and hasbro wants to shoehorn into the mlp franchise. (mlp slime.. no) that one trendy thing might still be fashion dolls, just different ones, so idk!
I never knew about that post credit scene thingy at the end, i thought the other twilight sparkle was created outta nowhere for an excuse for the sequel
The Ladybug theory Ive seen is that they represent change or transformation, and to viewers story progression as they usually pop up during important moments or character reveals. Sorta a branch off of the butterfly effect
i just want to say my personal head cannon of why spike is a dog. in the original show, spike plays the role of not only an assistant, but also emotional support. twilight NEEDS him to function. he is shown several times throughout the show telling twilight to sleep, take a break, eat, and we can assume other basic self-care tasks. the role spike plays is *almost* that of a caretaker, except twilight actually plays that role. spike was raised by her, and is definitely considered family. however, there are multiple references implying that spike does not see her as his mother. she is a guardian. she provides food, shelter, love, care, etc for spike. and in return, he provides love, care, and special tasks. this is very similar to the role a service dog plays, which we can infer from the real human twilight is real dog spike's role. service dogs perform special tasks for their owners' specific needs. they can bring meds, drinks, alert other people for help, provide deep pressure therapy, use grounding techniques, alert owner of danger, etc. spike as a dragon can easily be seen as able to perform this tasks. service dogs are not pets, they are an essential tool for everyday functioning. twilight makes multiple points to tell spike how much she appreciates him and can't function as well without him. service dogs also aren't always working. and spike gets breaks too. twilight shows some autistic traits, some of which could also be interpreted as anxiety. she hyperfixates on multiple things multiple times in the show. she can go long stretches so immersed in whatever it is she's doing that she won't even sleep. she also had trouble socializing for a lot of her life, it taking a long time for her to willingly and enthusiastically interact with people. she needs to be reminded to take care of herself. she has a lot of niche interests she cares and knows very much about, and loves to infodump to anyone who will listen. she also had an entire episode dedicated to how she felt so strongly the need to be included when everyone had fun with discord the previous days without her. autistic people often feel like outcasts, and rejects by their friends. twilight does have insecurities about this. she feels like if she could just know all of the possible context, there's nothing she could be left out of. she is shown to have a lot of black and white thinking like this. she sometimes struggles with expressing her emotions, bottling them up at times only to lead to a meltdown later. spike does help with all of these things, being her most reliable source of comfort and assistance throughout the show. it's also important to note that twilight does consider spike as family and herself as his guardian, but she never calls him her son. she does often call him, lovingly, her #1 assistant. my other justification for this is, we can assume that maybe the portal changes you into the creature whose intelligence you most closely match. spike is a baby dragon, but unlike a human baby he can walk, talk, be left on his own, and perform complex tasks. a service dog, by the time they are completely trained, also has the ability to perform complex tasks and be trusted to make their own decisions. both of them can also think about decisions they make and make an assumption about the best course of action in many situations. and this is something to think about when we see how real dog spike talks to twilight when he can finally speak. he doesn't treat her very different from the way dragon spike treats pony twilight. i think that because spike's role more easily translates to "service dog" vs "awkwardly smart toddler" or randomly changing his age uncomfortably up, it was probably the best solution. this can also explain why the sirens look like teenagers. they are permantely unable to grow up, with incredibly juvenile desires, values, and reasoning. the explanation for twilight being a teenager could be that because she is a horse, her intelligence is very smart in her world, but underdeveloped in the human world. the ponies have magic, but could otherwise be considered as in their early modern era, while the humans are in the modern era. two teenagers from separate eras have completely different types of knowledge. a teenager in one era likely had more access to knowledge than a teenager in the era before. by comparison, making one sort of like "elementary" intellect and the other have more "advanced" information. this could also be why the cutie mark crusaders are aged up, their maturity being above their pony age and closer to just a slightly older human child's. if we just ignore the diamond dogs (as we should) this explanation makes the most sense to me
I looooove this idea!! Super support it. Basically canon to me now :) And maybe the diamond dogs are just as mature as immature adults. I guarantee there are people like them so who knows! But I’m also content to go back to forgetting they ever showed up in show or movie form.
I think one of the things that I like about this movie is probably the music, especially Welcome To The Show. It's my second favourite MLP song that just ties in with One Small Thing from the 2017 movie.
I randomly found the original the other day and watched it, had a great time, watched another the next day and then was confused when i went to your channel and saw this had been uploaded 2 hours ago and thought my laptop was just acting up again, I didn't realize it was a reupload! Sorry your vid got taken down, it's amazing!
The reason they’re only resurfacing now could be that they didn’t feel any strong equestrian magic until the start of the movie, that would’ve been fine ig.
Here in Latin America, there was also a live show based on Rainbow Rocks. Well, based on both that and the first Equestria Girls movie to be exact; i.e. it's about Sunset going up for Fall Formal Princess and the Dazzlings trying to stop that. It's here in UA-cam as "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: El Show En Vivo".
@@ploppledoodledoo17 the whole show, the movies, and the specials are ALL on youtube and it has been for years, im fully convinced they did this for no reason (love ur kyle icon btw)
5:00 it's been established that they feed off magic, and more specifically Equestrian magic, in addition to telling/sensing how the energy of the human world differs from it. So they likely know what it 'feels' like (for lack of a better word) and can sense it - especially considering the spell to defeat Sunset Shimmer was extremely powerful so could probably be felt from far away.
Due to the unpredictable nature of this situation, I can't guarantee this won't see another reupload in the future. Thanks for remaining patient in this new Eff Minus vs. Hasbro arc. Support: www.patreon.com/EffMinus
Welcome to the Show did something to me as a kid. To this day, it makes me immediately stop what I'm doing to focus on the song. There's a video someone made where they rebalanced the vocals so all three sirens can be heard and the rainboom's vocals are replaced with instrumentals [minus Twilight vocalising after they pony up and the sirens are going after them] and it gives a very different vibe. The fact that no one's going against them, it makes it feel a lot more hopeless.
Welcome To The Show, once again! Merely a few things i would be fond of mentioning: • Hasbro copyrighting this specific video in particular is rather preposterous, considering that not only did you labour so much on it, they also seem to ignore other creatures purloing content that is not under thier authority, without permission. HEY HASBRO, IF YOU'RE PERUSING THIS: PROVIDE AN ENDING TO EQUESTRIA GIRLS. • The "We Will Be Adored" sequence, clocking in at like 13 seconds is the most pro-eminent thing ever. • Where did you obtain the animation of the person typing something on his computer at *12:41* ? • Why on Earth are students and teachers having crushed on each other exhibited to this extent in the movies? • Now i desire i whole movie about the Dazzlings setting up the party.
Is it because of UA-cam’s silly alliance with UA-cam Kids? I noticed all the MLP is comment section blocked due to being on the Kids’ platform instead 😓
Recall: the Dazzlings are able to get everyone to adore them. What can qualify as adoration? Romantic feelings. And taking into account the romantic and seductive undertones of the Dazzlings, it is highly plausible that they sang a musical number to force Luna into being attracted to them, explaining the heart she drew. This does not equal with depositing a principal falling in love with a sea creature is alright, just that at least there is an in-universe answer. Also, Rarity's odd pronouncement of "Advertisement" is due to it being the British pronunciation of the word. I suppose they desired to make it plain that she is posh and upper-classy.
I was watching Rainbow Rocks yesterday and in the Better than ever song, Fluttershy had both her human and pony ears. Also in the Welcome to the show song, Adagio also had two pairs of ears.
38:18 sawtooth waves / the brony notion made a throey on this and came to the conclusion its about transformation like the portal transfirms ponies to humans and the mane six went from breezies to ponies. apologies for the typos, im not fixing them. also, the video on this is deleted after sawtooth got predator allegations and deleted his channel.
honestly with the dazzlings having nods to post-apocalyptic/death stuff, i'm surprised they're not a death metal/metalcore band. it would've ben 10 times more cool. edit: and with the rainbooms being like, idk power metal, it would've been so cool to have like a power metal and death metal showdown xd
6:10 I just noticed that screenshot you put was was YOU gushing over the Adagio asmr video, while you’re roasting people for gushing over Adagio 🤣 Absolute gold, I’m so glad I found your channel!
I unironically site My Little Pony Equestria Girls 2: Rainbow Rocks as one of my three favorite movies of all time (Alongside Rocky Horror Picture Show and the Madoka Magica film)
What I really love about your analysis in any mlp media is that despite you calling yourself “eff minus” you’ve really taught me some more about music even if it was intentional or unintentional. Plus I like listening to long-format videos while animating so I feel some more motivation
Got this randomly recommended, brought me back to childhood, found the video really entertaining and fun. You received a new subscriber! Hopefully it wont get taken down again as I'm reading in comments~
I always used to think that the Sirens were somehow inspired by the Kanker Sisters from the early 2000s cartoon Ed, Edd and Eddy. They just have to many similarities in terms of behaviour, mindset and even outward physical traits to possibly be a meere coincidence. Adagio represents Lee, as she is the leader of the trio as well the most cunning, arrogant, prideful and has a large, curly, ginger-blond hair. Aria is Marie as she is a counter balance to Adagio and the least explored character thereby making her arguably the most mysterious of the group; she has an eccentric hair style and her fashion choices appear to be orientated towards gothic taste. Thus lastely we have Sonata, who is the most naive yet most innocent of the triad, she is inspired from May as she does not have any harmful thoughts and basically goes with the flow of her other sisters. Her fashion choices are of a more casual style and she seems in certain aspects to an opposite to her siblings, lik when she is distracted by ordinary events instead of faithfully abiding by the plan. I wish the Dazzlings would have gotten more screentime rather than just appear just once more after Rainbow Rocks as side characters, and your typical former villain cliché sequence when you see how they moved on yet are still bitter about what happened.
Me: A moon is probably a day. Makes sense! 😊 Minus: Considering that a moon is understood to be equal to a month- Me: 😱 (Idk why I was genuinely so surprised)
1:04:43 i remember watching the first eg and my mom got so mad that sunset shimmer turned into a demon (conservative christian stuff, i was like 8 at the time) but i remember I wasn't scared at all by her transformation. then a few years later i watched this movie and i remember being so terrified by the final battle i legit turned the tv off and didn't see how it ended. when the sirens projected themselves out of their human body all of that creepy singing just made me imagine those sirens eating everyone and destroying everything and i was so surprised to find out that didn't even happen?? i completely made it up due to the fear i felt on that scene lol
wow I loved this video and how remarks all of those little things I always noticed and just thinked "Oh, thats kinda weird/wrong". Also omg thanks to talk about the last song of the Dazzling because damn I always tough it was kinda "off" or "dark" idk but I love it more now lol After this im gonna cheek out more of your vids! :*
1:25:56 the way i interpreted this sentence is twilight is thinking about how; at least for the moment, she isn't the princess of friendship/saviour of the equestria/ and magic prodigy, in the human world she feels more at ease with her friends at a school where she doesn't have powers on her own. where she isn't considered a princess. just a regular person. a normal teenage girl.
The simple reason behind all this plot hole probably is that they live in an absurdist world where weird shit happen every now and then to the point most just give up on trying to make sense on whatever is happening (discord's magic maybe?)
i've also had lots of questions about the human cutie marks. well, if cutiemarks are a thing then surely there would be places that make custom clothing, right? maybe rarity focuses on cutie mark clothes and pins... i have no clue
1:55:00 every time points like this are brought up i cant help but think how better it wouldve been if the magic was just visible for those who have it or have been afected by it, like, in that way they couldve gotten away with the girls having magic and the school could still know ab it since idk some bullshit excuse like the exposure from being hypnotized or something like that, that way they could know about it and still wouldnt be able to tell anyone since theres no visible evidence for non students who already dont know, also no camera or cellphone wouldve been able to capture it since, well how the fuck would a normal camera do that? this would also explain why at the start of the movie the dazzlings were the only ones running out of the cafe since theyre already from equestria and wouldve been able to see it, its a surprisingly easy solution to a lot of things its sad is not cannon
I don’t comment usually but I 100% agree with you on “welcome to the show” and it gives me goosebumps every time. I also love sunset shimmer and this whole thing is just amazing to experience. Was pleasantly surprised to hear the analysis, because I wonder stuff like that too.
THIS KIND OF FLUTTERSHY SLANDER DOES NOT STAND, I DEMAND YOU GIVE HER A HEARTFELT APOLOGY! Other than that, great video, good thing youtube didn't reccomend the first upload to me cause I wouldn't have watched this otherwise.
I discover your chanel with one of your toys comparisons and I was like 'oh, this is interesting, but his chanel only have like 4 videos, maybe he will never come back, I pass' but them recently pop into my recommendation your 3h video about the inaccuracies of MLP mystery figures and I was like 'i love the ones he do Soo, let's check movie😂' Man, your chanel is what I always want to see and heard about MLP, this are the themes I always want to talk about with others but feel to shy or feel like nobody cares, but you are here and I'm Soo happy now My day is 20% more cool 😂 (yes, let's go with the cringe)
the thing you said at the end about fictional universes outgrowing the creator's/their vision and becoming their own continuum is both very accurate to fandom culture and also just a really interesting thing to think about in regards to creativity, intellectual property, and community building. great video, i loved it, particularly because i also believe sunset can do no wrong haha.
Unrelated question i need to know: Was nightmare moon concious while she was in the moon? Or was it like a sleep. Also is how did the “Stars aid in her escape” is there a star alicorn? Discord was concious for over a thousand years in stone, so was Nightmare moon? Did she just see the earth? We see her as craters in the moon, so was she INSIDE the moon, ON the moon or did she MERGE with the moon.
All of their phones have the school logo on them. Are they school issued devices because if so, isn’t it illegal for the school to control all of their students personal phones with district spyware?
39:29 The lore of the comics isn’t always the same as the lore of the movies and TV series. Like how in the comics, it’s stated that The Dazzlings are siblings, but that’s never really specified in the two movies they appear in
31:29 Maybe they were due to arrive at a certain time so Luna knew they were going to be there when she calls Sunset in? Maybe she told Sunset the time in advance but still called her in to make sure she didn't forget
1:27:53 No, it’s just the writers not being consistent with the timeframe. Since the Sirens were around when Starswirl the bearded, and he was clearly around during Mediaeval Times, that is when this comic is taking place!
Hello! I’m a a new fan from Indonesia! I watched the rainbow rocks musical when I was a child… I remember enjoying it very much but since I was a child, I don’t remember it very well. From what I remember, the Indonesian show happened on a weekend when I was in 3rd grade, I was really into mlp and my family knew it and decided to take me to watch it. I remember there being a small venue with some mlp decoration (posters, standees, etc) and a room filled with young girls excited for the show. The venue was full and I got confused why the show was in English since at that time I taught that everything in Indonesia was only in bahasa Indonesia. Anyways, I was super hype about the show and enjoyed every second of it (I also got mad that they only had 3 of the main 6 as pony’s in the show) anyways- im sorry I didn’t give any additional information about the actual show but I hope this helps
1:47:54 OMG A WINX CLUB reference this makes me so happy 😁 I’m the art style is giving Winx Club.....The Dazzlings wings in their humanoid siren form reminded me of the Sirenix wings the Winx had in their Sirenix forms it will be cool to see a crossover between these franchises. I excited for the Winx reboot next year ✨🧚🏾♀️🌟⭐️💎😀😃💫
I know you might end up covering all the films but please can you cover the legend of Everfree since the cliffhanger at the end of it extremely annoyed me!
thinking about the point with sunset shimmer and the brush at 24:30 , i wonder if it could also be taken as sunset learning to let go of being in control? like she had everyone under her thumb and she could do what she wanted for potentially years at this point, or at least long enough everyone is afraid of her in the first movie. so i wonder if it's a subtle way of showing she's still trying to unlearn being the top dog and the habits that come with it. with this example specifically, it shows how she goes for what she wants or expects out of instinct, ie grabbing the brush to be included and help, instead of just immedietely being super polite and such (which results in the awkward rejection). which i think can definitely go hand in hand with her subconciously thinking "if i already have the brush, they have to let me help, right?" i think the scene works super well in showing she's still not perfect and her actions have genuine consequences and affects on people, and just because youre working towards being good, it doesnt mean youre going to unlearn all your behaviors overnight
Damn what’s the issue with copyright? People can literally upload the equestria girls movies and even make an hour reaction to them but this video is enough to request a claim?
video is so good, i love long form content, but you keep going too deep on little irrelevant details😭it’s a cartoon based around a cross between species. it’s of course gonna be weird with specifics. what i’m trying to say is that the micro hating took away from the impact of the point of the retrospective, and made it much harder to follow. the explanation you have and how you convey it are amazing. and the passion i can see you have for the topic and show is enthusiastic. but the mock criticism could’ve been left for the end of each short, or a section dedicated to your dislike of the inconsistency of some details. other than that i really like the way you explain and lay out the plot for viewers it’s easy to go back even since i haven’t watched this movie for a long time
Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind, since flow and impact are some of the most important aspects of writing good videos. Though I'm also tryna be hyperbolic and really ham up this character of being someone who's chronically obsessed with every little irrelevant detail in a kids' show like this. When I'm stepping out of this "character", it's pretty clear, since what I'm saying is tonally different and not sarcastic. I'm sure you've picked up that when I was discussing thematic stuff and meta information, I tried to leave those snarky comments to a minimum. Leaving all that "micro hating", as you put it, in a separate section sounds like it'd actually hinder the structure of the video, since I'd have to go back and re-explain the context to everything for it to make sense. But I do hear what you're saying, and I will keep this in mind for my future videos, thanks for watching!
Sunset is such a great character. Though the fact that we have no idea what happened to her after the last EG special or Twilights Coronation. In my head canon i like to think that Twilight goes to Visit the Human world in the time between defeating the Legion of Doom and her coronation to Tell Sunset about her changing life. And that after hearing this Sunset realises what she left behind in Equestria, feeling she belongs more there than at Canterlot High. And with this she decides to say goodbye to the Human Mane 6 and comes home to Equestria. She's there at Twilight's coronation (though not shown onscreen in the last problem) and decides to (with Twilight's personal tutoring) to resume her previously abandoned studies in Magic as redemption. The Crystal mirror Finally is destroyed to prevent anypony from using its power again to go between different dimensions.
I like you headcanon a lot, I have a similar one. Realistically speaking, Sunset doesn't belong to the human world, she has to go back where she originally belongs, probably theres is already a human Sunset who fulfills her role in the human world, so two Sunsets in one dimension? probably that would already create an imbalance between dimensions, so no. I also like to think that the Human Mane 6 find the real human Sunset and they become friends again :D. Also I like your pfp :0.
@@erenwalker5487 I always like to think that the human world version of Sunset follows the pattern of Equestrian Sunset where she got greedy and left for another place with ambitions. And thus that’s where she is in Equestria Girls. There is far more to my head canon that’s so complicated and very much relegates it to just my version and not a widely accepted unofficial canon. But If you wish to know more you’re more than welcome to ask.
I was excited to watch this but mf kept nagging abt things no one cares abt bro just talk abt what you say ur gonna talk abt this was actually so annoying to sit thru

In Starlight the Hypnotist, its revealed that Twilight Sparkle is afraid of Ladybugs! Coccinelledaephobia.
She's been pretty ok around them in the past, but Fluttershy seemed to trigger the fear again because of a School of Friendship project.
Twilight says that Shining Armor said that the spots are "Extra eyes, that watch you wherever you go."
This actually seems highly relevant, suggesting that ladybugs have, or have ties to an entity with, the ability to see between dimensions in FiM canon.
Perhaps its Discord? He jas those beady red eyes...
Or perhaps its something else?

oooooo ladybug-esque mlp entity 👀, sounds like a cool idea for something like an "oc" of sorts
the whole "why did the sirens only show up now" thing i think can be explained by them having been asleep for a long time. hence why adagio is more knowledgeable about the world, why aria says "go back to sleep, sonata," at one point, why sonata is so clueless, AND why it seems like adagio got to the human world at a different time. maybe they were all put to Magical Sleep, but because it's been such a long time since starswirl banished them, the spell has grown weaker over time, which could be why they awoke one after another. idk. i'm only forty minutes in tho so you might mention this
finally, someone who actually knew what i was actually asking instead of braindeadly commenting "durr they came to CHS because Sunset's magic" as if that was what i was confused about. thanks.

I’ve always thought that Rarity made them those pjs, since she likes making her friends custom outfits.
Back when I saw this movie for the first time, and the dazzlings saw the GIANT RAINBOW TORNADO from the end of the first movie and no one else seemed to react to it, for some reason I got it into my head that no one else could see the rainbow tornado but the dazzlings could cause they had some equestrian magic. I also thought that the negative energy green gas could only be seen by people with equestrian magic as well. Honestly, I have no idea why I thought this and I don’t know if there is anything in the movies that debunk my theory, but maybe it could explain why no one else reacts to the obvious magical occurrences that are happing around them. This still wouldn’t explain how Canterlot High hid all the insane damage caused by Sunsets Shimmers little “boo-boo” ( as said by Rarity )
This video is awesome and I can’t even imagine the amount of work it took to make it. This is the first time I’ve seen your channel but I’m definitely gonna check out your other videos.
( also it’s so great to finally see someone else talk about how great Sunset Shimmer is lol. )
that’s a neat interpretation! there are some bits and crumbs that may be taken to imply that, but honestly let’s just blame the movie for not making it clear enough lol.
I THOUGHT THIS TOO! FINALLY, SOMEONE WHO AGREES!
Same. I always wrote it down to the fog being just a visual sign to the viewer, because otherwise it'd look weird or to magic working like stands in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, where only stand users could see other stands.
That’s what I thought
The "Friendship iiiiis MAGIIIIC!" scene gives me psychic damage every time like I love this movie but I legit have to stand up and walk away when that scene plays IT'S SO EMBARRASSING
1:00:27 If you play the clip for legit 5 more seconds, you'll see that it was actually Vinyl who opened the door, Spike just pushed it. Dogs CAN push doors open as long as they are not shut tightly
Here’s a theory: The novelization says the people at the café were listening to an album by the Sonic Rainbooms, but Rainbow Dash hadn’t formed her band yet in the chronology. Well, the band in Rainbow Rocks isn’t called the Sonic Rainbooms, rather it’s just called the Rainbooms. Perhaps the Sonic Rainbooms are a professional band that Rainbow Dash likes so much that she named her band after them and called it the Rainbooms.
Calling human guys Diamond Dogs sounds like a masculine form of Gold Diggers.
i might be stealing that now
Rarity's pronunciation of advertisement is the british pronunciation of it actually! :D
So Rarity is British, who knew?
The fluttersht slander will NOT be tolerated
I agree! I don't see how slandering Fluttershy is funny! Especially when Fluttershy is so adorable!
59:35
I wouldn't say Twi is being egotistical. She doesn't think she should have all the answers because she thinks so highly of herself, she says that because she feels like that's what the human mane 6 expect of her. Sunset wrote to her first when she didn't know what to do about the sirens, and the last time Twi was there, she succeeded in saving the day. So she probably feels like they expect her to know just what to do and like she said in the scene at Pinkie's house, the last thing she wants to do is let everybody down.
14:27 I’m fairly sure the joke is, as you mentioned earlier, rainbow dash says she has a sense for it, despite it going over her head the whole short, thus the joke is largely the irony surrounding her words.
probably, but the ba dum tss was NOT earned haha
R.I.P. all that hard work gone. At least it's back.
What happened with UA-cam? Back then we could watch and react to MLP content without any copyright problems! There's someome on UA-cam who have ALL 9 seasons of MLP: FIM on their UA-cam channel back in 2019!💀
All seasons of mlp and all of the movies are still up on youtube
yeah! someone also has the 1st and 2nd movie on their channel
Ok guys how about we keep quiet so UA-cam doesn’t realize it
@@Alejandro_Valencia_Loves_Kids i doubt they give a f*ck i have plenty of fruity comments and even a bunch of swearing....they never noticed me
hasbro definitely claims those too, but they’re not taken down because it gives them more money that way. money is the only thing that matters to them
This didn’t pop up in my feed the first time, so when I saw this wad reupload I was surprised but glad I saw it and watched
yep same
Roughly 5:00. The reason why she knows that is a equestrian magic is, what else could it be? The Dazzlings have been in this world long enough to know that it doesn’t have magic normally. So if they see magic, it’s likely equestrian magic because how else does this world have magic? it would be more of a stretch to say it came from a different source.
I believe the reason why the clarification necessary is because she was just trying to emphasize it. This is it just magic. This is magic from their home world. I know that’s apparent, but it means so much power and possibly a way back home. she’s spelling it out.
All of the Equestria Girls movies were honestly pretty decent in my opinion! I can imagine they did well, and Hasbro probably knows this... which scares me. Imagine they made some sort of an Equestria Girls spinoff for G5. (though I don't want to give them any ideas lol)
It would be so evil to give EG a g5 when it didn't even have a proper ending like the main show did lol
i mean, considering EG existed purely because of the sucess of fashion dolls in the 2010s (as much as i love EG i have to admit that), the spiritual sucessor to that wouldn't be also another line of fashion dolls, but whatever is doing well in the toy market at the moment and hasbro wants to shoehorn into the mlp franchise. (mlp slime.. no)
that one trendy thing might still be fashion dolls, just different ones, so idk!
First, they should provide a proper closure to G4 Equestria Girls.
g5 equestria girls would be nightmare fuel. burn it down.
1:03:59 Because in most cases, if a high school event is being held in a public place (as this one is), it is open to the public to attend the event
i thought yt was fucking me over giving me a notification for a vid i watched a day ago xD
time to watch it again!!!!
@@EffMinusalready on it
@@Mayo_Nayoo me too
@@EffMinusand again, and again. the mlp craze never dies.
I never knew about that post credit scene thingy at the end, i thought the other twilight sparkle was created outta nowhere for an excuse for the sequel
The Ladybug theory Ive seen is that they represent change or transformation, and to viewers story progression as they usually pop up during important moments or character reveals. Sorta a branch off of the butterfly effect
i just want to say my personal head cannon of why spike is a dog. in the original show, spike plays the role of not only an assistant, but also emotional support. twilight NEEDS him to function. he is shown several times throughout the show telling twilight to sleep, take a break, eat, and we can assume other basic self-care tasks. the role spike plays is *almost* that of a caretaker, except twilight actually plays that role. spike was raised by her, and is definitely considered family. however, there are multiple references implying that spike does not see her as his mother. she is a guardian. she provides food, shelter, love, care, etc for spike. and in return, he provides love, care, and special tasks. this is very similar to the role a service dog plays, which we can infer from the real human twilight is real dog spike's role. service dogs perform special tasks for their owners' specific needs. they can bring meds, drinks, alert other people for help, provide deep pressure therapy, use grounding techniques, alert owner of danger, etc. spike as a dragon can easily be seen as able to perform this tasks. service dogs are not pets, they are an essential tool for everyday functioning. twilight makes multiple points to tell spike how much she appreciates him and can't function as well without him. service dogs also aren't always working. and spike gets breaks too. twilight shows some autistic traits, some of which could also be interpreted as anxiety. she hyperfixates on multiple things multiple times in the show. she can go long stretches so immersed in whatever it is she's doing that she won't even sleep. she also had trouble socializing for a lot of her life, it taking a long time for her to willingly and enthusiastically interact with people. she needs to be reminded to take care of herself. she has a lot of niche interests she cares and knows very much about, and loves to infodump to anyone who will listen. she also had an entire episode dedicated to how she felt so strongly the need to be included when everyone had fun with discord the previous days without her. autistic people often feel like outcasts, and rejects by their friends. twilight does have insecurities about this. she feels like if she could just know all of the possible context, there's nothing she could be left out of. she is shown to have a lot of black and white thinking like this. she sometimes struggles with expressing her emotions, bottling them up at times only to lead to a meltdown later. spike does help with all of these things, being her most reliable source of comfort and assistance throughout the show. it's also important to note that twilight does consider spike as family and herself as his guardian, but she never calls him her son. she does often call him, lovingly, her #1 assistant. my other justification for this is, we can assume that maybe the portal changes you into the creature whose intelligence you most closely match. spike is a baby dragon, but unlike a human baby he can walk, talk, be left on his own, and perform complex tasks. a service dog, by the time they are completely trained, also has the ability to perform complex tasks and be trusted to make their own decisions. both of them can also think about decisions they make and make an assumption about the best course of action in many situations. and this is something to think about when we see how real dog spike talks to twilight when he can finally speak. he doesn't treat her very different from the way dragon spike treats pony twilight. i think that because spike's role more easily translates to "service dog" vs "awkwardly smart toddler" or randomly changing his age uncomfortably up, it was probably the best solution. this can also explain why the sirens look like teenagers. they are permantely unable to grow up, with incredibly juvenile desires, values, and reasoning. the explanation for twilight being a teenager could be that because she is a horse, her intelligence is very smart in her world, but underdeveloped in the human world. the ponies have magic, but could otherwise be considered as in their early modern era, while the humans are in the modern era. two teenagers from separate eras have completely different types of knowledge. a teenager in one era likely had more access to knowledge than a teenager in the era before. by comparison, making one sort of like "elementary" intellect and the other have more "advanced" information. this could also be why the cutie mark crusaders are aged up, their maturity being above their pony age and closer to just a slightly older human child's. if we just ignore the diamond dogs (as we should) this explanation makes the most sense to me
I looooove this idea!! Super support it. Basically canon to me now :)
And maybe the diamond dogs are just as mature as immature adults. I guarantee there are people like them so who knows! But I’m also content to go back to forgetting they ever showed up in show or movie form.
It's a good thing I haven't watched the original video yet, I'm watching the reupload version to show some support.
thank you
Oh man! A reuplaod. UA-cam got em
I think one of the things that I like about this movie is probably the music, especially Welcome To The Show. It's my second favourite MLP song that just ties in with One Small Thing from the 2017 movie.
I randomly found the original the other day and watched it, had a great time, watched another the next day and then was confused when i went to your channel and saw this had been uploaded 2 hours ago and thought my laptop was just acting up again, I didn't realize it was a reupload! Sorry your vid got taken down, it's amazing!
The reason they’re only resurfacing now could be that they didn’t feel any strong equestrian magic until the start of the movie, that would’ve been fine ig.
Here in Latin America, there was also a live show based on Rainbow Rocks. Well, based on both that and the first Equestria Girls movie to be exact; i.e. it's about Sunset going up for Fall Formal Princess and the Dazzlings trying to stop that. It's here in UA-cam as "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: El Show En Vivo".
I was so confused, but then I saw why and I was like wtf Hasbro, people literally have full ass playlists of the series and such on YT 😭
someone quite literally uploaded the ENTIRETY of an equestria girls movie on youtube. its been up for 3 months
@@ploppledoodledoo17 the whole show, the movies, and the specials are ALL on youtube and it has been for years, im fully convinced they did this for no reason (love ur kyle icon btw)
@@ploppledoodledoo17and this has be reuploaded for years. I watched it for free on yt like 6 years ago 😭
I have 6 mlp playlists 💀💀💀💀💀💀
5:00 it's been established that they feed off magic, and more specifically Equestrian magic, in addition to telling/sensing how the energy of the human world differs from it. So they likely know what it 'feels' like (for lack of a better word) and can sense it - especially considering the spell to defeat Sunset Shimmer was extremely powerful so could probably be felt from far away.
Due to the unpredictable nature of this situation, I can't guarantee this won't see another reupload in the future. Thanks for remaining patient in this new Eff Minus vs. Hasbro arc.

NOOOO, I can’t believe hasbro would do this. No I can but cmon what is wrong with them
God damn those capitalist assholes abusing UA-cam’s copyright system. This is absolutely Fair Use!!!
This video was nice and long which was good because I love putting these kinds of videos on in the background while doing other things. Thanks! :D
1:23:19 I like the implication that Eff Minus wilts like a Tamagotchi being denied nutrition when there's a plot hole in MLP books
Welcome to the Show did something to me as a kid. To this day, it makes me immediately stop what I'm doing to focus on the song. There's a video someone made where they rebalanced the vocals so all three sirens can be heard and the rainboom's vocals are replaced with instrumentals [minus Twilight vocalising after they pony up and the sirens are going after them] and it gives a very different vibe. The fact that no one's going against them, it makes it feel a lot more hopeless.
14:20 i think the joke is ironic since it took rainbow 3 days to figure out pinky should play the drums. Pinky is like calling her out
Welcome To The Show, once again!
Merely a few things i would be fond of mentioning:
• Hasbro copyrighting this specific video in particular is rather preposterous, considering that not only did you labour so much on it, they also seem to ignore other creatures purloing content that is not under thier authority, without permission. HEY HASBRO, IF YOU'RE PERUSING THIS: PROVIDE AN ENDING TO EQUESTRIA GIRLS.
• The "We Will Be Adored" sequence, clocking in at like 13 seconds is the most pro-eminent thing ever.
• Where did you obtain the animation of the person typing something on his computer at *12:41* ?
• Why on Earth are students and teachers having crushed on each other exhibited to this extent in the movies?
• Now i desire i whole movie about the Dazzlings setting up the party.
I literally don’t remember when I found it lol. but finding it seemed like fate because of how perfect it is to use xd.
@@EffMinus Well, i concur with that. Anyways, have a magnificent day! ❤️💜
Is it because of UA-cam’s silly alliance with UA-cam Kids? I noticed all the MLP is comment section blocked due to being on the Kids’ platform instead 😓
Recall: the Dazzlings are able to get everyone to adore them. What can qualify as adoration? Romantic feelings. And taking into account the romantic and seductive undertones of the Dazzlings, it is highly plausible that they sang a musical number to force Luna into being attracted to them, explaining the heart she drew. This does not equal with depositing a principal falling in love with a sea creature is alright, just that at least there is an in-universe answer.
Also, Rarity's odd pronouncement of "Advertisement" is due to it being the British pronunciation of the word. I suppose they desired to make it plain that she is posh and upper-classy.
I was watching Rainbow Rocks yesterday and in the Better than ever song, Fluttershy had both her human and pony ears. Also in the Welcome to the show song, Adagio also had two pairs of ears.
38:18 sawtooth waves / the brony notion made a throey on this and came to the conclusion its about transformation like the portal transfirms ponies to humans and the mane six went from breezies to ponies.
apologies for the typos, im not fixing them.
also, the video on this is deleted after sawtooth got predator allegations and deleted his channel.
honestly with the dazzlings having nods to post-apocalyptic/death stuff, i'm surprised they're not a death metal/metalcore band. it would've ben 10 times more cool.
edit: and with the rainbooms being like, idk power metal, it would've been so cool to have like a power metal and death metal showdown xd
In my crossover universe, Canterlot city is actually an anomaly overseen by the SCP foundation. Just to give you some food for thought.
“Did Starlight get a sick redemption song?”
Yes, she did.

This is one of the best analysees I've ever seen and it's about humanized MLP
What I really love about your analysis in any mlp media is that despite you calling yourself “eff minus” you’ve really taught me some more about music even if it was intentional or unintentional. Plus I like listening to long-format videos while animating so I feel some more motivation
Got this randomly recommended, brought me back to childhood, found the video really entertaining and fun. You received a new subscriber! Hopefully it wont get taken down again as I'm reading in comments~
i clicked this video thinking it was twenty minutes long while diamond dotting... i just finished the video and figured out it was 2 hours
If the Dazzlings really wanted a full dose of negative energy, they could've just moved to Mexico.
I always used to think that the Sirens were somehow inspired by the Kanker Sisters from the early 2000s cartoon Ed, Edd and Eddy. They just have to many similarities in terms of behaviour, mindset and even outward physical traits to possibly be a meere coincidence.
Adagio represents Lee, as she is the leader of the trio as well the most cunning, arrogant, prideful and has a large, curly, ginger-blond hair. Aria is Marie as she is a counter balance to Adagio and the least explored character thereby making her arguably the most mysterious of the group; she has an eccentric hair style and her fashion choices appear to be orientated towards gothic taste. Thus lastely we have Sonata, who is the most naive yet most innocent of the triad, she is inspired from May as she does not have any harmful thoughts and basically goes with the flow of her other sisters. Her fashion choices are of a more casual style and she seems in certain aspects to an opposite to her siblings, lik when she is distracted by ordinary events instead of faithfully abiding by the plan.
I wish the Dazzlings would have gotten more screentime rather than just appear just once more after Rainbow Rocks as side characters, and your typical former villain cliché sequence when you see how they moved on yet are still bitter about what happened.
I love Rainbow Rocks, i just wish EQG got a series
Technically, it did! It got a series of specials and shorts.
@digijem01 Yeah, but I meant a full length series. I think EQG could work rly well with a villian of the week format.

1:04:43 i remember watching the first eg and my mom got so mad that sunset shimmer turned into a demon (conservative christian stuff, i was like 8 at the time) but i remember I wasn't scared at all by her transformation.
then a few years later i watched this movie and i remember being so terrified by the final battle i legit turned the tv off and didn't see how it ended. when the sirens projected themselves out of their human body all of that creepy singing just made me imagine those sirens eating everyone and destroying everything and i was so surprised to find out that didn't even happen?? i completely made it up due to the fear i felt on that scene lol
Dude i NEED to know where the hatred of Fluttershy comes from, im dying to hear your in-depth opinion on her
This isn't hate towards you btw, I'm genuinely really curious
she owes me like $20
@@EffMinusaka she owes you 40 tomatos
I really liked the original video, is really full of content besides the movie and that dedication is amazing
i will forever be salty that the dazzlings got no appearance after rainbow rocks besides like two minutes in sunset's backstage pass
26:05
I think it's a regional thing. I pronounce it the same way Rarity does which is (according to Google) the British pronunciation.
i COULDNT stop laughing through the whole video 😭 this actually is pretty accurate and i definitely agree with you on some of these points
thanks for such a kind comment! that's very encouraging.
wow I loved this video and how remarks all of those little things I always noticed and just thinked "Oh, thats kinda weird/wrong".
Also omg thanks to talk about the last song of the Dazzling because damn I always tough it was kinda "off" or "dark" idk but I love it more now lol
After this im gonna cheek out more of your vids! :*
bruh i've been getting quite a bit of negative comments lately, so i appreciate this FAR MORE than you realize! thank you :)!
@@EffMinus you're welcome! Your videos are super interesting btw, really excited to see the next part !!!
heres a thought what is they made a dazzlings spinoff where they show there day to day in the human world , ngl i would definitely watch that .
that sounds awesome
1:25:56 the way i interpreted this sentence is twilight is thinking about how; at least for the moment, she isn't the princess of friendship/saviour of the equestria/ and magic prodigy, in the human world she feels more at ease with her friends at a school where she doesn't have powers on her own. where she isn't considered a princess. just a regular person. a normal teenage girl.
The simple reason behind all this plot hole probably is that they live in an absurdist world where weird shit happen every now and then to the point most just give up on trying to make sense on whatever is happening (discord's magic maybe?)
i've also had lots of questions about the human cutie marks. well, if cutiemarks are a thing then surely there would be places that make custom clothing, right? maybe rarity focuses on cutie mark clothes and pins... i have no clue
a “brief” retrospective my ass i fr took 2.5 hours to watch this cuz breaks and shit and now it’s 1 am for me😭
1:55:00 every time points like this are brought up i cant help but think how better it wouldve been if the magic was just visible for those who have it or have been afected by it, like, in that way they couldve gotten away with the girls having magic and the school could still know ab it since idk some bullshit excuse like the exposure from being hypnotized or something like that, that way they could know about it and still wouldnt be able to tell anyone since theres no visible evidence for non students who already dont know, also no camera or cellphone wouldve been able to capture it since, well how the fuck would a normal camera do that? this would also explain why at the start of the movie the dazzlings were the only ones running out of the cafe since theyre already from equestria and wouldve been able to see it, its a surprisingly easy solution to a lot of things its sad is not cannon
I don’t comment usually but I 100% agree with you on “welcome to the show” and it gives me goosebumps every time. I also love sunset shimmer and this whole thing is just amazing to experience. Was pleasantly surprised to hear the analysis, because I wonder stuff like that too.
“Oh a knock on the door! WhO iS iT? Oh *gun click* what do you want?” Favorite line

I discover your chanel with one of your toys comparisons and I was like 'oh, this is interesting, but his chanel only have like 4 videos, maybe he will never come back, I pass' but them recently pop into my recommendation your 3h video about the inaccuracies of MLP mystery figures and I was like 'i love the ones he do Soo, let's check movie😂'
Man, your chanel is what I always want to see and heard about MLP, this are the themes I always want to talk about with others but feel to shy or feel like nobody cares, but you are here and I'm Soo happy now
My day is 20% more cool 😂 (yes, let's go with the cringe)
The bit about the videos being wrongly claimed feels like forshadowing now.
Advertisement is pronounced that way by most English people. I’m not sure how common it is in the americas but it is pretty common across the ocean!
It's not common at all here..I've never heard it pronounced like that. It's like you're making letters silent that shouldn't be.
the thing you said at the end about fictional universes outgrowing the creator's/their vision and becoming their own continuum is both very accurate to fandom culture and also just a really interesting thing to think about in regards to creativity, intellectual property, and community building. great video, i loved it, particularly because i also believe sunset can do no wrong haha.
thanks for watching it to the end!! that means a lot!
Unrelated question i need to know:
Was nightmare moon concious while she was in the moon? Or was it like a sleep.
Also is how did the “Stars aid in her escape” is there a star alicorn?
Discord was concious for over a thousand years in stone, so was Nightmare moon? Did she just see the earth? We see her as craters in the moon, so was she INSIDE the moon, ON the moon or did she MERGE with the moon.
I shall soon be talking about all that in my retrospectives of the main show!

6:39 you are 100% correct, I was beyond psyched
39:29 The lore of the comics isn’t always the same as the lore of the movies and TV series. Like how in the comics, it’s stated that The Dazzlings are siblings, but that’s never really specified in the two movies they appear in
31:29 Maybe they were due to arrive at a certain time so Luna knew they were going to be there when she calls Sunset in? Maybe she told Sunset the time in advance but still called her in to make sure she didn't forget
1:27:53 No, it’s just the writers not being consistent with the timeframe. Since the Sirens were around when Starswirl the bearded, and he was clearly around during Mediaeval Times, that is when this comic is taking place!
Hello! I’m a a new fan from Indonesia! I watched the rainbow rocks musical when I was a child… I remember enjoying it very much but since I was a child, I don’t remember it very well. From what I remember, the Indonesian show happened on a weekend when I was in 3rd grade, I was really into mlp and my family knew it and decided to take me to watch it. I remember there being a small venue with some mlp decoration (posters, standees, etc) and a room filled with young girls excited for the show. The venue was full and I got confused why the show was in English since at that time I taught that everything in Indonesia was only in bahasa Indonesia. Anyways, I was super hype about the show and enjoyed every second of it (I also got mad that they only had 3 of the main 6 as pony’s in the show) anyways- im sorry I didn’t give any additional information about the actual show but I hope this helps
Even when i was young, i was rooting for the dazzlings cus their songs just slap! Now i listen to vocaloid to get that uncanny harmony
39:04 🗣️This is the one officer the one whos gone down bad.
Hoping for the best this time around, really enjoyed this vid (even on 2nd rewatch lol)
1:47:54 OMG A WINX CLUB reference this makes me so happy 😁 I’m the art style is giving Winx Club.....The Dazzlings wings in their humanoid siren form reminded me of the Sirenix wings the Winx had in their Sirenix forms it will be cool to see a crossover between these franchises.

I know you might end up covering all the films but please can you cover the legend of Everfree since the cliffhanger at the end of it extremely annoyed me!
yep, but I can’t guarantee that’ll come out any time soon haha
thinking about the point with sunset shimmer and the brush at 24:30 , i wonder if it could also be taken as sunset learning to let go of being in control? like she had everyone under her thumb and she could do what she wanted for potentially years at this point, or at least long enough everyone is afraid of her in the first movie. so i wonder if it's a subtle way of showing she's still trying to unlearn being the top dog and the habits that come with it. with this example specifically, it shows how she goes for what she wants or expects out of instinct, ie grabbing the brush to be included and help, instead of just immedietely being super polite and such (which results in the awkward rejection). which i think can definitely go hand in hand with her subconciously thinking "if i already have the brush, they have to let me help, right?" i think the scene works super well in showing she's still not perfect and her actions have genuine consequences and affects on people, and just because youre working towards being good, it doesnt mean youre going to unlearn all your behaviors overnight
Damn what’s the issue with copyright? People can literally upload the equestria girls movies and even make an hour reaction to them but this video is enough to request a claim?
video is so good, i love long form content, but you keep going too deep on little irrelevant details😭it’s a cartoon based around a cross between species. it’s of course gonna be weird with specifics. what i’m trying to say is that the micro hating took away from the impact of the point of the retrospective, and made it much harder to follow. the explanation you have and how you convey it are amazing. and the passion i can see you have for the topic and show is enthusiastic. but the mock criticism could’ve been left for the end of each short, or a section dedicated to your dislike of the inconsistency of some details. other than that i really like the way you explain and lay out the plot for viewers it’s easy to go back even since i haven’t watched this movie for a long time
Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind, since flow and impact are some of the most important aspects of writing good videos.
Though I'm also tryna be hyperbolic and really ham up this character of being someone who's chronically obsessed with every little irrelevant detail in a kids' show like this. When I'm stepping out of this "character", it's pretty clear, since what I'm saying is tonally different and not sarcastic. I'm sure you've picked up that when I was discussing thematic stuff and meta information, I tried to leave those snarky comments to a minimum.
Leaving all that "micro hating", as you put it, in a separate section sounds like it'd actually hinder the structure of the video, since I'd have to go back and re-explain the context to everything for it to make sense.
But I do hear what you're saying, and I will keep this in mind for my future videos, thanks for watching!
Sunset is such a great character. Though the fact that we have no idea what happened to her after the last EG special or Twilights Coronation. In my head canon i like to think that Twilight goes to Visit the Human world in the time between defeating the Legion of Doom and her coronation to Tell Sunset about her changing life. And that after hearing this Sunset realises what she left behind in Equestria, feeling she belongs more there than at Canterlot High. And with this she decides to say goodbye to the Human Mane 6 and comes home to Equestria. She's there at Twilight's coronation (though not shown onscreen in the last problem) and decides to (with Twilight's personal tutoring) to resume her previously abandoned studies in Magic as redemption. The Crystal mirror Finally is destroyed to prevent anypony from using its power again to go between different dimensions.
I like you headcanon a lot, I have a similar one. Realistically speaking, Sunset doesn't belong to the human world, she has to go back where she originally belongs, probably theres is already a human Sunset who fulfills her role in the human world, so two Sunsets in one dimension? probably that would already create an imbalance between dimensions, so no. I also like to think that the Human Mane 6 find the real human Sunset and they become friends again :D. Also I like your pfp :0.
@@erenwalker5487 I always like to think that the human world version of Sunset follows the pattern of Equestrian Sunset where she got greedy and left for another place with ambitions. And thus that’s where she is in Equestria Girls. There is far more to my head canon that’s so complicated and very much relegates it to just my version and not a widely accepted unofficial canon. But If you wish to know more you’re more than welcome to ask.
