The Moon Rises is the counterpart to this video, depicting essentially the same event (Luna's Fall) but from the point of view of Luna, the darker sister. It's also beautifully animated and sung.
A fun fact about Lullaby: it took over two years to make! The creator very much worked hard on the video.
I'm so glad that even after years people still love this video and react to it
Yea
@@NerdialYT yea
now u ahve to see moonrise is basically the continuation.. i like the singing in that one more. it also have a Metal version that is Fire
didn’t they at one point copyright strike it?
"Lullaby For A Princess" Is one of the greatest animations in the history of the mlp fandom! You guys made an excellent choice reacting to this vid!!!
they should watch the moon rises as these 2 come hand in hand :3
I honestly like "The Moon Rises" more. It's so well done!
Flare is speaking Straight Facts.
Yea!!!
@@fluttershyisnotadoormat4678 yep :3
Luna and celestia weren't just idolized as rulers they were goddesses, moving the sun and the moon in harmony.
not really. They can put their magic in a small amulet... so they are not goddesses, they are more like scientists of magic - unicorns who made their own spells in a new fields of magic. Sort of having doctor degree in magic :) So, if you have a doctor degree in magic (can make new spells, not just repeat what have already been done by others) and you are a pony female born as an unicorn - you become a full-powered princess and a candidate to rule the country. Actually it feels a little bit unfair that there are such restrictions as gender and race, but at the same time it's part of our lives I guess... It is how it works in real life sometimes :)
@@nikolaymatveychuk6145 There is no restricton on race (both Cadance & Cozy Glow were born pegasus).
It is not restricted on gender either. There is a broken statue of an alicorn stallion in The Castle of The Two Sisters (MLP:FiM_S4E03). Plus Big Mac's dream form in S5E13.
@@adolfodef Cozy Glow became an alicorn because she had got too much magic from the bell, it doesn't count. About Cadance, it is a good point but there is no any sign of it in the show (to be honest I didn't know that Cadance was born pegasus because I haven't read Chapter books). So, I agree but I would be happy to see it in the show itself.
About gender restrictions, dreams don't count. I can breath under water in my dreams, it doesn't mean I can get the same ability in real life :) About the alicorn statue, it may be a made up creature that has never existed... we know at least one male pony who should be an alicorn but never became one - Star Swirl. He created almost all existing spells but Twilight became an alicorn the moment she finished one of his unfinished spells. I believe this is a good proof that a male can not be an alicorn in pony universe.
@@nikolaymatveychuk6145Actually, Luna and Celestia where born alicorns. There's two ways to become an alicorn, through proving yourself with your actions or from being born as one (like we see with Flury Heart). That's why there's a debate on whether or not Twilight will out live her friends. She wasn't born an alicorn and we don't know if a naturally born alicorn lifespan applies to her or not. My point is, Luna and Celestia weren't made princesses, they were born as them, so that last part is entirely wrong.
@@RKX217 why Luna and Celestia were so confused when they saw that Flury Heart was born as alicorn? If two out of four living alicorns were born this way, it means this event is not that rare. Is there any mention in the series that Celestia and Luna were born as alicorns?
The My Little Pony Fanbase is WILD. Like, I think it was only a single person that animated all that, which is INSANE. It's crazy how good it came out for just one guy's work.
That said, the MLP fanbase has always been absurdly talented with animation.
Even though many of them used such talents to traumatize an entire generation.
Remember, never look in the shed, and never eat the cupcakes.
Anyone who knows what the last line means knows 💀
@@daisiathepotatoangel1273 I just reminded a bunch of people of their long suppressed trauma from when they were like... 6.🤣🤣🤣
And if the Pink one stops smiling, pray
And never take a tour of the Rainbow Factory.
@@colt1903 Yep 😂
Fun fact: the creator, WarpOut, didn’t use any computer animation for this. It’s *ENTIRELY* hand drawn
Tbf that’s not 100% true, it’s all hand drawn but it’s mostly made on a computer. For example, in WarpOut’s BTS video they explain that parts are done with Puppet Rigging in toonboom.
many elements are obviously automated in some fashion, like the flowing mane effects and some tweening on the character movements; that's not a "bad thing" or sign of laziness, just an animator using the tools at their disposal to achieve the desired outcome. It's still one of my favorite videos 😊
the BACKGROUNDS are entirely hand painted
So you get the basics here.
Celestia controls the sun, Luna the moon. When Luna fell to the shadow (Nightmare Moon), and tried to bring about everlasting night. Celestia had to banish her own sister to be sealed in the moon for 1000 years.
The story of the Two Alicorn Sisters is for certain the saddest in all the MLP: FIM. Celestia loved her sister tremendously, but she couldn't prevent Luna's jealousy from turning her into Nightmare Moon and was forced to banish her to the moon in order to protect their kingdom. Despite it's not exactly how it happens in the series, this song and video is the perfect illustration of their story. And in fact the animation is really good. Everything in it was done by hand and it took about two years to be done.
85% agree with you about that... with the exception would be the apple parents sometimes hit just as good.
@@moonlitdraconic1107 Well... the Apple parents' story is sad in a realistic kind of shakesperian way (if Romeo and Juliet didn't die)...
@@moonlitdraconic1107 The apple parents is tragic, but not as cruel as the tale of the sisters.
Imagine you having to fight your sibling whom you love dearly, only to lock her away in the heat of the moment for 1000 years. Not only would you give yourself all the blame for what happened, you have to fill the role of your sibling for all that time and also have to move the very prison your sibling was locked away every day and every night, remembering yourself what you did.
Celestia had no chance of actually working through that trauma over all those years as she was confronted by it, every moment in a literal century. Even known torture methods don't come close to it if you ask me, just by the fact that it's over the life span of 10 generations.
The apple family at least knew that their parents were living together, loving each other with every fibre of their soul and that they left this world together. They are missed dearly but the remaining family members were actually able to work through the trauma of losing their loved ones.
@@Gaster601 BECAUSE SHE'S FOOL. NEVER CARE FOR LUNA.
This is the Magnum Opus of the fandom, and thank you for opening yourselves to the emotions contained in it. And others have said, The Moon Rises, should be your next one.
*This!*
^5!
I swear the fandom did so many song about this one show and somehow succeed to make better stuff than what we get by official company today
Yeah aside from Opaline's song, the songs in G5 have been kinda not great. The movie songs were good but the show songs just arent hitting like they should.
They also started a holiday “Summer Sun Celebration” in the name of Nightmare Moon being banished and I absolutely loved how Celestia talked about it
Gotta love the moment in the show where Twilight says “Wow what a great celebration Celestia!!” And Celestia looks at the window and just goes “You know, this whole time a nation wide holiday reminded me of the day I had to banish the only family I had left and be lonely for the next 1000 years while literally everyone else praised me for it every single year” and Twilight just stutters awkwardly and doesn’t know what to say
I really liked this moment
This is actually a huge part of the storyline in the show, it’s never seen but in this animation we get to see part of the stories we as the viewers are told when starting the show.
Season 4 Premiere shows part of it if I remember correctly
@@LunarEchlipse Yeah. I remember that WarpOut was nearly done then it aired, but he changed some scenes to make them more accurate to this episode. Mad respect for that!
Before this we've only had like a 1 minute backstory at the start of the first episode + conclusion in the first 2 episodes.
@@LunarEchlipse wait really?? :0
I’m off to go watch it- I might have forgotten about that tbh
@@kasloth994 I don't remember him changing anything. I do remember the video he put out showing his animatic, and the scene from the ep side-by side, and they very nearly matching for quite a bit.
this animation is actually based on the canon story of the two regal sisters!
the white pony is celestia, she raises the sun, luna is her sister and she raises the moon. if you watch the first two episodes of mlp you'll get a better understanding, but luna became nightmare moon after being overshadowed by her sister, they fought and the only solution celestia could find was banishing her to the moon. i really recommend you give mlp a try, the first two seasons might be a bit of a hard watch but from season 3 to 9 there's incredible world building/character development and a lot of interesting lore
What's even more astonishing about this animation is that it was created by a SINGLE person over the course of nearly 3 years.
This animation is by far the most well-known/admired one within the fandom, the level of dedication and care put into is undeniable.
If you would like another similar, well created animation that uses another fan-made MLP song, I suggest The Moon Rises, created by a different person, but using the perspective of the second sister, Luna, as she falls into her dark despair.
techhnically it was three people if you include the background artists
From your commentary, I'm not sure if you were made aware that this is a fan-made animation, there was no studio of big team of professionals working on it. It was made entirely by a small handful of people, drawn frame-by-frame by a single person who worked on it for two years. There was no company budget behind this masterpiece, only time, dedication and a whole lot of passion.
The guy in the striped shirt told how emotional he felt yet didn't cry at all. The one in the red shirt didn't say much about how he felt yet cried. 2 very different people.
If you do lullaby of a princess you should do the moon rises as well
This is pretty much agreed on as the Magnum Opus for the MLP fan community, and for good reason. So powerful, even without knowing the story behind the events and already being attached to the characters.
And yes, the next fan work needs to be The Moon Rises, a companion sing to this one showing the events leading up to this from the other sister's perspective. Both songs were made by the same brother/sister team, Ponyphonic, though animated by different people and the version used in the Moon Rises animation is a cover of the song done bu Ellie Monty.
The Moon Rises I believe was created using Toon Boom and it gave fans a nice preview oh how the MLP movie might look because it was still in production and no previews had come out yet. While I am not a fan of the movie itself, the best part was the animation.
Lullaby for a princess is ideed a beautiful fan-work of the mlp fandom, astonishing execution
THE MOON RISES BETTER
Even Non Bronies love this video, it's that epic and the story is very easy to follow here. The song is original too. I think one of the biggest reasons why the Brony Community grew so quickly was the amazing original music (and PMVs aka Pony Music Videos) that came from it.
Omg all those childhood memories they're all unlocking one by one 😭
Gotta mention this, one person animated this whole thing :)
YES!!! It blows my mind everytime
Whaat!?
Considering this is a fan song, the quality level of this production when comparing it to the official songs really does show how much the MLP fandom loved the show.
Next up, The Moon Rises, very much a sister song to this!
You guys being willing to branch out and react to such a breadth of thigs you have no prior reference to is admirable.
Bless you both,
I cannot wait to see your future works.
Wait till you find out it was all hand drawn!!
Never watched the ponies, probably never will cause it's not my kind of show, but this, THIS video almost made me want to watch a season or two
FWIW... I heard about the show while it was still new. Went to watch so I could rag on it with SOME knowledge of what it was like. The song, Super Speedy Cider Squeezie 6000 roped me in. They KNEW what they were doing musicwise.
@@ShujinTribble something similar happened to me, I was never really into it but one day I was reading a fic and I had finished it so I decided to see what else the author had wrote, I saw it was my little pony and decided to give it a try. It got me roped in so to get more context I decided to watch some of the show, and I didn’t stop
So, in early 2012 Ponyphonic creates and sings the song "The Moon rises". which tells the story of Luna's decent into jealousy and madness due to her sister's popularity over-shadowing hers. Became hugely popular due to his amazing vocals and great lyrics and production.
later that year he decides to create a sequel to that, telling the same story, but from Celestia's perspective. he teamed up with Christina Ellis to do the vocals, and they create Lullaby for a princess. it becomes one of the most popular songs in the entire fandom.
bit later Warpout decides to create an animated version of Lullaby. takes two to three years to create. it finally does come out and you can see the results.
After this animation comes out, Ponyphonic releases a remake of The Moon Rises, this one being an extended version with female vocals by Kristen Calvin.
a few years after that DuoCartoonists create an animated version of The Moon Rises using a cover of the extended version done by Elly Monty.
EILEMONTY VERSION BETTER
It may be a fan animation, but the story for this is actually taken from a storybook in the first few minutes of the very first episode of MLP: Friendship is Magic, you'll probably recognize immediately if you ever watch the first two episodes (It's a two-parter). But yeah, ""The Moon Rises" is another great fanmade animation, from the sister Luna's perspective before their big battle.
In the show the big sister only goes by "Princess", as Equestria (Their land) was originally a Diarchy (Two main rulers), the Big Sister and the Little Sister, so she'd be against taking the title of "Queen."
Honestly surprised "you'll play your part" wasn't one of the songs you've watched yet. One of the best songs in the show. There's also "Luna's Future", and "the magic inside".
You'll play your part just has one of the best Harmonys out of all the songs, and one solo line that is just satisfying to hear
Luna's Future is one of the shortest songs.. But damn the vocals hit hard. Aloma Steele delivers with this one.
The magic inside is also one of the best songs in mlp. And it's sung by Lena Hall.
Children of the Night by Duo Cartoonists is another great fan animation for mlp that I think you guys would like and admire. They also animated the Moon Rises which is written by the same person who did the song for this video. The videos/songs compliment each other pretty well as they're pretty canon compliant.
Also I hope that if you guys ever start the series together that you'll enjoy it. First couple are great but if you ever get to the ones after it I think you'll come to appreciate the vibe of the show a lot. I'm glad you like what you've seen thus far and hope you can enjoy anything else. All the best!
To clarify:
*Luna* is the sister in control of the moon (the literal celestial body, yes) and dreams, which she can also manipulate. In her youth she was encapsulated by hatred and jealousy as the majorly agricultural and day-living pony populous spent their time admiring her older sister *Celestia* who is the crowned ruler and controls the beloved day through the sun, and shunning the unwelcoming night. Celestia is too young to comprehend how Luna feels in her shadow, and fails to react to how an evil spirit called "Nightmare Moon" (who needs to be invited into a hosts body like a parasite in order to take over their consciousness) is slowly gaining her vulnerable younger sister's trust. By the time Celestia comes to this realization Luna has already let Nightmare moon in and is no longer truly herself, but a warped consciousness instead. They fight, and because of Nightmare Moon's influence Celestia loses the initial battle. She is seen crashing into a building in which there is a display holding the "Elements of Harmony" crystal artifacts that hold insane levels of energy. Celestia, in distress, accesses their power in order to defeat her sister. (This sudden influx of power even warps the natural state of her body, changing her hair from natural pink-->constantly flowing, almost unaffected by gravity, pastel rainbow). With the help of these artifacts she *seals her sister and the evil spirit within the moon* and it is later clarified that it will take 1000 moons/years for the seal to be broken. Celestia and Luna are alicorns (ponies who have wings and horns) which is considered a royal/powerful class of ponies that are granted immortality or an elongated life span, as well as powers strong enough to move celestial bodies. Therefore, Celestia is left to rule Equestria, the major pony kingdom, alone and shoulders the burden of maintaining the balance between night and day, sun and moon, that she and her sister would've had to.
Albeit, it was Celestia's oversight and naiveness that caused this, she had to banish her sister because Luna, warped by the evil within her, would've refused to lower the moon to make way for the sun and willed for the night to last forever. Biology wise (which applies to this fantasy world) this would have caused famine, disease and overall world-wide tragedy. So Celestia did the right thing in regards to her kingdom, but that doesn't erase the guilt.
This show was my childhood and it is nice to see it get some more recognition now, too. As much as this was a kids show, the world-building was so good that it got a very creative fandom hooked and many of us may never let it go. This fandom created animations like Lullaby for a Princess and expanded upon an already beautiful narritive so well that it never ceases to amaze those who went into MLP related fan-content expecting a regular kids show :D
I agree with a few of the comments that recommended you guys watch *"The Moon Rises"* it is another animation project that shows Luna's perspective before the fight went down. Another top-quality piece of fanwork. (by PonyPreservation)
1 small correction, a "moon" is about a month, not a year.
@@smith22041 ah, nice! thanks for the comment :>
In MLP moons is definitely used as a measurement of time that doesn’t equate to 1 month, but it’s not quite a year, I think it’s closer to 10 months iirc.
@@matrixster6238 It's whatever the writer wants it to be at the time.
That's the video script yes, because in the show Nightmare Moon is just her dark side.
The moon rises is beautiful, and it’s from the perspective of the other sister. I highly suggest watching that one too
Luna. Eeeekkkk
Also, I definitely recommend "The Moon Rises" as another great fan animation, basically Luna's perspective on this event. And for official songs from the show, "You'll Play Your Part" and "True True Friend" are fantastic!
When I was younger, this song would make me sob my ass off. I was a very empathetic child, so just thinking about people being hurt in any way would break me.
I mean, imagine how guilty she must have felt. Imagine having to do that to your little sister, imagine having to deal with all that; especially to someone who you’ve been with since they were a baby. Someone you took care of. It hurt so much to even think about it. Even now, I still feel myself tearing up. It just brings up so many emotions; old and new.
You learn the lore between the two sisters right when you start watching the show, it's amazing how a single scene from the pilot episode inspired people to create this beautiful animation and song
Now you definitely need to see The Moon Rises! Both songs and animations are the greatest within the MLP community! 😁
There's a second one from the sister's point of view called "The Moon Rises" if you wanna see it
The fact this animation is still finding new people is just another testament of how good the fandom of mlp
‘The moon rises’ is the sister’s counterpart before these events happened! You should hear it!
The fact that this is hand animated still shocks me 8 years later
The respect, enthusiasm and passion 'WarpOut' has for this video, cannot be over-empathized. It is the Hallmark 'Fan-Made' video of the entire MLP franchise, and for damned good reason.
If only our current Creators of Animation had 1/2 this drive, and respect for the original story of their respective genres?!
For rhe line "with your tired eyes, and my lullabies", i honestly used to think it said " with your tired eyes, and my low goodbyes" but i still like to think thats what dhe said because it brings more impact for me personally.
"The Moon Rises" is another great one! It's the same story, but it's Princess Luna's point of view!
The Moon Rises tells Luna’s side (the darker sister). There is also Children Of The Night which shows Luna’s caring and compassionate side while telling a haunting story of disabilities and differences
Princess Luna isn't dead, she is just trapped in the moon. Taking a really long nap is all.
A Legendary animation with beautiful vocals. Lullaby for a princess is truly unforgettable.
THE MOON RISES MOSTLY MEMORIAL.
Lullaby for a Princess is a fan animation/song of the mythology/history of the MLP world, the story of two magic sisters who control the sun and the moon. The first episode opens with the main character reading a summary of it in a history book. And yeah, the fandom tended to be very sympathetic to the moon princess and that's reflected in the video; it isn't really clear in the show how much blame the sun princess has for what happened.
IT'S LUNA TO YOU! MOON RISES BETTER.
The MLP fandom is truly amazing with how much talent and effort and genuine love goes into the various fanworks. Animations, songs, analysis videos, etc. You definitely picked a good one to react to. Celestia and Luna's backstory is so tragic.
This song and ‘The Moon Rises’ both serve as a fanmade backstory/prologue to the first 2 episodes of the FiM series. They are accurate enough to what actually went down to essentially be honorarily considered canon by the fanbase
Every once and a while I check if any more people have reacted to this gem of a video. I'm glad more people are discovering it 😊
Many others here have been suggesting "The Moon Rises" as the natural counterpart to this song - and they aren't wrong. It also has some cool animation.
But if you REALLY want a song - well, more of a ballad, really - chronicling the tale of the two pony sisters, please, please, _please_ take a look at "Moonrise"
I recommend the lyric video version, because there is NO way youTube captions are going to keep up with the intricate vocals on that one. Also, prepare to get emotional again.
Moonrise and Fall of an Empire are two of the best MLP fan creations out there.
I delve a little bit into MLP a couple years ago, and one very important thing of the lore, is that Celestia (the one who sang in Lullaby for a Princess), after banishing her younger sister (Luna) to the moon, was tasked with raising both the Sun and Moon every night for 1,000 years. That means in the series’ canon, every day and every night, for 1,000 years, Celestia was confronted with a cold reminder that she herself sent her sister away, and it’s a spell that can’t be undone until that time limit passes, every time she’d raise or lower the moon and see her sister’s silhouette…The animation even takes this a bit further, because Celestia’s mane was only pink at first, but after banishing Luna, her mane is multicolored, which is another painful reminder every time she looks in a reflective surface, that she did this to her sister.
Luna’s duties became her burdens, and while not canon, a song like this could give us a glimpse at the guilt Celestia would feel for doing this. The song’s lyrics are self-reassurance that THIS was the right choice and all that could be done, and honestly if one got into a fight with a sibling that resulted in the latter getting locked up, you could wonder if there was anything you could do to get a different outcome. The vocals are so chilling, and in tandem with the animation, you can tell a lot of love was put into this. Still makes me tear up.
Princess Nightmare Moon eeeekkkk
The empty bed at the end makes me sob 😅 its such a powerful song, my god
The song does a pretty good job of explaining the story of the two sisters, but I'll explain in more detail.
The Alicorn Sisters Celestia and Luna rule over the kingdom of Equestria and are tasked with raising and setting the sun and moon respectively each day. The sun and moon don't move on their own, they do it manually each day using their magic, which you see Celestia doing in the video.
As she presides over the day, Celestia the older sister received all the praise, glory and love from their people. Meanwhile the younger sister of the moon, Luna, only saw how people turned away from her beautiful night, shunning what she has to offer the world by sleeping through it.
Over time her hatred and resentment built until she finally reached her breaking point. If the ponies of Equestria would not love her night as they did her sister's day, then the night would reign alone for all eternity. She gave in to the hatred and transformed into Nightmare Moon, attempting to kill her sister and shroud the land in darkness forever.
Celestia could not allow this to happen, and with tears in her eyes she used powerful relics called the Elements of Harmony to seal her sister within the moon. From then on, she took over Luna's duty of raising and setting the moon each day.
Luna, in the form of Nightmare Moon, was sealed within the moon for 1000 years.
The first episode, which is actually 2 episodes, is about her escape from the moon and her second attempt to bring eternal night. The main cast, named the Mane Six, defeat her with the Elements of Harmony and this time they purge the twisted magic that warped her mind so far, freeing Princess Luna to return to her sister and her rightful place at her side.
One I recommend reacting to is "My Past Is Not Today"
This beautifully tells the backstory of the show. It's totally fan-made, which tells you how much we fans love the show. I gave this a like because I hope you'll watch it too. One of the earlier song reactions is at 2.9K, I hope it passes 3K soon!
I got severe PTSD from this lovely animation. Onions Every Single Time I Hear It! DX
Fan songs are only that much sadder than the actual show's saddest moments...
I’m not a big of mlp but when I saw this, I was INCREDIBLY impressed!
They really are killing it with the emotions, like, I literally cried when I first watched A Lullaby for a Princess
FORGOT THE MOON RISES EXIST DON'T YOU?
When it comes to animated songs, this and the counterpart to this animation are the fandoms magnum opus. I have not encountered anything that can top this in the time I've been in the fandom. There are fan works in other fields that are on equal footing but when it comes to animated songs this is the best you're going to find.
I recommend watching the moon rises from lunas perspective, and also Luna's cover of children of the night.
when i watched it for the first time, and she used the elements of harmony I got major goosebumps. amazing video.
oh wow! What a surprise! I remember when this animation first came out
Man I used to cry to this in middle school 😂
The moon rises is another good fan made song from My little Pony
THIS MUSIC VIDEO MAKES ME CRY 😭😭
It's crazy to think that this song and animation is based on a bit of lore that was briefly spoken in the first minute of the first episode.
From what I remember, work on this animation started somewhere between airing of the first and second season (feel free to correct me, It's been so many years) . Few years later we've got an episode that gave us a little bit more insight about this story when most of this animation was done. I remember WarpOut mentioning that when this episode aired, he changed some scenes to make them more accurate to the episode that aired at the time, despite him being almost done! What a mad lad!
Whenever I end up hearing this song, it gives me shivers and at times almost makes me cry. I can relate to how this relationship is like and messing up and missing your sibling. My older sibling amd I are very very close and went through a lot together. And sometimes we get into fights but we make up now. But when they lived far away from me for a time, all I wanted was them back with me. We weren't living in the best situation and they had to be taken away for their own safety and I missed them so much that I would cry myself to sleep. My sibling is my best friend hands down. And this video and song reminds me of the time when I had to spend a long time away from them.
When I was a kid I cried my eyes out watching lullabay for a princess :^]
FORGOT THE MOON RISES EXIST DON'T YOU?
@@PrincessTwivineSparkle7805 when I was a kid I didn't know it existed, so I didn't watch it until my late teens and at that time it was hard to make me cry, so Moon Rises didn't move me that much
The Moon Rises is the other must watch after Lullaby for a Princess. It's similarly amazing music and insane animation, and it is it same story but from the other sister's perspective
The fan base of MLP is on another level when it comes to talent. LOTS of highly talented VA's, artists, musicians, singers.
DEFINITELY give The Moon Rises a watch after this.
Some of the top songs:
Discord
Rainbow Factory, Pegasus Device, and Awoken (All three of these involve the same topic
Anthropology
Join the Herd
Snowdrop
Definitely one of best animations. I can agree everytime I watched it I instantly goes in tears cause its absolutely amazing ❤
My personal favorite fan-content in all of MLP is the "Count of Monte Cristo" series by Ink Potts. It's just animatics but damned if they aren't the most high-quality animatics I have ever seen, topping most animations imo.
Basically, if you look in the description of the video, it would tell you about the story, but basically is the older sister Celestia had to banish her younger sister Luna to the moon, for about 1000 years, because Luna let a corruption take over her mind, to take revenge and make the world into a forever night. Because she felt a neglected by her sister and the the ponies, so Celestia had to banish sister,(her only family member) for the safety of the creatures and ponies that live in the Equestria the country that this takes place in.
Now I want them to see a fight between Twi and Tirek :D
Luna is sealed in the moon.
Celestia is making the moon set at the end of the night.
She's still tucking her in.
Loved your reaction to this! If you want the other side of the story, try out "The Moon Rises" - another fan song written by Ponyphonic - the same guy who wrote the lyrics to this song. It's beautifully animated and sung too.
Eilemonty's version better.
@@PrincessCozyGlow0957 dude, the animated version of "The Moon Rises" *is* sung by Eilemonty.
I just realize even without one sided love from parent . Big sis and lil sis always have conflict even without parents
Absolute classic
I remember seeing leaks and rough animations of the fight
What's crazy is that the events depicted here are all but canon to the show.
Yeah, "The Moon Rises" is a must watch as well. You'll get the other side of the story.
Aaaaand there it is, I knew this would happen
FINALLY
I've been waiting for this
Godsssss I wish they had a bit of context beforehand- but I dunno, might mess with having a genuine reaction
It lacks the smooth and glorious animation, but I'd suggest either Jyc Row's songs, if you're interested in this kind of slow, orchestral magnificence, or PrinceWhateverer if you're interested in metal. Personally, I'd suggest you go watch the four videos in Prince's "Destabilize" series; it's a story told through music, and it's amazing.
Also in case no one else mentioned this already...THIS ANIMATION TOOK TWO WHOLE YEARS TO MAKE! THAT'S WHY ITS SO INSANELY GOOD LOOKING!
for reference Luna is not dead, but sealed in the moon for 1000 years hense Celestia's line "May these thousand winters swiftly pass i pray"
4:51 The one with the Sun symbol is Celestia, and the one with the Moon is Luna.
If you think this is sad, can you imagine what it's doing to ME! I bawl like a baby every time I hear and see this video! I know this story inside and out. In the show, we see in quite a few episodes that Luna (the dark pony) feels extremely guilty about what she did when she turned evil (called herself Nightmare Moon), to the point where she punishes herself for it all the time. The guilt is very strong in this one! But, sometimes, in a few episodes, there are only hints that Celestia (the white pony) feels the same kind of guilt. However, she is so happy that she lets it go when Luna is freed from her evil form. Luna needs a lot of help overcoming her own guilt, she's just wired different than her sister.
But that's all I'm gonna say, just a few insights on these two very important pony princesses.
Even after all this years Lulluby for the Princess still make me cry a bit.
I recomended you guys to react The Moon rises
What in my opinion are also amazing songs in Mlp Movie: Rainbow Rocks.
The songs of the Antagonists in that Movie( Let's have a battle;Under our Spell and Welcome to the show) were rly good.
Nah if they’re reacting to fan works then they need to start to watch the show. Speaking of fan works, there’s so much to go through. From the Anthology series, the PMV’s, the “MLP meets” series, and so much more, it’s a never ending rabbit hole.
You are just starting an amazing adventure, mlp songs are awesome.
Please watch "the Moon Rises" now as this goes in tandem with "Lulaby for a princess" :3
This is without a joke, the best time for that like goal to get hit because you have just watch an artist’s interpretation of what is told to the audience in the very first scene of the first episode of this show.
I really hope you hit the like goal because it would be amazing to see your reactions to that scene after you’ve watched this animation.
Woah seeing this after 10 year bring back childhood memories plus I feel old 😅
Crazy thing is, the animator who made this short worked on this for YEARS pretty much all by themselves, released this to universal acclaim among the fandom, and then...hasn't done anything since, they just kinda vanished.
There is actually a part in MLP that they had switched their power (like Luna can now control the sun) and then realized how although controling the moon sounds so lame and that ponies didn't acknowledge her, being able to control the and has a lot of people's expectations were just as bad as hers. 😅 They made up and Luna finally learned that she was not the only one in pain
I’m shocked people are still discovering these videos now so long after the show ended.
Finally getting to this is such a good feeling
