Even when I was a kid it was always weird to me how Twilight was just able to walk into a random high school without enrolling or anything and nobody cared
wow nice channel it'd be a shame if somebody ATE it
@@EffMinus nom nom nom thank uu
It tells a lot about THE WORLD C.H.S. operates (more specifically, the county/province of Crystal City that Canterlot Town also belongs); as it seems there is a unified Education Council [referenced by Abacus Cinch in Friendship Games] that operates above the goverment/police/military [similar to how their equivalent in Equestria can overrule Princess Celestia].
. Since Sci!Twi could move from Crystal Prep to C.H.S. without any probkems, it is implied that Princess Twilight simply took her place (choosing were to take classes between the two institutions freely).
-> There may be an investigation at the end of the year if both Principal Celestia & Cinch presented academic results for the last semester with duplicate students (assuming a bureocratic error or identity mistake, rather than an extraplanar invasion by dopplegangers).

writers were mentally in the 80’s lol
When you realise this video is longer than the actual movie :
No podemos decir que no le metio empeño, ahora toca queblo haga con todos los especiales
That just shows the effort.
Furthermore, the video is not even just about the movie. Did you at least see the video?

you know you're legally obligated to do the other 3 movies now right?
and the specials 💀💀💀💀 AND THE SHORTS 💀💀💀💀💀💀 AND THE OTHER COMICS AND BOOKS 🥲😭😭
I’m sure He’ll get to them eventually. This was quite a long video for one movie, but also analyzing other bits of media related to the film, etc takes a long time to distill down to a concise script for a review/analysis.
@@EffMinus Do yourself a favor.
Ignore the I.D.W. comics (but not the Books & Novels) of FiM, EQG & "G5".
@@adolfodef yeah the EQG comics don’t really add much, especially the Fall of Sunset Shimmer prequel comic

Anyone else notice, how Sunset's magic is blue in the Equestria girls movie,but in the special episode where she come through the portal to talk to twilight or something, when she uses her magic it's red?
I honestly thought it was starlight when I was 6 bc I was dumb and I didn't understand timelines 💀
if anything, you’d imagine it’d be the other way around lol
@@EffMinus haha
They tend to use a green-ish magic to represent "evil" characters (Chrysalis, Sunset Shimmer, general Dark Magic, Inspiration Manifestation, Starlight Glimmer, Dazzlings, etc.) so that's probably why they changed it. I feel like most Unicorn's magic color matches their eyes, though, so that's probably why she had that color of magic to begin with. Shining Armor is one of the few noticeable exceptions having a different magic color than eye color, and it's clear they only gave him purple magic to match Twilight's, which seems unnecessary in hindsight. Also Starlight's magic matches her hair instead of eyes, but I suspect they originally incorporated green into her design to go along with the "evil green" magic thing; though it's more like a turquoise.
It’s because most unicorn magic either matches the eyes or the cutie-mark. The color of Sunset’s magic just switched from her eye color to her cutie-mark color for whatever reason. I personally prefer her magic being the same as her eye color since it pops more but I guess it’s to cause less confusion between her and starlight glimmer since they meet later on???
Also not sure if someone mentioned this, but it's implied that twilight is an adult. The equestria girls and students are high schoolers. Twilight essentially fell for a teenage boy in the human universe😭. This is exactly why they should've set it in a combined high school and college so that way they could still have the crusaders in the same building, and the main characters don't have to be teenagers.
And Sunset is even older
i should've brought that up LOL. i'll definitely have to in the Rainbow Rocks video!
@@savilaerculano9031 Oh gosh yeah😭. She won the fall princess thing three years in a row.
@@EffMinus Haha can't wait for the next vid!
Yes, I’ve seen this brought up before, yet no one says anything when it comes to sciset, the ship between Sci-Twi and Sunset, despite it having the same issue. In fact, it’s the most popular ship in the fandom (to the point where the shippers are rude to people over it) and even the producer ships it 😬 Wish more people at least questioned it tbh
btw, the veggie burger scene, Twi only picks it up because Fluttershy does, shes just copying her to seem normal. Shes just lucky Flutters is a Veggie

yea. It was funny because I really got curious why apples were in a salad and I lowkey wanted it as a child because I'm not vegan but Im not a fan of meat so fruits and veggies looked so good and made me hungry
when i was younger and even still today i wonder how twilight got into a school without enrolling and how sunset shimmer literally tortured the students basically and never got in trouble for anything
Or how Twilight went in after in like less than a day yet somehow Sunset has three photos of her on the wall 💀💀💀
At this point I thinks sunset might be a stalker but that's just a theory however it does not make sense on how twilight could just enter a school and be considered a student like imagine a criminal entering the school and Celestia just let's it slide ???
I think that maybe it would slide if the school and it's facilities were available for public use after school, so maybe it would work if the movie's events occured during the after school hours. Maybe while twilight waits for the school day to end on the first day, she ventures off and meets a new friend who goes to cantorlot high and instead of twilight being fall-formal queen, this new friend is the candidate instead.
I assumed that was the case intially, but afterwards I was proven wrong
Or how about her commeting mass genocide 0_o
Nothing says 'brief' than an hour long video

I have a gripe on your gripe. Spike is a baby dragon...its actually less weird for him to have a crush on young rarity than for him to have a crush on our adult Rarity lol.
I have a theory about the Equestria Girls world. The events were supposed to be a mirror image of My Little Pony, with Twilight transferring to Equestria High as a honor student or something. However, due to Sunset Shimmer infiltrating the human world, the timeline got messed up. This is why Twilight doesn't appear until the last few movies. Of course, not everyone has to agree with my theory.
That’s a pretty good theory imho
I honestly wouldn't mind at all if you made more hour-long videos in the future, this was really entertaining and nostalgic lol. I watched the EG movies when I was too young to question all the stupidity so watching this had me laughing so hard!
that is very uplifting to hear :)

yeah enjoy ed these movies when I was a kid, but I just can’t help poke fun at the flaws this movie has. This was a funny video you’ve made
"And I totally won't go into a bunch of needless details"
Runtime: 1:21:36
Suure...
clearly the only sensible explanation is that equastria girls is just a fanfic written by Lyra
Oh the pony who sits like a human
That… actually makes a lot of sense
When I think back to the main series, ponies don't always stick with ponified terms like mare and filly. They ocasionally called each other girls or ladies. That kinda makes Equestria 'Girls' ambiguous'. It didn't even need to be humans and still keep the title.
"Oh 'girls', can't you see? When I was a little filly and the sun was going down"
"You 'girls' are the apple of my eye"
"He will treat me like a 'lady', tonight at the gala"
Shut up all of you!!!!!!!

Personally, I adore equestria girls. I cant pinpoint exactly why, it looks like smthing I'd hate but watching all the shorts just kept me laughing forever and the movies are some of my favourite movies of all time ( they don't have much competition ). The music's also insane at times. In fact for the last few days, my head has been nothing but shake your tail.
Equestria girls has a whole host of issues and if people don't like or or don't consider it canon, that's fair and they're opinion, but I'll continue enjoying it
Also sunset shimmer appears in the background of the final episode of FIM while twilight is singing, pretty sure that suggests canonicity
Same I love eg! I get why people don’t like it but I don’t at the same time. It’s so good
@@ShyPineapple777 love seeing EQG positivity
@@teriso1793 yeppp!! 🥰
@@ShyPineapple777personally it's just not bad or not good because look at the 7 minute shorts like 1/3 of the shorts is basically parts of an episode that they failed into like an hour-long special with no intro except for the beginning
@@TheFosterAmiYumiFan um I don’t think I understand. They all seem pretty good to me!
On a side note, Season 3 was special as it marked the "end" of the original conception of the show with Twilight fullfilling destiny. You could quite literally follow it up with the last problem and nothing major would change (To be more specific, the show probably would have been around 5 seasons with all of the characters fullfiling their destiny in a more fleshed out way, but creative differences with Lauren Faust meant that she was not able to do that, and so the left over team had to rush her vision out the door to make way for the "new normal" of pony.). On a corporate level, S4-9 and EQG were the "post 65 episode intital broadcast package" run of the show, and was quite literally designed to be ran into the ground at that point. It was completely divorced from the original conception of the show, and only made strides to develope the characters and lore out of obligation to the type of cartoon it was designed to be originally. They would have cancelled it much sooner if the money train had dried up. We are godamn lucky with how much we got.
Any time you here Lauren, or another creator complement these continuations, its basically "I would NEVER have done that, and feel sick having to see it, but I have solidarity with my fellow creatives and am not going to trash talk what they had to make. Also I have a gag order and legally cannot talk trash about it."
“The Last Problem” was the final episode where it took place in the future where Twilight Sparkle and Spike were full grown, except Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity and Pinkie Pie were the same, but different outfits. And that’s were the series finale took place in the future with some time traveling elements.
School librarians can be teachers too. In my country they are usually teaching basic stuff about libraries, and talk about the history of books like Gutenberg. But they also can teach other stuff (people can have multiple degrees/jobs) but the latter is not a requirement. One of the school librarians I knew was also the music and Art teacher.
Hát igen, a tanárhiány xD
I enjoyed this video a lot! Equestria Girls is one of those things where picking apart it's plot holes is so much fun, because it's so silly in a charming way. And I always love hearing about the differences between movies and junior novelisations
I went on a Equestria Girls binge with my little sister a few days ago, so the both of us can relive our pony phase. We both LOVE it so much no matter the lore jank. Sunset has been my obsession for the past few days, she's literally the best. I friggin love my anger issues girlie. My favorite movie from the whole thing is Rainbow Rocks. It's one of the best 😩
Tbh the idea that Sunset made elementary school turned freshmen kids into her minions is too funny that I headcanon it lol
Title: A Brief Retrospective of Equestria Girls (2013)
Duration: 1:21:36
Now I wonder how long an actual retrospective is.
Where the heck is the other sunset shimmer though? By the world’s logic, there should be 2
There was a special planned at the end of EQG's life addressing that same question, but sadly it never saw the light of day 😢
@@greenstarlover1is there anything of it?
@@ILoveHusk not that I'm aware of.
On the topic of those animated shorts that take place during the first movie but were released years after, everything is a bit off because they were animated by Boulder Media instead of DHX Vancouver like nearly everything else G4-related. Boulder went on to do the Rainbow Roadtrip special, the Pony Life series and the A New Generation film as well. I'm sure they were using the same puppets and tools as DHX were for the shorts, but their process being different is going to be noticeable in the end product I imagine. Or maybe they did use a different animation program. I'm not too sure; the lighting is noticeably different in their shorts, though.
Edit: Also, I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, but the joke at 54:30 actually does work pretty well since saying "it was nothing" is a common response to being thanked. The joke being it has two meanings in that instance. It's not really explaining the joke, it's expanding on it. Apologies if you already knew that and your joke was just going over my head or something.
it was nothing
I have to give some serious props to the quality and care you put into this video. A long form analysis with a good summary with additional info I didn't even know of.
Great job!
much appreciated, man! thanks!
Still no ending to EG
That’s live the story unfinished
Theory for the age problem:
So basically Canterlot high is a junior and senior high school combined, grades 7-12 (this is common in parts of Canada), snips and snails are in grade 8 during the movie and were in grade 7 last year so they could still be around to help sunset, but you might be thinking what about Cloudsdale junior high well I’m thinking maybe RD and Fluttershy used to live in Cloudsdale when they were in junior high but they moved to Canterlot kind of like in the pony world they moved to ponyville
This still doesn’t answer why any of them are in high school when their pony equivalents are young adults though…
Loved this, was giggling the whole time.. other issues with the age debacle: Celestia is over 1,000 years in the pony realm, is principal Celestia also over 1,000 years old? And bigger issue - Sunset and Twilight were adults in the pony world, then they go on to date (well, “date” in Twilight’s case) Flash Sentry in the human world. Flash Sentry is a teenager 🚨
My question is why their names are fluttershy, rarity, rainbow dash, applejack, etcetc
I guess pony logic and the fact they're all pink and green colored humans also doesn't make sense, but still
Real life human names & surnames also have meanings.
-> In context, the world of EQG is not as weird as you may think.
46:21 I'm thinking that she was not trying to break the portal, but the border of the portal, kinda like a nether portal in minecraft, if one block of obsidian is gone, the portal will disappear too
could be, i was also thinking if like, what if she broke the border and the portal seeped through infinitely where it's broken lol
As an American high schooler, I can *(probably)* comment on your high school assumptions.
1) While lots of kids can be clique-y, we don't really sit in super confined spots. We roam around the school or sit with groups of friends. (Hell, I haven't sat in an actual cafeteria since 5th grade.)
2) Many people, myself included, do not spend lunch in one spot. It's not uncommon for people to wander to the library or gym.
3) Classes are about 2 hours while lunch is 40 minutes.
4) Librarians may be able to substitute, but I don't know that any in my particular school/city do.
5) Our library is open as long as staff is there I'm pretty sure, I know that it's open for hours after school ends and maybe a little later than when clubs or activities end. Though, I doubt it's open until the night...
6) There are morning periods before school starts as well as a short break early in the day, Rainbow Dash could have very well been playing soccer during one of those times.
7) You're right about the whole prom being on Saturday thing! Our homecoming dance and winter formal were on Saturdays as well, and Seniors who went in Junior year know that prom is on a Saturday.
8) Schools are open until 4:30-ish for parents and students to enter, and schools usually end at 3:30. In this time, there are clubs, activities, and the library is open.
9) There is supposed to be a fall formal prince if there is a princess... but I don't think there's a fall formal prince *or* princess at all. At least, not here. Homecoming and prom have kings and queens, and HOCO has a prince and princess as well.
10) Students help set up events and make decorations a lot of the time, so that fake crown could be something some students made.
11) Students may bring either students from other schools, students from their own shool, or somebody who isn't even in school as a "date" to HOCO or prom. Twilight may have been nominated by students that way, and simply had one of her friends take her as a "date."
Overall, the only truly abnormal thing I see in this high school is that we never see them in class. /)!bro hoof!(\
Spike diving onto the floor has got to be the funniest thing about this movie that I never noticed😭
for the bell scene where it’s speculated that classes are a little over 2 mins, they probably have a something like this: when the first bell rings it’s the warning bell, warning students to get to class. when the second bells rings, that’s the tardy bell. the bells system is something my school has so that’s probably something their school has too.
Anyone notice that the idea of Rainbow using a sonic rainboom in an overall narrow corridor could be dangerous to others around her? Gee I wonder why she didn't rainboom hmmmm
what I wanna know is would things have worked better if they were in a community college or some kind of college rather than high school? If it was a college it could be one that also has high schoolers or those classes for college credit in order to get through faster and than have better chances of success etc. Anyway that would nearly eliminate the school dances but I feel like timelines and the various things could have been better.
Schools can be very different in other countries, like high school, middle school, and elementary school are all in the same building, yearbooks aren't a thing, teachers have jobs in many places at a time, etc. So it's not like it's that crucial that EqG got some stuff that way. That is weird however if EqG world is a replica of someplace in the US and is supposed to be that way, but we don't know for sure.
i just randomly found and watched a one and half hour of brutally detailed review on my favourite childhood movie and its funny as heck
also thankyou for the wonderful insights it def made me miss the show more
that's encouraging to hear lol, thanks
Equestria Girls was my introduction to MLP and the absolute brain rotting yummy treat to me as a little girl growing up in the 2010's. I still prefer it over the original show to be honest even with all its wrongs!
It's kinda like yu gi oh, the main characters are highschool students but they barely study or even spend time there
tbh playing children card games is more important than studying like a great best duelist said "believe in the heart of the cards"
Did you notice in Friendship Games where Sunset's hair colors are altered in a natural real-world blonde haired human-esque figure?
According to the wiki they wanted to tone her color intensity down a bit with the design of her new outfit !
@rxxalyz3071 Most likely, they want her to become more or like a real-world natural blonde, human like figure.
59:20 The sister of Babs Seed was referenced in the show, but her name & looks were explicitly left [blank]/[missing] in the script (to avoid the layout artists to generate one for her).
. She was "reserved" for a future writer, the same way it was done with [Applejack's Parents] Pear Butter & Bright Macintosh; or [Trixie's Father]; but never used.
-> Babs Seed's older sister still has no defined [Name] or [Color Design] attached to her (besides being an earth pony mare of dark terrain tones).
Same thing happens for Trixie's Mother (also with a flower_themed cutiemark), as it is merely a fanmade plug by the same fanfic/comic IDW producer.
I don't know if anyone else commented about this but I believe Cloudsdale Junior High is named after a town called Cloudsdale. I know in my town we have a university, high school, and a middle school named after the town 😅
Well, yeah, obviously.
My point was that Cloudsdale in the show is home to pegasi and ONLY pegasi. RD and Fluttershy are obviously pegasi. Therefore, it stands to reason that they live(d) in Cloudsdale in the show. However, how would you translate a person being a pegasus in the human world?
@@EffMinus Ohh I understand. So, the point you made of races being segregated makes more sense with the different types of ponies. Makes me wonder if that's why we don't see any other creatures like yaks, changelings, etc. in Equestria Girls
I especially love the brevity of this analysis! Being concise is a daunting task, so I admire your work here
43:40 Vice Principal Luna took the Crown out of the school (likely to her house, but possibly somewhere else).
|
. Sunset Shimmer can FEEL magic [this is a Psychic Ability, like Pinkie's Premonition or Fluttershy's Stare]; this is how she could locate Twilight's Room in the Crystal Castle & knew the crown was taken out of the school building & moving fast (by car).
-> Even if she knew it was Luna, following her & stealing it again would be too risky.
Sunset's extrasensorial perception confirmed that Luna brought the crown at Friday Night AFTER everyone voted for the Princess of the Fall Formal (the vote is done the same day when school classes are over).
-> Her backup plan was to use that sledge hammer to break by force Celestia & Luna's home (while they were in the event) AFTER sensing the magic of the crown there [hoping she could deal with the Police/Military later using magic, or escaping to Equestria].
For the human pinkie pie senses, it's been shown that both pinkies from both worlds switch places at times (Ik it's weird) You can see it in Letupita725HD "Blooper Reel | MLP: Equestria Girls | Friendship Games! [HD]" at 2:09 and it still gives me a headache to think about
IM LITERALLY TELLING YOU the fact that flutter shy got hit with the crown in the morning but all of that happened at night
25:11 For the spare class question, yeah. Actually in my country its impossible to line up your classes to not have free periods with your friends (Unless you are in different years).
08:57 if i was sunset shimmer i also would steal the crown near the "30 moons" so they wouldnt have enough time to catch me, i dont think that was an "awful convinience", it just makes sense, they would have less time to notice the crown was fake
This is a really good video! I found a new channel to subscribe to today :)
A couple of counterpoints:
- Tbh it makes sense that she tried to wear the crown when the other ponies weren’t there for it, though I really don’t know why she didn’t tuck it into her bag 😂 would have solved all our problems, huh. She also wasn’t expecting a thief to run in and take it, so fair game? 3:59
- I’m pretty sure the bag was for Twilight to put the crown in when she retrieved it, cuz lord knows we can’t lose that thing again. 8:20
- Yes, the scene with Fluttershy and Sunset Shimmer is ‘convenient’ in a sense, but I mean so is life. It was pretty convenient that Sunset knew of that one mirror, or that she was Celestia’s student Without convenience the plot wouldn’t go forward, so I wouldn’t criticize the scene too much 11:32
- She doubts it is Fluttershy because she believes the pony version of Fluttershy that would normally turn into a human is still back in Equestria. She recognized the crusaders but didn’t connect that they were the actual ones since she didn’t know their names. This is Twilight’s first encounter with someone from Equestria existing independently in this new world, so she’s a little confused. 11:59
- Seeing Sunset come out of a mirror would be very Harry Potter running through the wall-esque, if people see it they think it’s a trick of the eye since normally people aren’t paying much attention to the statue. Also, I doubt Sunset uses the portal that much since she runs the risk of getting caught by Celestia each time. 12:59
- I don’t think Sunset was threatening to kill Spike 😂 she was probably going to just initiate the “no pets allowed” rule by snitching 22:33
- I’m guessing pony age and human age is different, and the portal translates a pony’s mental age to the equivalent human age, which is why I assumed Twilight was senior age. Also, for free periods you can plan it out to align but more likely they got a pass from their teacher if it is during class 25:14
- Yearbooks are slightly different than just photos, they have words with information explaining the events taking place which might be what Twilight references 28:42
- If Spike was sleeping I doubt he would know what she was working on 29:45
- Rarity wouldn’t miss a chance to work her design magic, and I think this is characterization for her later transformation 30:15
- It might be a private unlisted video that all the students got the link to, though Sunset might be malicious enough to humiliate her on a world level lol 31:17
- She probably just recognized the miscommunication and didn’t want to interrupt confusion with more confusion. 32:15
- Fades do not just a scene change indicate (it can be a time skip) 33:22
- Technically Sunset isn’t shown to know this, and if she did perhaps upsetting the balance of Equestria is what she wanted to rule it? 48:27
- She probably meant last season, since she only specifies that someone challenged her, and Fluttershy mentioned the Spring Fling 1:13:27
Is all of this an overanalysis of your analysis of a kids movie? Yeah, probably. But I really enjoyed watching it and I hope you make more of these :)
Dang, I really appreciate you watching the whole vid (or at the very least to 1:13:27) and typing all that out lol. You make some excellent points, too, and tbh a lot of these came to mind while making the vid, but I didn't really think it would've been necessary to add like another 3 hours to the runtime lmao.
And yea, I'll definitely make this kinda vid on the sequels/specials eventually!
can we just appreciate this analysis being longer than the actual movies themselves ;,) also posted in 2023? :O
41:53 [DEEPEST LORE] "Canterlot High School" (C.H.S.) was originally a Private "Girls Only" institution {set up as a front cover for the "Portal Technitians" tasked with keeping the Pedestal working}
-> Pinkie Pie & Trixie Lullamoon belong to this "coven of witches"; as well as Principal Celesta, Vice-Principal Luna & Dean Cadance (implied in Friendship Games to be an old friend of Luna from shared highschool time).
The Princess of the Fall Formal [Sunset] & the Queen of the Spring Fling [also Sunset, but should had being Rarity] are selected as possible "candidates" for the "coven" at the end of each year [potential Charismatic Leaders with Political Influence for the future of CHS]
43:12 [DUNGEON] There is a secret passage connecting this closset with the boiler room & the football/outdoors sports closet.
-> Only Luna & the Almighty Janitor are supposed to have the keys for it.
Sunset read their personal emails (learning about it); stealing & making copies of those years ago (this is how Snips & Snails got access to the room while closed with the safety that no-one will catch them hot handed).
The ages are hard to pindown in EQG, the Mane 6 work well enough being teenagers so off the top of my head some weird ones would be
Celestia/Luna - Obviously their human forms have not lived for a thousand years
Babs seed - in the comic as you touched upon, very odd choice aging her up
Cheerilee - is she mane-6 aged in FIM? maybe but in EQG she's put among Cranky doodle/Harshwhinny as "older teacher" type characters
Photo Finish - No way is she a teenager as a pony she's clearly a grown mare/woman with a career right?? but in EQG is a student
Diamond Dogs - I like how they're included in EQG but it is weird, how old would anyone guess they are in FIM as dogs?
Bulk Biceps - This guy is clearly a full grown pegasus stallion possibly on steriods in FIM, no way should he be a student and even dating Derpy in some shorts
Zecora - This may not count as she only appears in Doll form but if it does then surely she's not the same age as the mane6?
excellent points that I shall touch upon in later vids in this series!
It was the first in a series, and boy does it feel like the first.
rarity at the end of that short saying “it was nothing” wasn’t meant to be the writers trying to explain the joke in a clunky way, “it was nothing” is just another way to say “no problem”, and its also part of the joke, literally meaning that the end result applejack was happy with took no effort on raritys part.
this was such a well crafted video! def agree about this fandom's creativity and all the good that comes out of this show, this was super fun to watch
I mean, the whole thing with Twilight going from filly to full grown mare in 3 years could add up, since again, the CMC are in highschool (and presumably freshmen) and are considered fillies in the pony world. The mane 5 also had the same body types as the CMC in their freshman year, which could be 2-3 years ago, if they’re seniors or at least juniors because of the last day of school short. Also who knows if Pinkie and Fluttershy are in the same grade in EG. Assuming they age like the ponies, Fluttershy should be a year above Pinkie since, “I’m a year older than you”
I need you to know that for 7 years I have been looking for a mlp channel I couldn’t remember the name of and upon finding the channel I went “I can’t believe I found it again through a almost 2 hour mlp video “
I know that nothing about this movie makes sense, but what still bugs me the most is Sunset's evil plan. Like. She barely controls that magic and expects to take over Equestria??? There are FOUR powerful and experienced princesses (counting with Twilight, the owner of the crown) that can easily beat her and her silly zombie arm, and even if she could defeat the princesses, she had no clue who Discord was and that he was now by the Mane Six's side, he could turn Sunset into a burned chicken with a single snap of fingers. Like. It really doesn't make sense for someone who was supposed to be a smart manipulator.
(This is why I always prefered Sunset Shimmer as a hero rather than a villain)
And the fact the portal was threatening to close real soon
So she's gonna be cut off from her zombie army real quick too.
It is possible that Sunset had someone else be her minions before Snips and Snails.
Not likely, but still.
She specifically says "like *you* did to the last girl"
@@lautaroroldanpizzorno7494 Oh. Hmm, right.
Fluttershy?
Love the ending I got into the later movies pretty late but it was there when I needed it in my lowest days.
I love these "short" deep dives. 😂❤
Nah but how did sunset know whete twilies room is and why did she decide to steal the crown of all things? Like i get it its the element of magic but she left before the elements were rediscovered like what newspaper is she reading to keep up with equestria's events😭
Oop mbm commented too early lol
Edit: the comics do tell us that starswirl made the mirror and even made more and celestia went through one of those mirrors several times (not this one tho)
Not to mention the sirens were sealed in the hunan world by i think starswirl? So it makes sense that they had the info
The elements of harmony's importance got retconned with them later being destroyed lol
Aj and rarity(from what i remember) seemed to be on good terms at the point in the movie where aj tells twilie she knows her so perhaps she heard it from rarity? Im not sure i forgot
And whyd sunset split them up anyway
The video Sunset made to deface Rarity was of Rarity kissing a mannequin at her job.
Where can I find it?
Rarity kissing the mannequin?
@@chenillesagoe6348 It's described in a chapter of the Through the Mirror novelization, not animated
I feel that the human world and equestria MUST operate on different flows of time even beyond the evidence from the comics in the show its self the mane 6 are clearly not teenagers in equestria they don't live with their parents they have jobs, government obligations, they dont go to school etc with everything we know it just makes the most sense that time moves slower in the human world
I think Twilight's Canterlot friends were just taller ponies. Or they were actually older than Twilight, but it's not visible in their adult design because every pony between the age of 20 and 60 have the same body shape. Twilight's mom also has the same body shape as Twilight
In retrospect, Equestria Girls definitely has a few problems,it doesn't make any sense,and if Monster High wasn't well liked, Equestria Girls probably wouldn't exist at all,since however much i love it,at the end of the day, its just a cash grab.
However,i still adore it despite its flaws. In certain aspects, Equestria Girls is much better than Friendship Is Magic,like in terms of music,or redemption arcs ( just conpare Sunset Shimmer's redemption arc to Starlight Glimmer's and you will see what I'm talking about). I'm really fond of the characters, the stories are pretty fun,even though they're pretty.... Mediocre compared to FIM,and the Dazzlings' transformation sequence has been ingrained into my head.
It's incredibly revolting that Equestria Girls didn't get a finale. I thought it would have something for it's 10th anniversary,but no. Absolutely exasperating.
All shows Hasbro makes is for many
@@victor2641 i know, Equestria Girls is a perfect example of that. But i still love it :-)
But they did Spike so horrible by making him a damn dog.
16:01
“Magic and odd characters”
*shows flim and flam
💀💀💀
55:25 in the Reflections arc in the IDW comics it is shown that this is the case in other mirror dimensions. Definitely worth a read as it is one of the best stories in G4 for both Twilight and Celestial imo
A great Fanfic, indeed.
The First Equestria Girls is the best full-length film within My Little Pony! Thank you for your attention and have a happy new year!
It was so relaxing and charming listen to you throughout this video, the whole analysis and attention to details and I was laughing my ass of for the whole time😭, in other words genuinely thank you for brightening up this hour and a half for me, totally subscribing to see more videos from you!!
Twilight and the mane six are implied to be adults (ex: Rarity owning a business, the existence of schools in general, ext.) so why does PRINCESS Twilightsparkle end up with a literal teenager. This is the first time the horse is in a relationship and it's with a human teenager-
i talk about that in my latest vid, go check it out!
One hour, twenty one minutes, and thirty six seconds long. Sounds like a brief discussion to me. 😅
The fact that cracks me up the most is that human Rainbow Dash and Applejack are bittering for the first part of the movie like a married lesbian couple
[JUST FRIENDS]
. While their pony versions DID ended up canonically living together in Sweet Apple Acres (with their voice actress confirming their marriage); their human counterparts loved other people.
. ( Human) Applejack was dating Rarity on the EQG special "Rollercoaster of Friendship".
. (Human) Rainbow Dash reminded herself (out loud, explicitly) why she loves Fluttershy in the last EQG special.
-> It is implied that this romantic relationships ended at some point, while still remaining friends.
@@adolfodef Yeah I mean, i don't have a problem with it whatsoever and tbh i don't even care that much about the ship aspect of the show. It was just a silly joke lmao
Equestria Girls may be flawed but I still love it so much!!! ❤ (especially rainbow dash)
The way I can explain the makeup segment with Rarity and Apple Jack is that not every type of makeup look is going to suit your face and people have different preferences, some may make you look like a drag queen while some are intended to make you look like you have no makeup on so it does make sense to me kinda, maybe rarity was doing those 2016 Instagram model looks when Apple Jack wanted no makeup makeup lol
I wonder if sunset shimmer will be mentioned in g5
the only way to make G5 worse would be if she is, they’re going to botch her horribly 💀💀💀
It already costs Netflix to mention Twilight, and probably even more to actually have Spike appear in Chapter 6.
I fucking love it when someone else says my thoughts on Fluttershy but out loud, in a video
40:29 this is actually explained in the rainbow rocks blooper reel where pinkie switches with her other self through the portal
don't worry, i'll get to that eventually!
I just came to this channel and I’m binge watching! Plz never stop making these vids ❤️
Will do!!
i don't know why i am defending this specifically, but about the thumbnail in the recommendations during the cmc music video, the second video could have been a mix(random shit yt thinks you will like) playlist which is something yt does and it uses the music you are currently listening to as the first
As a 18 year old I really fell in love with MLP: Equestria Girls I just got around to watching and I'm hook, it has life lessons and the beauty of friendship and I love The character dynamic between each character my favorite Ponies are Twilight, Rarity, and Sunset Shimmer because I see a lot of me inside them and I can relate to them on a personal basis that's why I love Equestria Girls it reminded me of my highschool years I love it all they need to make a live action movie of this FR FR
1,3 hour isn't something I would consider brief... :3
After watching the video, ill be one of the guys to thank you for the video and always be here to watch more of your content in the future
That ending was really sweet. I dont know if ive ever seen your soft side and teaching us these important lessons.
By the way, equestria girls helping you through tough times? Thank god im not alone
Oh also id be a patron if i could be
Definitely was mixed with thses movies it was ok IMO definitely could have been much worse but just not that good
I myself saw it originally as Hasbros attempt to make there own Monsters High
If anything I'm still upset they never truly ended the series like having the girls graduate or at least explain where's the human Sunset during all of this
1:22 *looks at video length*
yep totally very brief
Bro same lol
In Canada it’s not uncommon to have school dances on week night the whole series takes place in Canada
The guy at the beginning who was walking his dog could’ve been someone who got kicked out for having a pet in the building 9:34
That’s clearly related to pinkie pie 4TH WALL BREAKING ABILITY’S and pinkie pie’s abilities crosses over in between words and (I use to be able too explain this better) but, I mean, it’s like firebrand always says “it pinkie pie 🥧,doesn’t question it” but just to be clear this could have something to do with pinkie pie 🥧 4th wall breaking abilities, no yah because ((spoiler alert ‼️) the other pinkie pie knows too) so yah pinkie pie can break the 4th wall and their by being able to cross through other words to and other detentions (pinkie pie has the power to break the law of physics so how to say she can’t break cross detentions with her 4th wall breaking abilities) (yes I still get it, I was merely over thinking it) i mean again like firebrand says “it’s pinkie pie, don’t question it”
This was Hasbro's first Magical Girl brand in the 2010s....
Sunset shimmers color pallet makes me happy istg one of the prettiest designs in the show
Lyra needs her own Equstria Girls movie where she enters and doesn’t wanna leave but BonBon has to slowly coax her back.
Equestria Girls was a decent movie that just happened to pave the way for a classic in Rainbow Rocks.
I feel like Equestria Girls would have made a bit more sense if it was either a college or a boarding school. It would just fill a lot of plot holes I think
Plus, the film debuted the same year as Doki Doki PreCure. You could say they're in the same grade.
oh yea, that flash sentry mention around 50 mins in got me wondering. what happened to him when twilight became ruler?
1:10:20 that an old video he made another one with where her "brother"(sunburst) was the one who was doing all the intell because where the mirror moved he followed
Thank you for this very quick and brief video about MLP. You're doing Gods work
28:21 to this day I don’t buy this for a damn second that Twilight doesn’t know what a yearbook is
Demon Sunset reminds me of Dark Bloom from Winx Club, & Black Lady (Chibiusa) from Sailor Moon
OMG I love Winx Club 🧚🏾♀️✨ Sunset Shimmer will make a perfect Bloom 🔥
@@chenillesagoe6348 She is almost like Bloom...
