Want to thank you for all of your continued support! Sara and I would love to have you over on our gaming channel, READY PLAYER DUMB! Please consider subscribing :D th-cam.com/users/readyplayerdumb
no worries Race, Id love a part of bronies react some time in the very future
When the New My Little Pony New Generation comes out this Friday, are you guys going to do a bronies react to it anytime soon?!?
Love these vids, brings me back to the good ol days. Seeing all you guys together feels like an avengers level team up no matter how many times I see it lol.
I can’t wait till you all react to the MLP A new generation movie!
@@mechasonicfan-artist5732 i think at an efnw panel they said they would
I love how 50 minutes in this briefly turned into a bad found footage horror movie with Black Gryphon looking for wild hogs out in front of his house.
"oh my god that was scary.... Now back to My Little Pony."
That was definitely some wild animal out there though… 😨
The skinwalkers were on the prowl lol
Did they say “hogs?” Cause I thought it was a Fox.
@@rydermccall3590 yea they said hogs
Everyone criticising AJ for not just telling twilight "hey, rainbow and fluttershy are ready to catch you when you let go" is infinitely funny to me.
I mean, it wasn’t very honest of Applejack to withhold that info
@@Doomzdeh I didn't understand why they didn't just grab her when she was hanging on the cliff instead of waiting for her to drop.
@@Sephade”hey, rainbow dash, why don’t we just grab her now?”
“Nah, lets see how this plays out. I heard this sort of things builds character.”
gotta get that heart pumping and blood flowing
The series is finished, now it’s time to go backwards.
Back to the past!
Speaking of backwards, since it's almost Halloween again, lets watch some more g3 why not? maybe even g1 to see the old Tirek and Applejack.
probably what we'll have to do anyway if G5 turns out to be bad/medicore.
It's like reading the Torah!
To play the shitty games that suck ass?
Jaxblade getting worked up over Fluttershy will never fail to make me smile. The pure joy that a single character can spark in a human being, it’s wonderful to observe, and an incredible thing to experience.
Jaxblade is a man of culture and I like people with similar tastes to me.
really well said omg
fluttershy BEST PONY 37:27
i always loved that he's this jacked workout enthusiast who loves intense DBZ battles and his favorite pony that he gets so giddy over is Flutters
@@nexenzy5825 Its so adorable lol
A show about ponies? Pfft, it will never catch on.
HAHA
Sourdough:How did that work out for you?
But ya didn't
Yea god what a dumb idea, nothing with ever come of it
It won't, like how Turning a toy based on warring robot factions that transform into other machines, animals, or weapons into a military/War Drama won't catch on.
_Everyone_ sounded younger in the first season, it's especially apparent with Applejack. I think it might be because of the VAs becoming more comfortable in their roles over time.
I think it may also have to do with the VA’s physically aging 😂
*Everypony
Yeah. At the time, I think the ponies who sound the most like their Season 9 selves in this premiere are Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle.
I don’t think it’s age with AJ, even the next seasons has her voice change a lot. I think it was a choice to change it.
@@Edmonton-of2ec only young VA like cmc
Man ever since I was 15 I always dreamed of being on Bronies react. I'm 25 now and I can't believe how much time has flown by. This community was always special to me and I always wanted to be a part of it. I love making MLP related animations and even though I've switched over to furry content I still hope to be a part of this community especially after G5 releases
same, i wish u luck
Don't dream your life. Live your dreams 😁
You all very lucky, Not Like Me, i am Only have2 Friend Like watch Mlp, when i first mlp i was 2 year old, I missed all that, you should be grateful and Happy.
Dude same and im 20 years old and i still dont believe it.
WHAT YEAR IS IT?!?!
In all seriousness, as someone who joined the fandom in 2015, I appreciate bearing witness to professional* reactions towards the birthplace of Bronyness. I’m sure it’ll be super meta too, Discord would be proud.
I feel the same way when I joined in August 2014. I feel like I missed a lot in the first few years of the Fandom
I joined last year
I started watching it back in 2011 when I was 8
I joined in 2013-2015 (cant remember)
Although I'm not really in it anymore, I still watch stuff about it.
I was there since day one 1210 i was ten years old now im 21.
I love when Gabe causally called Michelle like “Hey remember when you were this small and wholesome? That was a long time ago lmao”
I'm surprised no one revisited the ol "Celestia set this whole thing up and just watched" theory.
Man, I hope in G5 we get to meet an old version of Spike and he has an apprentice/assistant who he goes out of his way to treat better than everyone else did to him. Just as a nod to all the years of being everyone's slapstick punching bag.
Honestly, this video is special. I didn’t get into mlp until 2020 cause I needed a pick me up during the pandemic. Now going back and discovering all the wonderful work this fandom has done has really made the stresses easier. This ep is so great because it really paints the picture of the early days of the fandom when everything was airing live. It also shows the sheer passion the show inspired. I checked out all these guys’ channels too, and all their vids have grown just as much as mlp did. I hope this continues in G5 because I hope I can be a part of this community this generation and just experience that fun. Thanks Race and co!
I wish I had joined at the beginning if 2011
@@jcj268 I got into the fandom late 2013, myself.
Ironically, all because a coworker HATED the entire concept of MLP and wanted to pull me into that bubble of hate.
However, after months and months of him telling me reasons why I should see it as "everything wrong with the world", I got curious because I thought, "surely there's got to be SOMETHING positive about it", so checked out the Equestria Girls movie since it had just come out on DVD and that just got me more curious about what lead up to the movie... and I never regretted going down that rabbit hole since.
It's interesting to think that, if not for his pure hatred of MLP and trying to make me the same, I might never have gotten into the show at all.
@@autumbreeze1129 my sister intruduced me in 2016, when i was 11, and i have watched the all the episodes and movies, yes even equestria girls 3 times.
@@autumbreeze1129 I discovered it around the same time as you. I bought the season 1 and 2 DVDs but season 3 hadn't concluded yet. TH-cam had all of season three which I watched there - except for Magical Mystery Cure so I completely missed out on the Twilicorn drama. I think I did pretty well because being fully entrenched in the fandom watching the season 4 premiere and finale during their original airing with fellow bronies was quite the experience.
I remembered joining back in 2014
I wish I had gotten into FiM from the start. I joined 2012 so I saw everything at its prime pretty much, but it would have been very interesting to experience the very early days.
I joined 2020. I wish I could have seen the "golden era" of bronydom, but I know I wouldn't have been mature enough to handle My Little Pony in 2010.

Regarding Silver's criticism of the use of the Dao symbol, specifically Celestia should be a male. Yang, which is the light, is also associated with the masculine side of the whole 'balance' thing.
Regarding Gabriel's condiment joke, Pegasi relished in their freedom to fly the skies, Unicorns mustard their arcane might, and Earth Ponies struggled to ketchup.
her original design might've been but i don't know if that's just a fever dream i'm having
@@baphometbby I recall that Celestia was originally going to be a Queen, but that was abandoned, not her being a male
I relish in that condiment pun.
Oh my God. XD
Given that Celestia should be male, my headcanon is that she is trans.
Ladies and gentlemen, with you... the end of the cycle. Let's enjoy it.
Sigh. The memories.
(49:00) I have a theory:
The CMC hiding together like that in this episode (when they don’t formally meet until later on) is they’re all fearful for their lives, so they just huddled together by happenstance.
EDIT: Have to admit though these early episodes of Season 1 foreshadowed main plots and subplots very slowly seasons later.
Bronies: talking about RD and AJ's voices and mannerisms
Me: guess Ashleigh had a BALL with those two back then!
HA GOOD ONE
Leave!
@@ShaDHP23 😋
Yeah, the alicorns weren't originally called Alicorns. They were referred to as Winged Unicorns. Alicorn is a fan-given name. Alicorn is actually the material that a unicorn's horn is composed of.
Luna actually got her dream walking powers as Nightmare Moon. She got them while on the moon by a race that gave ponies dreams. Nightmare Moon got the ability from them, and send Nightmares to the ponies to attempt to make them fear Celestia.
Originally, Lauren Faust's idea was that because Celestia was in charge of Luna's duties, she was responsible for the stars. Which means that Celestia orchestrated the release of Nightmare Moon herself. However this was never canonized, so... it's not canon.
Technically, it's not confirmed that RD and AJ are together at the end. It was done with the intent to be ambiguous. If you want the AppleDash ship, it works. If you don't, you can make it work.
Lilo
Everyone Else: Not the to be continued!
Gabe: *Gets attacked by a wild hog*
I was going through the Bronies react playlist the other day and thinking it was a shame you guys never did Season 1... Lo and behold, the final(?) react for FiM will be the episode that started it all. Beautifully poetic
“Purple on purple? Why would you do that?”
Twilight: *exists*
For Jaxblade: That story about working Fast food and coming home and finding some geninue relief in the show. Yeah same here, retail but yeah closely related feelings at the end of the day.
1:16:40 Well in a way Spike is like a son to Twilight. So I'm just going to assume Nightmare Night had kidnapped Spike in order to blackmail Twilight into surrendering, which ironically is exactly what she does in season 5, during the alternative time lines finale
i grew up with bronies react being raised by my then teenage brony brother, thank u for making me who i am today and im so happy that i was in such a wonderful community with the nicest most understanding people from such a young age
"Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria..."

There were 2 regal sisters who created harmony for all the land.

This gives me soo much hope that the spirit of G4 hasn’t and will never die!!
Saberspark: We're finally done! No more!
ACRacebest: ...Why can't we go backwards? Backwards, really fast, as fast as we can...Starlight Glimmer did it.
Regarding the ponified version of the Statue of Liberty actually existing in this universe, we actually get to see it in S4E8 "Rarity Takes Manehattan" during Rarity's song "Generosity."
Going back to the beginning before the new movie drops on Friday? Pretty interesting, I also can't wait for your reactions to the new movie in the not-too-distant future of NEXT SUNDAY A.D.
Sorry, what? this is the first time I've heard of another movie
@@Hessonite_Dragon_Helen MLP generation 5 movie comes out this THURSDAY! :D
Finally, digitally animated My Little Ponies that aren't fan-made
To the past and now future? What waits for our pony equine friends
@@jareththegoblinking3191 All of G4 was digitally animated.
You mean 3DCG animation, which is not inherently any better and is mostly used as a *cost-cutting* trick in eastern animation.
I entered the fandom in 2016 and honestly, that was my gateway to fandom culture and internet culture im general. Shortly after, I found Bronies React and I instantly loved it, and I was introduced to all ya'll. For the first time I felt like I was part of something bigger and it turned me into the success story I am today. Thanks ACRacebest. You're the reason I'm like this.
Damn i thought i was the only one who joined the fandom in 2016.
I am 5 minutes in and already tearful STOP. Gabe's "What could go wrong?" got me good. More like, what could go so very very right and wonderful and absolutely life-changing.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who pretends I'm in the video and reacting with them every time I watch one of these.
Also thank God we still have Bronies in the year of our Lord 2021. Love you all /)
Wow. It's been so long since I've seen a brohoof. This makes me so happy.
Agreed, tha l god we still have this wonderful community!
(\
This react is going to make me feel old and cry because I remember where I was and what I was doing when I watched it.
I remember why I watched it. It was on an either my sibling was watching it or they were watching something before and I was too lazy to get up and change the channel.
Bruh I was five when G4 came out and now I’m nineteen! I still love this show!
They mention the lessons for the manticore and the laugh scene, but I was an actual little kid when MLP came out and those scenes taught me some good lessons.
What I absorbed was be kind to people who need it and laugh away your fears (like the fears that don’t physically hurt you)
Fun fact: When first broadcasted, the first 2 seasons of the show were slightly desaturated compared to season 3 onward due to an error with the files when they were converted for broadcast. Later reruns and international broadcasts fixed the color. You can see it the most with Fluttershy.
I’m surprised none of you “Professional” Bronies mentioned or saw that before Applejack said “let go” you see her eyes look up and then down before telling Twilight to “let go” meaning that AJ was telling the audience that Twilight would be safe though I agree she should have told Twilight that she would’ve been caught by RD and Fluttershy I’m glad you are doing more Bronies react I’m hoping you guys react to more MLP G4 content before we all start G5 if you guys take requests I’d love to see you react to “She talks to Angel” or “Fake it to you Make it” I’d love to hear Losty’s reaction to the personalities Fluttershy creates
I think the best way of fitting this together with the Daybreaker episode is that Celestia didn't go through the dreams for her thousand years (maybe she didn't know how), and the lack of princess therapy had a disastrous impact on pony mental health.
Perhaps not even Luna knew how to walk through dreams until like S3
I love Jax's reactions with Fluttershy, it's hilarious.
Saber: I'm here for life
Me: *Brony -now-parent of a daughter who is just as much in love with MLP as I was and shows no signs of stopping* ...Same bro ;w; but at least we can carry on for the next generations!
AC mentioning that "yay" Fluttershy song, and then hearing it, opened up a door that had been closed for too long. It's nostalgia at its best, I miss being a kid, but I'm glad I can still enjoy what made me happy when I was young. Nothing's changed
The thing I always notice about AJs family in season 1. When she says Golden Delicious, we see a green stallion.
Just wanted to say that I joined the fandom late (2018), and didn't give Bronies React a chance until 2020, but when I did - I binge-watched all of it and had a blast. Some of the earlier reacts were kinda awkward, but after that? Tons of hilarious commentary. Hope to see plenty of reacts for G5!
Glad you gave it a chance and got to enjoy it. Hope you have fun with us on the next generation!
Same expect I joined in like 2008-2009 :p
My first brony react video was When they did the first equestria girls movie from 2013.
You remember the times you've spend watching the show, you remember the friends you made along the way. Everything will be fine. Your memories are floating back.
I remember always looking forward to your guys reaction, whenever a new season started or finished and its so delightful to see you all once more.
I do not know what the future will bring or what the next Generation will have in store for us, but I will be ready, for once again, we call upon the power of friendship!
Gabe showing that old video of his is even more hilarious for me because, it wasn't until I rewatched that video myself last year that I realized it was him.
I'd literally watched that video so many times and, even after meeting him in person back in 2018, it still didn't click until I rewatched that video last year that it was him in that video.
And those hogs outside his and Claire's house took me by surprise... mostly because I suspected Claire might’ve just been playing a prank to lock him outside for a bit 😆
Wow, nostalgia. I first saw this in 2011, after someone on Channel Awesome posted a playthrough of an MLP fangame based on a "spooky" MLP fanfic. Saw that video, didn't like being completely f**king lost, and looked for context. The rest is history. At a low point in my life, this fandom kept me going. Thanks for everything, everyone
It’s interesting to hear how people get into this series.
The passion’s quite amazing.
Seeing everyone recall their old memories Is so amazing!
To this day, many people may think that season 1 is one of the most boring seasons of mlp G4, but i for one don't think it's that bad i mean sure it definitely has it's ups and downs like all seasons do, but's still fun to watch!
omg your everywhere on anything related to mlp. everytime i scroll in the comments of any mlp video, your always there lol.
Agreed. I consider Season 1 as a warm up to what will we be expecting in future episodes.
@@jordanjonescelestialwaffle1698Pardon the question but, You do realize that it doesn't really matter that he's everywhere right?
I don’t think it’s bad, but it is my least favorite season of the show. For one, it’s the least impressive from a technical perspective. A lot of assets both visual and especially auditory are reused or just somewhat generic. I also feel as though this episode has one of the worst ratios when it comes to interesting/standout episodes. There are some really good ones in season one, but there are also a lot of episodes that you could easily skip either because they aren’t very captivating or because they have extremely predictable plots with nothing much to keep viewers entertained (looking at you “look before you sleep”). You could argue that later seasons also have this problem, but I think it’s far worse in season one. The later seasons have a massive upgrade in terms of both budget and general writing quality. Even if the main plots of later season episodes don’t grab you, the way the episodes present their plots and the shenanigans that the characters get into along the way are typically some top notch stuff. Here in season one, however, the staff didn’t yet know what they wanted the show to be in terms of tone and storytelling and they were limited by budget. In season one, if the actual primary plot of the episode doesn’t pull you in, then your probably not going to find much to enjoy. It’s got some good highs, but it’s also got some REALLY bad lows.
Tbh season one and two are my favorite seasons. I much prefer the standalone episode format rather than the serialization. I much preferred when Twilight was just a unicorn.
I find it crazy still how long MLP went for. I was there for the beginning and the end, it started when I was in like the 4th grade... now I’m in my second year of college.
Going through the old episodes is always a blast of nostalgia.
I've been in this fandom since 2010-2011 I believe and it's crazy seeing how far Gen 4 had come. Middle school me really loved this series and my love for this series grew while I was in high school (and graduated high school). I'm 21 (almost 22 because my birthday is at the end of next month) and I'm really hyped to watch MLP again with Gen 5 officially starting tomorrow with the movie!
I'd laugh if ACRacesbest was back on the cushion chair just like the older reacts
With Standard Definition quality footage lol
4:3 Aspect Ratio
After our fight, we decided to go our separate ways...wonder how that chair is doing these days.
@@ACRacebest Who won?
@@ACRacebest Legend says the glitter remains in that chair to this very day...
And still no haircut
I don't know if everyone else noticed but like, it's so heartwarming seeing the reactors like, know each other so well as to predict how each other's reactions are and how certain scenes remind them of their bond, it's very sweet
0:56 it’s really wild that the Masterpiece Theater theme so closely follows the gen 4 theme song. Also; I can totally see Dusty as host/narrator of a PBS docu series. His delivery, tone and delivery are perfect!
Instead of second delivery- I’ll edit this to say: “and inflection are perfect”, Tried to edit original- can’t-MB
It's good to see the content creators who were involved back in the day still appreciating MLP and the impact it's had.
I wonder whatever happened to brony dance party?
THE OLD INTRO AND THE WHOLE CREW BACK TOGETHER AGAIN, IM GONNA CRY
"Who has a rager at a library!?" I thought we learned by now not to question pinkie pie
I joined the herd when the show ended. Had I known about MLP sooner, I would've joined in a heartbeat. But now that I'm a brony, I was introduced to many things that I deemed impossible. Grimdarks, ponyfics, you name it. I currently have a best pony who I wouldn't want to replace in the world, that being Fluttershy. Simply put, MLP G4 is the best thing to have ever happened in cartoon history. And that will never change. Thank you for doing this for ALL of us. ❤️
Better late then never, im surprised there are people still joining the fandom to this day
welcome to the herd lad ☺️
@@MajoraWaffle Thanks. ❤️
@@Exetior3 Tell me about it. ❤️
@@Exetior3 I guess so
well, with the new mlp series, will be glad to see the old reactors back, and hopefully some new faces as well.
Man this is such a nostalgia hit with everyone here
Ah, the beginning of the series.
Anyway, just two days until My Little Pony: A New Generation.
And please do the Bronies React: The Mean 6 (Season 8 Episode 13).
Maybe a few Bronies Reacts to some G1 content, like the first two specials and the movie
@@erichfiedler1481 Lol, that is a great idea, and then there’s just me waiting for Return of Harmony 😅
Didn’t they do that already?
@@theblackswordsman5039 Nope. Not yet. 🤷♂️
I was nine years old when this MLP came out… It really *is* strange to think of everything that happened from then til now and how much time has actually passed. Such a great beginning to something that has culturally impacted time and us all forever. Oh, the nostalgia.
i love how in most seasons (until the last ones) all the background ponies were always the same, and many were copy pasted, but they actually fixed it after, they made original designs for background ponies, and that's rly nice! Cause everytime there's a design that's too specific for a background character in the back we already know this character will appear again, but they fixed it, and most shows just don't do that, and that's awesome!
Damn, this video made me go back to 2012, when I started watching the show.
Thinking back about all those years, I can't stop feeling both extremely happy for having witnessed the evolution of brony community, and extremely sad knowing the show's over.
Add up that I've been growing up with the show, from 15 to now 24, watching this video makes me think back to how carefree my childhood was.
Happier times, happier times.
1:07:12 OH MY GOD I AM SO GLAD HE MADE THAT REFERENCE! ONLY OG FANS WILL REMEMBER THAT VIDEO!
I knew he was gonna make that reference, I so knew it lol
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INTRO BIT! /gen
I've been a fan/follower of literally every one of you featured on the channel as well as the Bronies React series itself for YEARS, but recently as I've gotten older and more busy with other things in life I haven't found as much time to keep up with ya'll, so I had no idea Ready Player Dumb was a thing!
Thank you so much for mentioning it, and I'll be sure to check it out!
16:27 i just felt a huge pain in my chest when that just happened.
I haven't felt pain like that in a long time...
Man, the Spike abuse really was doing a number on me when I was younger.
Then again, he is the reason why I came to the show in the first place. 😁
Nightmare moon’s backstory comic (fiendship is magic series) shows that she was sent *onto* the moon where she met these little creatures whose sole purpose was to protect ponies from nightmares ever since the beginning of time, she ended up manipulating one of them into teaching her how to control dreams, then turned on them and kinda stole their powers with the intention of giving ponies nightmares forever. Makes us know that Celestia (and everyone else including Luna) had no idea that those creatures existed. I really like the idea of nightmare moon being sent to the moon and “stealing” the power, fucking up dreams for 1000 years, comes back to Equestria but gets reformed and she decides to use the power she took for the better of ponies as long as she lives
Is it just me, or is this fandom getting a revival?? Like we all collectively decided to rewatch the show recently for no reason??
A. Covid gave everyone time to rewatch and binge shows.
B. Gen 5 is out, so nostalgia is happening for Gen 4.
I relate to JaxBlade on a spiritual level throughout this entire thing.
This was so fun to watch! That Star Wars-style opening was a nice touch. I love listening to a lot of fun, interesting commentary with good points liberally sprinkled with quips and jokes. And this group of bronies is very good at that.
Looking back at the earlier episodes makes me even more curious about all the unanswered questions about the show canon. Why Twilight's Element is called "Magic" instead of "Friendship", what Nightmare Moon was doing during her banishment, where Celestia disappeared to during the first episode, the original aim of Star Swirl's unfinished spell, how the royal sisters became alicorns, where Spike came from, how long a "moon" is, where certain locations like Tartarus or the Golden Oak library are on the map of Equestria, etc.
Thanks for sharing this with us! ^_^
Some.of it had the peace walker theme
“On the dusk of today, we remember its dawn.”
Ah yes, I too remember the masterpiece that was Dusk's Dawn.
@@awesometwitchy lmfao I didn’t even think about Dusk’s Dawn when I was quoting that 😂
How dare you say the devils name in this holy comment section! Shame on you!
This is going to make me cry isn’t it.
Man, as someone who got into the show during the first week of quarantine I remember watching this as a simple joke to pass the time, I had no idea just how influential and good this cartoon really was. From the fandom to the show itself, it’s just a whole experience and it’s kinda like a special time capsule of 2010-2013 for me in a way, even though I didn’t watch the show nor was I apart of the fandom back then, I can still remember back to a simpler time when I was still in elementary school. And I thought it was going to be like a Dora the explorer type show. that’s how low my expectations were but holy crap did it exceed them.
i know this is off topic but i can't stop staring at saber's bionicles ahhh i always wanted the original ones! it's so cool he has those!
I’m bad with years, but I joined the fandom a couple weeks before season three dropped, and it became my entire identity for a couple years. That was just as I was hitting puberty, and high school hit, I fell out of the fandom entirely. That was somewhere in the middle of season 7. Since then, I’ve been in a couple full relationships, I’ve had a kid, and I’ve learned so much about myself. Looking back, this show shaped my morals so much and the fandom allowed me to discover myself. I haven’t watched or even thought about the show in years, but I recently had a recording for someone and it was of one of the songs from Equestria Games. Ever since, it’s been popping back into my mind. Now I’ve finally got free time to sit and watch this video, I don’t know why I fell out of it. I am gonna rewatch the series and try to get back into the fandom, as now I am sorely missing that since of community and belonging that I only got when I was in it. Thank you so much for being such an important part of my childhood and I hope we can keep this community going for a long time
Rar: "She's GONE!"
*See's Celly's mane flapping behind the front gate*
Rar: "Oh, wait. There she is!"
*I grew up with this series heavily, and I always wanted to be apart of it, very nostalgic. It's so crazy I am super proud of this channel and the creators.*
Been a blast of a ride with the herd, this is such a great way to close it & move on to more off-canon based progress of the cult. Thanks AC!
It was actually confirmed in that same episode that it was Lunas cutie mark talent that gave her the ability to dream walk.
She even says that she can't do anything because Celestia had her cutie mark.
I love the new lore that Lyra and Bon Bon were seeing other ponies before dating. That's cute.
I found mlp:fim in either 2013 or 2014 and rewatched the episodes until around the time season four came out, so watching these episodes after so long feels weirdly nostalgic.
I like how Gabe just calls up Michelle just to for that one little segment.
I know it would probably be next to impossible and take FOREVER to do, but i would LOVE to have Bronies react do a video for every Episode of the series and be a watchalong for people. Their reactions to what happens and their responses are so interesting, funny and inciteful into their knowledge of the show and its characters its so entertaining.
29:00 - All those Apple names, but, as far as I could tell, not one Fuji Apple! (of course, that would require an Apple cousin bringing home an Asian war bride, or some such... )
30:50 - I hope Spike got some, too.
32:44 - I've often wondered if someone has shown footage of the Wonderbolts to the Blue Angels, and how they feel about it?
36:18 - YES! Well said, sir!
Thanks for all the MLP reactions throughout the previous decade! I didn’t have any friends that were into MLP so having a series that helped me to know what others thought meant a lot!
I got into MLP during G3 at 5 years old, and continued loving it through G4 at 14 years old (the first episode I saw was Over a Barrel)! It’s been a huge inspiration to me wanting to write for children, and hopefully I’ll draw in a good adult audience as well!
Let’s hope G5 is just as good!
Wow I wasn’t expecting a new bronies react any time soon! Especially one going back to the very first episode wow. Can’t wait to watch when it premiers!
Ah, the memories. I loved this video so much!! I remember watching the first episode on TV when I was younger. That was my first step into the MLP world
When I first watched this show I was a 9 year old girl who was already a fan from the previous generation. Now I’m nearly 20 and wow, how different we and the world are!
I remember not having a moment that caught me. It was kind of a slow burn, where I slowly but surely fell in love with the show.
The way I found out about MLP FiM is one Saturday I was watching Fraggle Rock on the Hub. Then Party of One came on. My mom was in the shower, and I couldn't find the remote. So I was stuck watching it. But as time went on, I became intrigued, so I looked up the rest of the episode on TH-cam, because they were chill back then. I liked it, and that's how it started. :-)
The first episode was great. I might have liked it less when I first started in 2014 but now I see how essentially perfect it is as an introduction to the characters and to the world.
I can relate with Jaxblade about Fluttershy. Fluttershy was my favorite from the start and that never changed, to me she's still the best pony and the reason I'm a brony. Thank you G4 FIM team for making such a great character.
PLEASE DO MORE!!! YOU GUYS ARE HILARIOUS!!! Also I never knew that the opening pic of the mane 6 was a drawing by Lauren Faust.
Littleshyfim's first time watching vs 47th time watching is ME! this show is how i started analyzing and critically engaging with the things i like to watch!!
I'm with Jaxblade on this one. Twilight's "tell me she's not" moment at Giggle at the Ghostly won me over entirely. The show was meta enough to poke fun at itself and I loved it for that
That was my favourite joke when I first saw these episodes as a kid.
I kept rewinding it over and over.
I actually like the fact that they're recreating the first time they watched My Little Pony.
Most Bronies: Doesn’t like the intro
Meanwhile, JaxBlade: 🕺🕺🕺🕺
I still can’t believe this episode came out when I was, like, four
And now I’m 15
I remember being such an early fan of the series that I had to watch the first episode part 1 until they released part 2
47:02 Because that's where Celestia is and also what better way to spit in her face than to ruin the celebration that is all about the sun.
I’m so glad we’re getting a professional reaction to a show and season opener. It’s a nice nostalgia trip to the episode that began the grandeur, creativity, exuberance and spectacle this community became known for.
Edit: AND WITH THE LOST NARRATOR 😄😆🤩 This is so amazing
The ponies relished.
Black Gyphon: Did they mustard?
No, but I bet the could ketchup(catch up)
