What would you do for mlp gen 6?
>>
>>41262932
Nothing because MLP as a brand as of the year of our lord 2024 is not economically viable anymore. DND, Nerf and Transformers would be my sole focus for the growth of Hasbro.

I’d put Genndy Tartakovsky on it. Part of what made G4 so good is that the production team included people like Faust’s husband Craig McCracken who worked on classics like Foster’s Home, Chowder, and Regular Show, and collaborated directly with Tartakovsky on Powerpuff Girls and Dexter’s Lab. All of these influenced G4’s art style, dialogue, and general development to varying degrees, so there’s no doubt having G6 be in the same vein as something like Samurai Jack would make for a great show.

I’d pull a g2 and do games instead of a show but they’d be paper mario style rpgs

Only 1% of my little pony's viewers are /co/ posters like you though. Even i think Genndy's and Craig's art lacks a certain beauty element needed for the franchise. I do like the idea of G6 being a constant adventure with barely any time spent in a "home" setting like Samurai Jack, though.
>>
>>41262932
I think no matter what we can at least agree 2D is superior
>>
>>41263049
I'm agreeing, Tartakovsky would be pretty great. We always have ponies that have very small adventures and environments that are barely ever explored. Let's have full on campaigns across the lands. Not all may be created equally but it would lead to a ton of unique situations.
A static base party would also allow for a lot of growth. Samurai Jack is a good example because he learns skills over many episodes. Expand the cast to maybe a mane four and you have a lot of opportunities.

I think it’d work well to fill in the gaps between G4 and G5 (assuming G5 is canon) and explain how Equestria got to the state it’s in
>>
>>41263235
>I think it’d work well to fill in the gaps between G4 and G5
It would, there’s so much room for growth outside of what’s already been presented that personally I feel that would be wasted potential. Would be kino as a side plot about ancient history or something though.

For me only g4 exists. I know is lowkey retarded. But i only care about the mares and characters (spike included) of the 4th gen.

I tried (god knows) to like the other gens but i cant. Gt had potential but it all went to the drain with bad animation, cgi and a plotline that basically killed all that waa accomplished in g4

Agreed. I get what they were going for, but the way they presented the main conflict felt out of character and wholly unnecessary as setup to the rest of the story. That isn’t to say it’s a bad concept, just horribly misplaced and mishandled.

My pipe dream for G6 is that it somehow retcons the entirety of G5 and the end of G4, even if that means leaning into le timeline shenanigans (could even involve G1-3 in some way if they’re brave enough). If they were to remix the plot points starting from around G4 season 5 to present-day G5 into a coherent narrative and provide a legitimate, compelling reason for creating the Unity Crystals later down the line, I might entertain the idea of forgiving Hasbro. Maybe.
Also make the rest of the G4 mane six alicorns, they deserve it
>>
>>41262932
put /mlp/ in control of it but keep it basically the same as s1-s4. make it hand drawn and get our best artists on it. Include an anon every once in a while to have some wacky adventures or twilight zone tier plot line with alternative realities. Have atleast one episode for each of the mane 6 with an anon spending time with his waifu

Clean slate. New characters. No real world politics. Horse/Pony-like designs. Use common sense and good judgement in regards to the attention given to the 'bronies' and adult fans. Drop the it's-for-kids-bad-writing-doesn't-matter mentality. Make the toys look like the characters. Be consistent., and hire someone specifically to maintain brand coherence and consistency. Make sure this person understand the history of the franchise and the publics relationship with it. And for fucks sake, don't attack your goddamened audience.

>I’ve convinced myself you said something you didn’t say and now I am mad
Anon we both agree that G5 was completely and utterly squandered, from the plot to the characters (still mad about Spike) to the art style. There’s no question there. I just think that if some of the existing plot elements were to be employed by a competent team who actually cares about the world they’re overseeing, they could make for a legitimately interesting story. It’s like seeing a good character design be confined to a shitty gacha game. And fuck you I love Equestria and having friends
>>
Please for the love of everything just go back to the G4 art style. That's the bare minimum that I am asking for

>Stupid Idea
Make it so Twiggy sealed magic away to contain an extradimensional adversary that's a tie in to a different Hasbro property. In this case: Azalin Rex from the Ravenloft setting.
For those unfamiliar, Ravenloft is the D&D horror setting, where various villains from across the spheres of the universe are imprisoned by Dread Powers inside their own little kingdoms. However, they are tormented by an ironic punishment that makes each one of them that is aware of their situation want to escape. Adventurers are usually brought in by the Dread Powers to derail these escape attempts and also further torment the rulers of these dread realms (or get tormented themselves). Azalin Rex is a lich who is aware of his predicament, and often tries to escape his dread kingdom.
In current lore, Azalin made an escape attempt that resulted in his disappearance, and possibly succeeded in his escape attempt as his dread realm is disintegrating.
I would have it that he escaped the dread realms, BUT the Dread Powers fucked with him on the way out so that he ended up in Equestria. His initial delight in being free would be immediately cut short as he realized he could not tap into the magic of the realm he found himself in, because in Equestria, Friendship is Magic and Azalin has no friends. So he is left with the only abilities inherent to him as a lich, and whatever spell power he has on him at the time, and recouperating his magic would require devouring souls or draining magical artifacts.
That'd be the set up.

>better idea
Get better writers. Pull episode ideas from Arabian Nights, Aesop, and various fairy tales. Maybe have a Djinn/Genie as the bad guy who goes around granting monkey's paw type wishes.

Maybe. Or he was eating people who had a lot of friends because they had a lot of magic surrounding them.
If Friendship magic is sealed away in whatever tupperware Twiggy sealed it in, then Azalin can't eat it.
Ironically, if he was allowed to devour enough souls, he'd go to some other world with a more sensible magic system.
