It really is the the american century of humiliation for ponies, china keeps winning with all their g4 stuff. Pretty good animation from the chinese side of the fandom, at this rate g4 will just be revived for the chinese market onlyhttps://www.bilibili.com/festival/bnj2026?bvid=BV1rdZ5BWExdhttps://u.pone.rs/tnulrzsn.mp4
>>43098781>at this rate g4 will just be revived for the chinese market onlyThat's a good thing. Hasbro is the company that always goes toy first, story second. Faust did not depart right before The Canterlot Wedding without a reason. Then there's Twilight's castle and later school. G4 started off pretty nicely with its slice of life + mysticism but the corpo got to it. I'm all in for a reboot even if I'll have to watch it with subtitles.
>>43098804>The Canterlot Wedding without a reasonanon reasons were personal
>>43098781The last supper. Does this imply Twilight is dying in the G4 revival.
>>43098781Rarity unironically sang ching chong
>>43098781I watched this. Original animation and VA. With lip sync too. Pretty solid stuff.
>>43098781>https://u.pone.rs/tnulrzsn.mp4Nobody has time for this stuff. It's cool, but only a bugman would have the time (and discipline) for this type of animation, these days.Not to mention if it was done in Flash—that makes it even more impressive, because Flash is a bitch.
>>43098781>Pretty good animation from the chinese side of the fandom.It is good animation, though.
I'm so glad it has the top-down angle, the most important angle.

Just as mlp starts to lose a little traction in the west, it explodes in popularity in the east. Lauren Faust created the singularity of this timeline, and we haven't even realized it yet. Hasbro's copyright might keep the world safe for now, but imagine how much FiM will explode once it enters public domain. Anyone could make any content with any pony characters they want and publish it. Humanity will be culturally consumed and dominated under a wave of pastel colored, vaguely equine-shaped amorphous blobs. It's like the thought experiment of an AI designed to make paperclips so it takes over the world and kills off humanity to maximize paperclip production, except its human nature loving cute ponies so much that all else is forfeited to the goal of cute-ifying everything into ponies.
>>43098945No shit derplock
>>43098947You know?!I see how it is. You cannot escape to Equestria, so you plan to turn Earth into Equestria! Lauren planted the seeds right under everyone's noses and then left before anyone could realize what she'd done. The executives at hasbro caught on and tried to stop it. The made seasons 8 and 9 shit to drive the franchise into the ground, but it didn't work. Next, they made G5 to try and discredit everything established by G4, but it also didn't work. They were too late, and now no amount of corporate retardation can kill the ponification, but merely hold it back temporarily.I need to leave here before the hive mind consumes me, but darn it if the colorful ponies aren't so aesthetically pleasing...
>>43098781Is she right?https://x.com/BloodiestNun/status/2031824537797738845
>>43098781>animation with near show-quality production barely gets any attention or buzzI hate this board.
>>43099001Why is this an issue? Why can't people just make videos for the love of pony rather than chasing the cheese?
>>43098781guys why is her neck longer than normal?
>>43099371Because it's soulful like season 1 and proportions are optional.
>>43099371alicorn twilight rig but with wings removed
>>43099372is it? or did they just take the later season model and just removed the wings?either way the wing removal is appreciated but i just cant shake the feeling that twilight's neck is feels a little longer than the others in this
>>43099377This basically>>43099375
>>43099375>>43099377I'm gonna say you're right based on this shot. I guess Chinese people don't have the right autism.
>>43099383I wonder why they'd purposefully remove the wings, was there some interesting discourse in the chinese side of the fanbase regarding alicorn twilight?
>G1 style>unicorn Twilight>cute ponies doing cute things>original animation >for the love of poniesABSOLUTECHINADOMINATIONGET FUCKED S1 TRAITORS HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>43099396I don't think so, I'd imagine it's just an aesthetic thing. From what I've seen merch seems to tend to do unicorn Twilight, though alicorn Twilight isn't unheard of.
>>43099402>>G1 styleHuh?
>>43099001>muh platform revenue moneyI shiggy diggy.Youtube now doesn't pay a single cent to content creators residing in Russia, but these creators never stopped posting there.Can you guess why?
>>43099365Not gonna watch soulless chinese garbage.
>>43098781>entire thread+9999 social credits to every anon>>43099415>doesn't pay a single cent to content creators residing in Russia, but these creators never stopped posting there.Because it's pure enthusiasm. But share of russian bloggers in YT VERY niche in comparison to level of 2021.
>>43099365chinese is just way too hard to learn to interact with the chinese fandom. it's always why so much stuff on the chinese internet goes untranslated
>>43099502>Because it's pure enthusiasmAnon, either you're too naive or this is bait.It's because YouTube is a platform for free promotion AND for ads integrated into content, payments for which are not blocked by any sanctions.Youtube ad revenue is not even 1% of what content creators earn.
>>43098781Not to discredit the artists that did a great job, but it didn't do anything to drive fandom interest. They made a hasbro ad for a chinese celebration I know nothing about, using the same story beats and status quo that's been done since Winter Wrap Up, in a language I can't understand. At least I chuckled at Fluttershy vs the blender.
>>43099533>Not to discredit the artists>Proceeds to discredit the artists
>>43099413Yes
>>43099402>>43099533Enjoy it while we have every once in a while. We won't get something like this anytime soon.
>>43099521I'd add that China is almost alien civilization with completely different cultural code. It'll make it difficult to interact with Chinese fandom too.>>43099531>YouTube is a platform for free promotionPromotion for WHO exactly? YT is banned in Russa and Russians have to watch it with VPN. From 10 of Russian, only 5, at best, still watching YT and don't watching RuTube/VKVideo. Yes, there are many channels primarily for russian-language ukrainian audience, but little channels for russian audience work on enthusiam or donations to Busty or other similar platforms.
>>43099535Disingenuous or obtuse.>>43099543>don't ask questions, just consume fan works, and get excited for next fan work.No thanks, I'm good.
i dont even like fluttershy but ears down concern is top cutethanks chyna
>>43098781>No English subsWtf am I supposed to do with this? I guess I could watch the animation, but it's kinda awkward when I have no clue what's going on.
>>43099574How about consume good fan work? >How would you know it's good? Standards are set low nowadays
>>43099413G4 is literally G1 of mlps existence if you haven't been paying attention G4 is the true "OG"
>>43099559>From 10 of Russian, only 5, at best, still watching YT and don't watching RuTube/VKVideoThe truth nuke is that 5 non-retards are better than a mix of 5 non-retards + 5 retards.Unironically, Russian YouTube became only better when those who cannot even install VPN were filtered out.
>>43098781I kneel
>>43099574>Not to discredit the artists, but they shouldn't have bothered animating this because it doesn't matter and is uninspired garbage
>>43098842This.The show was always intended to be SoL.Even in a brony documentary interview, Lauren Faust says that Season 1 (and presumably Season 2) was 83% of her vision and how she wanted FiM to look.Hasbro being a toy first company was only a part of why she left the show. It is not unreasonable to say that a major (and probably main) reason for Lauren Faust leaving FiM was her miscarriage and the subsequent depression.
>>43099415>He does not know about Boosty, the Soviet version of Patreon
>>43099559>From 10 of Russian, only 5, at best, still watching YT and don't watching RuTube/VKVideoAнoн, я личнo видeл кaк блядcкиe бaбки в oбщecтвeннoм тpaнcпopтe вpyбaли VPN для пpocмoтpa cвoeгo дepьмa

>>43098781Not bad.There's clear effort put into imitating the original show and the final image is pretty cute.My main issue with it has to do with how impersonal it feels. This doesn't have to do with him trying to imitate the show's style, but I don't feel I'm being told anything about the author other than "He likes My Little Pony".To put an example of an author being reflected by his work, Button Mash is a classic fan-made pony video imitating (way better) the show's animation. The difference here is that you can tell Jan has taken multiple inspirations from 2010's media to make this, even if he does not directly reference any of them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFe2MckUAC0On a different tangent, what's this obsession some of you have with the west losing and asians winning? art isn't a competition. Xing Jinping won't send you any of the cool MLP merch they have just for sucking his CCP cock. You're only getting the cheap shit Hasbro asked them to produce for the west.This whole thing reminds me why this franchise is so fucked up in the first place.You'll either clap like morons at Hasbro for even showing a glimpse of new G4 lore or clap like retards at any rice farmer for making surface level imitations of Friendship is Magic's art style.Whatever the case might be, you don't care about FiM as an piece of artwork but as a brand you must look at and say "I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!"

Based Chinese making high quality OC and keeping commercial pony markets alive. >43098781>43098931>43099402>All the other bitter faggots ITTIt's fucked up how faggots and third-worlders try to make everything into "X nation DOMINATES, Y nation will NEVER RECOVER". Can't you put pony above nationalistic dick-swinging? Even if there are serious geopolitical issues, which country makes the best pony animations is not one of them and bickering over it only serves the propaganda machine. >>43100130>I don't feel I'm being told anything about the author other than "He likes My Little Pony"I agree that the video doesn't try to tell a very sophisticated story, but I wouldn't say that taking inspiration from multiple pop culture sources makes a creative work more interesting, or even that a creative work needs to tell you about the author in order to have depth beyond surface-level aesthetics. It was really interesting how everything was adapted to Chinese culture, food, decorations, etc, but the "pony"-ness of it, especially the M6's expressions, was still preserved almost perfectly. It was neat how Applejack's verse was a modification of the melody from "Apples to the Core", and I bet there were more musical references that I missed. >what's this obsession some of you have with the west losing and asians winning?You're certainly right that it's retarded. A lot of this is also from masochistic westerners or resentful third-worlders.
>>43100447>high qualitypfft
>>43100130Wholly agree. Apparently it was a group of fanartists paid by Bilibili that made it, which has me curious to know if Bilibili or Hasbro had heavy limitations over what they were able to do. To compare another semi-official fan work, I like the way this ad was done https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Sw1TY9EMa/Fillies dancing to c-pop as moe blobs strays so far from anything you'd would expect from Hasbro that it's refreshing, even if it might be lacking personal touches due to corporate oversight.>>43099793Disingenuous.>43100447>bitterNext time I'll call it ching chong garbage with no redeeming qualities since that's all fandrones are reading anyway.
>>43100447>It's fucked up how faggots and third-worlders try to make everything into "X nation DOMINATES, Y nation will NEVER RECOVER".Anon, it's not about recovering of Y nation. It's about disgust to Y nation politics and culture (modern chinese culture is total brainrot).
>>43098982>turn Earth into Equestria!Yeah but it'll be filled with you retards and all your shit taste and ideas. I just wanna hunker down with me waifu, leave me alone.
Bumping for the most interesting thing in this year so far
>>43102229Chinks literally lifted animations from the show and mashed them together, it's not interesting or praise worthy no matter how much of a con$oomer you are.

>>43101233Damn, Bilibili pays fan artists to use stolen MLP assets for their animations? Based.>Disingenuous.No, perfectly ingenuous. The burden of proof that you didn't discredit the artists despite your disclaimer is entirely on you.
>>43098931>implessive, vewry good!besides the obvious shitposting I can see the subtle stuff that makes it look hand-animated instead of show-animated, I do see them using zip-lines but they're not the proper show-style (just mere solid lines instead of the more brush-y ones that MLP FiM actually uses). Has anypony even used Grant Beaudette's zip-lines from his tutorial video?
>people trying to spread fear, uncertainty, and doubt over a simple fan videoI want to see a full analysis to justify this stance.
>>43102636You have a semantic stick up your ass. The intent was to not discredit the effort and care put into the animation, but you failed to pick up an obvious social courtesy.
>>43099581you don't like Fluttershy?bruh
>>43103354No one here can speak that gobbledygook chink computer language. I think that’s pretty much it, aside from the normal shitposters.
>>43103354Still no justification why anyone should watch a chinkoid ad with stolen assets.
>>43104689>stolen>he suddenly cares about IP law when the Chinese don't respect it
>>43104926Yes. IP law should valid for asians, but not for white.

+ 10 Social Credit Score The West is not the world.
I am sufficiently increased to unleash a little autism.In the thread, many allegations have been made against this animation. All of them are false, and will fall apart with any scrutiny. >it uses stolen assets!There are many free Flash rigs of the characters publicly available like the Double Rainboom ones, there's no need to use the leaked ones. In fact, since the original rigs use proprietary plug-ins, it's impossible to use them without modification.>i can't understand what they're saying, so it's bad!The ponies are preparing for a Chinese festival of some kind, and they are all fucking up until they come together to help each other. I managed to gleam all of this while being held back by severe autism.>it's not what i expect in a fan episode!It's a music video with some cute animation alongside it, it's not meant to be a full episode.
>>43105050That's America for you.
>>43106404>>it uses stolen assets!And from where do you reckon does the asset for Rainbow's shit pie come from? STOOOOOLEEEEN HASBRO, INC. PROPERTY.

Before I watch is it Mandarin or Cantonese?
>>43098781Why is AJ's part reminiscent of Apples to the Core? Neat, but odd.
>>43108335I like the CMC zipping. They're adorable even if in generic-vector form.
>>43098781It's fine but meaningless to watch if I don't understand what they're saying anyway.
>>43110621If you watched what they were doing, I think you'd be able to deduce what's going on. A rough idea, perhaps.
>>43110311Yes.
It made by yellow tribe so me no like itIt's very cute I love ponies!
