When a fan animation gives spike and sombra better character development than the actual show ever could 😅 * but hey! still legendary animation no less!!!! * 💯🥶🔥
Holy shit. The idea behind this is frickin' incredible. I'd love to see Spike in the limelight like this for a change. It's much appreciated, all the time and work you put into this, but if this ever got touched up and made to run a little more smoothly, I think it would make it even more badass than it already is.
This is too cool! If only something like this could happen in the show. I love how the fight is getting more epic with each scene. 07:41 That animation is amazing.
Of all my years of being on youtube and being a brony, I don't think I have ever seen someone make one of the best characters of the show become a huge powerful badass, yes I mean Spike. Tronoid, your work is spectacular, and the way you made Spike, the seemingly weak dragon, a powerful drake, is amazing, I hope to see more of your outstanding work. ^_^
You have the gift of direction and cinematography. There are bits here and there that could use improvement (camera roll during action sequence, lighting, smoother animation), but your sense of direction is far better than several that I have seen. Good work.
I have to say, Tronoid, that I would love to see Spike's full potential unleashed in the show as you do. One possibility you have shown us in this video is very well done and extremely epic. Very well done as always :)
So basically "What if… Spike was the main character in an anime?" To be honest I feel like he specifically has a lot of potential as a dragon. You could easily say when he was hatched from Twilight's raw magical outburst he absorbed a lot of it. That's kind of the only reason as to why I can think he doesn't have wings despite every other one we've seen being capable of flight. And the fact he is used as a magical mailbox with his own magic being the source of how that is possible to begin with.
I've wondered if this video had eventually become lost to the sands of time. I'm glad to see that it isn't and that so many are still enjoying this, years later. @ Tronoid I don't know if you'll ever see this, but thank you. You created something special, here. More than likely you've moved on from making videos and to other things. But, I'd like you to know that it was this video (among many other sources) that served as the inspiration for my own creative ideas. It only goes to show that even characters like Spike have lots of untapped potential.
I always imagined the dragons in MLP to have some sort of magic that was exceedingly powerful! Like, perhaps the ponies sacrificed power for control over their magic, while the dragons chose power. Their magic is unpredictable and is more linked to their emotions. That would explain why we haven't seen it in the TV show. Just a little head cannon there!
This is just how a see it. Celestia found his egg, a rare purple dragon egg (Spyro Influence Much?) and saw it as a threat and/or was given it as a gift from spikes parents to look after. Celestia had put a sealing spell on him so that he could not access his potential as a purple - green dragon, one fuelled by not simply the element of greed, but the element of rage(possibly only accessed by pure hearted dragons?. After experiencing something traumatic he would break the sealing spell as the emotion inside him grows (or many even being broken by harmony?) until he completely releases it onto his enemy.
Some of the animation sequences and movements could have been faster-it was a little annoying that everything happened so slowly at first-but this is definitely an awesome creation! The animation is overall pretty good, the story, although it lacked setting and wasn't really explained, was well thought out, and the overall work and creativity put into it is amazing! Honestly, my favorite part is when Spike goes all out epic. He's a character that I've wanted to see as a boss for a looong time, probably since I first became a brony. Thanks for giving him such an awesome role, and congratulations on this video!
Very cool animation. The fight scene especially was very intense. My only complaint was the time leading up to it, it was really slow-paced IMHO. I ended up running it at 2x speed till 07:00. Maybe something to consider? Despite this, I think you did really good. Well done!
sorry for my late answer ! indeed, the beginning was supposed to be slow passed, but now that I see it after a week without looking at it even once, I think you are right, maybe I made it a little TO slow ! I could easily have cut more on some "takes" in order to "speed up " the sequences. Oh well, glad to hear that you liked it anyway ^^. Hope you are not the only one. ( those 26 like up there are kind of a give-away, but you know, misc-clicks are so common these days ; ) ! )
You know, I know this is old, but it still begs the question... When will Spike ever come into his own? Seriously. I always get the feeling the writers hate Spike for some reason, when really, he's probably the most likable character of all. There's a valid theory that's been roaming around, that since we have no clue how dragons hatch their eggs... It may be some form of draconic magic, considering it was Twilights magic that hatched him in the first place. This would explain his obvious difference in appearance from other dragons, being so small and having no wings. It's altogether possible that, just as Twilight became an alicorn through the accomplishment of certain trials, Spike may also have trials to overcome, and become something akin to an alicorn version of a dragon, possibly possessing some unicorn(or alicorn) magic seeing as how he was hatched in such a manner. It's really not too far fetched to think something like this would be feasible within the canon of the show. I highly doubt such a thing would happen due to the writers being unable to give us even one decent Spike episode... But hey, it could happen, right?
Dude this was super awesome. One thing though, in the future try slimming down the build up. By the time we got the twilight/spike flashbacks I was thinking WE GET IT ALREADY!!!!! GET ON WITH IT!!!! (insert monty python scene here). Otherwise a fantastic watch
Thank you.. this makes me Cry and happy, You done very well, :).. When I was little girl.. I used to be lonely, just like spike says.. But I got older, I got best friends and lots of friends :). Well done x
Strength of a thousand men by two steps from hell, you could not have chosen a better music score for this great little video. Have to say, anyone who likes this musical score needs to search two steps from hell, you will not be disappointed, it's amazing music.
i can imagine spike as an old dragon in the present remembering back to the begining of the 20th century. he would be like"back then we couldnt talk so we had interupt the dramatic scene with badly decorated words." But tip of the hat to the creater though for this amazing animation.
That was pretty awesome! I like how you implied that Celestia had sealed Spikes true power, likely because as a baby dragon that much power is dangerous. Though my favorite part was actually Spikes power-set. Did you pull that from Spyro: A New Beginning?
Earth...Ice...Electricity...and Fire...so he's not just a purple dragon, he is The Purple Dragon of Legend, destine to either leave his mark on this age, or destroy it. That was Fucking Epic, why can't Spike have character progression like that in the show
the fire i can understand but not he earth bending. even so it was pretty epic to see spike all fight for my friend with out going all Godzilla big and losing his ability to think clearly.
The battle had gone badly, his friends down, badly hurt , some possibly dead, in his grief for his friends and fear for himself and the fate of the realm, Spikes rage finally burst forth uncontrollably. It was then that Spike's true power awoke because of the grave threat to the realm and his friends that the would be king Sombra represents, and a new guardian of the realm is born.
This is amazing. And think about it, Spike has so much unused potential as a character. He doesn't know who or where his original family, he's a dragon meaning he can be this powerful. And have you noticed anything about all of the other dragons? Right, they all have wings. All dragons but Spike have wings. Spikes lack of wings may be thanks to Twilight. She hatched Spike after the sonic rainbow gave her all that magic energy. A bit _too_ much magic energy. And almost all of that magic was poured into Spike. That is more than likely to cause some sort of deformity. All that magic energy poured into him at birth will explain how Spike all of a sudden learns to harness that power in this video. I feel like the writers are missing out on a shit-ton of opportunities for episodes. They should use Spike to actually add some more story to MLP, and not for episodes where it shows him being greedy only to teach a valuable lesson at the end **COUGH COUGH** Princess Spike **COUGH**
Spike feels more for Twilight, because she's like a mother to him. Spike's reaction to seeing Twilight bleed out, was that of a child, whose foster mother has been harmed. The pent up rage, unleashed his hidden power.

Spike and Spyro!
Spike is the son of spyro and cynder the purple dragon race still lives oh yeah
YES!!
When a fan animation gives spike and sombra better character development than the actual show ever could 😅

I absolutely love this video!!! The effects, music selection, chorography, and action was fantastic! Truly a master piece!
This is why I love this fandom, because just about any character, no matter who they are, can become epic.
I want Spike to have a moment like this in the series finale.
YEEESS!!!!!!🎉
You have the gift of direction and cinematography. There are bits here and there that could use improvement (camera roll during action sequence, lighting, smoother animation), but your sense of direction is far better than several that I have seen. Good work.
Spike should definitely have his own Element of Harmony. And that element would be called, The Element of Courage.
omg yes he should
I have to say, Tronoid, that I would love to see Spike's full potential unleashed in the show as you do. One possibility you have shown us in this video is very well done and extremely epic. Very well done as always :)
I knew spike was powerful, but didn't know he was that powerful.
At first when viewing this, the word decent came to mind. When the action sequence started, I threw that thought away. This is baller as hell dude!
So basically "What if… Spike was the main character in an anime?"
To be honest I feel like he specifically has a lot of potential as a dragon. You could easily say when he was hatched from Twilight's raw magical outburst he absorbed a lot of it.

And the fact he is used as a magical mailbox with his own magic being the source of how that is possible to begin with.
The melancholy of Spike Sparkle
maybe just maybe he'll get wings this season but just just maybe
Also if you read comics the relationship between Twi and Spike it's very big.She took care of him since he was a baby with wasn't easy at all.
The Legend Of Spike confirmed XD
After years has passed and I still find such excitement just like my 8 year old self. Time really does fly so fast🥹
I remember watching this when I was 11, came back for the nostalgia and it's exactly how I remember it
I find this very enjoyable with the head canon of Spike himself making this video.
Epic Spike moment indeed! We finally see Spike in the spotlight.
I've wondered if this video had eventually become lost to the sands of time. I'm glad to see that it isn't and that so many are still enjoying this, years later.

Spike is the legendary purple dragon. (spyro crossover confirmed)
Damn! That is one Badass Dragon.
AW YEA SON!!!! Spike finally unlocked his ultimate power, The power of the Iron Fist of Friendship
spike has learned the elements of the purple dragon like spyro
*True words of wisdom*
Ok
The legendary purple dragon
From the legend of Spyro series?
@@gamenotifications5958 yes
7:11 *takes off scouter* It's power level is OVER 9000!!!
7:31 *WEEZE* LOL LOOK AT TWILYS FACE HAHHAH
You mean "Twilight's" and "WHEEZE"
I remember watching this when I was 5 and I didn't care what the hell was going on like *fRiCk*
That little dragon got the touch and got the power, Like the element of fire🔥🐲
I always imagined the dragons in MLP to have some sort of magic that was exceedingly powerful! Like, perhaps the ponies sacrificed power for control over their magic, while the dragons chose power. Their magic is unpredictable and is more linked to their emotions. That would explain why we haven't seen it in the TV show. Just a little head cannon there!
This goes well with "Break through it all".
that was amazing,spike just turned from cute sidekick to badass hero.
have bronies done reactions to this yet.
Tia "oh,no the seal's been broken " sombra "oh####, not good"
It was at that moment,that sombra realised....he fucked up XD
That was so sweet of twilight to give spike a kiss on the cheek during the opening sequence
This is just how a see it.
Celestia found his egg, a rare purple dragon egg (Spyro Influence Much?) and saw it as a threat and/or was given it as a gift from spikes parents to look after.

Spike could totally be Mlp's gohan is he got mad. He's most underrated pony
+Peter Cross I agree, The writers should involve him more.
Very cool animation. The fight scene especially was very intense.
My only complaint was the time leading up to it, it was really slow-paced IMHO. I ended up running it at 2x speed till 07:00. Maybe something to consider?

Hope you are not the only one. ( those 26 like up there are kind of a give-away, but you know, misc-clicks are so common these days ; ) ! )
I knew someone would make a video like this
Epic Spike?!
More like Fire God Spike
Epic Spike?! More fire god Spike
I remember how i use to watch this as a kid
Me : epically DABS
Spike : epically SPIKE

Spike is like Lloyd from Lego Ningago master of energy
Q
Troniod..
It's time to make the climax to the EPIC battle.
This time a serious one.
Dude this was super awesome. One thing though, in the future try slimming down the build up. By the time we got the twilight/spike flashbacks I was thinking WE GET IT ALREADY!!!!! GET ON WITH IT!!!! (insert monty python scene here). Otherwise a fantastic watch
Duly noted !
Are you spanish by any chance ?
Otherwise glad to hear that you liked my vid. ; )
Tronoid NO ONE EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION! Cough,,,,,no, no I am not.
It seemed long because he couldn't use actual voices at the time
Thank you.. this makes me Cry and happy, You done very well, :).. When I was little girl.. I used to be lonely, just like spike says.. But I got older, I got best friends and lots of friends :). Well done x
I certainly think I could come to like Spike, if they did just give him more than the Twi's blundering sidekick roll.
Thank you. I'm glad I'm not the only who noticed
Eeyup, he’s meant for so much more.
You seem to forget. He's still a baby.
NeoAnimeFreak _ He has a lot of potential.
@@neoanimefreak_7606 but that doesn't mean he can't do something like a secret power or something
Strength of a thousand men by two steps from hell, you could not have chosen a better music score for this great little video. Have to say, anyone who likes this musical score needs to search two steps from hell, you will not be disappointed, it's amazing music.
ok did anybody get chills near the last part at 7:26 when the women was humming!! I totally did!!!!!!
Makayla France Eeyup.

No.
A little bit
Makayla France YEZZZZ
And here we have Spike delivering an ass-kicking that us Spike lovers feel is long overdue.
It's a beautiful ass-kicking.

Oh my God please I beg of you make a part 2 and I never knew how big of a badass spike is

Wow spike is really epic and had a super power he is now as spike the super hero
Wow Spike you're the greatest of all dragons if you want to you could be my companion

Earth...Ice...Electricity...and Fire...so he's not just a purple dragon, he is The Purple Dragon of Legend, destine to either leave his mark on this age, or destroy it. That was Fucking Epic, why can't Spike have character progression like that in the show
Sombra: I a little dragon that looks really weak... *BETTER SEND A WHOLE ARMY OF SKELETON PONIES AT HIM*
Spike: SOMBRA!!!
Sombra: Hm??
Spike: YOU HURT MY FRIENDS AND MY FAMILY! THIS ENDS HERE!!!
It’s now 2021 and still waiting for part 2 🥺
OK THEY NEED TO MAKE SPIKE A BADASS DRAGON IN SEASON 5!
they already did in the equestira games
Button Mash .>> No he turned out to be a big chicken.>> I'm talking Kicking bad guys butt!
darth sarcom HOpe he'll be able to do that in Season 5
Matthew Adams
he was not a chicken he saved the crystal empire TWICE
Button Mash Very true, i'm just saying Spike he gets Scared very easily!
My god the fight scene was so epic the music choice brilliant and the cliff hanger will leave me biting my nails for days I absolutely love it
It's amazing what you can do with fruit punch and strawberry jam.
Dude, that was awesome! Very well done!
Awwwwww, that was cute what Twi did to Spike at the beginning ^_^

You will never reach the horizon you so desperately seek.
Oh shit! Spike is an Elder Dragon! RUUUUUNNN!!!
Well according to Historical Equestria 07: The Dragon King, Spike is actually the reborn King of Dragons Bahamut.

+Daniel Lee true
+Daniel Lee yeah like the gold ninja he has green powers
You are so right!
in season 8, spike will be getting wings
The thump nail was right that was epic. I sure hell enjoy this! 👍
Spike feels more for Twilight, because she's like a mother to him.
Spike's reaction to seeing Twilight bleed out, was that of a child, whose foster mother has been harmed.
The pent up rage, unleashed his hidden power.

@Tifa 900 the one make this video call him epic, I call him king of dragon and you call him the avatar this is boy is really has a lot of secret .
Your animation skills are good enough to get the point across, also that Rainbow dash wall impact animation is awesome!
At 1:00 I reacted with: "Hey... I don't ship that..."
Neither do I. I mean, they should have a mother-son relationship, and if it went beyond that, then it would be like incest!! Yuck!
shadpadilla well I do
Mike Magnus I do like twilight x spike Is better than spike x rarity
Twilights more of a mother to spike thats what i think
