Cozie Glow being a unicorn that doesnt like to use magic and Starburst an earth pony who yearns for it is such a cool thing! I can already imagine a ‘body swap episode’ where at first, theyre both quite happy (Starburst being delighted) but they eventually get to the conclusion that they wamt to be themselves the most, even if for Starburst thst means missing magic (hes actually so trans coded)
They make for really good counterparts to each other and have so much built in conflict! I really like how Starburst vs Cozy Glow and Whysteria vs Cherrie pie gives a tension to the friend group right from the start. Trixie struggling after getting her cutie mark could also pair well with Sol not having one yet (cause some anxiety for her)
I think the "they prefer to be themselves" thing can be added onto a bit. I can see starburst missing memorizing spells and learning about them, while cozy glow enjoys having the extra help of her magic for art. another small idea, I think that this episode would make cozy glow wanna look a bit more friendly so that she can feel comfortable selling stuff without looking unapproach-able, since starburst looks pretty friendly. this could lead to her using magic (or having her friends help) to change up her look a bit, moving forward into her arc (ALSO YES TRANS STARBURST WORLD DOMINATION ALTHOUGH I DONT KNOW IF HE'D BE TRANSMASC OR UNKNOWINGLY TRANSFEM..)
I can ABSOLUTELY see Starburst coaching Trixie every time she uses magic wrong (or just coaching Trixie in general?!?). Every. Single. Time. Without fail, not even in a life-or-death situation where they're running for their lives. The only times it doesn't happen is when Starburst is away from Trixie when it happens.
Oh i think its funnier if Trixie is sometimes annoyed with constant remarks from Starburst but at the very moment she Actually needed an advice she doesnt have him around and/or didnt listen close enough to his yapping about the very thing shes encountering.
@@its_4amm The only one who actually listens to Starbursts rambling is Cherry Pie, but she's not actually paying attention, if you get what I mean. Like listening to a little kid ramble about their hyperfixation of the week (Cherry Pie's clearly had practise with that).
YESSSSS (copy n pasting my reply from another comment) if theyre ever in a combat situation i can image him giving her spell instructions/advice and her begrudgingly taking it just to fix whatevers going on its a fun dynamic! a little similar to him giving magic advice to his dragon, except trixie has an ego and doesnt want it once they start tolerate each other trixie can start improving her magic and he can start improving his teaching skills (which is his dream!) , benefiting and bonding both! (trixie also gets closer to her goal of being a better magician!) maybe after development she actively seeks him out for help n stuff!
I have a fun idea for Sol! I think you could make Sol a protective younger sibling by making them constantly defending and fighting people for Starburst! They think they have to defend Starburst because of his destiny being seemingly unobtainable. This could take the protective older sibling trope and turn it on its head. It could also give Sol something to relate to with Cherry where Cherry can bring her wisdom to the table to help Sol. You can also have Sol have a secret, guilty fear that they will end up having a cutie mark like Starburst’s that will be seemingly impossible to achieve (which can play into the whole who we make ourselves to be, not what we were told to be thing)
The comment about Starburst being "born in the wrong body" and having an interest in magic that he can't act upon gave me huge trans vibes. I love this whole cast but I think Cozyglow, Cherry Pie, and Starburst are my favorites
Lil lore idea:What if the main 6 in this gen actually represents a stereotypical negative emotion like envy or arrogance and they have to find a way to figure out how to make those feelings positive if that make sense?for example,if the emotions they represent in envy instead of being envious of another pony they find a way to make it so that they can help set out goals to themself and what not.i think it’ll be really interesting for characters development!!
The moment you said Cherry Pie and Wysteria were foils/rivals me and my friends(who watched this together) all collectively shouted "LESBIANS! ARE THEY IN LESBIANS WITH EACH OTHER??" and I think that's beautiful. I love Wysteria is gorgeous by the way, I love the soft green-purple color pallet.
I feel like Cozy glow and Sun burst would get into a major argument about magic. He would be mad that she doesn't really use her magic and that she should be "grateful" she has magic.
37- yes I did count (I made a comment) and yes I probably did miss some- for a name idea, maybe Canter With Pride? Cantering as in, u know, horses. And pride as in knowing ur self worth? anyways, this was a great video! I love every character in this lol
Awesome!, I think that cozy glow and starburst would be good foils as well. A pony who wishes he could use magic and a unicorn who prefer not to use her magic it would be a interesting dynamic
That's exactly what I was thinking! I like the idea of slow burn arc of subconscious resentment. It wouldn't take up the whole show but it would be an important part of their development. A culmination moment I picture is them trying to solve a problem and Starburst goes through his spell book for the perfect spell and starts trying to coach Cozy glow to do it. And she kinda flippantly brushes him off saying something like "or I could just grab •insert tool•" So he snaps at her.
i agree with the comments linking starburst and transness, and honestly that was my first thought, but i actually relate to him a lot more on the disability front! i completely relate to having a passion, a dream, something you love and just KNOW you're supposed to be doing, that you cannot pursue because your body is not the way it "should" be. at least to do this specific thing. i was a circus performer until i was about 12 or 13, which was when i started showing more serious signs of my genetically inherited disability (ehlers-danlos syndrome). nowadays, i desperately want to perform again, but i know i can't just go back to doing what i did before, because i will destroy my already-deteriorating body. i also have a passion for clinical psychology and have wanted to become a therapist for about half my life now. but im currently dropping out of college after 2 years because of a combination of physical disability (EDS) and mental disabilities (autism and a learning disorder). on two fronts right now, i have to face the idea that i am (at least right now) physically incapable of doing the two things i think could really be my CALLING in life. i think starburst is in the same position with his lack of a horn. its a really difficult situation, and one a LOT of disabled people (kids included) go through. i think starburst's story could be a great thing for disabled kids and teens to see. no matter how you do it, as long as he gets some sort of happy ending that doesnt involve magically getting a horn, i think it would be comforting for disabled audiences.
Never even crossed my mind but I completely agree! I don’t have anything physical disability-wise, but I have quite a few mental disorders (namely autism, dyslexia and “specific learning disorder” (using “ bc I have no clue if that’s it’s proper name) that make my dream of being a fossil preparator (which needs a bachelor in a biology or geology science) feel almost like climbing Mt. Everest with only a t-shirt and shorts. Having a character in really any media with a similar struggle would be amazing, especially if they don’t just magically “cure” whatever the problem is. With that said, I really hope that you can find something EDS-friendly that you’re happy doing sometime Al ^^
@ScoopedKiwis thanks :) its just short term but ive been thinking of looking for a job at a local comic shop, in hopes that an independent business might be more accommodating of my disability. its not my dream, but its something in the meantime. good luck to you in fossil prep. paleontology is a fascinating field. hopefully you can find a route to your dreams :)
No way. I started aerial arts when i was around 10 and was diagnosed with EDS at 13. I continued to push through until 17 because lyra was the absolute love of my life and the only thing i wanted to do forever. But it became too much for my body and at 18 i had to stop due to constant injury. Its left such a deep hole in me KNOWING that its what im supposed to be doing, and i had known before i even started, but now I can’t anymore because of my body. There was a surprise silk performance at a motorcycle show i went to and i cried. I loved performing more than anything. And to add insult to injury, the studio i trained and taught at for years is now competing internationally and i missed that opportunity by one year. I still live vicariously through the girls i taught who are now using routines i helped them put together in their competitions, but its so bittersweet. Anyway, sorry to dump but i dont think i’ve ever related to an internet comment more in my life and it hit me like a brick
@sadiejane610 wow! small world. i hear EDS is common amongst former circus kids for some reason. someone from my old troupe is now a physical therapist (i see her 3x a week) and she sees a lot of former circus kids from the troupe. one of her own daughters also has EDS. maybe we're just attracted to it because of our flexibility... which backfires when we start hurting ourselves. anyways, i was a contortionist mainly but i also did lyra and static trap--i really want to get back into trapeze, but with my body how it is rn, i cant
@ contortion was my second fave but i had to phase out of that early on and focus more on strength for the sake of longevity. I still spend a couple hours a day on flexibility training now that I’ve had to stop just because it makes me feel better about not being in the air anymore, but i cant do most of my favorites anymore. The owner of the studio and our main trainer had a son with EDS, so she understood and worked with me a lot which is probably the only reason i was able to go as long as i did. I have noticed a lot of us circus folk with eds tho! As time passes more and more of our original core troupe is diagnosed, i wish i had more to offer them than commiseration but at least we have a group that understands 😅
I feel like when people do "next gen designs" they always stray far from the original building blocks (like the main 6 being the colors of the rainbow, being some kind of archetype, ...) but this lineup did it perfectly- also I am a big Trixie fan so I ADORE her being the main character yss pleaseeee
I love how you recognized what made gen 4 so strong: color palettes, personalities, dreams, talents, etc. and made sure you included it! You also did a really good job of making sure none of them were replicas of gen 4 mane 6 like i think gen 5 did. I think gen 5 tried so hard to copy its success. Your version feels like another natural generation of g4. This group has so much potential for chemistry/beef. Cherry trying to be a big sister to sol who doesn't need it, starburst being perpetually jealous of cozy glow and Trixie (and Trixie reveling in it), cherry pie and wysteria getting into arguments about working hard. I just feel like Trixie doesn't really fit. I don't know if it's how you introduced her last, but I feel like having a main character who has no clue what she wants to do could be REALLY powerful. Her watching the rest accomplish their goals while she still has no clue what she wants to do. Maybe she's one of the oldest and still doesn't have her cutie mark so always wears a cloak to cover it. Her being an earth pony could also help because she can't focus on magic or flying. It could also be a good leeway to becoming the alicorn princess (I am a fan of the main character becoming an alicorn. sue me) I just feel like her sassy demeanor isn't really contrasted by anyone.
omg I LOVE your ideas sm Trixie being the oldest and doesn't have a cutiemark??? And hiding it with her cloak?? peak. Maybe Sol ends up getting hers before Trixie and she ends up feeling even more insecure ab it...
i am sooo invested in how the dynamics between Starburst, Cozy Glow, and Trixie would turn out. Trixie being a unicorn who infamously flaunts her magic at every turn and Cozy Glow actively choosing NOT to use her magic - such two extremes that I KNOW Starburst would absolutely struggle with !!! it would be so interesting to see how ideas of envy and even possible resentment towards friends could be tackled here
My Little Pony: Mark of Destiny! That’s what came to mind. I love the designs, and I love how Starburst’s arc is him figuring out how to pursue his dream of magic as an earth pony. I would definitely watch this show for sure if it was created.
It'd be so cool at the end of the series if it's an episode where everyone's fulfilled their dreams. Like a little montage type thing with Starburst finishing a class and Sol coming in afterwards since they're a freshman in college then panning towards Wysteria and Cozy Glow working together (like Wysteria having commissioned Cozy's art for the grand opening of her business or something like that) then everyone shows up to either Cherry/Trixie's first super big performance!
6:56 honestly that’s fine! I think personally i would’ve absolutely gone bonkers bananas if one of the characters was secretly a changeling or something, but it makes total sense why keeping the main characters ponies would match g4’s essence more. I think if I were to make a mane 6, it would probably look something more like a mix of the student six and some ponies (maybe a dragon, a kirin, and a changeling+ 3 more ponies or something similar?) just because i love the worldbuilding around the different species they added :>
I HATE WATCHING REDESIGNS/SEQUEL DESIGNS BECAUSE I ALWAYS LOVE EVERYTHING AND GET SO ATTACHED AND THEN SAD ITS NOT REAL AAARRRGGHHHQCDJGDKSHS i absolutely ADORE. these characters i want a whole 2d animated show of them 😭🙏🏼♥︎♥︎♥︎ i think my fave is Cherry Pie and i like the idea anyway that she’s somehow a descendant of the Pie family even though you said she’s not directly related, i still think it could be an interesting concept! also I think if you did a part two, it would be fun if you threw in some voiceclaims! like how you would imagine they’d sound/who their voice actors would be :)) but idk! overall loved this video ♥︎
12:16 I love g5 but I 100% agree lol the only really appearance wise trait they had of being siblings was being Pegasi. You literally could pair ANY other character though and say they were siblings. Like Pipp and Izzy could pass, Hitch and Sunny. It’s kinda ironic.
7:30 fun fact, the entirety of the mane six came from earlier generations ! Both Twilight and Apple Jack are from G1 and Fluttershy is from G3, heck even Spike existed already in G1
Oooo I really like the transition from focusing from something basic to something more young adult in a way Especially with the play on cutie marks Also I think MLP: Fate and destiny Since fate is something out of someone's control like the characters struggling to gain something they wish because of no magic or personality and destiny they're trying to push to do what they love but feel they cant
I've never been the biggest mlp fan ( I watched it in passing ) but this? THIS destroyed my art block. I love the story, the concept, and you can already feel the characters in a way.
I haven't even finished the video, I'm at 8:46, and I'm just so happy that Starburst sounds like a trans allegory because Sunburst always reads like a he/they transmasc (I may have been projecting a bit...), but I also just like it because I think about this being an actual kid show, and I can't tell you how much I would appreciate a trans allegory like that that I could've related to as a kid. EDIT: I. Love. This. Also, i love the idea of a dragon pet for StarBurst, but i really would like the idea of Starburst cracking a magical code and making POTIONS....Idk i think thatd be SO cool
I feel like Starburst but also fall onto/discover like in ancient magic that you didn't need a horn for. For example: ancient ruins or how to make/use wands
These designs are so good, like oh my days I’m in love with Cherry Pie!! Just based on the short backstories I feel like I would favor Cozy Glow as a character, but Cherry design wise 🤭✨ These are so good!! RAGAGEHDJDJDJ
I love how even with small descriptions, you can immediately tell how these characters would have such great chemistry together. Starburst and Trixie, Cozy Glow and Trixie, Cherry Pie and Sol, Wysteria and Cozy Glow, Trxie and Wysteria They all have such amazing potential for character work and I want all of it
3:56 They don't! The g4 mane six share colors across their designs and to me...they always felt distinct to each other. The g5 mane six somehow mesh together in my mind. They don't have the same color-coded characters like g4 did.
This is so awesome!!! Snatching old ponies to make them relevent is actually a great idea considering that My Little Pony has always done it--- I'm just here loving every single one of your videos over there! Tho, maybe i'm just blind af but the sketch that you did for Trixie looks alot like her special ability is knitting--- Ohh and yess, the tradition : self insert (love the design fkkkffjz) And ohhh the lore that you prepared for this gen 6 is so interesting! I just wish we had something like that as a follow up 😭
I love these designs!! I really like Starbust, and his story idea you had for him! Now I'm curious how he got his cutie mark, cause if he can't do the magic how'd he do it to get his mark? Did he correct a spell or something? A possible name for his familiar could be something funnily formal (Augustus Thaddeus III as a more human example) or maybe something his sister named and you can clearly tell? The second option could show how it doesn't really listen to him, refusing any of the names he gives but accepting a possibly dumb sounding one from his sister! Also (and I know this was probably unintentional-) he's set up to be a body dismorphia/disphoria story, feeling he's in the wrong one in all, and I thought that was interesting! I think all of them have amazing potential, and their stories could be really really good!
I definitely want to see a Part 2. You definitely make some side characters especially those that'll interact with your mane cast like with how G4 had characters such as Trixie, Discord, Starlight, Sunburst, Mayor Mare, Mrs Cake and all that. And definitely like see bits of lore for your G6.
My personal idea is "My little pony : the song of heart" Because your generation talk about feelings, destiny, hopes of each poney and realise your dream and I think that song and heart can be super names for your story !
Yes I gotta agree with you. The main six from G5 is so colorblinded (for me at least) I be squinting at them like that one meme where Winnie the Pooh squinting at paper, ESPECIALLY ZIPP STORM. She look like someone oc who got added in the mlp movie
I love these design so much, you did such a great job designing them! Visually, my favorite is Cherry Pie. You're completely right that those colors just look so pretty together. I also really like Wysteria's color scheme; it's so interesting and unique! During your last redesign where you made Cozy Glo, she was my favorite, although my one critique here is that her having only cool tones of indigo makes her feel a _little_ too cold to be "cozy". As you were designing her in the video I kept imagining you adding tiny yellow spots/speckles somewhere (such as on her coat, although I think tiny hair pieces/clips would work even better. There's also metal cuffs/rings that are put on braids and dreads) that would remind me of fairylights (or stars) and bring just that slight needed feeling of coziness to her design. I absolutely love that you've made Starburst an earthpony with an affinity for magic. I don't think his character writing would benefit by gaining a horn/magic later in the series, but I _do_ think it could be fun if he attained a magical artifact that enables him to "perform" some kind of magic. Either he attains it _after_ he's accepted he doesn't need to be able to do magic (so it's just a bonus), or it's used in the plot of a singular episode where he becomes obsessed with it and slowly continues to lock himself in his room; becoming completely reliant on it and going kinda crazy about it until his friends destroy it for his won good. Or Starburst himself destroys it when it turns evil and starts destroying things. he doesn't want to destroy it because he finally got a taste of performing magic, but eventually comes to terms that it needs to be done. It's through this episode that he finally accepts that he doesn't need to be able to perform magic to do the things he wants to do. Sol having small wings made me so happy that you kept that in her design. I think she could be an easy example of writing disabled ponies (which I think the only one we have gotten was Tempest from the MLP movie). In her case not being able to fly. And it wouldn't even be "difficult" to do since most ponies can't fly. The only thing to be concerned about is the character writing for her not being able to fly. I know her character has trepidations about being able to fly, so writers would just need to be careful about not going with the "woe is me" personality. I don't know if you intend for her character to one day be able to fly, but I hope she gets to stay earthbound since we have a lack of disabled ponies. I think it would be cool if one day in the show she gets to meet another pegasus (this one has part of their wing missing due to a childhood accident) who can't fly, and they're able to bond over this shared difference while Sol's new friend aids her in seeing that your life can be completely fulfilling despite not being able to fly. Maybe Sol can even have an episode (similar to Starburst's which I just described) where she has functional wings and eventually learns she doesn't need them to fulfill her life. In fact I think all 6 should get episodes (maybe two parters?) where they learn what they want in life/want to be/want to have/ isn't something they need (like with Trixie learning her dreams will take hard work). Kind of like how Shrek in the beginning of his movie wants peace and solitude, but by the end of his film learns that what he needed was friendship, companionship, and love (both platonic and romantic) Anyways sorry for the rant. I really love how creative you are with your art and it really inspires me. I hope my ideas and critiques inspire you! (and I apologize if they sound harsh at all)
i don't intend to give sol the ability to fly!! just like scootaloo in friendship is magic her wings will stay small, but she finds other ways to get around!! both of them are supposed to be allegories for different types of disabilities so i have no intention of altering either of them physically! they'll learn that there are other ways for them to do the things they love! :3
I love how you kept it so recognizable and yet every design was their complete own, and looks like a new style of ponies. You did this by giving them patterns and hairstyles that were interesting and unique from gen 4! And I love the story you’re brewing. It’s is own thing and yet not far from what makes mlp, mlp.
THIS is what i expected from g5, your designs and thoughts r like EXACTLY what we need from a new gen. I love all of these ponies sm. The only thing I’d say I didn’t like is the repetitive coat pattern on most of em, like it makes sense for Sol n Starburst but everyone havin it is a but much lol. But that’s subjective and regardless i still love all the designs !!!
@@inkiio I know another comment pointed out Cozy Glow's design, but maybe full a darker little almost cape/mantle type mpattern (think a mask and manlte type white spotting pattern on a cat, just just the below the neck part) with some little white/golden speckles in the darker part. Different kinds of real life animal patterns (primarily horses, but cats, deer, dogs could also work) could be a great source of inspiration. EDIT: Trixie but her coat pattern is inspired by a marsh deer. I have thoughts but I'll leave it at that.
I can definitely see the conflict between cozie glow and starburst... like, imagine an episode where starburst becomes obsessed with the fact that cozie never uses her magic and follows her around, kinda giving her excuses to use it and she repeatedly refuses.. then starburst blows up on her at the end and then she explains why she thinks using her hooves is so much better (and starburst finally understands her a bit - and himself)
I’d love to see this concept and story unfold as a series! Your designs are amazing. I think there is so much potential for this, maybe a smaller conflict with Cozy glow who doesn’t use magic and Starburst who can’t but wants to, I love it so much! I think Cozy glow and Cherry Pie have to be my favourite characters here :D
Aaa they look so good, I love them! They all look awesome. My favorite design is Cherry Pie, I adore her color scheme and beautiful pigtail braids!! Wysteria is a close second- her mane?? Gorgeous. With that big bow on top??? Aaaaa 🤌 She is serving
I can totally see Trixie and Cherry Pie working at the diner as waitresses together, Trixie is there to begin getting money for her props while Cherry Pie is just supporting her family, and the owners would be very helpful to them as well!!
if they set G6 in the FIM universe still, I wouldn't be mad as long as they put a bat pony in the main cast! it would be the perfect excuse to show the bat pony homelands!
my little pony: understanding life as an adult Im just joking! I literally love this idea of yours! I’d love to see more about it. I think my favorite is starburst, his little dragon friend is so cute!
Mlp: Destined Mark (or Path) ✨ What I would also really like to hear about is how they manage to stay close as a friend group, when all of them have such individual dreams and goals for their life! I absolutely adore the designs and would love a part two! :D
MLP: Path of Promise has nice double-meaning, both for the promise they think their cutie mark gives them, and for the promise of potential they all actually have. PS: I love all of them and I want more sibling details, especially for our mane 6 duo. I love that Cherry Pie is a down-to-earth Pegasus!! I love how you play with stereotype and trope subversion in your character building!
Very cute video, would love to see more of these concepts like how they got their cutiemarks? Is it another Gen 4 situation of it being connected events? Also Throwing my hat in to say, My Little Pony: Breaking Fates since its about them trying to find out how to make their dreams come true when the odds are stacked against them. thats enough of me yapping, Love your vids, can't wait to see more!
I am so obsessed with this, I can't explain how much I am in love with their stories and designs. I so want to draw them, I honestly wish I had come up with this idea its so good. I want to turn them in to clay sculptures. I'm rambling, I know but I can't get over them, ahhh their amazing!! Also how about My Little Pony: Mark of Destiny My Little Pony: Fortunate Friendships My Little Pony: Behoof to Believe My Little Pony: Wishing on a Mark My Little Pony: Believing and Achieving
name suggestion: paint your purpose also all these designs are so cute! i especially love the concept of an earth pony whose destiny is magic (with a dragon pal who will not listen!)
I have three possible titles for Gen 6, my little pony: make your destiny, my little pony: find your dream or my little pony: create your dream(or destiny).
i love the video, wysteria's design is my favorite. the background music from kirby's return to dream land and kirby's epic yarn made me so happy and nostalgic
This is so fun, and very great designs! This kind of content, completely original generations, is kind of rare in the MLP fandom, I always love finding more of them!
honestly since i have way too much free time, i avtually WILL count how many times you say generation- yeah, im going to regret this.. 1. 0:01 2. 0:20 3. 0:30 4. 0:31 5. 0:34 6. 0:48 7. 0:53 8. 0:57 9. 1:00 Quick note, 9 times in a minute??? 💀💀💀 And I might have missed some too- 10. 1:02 11. 1:06 12. 1:15 13. 1:19 14. 1:21 15. 1:26 16. 1:43 17. 2:17 18. 2:39 19. 2:43 20. 2:52 21. 3:22 22. 3:53 23. 4:10 24. 4:27 25. 4:34 26. 5:30 27. 7:22 28. 7:23 29. 7:27 30. 9:14 31. 9:21 32. 9:22 33. 9:39 34. 11:28 Note: I almost missed this one- I'm getting to the point I can't think of generation as a word 💀 Also at the same timestamp, in the text it says gen? I won't count it but just mentioning 35. 12:03 It's the word gen, so I'm counting it? 36. 12:07 37. 12:40 *FINAL COUNT* Its 37 in total! Do I regret this? Absolutely, I am exhausted right now. This was a great video tho! I love your art style and each of the ponies!
If a part two is made I think it would be amazing if we got more lore on the characters and their backgrounds, and maybe even more on how the characters interact with each other! I love the character designs and I’m excited to see what’s next!
Cherry Pie is easily my favorite. I love her design, I love the stories that can come from her big family. I also love how you draw pegasi, with the colored hooves and tipped wings.
i ADORE these designs!! they feel like a perfect blend of g3 and g4. totally getting tick tick...boom! and later glee season vibes when it comes to the story!
I LOVEEEE TRIXIE AND THE REST OF THSE ARE SOOO COOL. i WISH this was FOR REAL. PLEASdshjkdhjkf i think my least favorite design is wysteria, the teal and purple is just not doing it for me. I love her archetype though, pacifica is such a great character to draw from!! if the other characters werent so beautiful in their color choices i dont think i wouldve even thought she looked any bit out of place- cozy glow DOES look a lot like twilight! not entirely a bad thing but it really does push the braincells there for me. When i was watching the design my brain went... blue coat wouldve been nice!! ofc then we got to trixie and I LOVE TRIXIE!! if it were me idk what other palette to choose; the one you chose is by far my favorite, but for some reason its just feels more familiar compared to all the other repurposed characters ;w; favs are def sol and trixie!! i love that the designs you DID repurpose are both of more minor characters and also having such a unique spin!! sol/starburst being siblings is interesting because theyre so different, but i think that cherry pie and starburst are a older sibling duo! i could def see them becoming best friends and working well with each other. I think cozy glow has the hardest time entering the others dynamics, since shes early twilight personality -- no parties, socializing, ect. probably gets excited for other people to talk about art. starburst and cozy glow being foils of eachother is awesome; but there arent a lot of similarities for her to relate to the other members, nor a big driving force like gen4 had. I think her and trixie's dynamic would def be one of my faves though, with a introvert - extrovert dynamic. Them being friends feels right! overall, i love these a lot C:
THESE ARE SO CUUTE!! Definitely my favorite next gen designs I've seen! I especially love Cherry Pie. As an oc artist I love how much thought was put into each one, and their dynamics with eachother!! 💖
Completely new to your channel and I have to say I LOVE your style so far!! Definitely subscribing and I hope you continue to develop on these characters they are really well thought out!
Cozie Glow being a unicorn that doesnt like to use magic and Starburst an earth pony who yearns for it is such a cool thing! I can already imagine a ‘body swap episode’ where at first, theyre both quite happy (Starburst being delighted) but they eventually get to the conclusion that they wamt to be themselves the most, even if for Starburst thst means missing magic (hes actually so trans coded)
I LOVE THIS!!
YES YES
I lowkey think it could be a one sided “hate” thing on starbursts part
They make for really good counterparts to each other and have so much built in conflict! I really like how Starburst vs Cozy Glow and Whysteria vs Cherrie pie gives a tension to the friend group right from the start. Trixie struggling after getting her cutie mark could also pair well with Sol not having one yet (cause some anxiety for her)
I think the "they prefer to be themselves" thing can be added onto a bit. I can see starburst missing memorizing spells and learning about them, while cozy glow enjoys having the extra help of her magic for art. another small idea, I think that this episode would make cozy glow wanna look a bit more friendly so that she can feel comfortable selling stuff without looking unapproach-able, since starburst looks pretty friendly. this could lead to her using magic (or having her friends help) to change up her look a bit, moving forward into her arc (ALSO YES TRANS STARBURST WORLD DOMINATION ALTHOUGH I DONT KNOW IF HE'D BE TRANSMASC OR UNKNOWINGLY TRANSFEM..)
I can ABSOLUTELY see Starburst coaching Trixie every time she uses magic wrong (or just coaching Trixie in general?!?). Every. Single. Time. Without fail, not even in a life-or-death situation where they're running for their lives. The only times it doesn't happen is when Starburst is away from Trixie when it happens.
Oh i think its funnier if Trixie is sometimes annoyed with constant remarks from Starburst but at the very moment she Actually needed an advice she doesnt have him around and/or didnt listen close enough to his yapping about the very thing shes encountering.
@@its_4amm The only one who actually listens to Starbursts rambling is Cherry Pie, but she's not actually paying attention, if you get what I mean. Like listening to a little kid ramble about their hyperfixation of the week (Cherry Pie's clearly had practise with that).
YESSSSS
(copy n pasting my reply from another comment)
if theyre ever in a combat situation i can image him giving her spell instructions/advice and her begrudgingly taking it just to fix whatevers going on
its a fun dynamic! a little similar to him giving magic advice to his dragon, except trixie has an ego and doesnt want it
once they start tolerate each other trixie can start improving her magic and he can start improving his teaching skills (which is his dream!) , benefiting and bonding both! (trixie also gets closer to her goal of being a better magician!)
maybe after development she actively seeks him out for help n stuff!
I'm thinking,,, "more than your mark" or "more to your mark" if you get the drift
Dream Chasers is also an idea
I LOVEE more than ur mark
OOOO!! I love both!
Oohh both sound great!!
Dream Chasers is so good.
Dream chasers is actually killer what. I love it omg
my little pony: finding our destinies
so real
Ohhh I love that
YES.
Yes I had the same idea! I think it fits perfectly as a name for gen6 :D
Oooo I had something similar, My Little Pony: Choose your destiny
I have a fun idea for Sol! I think you could make Sol a protective younger sibling by making them constantly defending and fighting people for Starburst! They think they have to defend Starburst because of his destiny being seemingly unobtainable. This could take the protective older sibling trope and turn it on its head. It could also give Sol something to relate to with Cherry where Cherry can bring her wisdom to the table to help Sol. You can also have Sol have a secret, guilty fear that they will end up having a cutie mark like Starburst’s that will be seemingly impossible to achieve (which can play into the whole who we make ourselves to be, not what we were told to be thing)
YOUR BRAIN IS SO HUGE
@@inkiio Ah, thank youuu!
"My little pony: tread your trail" might be a bit complicated, but I liked it :)
OHH I LOVE THIS
@@slightlywarmtea thanks, that makes me so happy! :D
SO GOOD
Oooff that’s actually really good
The comment about Starburst being "born in the wrong body" and having an interest in magic that he can't act upon gave me huge trans vibes. I love this whole cast but I think Cozyglow, Cherry Pie, and Starburst are my favorites
THISSS
Putting trans metaphor in kids cartoon is my favorite thing
REAL AH
Trans metaphor! :D
Maybe he could find a way to become a unicorn, maybe through a spell or a fake horn (like an opposite binder :>)
TRANS SYMBOLISM FOR THE WIIINNNNN!!!!!
Lil lore idea:What if the main 6 in this gen actually represents a stereotypical negative emotion like envy or arrogance and they have to find a way to figure out how to make those feelings positive if that make sense?for example,if the emotions they represent in envy instead of being envious of another pony they find a way to make it so that they can help set out goals to themself and what not.i think it’ll be really interesting for characters development!!
omg i love this idea
Yesss
a selfish character will become self loving
a rude character will convert their insults to proper critiques
a bossy character becomes a leader.
@@strawburiedalive ooo I love those
I would never have thought of using negative emotions what a good idea that could add so much depth
The moment you said Cherry Pie and Wysteria were foils/rivals me and my friends(who watched this together) all collectively shouted "LESBIANS! ARE THEY IN LESBIANS WITH EACH OTHER??" and I think that's beautiful. I love Wysteria is gorgeous by the way, I love the soft green-purple color pallet.

My little pony: time to shine
I like this title the best
I feel like Cozy glow and Sun burst would get into a major argument about magic. He would be mad that she doesn't really use her magic and that she should be "grateful" she has magic.
THIS
count how many times i say generation
HAhAH realll
nuhuh
37- yes I did count (I made a comment) and yes I probably did miss some-
for a name idea, maybe Canter With Pride? Cantering as in, u know, horses. And pride as in knowing ur self worth? anyways, this was a great video! I love every character in this lol
New shot game!
At least 2 times probably
Awesome!, I think that cozy glow and starburst would be good foils as well. A pony who wishes he could use magic and a unicorn who prefer not to use her magic it would be a interesting dynamic
i was thinking this too omg
That's exactly what I was thinking! I like the idea of slow burn arc of subconscious resentment. It wouldn't take up the whole show but it would be an important part of their development. A culmination moment I picture is them trying to solve a problem and Starburst goes through his spell book for the perfect spell and starts trying to coach Cozy glow to do it. And she kinda flippantly brushes him off saying something like "or I could just grab •insert tool•" So he snaps at her.
Starburst: [shaking Cozyglow] "do you know how many times I've wished to have your abilities!?"
i agree with the comments linking starburst and transness, and honestly that was my first thought, but i actually relate to him a lot more on the disability front! i completely relate to having a passion, a dream, something you love and just KNOW you're supposed to be doing, that you cannot pursue because your body is not the way it "should" be. at least to do this specific thing.
i was a circus performer until i was about 12 or 13, which was when i started showing more serious signs of my genetically inherited disability (ehlers-danlos syndrome). nowadays, i desperately want to perform again, but i know i can't just go back to doing what i did before, because i will destroy my already-deteriorating body.
i also have a passion for clinical psychology and have wanted to become a therapist for about half my life now. but im currently dropping out of college after 2 years because of a combination of physical disability (EDS) and mental disabilities (autism and a learning disorder).
on two fronts right now, i have to face the idea that i am (at least right now) physically incapable of doing the two things i think could really be my CALLING in life. i think starburst is in the same position with his lack of a horn. its a really difficult situation, and one a LOT of disabled people (kids included) go through. i think starburst's story could be a great thing for disabled kids and teens to see. no matter how you do it, as long as he gets some sort of happy ending that doesnt involve magically getting a horn, i think it would be comforting for disabled audiences.
Never even crossed my mind but I completely agree! I don’t have anything physical disability-wise, but I have quite a few mental disorders (namely autism, dyslexia and “specific learning disorder” (using “ bc I have no clue if that’s it’s proper name) that make my dream of being a fossil preparator (which needs a bachelor in a biology or geology science) feel almost like climbing Mt. Everest with only a t-shirt and shorts. Having a character in really any media with a similar struggle would be amazing, especially if they don’t just magically “cure” whatever the problem is.
With that said, I really hope that you can find something EDS-friendly that you’re happy doing sometime Al ^^
@ScoopedKiwis thanks :) its just short term but ive been thinking of looking for a job at a local comic shop, in hopes that an independent business might be more accommodating of my disability. its not my dream, but its something in the meantime. good luck to you in fossil prep. paleontology is a fascinating field. hopefully you can find a route to your dreams :)
No way. I started aerial arts when i was around 10 and was diagnosed with EDS at 13. I continued to push through until 17 because lyra was the absolute love of my life and the only thing i wanted to do forever. But it became too much for my body and at 18 i had to stop due to constant injury. Its left such a deep hole in me KNOWING that its what im supposed to be doing, and i had known before i even started, but now I can’t anymore because of my body. There was a surprise silk performance at a motorcycle show i went to and i cried. I loved performing more than anything. And to add insult to injury, the studio i trained and taught at for years is now competing internationally and i missed that opportunity by one year. I still live vicariously through the girls i taught who are now using routines i helped them put together in their competitions, but its so bittersweet. Anyway, sorry to dump but i dont think i’ve ever related to an internet comment more in my life and it hit me like a brick
@sadiejane610 wow! small world. i hear EDS is common amongst former circus kids for some reason. someone from my old troupe is now a physical therapist (i see her 3x a week) and she sees a lot of former circus kids from the troupe. one of her own daughters also has EDS. maybe we're just attracted to it because of our flexibility... which backfires when we start hurting ourselves.
anyways, i was a contortionist mainly but i also did lyra and static trap--i really want to get back into trapeze, but with my body how it is rn, i cant
@ contortion was my second fave but i had to phase out of that early on and focus more on strength for the sake of longevity. I still spend a couple hours a day on flexibility training now that I’ve had to stop just because it makes me feel better about not being in the air anymore, but i cant do most of my favorites anymore. The owner of the studio and our main trainer had a son with EDS, so she understood and worked with me a lot which is probably the only reason i was able to go as long as i did. I have noticed a lot of us circus folk with eds tho! As time passes more and more of our original core troupe is diagnosed, i wish i had more to offer them than commiseration but at least we have a group that understands 😅
I feel like when people do "next gen designs" they always stray far from the original building blocks (like the main 6 being the colors of the rainbow, being some kind of archetype, ...) but this lineup did it perfectly- also I am a big Trixie fan so I ADORE her being the main character yss pleaseeee
I love how you recognized what made gen 4 so strong: color palettes, personalities, dreams, talents, etc. and made sure you included it! You also did a really good job of making sure none of them were replicas of gen 4 mane 6 like i think gen 5 did. I think gen 5 tried so hard to copy its success. Your version feels like another natural generation of g4.
This group has so much potential for chemistry/beef. Cherry trying to be a big sister to sol who doesn't need it, starburst being perpetually jealous of cozy glow and Trixie (and Trixie reveling in it), cherry pie and wysteria getting into arguments about working hard.
I just feel like Trixie doesn't really fit. I don't know if it's how you introduced her last, but I feel like having a main character who has no clue what she wants to do could be REALLY powerful. Her watching the rest accomplish their goals while she still has no clue what she wants to do. Maybe she's one of the oldest and still doesn't have her cutie mark so always wears a cloak to cover it. Her being an earth pony could also help because she can't focus on magic or flying. It could also be a good leeway to becoming the alicorn princess (I am a fan of the main character becoming an alicorn. sue me) I just feel like her sassy demeanor isn't really contrasted by anyone.
omg I LOVE your ideas sm
Trixie being the oldest and doesn't have a cutiemark??? And hiding it with her cloak?? peak.
Maybe Sol ends up getting hers before Trixie and she ends up feeling even more insecure ab it...
i am sooo invested in how the dynamics between Starburst, Cozy Glow, and Trixie would turn out. Trixie being a unicorn who infamously flaunts her magic at every turn and Cozy Glow actively choosing NOT to use her magic - such two extremes that I KNOW Starburst would absolutely struggle with !!!
it would be so interesting to see how ideas of envy and even possible resentment towards friends could be tackled here
Ah! Cherry Pie is my favorite! What about "My Little Pony: Path of Destiny" ?
Ooo that's a good one
I like this one 😮
Thats nice
My Little Pony: Mark of Destiny!
That’s what came to mind. I love the designs, and I love how Starburst’s arc is him figuring out how to pursue his dream of magic as an earth pony. I would definitely watch this show for sure if it was created.
Ooh, that’s good, but maybe something like Destiny’s Mark?
@@funfully149 Ooo, that's a good one too
It'd be so cool at the end of the series if it's an episode where everyone's fulfilled their dreams. Like a little montage type thing with Starburst finishing a class and Sol coming in afterwards since they're a freshman in college then panning towards Wysteria and Cozy Glow working together (like Wysteria having commissioned Cozy's art for the grand opening of her business or something like that) then everyone shows up to either Cherry/Trixie's first super big performance!
6:56 honestly that’s fine! I think personally i would’ve absolutely gone bonkers bananas if one of the characters was secretly a changeling or something, but it makes total sense why keeping the main characters ponies would match g4’s essence more. I think if I were to make a mane 6, it would probably look something more like a mix of the student six and some ponies (maybe a dragon, a kirin, and a changeling+ 3 more ponies or something similar?) just because i love the worldbuilding around the different species they added :>
Great designs I love Cozyglow!! Random title idea My Little Pony Dream Catchers. I don't know I think it fits
I HATE WATCHING REDESIGNS/SEQUEL DESIGNS BECAUSE I ALWAYS LOVE EVERYTHING AND GET SO ATTACHED AND THEN SAD ITS NOT REAL AAARRRGGHHHQCDJGDKSHS
i absolutely ADORE. these characters i want a whole 2d animated show of them 😭🙏🏼♥︎♥︎♥︎ i think my fave is Cherry Pie and i like the idea anyway that she’s somehow a descendant of the Pie family even though you said she’s not directly related, i still think it could be an interesting concept! also I think if you did a part two, it would be fun if you threw in some voiceclaims! like how you would imagine they’d sound/who their voice actors would be :)) but idk! overall loved this video ♥︎
OMG I WISH THIS WAS A REAL SHOW I WOULD WATCH IT ALL THE TIME THE PREMIS IS SO COOL :D
Love the video! These characters seems so fun and interesting!
Title Suggestions :
Trot (or) Chart Your Path!
Find Your Way!
Follow Your Heart!
Ohhh Trot Your Path is so cute!!
12:16 I love g5 but I 100% agree lol the only really appearance wise trait they had of being siblings was being Pegasi. You literally could pair ANY other character though and say they were siblings. Like Pipp and Izzy could pass, Hitch and Sunny. It’s kinda ironic.
Until I saw some of G5, I thought Sunny and Hitch were either siblings or "the couple" with how closely they were designed.
@@amesstarline5482 same
7:30 fun fact, the entirety of the mane six came from earlier generations ! Both Twilight and Apple Jack are from G1 and Fluttershy is from G3, heck even Spike existed already in G1
that's why it made me so sad they didn't do it for g5! there are tons of cool ponies from earlier generations i'd love to revamp eventually!!
Oooo I really like the transition from focusing from something basic to something more young adult in a way
Especially with the play on cutie marks
Also I think
MLP: Fate and destiny
Since fate is something out of someone's control like the characters struggling to gain something they wish because of no magic or personality and destiny they're trying to push to do what they love but feel they cant
I've never been the biggest mlp fan ( I watched it in passing ) but this? THIS destroyed my art block. I love the story, the concept, and you can already feel the characters in a way.
I haven't even finished the video, I'm at 8:46, and I'm just so happy that Starburst sounds like a trans allegory because Sunburst always reads like a he/they transmasc (I may have been projecting a bit...), but I also just like it because I think about this being an actual kid show, and I can't tell you how much I would appreciate a trans allegory like that that I could've related to as a kid. EDIT: I. Love. This. Also, i love the idea of a dragon pet for StarBurst, but i really would like the idea of Starburst cracking a magical code and making POTIONS....Idk i think thatd be SO cool
So glad I’m not the only one who thought of Starburst using potions!!
I feel like Starburst but also fall onto/discover like in ancient magic that you didn't need a horn for. For example: ancient ruins or how to make/use wands
@@sofiacherwick8510 that's what I was thinking! He could open a magic school for witchcraft!
@sofiacherwick8510 I didn't even think of that!! That'd be so cool!
These designs are so good, like oh my days I’m in love with Cherry Pie!!
Just based on the short backstories I feel like I would favor Cozy Glow as a character, but Cherry design wise 🤭✨
These are so good!!
RAGAGEHDJDJDJ
I love how even with small descriptions, you can immediately tell how these characters would have such great chemistry together. Starburst and Trixie, Cozy Glow and Trixie, Cherry Pie and Sol, Wysteria and Cozy Glow, Trxie and Wysteria
They all have such amazing potential for character work and I want all of it
3:56 They don't! The g4 mane six share colors across their designs and to me...they always felt distinct to each other. The g5 mane six somehow mesh together in my mind. They don't have the same color-coded characters like g4 did.
This is so awesome!!! Snatching old ponies to make them relevent is actually a great idea considering that My Little Pony has always done it--- I'm just here loving every single one of your videos over there!
Tho, maybe i'm just blind af but the sketch that you did for Trixie looks alot like her special ability is knitting---
Ohh and yess, the tradition : self insert (love the design fkkkffjz)
And ohhh the lore that you prepared for this gen 6 is so interesting! I just wish we had something like that as a follow up 😭
I love these designs!! I really like Starbust, and his story idea you had for him! Now I'm curious how he got his cutie mark, cause if he can't do the magic how'd he do it to get his mark? Did he correct a spell or something? A possible name for his familiar could be something funnily formal (Augustus Thaddeus III as a more human example) or maybe something his sister named and you can clearly tell? The second option could show how it doesn't really listen to him, refusing any of the names he gives but accepting a possibly dumb sounding one from his sister!
Also (and I know this was probably unintentional-) he's set up to be a body dismorphia/disphoria story, feeling he's in the wrong one in all, and I thought that was interesting! I think all of them have amazing potential, and their stories could be really really good!
I definitely want to see a Part 2. You definitely make some side characters especially those that'll interact with your mane cast like with how G4 had characters such as Trixie, Discord, Starlight, Sunburst, Mayor Mare, Mrs Cake and all that. And definitely like see bits of lore for your G6.
My personal idea is "My little pony : the song of heart" Because your generation talk about feelings, destiny, hopes of each poney and realise your dream and I think that song and heart can be super names for your story !
Thank you for giving us a dysphoric sunburst 🙏
I love the personalities and struggles of Cherry Pie and Starbrust. 🍒💫
Maybe "My Little Pony: Mark Your Destiny" will fit nice
Yes I gotta agree with you. The main six from G5 is so colorblinded (for me at least) I be squinting at them like that one meme where Winnie the Pooh squinting at paper, ESPECIALLY ZIPP STORM. She look like someone oc who got added in the mlp movie
I love these design so much, you did such a great job designing them!
Visually, my favorite is Cherry Pie. You're completely right that those colors just look so pretty together. I also really like Wysteria's color scheme; it's so interesting and unique!
During your last redesign where you made Cozy Glo, she was my favorite, although my one critique here is that her having only cool tones of indigo makes her feel a _little_ too cold to be "cozy". As you were designing her in the video I kept imagining you adding tiny yellow spots/speckles somewhere (such as on her coat, although I think tiny hair pieces/clips would work even better. There's also metal cuffs/rings that are put on braids and dreads) that would remind me of fairylights (or stars) and bring just that slight needed feeling of coziness to her design.
I absolutely love that you've made Starburst an earthpony with an affinity for magic. I don't think his character writing would benefit by gaining a horn/magic later in the series, but I _do_ think it could be fun if he attained a magical artifact that enables him to "perform" some kind of magic. Either he attains it _after_ he's accepted he doesn't need to be able to do magic (so it's just a bonus), or it's used in the plot of a singular episode where he becomes obsessed with it and slowly continues to lock himself in his room; becoming completely reliant on it and going kinda crazy about it until his friends destroy it for his won good. Or Starburst himself destroys it when it turns evil and starts destroying things. he doesn't want to destroy it because he finally got a taste of performing magic, but eventually comes to terms that it needs to be done. It's through this episode that he finally accepts that he doesn't need to be able to perform magic to do the things he wants to do.
Sol having small wings made me so happy that you kept that in her design. I think she could be an easy example of writing disabled ponies (which I think the only one we have gotten was Tempest from the MLP movie). In her case not being able to fly. And it wouldn't even be "difficult" to do since most ponies can't fly. The only thing to be concerned about is the character writing for her not being able to fly. I know her character has trepidations about being able to fly, so writers would just need to be careful about not going with the "woe is me" personality.
I don't know if you intend for her character to one day be able to fly, but I hope she gets to stay earthbound since we have a lack of disabled ponies.
I think it would be cool if one day in the show she gets to meet another pegasus (this one has part of their wing missing due to a childhood accident) who can't fly, and they're able to bond over this shared difference while Sol's new friend aids her in seeing that your life can be completely fulfilling despite not being able to fly.
Maybe Sol can even have an episode (similar to Starburst's which I just described) where she has functional wings and eventually learns she doesn't need them to fulfill her life. In fact I think all 6 should get episodes (maybe two parters?) where they learn what they want in life/want to be/want to have/ isn't something they need (like with Trixie learning her dreams will take hard work). Kind of like how Shrek in the beginning of his movie wants peace and solitude, but by the end of his film learns that what he needed was friendship, companionship, and love (both platonic and romantic)
Anyways sorry for the rant. I really love how creative you are with your art and it really inspires me. I hope my ideas and critiques inspire you! (and I apologize if they sound harsh at all)
i don't intend to give sol the ability to fly!! just like scootaloo in friendship is magic her wings will stay small, but she finds other ways to get around!! both of them are supposed to be allegories for different types of disabilities so i have no intention of altering either of them physically! they'll learn that there are other ways for them to do the things they love! :3
I love how you kept it so recognizable and yet every design was their complete own, and looks like a new style of ponies. You did this by giving them patterns and hairstyles that were interesting and unique from gen 4! And I love the story you’re brewing. It’s is own thing and yet not far from what makes mlp, mlp.
THIS is what i expected from g5, your designs and thoughts r like EXACTLY what we need from a new gen. I love all of these ponies sm.
The only thing I’d say I didn’t like is the repetitive coat pattern on most of em, like it makes sense for Sol n Starburst but everyone havin it is a but much lol. But that’s subjective and regardless i still love all the designs !!!
that's true!! i just love coat markings way too much but these definitely aren't the final designs!!
@@inkiio I know another comment pointed out Cozy Glow's design, but maybe full a darker little almost cape/mantle type mpattern (think a mask and manlte type white spotting pattern on a cat, just just the below the neck part) with some little white/golden speckles in the darker part. Different kinds of real life animal patterns (primarily horses, but cats, deer, dogs could also work) could be a great source of inspiration.
EDIT: Trixie but her coat pattern is inspired by a marsh deer. I have thoughts but I'll leave it at that.
I can definitely see the conflict between cozie glow and starburst... like, imagine an episode where starburst becomes obsessed with the fact that cozie never uses her magic and follows her around, kinda giving her excuses to use it and she repeatedly refuses.. then starburst blows up on her at the end and then she explains why she thinks using her hooves is so much better (and starburst finally understands her a bit - and himself)
wasnt expecting a post at nearly 10pm but im happy to watch anyways!! Its always a joy when your content appears on my feed omg
OH MY GOODNESS I LOVE THEM!!!! I would absolutely watch a complete series of them. I’d love to hear more about their families and relationships!!
Yes please do like four more parts im foaming at the mouth
wysteria might be my most absolute favourite design and it's UTTER COMPLETE HEARTBREAK that she isn't real 💔
I’d love to see this concept and story unfold as a series! Your designs are amazing. I think there is so much potential for this, maybe a smaller conflict with Cozy glow who doesn’t use magic and Starburst who can’t but wants to, I love it so much! I think Cozy glow and Cherry Pie have to be my favourite characters here :D
Aaa they look so good, I love them! They all look awesome. My favorite design is Cherry Pie, I adore her color scheme and beautiful pigtail braids!! Wysteria is a close second- her mane?? Gorgeous. With that big bow on top??? Aaaaa 🤌 She is serving
I can totally see Trixie and Cherry Pie working at the diner as waitresses together, Trixie is there to begin getting money for her props while Cherry Pie is just supporting her family, and the owners would be very helpful to them as well!!
AWESOME. AMAZING. WONDERFUL. SPECTACULAR. GIVE ME 14 SEASONS AND 3 MOVIES RN MISSY
My Little Pony: Embrace Your Destiny (just a thought)
Dude I love them so much!! If these were the next generation designs, I'd love them so much and their arcs would be amazing >,
if they set G6 in the FIM universe still, I wouldn't be mad as long as they put a bat pony in the main cast! it would be the perfect excuse to show the bat pony homelands!
stop bc besides the designs all being super adorable and creative this made me wanna go into pony town n make my own mane six!!
my little pony: understanding life as an adult
Im just joking!
I literally love this idea of yours! I’d love to see more about it. I think my favorite is starburst, his little dragon friend is so cute!
I ship star star and trixie for the magic dynamic. I can imagine star coaching Trixie on her magic and pointing out every little wrong thing😭

For me it was 6:54 on Sunday
MLP: Path of Promise has nice double-meaning, both for the promise they think their cutie mark gives them, and for the promise of potential they all actually have. PS: I love all of them and I want more sibling details, especially for our mane 6 duo. I love that Cherry Pie is a down-to-earth Pegasus!! I love how you play with stereotype and trope subversion in your character building!
Very cute video, would love to see more of these concepts like how they got their cutiemarks? Is it another Gen 4 situation of it being connected events?

This is so fun, and very great designs! This kind of content, completely original generations, is kind of rare in the MLP fandom, I always love finding more of them!
honestly since i have way too much free time, i avtually WILL count how many times you say generation- yeah, im going to regret this..

Note: I almost missed this one- I'm getting to the point I can't think of generation as a word 💀
Also at the same timestamp, in the text it says gen? I won't count it but just mentioning
35. 12:03 It's the word gen, so I'm counting it?
36. 12:07
37. 12:40
*FINAL COUNT*
Its 37 in total! Do I regret this? Absolutely, I am exhausted right now. This was a great video tho! I love your art style and each of the ponies!
i love this so much. their designs and stories and overall harmony with eachother is perfect!
14:00 you should’ve named her cosy gloom ( cause you said she is gloomy
If a part two is made I think it would be amazing if we got more lore on the characters and their backgrounds, and maybe even more on how the characters interact with each other! I love the character designs and I’m excited to see what’s next!
Hey babe why’s this going up at like 10pm ToT
Cherry Pie is easily my favorite. I love her design, I love the stories that can come from her big family. I also love how you draw pegasi, with the colored hooves and tipped wings.
i love them SO MUCH OMG please make a part 2 i'd love to hear more about these guys!!
starburst my beloved...disability allegory...
Goodness this would be such a fire webtoon
A unicorn who doesn't like to use her magic and an earth pony who dreams of being able to do that. Such a nice and interesting duo! I love your ideas!
i ADORE these designs!! they feel like a perfect blend of g3 and g4. totally getting tick tick...boom! and later glee season vibes when it comes to the story!
I LOVEEEE TRIXIE AND THE REST OF THSE ARE SOOO COOL. i WISH this was FOR REAL. PLEASdshjkdhjkf
i think my least favorite design is wysteria, the teal and purple is just not doing it for me. I love her archetype though, pacifica is such a great character to draw from!! if the other characters werent so beautiful in their color choices i dont think i wouldve even thought she looked any bit out of place-
cozy glow DOES look a lot like twilight! not entirely a bad thing but it really does push the braincells there for me. When i was watching the design my brain went... blue coat wouldve been nice!! ofc then we got to trixie and I LOVE TRIXIE!! if it were me idk what other palette to choose; the one you chose is by far my favorite, but for some reason its just feels more familiar compared to all the other repurposed characters ;w;
favs are def sol and trixie!! i love that the designs you DID repurpose are both of more minor characters and also having such a unique spin!! sol/starburst being siblings is interesting because theyre so different, but i think that cherry pie and starburst are a older sibling duo! i could def see them becoming best friends and working well with each other. I think cozy glow has the hardest time entering the others dynamics, since shes early twilight personality -- no parties, socializing, ect. probably gets excited for other people to talk about art. starburst and cozy glow being foils of eachother is awesome; but there arent a lot of similarities for her to relate to the other members, nor a big driving force like gen4 had. I think her and trixie's dynamic would def be one of my faves though, with a introvert - extrovert dynamic. Them being friends feels right!
overall, i love these a lot C:
These designs are adorable! I love the idea for the themes of the show. It’s very relatable and cohesive. Can’t wait to see more!
THESE ARE SO CUUTE!! Definitely my favorite next gen designs I've seen! I especially love Cherry Pie. As an oc artist I love how much thought was put into each one, and their dynamics with eachother!! 💖
Completely new to your channel and I have to say I LOVE your style so far!! Definitely subscribing and I hope you continue to develop on these characters they are really well thought out!
