This is one of the reasons I like about Spike; being the only (and now first) dragon to learn about friendship is that he can now show the dragons that there is another and better way to live instead of hoarding worthless things, and this way he could lead by example.
Kinda nice to see how Spike is making an impact on the world around him! From his duties with his pony friends to the allies he's made with the dragons and the changelings!
Doc’s office is ever changing. I love it
It's more the artist then anything
I LOVE HOW. THE OFFICE RESEMBELS NACHUR.
I do too
Lotus Moon: Reminds me of how the inside of the TARDIS changes with each incarnation of the Doctor.
Chris Teet is dr wolf secretly a time lord? 😱
Great artwork and voicing by everyone involved. Caitbug really captured the subtle underlying insecurity Spike exhibits when he's forced to sit down and talk things out. It's funny how he complains that other dragons don't want to talk about their feelings, when he's actually doing the same thing in an indirect way. It's like he keeps himself busy all the time just so he doesn't have to be alone with his thoughts - thoughts that bubble to the surface that include the pain of wondering who his biological parents were and whether they're still alive, worries about outliving most of his friends, and where he can find his place in a world that doesn't lend itself for someone like him who doesn't quite fit in either pony or dragon society.
He's a dragon with an armor of scales to protect him from physical attacks, but in a similar way he uses sarcasm, boastfulness, and overconfidence to hide the emotional anxieties he exhibits from time to time like in "Equestria Games" or "Triple Play". In general he is a happy, optimistic individual. But when he's not in control, he's either very down on himself or just panics outright. It's like under that tough outer shell is a very fragile being, and you don't have to dig very deep to undermine that projection of outward happiness.
Meeting Ember (and presumably Smolder now as well) seems to have helped heal some of the insecurities over being a so-called "ghastly creature" (as his crush once said about dragons). He is really proud of his species now, even with malcontents like Garble still causing trouble from time to time. Maybe if we ever learn more about his parents in the future he can also put that worry to rest as well?
The ending of the video seems to hint at a sequel. Did Spike sign that photo himself? Did he actually put together the whole basket and the story about it being from Twilight was a white lie? Something seems to be bothering him and it wouldn't surprise me if it was related to one or more of the issues surfaced above.
I can relate with Spike trying to feel helpful but feeling left out at times, even so I can notice the influence of others in their life and my own, and makes me happy and appreciated
same
Daw Spike’s voice is so cute!
*Squees* That was so sweet, and heartwarming ^^ and something I'll defiently reflect on today while I'm working.
Lightning Bliss Hello.
Lightning Bliss HELLO MIS, BLISS MY NAME IS ORIAN STAR AND I HAVE TO SAY YOU AND OTHERS ARE THE RESON I GOT INTO REVIEWING SO I THANK YOU.
craze jax/orian star Y32 Same here, I'm working on my first movie review.
Hey Lightning Bliss! :)
Skyline the White Wolf SOUNS COOL WHICH MOVIE.
This was good, I hope that we get to see Spike make a comeback here.
Great video. Spike has grown throughout the years and has made many accomplishments for his age.
That made my day. I always related to spike alooooot. I'm used to playing the outsider no matter what group I join, that sometimes its hard to believe my contributions to them mean anything. But I kept going, because it was still something unique I brought.
K Damon I feel the same way, I have a hard time making my voice heard when I'm part of a group or trying to introduce newcomers to groups I'm in.
K Damon exactly same thing with me always thought no good enough or helpful but me just being there my idea's and perspective actually help I hope to do the same for our community
K Damon the flame will soon rise
K Damon the flame will soon rise
I hope we'll get to see another visit with Spike someday.
Especially now that he has his new wings.
Like to hear what's said about them during the visit.
I do like how these "Therapy Visit" videos have a different artstyle.
The writing for Spike was great here, I loved that he was portrayed with a more mature understanding of how the conversation was going, the meaning behind the topics and a bit of confidence in himself without being arrogant.
On a side note, does anyone know what happened with Celestia's A moment with Dr Wolf? I know the auditions were about a year ago.
This is fantastic session between Dr Wolf and Spike
Caitbug's performance is simply outstanding as always.
all I can say is amazing.
Spike is and always will be my favorite character💚
and I hate it when fans and or the show its self treat him as a worthless punching bag😟
Draconicus the Reaper I feel the same way with him too. He needs to be more respected
Rex the Extreme Werewolf agreed, I especially hate how the shows biggest reason why he can't help the mane 6 is because he's a baby dragon and is too young, but then it turns around and makes him take just as much if not more physical abuse then the full grown ponies around him?....and a lot of that physical abuse is caused by the mane 6 themselves.
And Spike's gotten pretty much no real character development since Practically every Spike centered episode has Spike seem to loose all the knowledge and just common sense he's already been shown to posses, just so he ends up causing the problem that needs to be fix.
He was my favorite character too
🙂 U know, I’m glad Spike is having a session of his own. Sometimes I’ve seen that he almost always gets the short end of stick when it comes to action. 😞..... 😁but in other cases he does have his days of amazing adventures.
I kinda love how the office keeps changing. It reminds me of the Tardis in a way. Always changing to suit the doctor's, or in this case the patient's, needs. Only with the office it's more like the office changes to fit what the patient would find "Comfortable" and "Relaxing" kinda makes me wonder how the office would change for a pony that's...say a boxer as a example.
I like this video really showing how spikes feels about himself how's he different from other dragons finally im glad this topic been discuss and spikes finally relazing while not cannon just how important he is I hope they try something like this in show
As someone who operates in the background like Spike, I can really relate to this. Thanks for that :D
I want to give spike a hug
Who's next? My recommendation is 1, Big Mac dealing with his importance in his family, 2, Trixie fearing about her bad habits affecting her friendship, 3, Celestia worrying about no longer being able to teach Twilight Sparkle personally.
Light Heart I can also see Celestia being frustrated and how little she seems to be able to good for her kingdom, perhaps even missing the days she felt more useful or was able to save the day by the side if her sister.
Maybe even bring up how others have begun questioning her capabilities and ability rule. This admittedly being more towards the fandoms perspective, and possibly even the writers, but it could be written that they were simply subjects or others from a more in workd perspective.
I vote for Discord
How about Discord? I mean since that Tea party *he* hosted, well... he's probably a bit baffled as to where exactly is the line between being himself and too much chaos for his friends? And maybe the whole oranges, snakes and what-ever that went on during that weekend.
I vote for Starswirl the Bearded, for neglecting and giving Stygian the cold shoulder without giving him the benefit of the doubt.
And for treating Twilight like a lesser pony
Sweet :) It would've been nice if they had brought up Spikes visit to Dragontown in Fillydephia from the IDW comics; it's where he met Mina and realized while there are many bad dragons there are also many bad ponies (his disastrous first trip to dragon lands soured his views on dragons and made him believe he was more a pony.) and that there are good dragons. It was here that Spike finally accepted his dragon heritage in a positive light, even helping the town change the city's POV of them.
It's good that Spike gets a therapy visit from Dr.Wolf and yet I'd feel for the little guy I'd have the same struggles in life and feel the exact same way the only difference is I'm a magical talking 4th wall breaking pony and Spike is a Dragon
I just realized we've seen everyone's parents out of the mane 6 but we've still not seen Spike's. I wonder if they'll include that before the series's end?
If they do, I hope they take it seriously this time instead of pulling a "Father Knows Beast" on us.
This is a very well planned out lesson for anyone who thinks the same way as spike. Especially since the great act of kindness can do more than just make someone’s day brighter, it can also save lives.
After watching this I hope Spike's episode doesn't screw up majorly.
This was the sweetest thing of ever seen in my life thank you and a little word of advice for spike You are loved more than you know you may not be able to see it but with my abilities I can feel how much they love you
This session really spoke to me. I could see many similarities between Spike's life and my own.
0:53 there's Dr. Wolf and Mrs. Wolf sitting in front of Spike's statue in the Crystal Empire. Nice.
Also, I like the picture of Dr. Wolf and Twilight on top of the gift basket
One other thing about this video, or more specifically the part where Spike says "the last colt picked for a team." That happened to me quite a few times back when I was in High School. I get you, Spike. I get where you're coming from.
I'm not crying! you're crying!
Blasted onion-chopping ninjas!
Dustykatt Rhoades DOUT IT.
Lol
No I'm actually not I don't have feelings
Riiiiiiiiiiiiight!
*cough cough cough*
Pinocchio nose...
Out of all mlp universe I think that I was waiting for this one the most out of everyone else it's a nice thought that he even when you're not directly the cause of someone's heart warming day or maybe just a simple smile just that one simple act can have such a difference in someone's life and that really is the best feeling in the world for some people including myself and to give your self credit for that possibly is one of the most important things for anyone to possibly do. thank you I kind of needed this today thank you so much and Dr. Wolf
"it's good to be helping."
good show.
I wish they talked about Spike's love for Rarity too
I SOOOO wish I could have seen something like this when I was a child.
Also... would love to see Oin Lightbringer in the pony world.
I love your art style. I can’t wait to see what else you’ve got.
...with that done somebody should draw a comic if Dr Wolf play Ogres and Oubliettes with Spike and Big Mac!!!
Also Dr.Wolf, what will be your race and class that you will play? :-)
Nice arts and a good message. Never underestimate the value of a supporting friend. These people are the very foundation to build up great things. :-)
Spike is still my favorite character and I love how his character has evolved over the course of the series. Though we still don't know where he came from, who his parents are, or why he's the only dragon without wings. I hope they expand on these in future. Great video, DOC.
I love these. Still can't wait for a visit from Discord.
These are (in my opinion) are your best videos. Great job
Now that Spike has finally had HIS therapy session, may I suggest either Discord, or revisiting the Mane Six one on one again, preferably starting with another Fluttershy or Rainbow Dash session? They've all changed so much over the years, and I'd love to see that reflected here in a fresh way Doc. Godspeed.
It feels genuine the way you do these are like you actually listen to the people in you doing great doctor wolf just keep it up
8:50 Well, thank you kindly for the invitation Spike, but I'm already in a group.
Even though I never really watch your therapy sessions, I have to say that this is my most favorite of your videos. Keep it up, doc!
Okay, I admit I hadn't thought of it like that. I only viewed Spike as the dude who is at the receiving end of many jokes and who gets abused a lot, but him wanting to be useful because he feels out of place and wanting to show everyone that he can contribute to the pony community while being a dragon makes sense. You have a knack for closing plot-holes, doc. Good job and thanks for opening my eyes to this perspective! :-)
Omg love this style of artwork :3, Dr. Wolf seems like a wizard here heehee
I love it, great work!
From the art, to the voices everything is great!
March 14th 2014 to May 11th 2018 between silver quill foreshadowing a moment with Dr Wolf in his after the fact review of Twilight Time and Spike finally getting his therapy visit I'd see them for approved that he definitely needed
Dr. Wolf: "I'm guessing Pinkie Pie must've had a hand in this as well."
Rainbow Dash: "What are hands?"
LoL, at the end the doctor called after Spike cos he didn’t pay for the therapy. 😂
I'd love to see Diamond Tiara in a later visit. If anypony needs Dr. Wolf's help, it's gotta be her!
I'm tearing up! Surely Spike needed that :')
Man these videos make my day :) I had a really bad day yesterday and I kept thinking about it today (see I can’t let things go easy i don’t know why but I keep thinking and thinking and thinking about these things and it makes me sad (they are mostly sad things) and that made me sad but when I saw this when I got home I was really happy thanks for making these :)
Even though you’re the small one spike, that doesn’t mean you’re not the most valuable member of the team 😉👍
Finally, this video's released. I was hoping it was going to be his problems with telling Rarity how he feels.
Dr. Wolf please do ogres and oubliettes with Spike and Big Mac!
Dragon Mas 95 maybe after his other D&D campaign...
Doc. Why do you Always manage to make me cry when i watch these sesions?
DRWolf this is absolutely marvelous and fantastic i love it and the artwork is truly magnificent.
I see a lot of myself in the sessions you have Dr. Wolf, I find that every now and then when I watch your videos it helps me come to terms with my own problems. I'm not good at putting many of my thoughts into words so I'll just say, It's good that you're helping.
I thought this therapy session was going to be about Spike’s neglect towards the mane 6. But no, they decided to go with Spike not being able to fit in with pony society.
It could've also addressed the fact that Spike is nothing but the writers' punching bag
I thought the animation was just fine spike showed his feelings and he says about his problems about fitting in but to me he does fit in quite well recently I mean he’s famous in the crystal empire for one thing and his pony friends love him, And Twilight loves him like a son she never had But he’s mostly her assistant.
I'm so happy to see this video finally. And it is a very heartwarming video. I linked it on my cover page of my fanfic on FIMfiction, as I did my own take on how an session would go. My idea in mind is Spike worrying about his feelings for Rarity & how he might be able to deal with them.
This animation had me emotional but good job
I am so happy with this episode. And you all ways do a great job Dr and don't roll a 1 haha
Not to be a... nitpicker, but didn't you have therapy sessions with Spike before?? Like that one video you had with Silverquill, and his fashion disaster so terrible, Rarity basically assaulted him with fashion. It was the video on Spike Episode Ideas. The way you greeted Spike here was like you hadn't really met him before, even though you had.
It feels weird...
Though that doesn't take away from this visit. It was wonderful and Starbat did an excellent job as well!! Keep on what you do, because the little things will add up. And one day, they'll be able to change the world. That's what's kinda awesome about the Domino effect.
And again, another great vid, Dr.
Next time, we should bring Smolder into this
*whistles casually*
Don’t mind me, just a former subscriber who’s happy that what got me to subscribe in the first place is back.
Dr. Wolf has a different look in this one. I kind of like it, although at least one of the even more recent ones has him walking on all fours like a real wolf, which I like even better.
been awhile since one of these glad to see you havent forgotten your series with all the new ones youve become a part of keep it up Dr.
You know, when Dr Wolf said Spike can 'impress those virtues on other dragons', it made me think... Why can't he also impress them on the ponies? As I'm sitting here thinking back on all Spike has done over the seasons, and how Dr Wolf is right, he doesn't take the virtues he's learned for granted... It's odd. Ember, his one dragon friend, doesn't take him for granted, yet the ponies do. I don't think any of the ponies have ever actually listened to what he has to say, and I honestly think he does have a lot to say, and the ponies can learn much from him. Sadly, we all know they never will, because the show really doesn't like Spike much. Hell, even Discord listens to Spike more than the ponies.
Ooh! Spike is next! Nice job once again, everybody! :D
I have missed these. Thanks doc.
You tricked spike into a therapy session omg you sneaky wolf
My favorite part of all of this is the introductions and the music. Only an MLP channel will start with something heartwarming and adorable just to make everything feel comfortable and believable
I love dr wolf design
Glad that your non-ponisona will engage in some Orges and Ooglettes with Spike and Big MacIntosh. Put your Brony D&D experiences to the test in Orges and Oogliettes. Just like the letter said from Princess Twilight Sparkle. If you could get Discord to come to a session(with the urging from Fluttershy), or have Fluttershy(making him Pinkie Promise not to do anything Chaotic) with Discord that would look great to do. How about Diamond Tiara or her Parents? Or Silver Spoon and/or possibly her parent as well? We(I for 1) have seen half of the parents for Sunburst and Starlight, maybe try to get them in(separately or with the other half) together? And possibly a really serious session with Scootaloo? Or with the CMCs separately(not like the last session they were there. I know this is a very long wish list for a session with DRWolf, but I hope you and your crew came make them come true?
yo that knock felt real 😟
two times in a row the knocking at the start of the videos scared me and made me look to the wall to my right.
6:45 As a Harry Potter fan, the only thing I heard was Goblet of Fire
Loved this!, sometimes I feel like spike as well.
This is certainly one of your best ones in terms of art. A great balance of quantity and quality.
I personally love these videos :)
Now that the Mane 6, the CMC and Spike have come to Doc's office.
The only ones left are the Princesses, Shining Armor and Discord
glad to see a return if ties and im glad to see one of this on spike as i feel ike he is still over looked in the show
I love this artist's artwork.
Story time:
I actually almost got the opportunity to meet Dr. Wolf. I was at BronyCon last year, and I was at the My Little Karaoke place. But what happened was it took longer than expected. I missed his panel and I didn’t meet him.
Kinda hoping Spike would be more sarcastic, still nice video.
You know if I were in Dr wolf's position I would also bring up the incident with king sombra. Spike did bring the crystal heart to cadence after all. He is more helpful than he gives himself credit for
Doc I don’t know how you do it but everytime you do something like this it makes me feel inspired in some way to help my friends when their having the same problems as spike in this video
Been long since last therapy vid from you. And luckily, before my 2 week long trip.
That little bit about the TF2 analysis Community made me think about all the stuff you really do for the Brony community-at-large between your own personal reviews these many blurbs your own short story readings the TF2 videos your contributions of other people's works and all the fan vents that you go do all year-round you really invest a lot into giving back into this community. I just wanted to take a quick second to say thank you I really enjoy a lot of these videos and your contributions on other people's works as well. My time spent here on RUclips over the last 7 years would not be half as wonderful had you not been a part of it. Thank you doctor
"Ponies are great"-Spike 2018
This animation of Dr. Wolf is amazing
Oh how adorable, Good lesson!!!!
This is charming. Great job. I wonder who’s next...
Your character is very good. If he were on the show, I would of watched it more
That was so good! Thanks Dr Wolf for all the good things you bring to this comunity
That knocking sound actually makes me jump! It's sudden, loud, and it sounds like my wall is being knocked on.
Awesome video.
I been looking forward to this for years.
Well great now I want to see Oin join Garbunkle, Sir McBiggins, and Captain Wuzz
