My Little Pony: Make Your Mark (2022)
It's passable but not good
The animation and acting is trying to make it look good and I give credit to those who worked hard to make this possible. However the story line, and the need to continue off G4 with character who act out of place from the movie for the sake of a clique show trope just feels wrong. G4 had so much to the table and the fact they want to dishonor many cans by throwing away potential for cash grabs and merchandise feels quite shallow. What's frustrating is all the potential seen in the movie, the hype built off the G4 feels thrown away because they want to make something cheap that sells. Dad just honestly sad. All the potential for character arc is thrown away because they choose to focus on what I see as pointless episodes, and well it feels like the characters are dumbed down to "play into the villains plan" which is enviable to fail, over and over too much...as a fan of G4 with the music, character growth, and world building.. it's just well a disservice to viewers and a mockery of the build up of mlp of G4 when they need to correlate G4 to G5 for storyline purposes, but that's just it... it feels like they just choose to forget that and have some silly episode that honesty comes off boring. However I will leave 5/10 because it could change, maybe this is just a trial and they wanted to see how people would react, and see peoples upset feelings toward it, maybe there more to come and potential, but if it continues as I see it... this series is just a shameless cash grab for merchandise and money off what they can get. I hope it's not the case.
