I still recall different worlds and a dedicated Norse-like multiverse were plans for G5.
I really hope they keep that in.
I think it’s a pity that this certain mix got lost somehow during the show. Or that a good balance between mythology and modernity has never been found. But well, the world was probably a little too carefree for that and kids would probably not notice that anyway. But I wish the show had had a more consistent fantasy/steampunk look. I would put my hopes in G5, but if there really is a movie that connects both generations, my faith that we will ever see a more “intense” MLP world fades.
Oh, and by the way, I don’t like the Wonderbolts. Not the ponies themselves, even though Spitfire was quite a bitch for a very long time, but the design… That ridiculous blue design!!! It bites so hard with the Royal Guard and the mostly magical fantasy world. Why Lauren? Why? And no, I don’t like the f***ing design of today’s Blue Angels either. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t admire their flying skills. Nevertheless. Wonderbolts looked ridiculous from the very first episode. Period! ;-D
