sigh this is another reason why I think G5 should have been it’s own standalone universe like the previous four. I get that some people actually like the connections between G4 and 5, but that isn’t saying much. We wouldn’t have this whole copyright drama argument in threads like this if G5 was a real reboot with brand new stuff to see. Ugh..

They were probably confident on what they were going with, but as we know that didn’t turn out how they wanted it to be. A lot can change after statements like that.

@Briarlight
their official reason for making g5 a continuation of g4 is because they wanted to continue expanding the world, as they thought it would be a waste to throw away more than 10 years of story and world-building, so they still wanted to expand and explore.
And they have with the ponies splitting apart and having to relearn the lessons of old again. And that had been fulfilled. Also we’re seeing that continuation with the dragons and Opaline’s backstory connections. So even if that was the main motivation. (Which I’m gonna need a source on that), they’ve by definition met it.

MYM has not fulfilled the promises that there will be a sequel to G4 with the reuse of the great lore that had been created, especially from S4 to S9 and partly with the comics and other things like the movie and the books, and now that it ends, it has this followed to disappointment.
What promises lmao
People here are literally making things up to worry over

Because a series that takes place at least 100 years after the events of G4 was totally going to do a story about characters that died before the events of G4.

It’s obvious that new rules in dealing with copyrights need to be worked out, especially if Hasbro goes on a real downturn in 2024 with TYT as a result. It was a very big mistake to let DF have all the rights of what constitutes the majority of the world building in G4, an entire world has been made inaccessible, so much lore has been lost, and this destroyed a large part of the foundation of G5, so that MYM is ending after just one season. Hasbro would have bought these rights before Warner Bros. took over, but Goldie’s death and the “bus versus tram” conflict where a man who focused too much on gaming has taken over, has meant that Hasbro was neither able nor willing.
MYM has not fulfilled the promises that there will be a sequel to G4 with the reuse of the great lore that had been created, especially from S4 to S9 and partly with the comics and other things like the movie and the books, and now that it ends, it has this followed to disappointment. We got off to a good start in C2 when there were several G4 references, but then came a drought that persisted until now. Many people had been curious about how the old world they had become familiar with had been changed. Now it is clear that there is nothing left.
When the word “alternative universe” is used, this is canon in the MLP universe or “Ponyverse” as seen between G1 and G4, and in G4 itself where time travel, dimension jumping and reality distortion have created the basis for endless AUs. G5 has become AU as G4 is AU for G1, just as a loose sequel with very little concrete from the previous generation.
When the work on MYM is over and if MLP’s future is jeopardized in the next year, the truth about what went wrong since spring 2022 will be released. Then the management at Hasbro - and the Discovery Family itself - may face serious challenges. They have learned far too late from the Ken Penders case when the Archie Comics universe of Sonic the Hedgehog was completely erased and will never be commercially exploited again. Penders managed to destroy his own life’s work when SEGA had enough and cut everything out and start all over again - and this was many years before the situation around DF arose.
We have seen, among other things, in Disney with the Star Wars and Netflix with the new series about “One Piece”, that authors and companies have become much stricter and more open about the creation and use of copy rights so that these are not sabotaged or blocked . Unfortunately, it looks like Hasbro is at risk of becoming the latest victim.

Not a problem since they are a huge company like other companies. And sadly they all have a common practice to spend as little as for a basic breakfast while trying to make profits out of that expenditure as huge as mansion.

The “revelation of legal issues” does not mean that things in the FiM show are at risk of being de-canonized at all. Silly legal issues and arguments happen between entertainment companies all the time. People are presuming way too much over one alleged statement from MYM’s developer.
