Called it. Nope with a capital letter N. And anyways, it’s not like it can or will. It’s an animatic, meaning it’s not finished, whichever is supposed to be a g4 reference, they’ll finalise it dead last. And coming from TYT which never did it at all even once, never will. Need I add it’s a fan artist doing a full scene and their job is literally to just do a full scene. It’s not their obligation nor right to put them in since anyway it’s not officially finalised.

Alrighty, I watched it. So let’s see…
-
Dahlia can apparently summon clothes with plant magic…? Something tells me a civil war between earth ponies and unicorns are gonna happen in the future. Sunny V Izzy. Dusk of Freedom.
-
The song sounds very familiar, I can’t place my hand on which.
-
There it is. The Terminatrix. 0.1.
-
Oooh, we got the bedlam too? Didn’t know this was a crossover.
-
The animatics don’t make it clear but I feel this magic aura is alive. Whoever it was behind it?
-
What? Never seen yourselves before? Well shock you too!
-
She serves no one. Not even Aenniz.
-
She’s glitching!
-
Also literal zip tattoo. Just the word.
-
Did someone hit her head? Or did she hit an invisible wall with her head?
-
They’re no known for spelling or even proper English since the Elites’ collapse I see.
-
Oh, well now I kinda wish there were subtitles because there is an s in Amnesia
-
Proof that she’s Pinkie’s descendant
-
Yup, no Comet or Sprout. They’re nothing. Sprout on the other hand… We’ll get to in a moment.
-
I had to go through the speech but they couldn’t make her amnesia last longer? Well that was pointless. Cut that scene out and it won’t be different.
-
So she’s Hatsune Miku Beyond. Nice.
-
Magical LSD! That stands for Lovely Superb Delight!
-
If Odessa went back many more years, the events will happen the same. A canon event even.
-
Go ask Cloudpuff or Lightning Rod. Or that strange pony who gave Raneigh the cursed Zathura game.
-
Nah, it’s to prevent the catastrophe that is the edge of time. Sad there’s no atrocity for them to deal with.
-
Who glows with circuitry? Of course she’s an earth pony.
-
Did he try to sing? Must be Out of Touch.
-
Now I remember slightly what it sounds like. Just don’t remember the song.
-
She does burlesque? Didn’t know. Was expecting hyper songs like this.
-
Be what? She’s no dazzling siren. But she does dazzle razzle. And now she’s frazzled.
-
Can you be my player 2? We can collab.
-
Yup a vocaloid. A ponaloid? Neighaloid.
-
You might even be married Pipp, and you’re not the main girl, childhood friend, tomboy, genki or even the shy gal. You’re the extra wheel no one cares about. Well maybe someone does, he just don’t know it yet.
-
Cyber Initiated
-
Just get married already. Your ex-husband doesn’t care anymore. I’ll make sure of it. Correction, I have made sure of it.
-
Reject Windy, return to the graceful Dahlia
-
Because it’s their turn to be at the top of the hierarchy. I can see the story of G6 already. Unicorns go on an uprising with their pegasus allies to bring the downfall of the One Earth Ponies Regime.
-
Oh look, it’s the fat bunny. Oh sorry, pardon me for being accidentally speciesist. The fat hopalotta.
-
There she is. The TX-1000. Inspired by Odessa in every way. But better.
-
That or Megatronia.
-
Here comes Walker Sloane. Who’s that you ask? A nobody. But he’s apparently a serious credible threat to be taken seriously.
-
Hi Megatronus. I see you gotten up from falling down.
-
Do all evil ladies sound like that? Like something sharp just shoved up their bum?
-
I’m very confused. She is apparently just a manager. Might even be blood related to Odessa. Who has powers one upping some villains before. Is merely a earth pony. And she doesn’t want world domination? Well at least she’s starting small. Don’t bite off more than you can chew.
-
Svengallop seems like a really good alternative right now. Until he and Gladmane also get plant powers. But hey, to quote someone formerly here: “at least the unicorns can’t hurt the earth ponies”.
The earth ponies:
-
What an Overkhast
-
Why isn’t Misty and Odessa sisters again? Or at least relatives near and really, really far!
-
You should meet Celestia then, Zipp. Or Twilight, the one time she did and it led to your current world. This is what happens when you let chaos manifest.
-
So wait, if Earth ponies can fly, they can’t use magic? Zero Gurabide!
-
Now that’s a blossom shower! Eat your heart out Lauriam!
-
So who is in charge of Neo Equestria? Is Zinnea the leader? The CEO even? Or is it an aged Sunny with her power armor because her powers are dampening with age?
-
Okay that’s it! I may see Sparky as an annoying, smelly, drooling imbecile. But no one ever hurts him!
-
To quote Discord or a group he once broke (not the mane 6), they are living elements. No 7th one though.
-
You should’ve gone for the head Sunny.
-
Woah, you know things are about to serious when they stop jabbering for too long.
-
You know, maybe that’s why Sprout wasn’t and cannot appear in TYT. He could solo Zinnea in 5 seconds flat. Clearly he’s too dangerous.
-
Zipp using reverse windjutsu
-
Why you should always look up. And not stand still.
-
10 mins is still the quickest debut and defeat of an MLP villain. I hear even Tempest, Trixie and Gilda is joining in on laughing at her grave. Even Opaline still stuck in that tree, Allura in that cave and even the Trio statue and glass raptorians across the edge of time.
-
She was an adult blank flank? Yeah kinda checks out that these two are dollar store Misty and Opaline sold in an exclusive hobby shop.
-
Technology is so advanced, they can preserve what Twilight couldn’t. If g4 was history, it’s now absolute nothing.
Whew, now that I got that shock out of the system. I…actually like it. Shocker I know, but really I enjoyed this the most. A shame it wasn’t completed and an even bigger shame that it’s not a MYM epidsode. I would love to see them in their 3d selves but unfortunately the g5 fandom is split into funny enough, 3 groups. The first is the movie/MYM purist. They’ll ignore everything else that isn’t main continuity. And I thought that sort of thinking died out. So to them, there’s no Skye, no Zinnea, no Odessa and absolutely no Violette Rainbow. No 3d models=not canon to them apparently. Because these 4 are really great guys. At worst they just absolutely don’t care about their mere existence so they don’t express how much they like or hate the character. Speaking of 3d models, then there’s the second group, the “official content” Purists, they’ll only ignore material that is concept, unfinished and unreleased because that to them is not official nor canon. A shame because I would love to see 3d models and renders of Zinnea and Odessa. Like what they could’ve looked like in MYM. Makaryo still hasn’t done them to this day, not even a wip despite his claims to liking g5. Which then brings me to the final group. The defensive superfans. That’s pretty much the remaining people left in this thread. I don’t need to explain the details of that. But that aside. I do agree that the future ponies relationship felt more like a rehash of Opaline and Misty, not that they patented the trademark but even so, the trademark will patent itself anyway. Zinnea acts like not just a carbon copy of Opaline but being or alleged to be Odessa’s manager, she’s also like Svengallop…if he were extra violent. I mean when you can use magic to an offensive extent, yeah. I don’t see how this would end well. But yeah, debuting and dying quickly did not help matters in cementing how credible or serious of a threat she is. I mean instead of manager, I feel being a ruler in a cyberpunk future would make her more interesting in that if she goes big, then she must be a dangerous threat. But nope, Twilight must have it easy that antagonists weren’t battling their way into problems 24/7 because goodbye good rest then.
Overall this is pretty decent. Amusing for once.

Haven’t seen it yet, but my interpretation is that Odessa came from the future to meet her idol in person
Here’s what I would change based on what I know, if I was on the writing staff:
Odessa would be an idol from the future, with Zinnea as her cruel, heartless, avaricious and emotionally abusive manager. When Odessa went back in time, Zinnea went to retrieve her, consequences be damned, and her travel involved breaking the machine, which took Allura’s brother. What do people think of this?

So what’s next to be released? The animatic of the fourth special? Or are there a few more regular episodes for which scripts and concept art exist?
Pony Discussion » MLP G5 Discussion and Speculation Thread » Post 28008
I liked the special, but I’m disappointed Zinnea didn’t turn out to be like a crazed despot. She just had this obsession with taking Odessa back or feeling like she owns her or something.
But she was pretty crazed and pretty powerful! I would have loved to see them both in completed animated form and finished before hasbro just decided not to give a shit anymore.
I’m grateful still for real for what we got though!

For the record, I was being facetious with that remark.
Y’know, I wonder if this is one of the plots that was meant to be for MYM. Given the clear parallel they were establishing with Misty and Odessa, I think we needed longer than even this Special length to fully develop the ideas this special brings up. As is, Odessa and Zinnea feel a bit like “Misty 2” and “Opaline 2” respectively. I would’ve liked to have a 2-parter.

That was surprisingly interesting. G5 had no loss of ambition in its final days. It just got cut off.

Also Zinnea bemoaning the friendship of “old-timey ponies” makes me think pony society collapsed again after G5 lol
I doubt it, there were many ponies in G4 who had the same attitude as Zinnea who only saw Odessa as a source of income as a talented and popular singer who had many fans. Here it should be remembered that even in our world there is a sad tendency to look down on our parents from a very long time ago, in the belief that one knows best and has the most developed civilization. Zinnea’s attitudes are not as strange as one might think, this is popular in stories about fictional encounters between the past and the future.
Also, Zinnea flinched when she saw Sunny become an alicorn, but her techo-magic and refined magical powers made her almost unstoppable, and it is also reported that her magic was “anti-natural” - she was evil. So evil that it distorted her as seen with her eyes and teeth, a typical sign of a pony that had fallen to darkness within them, as seen with Luna who became Nightmare Moon. Still, she knew about alicorns and had respect for them - until she realized that G5 ponies did not possess magical knowledge.
Sadly for her, there is a much stronger alicorn than Sunny, who would not tolerate her attacks on the ponies.

I got that impression at a few points but others made it so vague that it could go either way.

Most likely her sponsor who had only seen Odessa as her property to gain prestige and wealth. No wonder Odessa chose to flee even if she got to the past, although there is so far little about how she and Zinnea could have gotten to G5. But what has been shown so far is that techno-magic like these “time ponnies” or “future ponnies” - Zinnea calls these of G5 “old-timey ponnies” - is more formidable than ordinary and unskilled magic of G5, even in the face of Sunny who is an alicorn. In the end SOMEONE had to intervene - someone who feels protective of the ponies who had been put in danger, and who is still alive (in a way), who can intervene.

We saw how the mysterious intelligence in the Unity Crystals reacted, when it sensed the kind of threat Zinnea posed to her ponies. She reacted by grabbing the future pony and pulling her up into the sky, where she was sucked in before an explosion occurred. I don’t think the star symbol was quite correct, the background material was vague - and it’s very similar to the Wishing Star from TYT. I think it’s this star we see, not Sunny’s mother’s cutie mark.
Even techno magic is nothing against the strongest magical pony in history - who I think many now understand can’t be other than Twilight Sparkle. She is in truth with the heroes of G5, as she had said - “I’m with you”…

This was a fun one. It’s great that Earth Pony Magic means that an earth pony can be a credibly threatening villain.
It’s a crime that TYT was cancelled before this could be fully animated.

I don’t think pony society collapse again, I think there might be some ponies who disagree with the G5 Mane 6. Someone did stated in a discord server that there was no nature area to be found, in which I think they might be outside of Odessa’s stage area

I don’t mind being spolied about this however
Out of curiosity here given this is a special
Where there any G4 references/nods in the special?
Pony Discussion » MLP G5 Discussion and Speculation Thread » Post 27993
so, Zinnea is Odessa’s mom?
Pony Discussion » MLP G5 Discussion and Speculation Thread » Post 27992
I do see your point. It’s been a while since I’ve seen those episodes so I certainly got some details wrong. Still Zinnea was pretty intimidating though I do wish we’d gotten more info on her and the future where she and Odessa come from since from what I saw it looks pretty cool.
Pony Discussion » MLP G5 Discussion and Speculation Thread » Post 27991
Speaking of which I found Zinnea to be a much more creditable threat than Opaline and Allura. Opaline mostly sat back in her castle and used Misty to do her dirty work while Allura outside of her hypnotizing purr, teeth and claws isn’t all that dangerous(She only hypnotized the Auroricorns only when she wanted them to look for the nova charm).
While I thought the special was pretty good, I don’t agree with this. Opaline needed Misty to do her dirty work because her power was gone and almost took over Equestria when she had it back and Allura’s mind control power is absolutely terrifying, she just chooses not to use it to its full potential because she’s not completely evil (she also nearly killed Izzy once with her frost powers).
That aside, the fight scene was fantastic, easily the best part of this great special. Much gratitude to the team that brought us this!

I gotta say that was very enjoyable! Odessa is adorable and awesome especially when standing up to Zinnea with the mane six backing her up. Speaking of which I found Zinnea to be a much more creditable threat than Opaline and Allura. Opaline mostly sat back in her castle and used Misty to do her dirty work while Allura outside of her hypnotizing purr, teeth and claws isn’t all that dangerous(She only hypnotized the Auroricorns only when she wanted them to look for the nova charm). Zinnea by contrast doesn’t mess around and uses her plant magic to its full effect even managing to put Alicorn Sunny on the ropes at one point before the unity crystals’ magic intervened.
All and all this was a great animatic and I greatly appreciate Shad0w-Galaxy and everyone who worked so hard to bring this to life.
