A long time ago, in a galaxy that just happens to be our own, the Golden Summer of 2011 was just beginning and a flood of pony art, media, and more was spreading across the internet. Among the wave of content came a particular piece that hadn't quite been seen before in the pony fandom: an anthology.
While edits to the show content had been made before they were typically singular works, lasting a few minutes if not a little longer. PONIES - The Anthology turned that all on its head by taking the efforts of several talented Youtubers and combining them into a nearly half hour long, high quality endeavor.
Amazing for its time the production became highly acclaimed and was eventually continued in PONIES - The Anthology II and further installments, installments that last to this day. Not many things from our past can be said to still be going strong five years after pony began, but Anthology bucks that trend and doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon!
Check on after the break for all the main Anthology videos and thanks to the various folks that have suggested this series over the past several history posts.

Nightly Discussion #609
by Calpain
We may all have our favorites, but in the the end the show wouldn't be the same without our main six and Spike! Heck, the show wouldn't be the same with even a single character missing, main, secondary, one shot or otherwise.
So here is to all our lovable pony friends! Woo!

The incredible Children of the Night animation that landed way back in 2013 during the peak of pony will be seeing a followup from the team over at Duo Cartoonist! This one will close the story off, with the cast of characters introduced in COTN.
Expect to see The Forgotten Mountains some time soon in animatic form. It won't be going for the full animation version this time, but their animatics were always awesome too weren't they?
You can find Children of the Night below the break if you want a refresher. Or to just watch it again. It's totally worth it.

Mega-wide doesn't usually work too well for the top of these posts, but how could I not header it with that?! Look how epic these princesses are!
NOW GO GET ART!
(Same warning at yesterday. New season 6 pony at the very bottom after a spoiler gap. Don't scroll all the way down if you don't want to see her)

Description: After putting on the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was shown just how much of a monster she really is. But that wasn't all the Elements did to her. Sunset has now been forced to serve penance by answering any question truthfully and by doing anything asked of her, whether she wants to or not. And she really doesn't want to. Until all of the hatred in her heart is gone, Sunset is at the whim of her peers, unbeknownst to them of course. Can her new "friends" help her down the road to redemption? If not, there's always that other Twilight Sparkle she keeps running into.
Long Road to Friendship

We've seen random European fashion companies hop on the pony bandwagon a few times over the last few years, some with... slightly confusing Scootaloo inspired designs, and it looks like the train isn't stopping any time soon. A new release by Key4communications has revealed Hasbro's 2016 plans, with designer Maria Escoté and others all putting in their 2 bits on what makes Friendship is Magic trendy. Apparently interest for this is pretty high, as various fashion chains have expressed interest in getting in on it.

Howdy, folks! TheSlorg here once again with another Pony Spotlight, highlighting the in-show personalities of your favorite ponies, and facts you may not have known about them.
This week's pony might take a bit of time to explain. Or perhaps it's: this week's pony might explain a bit of time? Enough punny business. It's time to Spotlight Dr. Hooves!
Furthermore, the main voice actor behind the Doctor has been kind enough to spare a bit of his time for a short interview as well. Head on down below the break to learn more about the Doc, including info from Mr. Peter New himself!

I guess with the release recently, we really don't need this poll anymore do we? It hit 10k votes anyway already, so might as well move on!
I do wonder if that will be part of the future episodes or not. Seems like you all wouldn't care.
NEXT POLL:
What do you think of the new pony revealed earlier in the week?
Go vote! And get the results of candybutt with a baby bump below.

Regardless of what party you support, it's always funny to see a presidential candidate say anything at all about cartoon horses. Over on Ozy.com, someone did a bit of investigative journalism into Ted Cruz's likability. One part in particular was fun:
I’ve just jumped from a hay bale to the upper rung of a bleacher seat — it’s the only way I can see Cruz, surrounded by fans, cameras and boom mics. Now I’m looking down, and the Texan with slicked-back hair, a rugged outdoorsman’s jacket and hiking shoes is talking about ponies. “What’s your favorite My Little Pony?” Cruz asks his tiny supporter, a little girl who is wearing a Rainbow Dash beanie. ”Twilight,” she says. “I have two daughters, and they love Twilight,” Cruz says, before adding, with a grin: “My favorite, though, is Applejack. I just think she’s funny.”
Thanks to Euphgeek for the heads up!

To fly off into the winter wilderness must be a nice and calming experience. If only humans could fly without a machine.
