After a movie, a YouTube series, a special, 8 episodes of a Netflix series, a podcast, a video game, and a holiday special, I think we have MORE than enough content to have a strong opinion on G5. How do you feel about G5 so far?
Personally, I like it, but not as much as G4.

I've kind of kept meaning to get around to watching it but have yet to do so. Though I also never really actually finished FiM either, wound up falling out of following it toward the end of season 8 and only seen one or two season 9 episodes.
Though funny enough my power was out earlier and I wound up passing the time in part by for the first time in ages watching the show, specifically Saddle Row Review.

There's something slightly off about the art style that I'm still getting used to. At first I thought it was just the FIM look losing something after being translated into 3D CG vs 2D, but then it's like I was still getting the uncanny vibes even while skimming the IDW comics that are out now. I dare say the closest thing I can think of is Shark Tale (though obviously not to THAT extreme) in the sense of "okay, are the faces supposed to be vaguely based off the voice actors or what?" when it's clearly a species and/or art style that it just straight up doesn't translate to.

I fell off with FiM around Season 8, which coincidentally was around the same time the local brony meetup group I was in went to shit due to a f***-ton of interpersonal drama. Never checked out G5 in part due to lack of interest (beyond a seemingly excellent voice cast) and in part because I hate that art style.

Been on a G4 nostalgia kick, though, along with a bunch of other early 2010s stuff.

I will say this forever, but while I think this is okay, I think if you want to know what I think is the true successor to Friendship Is Magic, it is Strawberry Shortcake: Berry In The Big City, highly recommend it.
