Yep. Looks like episode 1 for season 2 has been confirmed. I'm pretty happy, because it looks like a new villain has sprung up, leaving the mane six to gather the elements of harmony again to defeat it.

Episode 1: The Return of Harmony
Air Date: (Possibly) September 17th
Spoilered Synopsis: Discord escapes from his stone prison and Twilight and her friends act quickly to find the Elements of Harmony to stop him.

It's a two-parter just like with Nightmare Moon. Whoever this Discord person is, I hope he's badass.

Anyway, onto the question. ED has had a few articles that have caught my interest in the past, one being:

Would you watch MLP if it weren't about ponies?




I really don't know where I stand on this. Maybe, if the episodes were all the same plot and stuff.

First of all, I can't wait for season 2.

And I'm with your answer, if it was sort of the same plot I might still go for it.

I think Discord is alot like Krastos the Glue Maker. They could not deny the Bill.

I realize we're all fully aware of this, but...

Discord escapes from his stone prison and Twilight and her friends act quickly to find the Elements of Harmony to stop him.


[Nightmare Moon] escapes from [her] [moon] prison and Twilight and her friends act quickly to find the Elements of Harmony to stop [her].



Really interested to see if they acknowledge the similarity of the situation from within the actual show.

Why do they need to find the Elements of Harmony if they already have them?

They used the magic of all six elements and now they have to find the dragon ba- erm elements of harmony again because they scattered themselves.
ALL. ACROSS. THE GLOBE.
Can you say Zebra's and Seaponies?

I seem to remember hearing something from Faust or someone else on the team about how when she was Nightmare Moon, Luna was being possessed by something. I think it was part of some explanation about how easily Celestia forgave her sister or something like that. So I've been hoping that whatever it was would get a mention in Season 2.

Still leaves a bunch of questions though, like how did Discord get stuck in a rock after Nightmare Moon's defeat? Is that a byproduct of using the Elements of Harmony? Maybe Celestia just wanted to drive Discord from her sister, and never intended to get them both stuck in the moon. Also, same question as jeff, if the mane 6 aren't or didn't receive the Elements then what were the necklaces and the tiara?

I'd definitely still watch the show if the only difference were something other than ponies. Like, I don't know, pembroke welsh corgis?

They've earned enough confidence from me to think that they will play their cards right in that respect, and also in not being completely redundant. Here's hoping they live up to those expectations.

Also updated with a screencap of the entire storyline of episode 1, I believe, that was posted on /co/ a few months ago. Contains major spoilers.

No matter what they put out I'm determined to love it.
I was pretty proud of MLP for being able to be so awesome without a powerful bad guy that has to be stopped every episode, I hope this doesn't end that.

I'm going to laugh it is though. I hope it is too. There's also a couple of scenes of season 2 in the Hub's fall lineup commercial. One being of Celestia looking kind of pissed. Could be towards a new enemy.

It's looking pretty real to me, multiple sources are now confirming it so I'm pretty sure it's coming out on the 17th with that plot.

I shouldn't have said any, and was one of the sources from anyone that directly work on the show? If any were THEN I will believe Discord

Could be towards a new enemy.
Could


But any confirmation from any one that works on the show?

You think so?

That's some DIRECT copyright infringement right there.

Linking videos is one thing, streaming is another.

Though that would be awesome if it was!
(My only method of watching FiM is YouTube.)

I've downloaded the entire season before I went to france, so I could take my ponies on the move on my Ipod. Only took up about 5.6 Gig.

Updated with a video of a faded-color Rainbow Dash in season 2. It's only small little bits of a 2-minute animation reel, so don't expect much.

Also updated with a confirmation from Lauren Faust that we'll see pony families in Season 2.
