See that guy up there? That's Will freakin' Anderson, and he works at DHX Media. You know, the place where ponies are made. Tell me you've seen a cooler, more badass setup than that. Stop your clicky little keyboards right there, because if you were typing anything just now, you're wrong. This man is so awesome it hurts to even type it.
In case you already knew all that, I have some news about the finale of Season Two straight from this guy:
- The finale is confirmed to be a two-parter.
- The finale will have a song.
- Will Anderson is awesome.
I think I may be repeating myself. I will show myself the door.
Good evening, ponies.

I'm more than jealous.
VastaKustutaWe bow to you, oh great lord Anderson.
VastaKustutaAll my yes.
VastaKustutaThat's... that's all kinds of awesome. Holy crap.
VastaKustutaTWO PARTEERRRRRRRR YEEEAAAAHHH!!!!
VastaKustutaBEST. DAY. EVER!!!
VastaKustutaThat's awesome and hilarious at the same time. It's hilariawesome.
VastaKustutaIs this... God's avatar on Earth?
VastaKustutaI agree on everything!
VastaKustuta*GASP* HNNNNNGGGGGGG! William Anderson! Simply epic! This made my very day...I really needed that. Very, very tired indeed.
VastaKustutaAnd then I was forever in love.
VastaKustutaAnd, no, the only thing that could make this setup even more awesome is MOAR PONI!
Sweet Celestia I love Will and the MLP team.
Swagtacular
VastaKustutaJust saw that on his Deviantart page.
VastaKustutaC'mon, ponies: More people need to do ponysona pictures for him in all his awesomeness!
I agree with the sentiment expressed by Cereal.
VastaKustuta... this guy ... he IS badass.
VastaKustutaHUZZAH!
VastaKustutaWilliam Anderson FTW!
OH CELESTIA I am so stoked right now!
VastaKustutaWill Anderson is now on my list of people to meet.
Rarity is best pony.
That's a pretty awesome set-up and I'm a pretty awesome pony...there's a connection somewhere...Oh right! I'm on his shirt!
VastaKustutaTwo parter? My heart can't take another pony cliffhanger!!
VastaKustutaI just blew two holes through my pants. I'll not specify where, or how, but this picture is responsible.
VastaKustutaIf the two parter includes Cadence and Shining Armor, that probably means something very important, and awesome, is going to happen with them.
VastaKustutaHAHA! THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED!
VastaKustutaWill Anderson is clearly best pony.
VastaKustutaHe has a nice skull collection going on there.
VastaKustutaWhile you're at it, can you guys please post this journal link in that post? It shows an insight of how he works on the show; particularly, his working on the last 2 episodes of Season 2:
VastaKustutahttp://willheim.deviantart.com/journal/spotting-285217809
I want his job. Of course, I want the ability to actually DO his job first. Not happening anytime soon, I'm afraid.
VastaKustutaA two parter AND a song? Could this get any better?
VastaKustutaAlthough it is an impressive setup I bet you've never been to r/battlestations have you?
VastaKustutahttp://en.reddit.com/r/battlestations/top/
My body is not ready.
VastaKustutaHoly crap, tat's some awesome piece of news you got to us.
VastaKustutaMy bows to the man. He really is awesome. No doubt about that.
I sometimes wonder if fandoms from other shows actually give a crap about the people who make it. Seriously, it seems that not much people aknowledge their efforts.
Also, lol at the tag.
>William Anderson is awesome
VastaKustutaWas this ever even in question? Or as the also Great and Powerful Trixie would put it; "Was there ever any doubt?" lol And of course it's a badass setup. It's a professional studio, Cereal. Lmao. But the Brony shirt and FiM opening scene and logo on the screen does add a certain touch of fabulous to the equation. ;) I also find it funny just by looking at them I know most all that equipment's makes and models.
Also, yay on a two-parter finale and song!
Two parter huh? INCOMING EPIC PONY TIME! Oh, if only those theories about Discord being behind the love poison recipe which brought about his reign in the first place and "hearts and hooves day" being a big foreshadow to the finale, up to and including a Discord return, could turn out to be true...
VastaKustutatwo parter... song...?
VastaKustutaexcuse me while i try to get my heart to work again
Like a fucking boss.
VastaKustutaWell, as Fluttershy said during the Best Young Fliers competition, "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Gosh, can these guys get any more awesome?! This is gonna be the season finale to end ALL season finales. They clearly want to end the season with a bang. I'd say they're gonna end it with an atomic explosion of epicness. It's gonna be a long, arduous wait for these two episodes, but I think it's safe to say it's gonna be so worth it.
VastaKustutaYES! The finals going to be a two parter and theres a song! This here just made my day!
VastaKustutaHERE WE GO
VastaKustutaTHEM TAGS.
VastaKustutaGod Cereal, you are a fangirl I swear xD
Loved the post though, Seth let Cereal post more often c'mooooon~
As for the news, was there ever any doubt? Two Parters are awesome. AND songs are awesome. Hell yeh!
MY MIND HAS BEEN BLOWN.
VastaKustutaSETH, YOU'LL BE GETTING THE CLEANING BILL.
That man is indeed pretty awesome.
VastaKustutaNow, I don't want to be greedy, but "The Best Night Ever" had the outstanding "At the Gala" song plus 2 Pinkie Pie songs... so it's going to be hard to match.
I'm looking forward to seeing them do it though.
mlp needs moar spirit of chaos and disharmony stat!
VastaKustuta>William Anderson
VastaKustutaThis guy, this fuckin' guy right here.
Can't wait for the next installment!
He looks nothing like the William Anderson I'd imagined. He looks positively badass. (And younger, because stereotypes.)
VastaKustuta"See that skull in the left? That's real. Someone gave it to me."
He's so freakin' awesome.
I mean.
Shit.
This is going to be awesome. Best crew ever.
VastaKustutaWill Anderson could kill Chuck Norris by LOOKING at him.
VastaKustutaBwahaha! Everything about this is AWESOME!
VastaKustutaWe've had our eye on you for some time now, Mr. Anderson..."
VastaKustutaMy (rather uneducated) guesses? The two-parter will be episodes 27 and 28, and will be the Cadence/Shining Armor episode(s) that has been hinted on. Why 27-28? Because I seem to recall there being a rumor about S2 being 28 episodes instead of the 26 in S1 (there was a posting here some months ago about a visit to a local Hasbro, I think Italy?). Also, the timing of the Cadence/Shining Armor episode(s) has been shifted around a bit as of late, from fall to spring.
VastaKustutaOf course, I could be completely wrong, but those are my thoughts.
Love how there are ponies on the right and a human skull on the left.
VastaKustutaWill Anderson is best pony, period.
VastaKustutaThat is a impressive battlestation.
VastaKustutaAwesome!
VastaKustutaAlso, I will never be FIRST...
Im wearing a brony shirt too.
VastaKustutathis guy is boss
Correction, Will Anderson is best Brony!
VastaKustutahis headphones are slightly nicer than mine. I should upgrade to at least Pony sound level.
VastaKustutaSO MUCH PONY SWAG
VastaKustutai want that job
VastaKustutaum like a faust much?
VastaKustutaThere's a Macbeth joke just waiting to be told from that pic.
VastaKustutaConfound these ponies, the keep making me have new "Best Day Ever" moments.
VastaKustutaA 2-part finale, Will Anderson, a song in finale, Will Anderson, and Will Anderson? Wow, this is looking hype
VastaKustutaI Hope he doesn't get in trouble for sharing that information.
VastaKustutathat top screen seems to say that frame is from episode 14. no reason to be working on an ep that has already been aired though, so that means it is possibly a frame from season 3 ep 14.
VastaKustutaall we know officially is that season 3 has only been approved for 13 eps. if this is indeed ep 14 from season 3, then that means this is evidence that season 3 got approved for a full third season.
Damn straight.
VastaKustutaManly Men=Ponies
VastaKustutaPonies=Will Anderson
Manly Man=Will Anderson
@Adrian Brony
VastaKustutaThat, or it could be an old picture from before episode 14 of season 2 was finished.
But I'm hoping for yours.
Jesus Christ. He has a freaking skull on his work desk. I don't care what people say, but having a murderer working on a little girl's show says a lot about how hardcore the crew is.
VastaKustuta@Adrian Brony
VastaKustutaColor me intrigued if that is what that 14 means. Hard to be certain, as it's just a number, but man, if that's the case, then considerable win.
I supposed only time will tell though.
I'm ready to wait an incredible episode
VastaKustutaAwesome is the...only way he could explain to his family and friends that his job is to do stuff to make girly ponies dance across the screen...LIKE A BAWS! Deep down inside I think FIM is a little brother's revenge fantasy on their older sister who used to force them to play ponies with them as little children.
VastaKustutaWith a motherfucking skull on his desk.
VastaKustutaAnd that's that. Every badass in the world can now rest, as this man has clearly won.
That timer says 1:51 (or 41, can't tell).
VastaKustutaLast Roundup shows that screen at 1:45.
That's quite a few seconds difference. On the other hand, if he's working on season 2 episodes right now, why would he have season 3 ones open?
We see Avenged Sevenfold in pony gear, and that picture will look like a puppy.
VastaKustutaFor now, badass.
@jessewq
VastaKustutaAccording to Will: "The skull came from an interior designer who was doing some stuff in my house - it just appeared in my studio one day. I wondered where it came from and then he copped to having left it there - he said he had had it for awhile and didn't know quite what to do with it, but when he saw my cave he felt it wanted to be here. So he just left it there. Later he told me it was real. It was a gift, I didn't pay anything for it."
El tiempo que sea necesario/the time that is necessary
VastaKustutatwo-part finale holy fucking balls
VastaKustutaI had a sudden flash in my mind that replaced the room and equipment with the Oval Office while keeping that same pose. Perfection.
VastaKustutaBut why would you tell me to stop typing when I was only going to agree with you, Cereal? :(
VastaKustuta@Worsh I'm with you on the two-parter most likely being the aforementioned episodes 27-28 (as well as it being focused on the Cadence/Shining Armor).
VastaKustutaOf course, now that I think about it, why do I have a feeling that the cliffhanger moment will involve Candence being kidnapped by "Tooth Decay"?
Two part finale? Most excellent! That should mean a more in depth story. Hope season 3 opens with a two parter as well. This is gonna be so awesome!
VastaKustutahe said the first part of the finale is episode 25...
VastaKustutaDamn, son. That setup is pretty awesome. So is Will Anderson apparently
VastaKustuta2 parter, eh? this is gonna be interesting.
VastaKustutaIt's a real skull? More badass!
VastaKustutaThrow up the horns!
VastaKustuta\m/
Cereal's got a bromance!
VastaKustutaCereals' got a bromance!
tee hee
Oooh comments. Let me get in on this *ahem*. Im saying WHOOOOOOO TWO PARTER. im thinking : crap, unless they release them at the same time we're gunna have a cliffhanger. CRAP! though the song will be interesting...

VastaKustutaWell damn. I didnt even.get to read that before you or s mod removed
VastaKustuta2-Part. Finale.
VastaKustutaI actually caved in and made a Blogger account because I desperately wanted to say how incredible this is.
Also epic Will Anderson makes everything amazing.
Honestly, if the finale is anything like the previous one, ill be happy!
VastaKustutaI see Will is no mere composer. Judging by the appearance of Bob, residing in the skull on his desk there, we can deduce that Mr. Anderson is actually a wizard. An audio wizard.
VastaKustutaLame, obscure Dresden Files reference there. Hey, it's been crossed over with MLP several times already. Stop looking at me like that!
In before Fox news with a report of how satanic cults make MLP:FIM.
VastaKustuta@adrian brony
VastaKustutawhat would you think?ponies will get so much seasons!
Ooh how many bronies got converted after 2011? This should be fun. If anyone reads this, that is. Or bothers to reply
VastaKustuta@macrosaur
VastaKustutaread the dresdon fillies. SO. GOOD! also any dresden referance is a GOOD reference
So..../)
VastaKustutadont leave me hangin'
I spy a rainbow dash wallpaper there!
VastaKustutaWorking on MLP = Confirmed for most badass job possible.
VastaKustuta@shutterclick brony
VastaKustutathank you, you may have a cookie. Ine of your own cookies that is. If you have any ;p i dont. Also nice name
That is mother flipping boss. So much awesome I can barely handle it!
VastaKustutaAlso he has a skull. You do not mess with Will Anderson.
VastaKustuta^ agreed
VastaKustuta2-parter... new villain? conflicts between characters?
VastaKustutatwilightyes.gif
VastaKustutaSo a 2-parter and a song....YES, YES! This is delicious!
VastaKustutaWill the song be in part one or part two? Or perhaps is spans into both parts?
VastaKustutaHopefully a discord reapearance as a cameo or somthing. i hope this time they dont use the elements for the 3rd time.
VastaKustutaDOUBLE EPISODE POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
VastaKustutaCool, two-parter AND a song, awesome!
VastaKustutaI own that shirt too!
VastaKustutaOi! I got left hangin! Anypony ELSE want a brohoof? /)
VastaKustuta@duskwisp
VastaKustuta/)*(\
@renk
VastaKustutawair. Is that a scott pilgrim profile picture? WIN!¡¡
0.0 My body was not prepared for the awesome Cereal! A two part finale with song! AWWWW YEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! I can't wait, but let's not get to the end of the season too soon! I really don't need that kind of separation all too soon.
VastaKustutathis guy is just superultraextremeawesomazing!
VastaKustutaalso, I want a skull too D:
@ombutesentdin
VastaKustutaLEGEND
Man, now I like my job even less. Way to go Cereal!
VastaKustutaHype has been got.
VastaKustuta@ShakeNDake
VastaKustutaheh, its gunna be at least ep25 or after. Dont worry yer whooves off!
Swag.
VastaKustutaThat is all.
That is a pretty cool set-up... but I've seen cooler >.>
VastaKustutagood to hear
VastaKustuta@micheal butcher
VastaKustutaorly? How cool? 20% cooler?
Also.if i were you i wouldnt make my acciunt name my actual name
*reads post
VastaKustuta*types ctrl+f --> chuck norris
o internet, you never disappoint me XD.
So, uh, Will Anderson is basically Hiro Protagonist except a musician instead of a pizza delivery guy.
VastaKustutaThat's cool.
I hope this show runs for many, many long years, much like one of my other favorite childhood shows, Arthur, which I still watch to this day.
VastaKustutaThe only appropriate response:
VastaKustuta*epic brohoof*
This guy is legend
VastaKustuta^who was that too?
VastaKustutaAlrught chas, mid yer language. There's a mod on th' prowl
The human skull on the desk really makes that setup.
VastaKustutaWhat a badass! William Anderson, you are best brony
VastaKustutaWhen I grow up, I want to be like Will Anderson.
VastaKustutaWords, they are lost.
VastaKustutaAT LAST! COMMENTS! now i have an exuse to post some moar.
VastaKustuta*brohoof...universe explodes*
VastaKustuta...is that a Line6 POD? I didn't know those still existed.
VastaKustutaMr. Anderson, you are indeed awesome.
BUCK YEAH!!! Day just got 20% cooler. /11:11 swag
VastaKustutaWhere exactly did he say there would be a song in the finale?
VastaKustutaAnd awesomeness ensued...
VastaKustutaAnd he also has a Brony t-shirt. AWESOME!
VastaKustutaThose headphones he has on the desk are hella pricy. That gets plus fifteen #SWAG.
VastaKustutaOH SHIT, SUN GODDESS
VastaKustutaThis info didn't come from a tweet or something? Based Anderson just straight up sent you an email? I just love that that can happen. MLP staff, you know you are our very best friends.
(Also NEW VILLAIN INCOMING)
Wish my computer set up was half as amazing as his... Also I need to get myself pony clothes. It's been too long. Far too long. To not have clothing... of ponies. :Ic
VastaKustutaThat fella is cool.
Season two finale being musical and two-parts is amazing.
ponies so gooood.
such a nice setup
VastaKustutaIt's always awesome to read about the creative process behind something as good as MLP:FiM. My favorite parts of Disney DVDs are the behind-the-scenes parts, where we're shown how scripts and ideas and characters and music for a given Disney movie are developed. I wish MLP:FiM would get a similar treatment in any upcoming DVDS. Soooo want that.
VastaKustutathis is TOO badass, I can't really handle it all at once.
VastaKustuta...that picture is the most awesome thing I have ever seen. My theory is, William Anderson is too amazing to exist in our plane of existance and is probably some sort of future species made out of pure awesomeness that has travelled through time and dimensions to grace our time and place with his presence.
VastaKustuta2 parts, song, NEW VILLAIN, NEW ALICORN PRINCESS. Fandom tsunami warning!
VastaKustutaJust the sight of that mixer made me orgasm.
VastaKustutaI'm suing this website for the death of "Rinzuul" he suffered immediate cardiac arrest upon laying eyes on the picture at the top of this page, sources dictating that it was "too awesome for his little heart to handle."
VastaKustutaI haven't looked at it yet, suppose I should take a lo
I've seen a more badass setup, but it was the Fall 1998 Tokyo Game Show, and... well, even I can't compete with that. Despite that, it's still over 9000 nanoLees on the badass scale.
VastaKustutaVery bucking metal bro, very bucking metal.
VastaKustutaMR. ANDERSON! -agent takes off shades- Hoofeus tells me your the one. But how can you make more poni poni poni if we take all your friendship?!?! -anderson sits up straight- first...im gona give you one of these... -flips off agent- then im going to take my phone, and leave.
VastaKustutaYay!
VastaKustutaThis will be so epic!
Well, the last time we had a song in a season finale, we got "At the Gala," so my money says we're in for quite a ride.
VastaKustuta@Senior Waffles I hope the season 3 opening will be a 2 part too.
VastaKustutaI think it will be some badass opening.
I can already feel the cliffhanger devouring my life.
VastaKustutaWill Anderson is a pretty cool guy. eh writes music for DHX and doesn't afraid of anything.
VastaKustutaHoly shit. Will Anderson's awesomeness just blew me away.
VastaKustuta@Bolan In last episode the CMC talked about a dragon.
VastaKustutaMaybe one of the dragons returns.

VastaKustuta"The finale is confirmed to be a two-parter."
VastaKustutaFigured
"The finale will have a song."
Oooh sweet.
a song !? YESYESYES
VastaKustuta@Jordan Can't find it either. Maybe someone derped William for Daniel?
VastaKustutaNow THAT'S bawsslike!
VastaKustutaHmm. MLP is playing in the top-right corner. There is a human skull in the bottom-left corner. There may be some discrepancy there.
VastaKustutaThe finale is a two parter, with a song?! Life = made. So excited for this!
VastaKustutaI think there gonna be cruel by making part one the finale and part 2 is the start of season 3
VastaKustutaAWESOME!
VastaKustutaAutor on selle kommentaari eemaldanud.
VastaKustutaI'm seeing an older mixer (could be a Soundcraft), what looks like either a Behringer or Presonus in the rack, and an unidentified pre-amp on the desk. Still, he's got a badass mic, some decent studio monitors, and a Korg M3 on his desk, so it can't be all bad. I would be lucky to have a setup like that.
VastaKustuta@OtterMatt
VastaKustutaHow much do you want to bet that what he uses are the Avantones? ;)
Was there really any doubt?
VastaKustutaAWESOME!!!
VastaKustutaThough I was in the impression the finale would be a three-parter
Oh well, STILL AWESOME!!!
uh, that's an api 1608, serial number 100, which is not old! in fact foo fighters used the same board for their new album. it cost me a small fortune. you might want to google it, and the berringer thing is an extra headphone amp,doesnt get used anymore. the rack stuff if hi end botique, ua la2, 1176, pendelum 6386 which is like a fairchild 670, the mic in the picture is an akg c12 vr, which just happens to be up, the mic pres are original vintage neve 1064's, there is a closet you don't see with 8 computers and a bunch of other audio stuff, it has its own air conditioner with a hospital grade fillter on it....i have a lot of other great outboard gear, vintage mics, custom guitars, etc. i love gear.
VastaKustutaand i LOVE those avantones. the other speakers are k&h 0300's, and i have a pair of yamaha ns 10's and then a four dollar pair of crap computer speakers. it's good to check your mixes on a lot of systems....
VastaKustuta...
VastaKustutaThe first twoparter: Twilight makes some friends, frees her teacher's sister from the jealousy consuming her
The second twoparter: Twilight and friends fight and (eventually) defeat an ancient god of chaos
so, twoparter = awesome
the first season end: Twilight and co liven up a party in the most awesome way possible
so, end of season = awesome
I am conflicted now, on one hand I cannot wait until the end of the season, on the other hand I don't want this season to ever end.
Will Anderson is best pony... Sorry, I had to do it.
VastaKustutaTwo parter? With a song? Epic Will?
VastaKustutaHOLY MOTHER OF CELESTIA I AM SO HAPPY
Two two-parters in a single season? Awesome! And that Will Anderson guy seems to be pretty awesome as well. Must be that best pony shirt he's wearing.
VastaKustutaI really hope we get to see discord again sometime
VastaKustutaSo... who's Daniel Ingram again?
VastaKustutaWILL FUCKING ANDERSON!!!!!! <3 <3 <3
VastaKustutaThe two parter is prabably the wedding and wedding song :p
VastaKustutaWILL FUCKING ANDERSON!!!!!! <3 <3 <3
VastaKustutaTWO-PARTER!!!! This is gonna be awesome I'm now actually looking forward to the finale, only to then be sad again when I realize no more new episodes until the fall. Luckily the Eureka 7 sequel will soften the blow.
VastaKustuta@Runeyshade One part for the song, one part for the wedding? ;D I'm hoping that this is actually going to set up a season finale cliff-hanger for the start of Season 3! They must know if they do that, they'll have us hooked harder on Pony than an addict on heroin! WE'LL SELL OUR INTERNAL ORGANS FOR MORE PONY AFTER THAT!!!
VastaKustuta*imagines comic ideas based on this theme... the Pony black market... Pony drug gangs... the FBI trying to stop Pony smuggled across the Canadian border... PWS: POny Withdrawal Syndrome* This idea... it's a comic gold-mine! :O
An Awesome Surprise that wowed us Bronies!!!! ^_^
VastaKustutaA final at the Phineas & Ferb style 2nd season style?
VastaKustutaIts Welcome! :)
My apartment is sad compared to this guy's office. Three screens + crazy audio mixer thingy? Le swag.
VastaKustutabut the details define this to be "THE" finale
VastaKustutaas in a slight confirmation that FiM might be over :(
Please let it not be so :(
Two part finale?! O_O
VastaKustutaHere's hoping that Discord returns.
VastaKustuta"Ponies and Discord have to combine their powers to battle bigger evil that threatens Equestria."
Maybe?
Wow thats awesome.
VastaKustutaNow that's a sweet set-up.
VastaKustuta(Now if I only knew what it all did.)
I want his job. LOL. I'm just happy to see he loves what he does. Wish we all can have a job like that...
VastaKustutaCan you feel it, Mr. Anderson? Bronies closing in on you? Oh I can, I really should thank you after all. It was, after all, it was your life that taught me the purpose of all life. The purpose of life is to watch ponies.
VastaKustutaOkay, I'm done.
Will Anderson confirmed for badass indeed.
VastaKustuta
