Nightly Roundup #1459
by Calpain
It's cool that we have some new friends to add to the cast, but one thing I always worry about with FiM is that with such an expansive cast whether or not they are able to give the characters enough screen time to do them justice. Hopefully the rest of season 8 plays out well!
News time guys, get it all after the break.

Suskii's recently released EP was headlined by Top Bug, a killer dubstep track that's also gotten a remix from Einarx. It's cool to see a different take on the original, as Einarx brings his heavy and varied sound design to the table with some excellent arrangement throughout the drops. Check it out below!

Something strange has been added to the Gameloft app for the same price as a brand new Steam game. Chaos Princess Pinkie Pie is now available, complete with a Chaotic Orchestra building on the side.
Great but, Pinkie Pie the alicorn?! What? Where is this one from? The comics have been the most recent push for the Gameloft app, but this... is completely different. Is it a hint at a future episode? As far as we've seen, it doesn't fit into any of the known synopsis coming up. Unless it's a one-off joke at some point.
(Update: Looks like this was a comic plot from #57! I blame skipping the ponk comics cause im biased )
Thanks to Explosionmare, Fluttershy Melody, abd Dreadmaster231 for the heads up.

With the season premiere finished we now start the season proper with episode 3, starring none other than fan favorite Maud Pie! It's really nice to be getting back into the swing of things again, it's always so slow during the off season.
As Seth mentioned last week we have tons of resources for you guys to check on if you want to get caught up on promos for the season, synopses, an animatic for today's episode along with an overall Equestria Girls guide, and a new Instagram we're starting!

We've got a whole fandom of fanon based ponies, along with a bunch of side ponies who could potentially take up a place at Twilight's school. Considering ponies seem to have unlimited amounts of free time to do anything regardless of how busy they appear to be with their day-to-day lives, lets assume all are eligible.
And so, you have been chosen to pick up some new teachers to help enlighten the next generation of cartoon animals who can't quite figure out this friendship thing. It's incredibly confusing over in ponyland after all.
Who do you pick? Should Iron Will bring his self help seminars and motivate the creatures of Equestria to be more assertive? Or should one of our fanon pones come in and teach denistry/dubstep/mail delivery/monster hunting/sex ed/or whatever other weird thing we've had them do?
Discuss below!

[Comedy][Adventure][Crossover]
Author: Horizon
Description: There's a crime wave gripping the sleepy town of Apple-Morepone, and nopony on the City Watch seems to care. Corporal "Rainbow" M. Dash naps through her patrols, her partner Dobby is an infamous kleptomaniac, Captain Rhymes is a drunkard, and the entire Watch is a group of burnt-out misfits.
They're about to meet a batpony (adopted) by the name of Carrot, visiting town to return an overdue library book. And none of their lives will ever be the same.A crossover with Terry Pratchett's Discworld, specifically the "City Watch" books. However, written to be readable without any familiarity with the series.
Watch! Watch! (Link fixed!)

fractilx is back after a while since their last stuff, and it's a welcome return with an energetic and smooth trance tune that has some great production throughout. A nice combination of pad and piano-based breaks with heavy hard trance synths makes for a nicely structured track. Check it out below!

I wasn't sure if we were running this one, but the amount of submissions we've had of it seem to hint that we should. Yesterday, a post on /r/videos on Reddit hit the front page and went viral across the internet, showing a little girl crazy excited that she was going to get to watch the My Little Pony movie her mom rented for her. Ever wonder why they went with seaponies? This is it.
Head on down below to watch.

EFNW Announces a Ton of Community Guests!
by Calpain
EFNW has a whole bunch of community guests to announce for this year's event, including a ton of EqD staff that will be on site (as well as Seth, when he can be pried away from Trixie/Glimmer).
Wish I could go, but I'll probably be on an island in the middle of Lake Michigan around that time. Hope everyone has fun!

[Drama][Romance][Sad]
Author: Thornquill
Description:
“Sometimes, you can’t have the family you want. Even if you’d give anything for it.”
For Sunburst, risen from obscurity to Court Wizard of the Crystal Empire, life has taken an incomparably good turn. Shining Armor and Cadence have almost become a second family to him, and Princess Flurry Heart like the daughter he never had.
Hoops, by contrast, has lived life on his terms since day one. With flight school behind him, his career in the professional leagues ought to be all but guaranteed—if only the pros would let him in already.
And when Sugarcube Corner burns down, it should not affect either of them.Yet, when façades start to fracture, their connections to Ponyville's model family will threaten even the most sacred bonds. Before long, Sunburst, Hoops, and the Cakes will all have to decide if the past can be buried again, or if the old, comfortable stories just aren't enough anymore. In only one way, they are all alike: To get what they want, they are all willing to risk shattering every life around them—and maybe even their own.

We might be seeing more Quibble Pants in an upcoming My Little Pony episode. This was posted on his wife's Instagram account a few days ago. Apparently whatever episode it is runs with a family theme. Usually a season's recording is done pretty early, so maybe this is for season 9? It could even be an entirely different set of characters.
You can find her page over here.
Thanks to LML and Maya for the heads up.

The new DuckTales series launched in 2017, and their most recent episode decided to throw a pony bone out there. They are even voiced by Tara Strong and Andrea Libman. They don't have butt symbols or really any relation to MLP script wise, but the voice actors and colors make it pretty obvious.
Since it's Disney, we aren't touching streams with a 10 foot pole. It's out there though, just begging to be watched.
Thanks to Miak for sending it.

It's that time again, where new songs from the show mean some musicians giving their own unique takes on them! Osoch has already managed to put together a few great metal show covers, so it's no surprise to see this one from him. It makes good use of the vocals from the original, with some heavy guitar and percussion adding some nice energy. Check it out below!

Jackie's music is always super happy, with such a fun and upbeat atmosphere, it's hard not to groove along. Featuring a whole heap of great synth design and sample usage, the blissful atmosphere suits Tree Hugger's laidback style quite well, and her vocal samples are used to nice effect too. Check it out below!

The new set of figurines that was announced a while back from Finders Keepers has appeared at Walmart for anyone wanting to collect these guys. At least until they are shut down for that choking hazard thing they banned Kinder eggs for. Those monsters..
As always, be sure to call before checking as Walmart stores tend to be pretty random.

Every month, for a year, I have reviewed an issue in this series. It has been an enjoyable run and so I write this review with some sadness.
But our heroes are coming to the end of the quest and the start of their downfall. How did we get from the journey to meet heroes to one pony's fall into darkness?
Check out the full review after the break, but beware the spoilers! And no, I'm not just talking about what we already saw in Shadow Play.
