Months of speculation are at an end with exciting new information from Hasbro. A package has arrived at Equestria Daily Towers which include a full episode listing for the new G5 revamp. Sethisto did sign a Non Disclosure Agreement with Hasbro, however it transpired that he spelled he name wrong, so we can now exclusively reveal the full G5 season 1 episode list to you!
As you know, Hasbro has gone for a more sci-fi action adventure feel, however it's important to note that they are keeping true to the spirit and setup of G4, being much more a sequel series than a reboot. Episodes feature all our favourite characters, also there is a Spike episode.
Read on after the break and let us know which one you're looking forward to most!
