We now have confirmation on the excact release date for the 3 part series finale this year. While other countries have leaked an released early, this is still going to be our technical ending of the overall pony show.
There are rumors building of shorts following the end, but we don't have any official confirmation on that yet. Hopefully it's true! I still need my bats! And more kirin...
We also have a special program airing on October 11th that celebrates the last decade of pony. It apparently dives into the behind-the-scenes world of how the show was made. Hopefully that doesn't somehow leak too!
Anyway, head on down below for the announcement.
