Update: It looks like this was all possible misinformation given to Matthieu by an unreliable source.
There's been quite a bit of new information revealed today regarding My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale and My Little Pony: Make Your Mark.
Earlier today, a video was posted on X of Hitch's previous French voice actor, Matthieu Meunier, speaking at a United Voice Artists conference. There, he spoke about how he was told that Hasbro had allegedly begun replacing voice actors with AI due to budget cuts. The dubs for TYT were affected by this decision, which was confirmed again by the Belgian voice actress Nathalie Stas in an interview on the radio station RTBF.
We don't know which dubs aside from French also use AI though, as there are a handful of dubs who do still use real voice actors.
Another thing to note was that a second season for My Little Pony: Make Your Mark was actually planned to be released by May 2024, but Cort Lane, one of the executive producers for MYM, apparently chose to cancel it. Allegedly, this was because Hasbro insisted AI to be used on the show, which he disapproved of.
Thanks to Lily at Equestria Daily for the translations. Please note that all of this information is speculation, and we do not have proper confirmation aside from this.
More quick art for fun!! I'd say I don't draw this ship enough but it's like half of the art I've done of G5 xD
This was just something quick and fun; doing a different perspective on their first meeting from the show!! I was too lazy to do a background though sooo colors!!

Violette Rainbow in Tell Your Tale!! It’s really cool they managed to get a character from the comics into the series! Looking forward to hearing a few lines from her and seeing who voices her!
Hope we see more ponies from the comics! Cherry from the Bridlewoodstock comic would be really cool to see. Well we’ve got 48 episodes and four specials this year. Maybe they will show up at some point.
Hey, I had a silly theory about the parents in my little pony: make your mark/new generation (or whatever you call it)
Anyways, let's start with hitch, at no point in the movie or the show we don't even see or hear of his parents, except for the christmas special, where we are introduced to grandma fig (I think that's how you write her name) who also appears in the new season of the show. My theory is: hitch parents died while he was young and he was created by his grandmother (who is probably a widow)
For the next we have sunny, she was created by her father, so that means he's a solo dad, so for this theory: I think he lost his wife, or she left him with sunny
Now, let's go with sprout (yes, I know he's not a main character, but I have a theory for him too) for him, I think his mom was married with the factory owner only for interest and then divorced him after they had sprout. He was angry and decided to left maretime bay for his own good. And sprout's mom (I forgot her name, sorry) is also the mayor
Skipping to the next ponys we have the sisters pipp and zipp. The queen heaven wasn't living in a happy marriage, or propably her ex-husband, the king, cheated on her. She banned him from zephyr heights not long before pipp was born (she's the younger sister). And that would explain why zipp doesn't looks like them
And last but not least, izzy and misty. They're probably sisters, and both orphans. Alfie took them in bridlewood, but misty got lost on the way and was adopted by Opaline
But that just a theory... a mlp theory, thanks for reading!
Have a Misty!! She's very quickly become one of my favorite parts of the new generation of MLP; as an abuse survivor myself, I find her arc really compelling, and I love how much she's grown over the past year or so since being introduced <3
I've been wanting to get more personal art done, and I also feel like it's just taking me a bit too long to get stuff done lately? So as a personal challenge I've decided to try and take a piece from start to finish in one day for... however long I'm able to keep it up. These are mostly gonna be simple pieces, though; the high detail stuff really takes too long to do in just one day unless I spend 12+ hours on it.
Hope y'all enjoy what I cook up n_n
