And thus the reveal of the third Musical Mane6 series is finally here :D Just in time for Halloween, the original Sci-Fi, and Horror icon himself! Frankenstein!

Introducing Twilight Sparkle as Twilight Frankenspark! A college dropout and wannabe god here to bring life to his creation! Instead of pursuing magic, Frankenspark focused on science! Determined to prove it's worth to those around him in this magic-focused world.

We LOVE the Frankenstein Musical, you should all really go check it out, and Twilight worked perfectly for the main role.
We never finished it tho, unable to figure out what to do for the ending ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Annabelle and I kept this one a secret for years, having ideas for it back in the early years of our channel when we were still making MonteCristo videos.

(This animatic is actually the second one we did for the Frankenstein series, but we never went further than pencil storyboards with the first one, so if you'd like to see it, you can find it here):

I talk about the Musical Mane6 series here so continue if you'd like to read it:


The main thing about the Musical Mane6 series is we wanted to put the mane6 into roles that were the opposite of their "elements".

Pinkie = Joyful Laughter/Evil Laughter
Rainbow Dash = Loyalty/Betrayal
Twilight = Magic/Science
(ok so Pinkie's is a bit of a stretch, and we made it before we had this whole 'series' idea, basing her character on her birthday episode where she goes insane, but we include it in the series because instead of her laughter being for joy, it becomes sinister and evil thanks to Hyde. Which is.... kind of an opposite?? right??)

We had ideas for the rest of the mane6 too. On Annabelle's DeviantArt, she's already revealed Fluttershy's series as being Phantom of the Opera (Flutters playing as the Phantom). Based a little on the episode where Flutterguy sings backstage. But also cause the Phantom is anything but Kind to those around him (manipulating the opera owners, harming Carlotta, murdering stagehands.. you know, the usual when going to the opera).

Rarity was (as many of you guessed) Sweeny Todd, (with Pinkie as Mrs Lovett). I don't remember why we thought this was a good opposite to generosity, I think it's cause most of the characters are completely selfish, but whatever.

And finally Applejack. She gave us a lot of trouble, we changed her musical around a few times, never settling on anything until we thought Les Mis would work. As Jean Valjean (Or Jack Valjack haha) we thought the role worked for her cause after Jean is released on parole, he decides to create a new identity, and lie to everyone about who he is. Constantly chased through the rest of his life by this lie, and Javert (who I think we were considering would be played by Luna)
We're still not super sold on this musical, but ehh.

And yeah, that was the Musical Mane6 series. We're not going to be continuing it. Maybe we'll do one or two songs from a musical if we feel like it, but not a full series of them like we did with MonteCristo. We'd like to go on to new things and other projects, so we hope you like what we can show you, and hope you stick around for future works from us :D Love you all! :DDD
