devee MLP - "Starlight's Dystopia (MLP IRL)" - Ponies IRL

 OUR TOWN IN REAL LIFE!?


davee MLP recently uploaded an MLP IRL video. If you'd like to find out more, check out the article below!

davee MLP, a YouTuber who mainly makes MLP in real life videos, recently uploaded a video titled "Starlight's Dystopia (MLP IRL)." The video showcases a city that has a similar lifestyle to Our Town from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Season 5 Premier episode "The Cutie Map" due to being under the control of pre-reformation Starlight Glimmer.

Boasting grainy video quality and editing, the whole video gives off the appearance of being recorded on an old video recorder (and possibly being viewed on a VHS player).


Several propaganda posters warning against changelings and Discord can be seen and several smiling equal ponies can be seen going about their day.


After viewing a poster calling for the viewer to join the Royal Equestrian Army (and overhearing a loudspeaker proclaiming "Exceptionalism is a lie!"), the scene changes to a video playing.


The video on the train plays the song "In Our Town" in black and white complete with staticky music and lyrics that sound like they're being played through the train's speakers.


Prior to and after exiting the train, a poster boasting "The Great and Powerful Trixie" and a poster warning against changelings with "You Never Know," the latter of which having one half of Queen Chrysalis and the other having half of Princess Cadance, can be seen as well.


The protagonist then reads what appears to be a piece of banned literature, as one of the Equal Ponies notices the protagonist and puts the book away.


The video then ends with the words "Starlight's Utopia" and "Free Yourself From Your Cutie Mark."


Despite the video's short length and having no dialogue between characters, it does an excellent job of showcasing the dystopian world in the video through background details, tense atmosphere, and grainy video and audio quality.

The similarities between the dystopian city and real world dystopias such as the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea can also drive real world fears in some viewers as many people unfortunately suffered and some cases still suffering under those regimes. The city's architecture being similar to that of cities in the former Soviet Union also give off heavy oppressive Communist feelings to viewers as well.

  2. This has the exact vibe of those... What were they called... Alt history horror videos? The popular one was the backrooms, but there was a bunch of different fields of that kind of content prior. Googling gave me the name of Analog Horror as the genre.
