An Animated Appointment With Baymax Awaits This Summer

I guess if Disney had not purchased Marvel in 2009 [29], there would not have been an animated Disney film based on the Big Hero 6 comic book series in 2014 [3] [33]. We were first introduced to Baymax on richly coloured pages back in late 1998, long before the Disneyfied incarnation of him was invented [4] [16] [17]. I recall posing with him as the 2013 version of Lara Croft at MCM Birmingham Comic Con back in early 2016 [27] [36]. Some of our fellow gamers may recall his appearance in Kingdom Hearts III [25]. He sure has some creatively bizarre dreams when he needs to recharge, I tell you [9]! Nothing seems to be stopping his medical services as the trailer for a new series starring him as the titular character was released back in late 2021 [30]. As it has been two days since the release of the second official trailer for the forthcoming series coming to Disney+ [10] [31], now is the time that this Disney desirer expresses her thoughts on such an idea before she receives some medical advice from the loveable healthcare companion, starting with the kind of warm hug Olaf likes after the amazing time she had at the Arcade Club in Manchester [3] [13] [35].

I know it is early to say this, but I just hope I will not have to eat spouts this Christmas, even though the sweet inflatable robot would tell me that they are nutritious [24]. [30] [31]
Some of our dear comic book crusaders may say that nothing will beat the Big Hero 6 comics that began in 1998 and were revived in 2008 [4]. But due to the success of the animated Disney adaption in the mid-2010s [3], will a new series on Disney+ excel for any fan of Big Hero 6 before the release of the teaser trailer for Big Hero 7 [26]? [4]

The new trailer begins with Hiro Hamada waking up to see that Baymax is absent in his room [7] [31]. The reason for this is his new objective; being a healthcare assistant for other humans in San Fransokyo [26]. As shown in the first trailer that was released back in November, he will aim to help run Aunt Cass’ business at the Luck Cat Café after she is advised to rest her sprained or broken ankle and greet an elderly woman named “Kiko” with adjustable volume control and recommend daily exercise [30]. In the second trailer, he will also aim to aid the driver of a fish delivery truck [7] [31]. Unfortunately, the way he accidentally photobombs and upsets a bowl of ramen will show that he can be a comic relief outside of his duties. Although the cat he tries to bond with deflates with him by poking holes in his body, there is a chance that he may be a potential veterinarian. Well, it is not the first time he tried to hold a kitty [8]. Aside from the cause of him being covered in bandages at a school presentation [30], he is always adorable. After all, he was the Most Huggable Character of 2015 [32].

To be honest, I would not be embarrassed if Baymax was my healthcare assistant and he detected that I was having a certain moment of a woman’s life, considering how gentlemanly he would be about it to me [15] [22]. If Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus were rated 12 and T for Teen [20] [21], then there would be a mention of it in the game for a specific reason. [31]
The moment of Baymax running the café at an unbearably slow pace in the previous trailer is a prime example of humour in the forthcoming series. He may be quite absent-minded during duties outside of healthcare, but he is sure to be a fun and tender-natured character as he goes swimming with Kiko and shows support for a young girl at the school she attends. [30]

Aside from Baymax’s efforts to be the best healthcare assistant he can be in San Fransokyo, what other elements in the upcoming short series could be there? There appears to be some source of endangerment and how a character would handle it, such as how Baymax managed to grab a thin wooden stake before it could pop him. There is also a scene of Hiro summoning the army of microbots to let him find Baymax, which could lead to some further character exploration for them, even though they are just little specks with metal that have surreal abilities [3] [8] [11] [12]. Could the other members of the superhero team make a short appearance in some scenes [3]? Perhaps there could be a moment when Baymax needs to be powered up in his superhero armour in the final episode for a satisfying finale, despite how rather unlikely that sounds as that would be more fitting for a resolution of a direct feature-length sequel to Big Hero 6 preferably titled “Big Hero 7” [3]. It is quite ambitious that the third, fourth and fifth episodes will not be directed by Dean Wellins as different directors can provide different developments in terms of storytelling and character progression [26].

Seriously? This fellow is Baymax, not Count Dracula [28]! [31]

Since there might as well be some elements in all six episodes of Baymax! besides the titular character’s clumsiness and helpfulness [26], perhaps there can be some new exploration for Hiro. [31]

Being a modern 3D Disney film outside of Pixar Animation Studios, this upcoming animated series consists of highly admirable visuals [7] [30] [31]. The town of San Fransokyo has a vibe that fittingly combines elements of San Francisco and Tokyo, including the ramen stall that has two lovely lanterns with blossoms printed on them and blossom trees in certain areas. There are also the cartoonish appearances of the human characters to bring out the charming modern Disney aesthetics. The 2D animation in Big Hero 6: The Series may have been considered a cost-cutting decision, but it was still vibrant and faithful to the exceptional character design and colourfulness of the film [11] [12]. The chibi art style of the Big Chibi 6 Shorts was pretty quirky and expressive but bringing back the high-budget 3D style once again sure helps the new series’ potential excel as a brand new spin-off [7] [8] [9] [10] [30] [31]. The return of the beautiful animation from the feature-length film and the dream sequences in the animated series is sure to evaluate the adventurous and comedic nature of the upcoming series. I do not doubt that it will be present in a theatrical sequel possibly titled “Big Hero 7” in the near future of Disney movies. 

As an art lover, I just have to praise the animation. I guess I could live in a town like San Fransokyo. [31]

I also wonder what hair gel Hiro and Sora from Kingdom Hearts use to keep their hair all stylishly spiky [25]? [31]
The first episode of Baymax! will be available to watch on Disney+ on the 29th of June [7] [10] [30] [31]. It sure will be crazily thrilling to see She-Hulk in live-action on the same streaming service as well this August, just in time after the sixth episode [18] [26]. Speaking of crazy, would you believe that the original design for Sonic the Hedgehog in the first trailer for his live-action adaption made a return as “Ugly Sonic” in the very ambitiously made Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers [6] [14]? But as creative and quirky we can be, we need to be tender-hearted and considerate with second thoughts as we follow our passions [1] [5]. Outside of Disney+, it will not be long until our fellow space cadets blast off with Buzz Lightyear as the story of how his passion for his duties as a ranger began gets told [23]. As for Baymax!, I do not doubt that the adorable robotic healthcare companion will be as respectful and compassionate as he can be in San Fransokyo sometime after our fellow gamers help the league of angry birds rescue their eggs from those pesky pigs in a new Minecraft adventure [19]. I shall not deactivate into Aurora mode until you state that you are satisfied with this analysis [3].

I also wonder what could be next for Disney in a few years after we tune into Baymax’s duties on Disney+ [7] [10] [26] [30] [31]? A sequel to Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers ought to provide some redemption for a full-grown Peter Pan that will lead to him becoming one of the good guys for a very specific reason [1] [5] [6]. I would love to see Elsa find a female love interest in Frozen III [2]. [30]
If any of you would still prefer the Big Hero 6 comics from Marvel or would prefer to wait for Big Hero 7, that is absolutely fine [4] [16] [17]. On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate this article [3] [33]? You have been a good reader. Have a lollipop, but please do not slice your significant other’s head off with a chainsaw [34]. How about a fist bump [3] [24]? Ba la la la la! [10] [26]

Another Mark To Be Made In the Fifth Generation Of My Little Pony

Hello, everypony! It has been almost a year since the beginning of a new generation of My Little Pony, most notably the announcement of the gorgeously animated special on Netflix set years after the finale of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic [54] [55]. I deeply appreciate the special’s theme of ending prejudice and encouraging equality, despite how it could have been more subtle and less preachy to some of us [3]. But then again, the message is still important to this day as I can see the benefits of removing transphobic elements from a remaster of Grand Theft Auto V [12]. Even though I am aware that many of us still miss the fourth generation of the My Little Pony franchise, especially in the early 2010s before Twilight Sparkle became an alicorn [14] [39], I am quite hyped to analyse the trailer for yet another film about the fifth generation after being bewildered at three characters from Sesame Street as mecha builders and a speedy blue hedgehog showing some new prime potential for a new cartoon starring him on Netflix [31] [50] [51] [59]. It was first revealed back in April [6], so now is the time I hold my hopes up as high as Zephyr Heights [19] [33] [34]. Once again, I hope everypony stayed lucky on Friday the Thirteenth yesterday [46] [48].

Here we go again, everypony! Analysing a trailer for a Generation Five My Little Pony film the day after Friday the Thirteenth [46] [48]! Again, I hope plenty of us were lucky, considering the reproduction of four fangtabulous ghouls from Monster High sparking electrifying hype at the moment [17] [18]. [5] [7]

Before the announcement of the next special, there was the release of My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale, a new web series on the official My Little Pony YouTube channel [25] [26] [27] [28] [29]. To me, the 2D animation was passable as it vaguely reminded me of My Little Pony: Pony Life [2]. There was also a new cast of voice actors and actresses for the ponies who did quite good jobs in their roles [26] [29]. The premises for each episode are varied with simple plots that led to learning a specific social skill, from Izzy Moonbow being that kind of roommate to Zipp Storm becoming a flight instructor [27] [28]. I can jam to the working song from “A Home to Share” for my next written analysis or two [25]. I very much appreciated the outcome of the web series at the time of its release just before seeing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 at the cinema with my significant other as it somehow can be preferred over the two seasons of My Little Pony: Pony Life for specific reasons [2] [6] [40]. Can you imagine the Mane Five in the Tell Your Tale style turning into seaponies and meeting SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star and Squidward Tentacles in a futuristic art style [1] [41]?

I can tell that the production of Tell Your Tale is cheaper, but it is still passable with some decent moral-driven plots and colourful animation [26] [27] [28] [29] [30]. [25]

What new developments await the Mane Five in Make Your Mark, aside from the return of the cast for My Little Pony: A New Generation [54] [55]? Firstly, Sunny Starscout once again has the rainbow streaks in her mane [19] [33] [34]. It appears she ought to learn how to master a new ability with a magical aura consisting of a horn and a pair of wings, which makes her seem like the next Twilight Sparkle without elected royalty. Izzy still seems to be the comic relief, considering the moment with her face covered in leaves and when a pizza lands on her horn. Zipp could once again be a flying teacher for young ponies. Aside from that, Hitch Trailblazer seems to have gained the ability to understand critters, but is it like Eliza Thornberry’s ability to talk to animals under the influence of magic in Maretime Bay [37]? Pipp seems to keep following her passion for singing [19] [33] [34]. Well, the previous special was a musical after all. I am still convinced that the diversity of the Mane Five, including one of the ponies being male, is to make a new continuation seem more gender-neutral and help it maintain the status of ironically appealing to young men from the Friendship Is Magic days [16] [52] [53].

It was Sunny Starscout’s dream to restore harmony and equality in Equestria [8]. Can she eventually master the magic of an alicorn? [33]
I bet Hitch would be a great new friend for Sonic the Hedgehog for a reason [39]. [33]

It sure is great to see earth ponies, unicorns and pegasi finally get along to show that friendship is once again magic [19] [33] [34]. However, not everypony is happy with magic being introduced to Maretime Bay. Luckily, there shall be a festival to try and validate the use of magic even further. But suddenly, a mysterious new conflict will occur as the weather becomes stormy, which brings out the dark vibes of the climax in the animated film based on the first generation [14]. Surely, the earth ponies who are still bitter toward the idea of unicorn magic in their residences will eventually grow to tolerate it. Sprout Cloverleaf may have been a rather engaging antagonist who did not believe in unity between all three types of ponies in A New Generation [32], but I guess there can be more moments of him putting his outdated prejudices and being an angry, angry mob leader behind. Reflecting on Sunny’s wing and horn aura, could there eventually be the introduction of some more alicorn ponies in the special, the animated series set after its events or Winter Wishday later this year [7] [9]? I suppose there ought to eventually be introductions of seaponies and breezies in the fifth generation [20] [21].

I know this already seems like a huge spoiler, but there is a sign of equality still being maintained in a new society in Equestria as the unicorns and pegasi proceeded to get the earth ponies unstuck. [33]
But firstly, the main conflict will be not everypony tolerating the use of magic in Maretime Bay. Sadly, this kind of thing is too true in real life. Trust me, I know from what I have witnessed [10] [11] [45]. [33]

Are there any new magical elements aside from different reactions to magic in Maretime Bay? As previously mentioned, there is an expansion of the long-overdue harmony between all three types of ponies [19] [33] [34]. It is about time Generation Número Cinco introduces adorable baby dragons to further increase the faithfulness to how made Friendship Is Magic iconic besides witty moments and varied character traits. The dragon the Mane Five encounter is as adorable as the next collaboration between Tamagotchi and Sanrio [38] [42] [44]. I suppose there can be another mentioning of how the Mane Six from Friendship Is Magic were an influence many years ago for some good old time’s sake [4]. Aside from new plot points for further character development and such [19] [33] [34], there ought to be some new musical numbers in some scenes to elevate the appeal of watching a film about anthropomorphic ponies in a vibrant fictional world with the song playing in the trailer as an example [14] [33], very much like how I am expecting new songs in the second season of Helluva Boss [15] [16]. Besides, Pipp was hitting that note in a live stream and Hitch was warming up his vocals a bit in his office. 

Welcome to the cast, Spike V2.0. [33]


The visuals are once again unmistakably stunning, honouring the appeal of Hello Pinkie Pie, but looking even better [19] [22] [24] [33] [34]. The movements of the characters are lively and expressive with rather convincing facial expressions. Just look how beautifully detailed the ponies’ manes and tails are, quite like Rapunzel’s hair in Tangled [43]. There are some other nifty effects in several scenes, including the magical aura from Izzy’s horn and the burst of emojis spewing in a live stream hosted by Sunny and Pipp Petals [19] [33] [34]. Aside from how realistic various textures are, the backgrounds, including the interior and exterior of Mane Melody are vibrant and detailed with some bright colours that are not too saturated. The balloons at the festival are an example of colourfulness being maintained proportionately. I can tell that the animation is not cheap and it is cherished to enhance the forthcoming special’s potential to be a great follow-up to the previous one [52] [53]. Similarly, I am very much expecting the same quality of the animation in the first season of Helluva Boss to be put into the upcoming second one [15] [16]. As long as the budget for it is still there, the same incredible animation can boost the appeal of a follow-up [32] [52] [53].

I can say the same thing about the graphics in the announcement trailer for Kingdom Hearts 4, even though Sora’s iconic hairdo has been given a trim [36] [59]. [6]
Being an art lover, I would love to walk into a place like this! It is so colourfully regal, quite like LEGO Princess Peach [56]! [6]


There may not be a much better reboot of The Powerpuff Girls or a revival of Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends happening later this year [57] [58] [62] [63], but there is another chapter of the fifth generation of the My Little Pony franchise spreading its wings and strutting its magic with its horn later this month [19] [31] [33] [34]. Later this September, there will be a television series set after its events [7]. Can the magic be maintained in Maretime Bay after so long [19] [33] [34]? I still consider myself a pegasister as I fondly remember playing the mobile game on my iPod Touch back in my first and second year of college, even though some did not consider me to be its target demographic [4]. Ultimately, if any bronies and pegasisters adore the fifth generation so far nearly as much as they loved the Friendship Is Magic era, great for them [14]. I shall not judge since I was insulted for doing video game journalism during the Christmas break [49]. What an interesting year for cartoons 2022 has been so far, everypony [59]! I just wonder what else could be new? A new icy blue ribbon emoji [47]? A spiritual successor to Equestria Girls with the Mane Five as colourful humans at a high school in a human world [23]?

Who knows what the animated series set after the events Mark Your Mark and Winter Wishday will bring [7] [9]? Will some of my fellow gamers enjoy a Maretime Bay adventure [35] [60] [61]? Stay harmonious, everypony! [33]
