1
Do you know Equestria is full of creatures that go way beyond just the ponies in My Little Pony,
2
from basic dragons to magical reindeer?
3
And hear me out, if you're not totally sure about watching this video,
4
let's make a deal.
5
I'll show you everything in a simple and fun way,
6
and in return, you stick with me till the end.
7
Hey beautiful people, I'm Julie,
8
and number 1, kicking things off with a creature we already know from the series, dragons.
9
Thaught and strong-willed, the dragons start out as adorable gentle babies,
10
just like our boy Spike.
11
But it's not just their appetite for gems that grows,
12
their bodies do too.
13
Just compare that spike at the end of G4 to the spike in G5.
14
Number 2, birds.
15
Show up all of Equestria,
16
from regular little songbirds to magical species like Philomena, Princess Celestia's pet phoenix.
17
Most of them don't talk and are super gentle,
18
but it was in the 2017 movie that we discovered these species can also be anthropomorphic,
19
like Captain Kalino and her crew.
20
Number 3, canines.
21
Just like birds, range from regular animals to more humanoid forms.
22
For example, Applejack's dog, Wynonna,
23
is just a normal farm dog who doesn't talk at all.
24
On the other hand, diamond dogs are a species that lives in isolation,
25
constantly digging for gems.
26
They're pretty rough around the edges and obsessed with health,
27
but they're not completely evil.
28
Number four, felines.
29
Follow that exact pattern as canines.
30
Some are just regular cats like Rarities pet opalescence,
31
while others are more humanoid,
32
like Caper, who's not only charming but also pretty mysterious.
33
Number five, as for bovines,
34
most of them are just regular non-speaking animals, like yaks and bolls.
35
And back in season one,
36
we saw that only one of the cows actually talked.
37
But it's never made clear if she was the only one who could speak
38
or if the others just didn't feel like talking to Applejack.
39
Either way, most of these bovines play an important role in keeping Equestria in balance.
40
Number 6, other equines like Saddle Arabian Delikids showed up very briefly in the series like in Magical Duel
41
and Road to Friendship episodes.
42
Even though they look more like realistic horses,
43
official G-Force horses actually classify them as earth ponies.
44
Number 7, Deer showed up way more in the comics than in the show itself, unfortunately.
45
And I'm not talking about regular deer,
46
I mean the ones that actually talk.
47
And most of them have a calm demeanor and are portrayed as wise.
48
Number 8, we also have the reindeer,
49
more specifically the gift givers of the groove,
50
from the special best gift ever.
51
Alice, Aurora and Bori.
52
These three represent the past,
53
present and future of the holiday spirit.
54
And they help any pony or creature who comes up to them to find a gift that's truly meaningful and useful,
55
just like what happened with Pinkie Pie's gift to Twilight in that special.
56
Seriously, if you haven't watched it yet,
57
go check it out ASAP,
58
but only after this video, okay?
59
Number 9, Changelings.
60
Are shade shifter pony-like who can turn themselves into other ponies and creatures to blend in.
61
At first, they were villains,
62
feeding off love of the others and following King Chrysalis.
63
But once they learned how to give love, the changelings changed.
64
Literally.
65
Losing their creepy look and becoming way more colorful.
66
A massive glow up.
67
Number 10.
68
Griffins Are half eagle, half lion creatures combining strength and pride with a tough independent attitude.
69
They can come off a little rude,
70
but not in a bad way.
71
They're not exactly known for forming close bonds.
72
But thanks to the Twilight School of Friendship,
73
they've learned to value friendship and the people they care about.
74
Oh, and the Griffins also said you should like this video if you're enjoying it.
75
Hey, don't look at me.
76
That was their idea, not mine.
77
Number 11, Hippogriffs.
78
Combine traits from both birds and ponies,
79
and they have the ability to turn into sea ponies,
80
which I'll talk about in just a bit.
81
They can adapt to both land and underwater environments,
82
making sure their species survives no matter where they are.
83
Number 12, meanwhile we have the breezes,
84
those tiny incredibly delicate creatures.
85
Even though they look like ponies,
86
they're not exactly 100% ponies, you know.
87
That's why they made into the list.
88
And despite being so fragile,
89
they're surprisingly ununited and pretty brave.
90
Number 13, another creature that looks very similar to ponies are the Kirings.
91
In addiction to having a stronger connection to the forest and nature,
92
they transform into fiery versions of themselves if they lose emotional control,
93
which is why they live isolated from the rest of the world.
94
But they're good creatures though.
95
Number 14, unlike the Sirens who use their voices to create conflict and feed off the negativity and discord among humans,
96
That's why in the past they were banished to the human world by Starzworld the Bearded.
97
Though they still kept using their voices for a while and speaking of Discord...
98
Number 15, Draconecus.
99
Like Discord and Cosmos, have almost unlimited chaos magic.
100
They can bend reality and act completely unpredictably.
101
Even so, they're capable of emotional grunt,
102
and proving that even these chaotic beings can develop friendship and loyalty.
103
And if you're a fan of Discord,
104
leave a comment here telling me why you like this character so much.
105
Number 16, the Sea Ponies live deep in the ocean,
106
with bodies adapted for life underwater.
107
And ruling over that part of the sea is Queen Novo,
108
who can also move between land and ocean as well.
109
Number 17, the Nyx are creatures that live in the moon and are connected to the dream realm.
110
Unfortunately, in the past, they were victims of Nightmare Moon strictly to learn their techniques.
111
But after being defeated, that knowledge went on to influence Princess Luna's powers,
112
who uses it only to help the ponies.
113
Number 18, now Minotaurs, like Iron Will,
114
are strong and very proud creatures.
115
Pretty rough around the edges,
116
but they didn't get much spotlight in the series.
117
Number 19, the Umbra are shadowy creatures made of pure darkness.
118
Just like King Sombra himself,
119
even though they resemble ponies,
120
their creatures do not have cutie marks and are extremely dangerous,
121
with no compassion or kindness in them at all.
122
So stay away from them.
123
Number 20, and you really thought I was gonna forget the zebras.
124
Even without having any kind of magic,
125
zebras are deeply connected to nature and to brewing magical potions.
126
And they always speak in rhyme.
127
So here's a tip from this diva.
128
Hasta la vista!

練習のコツ
このビデオは親しみやすいトーンで話されているため、shadowingには最適です。ビデオのスピードに合わせて聴き、同じように声に出してみましょう。特に、各種族の特性や行動について短いフレーズが多く使われているので、ポイントごとに繰り返し練習することで、英語の発音を良くすることができます。最初はゆっくりとしたペースで繰り返し、慣れてきたら徐々にスピードを上げていくと良いでしょう。特に、「shadow speech」技法を用いることで、より効果的に発音が改善されるでしょう。また、好きなシーンを選んで、YouTubeで英語学習を楽しむのも良い方法です。リズムに乗って声を出すことで、より自然な英語を身につけることができます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
