That’s… still not enough evidence.

-Leah Jade in early March 2016 after meeting with DHX tweeted that “season 7 of MLP is in production” and in mid-April 2016 stated that she would remove said tweet if not OK to post.
 
-Later in mid-April 2016, Jim Miller was asked regarding the matter and replied, “We’re still working on 6!”, and Jade removed her relevant tweet.
 
-On April 29, 2016, Miller was asked, “Do you know if there will be a season 7 of MLP?”, and replied, “That’s Hasbro’s decision to make.”
 
Look like season 6 is the last season after all

@Jarkes
 
It was October 14, 2014. I blogged about it that day and included sources here. That was a few months before Season 5 started airing and about a month after Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks.

@Ihhh
 
I seem to recall it being announced right AFTER season 4 finished airing.

@Background Pony #1B3F  
Was it announced before season 4 was ANNOUNCED?

@Ihhh  
Wasn’t the movie announced before season 4 though? It seems movies just get announced much earlier.

@angrybrony  
Exactly.

@Ihhh  
why shouldn’t it come after the movie?

@Background Pony #C75A  
It makes no sense. Why would they announce a movie before season 7 if the season 7 premieres first? Simple answer, it doesn’t. Season 6 ties in with the movie, and season 7 comes after, if it comes it all, Which I very much hope it won’t.

@Ihhh  
That’s a bit early for that IMO.The movie is scheduled for November 2017.I think (and that’s just me making theories here) they can still release season 7 after January 2017 then release the movie.That would make sense with their objectives of having smaller hiatuses

@Background Pony #C75A  
The toy fair said that season 6 would be the tie in s3eason.

I only recognize Inspector Gadget, Slugterra, MLP and Kid vs. Kat, what are the other shows?

I’m absolutely no surprised if this is true.A tie-in season with the upcoming movie seem like a logical thing to do

The tweet on season 7 is no longer there.  
Maybe it was deleted? I think Hasbro would want to keep that stuff confidential until they’re ready.  
Unless of course it’s fake.

@Ihhh  
I also suspect that Hasbro plans more than one season at once, but never announces more than one season at a time. Meaning, it’s entirely possible season 7 was already planned to happen, but wasn’t announced yet.
 
They probably don’t announce more than one season at a time because it allows them to cancel future production if sales tank.

Oh hey, a fan artist.

@Ihhh  
Did you not see my earlier comment? I am wondering if perhaps they will air S7 before the movie to prevent a very long hiatus. If S6 and S7 were both written in such a way that the movie will reference both, I can see it working.
 
It’d be a bit unusual. I’m just wondering how Hasbro is going to maintain interest, seeing as they highlighted how maintaining content is important at a recent shareholder meeting. Lack of content seems to hurt sales. Thus, it would seem like Hasbro is planning on not leaving a huge hiatus open again. I just wonder how they’re planning on filling the gap.
 
|| You have a bit of a frustrating habit of not explaining your reasoning at all, so others often must guess at what you intend/mean. Like, “that doesn’t make sense”, but you don’t say how or what, specifically, you don’t understand, and how your conclusion differs. You seem to erroneously conclude that everyone shares the same understanding you do. ||

Her tweet about S7 is no longer there. probably deleted.  
Confirmation confirmed?

@ArrJaySketch  
Who said anything about season 7 airing before the movie?

@Ihhh  
It wouldn’t make sense if they wrote Season 6, then wrote the movie, then wrote season 7, and then aired them like S6 –> S7 –> movie.
 
I wonder if S6 and S7 were written together, and both were referenced in the movie.
 
I recall Amy Keating Rogers and M.A. Larson saying how they’d be working on 3-4 scripts at a time—not just Pony. Some show staff in the past would indiciate there’s a bit of lapse between work on seasons, and some DHX staff would go to other projects before going back to Pony for the next season.

Probably not the best idea for her to personally leak this, for her own sake. I’m glad she has though.

@Mr grump  
Well at lest she has a chance to be in it. now best pony sunset shimmer on the other hand? it’s mostly not going to happen.

@angrybrony  
 
Don’t you even joke about that!  
Hasbro has done similar things to characters before.  
Such a fate befalling the great and powerfull trixie would be a travesty of the highest order.

@Mr grump  
this just in, trixie dies off screen with 0 lines of dialog.

I want this show to go on forever but as long as the movie is awesome and trixie gets at least one more episode then I reckon I’ll be content.
