Hello!
Could I introduce a new tag for G5? :)
Considering there already was “i watch it for the plot” tag for the Gen 4 since 8 years ago. XD
I already tagged all (at least I think so) appropriate animated screencaps from the movie and the special.
Seriously, those ears various movements and twitches in the 3D G5 content is BEYOND adorable! :D
And people in comments really do focus on how much they love the ears in G5 and make fun remarks about them too, as I noticed by now.
And it’s kinda funny how this new tag also reflects the fact the “plots” are flatter looking in G5 than they were in G4, so attention goes to ears now more. XD
This tag would only be appropriate on such animated screencaps (gif or video) in which ears cute movements are the focus or just really noticeable.

I also love the cute wiggly pony ears, especially when they’re used to emote the same way real horses do (such as tilting forward for interest/friendliness, swiveling back for fear, or pinning back for anger)!

The difference is that in G5 the ears are 3D, and are a lot more expressive and with more freedom of movement. So they catch a lot more attention and are worthy of the special treatment. :)
And in the 3D G5 content animators really add a lot more of “unnecessary to the story” subtle movements for the ears, unlike it was in MLP FiM.
So, it’s a tag for the action of moving ears in various adorable ways, so to speak, meant for animated scenes only. (The ears should be moved by a pony, and not just moved by inertia of one’s head movement).
As for your question about G4… I suppose, if the ears in a gif/video are being moved by a pony in a very expressive way, it could be fine to tag those the same way (but I couldn’t find anyting even close to what I tagged with the tag for G5 3D content even among the MLP Movie from 2017).
Well, there already were floppy ears, ears back, one ear down, and ear twitch
Well, there already were butt, plot, etc. ;)
But we do have a tag i watch it for the plot for appropriate moments (like when the show’s frame looked like it focuses too much on a pony’s butt).
There are tags for “cold functionality” and there are tags for a more fun side of things (like all those “character + betes” tags, or some other long phrases I see being in use on the site still, like we are going to hell etc).

IMO, that Starlight gif that @Background Pony #52BA posted is a valid FiM example to use for the tag, as her ears are more active than merely being statically pinned when she’s angry.

Thanks for sharing that DALL-E mini tag. I have some truly cursed images to share [though some of them are also very barely pony related—if not outright not pony related—in their output in spite of the prompt’s intent to create MLP art clop]. I’ll upload them later this week when I need a break from work and writing.

How long ago? Said artist might have changed their minds and make it a one-sided ship at best. And within this image, it doesn’t give off shipping vibes to be, just Chrysalis taunting the Princess of Love for not showing love to her.

The artist mentioned in the description of this pic that they ship the two of them and has a story/headcanon dedicated to them
So its safe to assume that these 2 pics are also related to their story and are shipping related
