General Pony Info:

General Information
Spoiler
My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic marks the 4th generation of Hasbro's popular toy line and cartoon. And it's by far the best yet. The reboot was created by Lauren Faust, known for animation and storyboarding work on movies like 'Cats Don't Dance' and 'The Iron Giant', and cartoons like 'Power Puff Girls' and 'Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends'. She and a team of well known cartoon script writers, and a good portion of the storyboarding team behind 'Ed, Edd n Eddy', set out to create a cartoon which was appropriate for the target 6-10 year old girl demographic, but equally enjoyable by all audiences. They succeeded.

After an alarmist article posted by Cartoon Brew caught the attention of a certain site's /co/ board, some animation fans decided to give the show a shot either out of curiosity or lulz. Turns out the show was pretty darn good. As interest grew, the /b/ board caught wind. Due to the show's varied facial expressions, it lent itself well to caption and reaction images, and began to spread. By the end of the first season the "bronies" became one of the largest, most active, and ambitious fan communities around.

MLP:FiM offers some of the best features of cartoons today:
  • High quality, expressive Flash animation which doesn't cut corners
  • Great storyboarding, scene transition, effects, 'cinematography'
  • Fantastic music, both full songs and incidental
  • Excellent voice acting from incredibly talented actors and actresses
  • Unique, well developed characters with flaws, motivations
  • Simple but effective plots that don't speak down to the audience
  • Life lessons often forgotten by advlts
  • A growing, imaginative fantasy world
  • Varied humor, from slapstick to satirical
  • Smart pop culture references, reaching back to the 50s and before
  • A creative, dedicated team of some of the industry's best at every level of production
  • Positivity!
The community's own contributions are many and varied:
  • Hundreds of artists, specializing in digital and traditional art, comics, wallpapers, vectors, etc.
  • Animators working on everything from 5 second GIFs to full length fan films
  • Videos editors and directors creating Pony Music Videos (PMVs), YTPMVs, spoofs (even anthologies over an hour long), documentaries, abridged series, etc.
  • Huge fanfiction community, with thousands of stories and millions of words written, with some stories fit to publish and some longer than the entire Lord of the Rings series
  • Voice actors of great talent, mimicking show voices or creating their own, in collaboration with editors and animators
  • Dozens of news sites, podcasts, blogs, radio stations, radio plays, livestreams, even social sites like Facebook
  • Merchandise like show-accurate plushies, repaints, molds, sculptures, shirt designs, just about anything
  • Probably the largest and best collection of musicians a show has ever inspired, with thousands of tracks spanning every genre, remixes and originals, vocals and instrumentals, who have put on four-hour long concerts at conventions, collaborated with the show's musicians, collaborated with each other on 50-song albums and 200-song remix projects, who will literally remix remixes of remixes...
  • Dozens of charity efforts alongside projects like Folding@Home and Humble Bundle, in collaboration with fan musicians and the show's voice actors, raising tens of thousands of dollars for cancer treatment, research, and third world efforts

Why do WE like the show?
Spoiler
I like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, because it is a show that I find to be a refreshing change of pace from the all to common modern style of cartoons where the humor tends to be based around repeat gags or simply displays of extreme stupidity from the characters as seems to be the focus of modern cartoon humor. I also find it refreshingly bright and cheerful by comparison to other shows that attempt to have episodes with mission based objectives where the characters have a set task that they must engage in as is also common in many other cartoons, mostly ones about superheroes or investigators/officers of peace, where the setting will often be unbearably dark, gray, and lifeless. In contrast the setting of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is full of color and life, which is especially apparent with the beautiful animation and the humor tends to be focused on wordplay and social awkwardness or misunderstanding which is underlined by the amount of detail that goes into displaying the feelings and thoughts of the main characters indicated by well done facial expressions, body language and the tone that the excellent voice actors of the show bring to the table.

All in all I feel it is the attention to detail that bring the little things together to make one greatly fleshed out show that makes it great for me, I could also mention many other things that make the show great in better detail such as the music, the continuity between episodes in those rare cases where it is called for and the feel of character progression, but I will leave the rest to others, or you could just give the show a try (at least 4 episodes before you judge it) and let you see and judge it for yourself.

When I first saw My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, I did not know what to make of it. I watched the first episode of season 1 and felt hooked to the characters. They are not one dimensional like most protagonists in other cartoons. Each character has an archetype, yes, but the way they interact with the world and other characters around them seemed different and refreshing. Another aspect I appreciate about the show is it's attitude. It is girly of course, however it sets itself apart from other girly shows in the way of subtle humor, interaction, and story/plot (some episodes can be predictable but are often entertaining nonetheless). MLP:FiM does not try to be a dark and edgy cartoon with so much drama seeping out of every crevice. It is a cartoon with a wholesome message and a bright tone to it. I also love the talented and giving nature of this fanbase that I'm happy to be apart of. Sure, every fanbase has its crazies who can be polarizing. However, this fanbase is so huge that your bound to find artists and fellow fans who you can admire.

My advice to starting with the show is to go in knowing that the target audience is for little girls and that will be the primary atmosphere. Most going into MLP:FiM will have this mind set; "What's with the hype"? Try to go in with only reasonable expectations as the show is not for everyone. What becomes surprising (at least in my opinion) the more you watch is when you compare it to other little girl shows. That is where my genuine love for the show comes from. It's a girls cartoon. But it's a good girls show. I do not watch it for the irony just because I'm a straight man. I watch My Little Pony because I can relate to some of the characters, I love the writing and animation, I love the fandom it has introduced me to, and I love that it just makes me happy.

~The Tamriel Terror


I like my little pony: friendship is magic because it is reminiscent of older television shows in the fact that it does not have only one major conflict, but multiple smaller ones that build into one that leads to an uplifting end. There is also an outstanding user community that make plenty of amazing pieces of art and wonderful stories. It has also given me an escape from my everyday life full of judgment and ridicule for the sake mental well being. I would probably be extremely miserable and feel as if I had little to no support in this world if I never embraced the community.

If I were to explain every single reason why I love this show and our fandom, I would run out of space, so it's a difficult task for me to make a short summary about this. Let's not dwelve too deep into it.

The show is amazing, I love the characters, the universe, the animation, music, story, voice acting, basically everything. I pretty much totally agree with what The Tamriel Terror said about the show. I'll leave it at that, since I'd have to be writing an essay if I wanted to explain why the show is so great.

If we look away from the actual show I love the fandom and our fanfics, art, music, videos et cetera (I love reading MLP fanfics when I haven't got anything else to do). The bronies create lots of contents themselves, so when the season is over (like now) there is never a dull moment because of all the great fan-made content that keeps us busy when the seasons are over. We are such a dedicated and passionate fanbase, I just love it.
The bronies and the creators of MLP have a very good connection, and we have been able to influence the show on our own (for example making Derpy a reality, and having several references of the fandom in the actual show). One of the things I really love about canon and fanon is that they kind of go hand-in-hand. The backstories us bronies have given to the "unimportant" background ponies, have altered their personality and traits in the actual show, giving them more character and depth. Another thing that is important about our fandom is that some of the people involved in the show is so fascinated by us that they've decided to partake in the fandom themselves. Some notable persons are Tara Strong, John de Lancie and of course Lauren Faust herself.

So basically I genuinely love both the show and it's fanbase. Another thing I would love to mention about the fandom is that nothing makes me more happy than seeing crossover/references to older TV shows and games I remember as a kid in the art/videos/games from the bronies. It reminds me that many of us have shared similiar childhoods, and ended up in this fandom together. I know it sounds kind of cheesy but it makes me really happy. When I see references to games like Majoras Mask etc I squee on the inside.

I love being a brony, and not just because of all the cool things I mentioned above. Together we've been able to achieve great things, and we've donated lots of money to charity, which is just fantastic. Being a part of this fandom is amazing, and I've met lots of cool people.

I love having MLP and ponies on my mind, and they follow me wherever I go. The world would definately look more gray if I hadn't discovered the show. I'd say that discovering the show and meeting you guys have been one of the greatest decisions I've made, and it have changed me as a person and made me more happy and positive in general. I really hope we'll be spending a long time together. :smile:
And as usual I feel bad for not having mentioned more stuff, which is why I hate writing summaries!

I love My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic for many different reasons. A lot of people today say that the cartoons of their youth were so much better and they can not stand the crap they put out for children today. Generally I agree with this statement, but as me and tgl1992 have said before, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is like a "lost" 90's cartoon. The show just lets me retain some of the childhood I knew and loved watching so many shows for hours on end. However this is not the only reason, as there are many more. Another reason is the fandom. Sure there is a dark side to this fandom but isn't there always a dark side to any fandom? The images of http://www.gameinformer.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer-Discussions-Components-Files/14492/1856.my_2D00_little_2D00_pony_2D00_friendship_2D00_is_2D00_magic_2D00_brony_2D00_samurai_2D00_applejack.jpg with characters that I remember from childhood cartoons, comments on pony videos that have references to a lot of awesome shows like http://img.ponibooru.org/_images/307882f833384611d787cd118c4b11e6/27262%20-%20applejack%20spongebob_Squarepants.JPG and http://e621.net/data/sample/b4/9a/b49a8b4f3c258c96a668f7a23a6eb5c0.jpg?1329360384 make me chuckle every time I see them, or even just amazing http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/363/0/0/007bc7cf8d10a38786e9336f20ff6cd6-d4klhsn.png or http://www.fimfiction.net/story/1888/1/My-Little-Dashie/My-Little-Dashie that tug on my emotions. That is nothing to say of the actual http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m238n8Y3531rtpeoco1_500.gif in the show itself. The http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzsxfO7dBlA in the show are just amazing. As are the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5YfYtZ32d4 from the fandom. The fact that so many people care about this show and will make art, spend money on toys, watch the new episodes every Saturday as soon as it comes on is just inspiring to me and I can honestly say I'm glad I turned from a hater to a Brony.

The first time I saw anything about MLP:FiM was on these forums, I didn't get why a bunch of advlts (I still don't know but now I'm enchanted by the ponies due to their charm :tongue: ) where becomming fans of it. So I semi-watched a couple of episodes but it was watching clips on YouTube is where the ponies started to take hold. Then one day at a Wal-Marts near you I came across the ponies in the toy isle. I thought if I just bought one maybe I can understand it more--------three months later I now have over 20+ ponies and pretty much seen most of season 1 & 2 :D.

~dark reaper


I was too young for the first My Little Pony shows in the 1980s, but back when My Little Pony Tales came out back in the early '90s, I was at least close to the target audience, and I loved it, particularly for its interesting characters and focus on regular life. Friendship is Magic not only captures those two again, but adds in a more interesting setting and a larger cast. It can get a little too over-the-top sometimes, but then again, occasionally it's better that way. It does a good job, almost all the time, of balancing funny and serious moments, of accepting its target audience as being intelligent without going too far over their heads, and of showing our society that femininity is neither weak nor something to be feared, even if you don't have to take part in it yourself. Most of all, it says something about the dedication the people making this show have had to every moment they've put into it that, after two seasons and fifty-two episodes, that there have been only a handful I disliked, and absolutely none I've hated.

I tend to stay on the edges of the fan community, but to see so many willing to stand up to potential ridicule for something like this is definitely heartening (even those who had been the ones to ridicule the franchise before - there's been times when it's deserved the ridicule, sadly, and in any case I can forgive them now. :wink: )

I never really been much of a hater of anything, to be honest. So if someone liked a show or anything, but I thought it was "different" that they liked it, I just kept it to myself. But of course, I was curious! But lets not get too far. Let me back this up a bit: I was a 90's kid. I know everyone that had a childhood always says they had a great one if it was the 60s, 70s, ect. but from the internet and school, I have concluded that the 90s was the best, if not last, great era of anything when it comes to pop culture, music and shows. I was such a fan of so many good shows on Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Kids WB (FFS, I remember when MTV was actually Music!). I know I grew up and most people that do tend to fade away from the stuff that made up their childhood (Pokemon was 90% of my childhood!), but there are still some decent shows that are a break from the now unbelievably crappy sitcoms and crime dramas, but even stations like Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon is very bad right now. Sure some shows are keeping it alive (Adventure Time and advlt Swim is keeping Cartoon Network alive and Legend of Korra is keeping Nickelodeon barely alive), But other shows that are dragging it down like stereotypical live actions shows and cartoons that are under strict regulations of the overhauled FCC over the past years. All this pretty much factored me into just watching sports and nothing else since all cartoons, sitcoms, and any other genres out there are very very bad right now. 2008 to now is pretty rough times for me. I'll admit, I wanted to do something "bad" to get away from it all and not have to wake up to another day again. But I got over it and just hung in there. I am a "Forever Alone" guy but like to keep it that way with only internet friends and families (IRL of course :tongue:) so i stuck with the forums and pvssyd up a storm, hence how you see me with 10k+ posts since 2010! But from being on the forums, I noticed people with pony avatars. Finally, I discovered what it was after someone posting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egrlzkKa6O8 in the Skyrim forums. At first I thought it was a movie and some people really liked it, but then realized what it was. Like I said before I kept my opinions to myself but got curious. I kept coming to the MLP thread and visiting My Little Brony on Memebase, so I thought "Well, I guess it is time". In January, I caught up with all episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and proud to say that I became a Brony and my first new Episode was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGuJDfJSUec. But my VERY FIRST episode that I watched washttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhR8u6C6aig. I am glad I chose that one (I was randomly choosing) and that got me liking the characters, plot, everything! Like Gheart said, I consider it a "lost" cartoon of the 90s (Even the fact the creators were the ones behind Samurai Jack, Power Puff Girls, etc.). Even the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNrXMOSkBas is what cheered me up and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ssl1RxwMWNA&feature=related that are just down right http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbhGhET4JN4&feature=relmfu I can really relate to Fluttershy on how http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXSHNzyqh3M she is but get her riled up, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwp60eYuie0&feature=relmfu Even all the different references to shows and memes it does, I dont want to link them all (Theres too much!) Joining the Skype group was the next best thing I did, they are like a second family to me! Gheart being the silly Texan that he is, Ergin, Tdroid and Embret are the three crazy Norwegians we love. Hellmouth the cranky drunk uncle, Frodo our favorite troll (Come on, you have to admit!), Lady-Mara the lady of the group, Dragoonofdeath the...well Dragoon :tongue:, and Rohugh the cuddly bear cub...dude...man thing....a just Rohugh :D Sure there are others but those are the regulars on Skype (even though it is unfortunate we lost a member to something I was close to doing few years ago.).

tl;dr? I love you guys and love this fandom and love MY LITTLE PONY: FRIENDSHIP IS FREAKING MAGIC!!

I didn’t originally like the show. Believe me, I was just like you, non-brony who may be reading this. I couldn’t see what all the hype was about. A friend linked me to an episode, but I felt silly watching it. ‘This is for little girls!’ I thought, and closed the video. Then one day I was bored, and was open to any activity that might waste a bit of time. I still had the link to the first episode. ‘Maybe I’ll give it an honest go,’ I thought. ‘I’m alone in the apartment so no-one will know.’ After two or three episodes, giving it a fair chance to win me over, I was hooked. I’d even picked out a favourite character. I decided to watch the rest of the episodes at some point, and I started posting about what I was doing in these here pony threads. I was welcomed enthusiastically into the herd, and I’d soon caught up with everyone else.
My advice would be to give MLP a go. Watch the first four episodes, give it an honest chance. It might seem a bit sugar-coated and silly at first, but it’s colourful nature will grow on you, compared to all that dark and depressing rubbish elsewhere on TV. You’ll appreciate the amazing voice acting and animation, might even discover a favourite character, and hopefully, just hopefully, MLP will become just like any other show you watch. Join the herd now!

Helping to kick off this thread with some older music. And by older, I mean it's a 50's style song remixed and released last year, with a nice little PMV attached.

Oky. I do have a question. I've been wanting to get the My Little Pony Mobile game but don't have any type of service what I live so I was wondering if I could find a way to download the game onto my computer?

I do know a way of getting an App from the computer and onto the phone easily and such. Just need to find how to get the game itself onto my computer first.

So I have a request. I would like the following to be added to the videos section of our thread starter. I find it encapsulates the fandom perfectly; a brony making an excellently animated PMV of another brony's remix of a different group of bronies' song from a spin-off series (Friendship is Witchcraft) inspired by MLP: FIM.

That's okay. My imagination can provide cringeworthy possibilities. Nice to know I wasn't coding wrong. Thanks.

If it is true (At this rate, I think it is), it may not be so bad if we give the show a chance. Who knows, maybe he will be d'aww worthy in the long run :3

Win.

~Edit~

In other news. Apparently some people at (A place that is apparently blocked if I say it) are currently modding the leaked version of Fighting is Magic to add-in Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy.

Do you think these people will be able to succeed? Or what they do will fail in an epic way?

Really? This makes me more cautious.

If he remains sapient and the whole dog thing is only a cover to make him fit in, okay. I don't know why they couldn't have gone with a younger brother of Twi and not a pet, though. If they actually make him a regular (if purple) dog, I give up. That would be extremely disrespectful to the character, and I wouldn't be able to trust the show to do right by the others either. At that point I'd only try it if reviews are positive. If the show's visual design is what it's rumored to be, I'll be waiting for reviews anyway.

I otherwise share Hellmouth's sentiments. That'd at least be worthy of YouTube clips.

Rarity: Twilight could you do something with your dog here.
Twilight: Well---looks like Spike is going to be taking a little trip to the vets for the Bob Barker treatment.
Spike: Whimper.... :(.

Dammit Hellmouth now I'm going to have to watch Equestia Girls to see if that happends :P.
