Very odd as it might seem I have grown to like the series considerably over the past week. Despite however being rather skeptical to watch in the first place because it didn't exactly appeal to my interests as I'm sure you can imagine. However after hearing plenty of good things about it decided to try it out. It was surprising very good with better writing then you will see with most cartoons anymore with nicely done characters and had a oddly additive charm to it. Its actually rather adorable without becoming nauseating, genuinely enjoyable, humor that isn't just for little girls, and while the central plot for many episodes have been used plenty of times in children shows (which is not necessarily a bad thing depending on the theme) does this without turning into a mindnumbing cliche.

Which to say that is there anyone else that enjoys the series and thoughts/discussion on the show itself (be it good or bad).

Watching the pilot now. Will post my thoughts over the next 45 minutes.

UPDATE: Pre-credit exposition is like a jRPG plot. Was somewhat lost. Oh well. Theme-tune now stuck in my head. :sadvaultboy:

I've never watched and never will since...well it's not in my priority list and I don't think it broadcasts over here anyway :shrug:

Wat.

Is this for real!?

It rocks, see my avatar.

Was wondering how Twilight Sparkle could turn pages with her hooves, but her horn is magic and can manipulate stuff.

Wait, is she a pony or a unicorn?

She is a unicorn pony just like fluttershy and rainbow dash are pegasus ponies.

Umm. This thread reeks of estrogen and day-care.

Thank you for the clarification.

LOL at Spike.



Then take your testosterone elsewhere! :verymad:

:lmao:
That video was pure awesome. I would totally play a My Little Pony open world RPG made by Bethesda.

I had no idea there was a My Little Pony show (no longer get cable), and I can't say the premise appeals to me... But I might watch the pilot also, just because.

EDIT:

oh god


the ponies are coming

The Bronies have arrived.

We should all have My Little Pony Avatars.



:D

[censored] yeah my little pony. Much as I doubted I'd be saying this 6 months ago: This has quickly become my favourite modern cartoon, by far.

For the undecided: For the love of Celestia, don't judge it based on the older generations. This one is built to appeal to the parents of 12 year olds, not just 12 year olds. It's actually a legitimately good show!

Indeed. One that's also caused a massive rift in the userbase of that one place.

Loved it before it became so trendy, following Lauren Faust and such... I'm bloody glad I'm not a hipster and obliged to hate it now. :shifty:
Aaaanyway. I never thought that MLP would come back into focus, twenty years after it annoyed me for the first time. And that it finally could be good. Imagine that.

Can I still be a Brony, without Y chromosome? Does the dyke thingie help? :whistling:

:blink:

I've been seeing people gush over it for months now. It's quite real, and has a very substantial following at this point.

I haven't watched it myself, but I will say that both the name and events surrounding Derpy Hooves (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=422909) amuse me greatly.

The pilot itself is a bit lackluster mainly introducing the characters. The series does however get a lot better after ep. 3 and would start on episode 4 and see if you like it from there.

Almost half way through pilot.

LOL at ponies listening to thumpin' dance music.

I think "Bro" is gender neutral anyway at this point, so absolutely.

Alright, then bump, bump, sugar lumb rump!

Nah, I can't watch stuff out of order.

On to episode two now.

I just found papercraft of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy.
