Dude I'm so glad you posted this. I just heard about this show yesterday from my YouTube subscriptions and I am now OBSESSED! I've been watching as many of the episodes that I can on YouTube and am familiar with the whole "brony" phenomenon, a term where guys 18-40 or so follow the show and related topics. I was going to post my own article about it till I saw yours. I am fascinated by this whole trend where certain "girl" shows become popular with boys and absolutely loved Rainbow Brite as a kid. I also love Laren Faust's other works including Powerpuff girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. I don't know what it is about these shows but they are ADDICTING! Maybe it is the art style (which has evolved as I feel nothing for the original My Little Pony cartoons), the big eyes, near anime-ness or the quirky dialogue and actions of the characters. The 80s were a much more conservative time and you can see in MLP:FIM that they tackle more risque subjects such as insanity (love it when Pinky Pie goes temporarily loopy in Party of One). Yes the shows have "girly" themes and some naeuseating cuteness but overall these shows rock! Having Asperger's I prefer things like cartoons and fantasy to anything with "adult" themes (I don't even really like kissing in shows). In some ways I think it's wierd to like stuff like this but I beleive in being a unique individual and not a puppet like everyone else and I don't care.

Oh and Pinky Pie? Best character ever. There are all sorts of YouTube clips of her, even a 5 minute one of her crying, which I find strangley fascinating...


Welcome to the herd, dude! Its a really addictive cartoon. You can't stop watching xD
I agree on pinkie pie, shes awesome!

Word up, brony. Like I said from the beginning, is the best show since the Powerpuff Girls. Watching this show is like playing Metroid. In the beginning we all thought that Samus was a guy, but all this time it was a girl. And we still played the games. Pinkie Pie is awesome, nice, fun, and creepy at the same time. I love her. And is only a matter of time they turn this show into an kemono(anthropomorphic animal) anime. Let's just hope is not anything like Powerpuff Girls Z.
