Dear lord I still do not understand this though. It always comes up as a reason why the show is "good for adults" but its the basest, cheapest form of adult pandering.
That video always struck me as fake, at least somewhatXBLA thread on its way to a regular Ponies thread fast.
Now where is that youtube vid where someguy confesses to his father via Skype that he's a "Bronie".
But it wasn't started with the idea of having a male fandom. it was just supposed to be little things to notice when watching it. one of those "hey, that's from 'The Big Lebowski', I get that reference and its funny because its in a show about ponies and i didn't expect it". it ended up pandering, but it didn't start that way and it seemed organic
Haha, well that's pretty much the biggest reason. If you like shows like Adventure Time, Regular Show, SpongeBob Squarepants etc I'd suggest you gave it a try. Those are all kids shows that keep adults in mind and kinda exploit the nostalgic feeling adults usually get when they watch cartoons from their childhood. But if you're not into cartoons at all you won't like it.Dear lord I still do not understand this though.

Persona 4 and My Little Pony are comparable now?Perfect.
Meh, even before it became pandering it still would seem...lazy? This kind of humor is something I've had problems with for years before MLP came around, and its just kind of a collusion of two things that annoy me when people point to it as an example of "how the show can be for adults"
If I was the leader of the world, all bronies would be sterilised. Or maybe only those that have the rule 34 of them.
But seriously who would buy this?
I have an eight year old daughter who loves MLP. Not every MLP fan is a brony.But seriously who would buy this?
well, it isn't meant for adults. things are not meant to be specifically for one group, and only that one group. its more because its reminiscent of cartoons when they didnt become "lol so RANDUM XD" like most things are now on Cartoon Network, its just an enjoyable cartoon, and some people get enraged about it, as seen in this thread
I'm confused. Do bronies like MLP ironically or genuinely?

Wachu sayin bout advanture time and regular show
This is still a thing?
Who would have thought it would last this long.
oh god don't give them ideas
I was referring to things like Chowder, Flapjack and Amazing World of Gumball. I've heard those shows are good, but haven't gotten around to watching them. no shit was meant to be flung in their direction, just at the 3 I mentioned above
How come Care Bears aren't popular like Ponies? They're basically the same thing.
What the shit Gumball is amazing, what madness do you speak. Also chowder and flapjack haven't been on for years so.

These items are going to make my lifedifficult.AWESOME
Those 2 shows were the reason I stopped watching cartoon network, so I've missed a few things. is it actually good? from the trailers it seemed to be unfunny, but i never gave it a shot
It has begun
Adventure Time and Regular Show are probably the two best new cartoons to come out in a loooooong time. At least since Spongebob started. But AT and RS are way more modern. They use a lot of internet slang etc. Also, april fools episode (kinda NSFW).
Sorry, but that's a really low quality model. I have seen far better fan works. Propably due to constraints but no thanks.So Microsoft has jumped on the Pony bandwagon with a bunch of pony stuff to purchase in their store for your Avatar. Hoodies, Shirts, and even a pet Dash.

I know this will probably get a lot of hate, but still pretty cool if your an MLP fan. Too bad I don't own an Xbox. I may have to head on over to my sister's place though to check it out for myself.
Well, I mean, my favorite animated show on right now (aside from the Venture Bros) is Gravity Falls because Gravity Falls is really cleverly written, relying on a rapid-fire mix of wordplay, absurdism and self-aware satire instead of falling back on "hey remember this thing you adults like that you don't normally see in a kids show! Its amazing that we also like the things you like!"

Chowder is, IMO, an excellent example of a deliberately aimed at kids show that adults can enjoy also, not as straight up funny as GF but very well done.
...but I really wouldn't compare it to MLP at all.

Flapjack was pretty good too. At least I thought so. Spongebob is still my favorite American cartoon though.

Dude, Gargoyles.Yeah well, MLP is not nearly as good as Gravity Falls. Then again, Gravity Falls is probably the best cartoon Disney ever had on their channel.
Now they're taking our Avatars? Is nothing sacred?
Dude, Gargoyles.
Why is sonic still popular.
The answer to that question is the answer to your question.
I never could get myself to like Flapjack. I don't know, it just seemed weird for the sake of weird.
I don't think they ever showed that in Holland. At least not when I was a little kid (I'm 22 now).Dude, Gargoyles.
Dude, Gargoyles.
I suppose it's better to say that Gravity Falls is the best comedy cartoon Disney has ever had.
Even then, it's got some serious competition.
Surprising quality as of late?
Isn't Avatars not going to be in Xbox 180?
Kind of funny they are doing this as I dont think Avatars are transferring to the Xbone are they?
